Chapter 2304: Nine Cauldrons For the Champion

Edited by RED

Tiantai was now a genuine sect in the city!

The news astonished everybody in the Holy City. Four incredible Ancient Holy Clans had been destroyed by a mysterious group, and now Tiantai was rising in the Holy City. Many people were wondering whether there was a connection between those two things.

Cultivators really had the power to make things change if they were strong enough. Even though it was easier for them to destroy than to create, this time, Tiantai and Champion University could do something great. Creating a sect in a short time was no problem at all. These days, Tiantai had thousands of disciples. There were also many young people with diverse backgrounds who wanted to join Tiantai.

In only seven days, incredible buildings stood lofty at the top of mountains. There was a gigantic waterfall, forests, gra.s.s. Of course, they needed more buildings, a sect was like a small country. In countries, there were many small worlds, and if Tiantai wanted, they could also create their own small worlds.

On that day, Tiantai really started rising. Many people came to congratulate them… and many other people also came to see if anything bad was going to happen or not. Tiantai, a small group which had started in Champion University, now drew everyone"s attention in the Holy City.

——————-

There was a celestial flight of stairs, Emperor s.h.i.+ and Emperor Yu were standing there, their clothes fluttering in the wind. They both smiled.

Back in the day, they had created Tiantai in order to break free from the small world; they had done all they could, and had taken great risks. There were some disciples from Tiantai who they had never found again. They had the feeling life was just a dream. They had gone through so much.

They had never thought that someday, Tiantai would become a powerful group in the Holy City, a legendary place to people in the small world.

All their disciples were standing under them on the flight of stairs. They all looked extraordinary: brave, outstanding, and experienced, especially those standing just under them from the first batch, the direct disciples. Some people were already great emperors.

The air whistled as someone arrived.

It was a group of people carrying cauldrons. Eight people carried one cauldron, each cauldron seemed to weigh millions of jin.

"Those are strong cultivators from Champion University, great emperors!" Many people were astonished.

"Monarchic Battle Cauldrons." A strong cultivator from Celestial G.o.dly University frowned. His eyes glittered sharply.

"Indeed, Monarchic Battle Cauldrons," The people from Ancient University were astonished too.

"Monarchic Battle Cauldrons are symbols of Champion University, eighty-one Monarchic Battle Cauldrons have been created. People who receive Monarchic Battle Cauldrons have much higher positions than people who have their statues in Champion University or Champions. It"s a supreme honor. Even the Ancestors of Champion University haven"t received Monarchic Battle Cauldrons," murmured someone. Few people knew about the Monarchic Battle Cauldrons, so when they heard that, they all s.h.i.+vered.

The Monarchic Battle Cauldrons had an incredible meaning, so why had they taken them out today, the day of Tiantai"s inauguration into the Holy City?

There were nine Monarchic Battle Cauldrons, and great emperors were carrying them…

"Tiantai appeared in Champion University, but now they are not really part of the university anymore. They are a sect in the Holy City. However, there should be a link between them and Champion University. Champion University is giving them Monarchic Battle Cauldrons to tell everyone that Tiantai is important for Champion University, it"s almost a part of them," was many people"s opinion. Since when was Tiantai so important to Champion University?

"Champion University congratulates Tiantai," proclaimed a loud voice. Everybody in the Holy City heard the words.

Seventy-two great emperors were carrying Monarchic Battle Cauldrons, and they all congratulated Tiantai. However, they didn"t give the cauldrons as presents, they put them in nine different locations.

"Thank you very much, Champion University!" replied Mu Chen with a wide smile. He had never thought Champion University would be so kind to them. He was also astonished when he learned how important the cauldrons were.

"You"re too polite. We"re all here to congratulate you as expected," said a loud voice from the horizon.

A group of strong cultivators arrived. They all looked enigmatic and unfathomable: the Ancestors of Champion University! When the crowd saw them, they s.h.i.+vered. It was rare to see such people, especially at the same time, and now they were all here. What was going on?

"You"re too kind, Ancestors!" said Mu Chen. He was dumbstruck. He couldn"t believe his eyes. He hadn"t thought they"d come and congratulate Tiantai personally.

The other universities were stunned; why was Tiantai so important?

"No need to pay attention to us old people, you can continue," Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian smiled as he moved aside. Mu Chen and Emperor Yu looked at the crowd, their disciples, and then gazed into the distance.

"From now on, Tiantai is a sect in the Holy City!" declared Mu Chen and Emperor Yu loudly. They weren"t as strong as their disciples, but they were the founders of the sect. n.o.body dared say anything about that.

—

Lin Feng was among the other disciples, but he didn"t come out.

Even though a long time had pa.s.sed, and even though the probability that the Shrines had people in the lower world was small, he couldn"t show himself. He couldn"t give the Shrines an opportunity to find him.

But now everything was perfect: the Ancient Holy Clans who threatened him had been destroyed, and Tiantai had been created in the Holy City. Lin Feng was really happy.

Lin Feng knew some terrifying cultivators now. The Shrines remained vigilant. Lin Feng was convinced that the Shrines didn"t want to lose their people"s lives for nothing.

The members of the Fire Shrine wanted to use Qing Feng to find him, because she had accepted getting married to one of their members to help Lin Feng. n.o.body could refute her promise.

—–

The eight Ancestors glanced at one another. Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian stepped forward and said, "Today, we didn"t come just to congratulate Tiantai. We also came for Champion University"s students, for the ceremony of the Great Champion."

"Ceremony of the Great Champion?” The crowd was astonished. Back then, Lin Feng could have been a Champion, but he hadn"t, and now they wanted to declare him a Champion?

