Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 499: Chapter 499: Flamboyant Debut! (2nd Release)

Early the next morning, Elder Yao sent the list of ten disciples participating in the Tri-Sect Martial Tournament to the Main Peak Hall.

Accompanying him, aside from the Peak Masters of various peaks, were also the nine Asking Immortal Sect Disciples who had been recommended.

Of course, the last spot naturally went to Lin Xian’er.

Today, Lin Xian’er was dressed in a tight-fitting outfit, exuding a rather spirited and valiant aura.

Ling Feng was seated on the Sect Leader’s Throne, his gaze surveying the nine young disciples inside the hall; of course, most of them were a few years older than him. However, in the path of Martial Arts, it’s always the gifted who lead the way.

”Greetings, Sect Leader!”

All disciples bowed respectfully to Ling Feng with loud voices.

”Mmh, rise, all of you!”

Ling Feng nodded slightly. The condition of these people was still quite good, and he believed that with the Inheritance Techniques he brought back, their strength could advance by leaps and bounds in a few years.

At that time, they would truly become the backbone of the Asking Immortal Sect.

A sect with only a strong Sect Leader is ultimately not the righteous path.

”Sect Leader, all disciples are now ready and can set off for Thunder Cloud Peak to commence the Tri-Sect Martial Tournament,” Elder Yao said in a deep voice.

”Good, there’s no time to delay, let’s set off now.”

Ling Feng nodded and didn’t delay any further. Even with Qiankun Sect and Liuyun Sword Sect combined, he didn’t take them seriously.

After today, both of these major sects will submit to the Asking Immortal Sect!

...

Immortal Trace Mountain Range, blessed with spiritual essence.

Although those super-sects looked down upon this mountain range, for Second and Third-class sects, Immortal Trace Mountain Range was still considered a precious land of Grotto Heaven.

With Luofeng Canyon at its back, adjacent to the Great Wilderness Mountain Range to the east, and bordering the Endless Sea to the west...

One could say that the entire region around Immortal Trace Mountain Range was rich in resources and additionally contained numerous places suitable for hunting Low-level Demon Beasts and obtaining Demon Cores, which indeed benefitted the development of a sect massively.

It’s just that, after all, Hanwu County is considered ”a remote and poor area,” and those super-sects would not choose to establish sect grounds in such a place. Otherwise, there would likely be no opportunity for these so-called ”Top Three Sects” to establish their sects in this region.

Every three years, Asking Immortal Sect, Qiankun Sect, and Liuyun Sword Sect would hold the Tri-Sect Martial Tournament on Thunder Cloud Peak to determine the distribution of hunting and Spirit Plant resources around Immortal Trace Mountain Range.

Ling Feng hadn’t had much contact with Qiankun Sect before, but speaking of Liuyun Sword Sect, Ling Feng had slain quite a few of their disciples when he was still an Inner Sect Disciple of Asking Immortal Sect.

There was one who claimed he would sweep through the Inner Sect of Asking Immortal Sect, Di Jingtian, who had been blasted to death with a single punch from him.

Thinking back on it now, it felt like just yesterday.

After a while, a group of people spread their True Qi Wings and soared high into the sky, finally arriving at the top of a green mountain.

”Sect Leader, this is Thunder Cloud Mountain. Thunder Cloud Peak is at its summit. The Top Three Sects have set the rule that any sect coming here can only walk up the mountain, by agreement of the Top Three Sects,” Elder Yao explained melodically.

Ling Feng nodded; this was the same principle as when paying a tribute visit to a sect, where one could fly directly into the sect grounds but must walk from outside the mountain gate.

Each sect maintains its dignity, and the treaties set by the three Upper Sects concern the dignity of the Top Three Sects.

However, from today onward, there will no longer be a ”Top Three Sects.”

”Let’s go,” Ling Feng said with a faint smile, his steps leading him towards the mountain summit.

Lin Xian’er and dozens of other disciples and elders quickly followed behind him.

