352 Battle to Be the Champion (2)
As soon as Jiang Ming said this, the cultivators around them immediately started gossiping and looked at him in shock.
Liu Xuantong was definitely one of the strongest people here. Even the strongest person in the various grotto-heavens and Blessed Lands would not dare say that he could defeat him. Moreover, Liu Xuantong had a fierce temperament and had killed many people. How could this random cultivator dare provoke him like this?
“Have you seen this person before?”
“I’ve never seen him before. Is he some genius from an unknown sect?”
Many cultivators were speculating. However, they could not come to a conclusion.
“You’re courting death!” Liu Xuantong’s eyes turned cold, and the line on his forehead seemed ready to open at any moment.
A blurry shadow of an old tree quietly appeared in front of Jiang Ming. With a slight shake, the mysterious force that came at him dissipated.
Huai Mei’s figure had appeared beside Zhu An’an and Jiang Ming at some point in time. There was a locust tree swaying in each of her eyes.
“Huai Mei, how dare you block me? Do you want to die right now?” Liu Xuantong asked coldly.
Huai Mei’s expression was indifferent as she shook her head. Her voice was as light as ever, “Liu Xuantong, you can’t hurt this girl. If you accidentally hurt her, I’m afraid you’ll die miserably. I’m saving your life.”
“Why would I be afraid of a little girl?” Liu Xuantong sneered.
“Really?” Huai Mei asked with a faint smile. “She’s our young master’s treasure. The young master just broke through to the Golden Core Realm not long ago. This girl is extremely important to his next step in breaking through.”
Liu Xuantong’s expression changed slightly, “I see.”
Huai Mei’s eyes flickered. She just stared at him with a smile and did not say anything else.
“Alright, since Huai Mei has come forward, I’ll show the Ghost Spirit Sect some respect today!” Liu Xuantong suddenly changed the topic and did not continue discussing Zhu An’an’s identity. It seemed that he was extremely afraid of the young master that Huai Mei had mentioned.
He glanced at Jiang Ming one last time. “Brat, I’m even more convinced now that you’ve definitely killed a cultivator of the Divine Eye Sect. Remember me! I’m Liu Xuantong of the Divine Eye Sect! If you’re arrogant enough, come up on the Saint Cultivation Platform once it’s fully opened. Let’s see how long you can stand against me!”
After saying that, Liu Xuantong left with his followers.
“Liu Xuantong’s core has already formed. The followers around him are all extraordinary geniuses. There are geniuses from all over the Feather Kingdom here, why would Liu Xuantong find fault with this random cultivator? This person doesn’t seem to have said anything bad about the Divine Eye Sect.” someone said in a low voice, extremely puzzled by what had just happened.
“Hehe, you guys don’t know the truth of this, right?” A genius from a cultivation family in the Feather Country lowered his voice and said meaningfully, “The Divine Eye Sect wants to bet on Liu Xuantong. When the time comes, one person will be able to ascend to the heavens. However, the situation of the grotto-heavens and blessed lands in the Feather Kingdom has already been set. How can they casually start trouble? Over the years, the Divine Eye Sect has been trying to rope in a few grotto-heavens and blessed lands in order to obtain the support of a certain grotto-heaven. Among the three great grotto-heavens of the Feather Kingdom, the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven is the most respected. If they can obtain the support of the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven, the path of the Divine Eye Sect to become a blessed land will naturally be much smoother. Someone is recklessly judging the master of the Immortal Feather Grotto-heaven. Liu Xuantong has seized the opportunity. Naturally, he has to show his respect for the Immortal Feather Grotto-heaven.”
A young man listened for a long time and revealed a look of realization. “To put it bluntly, he’s just a bootlicker!”
There was a burst of low laughter around them, and the crowd gradually dispersed. Before they left, they cast pitying looks at Jiang Ming. Offending such a future powerhouse of the Feather Kingdom was truly courting death.
When most of the cultivators here had dispersed, Huai Mei took a light breath and suppressed the impatience in her heart. She looked at Jiang Ming again. “I don’t care if you stir up trouble or court death. However, don’t drag Zhu An’an into this. Otherwise, no one can save you!”