"Since Lin Feng was first and foremost one of Tiantai"s disciples, and he became a student of Champion University afterwards, now that Tiantai is here, we"ll organize the ceremony here. Apart from Lin Feng"s statue in Champion University, we"ll also have another one made of him for Tiantai. Is that alright?" Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian asked, smiling at Emperor Yu and Mu Chen.

"Of course it"s alright!" answered the two, shaking their heads and smiling. They were extremely happy. Champion University was organizing a Champion ceremony for Lin Feng!

"Good!" smiled Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian. In the distance, some people rose up in the air. A gigantic statue appeared. Many students from Champion University were behind it.

"Where should we put it?" asked Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian to Mu Chen.

"There, if possible," said Mu Chen pointing at the center of the main public square. He was a hero to Tiantai, so that place was perfect.

"Good." Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian smiled and waved his hand. Champion University"s students took the statue to the plaza center and slowly put it down. It was a hundred meters high.

Lin Feng smiled wryly. He hadn"t thought Champion University would do this…

"Today is the ceremony, there will be no Champion Crown, only Monarchic Battle Cauldrons. The nine Cauldrons are Lin Feng"s crowns!" said Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian. The seventy-two cultivators put the nine cauldrons in front of the statue. Lin Feng looked like a peerless and heroic warrior.

"Champion University officially announces that Lin Feng is the Champion, the King of the Continent of the Nine Clouds!" said Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian loudly. The crowd s.h.i.+vered. He had not said Champion University, he had said the Continent of the Nine Clouds!

The members of Celestial G.o.dly University, Ancient University, and Four Seasons University all pulled a long face. Some smiled coldly on the inside. King of the Continent of the Nine Clouds? How arrogant!

"How insolent!" spoke up someone instantly. How could Champion University decide who the King of the Continent of the Nine Clouds was?

Could Lin Feng be considered the King of the Continent of the Nine Clouds just because he had finished first at the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds?

Chapter 2305: Pressure

Edited by RED

Calling someone the King of the Continent of the Nine Clouds was a bit funny actually. The Continent of the Nine Clouds was extremely vast, who could be considered its King?

And now that Champion University dared call Lin Feng the King of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, it meant they considered everybody else beneath their notice!

Lin Feng was astonished too, he hadn"t thought they"d proclaim him as both Champion and King of the Continent of the Nine Clouds! But since they did it, he just smiled indifferently. It was just a t.i.tle on top of that, and Lin Feng didn"t really care about t.i.tles. Besides, Lin Feng was more ambitious than that; he didn"t care about being strong in the Continent of the Nine Clouds, he wanted to be at the very top, he wanted to dominate the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds!

However, Lin Feng was surprised because Champion University had dared call him the Champion of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, didn"t they care about the other universities? The other universities were angry about it, but Lin Feng didn"t care about that. His state of mind had changed, they didn"t scare him anymore.

"Tiantai is nothing. They"re just a small group of disciples from Champion University. Tiantai is a tiny group in the Holy City. Champion University organizing such a ceremony is a bit over the top, aren"t you afraid of losing your credibility?" spat a strong cultivator of Celestial G.o.dly University coldly. Celestial G.o.dly University also had an incredible cultivator: Chu Chun Qiu, but they didn"t organize such an ceremony for him! Of course, if Chu Chun Qiu came back to Celestial G.o.dly University, they would organize a great party, that was obvious.

"Does it have anything to do with you?" said Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian, turning to him. "Today, it"s Tiantai"s creation. Anyone can come to watch, n.o.body forced anyone to come. People who are here are here to congratulate them. If you don"t like what you see here, p.i.s.s off!"

The strong cultivator of Celestial G.o.dly University was astonished, and grimaced. Champion University and Celestial G.o.dly University were both universities in the Holy City, and Champion University was talking to Celestial G.o.dly University that way because of Tiantai, it was extremely humiliating!

"Good, Champion University, good! Of course, what you do has nothing to do with me. But I was just worried about you because everybody in the Holy City is going to make fun of you! Lin Feng is not even here, and not only are you offering cauldrons in his honor, but you"re also proclaiming him King of the Continent of the Nine Clouds! Don"t you feel ashamed? Your ancestors must be alive, have they ever been called King of the Continent of the Nine Clouds?" retorted the strong cultivator of Celestial G.o.dly University coldly.

The members of Celestial G.o.dly University were all staring at him. Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian said coldly, "Tiantai and Champion University are allies. If anyone dares insult and humiliate Tiantai again, Champion University will take it personally, and we"ll kill them."

Energies started building up with whistles. Everyone was astonished. Champion University dared act that aggressively in front of Celestial G.o.dly University!?

As expected, the strong cultivator of Celestial G.o.dly University shut his mouth. He couldn"t fight against the eight ancestors of the Champion University.

Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian turned around and the ancestors landed on the ground. They appeared in front of Tiantai"s disciples in a line.

"Lin Feng, Champion University proclaims you a King today," said Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian smiled.

Everybody was stupefied, was Lin Feng there?

Lin Feng?

Where was Lin Feng?

The crowd turned around and looked at the members of Tiantai. Was he in there?

Even the students of Champion University and many disciples from Tiantai looked for Lin Feng. Was he there?

"Lin Feng?" Some strong cultivators from various powerful groups s.h.i.+vered. If Lin Feng was there, it meant that he was there when the four Ancient Holy Clans had been destroyed! Back then, there were tensions between Lin Feng and them…

"Maybe the legends are true, that Champion University destroyed the four Ancient Holy Clans. They wanted to avenge Lin Feng because he"s now a disciple of the Fortune Shrine and he"s talented?" ventured some people.

Regarding the destruction of the four Ancient Holy Clans, those were details only known to insiders.

Lin Feng smiled wryly. He couldn"t hide anymore, his face changed and he raised his head, taking off his robe.

"It"s Brother Lin Feng, indeed! He looks just like that statue!"

