As the Sky East Tournament progressed, news—both good and bad—reached Sky's End Tower, plunging everyone's hearts into despair.
A full day passed, and Mu Qinglong became the first to be eliminated from the competition. However, just half a day later, the news of Tenglan, known as Zhongshang, being eliminated spread throughout Sky's End Tower.
Before Tenglan's elimination, they had harbored hopes of teaming up to take down Ye Youluo, but with Tenglan's exit, there was no one left to stop Dong Lai from advancing.
Despite Ying Zhan being incredibly powerful in the early stages of Transcendence, and even ranking among the top in that realm, it mattered little. Even if Golden Peak could withstand an early-stage Transcendence being, what difference would it make?
Ying Zhan and others were left with no options; whether it was Ye Youluo or any other formidable figure from the Daoist Sect, they shone brightly like a near-divine presence.
The living legend was nothing short of this.
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Tenglan, supported by Wen Shiren, made his way to the top floor of Sky's End Tower. He slowly recounted his experiences to Hong Yulong and others. The news brought by Tenglan confirmed their earlier suspicions: Ye Youluo had begun to act.
During his flight from the beasts, he encountered Ye Youluo. He was puzzled by the strange symbols drawn on her Talin base when she intercepted Dong Lai. She did not directly attack; even without her intervention, he found himself trapped in a tide of beasts. The Decayed Aura slowed his spiritual energy significantly, forcing him to give up.
Tenglan, who was healing from his injuries, felt a sense of despair upon hearing everyone's speculations. Wen Shiren's identity weighed heavily on him.
If Gu Bian had been the most outstanding disciple of the outer academy in nearly a decade, then Wen Shiren was undoubtedly the one who had dominated for ten years. But why?
Tenglan couldn't understand why this was happening. Had the academy owed anything to them? Since he was ten years old, Wen Shiren had thrived at the academy's intellectual peak. Had he never held any regard for the academy? Why was he so fixated on the now-extinct Light Path and the fallen Sunfire Sect? What about those senior brothers he had never met?
No matter how Tenglan pondered, he couldn't find an answer. Why was it so?
Wen Shiren felt as if his heart had turned to ashes upon discovering his true identity, much like the day he learned of the Sunfire Sect's destruction. The pain was unbearable, yet there was nothing he could do. After the events of the Sky East Tournament reached the academy, the Harmony Society had already disbanded. Zhang Qian had fled the academy overnight, leaving no trace behind. Now, Wen Shiren could never return to the academy where he had lived for over a decade; that place was lost to him forever.
From the moment the Cursed Ruby Dragon struck, Wen Shiren felt a mix of anticipation and despair. He was no longer the Wen Shiren of Mok Ming Academy; instead, he had become a remnant of the Light Path, facing endless pursuits from Daoist Sect and Infinite. Yet he did not regret it. He knew that from now on, he could return to that place he had dreamed of countless times—a place that could truly accept him.
Wen Shiren arrived with the discarded Tenglan, known as Zhongshang, in tow. He did not deny his request but acknowledged that he was indeed a successor of the Light Path, a disciple of the Light Path.
During the Battle of Good and Evil, disciples of the Light Path always stood at the forefront. Similarly, during the Nine Nether Invasion, they would not retreat. This was their chosen path; even if no one expressed gratitude or witnessed their bloodshed on the battlefield, it remained their path.
The Great Dao has three thousand branches, yet he alone stood on Han Mountain.
Everyone knew they fought for a sense of protection in their hearts, for tranquility and justice.
Thus, Wen Shiren came bearing news that was most unfavorable for everyone present.
Did we know about another matter?
Upon hearing Wen Shiren's words, Hong Yulong, who had been gazing at Cosmic Plaza, suddenly felt a tightness in his chest. He realized that what Wen Shiren and Jie Donglai were about to say would likely shock everyone.
Wen Shiren fixed his gaze on Xiao Zhang and spoke each word deliberately: "Jiang is indeed..."
In the secret chamber of Universe Hall, upon learning about the confirmed news from Tenglan, known as Zhongshang, and seeing those flickering numbers from time to time, Old Hall Master reluctantly accepted what he had long wished to deny. The message sent by Sky's End Tower was undoubtedly true. Coupled with Hong Ling's anxious voice during their communication, there was no joking about such matters. Therefore, he summoned all worthy stewards of Universe Hall to gather in the main hall and dispatched people to bring forth any cultivators who had been eliminated from Ninth Underworld.
As Shen Shi hurriedly approached, Old Hall Master slowly closed his eyes. The scene he most dreaded had come to pass.
In the lounge of the Ninth Underworld, it was already empty.
"Are all the Stewards gathered?"
More than half of the Stewards were already waiting in the hall, while a small number of cultivators were still on their way.
"Jue, go take a look."
