As the Two Realms and Six Barriers came to an end, the leaderboard underwent another shift. The person at the top was now Tenglan, known as Zhongshang, the first to successfully break through the barriers. Jie Donglai, Ye Youluo, Xiao Zhang, and others were also prominently placed outside the top ten. Gu Ping, who had entered the first tier with his Peak of Golden Core breakthrough, made quite a splash. The initial sword strike had become a topic of discussion among everyone in Jie Donglai within just one day. Everyone was curious about who Jiang Ping really was. Although there had been bets on Pei Shigui's exploits before the Sky East Tournament, no one had ever heard of Jiang Ping prior to this, let alone seen him. Moreover, his name was absent from the Two Lists.
"What do you think about that initial sword strike?"
With only a day left until Jie Donglai's Misalignment phase, the bustling Tiandong City was alive with chatter. Xiao Zhang, Hong Yulong, Chu Yunfeng, and Hong Ling were walking through Sky's End Tower discussing Jie Donglai's recent events.
"The Overlord Sword," he recalled witnessing that strike in the Grand Arena. A Distant Paradise and Overlord Sword combined into one move could be said to be beyond mortal comprehension. Pei Shigui had personally tasted that sword strike; if I don't deny it, that guy was wearing top-tier defensive gear at the time. That single strike could have easily claimed his life.
"The Overlord Sword?"
Chu Yunfeng remembered being at Liangxiaoshan's mid-slope during that time. He felt that people might think he had been eliminated since he hadn't shown up since then. However, he couldn't shake off the feeling that the Overlord Sword and a technique from Cheng Dao Sect called Opening Heaven Decision Technique were strikingly similar. That sword strike seemed capable of shattering space itself; its power was undeniable, but the Sword Intent was far too reminiscent.
"That Jiang Ping in Ni Tian Ye didn't use the legendary A Distant Paradise, did he? I can't imagine how a mere Golden Core Cultivator could wield such legendary techniques. Besides, in World of Mortals, I don't deny it—there are heavenly regulations that prohibit the use of celestial arts."
Perhaps it was some kind of secret technique; it could even be a Divine Ability.
Ever since witnessing Gu Ping's astonishing two-in-one sword strike that day, Hong Yulong had been searching for a way to counter it. Yet no matter how he pondered over it, he felt that A Distant Paradise was simply too defiant; breaking through it seemed nearly impossible.
"Divine Ability?"
Chu Yunfeng suddenly recalled what Xiao Zhang had mentioned during their meeting last night. If he truly were a Tian Zai person, then even if he could perform Divine Abilities, there wouldn't be much to make a fuss about.
He asked whether they had discussed that sword strike last night and why they kept guessing who might have hidden techniques up their sleeves.
Is it just me? Chu Yunfeng thought, how could Xiao Zhang not know? It was something kept under wraps; how could he be unaware?
Let me know if it’s really something to keep under wraps.
Well, that might not be the case. Chu Yunfeng pondered. In the past twenty years, Xiao Zhang had made remarkable progress, breaking through without encountering any bottlenecks. Moreover, with the tasks assigned by the Sect, it was only natural for Fei Xiao Zhang to achieve various accomplishments. Indeed, he had been somewhat isolated from the world. In just over a decade, talents like Hong Yulong, Jiang Ping, and Mu Qinglong had emerged. Even he had to admit that he was somewhat out of touch with the times. The power of Bu Luo's sword last night could probably overwhelm any ordinary Transcendent Practitioner.
I think I don’t deny it. It can’t be wrong to trust Ye Youluo.
Hong Yulong understood why Chu Yunfeng hesitated. Although Gu Ping's sword was powerful, its buildup time was too long; Ye Youluo wouldn’t give him that much time to prepare.
Ye Youluo might have already surpassed those who fought alone and won against them. It could even be said that his generation had resolved many issues, and they might struggle against the next generation. One could say that during the Sky East Tournament, Ye Youluo had undeniably become the top contender in Tiandong without any doubt.
I don’t deny it. Is Jiang Ping really that formidable?
The Peak of Golden Core is indeed capable of crossing an entire realm to contend with the Peak of Nascent Soul. It has been a millennium since such a genius appeared. He is not alone; Hong Yulong and Jiang Ping are also exceptional. I think Ye Youluo has reached that level as well. Talents emerge in every generation, but perhaps there are too many from this one; it seems we are on the brink of a great era of conflict.
Chu Yunfeng was over twenty years younger than Sima Wuduan, and compared to Xiao Zhang and Hong Yulong, he felt he should refer to them as seniors. At this moment, Chu Yunfeng could sense that beneath the seemingly calm surface of the sea, a massive undercurrent was surging towards those who had yet to fully mature. He wondered how many would survive when the tide of this era came crashing down.
That Jiang Ping?
In Universe Hall, Mu Qinglong was walking through Ye Youluo's courtyard, seeking advice from the Nine Nether's First Strategist on various matters. He couldn’t help but acknowledge that this person could slice down Sima Wuduan, a Golden Core Cultivator.
What about Jiang Ping? Or Gu Ping?
Gu Ping?
Mu Qinglong found it hard to imagine that he had participated in Ye Youluo's hunting plan for Jiang Ping. Gasping had not succeeded, and at that time, he was very curious about why Ye Youluo was so interested in a piece of parchment. He never expected that Jiang Ping would actually deny Gu Ping. However, that parchment recorded the Cultivation Method, and he couldn't understand what could possibly make the person before him, who could speak so confidently even in front of two Daoist Masters, so concerned.
Were they trying to expose his identity?
What benefit would that bring them?
Mu Qinglong pondered this back and forth, realizing that it could redirect the Daoist Sect's focus back onto Gu Ping. It seemed that denying the Nine Nether Plan didn’t hold much advantage; at least it could allow him to exit early without affecting their plans.
He wouldn’t mind if Gu Ping came to trouble him; that way, he could easily deal with that guy and prevent him from becoming a major headache later on.
I don't deny it. Brother Ye thought things through, while Qinglong was perhaps being too hasty.