"Brother Lin Feng, he"s back in the Holy City, and we didn"t know it!"

"How handsome. Just like the statue. And he looks extraordinarily strong!" The students of Champion University were amazed. Lin Feng was a member of Champion University, just like them. He had achieved so much, he had amazed the whole city back in the days, and now Champion University called him the King of the Continent of the Nine Clouds!

"That wasn"t necessary, Ancestor," said Lin Feng, shaking his head with a smile.

"You refused to become a Champion back in the days, now you"re a King. Isn"t it great?" Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian smiled. Lin Feng was touched and moved; the Ancestors were strong and with their support, Tiantai would face less trouble. Tiantai and Champion University could become terrifying groups in the Holy City together.

"Lin Feng." shouted someone at that moment. Lin Feng turned around and saw Ancestor Zhu Tian. Ancestor Zhu Tian said, "Back then, my sense of judgement failed me, and I failed to see how strong and talented you were. I feel guilty and ashamed. If I offended you back in the days, I"m very sorry. I"m happy that you"ve become the King of the Continent of the Nine Clouds now."

An Ancestor of Champion University was apologizing to Lin Feng publicly!

Champion University"s disciples were astonished. Was Lin Feng that strong, powerful, and influential already?

An Ancestor of Champion University was apologizing to Lin Feng publicly.

"Don"t mention it, those were insignificant things," Lin Feng smiled. He really didn"t take them to heart, and he had gotten rid of Ji Chang a long time ago. Now the Ancestor had apologized in front of everybody, Lin Feng couldn"t blame him for anything.

Ancestor Zhu Tian smiled in relief and nodded approval. "Lin Feng, I hope you"ll become the real King of the Continent of the Nine Clouds soon."

Lin Feng smiled, but said nothing. The ancestors already talked to Lin Feng like someone who had the same social status. Lin Feng had become that influential.

"Lin Feng is in the Holy City!" said someone at that moment. Many new people appeared. The Ancestors of Champion University were startled. Some of the most powerful cultivators of the other universities had arrived!

"It means that Champion University destroyed the four Ancient Holy Clans," said a strong cultivator at that moment.

"Champion University went too far," they said coldly. Lin Feng frowned.

"Tiantai is just a bunch of young people, and now Champion University is supporting them like this. But you"re only doing it because Lin Feng finished first at the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, and is now a member of the Fortune Shrine. You"re using your students to get closer to the Shrines. How shameless."

Those people sounded really angry, as if they were there to punish Champion University.

"Everybody, today is Tiantai"s inauguration day, can you talk about those things another time?" asked Mu Chen. The disciples of Tiantai all pulled long faces.

"Shut up! Who do you think you are to talk to me, you weakling!" said that person coldly. He released oppressive energies, which surrounded Mu Chen. Mu Chen took a few steps backwards.

"Hmph! You think that because Champion University helped you set up in the city center, you"re really strong? Don"t overestimate yourselves," said someone else. These people had come with a goal, to confront Champion University. These last few years, because of Lin Feng"s reputation, many geniuses had decided to study at Champion University.

Now that Tiantai had been established in the Holy City, Lin Feng"s influence was expanding even more. With Champion University, they could become too influential. It would have bad consequences for the three other universities!

Therefore, they wanted to put pressure on them. Of course, they couldn"t attack Lin Feng directly, verbally or physically, because he was a disciple of the Fortune Shrine. Therefore, they didn"t talk to him.

However, they didn"t know that by insulting Mu Chen, they had already infuriated Lin Feng. He could be patient, he could ignore a lot of things, but he couldn"t tolerate other people insulting his fellow disciples, teachers, family members… And the grat.i.tude he had for his two teachers couldn"t be described with words.

"The universities have access to more information than Ancient Holy Clans. Maybe they know things people don"t regarding the destruction of the Ancient Holy Clans," arose the whispers, especially those from other Ancient Holy Clans. They were happy to see that the three other universities put some pressure on Champion University.

"You"re insolent!" said Hou Qing Lin and the other disciples of Tiantai. They were furious. The direct disciples of Tiantai were all like Lin Feng, they couldn"t let anyone insult their teachers. They cared about their teachers more than about themselves.

"What? Tiantai, a new and tiny little group wants to see how strong they are in comparison with us universities?" replied one of them coldly. "Tiantai? We can easily destroy it! "

"Say that again," said a voice coldly. The crowd turned around and saw Lin Feng slowly rise up into the air. Lin Feng, the one who had ranked first at the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, hadn"t shown up in the Holy City for a long time.

Chapter 2306: Astonis.h.i.+ng Battle

Edited by RED

According to legends, back in the days, Lin Feng had fought alone against eight geniuses, and had crushed them. Back then, Lin Feng had killed Ji Chang. Back then, Lin Feng finished first at the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds and amazed the whole continent. Those were only some of Lin Feng"s achievements. People in the Holy City were still astonished by his deeds.

Now, Lin Feng was a disciple of the Fortune Shrine, and terrifyingly talented. His position had changed. No wonder Champion University attached so much importance to him and called him a King. However, from what the crowd could see, even though Lin Feng was extremely talented, twenty years had pa.s.sed since he had finished first at the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, and he had only become a Celestial Emperor. How could he fight against Saint Emperors? The strong cultivators of the Fortune Shrine weren"t going to come and help him!

But at that moment, Lin Feng rose up into the air and threatened some Saint Emperors.

The universities of the Holy City were much stronger than the Ancient Holy Clans. However, Lin Feng didn"t mind. He looked at that Saint Emperor icily, his eyes filled with murder.

The Saint Emperor frowned. Did Lin Feng want to die?

