Chapter 562 - Convergence
Chapter 562 Convergence
From the horizon far away, a roar sounded, as if it thundered in the hearts of the crowd. The people who had lower level of cultivation bled from their noses and mouths. Even Jiang Run and others felt that their internal pneuma was unstable and their blood was shaking.
After only a short while, four magnificent palaces with completely different pneuma appeared above everyone’s heads.
All the practitioners were shocked at once, and they gave up a large open space. Su Li and others retreated aside and calmly watched the four palaces fall.
“They are the top holy sects!”
Huo Shichun’s pupils shrank suddenly, and he exclaimed in a low voice.
“Are these the top four holy sects?”
The disciples of the Jiguang Sect were absent-minded. It was the first time that they had seen the top holy sects, so they were too surprised. The four people of Wanjian Sect were also surprised. While Jiang Run and the other eleven people had seen such a great scene in the Blood World, so they didn’t show any expression although they were amazed at the mighty pressure of the top holy sects.
Huo Shichun saw that and couldn’t help sighing with emotion in his heart. They were worthy of the holy land. Except for Lord Qingshui, none of inherited disciples in the sect could rival these twelve youths.
Squeak—
At this moment, the green and shining palace gate on the far left suddenly opened, and a cold-faced youth with full of evil thoughts stepped out from it. When he glanced at the practitioners, a chilling evil thought escaped and then disappeared in an instant.
Behind him, many green-robed elders flocked to follow, with respectful expressions.
The Chief Great Holy Boy of Ankui Valley, Qu Qingning!
“He is the holy boy of Ankui Valley. It is rumored that he is more than 1,900 years old. He can rival his peers with his poison power. He has been silent for thousands of years since he returned to sect after the Bloody Accident of Holy Spirit. His cultivation base is unfathomable!”
Huo Shichun secretly transmitted his sound in silence to Su Li and other people from Juecheng City. After all, in his understanding, the news of Juecheng City was too limited. It was always good to talk more about the common sense of Qingshui Circle.
Jiang Run and others did not reach the core of the Linli building, but they were really amazed and couldn’t help but nod.
Su Li remained calm and raised her brows slightly.
“Does he enter the second test of Qiyu Xuangong?”
She naturally knew the bottleneck and details of the mental method of Qiyu Xuangong, because she had disguised as Mr. Li in the Reincarnation Mirror to learn it from Ling Qinglan.
People must first overcome the seven tests before practicing it. The first was desire. When she saw Qu Qingning in the ancestral land of Ghost Clan, she realized that he was no longer a virgin, but there was only a female pneuma entangling him. He controlled himself pretty well.
It was much easierto practice Qiyu Xuangong as a high-grade method in Reincarnation Mirror. As her eldest brother could master this method, the Reincarnation Mirror contributed a lot.
Now this method showed up as a top-grade mental method in the Qingshui Circle. In the past few years, Qu Qingning had actually stepped through the first test and reached the second test—evil thoughts.
The so-called evil thoughts were thinking about doing evil all the time, which could arouse the wrath of heaven. Nobody knew how Ankui Valley suppressed it.
Su Li’s eyes flickered slightly. The top holy sects were really powerful.
At this moment, in Shengxian City, a white-haired old man with the robe of Ankui Valley walked hurriedly to Qu Qingning. He saluted and smiled, “Your Highness, I have been waiting for a long time.”
Qu Qingning snorted coldly, “Tenth Elder, you didn’t show up until I waited for a while. How dare you?”
The white-haired old man’s complexion changed slightly. He had long heard that the Great Holy Boy’s power was progressing rapidly, and he had entered the second stage. He was very grumpy, but the old man did not expect him to have such a bad temper.
Before Tenth Elder thought of a way to deal with it, the most luxurious and magnificent palace gate of the four palaces opened slowly. Then two rows of beautiful and dignified maids walked out and stood silently on both sides. A white-skin and delicate woman came out with golden skirts which was shining with unknown invincible might. A group of old women followed behind her, and their pneumas were terrifying.
Such a wonderful woman astounded the audience as soon as she appeared, but the coldness and indifference in her eyes made many practitioners afraid to look directly at her. So, they looked away.
This woman was the Great Holy Girl of Huangxing Hall—Yin Xuetong.
“The holy boy of Ankui Valley is still so disgusting.”
As soon as Yin Xuetong appeared, she began to ridicule Qu Qingning, and her words were not polite.
Qu Qingning laughed instead of being pissed off. He turned his head and grinned, “Yin Xuetong, I am definitely clear about who you are. The pot calls the kettle black. How dare you laugh at me?”
Yin Xuetong was calm, and her reaction was not intense. She seemed to have long been used to Qu Qingning’s counterattack.
“You two have quarreled for a thousand years. Haven’t you quarreled enough? Aren’t you tired of that?”
In the third palace, simple and ancient, Fang Mu reluctantly walked out with the powerhouses of Tianhe Sect. He was still that handsome youth with red lips and white teeth. He was leisured, and his energy was looming ahead. In the years after his eldest brother Fang Yuan left, he became a mature man completely through many hardships.
“Brat Fang Mu, don’t be the peacemaker!”
Qu Qingning frowned, “It’s been a thousand years. Aren’t you still immersing in that dream? Silly boy, you are as stupid as your eldest brother, and your Tianhe Sect...”
“Great Holy Boy, watch your words.”
Before Qu Qingning finished speaking, the highest-ranking elder behind him immediately came out to stop the wrangle. The Tianjiao Battle was about to begin, and disputes were not allowed now. The grievances could be left in the Tianjiao Battle as well.
