Awakening from the Devouring Starry Sky

Chapter 689: Immortal Fate Conference
Ji Ning had just met his cousin Yuchi Xiyue and was invited by Zhuanshui clan's Zhuanshui Xiaolou to go to Shuiyunlou, the top entertainment place in the capital of Daxia. There, he was desperately assassinated by Fuyun immortal, a wandering immortal from Shaoyan clan. However, he relied on his perfect second soul to withstand Fuyun immortal's attack and even killed him, thus becoming famous in the capital.

On the second day after Ji Ning killed the Floating Cloud Immortal, Di Ke made a special trip to Prince Yan's Mansion to congratulate Ji Ning on his great improvement in strength. Naturally, he was warmly welcomed and entertained by Ji Ning and Princess Xiyue.

Then, Bai Yan, Mu Zishuo, Yu Wei, Master Cangjiang, Master Sloppy and a group of other disciples from the Black and White Academy came together and gathered with Di Ke and Ji Ning at the Prince Yan's Mansion. The Prince Yan's Mansion, which was originally quite deserted, suddenly became lively.

Compared to the original novel, this time there are obviously more Black and White Academy disciples who come to the capital to participate in the Immortal Fate Conference or watch the game. Among them, in addition to Di Ke and Ji Ning, there are Sloppy, Yu Wei, Fire Saint and Gan Xie who are preparing to participate in the Immortal Fate Conference. Together with Cangjiang Zhenren and Xueying Zhenren who come to watch the game, there are more than ten Black and White Academy disciples who have come to the capital.

Among these Black and White Academy disciples, some had average friendship with Di Ke, but there were also some who had discussed and exchanged ideas with him, and even received guidance from Di Ke. Without exception, they all respected and admired Di Ke. Just because Di Ke dared to confront the Xuanji Patriarch in the Black and White Academy, even the Sloppy Master could only give him a thumbs up and say he was awesome.

Moreover, over the past year, Di Ke's reputation in the capital of Daxia has become increasingly famous, and even the entire Black and White Academy has become more famous in the Daxia world. Naturally, the disciples of the Black and White Academy have also heard of him. Even the Taoist Priests and Immortals of the Black and White Academy regard Di Ke as the pride of the entire academy.

On this day, snowflakes were falling. Beside a lake in Prince Yan's Palace, Dicko stood with his hands behind his back. It seemed as if there was an invisible energy blocking him, causing the falling snowflakes to automatically slide aside when they approached him.

"Do you really want to participate in the Immortal Fate Conference?" Turning his head to look at Bai Yan standing quietly beside him in a red robe, Di Ke couldn't help but frowned and said, "You should know that everyone who has the confidence to participate in the Immortal Fate Conference is a peerless genius ranked at the top of the 3,600 counties in the world. Although your strength has improved rapidly over the years, you will definitely be at the bottom of the list in this Immortal Fate Conference? The Immortal Fate Conference will kill people, why take such a risk?"

"I know I am not talented enough. Without your guidance, I would not be able to become a disciple of the Black and White Academy. But with your guidance alone, without the trials of life and death, I would not be able to make such rapid progress," Bai Yan shook her head and smiled calmly, "I don't have your heaven-defying talent and understanding. If I don't have the determination and courage to not fear life and death, how can I go further on the road of cultivating immortals?"

"Originally, I had no intention of attending the Immortal Fate Conference. However, after coming to Prince Yan's Mansion and hearing about Senior Prince Yan's experience, I made up my mind to attend this Immortal Fate Conference." Looking at the snowflakes flying on the lake, Bai Yan's voice was not loud, but she was very firm: "I believe that as long as I don't die in the Immortal Fate Conference this time, this Immortal Fate Conference will be a very rare tempering for me, and I will no longer have any fear when facing those geniuses and monsters. As long as I don't die, who will go further on the road of cultivating immortals in the future is still hard to say!"

After saying that, Bai Yan turned around and left without waiting for Di Ke to say more. Di Ke, watching her leaving, couldn't help but shook his head and sighed. This woman still chose the most difficult path. However, with such a heart of Taoism, she is indeed very suitable for the path of cultivating immortals. Maybe, she will really have amazing achievements in the future!
“It seems that my appearance, Hei Yan’s transformation into a celestial being, and Ji Ning’s outstanding talent have given the Black and White Academy’s disciples a lot of confidence and courage! They all want to participate in the Immortal Fate Conference. I don’t know whether it is a good thing or a bad thing!” Dicko sighed as if muttering to himself, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if his whole body merged with the surrounding environment. He felt it silently for a moment, and as wisps of icy mist surrounded his body, a mysterious wave of Tao descended.