"Hmph!" that person grunted coldly, staring at Lin Feng, and said, "Why would I repeat myself? I don"t think Tiantai wants to see who"s stronger between them and us, anyway. Even though you"re talented, you"ll still need another thirty years at least before being qualified to stand in front of me!"

"Thirty years?" Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian smiled coldly. The eight Ancestors stepped forwards and released a terrifying Qi.

The strong cultivators who had just arrived were stupefied, staring at the Ancestors of Champion University. Would they dare fight against the three other universities?

However, the eight Ancestors of Champion University surrounded the one who had just insulted Mu Chen and looked at him coldly. The only person facing him directly was Lin Feng. Lin Feng released cold energies, and death strength surrounded him. Everything became grey around him.

"What"s going on?" The Saint Emperors of the other universities were astonished. It was so cold, their souls were shaking. The Death intent was penetrating into their bodies!

Lin Feng"s Death Dao filled the air. Black lights twinkled everywhere. The Saint Emperor"s face turned deathly pale and grey.

"Maximum level Dao, that"s…" his heart was pounding. How could Lin Feng"s Dao be at the maximum level? It meant that he met one of the requirements to become a Saint already!

Maximum level Dao! With the power of his mind, he could destroy whole cities in the blink of an eye!

Lin Feng took a step forwards, and two, and three. Each time he took a step forwards, the Saint Emperor heard a Funeral Bell clang in his head. However, he was a Saint Emperor, his vitality and intent were incredible and explosive, He started expelling the death strength from his body.

Suddenly, the Source of the Nine Netherworlds appeared and collided with the death strength. People on the ground were astonished.

"That"s Brother Lin Feng, he"s so strong. In such a short time, he"s able to fight against Saint Emperors!" The students of Champion University were astonished and amazed. No wonder he had finished first at the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds! He was terrifyingly strong and talented. Would he really need thirty more years to compete with the Saint Emperor?

It wasn"t over. A peerless king weapon strength emerged from Lin Feng"s body and condensed into a sword in the sky, and he infused G.o.dly strength into it. That sword vibrated and fused together with death strength. Lin Feng"s Qi surged, he used his full strength to condense that sword. n.o.body knew how powerful that sword attack was…

Path of a Cultivation G.o.d, forbidden strength, unmatched sword. It felt like the whole world was about to turn into a sword!

The Saint Emperor kept releasing Qi, but he was oppressed, and his Qi was weakening. The Ancestors of Champion University who encircled him were completely astonished. Was that Lin Feng"s own strength? He was already so strong?

Lin Feng"s robe was fluttering in the wind. People around didn"t look at him as a student of Champion University or a disciple of Tiantai anymore. With his strength, he could be the patriarch of a sect, or a great scholar respected for learning and integrity. His sword looked like the sword of a G.o.d!

"Thirty years, you really think too highly of yourself," Lin Feng said calmly. He looked like a G.o.d; the strong cultivator of Celestial G.o.dly University couldn"t believe it his eyes.

"Die!" said Lin Feng. He condensed the strength of the ten thousand things of creation in his G.o.d sword which streaked across the sky towards the strong cultivator of Celestial G.o.dly University. The strong cultivator of Celestial G.o.dly University shouted defiantly even as he sensed some cursing strength surround him. He couldn"t see clearly anymore, he didn"t know which side the sword was attacking from anymore.

Sword lights glittered in front of him; this was one of Lin Feng"s most powerful attacks. It contained all sorts of strength and had no weakness. It even diffused cursing and soundwave strength. When the Saint Emperor released an attack to protect himself, it was already too late. The crowd saw dazzling lights absorb the Saint Emperor and crush him, before he turned to smoke and dispersed.

Lin Feng was standing in the sky, looking like a G.o.d.

"Thirty years to compete with him?" repeated the crowd. How ridiculous! One sword attack and he had been defeated!

"From now on, one more sentence will be added to my university"s ranking list: Champion University offered nine cauldrons to Lin Feng, and he killed a Saint Emperor in one sword attack!" exclaimed some students of Champion University. They were very excited. This guy was their fellow disciple, and a peerless genius.

"Wait, wait, so the four Ancient Holy Clans…" the crowd realized suddenly. Lin Feng had come back to destroy his old enemies?

It was as if everything became clear all of a sudden. Brother Lin Feng had done that. Who was the mysterious army, though?

At that moment, the strong cultivators of the other three universities were trembling.

Lin Feng looked at them and said coldly, "Get down."

The strong cultivators of the three universities grimaced. How insolent…

However, they realized that Lin Feng had probably destroyed the Four Ancient Holy Clans, so they didn"t dare act recklessly.

"The universities have existed for a long time. Some of them are like some Ancient Holy Clans, they like to act arrogantly in front of other people," said Lin Feng evenly. A cold wind brushed against those people. What did Lin Feng mean?

"Get down." People from Four Seasons University descended from the sky, which made the crowd frown. Four Seasons University acknowledged Lin Feng?

After that, Ancient University also descended from the sky.

Lin Feng looked at the members of Celestial G.o.dly University and finally, they descended from the sky. The crowd looked at Lin Feng and s.h.i.+vered. Lin Feng had become so influential that he could put pressure on three universities! He looked like a conquering hero!

"Everybody, in the future, you better a.s.sess your own strength properly before saying anything you could regret. Even if a group has existed in the Holy City for thousands of years, they can be destroyed from one day to the next," Lin Feng went on patiently.

The universities and Ancient Holy Clans were all astonished, had Lin Feng truly destroyed the four Ancient Holy Clans?

"Tiantai is here now. Everybody else can leave," said Lin Feng indifferently. It was enough for the day. Lin Feng had also destroyed the four Ancient Holy Clans for Tiantai to rise in peace. Now, they would be unstoppable!

Some people left dispirited, some people left amazed. Some people stayed because they wanted to become members of Tiantai.

