Yuwen Yi continued, “Firstly, the Shengdan Sect. Although the Shengdan Sect is primarily known for selling elixirs, all seven of its elders are exceptionally skilled elixir masters!”
“Haha!”
Upon hearing this, Master Siyin let out a soft chuckle beside him.
Yuwen Yi coughed and added, “Ah… of course, compared to the esteemed Master Siyin, they are far inferior!”
“Under the Shengdan Sect, the cultivation of talents is not confined to any particular mold. Elixir masters are one aspect, and formidable geniuses are another. The most recently renowned figures are Sheng Feizhan and Sheng Feixia. We don’t have much information about these two, but it is said that the original number one genius of the Shengdan Sect, Dongfang Yu, was utterly defeated by them in separate duels.”
“Additionally, there is Dan Yongye from the Tianji Mansion. There is very little information about this young man, but his strength is extraordinarily formidable…”
Both the Shengdan Sect and the Tianji Mansion have harbored a deadly intent towards Ye Wushuang. During the time of the Qingyun Empire, they suffered the heaviest casualties, and they would definitely not let this go.
“From the Juxian Sect, there are Jian Xunxue, Sima Chuchu, and Shang Tianqing. These three are also extremely terrifying presences.”
“Then there is Taiqing Yao from the Taiqing Palace. This young lady is both intelligent and beautiful, and she is an extremely capable candidate for the position of the Grand Master of the Taiqing Palace.”
Yuwen Yi chuckled and said, “Although several young geniuses from the Taiqing Palace have perished at the hands of Lord Ye, if Lord Ye could make Taiqing Yao fall in love with him and become infatuated, I think the Taiqing Palace would probably not hold a grudge against him.”
Siyin, Su Chenyang, and Su Xuanye all looked at Yuwen Yi with strange expressions. What kind of thought process did this guy have?
Yuwen Yi coughed again and continued, “Within the Tianyuan Dynasty, there is also the extraordinary genius, Crown Prince Tianyuan Dong. He is the ninth in line and a strong candidate for the next emperor.”
After mentioning these figures, Yuwen Yi added, “Of course, the individuals I have mentioned are the top geniuses and prodigies among the six major powers, the cream of the crop among the young generation of Qingzhou. However, this time with the appearance of the Heavenly and Earthly Gates, it is not just the young generation. The older generation, those at the Heavenly Gang and Myriad Methods levels, although limited by their talents and achievements, have immersed themselves in these realms for many years, and their strength might be even more astonishing than these geniuses!”
This was the most crucial point!
The young heavenly geniuses had sufficiently powerful talents, but their combat experience might not compare to that of the older generation of Heavenly Gang and Myriad Methods cultivators.
This was not the same as the Hundred Nations Martial Contest!
Ye Wushuang smiled and said, “I have a general understanding. As you all know, I am not one to provoke trouble. If they do not provoke me, I will not provoke them.”
“The focus of this trip into the Heavenly and Earthly Gates is still to find the few treasures needed for Chenyang and Shenghao. We will just have to see what luck brings us!”
“Alright!”
After giving Ye Wushuang some more advice, the group dispersed.
The next day, early in the morning, the sound of bells echoed throughout the heavens and the earth within Lingjian Mountain. Soon, in a vast martial arena of Lingjian Mountain, figures began to gather. They were all cultivators at the Heavenly Gang and Myriad Methods levels from within Lingjian Mountain. The crowd was enormous, numbering in the thousands. However, this was not even all of the Heavenly Gang and Myriad Methods cultivators within Lingjian Mountain.
As one of the dominant powers in Qingzhou, Lingjian Mountain had at least two to three thousand cultivators at the Myriad Methods level, and nearly ten thousand at the Heavenly Gang level! In comparison, the Qingyun Empire was insignificant.
Gathered here were close to two thousand Heavenly Gang and Myriad Methods cultivators, a mix of the younger and older generations. Master Siyin, Su Xuanye, Yuwen Yi, Yan Ling, Mu Yeyun, Rong Siyan, and Shi Wuheng, the six mountain masters, stood calmly at the end of the arena on a tall stone platform.
Ye Wushuang, Qing Shiyu, Li Wenbo, and Su Jinyue were all together. Li Wenbo chuckled and said, “Qingzhou hasn’t been this lively in a long time. Compared to this, the Hundred Nations Martial Contest is just child’s play.”
Su Jinyue also expressed her anticipation, “I wonder how many people will make it back alive this time.”
Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but ask, “How long will the Heavenly and Earthly Gates remain open?”
“For about half a year,” Li Wenbo explained. “Within that half year, in the otherworldly space of the Heavenly and Earthly Gates, the casualties will be very severe, with nearly a fifty percent death rate…”
Nearly half! This was indeed incomparable to the Hundred Nations Martial Contest!
In fact, it was not hard to understand. Many of the warriors heading there were stuck at the peak of Heavenly Gang or Myriad Methods, risking everything for a breakthrough!
Some of them would spare no effort!
Another part could break through the peak of Myriad Methods but chose not to, hoping to enter the Heavenly and Earthly Gates to seize an incredibly powerful opportunity!
There were all kinds of people, and it was precisely because of this that the journey to the Heavenly and Earthly Gates was extremely dangerous!
Master Siyin stood before everyone and said directly, “This time, the Heavenly and Earthly Gates are different from before. Remember one thing when you go!”
“No matter what, you are all from Lingjian Mountain. Only by sticking together can you survive.”
“To kill each other for the sake of treasures and opportunities is simply despicable!”
Such things had happened before.
Master Siyin continued, “I have said my piece. From now on, it’s up to you!”
“Everyone, let’s go!”
Immediately, various flying creatures took to the skies, and figures climbed onto their backs. Then, with a flap of their wings, the flying creatures soared through the clouds, past Lingjian City. The scene was truly spectacular.
Master Siyin led the six mountain masters and set off as well.
Riding on the back of a Qingyi Leipeng, several pavilions were built sturdy. Even though the Qingyi Leipeng was extremely fast, its back was incredibly stable.
Ye Wushuang and Li Wenbo, along with other high-ranking members, stood on the back of the Qingyi Leipeng with Master Siyin. The core disciples of Lingjian Mountain were also there.
Li Wenqing, Ji Ou, Mu Zili, Jiang Yihan were all present.
In addition to them, there was one more person.
Qin Mu Yu!
Ye Wushuang finally laid eyes on the number one core disciple of Lingjian Mountain.
Qin Mu Yu was dressed in black, with a tall and upright figure like a sword. His face was sharply chiseled, and the sharpness and coldness in his eyebrows and eyes were very prominent.
This guy was very quiet. When the core group chatted together, he just stood there without saying a word.
At this moment, Ji Ou came to Ye Wushuang and chuckled, “Junior Ye, we are all core disciples of Lingjian Mountain. If we meet inside, you cooperate with me, and I guarantee you will make a fortune!”
Mu Zili teased, “Ji Ou, Junior Ye has not yet reached Myriad Methods. Once he does, you might not be his match. Won’t you be at a disadvantage by cooperating with him?”
Ji Ou immediately curled his lips and said, “Go away, you don’t know anything!”
“Junior Ye, after losing to you last time, I went back and trained hard. I might reach the third level of Myriad Methods soon, and I will definitely beat you then,” he said.
Li Wenbo laughed and said, “You were probably scolded by your master for a few days, right? Training hard? How can you say that with a straight face?”
As soon as Li Wenbo finished speaking, he felt a chill run through his body.