“Of course, I know that. You don’t need to remind me!”
Qu Qingning’s expression turned gloomy. With a flick of his sleeves, he swaggered into Shengxian City without waiting for the people from Shengtian Shrine to come out.
First Elder sighed secretly when he saw it without any expression. He put away the palace and led their men to follow Qu Qingning.
“Ankui Valley is also a top holy sect. How could there be such a rude holy boy?”
“It is said that after that incident, his temperament changed drastically.”
“That’s it.”
...
Some people in the crowd were transmitting the sound in silence to talk secretly, but when the gate of the last black palace opened, there was dead silence immediately.
Tread...
The sound of footsteps approached, and a stern young man in a tall black robe walked out of the darkness. Every step of him seemed to be measured, which was extremely accurate. The invisible mighty pressure of him instantly spread to the whole field. The elders and disciples of Shengtian Shrine who followed him were even more in awe and came out together.
“He is coming! He is the top talent in Qingshui Circle, the Great Holy Boy of Shengtian Shrine! Although there wasn’t a battle in Shengxian Mountain during the last rating of Tianjiao List, this guy ranked first on the Tianjiao Listundisputedly because of his outstanding record. He is known as the Lord of Evil, Ling Li!”
Huo Shichun transmitted the sound which shocked everyone.
“Three days and three nights were not long enough to count up his deeds! If he hadn’t showed up, Shengtian Shrine would never have been the top holy sect firmly. There were so many talents who were killed by him, even the talents of the top four holy sects were no exception!”
“It is even rumored that this person is indifferent and ruthless! Although there are a number of beauties in his palace, he does not like children. Anyone of the beauties who were pregnant would be put to death immediately! The one in the Bloody Accident of Holy Spirit was even killed by himself... Lord of Evil is frightening!”
Jiang Run frowned when he heard it, and couldn’t help but transmit the sound, “How could such an inhumane evil practitioner reach the top? Didn’t the holy sects care about that?”
Huo Shichun shook his head and laughed, “Boy, you are still too innocent. Shengtian Shrine is originally an evil sect. Where is the difference between the good and evil in this world?”
Jiang Run was speechless for a while.
These talks would never reach Ling Li’s ears. He glanced indifferently at Yin Xuetong’s expressionless face and Fang Mu’s strange face, and then withdrew his gaze. He put the palace away in his sleeve, and walked into the city.
“Such a boring man.”
Yin Xuetong muttered. Waving her hand, she also led her subordinates to walk into the city one after another.
Fang Mu, who was the last one, was full of sadness in his eyes. But soon, he recovered, igniting the fire of fighting spirit, and said in his heart, “Ling Li! In the Tianjiao Battle, I want you to know that cruelness and unrighteousness are not the right way definitely!”
Su Li narrowed her eyes and said nothing.
She thought, “What difficulties do you have? You let Buwang go out and suffer rather than let him by your side, and you even painstakingly created the situation and spread so many untruths.”
While Su Li was thinking, Huo Shichun stepped forward to hand out the official document and called others to walk into the city.
When Su Li saw that, she stopped her thoughts and stepped quickly to keep up with them.
After entering the city, Huo Shichun led the crowed to the largest inn in Shengxian City—Tianyake Attic.
There were mostly holy sects’ residences in Shengxian City. There was no one else who could open chain inns in the city, except for the most mysterious intelligence force in Qingshui Circle.
“Landlord, we have booked a court.”
Huo Shichun came to the counter and handed in the token. The cultivation of the landlord of Tianyake Attic was no less than his. Tianyake Attic’s strength was evident.
“It turns out to be the elder of Jiguang Sect.”
After the landlord took the token, he showed a kind smile immediately. Then he glanced at the young disciples behind Huo Shichun. There was surprise in his eyes, and he couldn’t help but clasp his fist,
“It seems that Jiguang Sect is expected to go further this year. I congratulate you in advance.”
“Ha-ha, it’s hard to tell.”
Huo Shichun couldn’t help laughing. He knew that Lord Qingshui was here, so it was sure of getting the position of holy sect. But it was not appropriate to show off now.
However, after he said this humble remark, someone really retorted.
“It’s really hard to say. Your Jiguang Sect are all good-for-nothings. How dare you attempt to get the position of holy sect?!”
As soon as these words came out, everyone of Jiguang Sect immediately looked angry and looked back all together. Even the smile of the landlord of Tianyake Attic faded a little.
Su Li looked back, but saw a group of practitioners wearing the same charcoal gray robes stepping into the inn together. The number of young disciples was not less than a hundred, far more than that of Linli Building!
When Huo Shichun saw the lead old man with golden eyebrows, his hideous face suddenly became more terrifying, and he said in a cold voice, “Traitor! How dare you appear in front of me?!”
The old man with golden eyebrows smiled weirdly when he saw this, “Huo Shichun, you are still as superficial as before.”
“No matter how superficial I am, I am a still much better than you, a traitor who sold out his sect!”
Huo Shichun’s expression was bitter, and his eyes were full of murderous intent, “If we weren’t in Shengxian Mountain... After the Tianjiao Battle, you won’t leave here alive!”
“Shouldn’t I say this to you?”
The old man with golden eyebrows came to the counter with many disciples. He took out a shining token with purple flash from his hand. Then he glanced at the dim and dull general token in Huo Shichun’s hand and sneered, “You probably don’t know your Jiguang Sect will be destroyed, right?”
Huo Shichun’s complexion changed drastically when he saw the token with purple flash.