Lin Feng left. He had shown how strong he was already, that was enough. He had to be careful because the Shrines were looking for him.

—

Lin Feng went back to Champion University. In the celestial mountains, there was a woman, she looked aloof from worldly strife like a celestial being, she looked happy, relaxed, and light-hearted and yet slightly cold. She was practicing cultivation.

At that moment, she slowly opened her eyes and saw someone in the distance.

Chapter 2307: Ancient World

Edited by RED

Xue Baguio looked at Lin Feng, he looked familiar, but she didn"t recognize him. Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian was behind Lin Feng. He said to Lin Feng telepathically, "In order not to disturb her cultivation, I won"t make her remember the past. Her memory is getting worse and worse, she has no long-term memory anymore, and her short-term memory is also getting worse each day. But she seems to understand rules, and each time she senses she"s about to forget what she was just experiencing, she comes back here to practice cultivation."

Lin Feng was astonished and replied, "Does she practice cultivation faster and faster, though?"

If her memory was worsening, it could mean that she was practicing faster and faster!

"Indeed, she"s becoming really strong. As she acc.u.mulates strength in her body with time, she becomes more and more terrifying, but each time, her cultivation resets. Anyway, I have to admit the Selfless Scriptures are truly fearsome," said Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian. He was astonished. He had thought that Xue Baguio would remember everything after breaking through to the Di Qi layer, but she was already a Celestial Emperor, and her cultivation speed was unearthly!

"Some people in the outside world would be astonished by her cultivation speed," said Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian telepathically. Lin Feng nodded. Chu Chun Qiu"s speed was incredible already, but no wonder Xue Baguio was a reincarnation. She had forgotten her previous lives. That was an advantage compared to ordinary people who remembered their previous lives. However, during the first twenty years of her life, she hadn"t progressed quickly at all.

"She will probably remember who she is when she breaks through to the Sheng Di Layer. She might even even remember her previous lives," whispered Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian.

Xue Baguio looked at Lin Feng and said, "Who are you? Why do I have the impression that I know you?"

"I"m Lin Feng, we were good friends in the past," said Lin Feng, smiling at Xue Baguio. As expected, she had forgotten about him again!

"Lin Feng," repeated Xue Baguio. She whispered, "You look very familiar…"

Lin Feng smiled at Xue Baguio, "When you recover your memories, you will remember me."

"Alright," Xue Baguio nodded.

"Continue practicing cultivation so that you can recover your memories quickly," said Lin Feng calmly, before he and Ancestor s.h.i.+ Tian left.

Xue Baguio focused on cultivation. She remembered nothing. Since she had decided to study the Selfless Scriptures in her previous life, she had no choice now.

—

Lin Feng left the celestial mountain and went somewhere to meet Lang Ye.

"What"s wrong?" Lin Feng asked Lang Ye, who had just contacted him.

"An elder of the World Clan wants to see you," Lang Ye said to Lin Feng.

"Where?" Lin Feng was extremely surprised. Why would an elder of the World Clan want to see him? The World Clan was an ancient Clan. In the past, they used to be like the Snow Clan, but then something had happened to them and they had to hide in Dark Clouds. They didn"t seem to care about the outside world.

"He"s in Champion University already, where Tiantai used to be," said Lang Ye.

"Let"s go," Lin Feng agreed. What did that elder want from him?

—

When they arrived, Lin Feng saw the elder from the World Clan. He had the demeanor of a transcendent being, he had a very long beard, and a robe with the Eight Trigrams on it.

He glanced at Lin Feng, smiled, and nodded, "So young and you can already kill Saint Emperors, you"re extremely talented."

"No need to be polite," Lin Feng smiled back. "Have a seat."

"Alright," the elder nodded. He went on, "Lin Feng, we"ve heard about the things that happened to you in the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. Appearance of a Forbidden Body, the Shrines want to kill you, you"re the Shrines" first target now.""

"So the World Clan isn"t completely isolated from the outside world," Lin Feng noted, amused.

"The World Clan has been silent for a very, very long time, but we have always wanted to rise again. How could we isolate ourselves from the outside world completely? Nowadays, Lang Ye, who has a king-type body, is slowly rising. I hope he will become extremely strong, and he"ll help the World Clan come back to life," said the elder.

Lin Feng inquired mildly, "So the World Clan is eager to come back to life, will you come out of the mountains?"

"Indeed!" said the elder, somewhat eagerly. "We want to march into the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds."

"March into the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds!?" Lin Feng was astonished. The World Clan had been hiding for such a long time, had they acc.u.mulated so much strength already?

"Do those things have anything to do with me?" asked Lin Feng. He was curious. The World Clan had been hiding for a very long time, and now they wanted to rise again, so why were they looking for him? He had good relations with the World Clan, but he was not very important at the scale of the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds; his influence was limited there. On top of that, the Shrines wanted to kill him!

"The World Clan needs someone to support them. I would like to have you as an ally. If we go to the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds together, we"ll be able to gain a firm foothold and establish ourselves. Your disguise abilities are incredible, if you disguise yourself and go to the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds with us, you can pretend you"re from the World Clan. Wouldn"t it be perfect?" that person grinned knowingly.

Lin Feng"s eyes glittered. The World Clan wanted to help him. If he did that, he would be able to avoid some trouble there. As the World Clan had disappeared for such a long time, even if there was a very strong cultivator among them, n.o.body would find it strange…

"But that wouldn"t be useful for the World Clan at all?" Lin Feng didn"t understand why the World Clan wanted to do that.

"In the past your wife was extremely strong. Now you"re strong, we hope you can help us rise in the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds," the elder explained.

Lin Feng was surprised. The World Clan probably knew he was a Forbidden Person…

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Alright, since you are willing to do that, how could I refuse?""

