Chapter 194: Chapter 104 You All, Come Together_3

Even if they lose their sect’s prestige, the support of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau is enough to compensate for it.

With that thought, two cultivators at the middle stage of Qi Transformation prepare to ascend to the arena.

Just then, a man with a large sword box on his back steps out from the Primal Chaos Tower. The sword box unfolds behind him, placing a flying sword under his feet. In an instant, he becomes a swath of sword light, standing atop the platform.

The sword light, wrapped with the Sword Qi, is unrestrained, leaving a long-lasting scar from the Primal Chaos Tower to the platform that can’t be shattered despite being washed by waves.

The man with the sword box stands on the platform, looking at the Black Tortoise Esteemed Emissary with an indifferent expression.

“Sword Casting Pavilion, Shang Yu.”

“It’s the Sword Casting Pavilion?”

“The Chongyang Baoguang Heavenly, one of the 36 Little Grotto Heavens and the keeper of the Ten Thousand Swords?”

“This fierce Sword Qi must belong to a strong mid-stage Qi-training cultivator.”

“Such a formidable cultivator, even among the 36 Little Grotto Heavens, isn’t common. Why would they come first to the high platform?”

Everyone inside the Primal Chaos Tower starts discussing. Then, a Taoist dressed in a sky-blue Taoist robe with a horsetail whisk in hand floats down from the tower. A cloud falls under him with a swish of the whisk.

This Taoist with a handsome face, looking like a True Being, slowly lands in the center of the platform.

“Xuanshen Dao, Yunxia Zi.”

“One of the 36 Little Grotto Heavens, the line of Taiyuan Xuanzhen Grotto Heavens. These are a few significant paths under the Taoist ancestral hall!”

“Yunxia’s transformation ability is a spell that Qi Training Stage cultivators can cultivate, another Qi-training cultivator.”

“Xuanshen Dao and Sword Casting Pavilion’s prodigy are battling? Is there a grudge between these two grotto heavens? Even if there is, it should not be solved at this Dao conference.”

The voice hasn’t even faded when a beautiful woman dressed in damask silk with a dignified manner descends from the Primal Chaos Tower. Each step she takes causes the celestial light to permeate, with faint signs of the Immortal Realm manifesting.

Like this, the beautiful woman in silk steps onto the platform, her captivating eyes seem to hold thousands of splendid blooms.

“Lofty Aspirations Sect, Wang Yuewen.”

“Red Tint Sky Heaven is one of the 36 Little Grotto Heavens and it is said to be connected to the legendary Immortal Hemp Maiden!”

“This is already the third grotto heaven, it can’t be a simple arena battle.”

Just then, another Taoist in an azure Taoist robe steps out of the Primal Chaos Tower. As he takes one step down, strange runes appear.

Like walking on flat ground, with each step he effortlessly traverses a hundred meters, as if disregarding the limits of space, and arrives at the platform.

“Mount Laojun, Mo Li.”

With Mo Li’s words, the entire Primal Chaos Tower bursts into utter chaos.

“The current prodigy of Mount Laojun, the future Taoist of the Eighteenth Grotto Heavens, Rongcheng’s Fine Jade Grotto Heavens.”

“The prodigies of the four major grotto heavens at the Qi Training Stage appearing, does it mean…”

The Black Tortoise Esteemed Emissary’s face looks unsightly, his sharp gaze questions the quartet:

“Are you four here to disrupt this Dao Conference?”

“Even though your Grotto Heavens have extraordinary potential, this Dao Conference is governed by all sects and desired by the public, surely your supported Grotto Heavens wouldn’t turn against the sects.”

On that huge platform, the prodigies of the Four Great Grotto Heavens stand in four corners. Mo Li stands with his hands behind his back, his distrubed look:

“The Dao Conference is ostensibly a joyous occasion, but with the Imperial Astronomical Bureau hosting, it’s no longer joyful.”

Shang Yu follows up coldly:

“If the Imperial Astronomical Bureau is a sect, that would be fine, but your backing is the Human Emperor Dynasty. How can they meddle in the affairs of our sect?”

Yunxia Zi from Xuanshen Dao has a faint smile on his face:

“A few days ago, the Imperial Astronomical Bureau was intimidated and disgraced by Sunn Lanyu of the Sunn Family and the Great Xia’s Imperial Court gave in to the Aquatic Tribe, leading to an even more rampant abuse by the Aquatic Tribe. With such capabilities, what qualifications do you have to preside over this sect gathering?”

Wang Yuewen of the Lofty Aspirations Sect is indifferent:

“Since this Dao Conference is to resolve sect disputes based on individual strength.”

“Let’s fight, whoever wins will host the Dao Conference!”

Each of their words mirrors their stance.

The grotto heavens they represent behind their backs have come here to compete for the right to lead this Dao Conference.

The Black Tortoise Esteemed Emissary’s face looks extremely unsightly. At that moment in the sky, a robust figure leaps down from a long-hovering crane.

Under the effect of gravity, the body hits the platform fiercely, as if a large bomb was dropped from the sky. The intense impact makes the entire platform shudder. Even large chunks of rock fortified with formations shattered under this onslaught.

Out from the deep pit formed by shattered rocks steps the White Tiger Esteemed Emissary, who had shown up in Yunfu Street. Ominous grin on his face, his gaze sweeps over the four Qi-training prodigies:

“To deal with you, does not necessarily require all four of us from the Imperial Astronomical Bureau. Just me and Xuanwu will suffice.”

“Pretentious fool!”

“I truly hope your strength is as strong as your tone.”

The powerful Divine Senses of the six Qi-training cultivators collide in an instant. The Elemental Qi drifting between heaven and earth is constantly stimulated under the Refinement Qi’s law, and the manifestations of Sword light, Celestial Light, and Phantom Beasts rise to the heaven, each refusing to give way.

Just as the six Qi-training cultivators are at an impasse, a streak of ice-blue light expands rapidly. The frigid aura spreads from the river under the Primal Chaos Tower, swallowing all the water areas including the platform, turning everything into an icy and snowy landscape.

Then, a domineering will forcefully suppresses all the Qi, and’ the heaven-reaching residues collapse instantly.

A tall beautiful figure dressed in a palace garb, having a frosty demeanor, slowly steps into the icy cene.

With her captivating eyes seemingly filled with natural apathy, even the six Qi-training stage prodigies on the platform failed to catch her attention.

“Who are you?”

The Black Tortoise Esteemed Emissary questions Gong Buyu, but doesn’t get any response.

She merely glances at the six Qi-training prodigies, her tone flat, devoid of any fluctuations:

“You all, come at me together!”