Soon, Huai Mei turned around and left, returning to the Ghost Spirit Sect’s group.
“Mister, did I say something wrong and cause you trouble?” Zhu An’an lowered her head and asked regretfully. “I’ve heard of Liu Xuantong. He kills people like flies and has a bad reputation. You must be careful.”
Seeing Zhu An’an’s eyes turn red, Jiang Ming could not help but laugh. He ruffled her hair and said, “You didn’t say anything wrong. It’s just that Liu Xuantong is stupid. Don’t worry, when I ascend the Saint Cultivation Platform, I will kill Liu Xuantong and take the top spot. It’s just a small matter!”
“Mister, you…” Zhu An’an was stunned and looked at Jiang Ming in a daze.
“Haha, is it that easy to impress you?” Jiang Ming smiled.
“I’m just giving you encouragement! I didn’t expect you to have such a big head!”
Jiang Ming rolled his eyes. He could not be bothered with this silly little girl.
Yang Changshan stood behind the two of them and watched with a smile. From time to time, he glanced at the Saint Cultivation Platform that was still pouring down the Saint light. A strange look flashed in his eyes. However, no one knew what he was thinking.
Time gradually passed. Jiang Ming did not have any intention of befriending anyone else, nor did he look for Wu Hen. He just stayed in a corner, quietly polishing his cultivation, and refining his spells and sword intent.
Not long after Jiang Ming ascended the peak, there were also streaks of multicolored light flying over. They were all rushing over to this shocking opportunity.
What shocked the cultivators even more was that when the Saint Cultivation Platform was about to open, most of the people who rushed over were young geniuses. Many of them had left a reputation in the world of immortal cultivation and were top existences among their peers.
“Is that Xu Yi from the Green Feather Dao Academy? He was born in the mortal world and had displayed his peerless talent at the Qi Refinement Realm. Although it’s not a grotto-heaven, the Green Feather Cultivation College where he’s from is definitely the most detached faction in the Feather Kingdom.”
“Is that Monk Xiu Ming from the Xuan Kong Temple? He’s walking the path of body refinement. The seniors who were defeated by him have all successfully broken through to the Golden Core Realm. However, he’s still in the Foundation Establishment Realm. I heard that a few years ago, he went to a place where immortal cultivation was cut off to seek a stronger path of body refinement. It seems that he has already made a breakthrough.”
“There’s also the Chasing Moon Lake’s genius, Si Yue. She’s only sixteen. However, she’s already at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm. That sect is ruthless. Every successor that comes out is terrifying.”
“Miss Huai, that person from the Spirit Silkworm Mountain doesn’t seem to have come.” Within the Ghost Spirit Sect’s group, a young woman whispered into Huai Mei’s ear.
“How could he miss such a grand event!” Huai Mei ended her meditation and opened her eyes. She stood up and looked at the group of cultivators in a certain area. Her eyes fell on a certain figure.
“He has already arrived. However, he has undergone another transformation. Ordinary people are no longer able to recognize him. It’s suspected that the ruins once belonged to a certain branch of the blessed land of immortal cultivation. This time around, it’s probably one of the biggest dark horses.”
“Miss Huai, you’ve obtained the Ghost Locust Tree’s recognition and its mark. You will definitely suppress everyone and become the champion!” the young woman beside her hurriedly said.
“Impossible!” Huai Mei shook her head. There was a trace of loneliness in her eyes.” Even if he is the Holy Son of the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land, although his potential is extraordinary, he is only at the Foundation Establishment Realm and has yet to fully mature. I have the Ghost Locust Tree’s brand on me. Therefore, I am not afraid of him. However, with one person here, the chances of others getting anything at all are probably less than ten percent.”
“Who is it?” The Ghost Spirit Sect’s female disciples were stunned. Who could be more powerful than the Holy Son?
“That swordsman from the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven.” There was a hint of helplessness in Huai Mei’s voice. “I received news that the inheritance of the Immortal Feather Grotto-Heaven’s origin was obtained by that person!”
“What is it? How is that possible?”