"I can"t wait!" agreed the strong cultivator of the World Clan cheerfully.

Both of them smiled. They had an agreement. Lin Feng didn"t know how strong the World Clan was just yet…

He had already shown up in the Holy City. He couldn"t stay here for too long. Each time he met his friends, it was for a short, yet wonderful time.

n.o.body in the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds knew what Lin Feng had done in the Holy City, and even if some people learned about it, it would be too late already.

——————

In the Northwest Area of the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, the marriage alliance between the Fire Shrine and the Void Phoenix Clan was still fermenting. Everybody in the Northwest Area knew what had happened between Lin Feng and the Shrines.

Because of Lin Feng, all the Shrines had joined hands, and worse, the Fire Shrine had lost a Saint.

Now something extremely strange had happened in the Northwest Area. Suddenly, a new group had emerged. They were extremely strong, with an army of heroes. They instantly started competing with people from the Northwest Area, stealing resources and territories without the slightest scruple. But because they hadn"t become as important as other Holy Sage Ruler Clans, people didn"t really pay attention to them.

Something else drew people"s attention; a terrifyingly strong Celestial Emperor from the Demon Shrine was killed. All the Shrines paid attention to that news item because that Celestial Emperor was a genius and had a great reputation in the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. However, someone had killed him!

Some people were even amused because the family name of the killer was "Mo", a traditional family name in the Demon Shrine, and he had killed people from the Demon Shrine…

After that, some people said that the one who had killed him wasn"t famous, he was around thirty years old, and when he was only twenty, he was already terrifyingly strong. He had started practicing cultivation as an infant. His Dao strength was incredible. In another world, h.e.l.l, he was famous. He was from the h.e.l.l Shrine and in h.e.l.l, it was said that such geniuses only appeared every million years.

Now he was in the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds and fighting against other strong cultivators.

His name was Mo Zheng, the Demonic Punisher!

Edited by RED

Some geniuses of the Demon Shrine were killed by the Demonic Punisher. Of course, they weren"t going to leave the matter at that. However, since Mo Zheng the Demonic Punisher always killed people of the same cultivation level, the Demon Shrine couldn"t send stronger cultivators to kill him; he was from the h.e.l.l Shrine, after all.

But the Demonic Punisher couldn"t just leave it be. A Celestial Emperor of the Demon Shrine invited many people. Of course, he also invited Mo Zheng. The crowd knew why. On that day, many people went to the meeting point, Ancient Demon City"s Mo Jia"s Battle Stage. According to legends, the founder of the Demon Shrine was a Demon G.o.d, and he had fought on that battle stage. He had killed many, many people. He had become a symbol for many demon cultivators.

The Mo Jia"s Battle Stage was surrounded by eight flags; on each flag, there was a demon s.h.i.+eld and blood stains.

There were many strong cultivators around the battle stage, gongs clanged ceaselessly. It was quite lively. Many extremely strong cultivators were present.

"Xue Jing Xiao is with Di Chan now. He is a genius from the Snow Clan who is now a member of the Ice and Snow Shrine. Lin Feng went to the Snow Clan and defeated him. The First of the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds doesn"t have an undeserved reputation." Many people were looking at someone from the Snow Clan: Xue Jing Xiao. Next to him were Di Jiang and Di Chan, as well as some other strong cultivators of the Snow Clan.

"Brother Di Jiang, Brother Jing Xiao," called out a few people at that moment. They were from the Fire Shrine: Huo Xing Zi and Huo Shang.

"Brother Huo Shang, are you not preparing Huo Xing Zi"s wedding? How come you have time to come here?" asked Di Jiang with a warm smile.

"We"re not in a rush. Mo Fu invited so many people, how could we miss the battles?" replied Huo Shang cheerfully. Mo Fu was the one who wanted to fight against Mo Zheng. The Demon Shrine couldn"t get involved directly, so people of the same generation had to solve the issue themselves. Those people were all famous and smart, they knew what to do. The Shrines wouldn"t get involved, unless Lin Feng showed up, or unless things derailed.

"He"s here," said Di Jiang at that moment gazing into the distance. A few new people had arrived: some strong cultivators of the Demon Shrine, and Mo Fu was there too.

Everybody watched the strong cultivators of the Demon Shrine, as many people from different Shrines were there. Mo Zheng had drawn many people"s attention.

"How lively!" Someone else arrived, his silhouette flickering a few times. His eyes were golden.

"Empty s.p.a.ce Shrine strong cultivator!"

"Hahahaha…" Someone laughed loudly in the distance. People gazed into the distance and saw some dragon strength.

"Dragon chant?" The crowd saw a few people. Their Qi was wild and extraordinary. The eyes of the leader were filled with flames. The one next to him had red eyes, and the one behind looked calm and aloof. He was wearing black clothes. His Qi wasn"t explosive, but his pitch-black eyes looked scary.

"Aolie!" Huo Shang was astonished, staring at one of them who had fire red hair. He frowned and said coldly, "You came to the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, to Ancient Demon City?"

"What"s wrong? Why wouldn"t I come, Little Boy?" Aolie asked Huo Shang in a brutal tone of voice. The crowd was stupefied, Aolie wasn"t ordinary. He dared call Huo Shang "Little Boy"? They were powerful cultivators from the Supreme Animal World!

"Supreme Animal World"s Dragon Clan!" The crowd was really astonished, those people were from the Dragon Clan of the Supreme Animal World. Those who could found clans in the Supreme Animal World were terrifyingly strong. The Supreme Animal World was the only group the Imperial Court of the Continent of the Nine Clouds feared, because they had some terrifying clans, like the Dragon Clan.

Human"s strength lay in their cultivation; animals were different, they had inherent abilities!