Atop Thunder Cloud Peak, a vast arena had been constructed. Beyond that, high platforms had been specially arranged for the Sect Leaders and Elders of the Top Three Sects to take their seats and watch.

At this moment, one of these platforms was already crowded with thirty or forty people, identifiable by their Daoist robes as disciples of the Qiankun Sect.

Seated in the foremost throne was a middle-aged Daoist, with thick eyebrows and large eyes, exuding an aura of command without anger.

This man’s aura seemed to be around the Second Level of the Origin Transformation Realm.

This middle-aged Daoist was none other than the Tianyun Taoist of the Qiankun Sect.

As the sect was located closest to Lingyun Peak, the Qiankun Sect had arrived first.

Tianyun Taoist stroked his beard lightly, a faint smile on his face, recalling a Magic Treasure he had acquired recently. He believed it could help him gain a decisive victory over the other two sects in the upcoming Sect Leaders’ battle.

”I’ve heard that the Liuyun Sword Sect has recently taken in an exceptional disciple, who should be quite prominent in the disciples’ battles.”

A wiry, goateed old Taoist standing next to Tianyun Taoist spoke in a low voice.

”Be at ease, Brother Cang Song, the disciples’ battle only accounts for thirty percent of the overall score. As for the Sect Leaders’ battle, I hold the winning hand,” Tianyun Taoist replied with a faint smile. ”Although Cao Tailai of the Liuyun Sword Sect has decent swordsmanship, he was already defeated by me three years ago. As for the Asking Immortal Sect, I’ve heard they’ve appointed a young man as their Sect Leader.”

Tianyun Taoist shook his head and laughed loudly, ”If it were that old man Duanmu Qingshan leading the sect, I might have some concerns about the Asking Immortal Sect. But a young upstart thrust into the situation, do you think he poses any threat to me?”

”That is true,” the Cang Song Taoist nodded, his gaze suddenly fixing on the mountain path ahead, he said in a deep voice, ”The disciples of the Asking Immortal Sect are here!”

”Hmm,” Tianyun Taoist focused his sharp gaze on the group from the Asking Immortal Sect, his eyes resting intently on the young man leading them.

”Hisss!” Upon closer inspection, Tianyun Taoist was taken aback and said in surprise, ”Strange, this young man is clearly only in the Magnetic Condensation Realm, yet why does his gaze seem so terrifying?”

Ling Feng had noticed an old Taoist sizing him up from the start, he wasn’t planning to show weakness. He intended to demonstrate the full strength of the Asking Immortal Sect, and so he had unleashed his Slaughter Sword Intent.

After all, Tianyun Taoist was just an old Daoist who hadn’t seen much of the world; how could he understand how formidable true talents could be?

”Hmph, no matter how strong his presence, the Magnetic Condensation Realm is just that, besides, I still have that treasure!”

Tianyun Taoist took a deep breath, looking now towards another mountain path.

Calculating the time, it seemed that the people from the Liuyun Sword Sect should be arriving soon.

Swish!

Just as the Asking Immortal Sect’s group began entering their designated viewing area, a different group nearly simultaneously ascended to the mountain top from another side of Thunder Cloud Peak.

The moment these people arrived, they drew their swords, pointed them towards the sky, thirty-six beams of Sword Qi mingling together, and a series of high-pitched roars merged into a mighty wave of sound that cleared the skies, an overwhelmingly grand display.

”The Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Sword Formation!”

Whooshing sounds filled the air!

Sword Qi crisscrossed in every direction as the disciples unleashed their flying swords. Stepping confidently on their Sword Blades, they landed gracefully onto the high platform and then sheathed their swords swiftly.

It must be said, it was quite a flamboyant way to make an entrance!

Ling Feng touched his nose, a barely concealed laugh in his heart. With such a flashy demonstration, were they trying to intimidate the other two sects?

However, strength was what really counted. He hoped they could still be as debonair when it was time to descend the mountain!