At the same time, in the Prince Yan's Mansion, which covers an area of ​​a thousand miles, on the top of an elegant mountain, under an old crooked tree, a tall and burly man in a black robe stood silently, looking at the place where the fluctuations of the Tao were descending in the distance. He couldn't help but raise his thick eyebrows and said, "The disciples of the Black and White Academy are either emperors or monsters, or they have extraordinary character. There is even a new celestial being born. Could it be a place where the luck of my Great Xia world gathers?"

This burly man in a black robe with a murderous aura is none other than the owner of Prince Yan's Mansion, Prince Yan, who is from the Xia Mang clan of the Great Xia royal family and has recently survived the heavenly tribulation and become a celestial being.

Di Ke and other disciples of the Black and White Academy now live in the Prince Yan's mansion. Naturally, they are secretly watched by the Prince Yan. They also gradually find that these disciples of the Black and White Academy are really outstanding. No wonder many of them are preparing to participate in the Fairy Fate Conference. More than three months have passed in a blink of an eye. Finally, it is the day of the Fairy Fate Conference on the 16th day of the first lunar month. Geniuses gather in the capital, and Di Ke and others have learned in advance that Emperor Xia will personally host this Fairy Fate Conference.

In the early morning, the Wanxiang Zhenren living in various places in the capital of Daxia, as well as the princes of the 3,600 counties, all rushed to the Chaohuang City.
Di Ke, Ji Ning, La Ti, Yu Wei, Bai Yan, the red-robed bald-headed young man named Huo Sheng Zhenren, and the tall but fair-skinned young man Gan Xie, whose body was covered with all kinds of glittering treasures, flew together above the streets leading to the imperial city in the royal capital. As for the other people from the Black and White Academy, they all followed Marquis An Chan's team.

Outside the closed gates of the imperial city, with the arrival of Dicko and others, all the geniuses of Wanxiang Zhenren slowly gathered together, and soon there was a sea of ​​people, with people filling the streets and the air.

"This is the first time I've seen so many geniuses. The elites of an era in the Great Xia world have gathered here! I wonder how many of these geniuses will be able to become powerful people in the three realms in the future, and how many will be able to successfully overcome the tribulation and become celestial immortals," looking at so many geniuses, Di Ke couldn't help but sigh.

In a big world like the Daxia world, there are so many geniuses from generation to generation. However, from the era of gods and demons to the present, over the long years, although a large number of immortals have been born, the real strong ones in the three realms such as gods and true immortals are rare.

Therefore, even though there are many powerful people at the level of Heavenly Gods and True Immortals in the entire Three Realms, the value of a Heavenly God and True Immortal is still very high in the Three Realms. After all, the number of the truly top powerful people in the Three Realms, those True Gods and Dao Ancestors, is even smaller, and it is rare for one to be born.

When the Golden Crow rose high and the sun shone upon the entire Great Xia capital, the gates of the Imperial City finally opened. The Returning Void God and Demon Guard with flames spewing from his nose also looked down at the crowd outside and said, "All the True People of the Myriad Worlds who wish to participate in the Immortal Fate Conference can enter the Imperial City now. As long as you enter, you must participate in the Immortal Fate Conference and cannot retreat. All right, go in!"

Suddenly, dense crowds of people swarmed into the imperial city like locusts, and then, led by a group of golden-armored guards, they walked along the wide avenue and soon arrived at a huge square.

"This formation" Looking down at the extremely complex runes on the black stone slabs of the square below, Dicko's eyes sparkled: "It is worthy of being the Great Xia Realm Suppression Formation created by a great man like Daozu!"

With the invisible power of mystical will spreading, Di Ke quietly checked the formation diagram on the square, and soon understood a lot after pondering. After all, Di Ke had not wasted his time in pondering the formation and talisman method on the world prison stone tablet from the Jiufang Universe Kingdom, and the formation and talisman method was indeed very profound and exquisite.

Therefore, in terms of attainments in formation formation, in the entire Three Realms, Di Ke is definitely one of the best, if not the best.