"Why did the Dragon Clan come to Ancient Demon City?" asked the strong cultivator with the golden eyes. He looked sharp and aggressive.

"We came to see if there was anyone strong here," Aolie smiled. He was a fire dragon, and when he was very young, he had fought against some young people of the Shrines. The Shrines and the Supreme Animal World often had meetings and cultivation compet.i.tions, but n.o.body really knew the details. Of course, the purpose was always to check out how strong the enemy was.

Those people rarely showed up in the outside world, so people didn"t know much about them.

"It"s a blood dragon, and there"s a demon dragon, too," said the strong cultivator with the golden eyes. He was staring at Aolie.

"Even though the Void Breaking Vision is powerful, you"re underestimating the members of the Dragon Clan. Be careful, I could eat you alive," Aolie snorted coldly to the Empty s.p.a.ce cultivator.

"Hmph! Are you strong enough?" spat the Empty s.p.a.ce Shrine"s strong cultivator. The crowd looked at Aolie and the two other people, the blood dragon and the demon dragon. They were all from prestigious dragon families.

"Let"s try and we"ll see," replied Aolie coldly.

"If you want to try, then let"s try!" said the Empty s.p.a.ce Shrine"s strong cultivator. Two threads of strength rolled out and collided. People were speechless; Mo Zheng hadn"t even arrived, the Demon Shrine and Mo Zheng"s battle hadn"t even started, and now the Dragon Clan and the Empty s.p.a.ce Shrine were already starting to fight!

At that moment, another group of people arrived. Their leader was wearing a world robe, looking confident and at ease. At his sides were extraordinary looking cultivators. Some of them also emitted b.e.s.t.i.a.l Qi.

The leader of the group was Lin Feng. The landed on the ground and calmly glanced around. Lin Feng looked over at the three dragons.

"So many years have pa.s.sed, that little boy has grown up," Lin Feng smiled indifferently, but n.o.body noticed him.

In the distance, people raised their heads and heard a sonic boom as the person who made it arrived. When they saw him, people frowned; he looked like a demon, imposing and awe-inspiring. His eyes looked like two abyssal caves.

"Mo Zheng!" The strong cultivators of the Demon Shrine all watched him.

Mo Zheng landed on a flag, his hands clasped behind his back. He glanced at the members of the Demon Shrine and asked coldly, "Which member of the Demon Shrine wants to die today?"

When the crowd heard him, they frowned; how arrogant! The other times, they had just heard of him, but they hadn"t seen him. He put on an air of extreme arrogance. Everybody knew him in h.e.l.l, he was a core disciple of the h.e.l.l Shrine!

"But Mo Fu is also terrifyingly strong. I wonder who will be stronger!" thought the crowd. They were not disappointed. There were many geniuses!

"No rush. Many people want to fight today, so the battle between the Demon Shrine and the h.e.l.l Shrine can be at the end," said Huo Shang cheerfully. He watched the strong cultivator from the Empty s.p.a.ce Shrine and Aolie going at it. He really wanted to know how strong Aolie was.

"Indeed, there are so many strong cultivators, let"s compare ourselves. We should all take advantage of Mo Jia"s Battle Stage," someone else agreed at that moment. Dazzling golden lights appeared at the top of a flag; it was a strong cultivator from the Gold Shrine.

"If you want to exchange views on cultivation, then hurry up!" said Mo Zheng indifferently. He was standing on the top of the flagpole, his robe fluttering in the wind.

Chapter 2309: Strong Cultivators from Everywhere

Edited by RED

The crowd watched Mo Zheng atop the flagpole: a genius from the h.e.l.l Shrine, his Qi was extraordinary.

Many strong cultivators had come to Mo Jia"s Battle Stage. They had come to exchange views on cultivation, including many people from other Shrines, some people from Holy Sage Ruler Clans, and some people just to watch.

"Huo Shang, if you want to fight, just fight, talking is useless. I"ll be happy to devour you alive," said Aolie proudly. His eyes were filled with flames. He was a fire dragon, and Huo Shang was a disciple of the Fire Shrine. Aolie wanted to see how powerful Huo Shang"s fire was.

"Let"s do it then, let"s fight!" said Huo Shang agreeably. He jumped onto Mo Jia"s Battle Stage, fire surrounding his body instantly. Huo Xing Zi also walked onto the battle stage.

"Haha, Aoxu, let"s go," said Aolie to Aoxu. Aolie landed opposite them and said, "Huo Xing Zi has the same cultivation level as you, he"s yours."

Aoxu nodded. Back in the day, when Mo Zheng had first appeared in the outside world, he was already a high-level Imperial Beast in the Animal Supreme World. Now, many years had pa.s.sed, and he was already a Celestial Imperial Beast. His cultivation level seemed very stable, and his fighting abilities were probably incredible. He was a real dragon, so he had an inherent talent.

"Anyone else want to play? Come here. We"re not here to kill, we"re here to exchange views, for real!" said Aolie. Someone groaned coldly. It was the Empty s.p.a.ce Shrine"s strong cultivator, he jumped onto the battle stage.

Di Jiang smiled and said, "Jing Xiao, let"s go and have some fun?"

Xue Jing Xiao muttered to himself irresolutely. Last time, in the Snow Clan, he had suffered a crus.h.i.+ng defeat against Lin Feng. At the same time, the Snow Clan"s reputation had been crushed. One of their monarchs had died, two had been taken away… he was the last one left. It was a tragedy, he had to fight to regain face!

He nodded and jumped onto the battle stage. There were so many strong cultivators on Mo Jia"s Battle Stage.

"I want to have some fun too!" said Gu Xuan Feng. He was from the Demon Shrine, he had come with Mo Fu. During the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, he had tried to kill Lin Feng, who had strength at the top of the Huang Qi layer. Now, he was like Huo Xing Zi; he had broken through to the Tian Di layer. Even though he had become a Celestial Emperor a short time before, he was a cultivator from a Shrine, and very strong.

