"It is said that back in the day, Yan Xin slew Kou Ni with one strike that cut through the clouds, splitting the azure skies, and even severed the fortunes of Celestial Water Prefecture.
Therefore, in recent years, no outstanding talents have emerged. Talents like Silver Hammer Grand Protector Pei Yuanqing, and Mu Zhaoyang from the Meridian Sword Sect, were all discovered outside."
Changxiaozi lowered his head and chuckled softly, echoing in agreement.
"The battle of Divine Techniques, named ’Heaven’s Fall’, is not without reason.
Its impact was widespread, leaving significant consequences, especially for the master and disciple pair, Yan Xin and Kou Qiuyue, both above the ten transformations."
Feng Chouzi’s tone slowed, speaking vaguely to prevent Mo Tian Sheng of the Dragon Sword hanging high above from overhearing.
Who knows if these sword madmen will suddenly unsheathe their swords and charge down.
The taboo of masters and disciples killing each other, the death of a Daoist, has always been a sore point for the Sword Sect.
"Speaking of which, this Bai Qilang should be the most outstanding talent among the Six Commanderies of Celestial Water Prefecture.
Though residing in Yihai Prefecture, he shakes the Divine Capital Central Hub, alarming the Chaotic Bell and Elephant List of the Simurgh Platform.
If he grows, his future achievements would be limitless."
Changxiaozi sighed inadvertently.
"The Divine Capital lacks nothing except genius seeds.
Hehe, even those doing odd jobs in the North Study were once noted for True Inheritance Level in Prefecture City.
Lord Zhou Jue loves to gather good seedlings, according to him, it’s like planting trees and growing flowers.
Whenever he’s free, he waters them to see if they can survive.
Even if they wither to death, as long as they aren’t rare treasures or unique flowers, he won’t regret it."
Feng Chouzi seemed touched by a hidden pain and suddenly snorted coldly:
"The food should be cold, let’s go."
He entered the capital at a young age, passing through the layers of selection at the Daoist School before stepping into the gates of the Seal and Ribbon Bureau.
He himself was among the rarest talent in ten thousand li, yet still not qualified for those in the North Study who are choosing the best seedlings to look at him even once.
"Genius? When you reach the Divine Capital, you are worth nothing!"
Feng Chouzi gathered up the geomantic map, maliciously laughing inwardly.
...
...
Inheritance Hall, rear courtyard.
Bai Qi was practicing, breathing and refining spiritual aura when suddenly the void trembled.
He immediately sensed it, his eyes blazing suddenly with light.
"Who?"
Having experienced an assassination attempt by the Hidden Pavilion once, Bai Qi remained highly vigilant, coupled with his mind opening the three senses, making his spiritual perception extraordinarily sharp.
The ethereal void was like a stone dropping in a calm lake, spreading fine ripples.
His elongated jade-like fingers stretched, surging Qi Blood wildly burst out, forming a tremendous tearing force!
"Saint Child!"
Bai Qi clenched his palms firmly and fiercely struck.
The stone scripture that appeared abruptly was struck violently, imprinting a deep pit into the ground!
"Oh...how could it be you?"
Bai Qi paused his movement, halting the subsequent fierce storm-like offensive.
Ever since slaying Zhao Pijiang’s divine intent, departing from the Inner Scenic Land of He Mountain Dao, and acquiring the Withered Revive Wood.
He hadn’t seen the immaculate scripture again.
This item is a great treasure of the Dao, possessing the mystical traits of merging into the void and fleeing a thousand miles away.
Even if captured in hand, it’s of no use.
Unless it truly submits and surrenders.
"Saint Child! I have painstakingly been searching for you!"
The immaculate scripture was filled with grievance, sounding quite resentful.
The Chi Yang Sect Leader suddenly intervened, contending with Zhao Pijiang’s divine intent, followed by the Meridian Sword Sect joining the chaos, causing the small Inner Scenic Land to become a mess.
It had no choice but to retreat first, hiding back in the passage opened by the Four Reversals Sect.
All these days, the immaculate scripture constantly missed Bai Qi.
Recalling his grand vision, it almost trembled with excitement.
Wishing to invite the Pimo King to show his divine presence, to personally bring Bai Qi back, appoint him as the Saint Child.
Lead the Four Reversals Sect to grow larger and stronger!
"These days, I’ve been hiding in Yihai Prefecture, originally intending to immediately find the Saint Child!
But truly saw a ghost, something went wrong, in such a small place, one Divine Power Giant after another.
Such as Mo Tian Sheng of the Dragon Sword, Zhao Pijiang, Yan Xin...scaring me almost to pieces."
The immaculate scripture babbled complainingly, Bai Qi looked closely and indeed discovered a hidden crack on the corner of the book cover.
"Is the pressure of Divine Power Giants truly so strong?"
The immaculate scripture seemed like a tail-wagging puppy, climbing up from the ground, squeezing in front of Bai Qi:
"Saint Child! Don’t you know, those Divine Power Giants are all renowned, not easy to provoke!
Today, there’s even a Daoist Official from the Divine Capital Central Hub coming over, appearing as a Ghost Immortal!
Yihai Prefecture has already become a Dragon’s Pool and Tiger’s Den, we should hurry far away to avoid disaster..."
Bai Qi scratched his head, the Divine Power Giants mentioned by the immaculate scripture seemed all to be coming for him?
He lowered his eyelids, glossing over Master Chen Xing and the Three Yang Sect, picked and chose to clarify the general context.
"What!"
The immaculate scripture jolted, sketching hurriedly scribbled text.
The Saint Child that the Four Reversals Sect fancy was surprisingly being contested by Meridian Sword Sect and Dragon Court!
"There are just too many competitors!"
Bai Qi feigned helplessness, pressing a hand to his forehead:
"Tomorrow morning, the Celestial Envoy from Dragon Court’s Divine Capital wants to summon me for an audience.
Brother Jing Shu, though my heart is inclined towards the Four Reversals Sect, I must conform to the Court’s command."
The immaculate scripture regretted immensely, had it kidnapped Bai Qi to the Four Reversals Sect earlier, how could it have sat back and watched the prized catch fall into the bowl of others.
"Saint Child! How foolish! Divine Capital is not a place where one can easily stand out!
If your ancestors haven’t had any connections, never helped the Supreme Emperor seize the world, how can you climb higher!
Especially Zhou Juezi in the North Study, renowned for his love of collecting prodigies, just like scholars love paintings and elegant guests enjoy tea.
However, he does not regard them as treasures, but believes that only the unique ones are true gems.
Those buried or died prematurely along the way are all ordinary items."
Bai Qi’s heart shuddered, with his talent and lineage, if noticed by this Zhou Juezi, won’t he just be cultivated like a potted plant!
