Chapter 886: Chapter 569: Overlord Clan, Heavenly Sword Sect, Demon Level Prodigies! (Part 2)
The burly man casually put away the giant flying boat treasure and was the first to descend.
Once on the platform, he scanned the area; his gaze paused only briefly upon seeing Senior Sister Ye and her companions in the corner.
Everyone else was quickly swept by his gaze.
Finally, his attention settled on a middle-aged man in a black robe with a slender build.
"Your spot isn’t bad. Give it up."
Instantly, all eyes focused on that man.
Senior Sister Ye and her companions recognized him as the person who earlier disdained their chatter.
In a moment, Chu Xiaoqing and the others looked on with some schadenfreude.
They were curious to see if, facing someone from the Overlord Clan now, he could still maintain that arrogant posture.
Under the gaze of so many, the middle-aged man’s face flushed red.
He felt a surge of anger but shivered in his heart under the burly man’s gaze, who was called Ba Tian.
Ultimately, after his face turned red and then green, he snorted coldly and left with a stern look, transforming into a beam of light.
Even the cultivators around him rose and moved aside, leaving a large empty space.
The burly man, called Ba Tian, laughed seeing them so tactful.
Then he gestured invitingly, "Brother Shen, please."
"There’s no need for such formality, Brother Ba Tian."
The young man with starry brows and sword-like eyes sighed.
He didn’t refuse and directly sat where the black-robed man had been.
"Alright, find a spot and start contemplating for yourself."
Ba Tian waved his hand, addressing those behind him.
"Yes!"
The dozen or so clan members of the Overlord Clan echoed and proceeded to sit cross-legged around the area.
As they settled down to contemplate and study the inscriptions, calm returned to the platform.
Except for the Overlord Clan members, everyone else was too distracted to cultivate anymore.
All of them were cautiously watching Ba Tian and his group.
Even Senior Sister Ye and her companions were no exception.
"Senior Sister, it’s unexpected that not only the Overlord Clan came, but the Heavenly Sword Sect also arrived."
Chu Xiaoqing whispered through Divine Soul Transmission to her seniors, an undertone of shock in her voice.
"The man called Ba Tian must be the Direct Lineage Daoist of this generation of the Overlord Clan.
He not only possesses a flawless Innate Top-grade Golden Core tempered by nine tribulation thunders.
But it is said he broke through to the seventh transformation, entering the late-stage Golden Core Realm, over ten years ago.
Now, after many years, we don’t know what realm he has reached.
Whether it’s the eighth or maybe even the ninth transformation of Golden Core perfection."
Zixiao, dressed in purple, also expressed shock.
"And the young man called Brother Shen, he should be Shen Cangfeng, reputedly the most outstanding disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect in nearly a thousand years."
Senior Sister Ye also transmitted with a serious expression.
"This Shen Cangfeng is one of the twelve direct lineage true disciples of the current Inner Sect of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
It’s said he has truly begun practicing the Heavenly Sword Sect’s ’Hidden Heaven Sword Scripture,’ with cultivation levels that are profound and unfathomable.
Back when he joined the Heavenly Sword Sect, it took him less than fifty years to overcome nine layers of Dao Tribulation Thunder, condensing a perfectly flawless Innate Top-grade Golden Core.
He was stunning, his fame spreading far and wide.
Now, decades later, his cultivation has surely entered the late-stage Golden Core Realm.
Moreover, as a sword cultivator, his offensive power is unparalleled.
In terms of pure attack strength, he might be even more formidable than other flawless Innate Top-grade Golden Core cultivators!"
"It’s unexpected that even the distant Overlord Clan and Heavenly Sword Sect have come.
And they sent such exceptional talents as Ba Tian and Shen Cangfeng.
It seems the upcoming secret realm emerging from the Tianshu Divine Mountain is even more extraordinary than we imagined!"
Senior Sister Ye and her companions were filled with both shock and heaviness.
After all, whether it’s the Overlord Clan or the Heavenly Sword Sect, they are some of the most powerful entities across the Heavenly Origin Great World.
