The elders of Mingchi and others were instantly shocked!
The eighth level!
This directly surpassed them!
"This person's divine soul is actually so powerful that even his physical body can withstand the suppression of the Soul Tower. It is not difficult to see that this person's physical body attainment is also extremely high. Such strength entering my Xuan Sect adds a considerable boost to our sect." Ma Kaiyu said.
"If I remember correctly, the one who first entered the third and sixth levels was also this person. However, this person does not seem to be a spiritual master from our Shengyuan Continent. As long as this person engraves a spirit tablet, they can be greatly utilized by the Xuan Sect."
Fuyao Jin pondered for a moment upon hearing this, a hint of admiration appearing in her beautiful eyes.
Hum.
As Fuyao Jin finished speaking, several figures suddenly appeared outside the Soul Tower. Xi Chuyun was among them.
With the appearance of the crowd, the ten Saint Sons, including Yue Mingchi, all cast friendly glances at them. These individuals had all engraved spirit tablets on the seventh level, and their future achievements would naturally be extremely high.
Dong!
Dong dong!
Just then, a loud bell chime suddenly rang out. The sound was so great that those closest to it had to immediately circulate their spiritual energy to resist. Yue Mingchi and the other ten Saint Sons, who were closest to the Soul Tower, looked at the tower in shock.
The Soul Tower was enveloped in a golden radiance. Under the intense golden light, the nine levels of the Soul Tower were clearly revealed.
And on the eighth level, a figure in a green robe was clearly visible. Before this figure, a threshold staircase was slowly appearing.
"Who is this person? They actually want to ascend to the ninth level!"
"Causing such a great commotion, could this person have the strength to enter the ninth level!"
"The suppression on the seventh level is already extremely powerful, and the eighth level doubles the intensity. Now this person still wants to enter the ninth level. If they succeed, they might attract the attention of the Xuan Sect's high-ranking officials."
"..."
Seeing the changes within the Soul Tower, the crowd began to discuss animatedly. At this moment, they looked around and discovered that only one participant remained inside the Soul Tower who had not yet emerged.
"Greetings, Peak Master Yuan Bai." At the same time, Yue Mingchi sensed something, then flicked his sleeve and bowed towards the void above. Along with Wan Yuquan and the other nine Saint Sons, they all bowed respectfully and shouted.
Upon hearing this, everyone looked towards where Yue Mingchi was bowing.
A silhouette slowly appeared in mid-air. The subtle pressure they exerted caused everyone to quickly lower their heads with just a glance. Furthermore, the ethereal spiritual energy fluctuations made it difficult for them to discern the appearance of the newcomer.
Within the Xuan Sect, the Peak Master of the Fourth Peak, Wen Yuanbai.
"Master, are you here for this disciple?" After paying respects, Fuyao Jin excitedly stood up and asked Wen Yuanbai.
Wen Yuanbai's silhouette nodded slightly. "To be able to trigger the Soul Tower to ring the Awakening Bell is enough to show this person's extraordinary divine soul. Moreover, someone who can enter the ninth level, shouldn't that move me?"
"Master is also coveting them. This newly joined junior brother's divine soul is indeed extraordinary. Moreover, he was the first to enter the sixth level, and now he can enter the ninth level. With your guidance, Master, he will surely become the strongest Saint Son of our Rippling Peak!"
Fuyao Jin replied with a smile.
Xie Yushan's expression changed upon hearing this. Then, with a slightly bitter tone, he bowed to Wen Yuanbai. "Peak Master Yuan Bai, you must be reasonable. This newly joined junior brother previously chose the Langya Peak where my disciples are located."
Yue Mingchi and the others also let out wry smiles. Now that even Wen Yuanbai, one of the six great peak masters of the Xuan Sect, had appeared, it was evident that this person who entered the ninth level possessed extraordinary talent.
Furthermore, if Wen Yuanbai spoke, this newly joined junior brother would likely change his previous choice. Therefore, Xie Yushan's current words were indeed somewhat helpless.
"Such talent and not choosing my Rippling Peak? Jin'er, is what young fellow Yushan says true?" Wen Yuanbai asked, seemingly surprised.