The people next to Lin Feng seemed excited and eager to try. Lin Feng smiled and said, "No rush. We"ll see afterwards."

Lin Feng had brought Qing Hai"s roc and the others. He had also brought some Celestial Imperial Beasts from the army the King of the Ten Thousand Beasts had given to him. They were all extremely strong. They wanted to compare themselves with the geniuses of this world, it was normal.

The strong cultivators on the Mo Jia"s Battle Stage already started fighting. The battle stage was on fire.

There were powerful blood lights around Aoxu. Dao power kept a.s.saulting his opponent, trying to crush him. At the same time, some illusionary blood dragons bared fangs and brandished claws as they attacked!

Huo Xing Zi grunted coldly. He took out a fire mace and attacked the dragons, which made them roar furiously before they started burning.

"Die!" shouted Aoxu, punching out in his opponent"s direction. Huo Xing Zi was startled, his fire mace instantly disappearing. He swallowed and released more fire which surrounded him. A fireball appeared in his hand.

"Break!" Dragon chants spread in the air. The dragon"s powers were explosive, immediately destroying the fireball. Aoxu was staring at his opponent, shooting blood lights towards him. But Huo Xing Zi stood steadfast and the fire in his hand grew more and more intense.

Blood dragons raced towards him. The crowd couldn"t see Huo Xing Zi at all anymore. He disappeared inside all those blood dragons. Suddenly, fingers emerged from the blood lights, fire pierced through them; some blood dragons were instantly destroyed, the others started burning and disappeared. In the end, only some blood dragon"s claws reached him.

The two attacks collided. the blood lights surrounded Huo Xing Zi"s fire. Both opponents collided, then they were both forced away. When they stopped moving, there was blood on Aoxu"s fist, and flames had appeared around him. Huo Xing Zi was trembling and covered with blood. Aoxu"s attack was so explosive, he had the impression he had nearly died!

At that kind of cultivation level, people have to control themselves not to use their full strength, they only use a little bit of strength. n.o.body knows how strong a cultivator is, but themselves, thought Lin Feng. Saints could kill the strongest great emperors in the blink of an eye with the power of their minds. Even the Fire Shrine"s Saint had died easily because the Diviner was too strong.

"Huo Shang, come and try," challenged Aolie, stepping forwards. The battle stage trembled. Huo Shang"s eyes were filled with flames.

At that moment, a wind carried a cold Qi, like the battle stage was about to freeze: Ice King intent filled the air. That person was much stronger than Aoxu and Huo Xing Zi!

"Snow Clan, Xue Jing Xiao! I"ve wanted to exchange views with the dragons of the Supreme Animal World"s Dragon Clan for a long time," said Xue Jing Xiao calmly. Fire and ice were antagonist kinds of strengths, and they were both beasts!

"Same here, let"s see how strong a King of the Snow Clan can be!" returned Aolie evenly. They started fighting. It was a great battle, too. Fire and ice kept colliding as they invaded the battle stage. Their battle was quite dangerous; when Aolie and Xue Jing Xiao moved away from one another, they were both injured. They both had similar strength!

"Xue Jing Xiao has a king-type body and is from the Snow Clan. Aolie is from the Dragon Clan and a terrifying genius. They are both terrifying geniuses," the onlookers commented.

"You"re extremely strong. Your fighting abilities are incredible. Anyone else want to try?" said Aolie indifferently.

Dazzling golden lights flashed. The Empty s.p.a.ce Shrine"s strong cultivator jumped in front of Aolie. Instantly, Aolie had the impression he was in a cage, and shouted furiously. His opponent looked like an illusion and was teleporting. His strength surged towards Aolie.

"Brilliant! Who else wants to fight? Come!" said someone. At that moment, Heze"s mahoraga jumped up and landed on the battle stage. He was already a Celestial Emperor, he had broken through to the Tian Di layer a short time before.

"Where are you from?" said Gu Xuan Feng coldly, releasing demon energies. He started running towards the mahoraga. Each time he took a step, explosive demon strength surrounded the mahoraga. Gu Xuan Feng then released some pitch-black demon punches.

The mahoraga transformed and threw himself at Xuan Feng, still spitting venom. Gu Xuan Feng sensed the strength of the smelly poison. It was dangerous!

"What a strange mahoraga, but he"s super strong!" cheered the crowd. The people around Lin Feng jumped onto the battle stage and shouted, "Who wants to fight?!"

"My turn!" said a cultivator of the top of the Di Qi layer, throwing himself at Qing Hai"s roc. n.o.body chose opponents weaker than them, everybody wanted to fight against someone stronger.

Some strong cultivators from the Shrines were fighting, too!

"Those people"s fighting abilities are incredible. Beasts or people, they"re all very strong!" cheered the crowd. They were a bit surprised, because there was a group of people they didn"t know. They weren"t from the Shrines, and those from the Supreme Animal World didn"t know them, either. How come they had appeared so suddenly? Which group were they from?

Many people looked at Lin Feng. He was wearing a World robe, his hair was fluttering in the wind, his Qi only dimly discernible. They could sense that he was terrifyingly strong, otherwise, he wouldn"t have come with such strong cultivators.

In the distance, two people appeared. When Huo Xing Zi saw them, he was stunned. "Why are they here?"

Qing Feng and Jing. They had come to watch the battles.

Lin Feng looked over at them. He looked on calmly; he knew they were going to be here.

The Demon Shrine had organized this event, Lin Feng was going to take advantage of it. He slowly walked over to Jing and Qing Feng. Many strong cultivators watched him. He looked imposing and awe-inspiring.