Compared to them, their Qiankun Sect is significantly dwarfed.
And the thought that even such demon-like geniuses as Ba Tian and Shen Cangfeng might enter the secret realm.
Senior Sister Ye and the others couldn’t help but feel a bit tense.
In the presence of these incredibly strong Golden Core Realm cultivators, do they really have a chance to obtain any fortuitous encounters?
"Even figures like Ba Tian and Shen Cangfeng have come over..."
Beside them, the Five Treasure Taoist was also taken aback.
He never expected this anomaly of the Tianshu Divine Mountain would attract such demon-level geniuses here.
"It seems the secret realm being nurtured by the Tianshu Divine Mountain this time must be quite extraordinary.
It’s best to be cautious, and stay with Mr. Chen on the outskirts of the secret realm to find some edge opportunities, but never venture deep."
Five Treasure Taoist immediately made a decision in his heart.
The sudden arrival of the Overlord Clan members caused quite a stir among Qiankun Sect’s disciples.
Just then, Chu Xiaoqing suddenly commented, "Hmm? Brother Chen hasn’t woken up yet?"
The other people also looked over, only to see Lu Qing with his eyes closed and a serene expression, clearly still in meditation.
It was then they realized that they hadn’t heard Lu Qing’s voice when the Overlord Clan arrived.
This means that from beginning to end, Lu Qing was focused on his meditation and cultivation, wholly unaffected by external commotion.
Realizing this, everyone was full of admiration.
Indeed, Mr. Chen’s Dao Heart is remarkably firm, he can still cultivate calmly even in such circumstances.
The little beast nestled in Lu Qing’s embrace, Little Li, sensing the eyes of the crowd, suddenly lifted its head and showed a warning look.
Chu Xiaoqing and her companions immediately halted in their tracks, feeling a chill.
Their gazes towards Little Li became uncertain and suspicious.
They were, of course, familiar with Lu Qing’s spiritual beast.
Since the first time they met Lu Qing, it stood on his shoulder.
After that, it either perched atop Lu Qing’s head or snuggled into his embrace for a nap.
Lu Qing seemed to spoil this spiritual beast a great deal.
No matter where he was, he would take it along.
Even someone like Chu Xiaoqing had long been charmed by Little Li’s cute appearance.
But this little beast always remained aloof, never caring to acknowledge Chu Xiaoqing and her companions, nearly ignoring them entirely.
More than once, she tried to get close to Little Li, but without success.
Though Little Li’s appearance is unique and his behavior shows a notable spiritual nature.
Chu Xiaoqing and her companions always viewed it as merely a particularly unique and cute spiritual beast.
They never really sensed it having any great power.
However now, with Little Li showing a warning expression.
For some reason, they felt a chill rise up from the depths of their hearts, and were startled.
Could it be, that this seemingly harmless little beast is actually some kind of powerful spiritual beast?
As Little Li hid its cultivation level, making it difficult for Senior Sister Ye and the others to discern its true nature, they looked at each other in surprise.
Even the Five Treasure Taoist was taken aback once more.
He had spent considerable time with Lu Qing in recent days.
While observing Lu Qing, he naturally also noticed this little beast that Lu Qing always carried.
Yet, in his eyes, besides being highly intelligent, this little beast never seemed particularly extraordinary.
But just now, when Little Li glared a warning, even he felt a hint of wariness in his heart.
He immediately knew he had been mistaken all this time.
This beast that spent most of its time snuggled in Lu Qing’s embrace sleeping each day was far from simple.
Seeing Senior Sister Ye and the others stunned by its gaze, without intent to disrupt Lu Qing’s meditation.
Only then did Little Li withdraw its gaze, reverting to its harmless and merely adorable appearance.
However, this scene made Senior Sister Ye and the others even more certain.
This colorful little beast that sleeps daily in Mr. Chen’s arms is definitely not ordinary!
As the group’s emotions fluctuated.
Suddenly, their bodies tensed again.
They felt an incomparably powerful Sword Intent erupt beside them.
Jerking their heads around, they saw this terrifying Sword Intent.