Fuyao Jin also gave a wry smile, but still bowed to Wen Yuanbai.
"This child's divine soul is not weak, and joining my Rippling Peak will allow him to unleash his greatest potential. Nephew Yunshan, do you think what I say is correct?"
Wen Yuanbai fell silent for a moment after seeing this, then spoke again. Upon hearing this, Xie Yushan was momentarily speechless.
"Good for you, Wen Yuanbai! Who says this child must join your Rippling Peak to unleash his greatest potential? This child can withstand the suppression of the Soul Tower, so his physical body must be extremely powerful. By joining my Hongshang Peak and cultivating my Desolate Supreme Body Refinement Technique, he can also reach the pinnacle of Shengyuan."
Just then, a voice like thunder came from afar. As soon as the voice fell, an extremely powerful figure instantly appeared in the air where Wen Yuanbai was.
"We pay our respects to Peak Master Chengen." Hearing the voice, Yue Mingchi let out another wry smile, then bowed and shouted towards the approaching figure.
"This child's potential in reaching the ninth level of the Soul Tower can be compared to our Old Ancestor. In our Xuan Sect, no disciple has ever been able to enter the ninth level to engrave a spirit tablet. In my opinion, it would be more appropriate for this child to join my Junshang Peak. Of course, when the Old Ancestor's fighting spirit is revealed, who can rival him!"
"I sense a very sharp sword intent on this child, perhaps he is a sword cultivator. In that case, joining my Anshang Peak would also be excellent."
"You old fools, can't you have any shame? I heard that this child previously chose my Langya Peak! You old fools are trying to snatch my Langya Peak's disciple in front of so many disciples, do you take me as a decoration!"
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
As more and more figures appeared, Yue Mingchi and the others wore even more bitter smiles. Clearly, Yue Mingchi and the others had not expected that a newly admitted disciple would be able to attract the personal presence of five great peak masters of the Xuan Sect. They were even willing to throw away their dignity to snatch him.
However, regarding these five existences, Yue Mingchi and the others did not dare to interject casually. After performing their salutations, they all remained silent.
"This child's divine soul is so powerful, what is wrong with him joining my Rippling Peak?"
"No, no! This child's physical body is also powerful, he should join my Hongshang Peak!"
"Being able to contain sword intent within his heart, this child will be unrivaled in his future cultivation of the sword path!"
"The Old Ancestor's fighting spirit, how can these things be compared to it? Cultivating fighting spirit is the wise choice!"
"Since this child chose my Langya Peak, it must have been a result of careful consideration. Moreover, according to the rules of my Xuan Sect, once a choice is made, it cannot be changed. Unless I personally agree!"
"..."
As the five peak masters began to argue, Yue Mingchi and the other ten felt a sense of helplessness and lowered their heads.
"For the sake of one disciple, are you all disregarding your own status?" Just then, a hoarse and ancient voice, as if emanating from the highest heavens, instantly suppressed the arguments of the five peak masters.
Upon hearing this, the five men immediately fell silent, and then they all bowed towards the void above. "We welcome the Sect Master."
"Disciple welcomes the Sect Master." Yue Mingchi and the others also bowed respectfully upon hearing this.
The newcomer was dressed in a wide Confucian robe, his temples slightly gray, and his blurred face made it difficult to discern his features.
The newcomer walked through the air, then waved his hand. "All rise. This child is still within the Soul Tower. When he can use his divine soul to engrave a spirit tablet, the matter of choosing a peak will be discussed again. Everything will be based on this child's choice, and you must not interfere too much."
"We, respectfully obey the Sect Master's decree." Wen Yuanbai and the other five men reluctantly bowed in response.
As the voice fell, everyone's gaze turned to the ninth level of the Soul Tower.
As peak masters of the Xuan Sect, Wen Yuanbai and the others naturally knew how strong the suppression was that one had to withstand to engrave a spirit tablet on the ninth level of the Soul Tower. With the slightest carelessness, even with the strength of Wen Yuanbai and the others, it would be difficult to offer assistance.
However, Xi Chuyun, whose outcome was still unknown, was shocked and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Because the person on the ninth level of the Soul Tower was Li Xuan!
