Chapter 584: Chapter 584: A Sigh
In addition, as the foremost figure in the current world of righteous cultivation, Yang Tian has proclaimed in Dabie City the removal of the Ghost King Sect from the list. How could they defy that?
As for another challenge, it is the Sword Sect!
You are right!
Previously, Shenjian Gate was just one of the Four Great Sects. But with Yang Tian now present, how dare Gongyang Yun and others regard Shenjian Gate as one of the Four?
Some even suggested that the Divine Sword Sect should replace the Ghost King Sect and become the first among the new triad of the Divine Sword Sect.
Of course, all this depends on Yang Tian’s will, and all clouds will gather around it.
Upon hearing this, Yang Tian merely murmured, "To the north lies the Shura Sect. The Ancestor is old, but with the opening of these Four Gates, he shall inevitably grasp the northern power."
As soon as he said this, the crowd was startled, envying Solomon with mixed emotions.
With Solomon’s current strength, he could at best be a third-rate sect, yet now he enters one of the Four Gates by mere luck!
At this point, someone immediately relayed this news to Elder Xu waiting outside. Upon hearing this, Xu Menzhu was stunned, followed by a surge of ecstasy and sighs.
Fortunately, the Shura Sect has become one of the Four Great Sects. His new gatekeeper too is rising amidst the tides, vying for supremacy with Lu Haisheng and Tuoba Wenqing.
"The Immortal Battlefield? Is that so?"
Upon hearing Yang Tian’s words, Gongyang Yun and Duan Nong suddenly showed bitter smiles as if they had anticipated it!
Seeing this, Yang Tian suddenly furrowed his brows slightly.
But on the other side, Di Hai immediately explained: "My Lord, this is it. After the sect gathering, the Demon King’s battlefield becomes the most crucial resource of these three battles, so they’ve already prepared for your departure."
"Where are these resources? What do you mean?"
Yang Tian asked, puzzled.
Di Hai said: "The battlefield of the Ghosts, like the old Upper Realm’s battlefield of the Fairies and Ghosts, is unknown to many, and the number of fallen Fairies and Ghosts is countless," these things aren’t of much use to the Upper Realm, but to cultivators, they are invaluable!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Tian immediately understood.
Why are the Three Sects so powerful?
Is it that the Spiritual Domain is richer than the other four domains?
Or are their natural resources and treasures more abundant?
Of course not!
Though the spiritual energy is rich, and the heavenly gifts and earthly treasures are abundant, this merely gives these three clans more practical advantages over others, yet they can’t contend with the rise of some proud Heavenly Emperors and world monsters!
But from ancient times to now, the stature of the Three Sects has never been shaken by anyone!
Is it because other clans do not take pride in sons of heaven and demons?
No.
Precisely because the Three Sects control the God and Demon Battlefield, the most abundant resource in the Cultivation Domain!
By studying the relics of celestial bodies, one can extract celestial elements to stabilize the great thoughts of the Dao.
With crippled Immortals, they can be transformed into divine weapons at a lower cost!
This way, the three clans can ensure that the arrogant heirs and undying evils within their clans far surpass those of other clans, thus dominating the entire Cultivation Kingdom!
So before Di Hai came to the sect’s great meeting, he had mentioned the secret competition among the three within the sect, fearing it was indeed this Immortal Battlefield!
Yang Tian, as the preeminent figure in the Cultivation Domain, brought up going to the God and Demon Battlefield, which was naturally foreseen by Gongyang Yun.
Indeed, just as Di Hai and Yang Tian were speaking, Gongyang Yun had already bowed and said, "My Lord, the battlefield of the Immortal Demon Realm lies at the Immortal Ridge at the center of the Divine World. We have three of them..." Long before the sect’s meeting, we were prepared, and now we will open it in two days!
"Two days?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Tian nodded slightly and said, "In that case, two days later, you may head to the battlefield of the Fairies and Demons in all your glory."
"Yes!"
Gongyang and Duan Nong immediately nodded.
...
That night.
Yang Tian temporarily resided at the mountain gate left by the Ghost King Sect.
The Jianling Sect and Qingling Sect returned to their respective clans, waiting for the Immortal Battlefield to open in two days.
Everything seemed calm, yet no one knew how many undercurrents lay beneath!
Outside the Jianling Sect’s Mage Court gate, Elder Duan Nong of Jianling Sect saw the injured Li Yicai slowly walking out. Just as his front foot stepped out, Xiao Dao Cheng didn’t know since when he was standing at the door, looking at him with a complex expression.
"How is the lord?"
Xiao Dao sighed and asked Duan Nong.
"The True Yuan has collapsed within him, unconscious, he believes he was hurt by Ingot’s blade, but he should recover soon!" Duan Nong shook his head.
"Injury to the Primordial Spirit?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Dao Cheng’s face turned grim.
The Primordial Spirit is fundamental for practitioners, more critical than heart and skull.
Cultivators derive great power, maneuver the spiritual of heaven and earth, and even cultivate without the need for the Primordial Spirit!
And damage to the Primordial Spirit means its foundation!
The power dwindles rapidly, and for those heavily affected, if they continue in their path, it will be wasted.
Thinking of this, Xiao Dao Cheng immediately turned his face, painfully saying: "I never thought this child would be so ruthless in the beginning" This... this is the ruin of my Jianling Sect."
"What reason is there to linger in a life-and-death battle?" Duan Nong calmly said.
Seeing Duan Nong say this, Xiao Dao at first seemed a bit surprised, then suddenly lowered his voice and gently said: "Brother Duan, would you listen to such an order to return to Yuan Tianhong?" Not only is he a monster, but he’s also ruined my Sword Spirit Sect. Can you tolerate it?"
"Hmm?"
With these words, Duan Nong became silent.
Two days later.
At the center of the Spiritual Domain, the Immortal Ridge shook violently, suddenly rising into the sky. Even the three forbidden formations arranged in the Spiritual Realm could not completely block this fluctuation.
At the first rise and fall, several people flew simultaneously from the three families toward the Immortal Ridge.
These people moved quickly. Clearly, they were the strongest of the tribulation period!
Soon, their figures appeared high above the Immortal Ridge.
Among them, a young man with black clothes and black hair stood expressionless in front of everyone, but all the visitors kneeled before the young man, chanting in heavenly honor!
That’s right. This man is the first in the world to defeat Li Yicai by the sect’s grand meeting and vigorously push forward the Ten Thousand Sects. Now, he stands as the first in the cultivation realm, returning to Primordial Venerate Yang Tian!
Beside Yang Tian, Di Hai and Su Youu stood on either side, like the grand protectors of Buddhism.
As for the elders of the Sword Sect, they did not know where to go.
"Heavenly Honor!"
After everyone kneeled and worshiped, the Qing Dynasty Emperor Gongyang Yun and Elder Duan Nong of Jianling Sect glanced at each other and immediately stepped forward. Gongyang Yun said to Master Yang Tian: "Please come to the center of this energy fluctuation to see if the entrance to the God and Demon Battlefield has opened!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Tian immediately took a close look. Indeed, at the center of the column of light formed by the energy wave, there was a golden thread, more dazzling than the surrounding light. It quivered constantly, revealing all the light forming the column.
"Is this the entrance to the Immortal Battlefield?"
Yang Tian felt the aura emanating from the golden thread, breathing slightly, silently asking.
"Yes!"
