Qing Shiyu nodded. With a gentle grasp of her jade-like hand, the spiritual energy within her palm transformed into the power of Myriad Methods, surging and rolling. “I haven’t been idle during these days of cultivation,” Qing Shiyu said with a smile. As a Pure Yuan spiritual entity, she had an innate affinity with spiritual energy. During her time on Lingjian Mountain, she had access to an abundance of cultivation resources. Moreover, Su Chenyang, Master Siyin, Su Xuanye, Yuwen Yi, and other prominent figures of Lingjian Mountain would occasionally seek her out to offer guidance. This not only broadened her horizons but also greatly benefited her.

The group headed towards the peak where Su Xuanye was located. “Here we are,” a voice rang out, and in the next moment, Ye Wushuang was grasped by a giant hand and lifted to the summit. At the top of the mountain, on the edge of a cliff, Su Xuanye, Yuwen Yi, Master Siyin, and Su Chenyang were already waiting. Upon seeing Ye Wushuang, they all bowed in respect.

Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “Thank you all for guiding Shiyu these past few days.” Yuwen Yi scratched his head and laughed, “You’re joking, my lord. Qing Shiyu has an extraordinary talent and is a Pure Yuan spiritual entity. With the aid of some spiritual pills crafted by Master Siyin, reaching the Myriad Methods Realm was a natural progression.”

Yuwen Yi then looked at Ye Wushuang and asked, “My lord, have you not yet broken through to the Myriad Methods Realm?” “Yes, I’m still a bit short of the mark,” Ye Wushuang replied. Su Xuanye chuckled and said, “My lord has his own plans and considerations. Why worry unnecessarily?”

“Alright, let’s get down to business!” Master Siyin spoke up, her tone as cold as ever, though her appearance remained as enchanting as usual. “The Heavenly and Earthly Gates have appeared in the Qingzhou Continent, at the border between the two dominant powers, the Tianji Mansion and the Shengdan Sect—the Wujian Mountains!”

With a flick of her finger, Master Siyin conjured a map before them. The map clearly displayed the geographical locations of the major powers and secondary forces in Qingzhou, as well as the rivers and mountains. In the central part of Qingzhou, the territories of the Shengdan Sect and the Tianji Mansion stretched vast and wide, one to the south and the other to the north. Between them lay a mountain range, as vast as the Qingyun Empire, marked on the map.

“This is the Wujian Mountains,” Master Siyin explained. “The Wujian Mountains are inherently a perilous place, serving as a natural barrier between the Tianji Mansion and the Shengdan Sect.”

“The appearance of the Heavenly and Earthly Gates within the Wujian Mountains will undoubtedly add to the difficulty,” she continued. “According to the information we have, the major powers and secondary forces have already set out to gather intelligence around the Wujian Mountains.”

“This time, the Heavenly and Earthly Gates… are also very different from the past!” Different?

“The two gates have merged!” Master Siyin said gravely. “That is to say, cultivators from both the Heavenly Gang Realm and the Myriad Methods Realm will enter through a single portal. However, this merging of the gates is not a true union.”

With a wave of her hand, Master Siyin condensed spiritual energy into two portals. One portal was positioned above the other. She explained, “In the past, the Heavenly and Earthly Gates stood one above the other, which is also the origin of their names.”

“But this time, the appearance of the Heavenly and Earthly Gates…” she continued, pointing with both hands. The two portals began to move, one rising and the other descending, until they merged. However, the merged portals did not overlap completely; they remained at different heights, separated by a small distance.

This subtle change puzzled the top-tier figures of the major powers, who were already confused about the Heavenly and Earthly Gates. They only knew that crossing through the portals involved unpredictable dangers and immeasurable treasures and opportunities that could change one’s destiny. Beyond that, they knew nothing!

How were the Heavenly and Earthly Gates opened? Who opened them? Why were there such treasures inside?

After a moment of contemplation, Ye Wushuang spoke up, “This somewhat resembles… the **void saint space** condensed by those at the level of **Saintly Heaven Realm**!”

Saintly Heaven Realm!

Su Chenyang and Master Siyin’s faces changed instantly. Su Xuanye and Yuwen Yi, on the other hand, raised their eyebrows and exchanged glances, both puzzled.

Su Chenyang murmured, “Saintly Heaven Realm, the strongest level on the Tianyuan Continent—our lord was once at this level!”

“Individuals at this level are exceedingly rare… If it truly is a void saint space condensed after the passing of someone at the Saintly Heaven Realm level, then… it’s not hard to understand why there are such vast amounts of heavenly treasures and various opportunities within the space of the Heavenly and Earthly Gates!”

“However, a person at the Saintly Heaven Realm level, someone whose mere footstep in the central land of the Tianyuan Continent would cause tremors, how could they possibly…” Ye Wushuang quickly interjected, “I’m just speculating; we’ll only know for sure once we actually enter.”

Master Siyin then said, “My lord has made up his mind, and we know we can’t change it. However, there are some things we must make clear to you.”

“Oh? What is it?” Ye Wushuang asked curiously.

Master Siyin slowly looked towards Su Xuanye and Yuwen Yi. Su Xuanye immediately said, “This time is different from the Hundred Nations Martial Contest. Among the seven major powers, the true young talents and peerless geniuses will all be involved.”

“There are a few whose talents… are indeed terrifying. My lord should be cautious,” he added.

Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “Do tell.”

“First, there’s Li Bu Fan from the Li Clan. He is a core disciple of the Li Clan, very young, and already at the third level of the Myriad Methods Realm. Moreover… he is a fourth-level spiritual array master!”

“Of course, the so-called third level of Myriad Methods is just what the outside world says. No one really knows the true strength of this young man.”

“We received news from our Lingjian Mountain that when he first reached the first level of Myriad Methods, he was only nineteen years old. At that time, he was ambushed and attempted to be assassinated. He single-handedly killed ten cultivators at the fourth level of Myriad Methods!”

Upon hearing this, Ye Wushuang raised an eyebrow. Reaching the third level of Myriad Methods from the first level might not be too difficult for a genius, but to defeat someone at the fourth level was indeed extraordinary. Moreover, ten of them!

“Li Bu Fan… I seem to have heard of him,” Ye Wushuang said, scratching his nose thoughtfully.

“The brother of Li Bai Fan!”

“Oh!!!” Ye Wushuang suddenly realized. “Now I remember. If that’s the case… then I’ve really offended him deeply, haven’t I?”

After all, his brother had died at Ye Wushuang’s hands. How could Li Bu Fan not seek revenge for his younger brother?

Su Xuanye continued, “Li Bu Fan is just one of them. The Li Clan also has Li Qing Yao, Li Bai Feng, and Li Yan Ran. None of these three are likely to be weaker than Li Bu Fan, and some might even be much stronger.”

Yuwen Yi took over, “Apart from these four well-known young representatives of the Li Clan, there might be even more terrifying figures within the Li Clan. After all, as one of the dominant forces, they must have some hidden aces up their sleeves…”

“Moreover, aside from the Li Clan, the peerless heavenly geniuses from the Shengdan Sect and the Tianji Mansion are perhaps the ones you should be more cautious of.”

The Shengdan Sect and the Tianji Mansion harbored the strongest intentions to kill Ye Wushuang!

Ye Wushuang was intrigued and said with a smile, “Tell me more about the geniuses from the Tianji Mansion and the Shengdan Sect…”
