The sect asked me to marry, and I cultivated to the pinnacle of martial arts!

To avoid mistaking someone for someone else, Ji Ruxue looked again, then again, then several more times...

In the end, it was found that the person was fine!

It's him! Chen... Beixuan!
"No... so he came to Wuzhou just to do this?"

This……

This was indeed beyond Ji Ruxue's expectations.

Ji Ruxue originally thought that Lu Ye had come here for training.

After all, once one's cultivation reaches a certain level, going out to gain experience is a path that most people would choose.

But now, he's just shattered the records left behind in Wuzhou hundreds of years ago?!

As more and more cultivators rapidly approached from all around, Ji Ruxue felt her heart beat faster.

Wait a minute... will he really be able to leave safely?
There are far too many experts in Wuzhou. Back in Xuanzhou, I was able to ask my father for help.

Once you get here... everything will be different.

Thinking of this, a hint of worry appeared in Ji Ruxue's eyes.

Amidst the murmurs in the square, Lu Ye, who was inside the light barrier, opened his eyes.

"So many grandmasters?"

With a raised eyebrow, Lu Ye instantly sensed the auras of many Grandmasters around the plaza.

Among them, the mortal realm is the most numerous, but the number of those in the earth realm has also exceeded double digits.

Judging from the speed at which powerful individuals were attracted, the number of experts in Wuzhou indeed far exceeded that of other states I had visited.

Sensing that the light shield could last for a while longer, Lu Ye pondered for a moment and chose not to continue refining the last wave of energy fed back from the stone tablet.

Instead, he directly took out the resources from his own storage ring.

He planned to use the powerful defensive effect of the stone tablet's light shield to... make a breakthrough here!
Reaching his current level and advancing to the next rank represents a qualitative change for Lu Ye.

A moment later, Lu Ye refined a batch of resources...

This action left the cultivators outside, who were waiting for the light barrier to break and reveal the real person inside, completely dumbfounded.

"Wait... Under normal circumstances, this light barrier should disappear quickly, so why is it still here?!"

"That's what I think too. I've seen others make it onto the leaderboard before and refine the rewards. At this stage... it should be coming soon."

Something's not right! Something's nine-tenths wrong!

Qin Xiao stood on the horizon, gazing at the light barrier, his brows furrowed deeply.

Unlike most cultivators who can only guess, Qin Xiao himself is ranked on the Wuzhou Stone Tablet List, so how could he not understand the mechanism of the stone tablet?

"Why do I have a feeling that this person deliberately left behind a trace of energy instead of refining it?"

Qin Xiao frowned. So... what is this person trying to do?
How can we make the beam of light last longer and attract more cultivators?
Let's trample on the face of those local cultivators in Wuzhou a few more times.
But as soon as the thought crossed his mind, Qin Xiao subconsciously felt that something was wrong.

This person's inclusion on the list demonstrates that among the younger generation, his cultivation is absolutely unparalleled, with no one able to surpass him.

But this kind of behavior, which seems to provoke all cultivators in the entire Wuzhou...

No normal person could do that!

After all, Wuzhou isn't just populated by the younger generation; there are plenty of old fogies who are still alive and well.

If we really anger those old fogies, the fourth level of the Heavenly Realm is really not enough to impress them!
As far as Qin Xiao knew, there were several elders in his sect who were at the late stage of the Heaven Realm. Not to mention his own ancestor, who was an existence that had surpassed the Heaven Realm.

"What exactly does he mean?" Qin Xiao was immediately puzzled. He never expected that this person had no other intentions at all, but simply wanted to take advantage of the invincible mechanism of the light shield to cultivate and break through.

As time slowly passed, the area around Guangzhou became even more congested.

The crowd was enormous, numbering over 100,000, packed into the square, not to mention the onlookers all around.

Every so often, other people would receive various messages and travel from afar to deliver them.

Some of these figures were clearly of considerable importance, prompting many of the experts present to greet them proactively.

Among the group of people who had arrived long ago, Qin Xiao naturally belonged to the most noble category. He remained calm and composed, with little change in expression on his face.

At that very moment.

Ring ring ring...

As a faint bell-like sound drifted from the distant horizon, many cultivators qualified to stand in the sky immediately paled, as if...

I heard something terrifying!

Under these circumstances, who would dare to stand in the sky, suspended above a crowd of 100,000 people in the square, without the strength to surpass even the mortal realm?
The people below would probably rush up and knock that person down!
"That bell... who's coming?!"

"Hiss, this matter has actually alarmed that other force as well?!"

In the plaza below, Ji Ruxue, who was being protected by several guards in a small corner, also subtly changed color.

"Could it be... the Nine Profound Red Dust Sect?"

At first glance, this name doesn't sound nearly as imposing as the Witch God Sect.

The Witch God Sect originated from the legitimate lineage of the Witch God of Wuzhou, and on the surface, it is the pinnacle power in Wuzhou.

However, only some well-informed people in Wuzhou knew that there was another force above the three top forces in Wuzhou!
That is the Nine Profound Red Dust Sect!
These three major forces were all founded by the three most outstanding geniuses in the past 100,000 years in Wuzhou, who established their sects and left behind their lineages.

The Nine Profound Red Dust Sect originated from the first generation of the Witch God...

It is the most original Wuzhou Taoist lineage!
This bell sound is not a simple melody, but a witch's bell!

Once this bell is rung, it will have a certain suppressive effect on the witchcraft of everyone else.

Under the vast sky, Qin Xiao, who had always remained calm and composed, now had a subtle change in his expression.

Within his body, the Silver Feather Divine Gu, which had been nurtured for ten years, immediately became somewhat weak.

"What an overbearing Nine Profound Witch Sound!"

The Nine Profound Witch Sounds also have different levels. Ordinary Nine Profound Sounds cannot suppress him or the Silver Feather Divine Gu that has reached the sixth level.

"Could it be... that she's the one who came?"

Although Qin Xiao was extremely displeased, he dared not show it on the surface and bowed respectfully towards the distance...

"Qin Xiao of the Witch God Sect greets fellow Daoist of the Nine Profound Red Dust Sect." With a refined smile that gave off a warm and welcoming feeling, Qin Xiao asked, "I wonder if the person who has come is the Holy Maiden of the Nine Profound Red Dust Sect... Holy Maiden Yuexi?"

As they were talking, the carriage, which had been in the distance on the horizon, arrived in the sky above the city square in the blink of an eye.

Upon hearing Qin Xiao's words, those cultivators who had even a slight understanding of the Nine Profound Red Dust Sect immediately felt their scalps tingle...

"Is it the Moon Dawn Saintess, hailed as the most promising candidate to surpass the founding ancestor of the Nine Profound Red Dust Sect?!" (End of Chapter)
