Chapter 2563: The Unrivaled?

In the City Lord Office, the various cultivators had stern expressions as they watched the approaching figures.

As expected, these two major forces had arrived long ago. They had snuck their way into the City Lord Office with the cover of this fest in Tianyan City.

The lineup of this crowd was very powerful. The leader was already a prominent figure many years ago. The top cultivators of the Divine Prefecture naturally all recognized him.

“It is Dark Saint Hua Yunting,” someone said.

“There is also Evil Sage Mo Qingge,” another noted.

When the Taishang Domain Chief saw these two figures, his expression turned serious. Many giant-level figures from the Divine Prefecture got up and appeared exceptionally stern.

It was apparent that these two leaders that had arrived in the Divine Prefecture made even the giant-level figures from the Divine Prefecture feel pressured and shocked.

Dark Saint Hua Yunting was from the royalty of the Dark Court. His standing was unparalleled. He was one of the most powerful figures under the ruler of the Dark Court, the existence that stood as the Dark Court’s true core. In the war more than four centuries ago, countless powerful figures perished in his hands. The giant-level figures from the Divine Prefecture had a deep impression of him.

Evil Sage Mo Qingge was the same. Although he was given the t.i.tle of Evil Sage, he had a graceful bearing and was extremely refined. He appeared like a gentleman. Only his eyes made others fearful of him. His hands were stained with the blood of countless victims, yet his white robes were immaculate.

Now, in this chaotic era, the various worlds were no longer peaceful. Figures like these had been in seclusion for centuries. However, they had now come to the Divine Prefecture. The significance of this did not need to be elaborated upon. In this chaotic era, the major worlds were already making preparations for war.

Now, the cultivators of two major worlds had arrived. They must have wanted to see what the current power of the Divine Prefecture was like.

Ye Futian looked at the two figures. Had the strongest figures of the Dark World and the Evil Emperor Realm arrived in the Divine Prefecture?

These two figures were known as Dark Saint and Evil Sage. Their abilities and standing were unquestionable.

“How do you wish to test your cultivation?” asked Dark Saint Hua Yunting. His gaze swept over the crowd, stopping over w.a.n.g Xiao’s figure for a brief moment. Right then, w.a.n.g Xiao stood there as though he was the sole protagonist. A formless aura emanated from him. From the City Lord Office, divine light pierced the heavens. A vast divine might pressed down on Tianyan City. Everyone in Tianyan City could feel the heavenly might.

“It is the emperor’s might!” someone exclaimed.

The cultivators of Tianyan City felt their hearts tremble. w.a.n.g Xiao was communicating with imperial arms.

Even when facing two giant-level figures who stood at the top of two major worlds, w.a.n.g Xiao was unshaken. He showed no signs of fear and faced them head-on.

The Lord of Tianyan City was used to seeing this scene. At the same time, he felt relieved. Before this, he had always prevented w.a.n.g Xiao from showing himself to the world. He was worried that accidents would happen. Now, who in the world dared to touch w.a.n.g Xiao?

Who could touch him?

w.a.n.g Xiao could make imperial arms appear with a mere thought. So what if he was against Dark Saint and Evil Sage? If anyone dared to act recklessly, they would die in Tianyan City.

His grandson, w.a.n.g Xiao, was without equal below the Great Emperor. He did not fear any cultivator.

Moreover, Tianyan City was their territory. Whoever came had to come crawling.

Hua Yunting and Mo Qingge also cast a deep glance in the direction of the City Lord Office. Both of them had sensed the emperor’s might. They never imagined that such a monstrous figure would actually appear in the w.a.n.g family of the Ancient G.o.d Clan of Tianyan City. He was a major threat.

However, aside from w.a.n.g Xiao, nothing else during the fest in Tianyan City set off any alarms. Everything had appeared normal, so they had not thought much about it.

“You can’t compete with me in forging, so why don’t we try martial arts?” asked w.a.n.g Xiao as he looked the other party in the eye. His tone was cold, indifferent, and arrogant.

“If it were forging, only you could win,” Hua Yunting said casually. “Since you wish to try, my men will naturally oblige. We also wish to see the level of cultivation of the current prominent figures of the Divine Prefecture.”

When they heard the conversation between them, all the cultivators in Tianyan City felt their hearts tremble. They never imagined that aside from the Armorer Compet.i.tion, they would also witness a battle between the top figures of a few major worlds during this fest.

This was no longer just a compet.i.tion between the Proud Sons of Heaven of the Divine Prefecture. It was a contest between the Divine Prefecture and two G.o.d-level forces of the Dark World and the Empty Divine Realm.

Buzz. A figure charged up into the clouds and gazed down from high above. The cultivator was none other than w.a.n.g Yu from the City Lord Office, who was at the peak of the Renhuang Plane. Golden flame enveloped his body as his divine light shone brilliantly. His aura loomed over the vast s.p.a.ce.

w.a.n.g Yu lowered his head and glanced at the black-robed armorer who defeated him. The latter was the same person who eliminated Master Meng Yan. w.a.n.g Yu said, “I shall experience your cultivation myself.”

The black-robed armorer glanced at him, then he took to the sky and similarly appeared in the s.p.a.ce above the City Lord Office.

This black-robed armorer was a prestigious blacksmith in the Dark World. He was a.s.signed to come and join the Armorer Compet.i.tion this time, and he successfully defeated Meng Yan and w.a.n.g Yu.

At the same time, in the corner of Tianyan City, Meng Yan was also observing the scene in the sky. He sighed. His failure to advance in the compet.i.tion did not seem so bad now that he knew that he had lost to a cultivator from the Dark World. The other party came prepared. On the other hand, he was overconfident, thinking that he would surely be able to join the City Lord Office. He was eliminated because of this.

How strong were the combat abilities of these armorers? Countless cultivators in Tianyan City wondered. All of them fixed their gazes on the sky excitedly.

w.a.n.g Yu attacked right away. Moreover, he attacked using the divine arm he forged. It was the same with Meng Yan. They competed with each other in the Armorer Compet.i.tion. Now, it was fair for them to use the weapons they manufactured themselves in battle.

A destructive battle instantly erupted in the sky. w.a.n.g Yu’s attack was overbearing. He kept charging forward and suppressed his opponent again and again. He seized the absolute advantage in the battle.

Even though the black-robed armorer had won in the Armorer Compet.i.tion, it seemed like his combat ability was weaker than that of w.a.n.g Yu, the cultivators of Tianyan City thought to themselves. w.a.n.g Yu was also a talented figure in the w.a.n.g family of the Ancient G.o.d Clan. He did not forsake his cultivation even though he specialized in forging. On the other hand, the black-robed armorer was invited by the Dark Court to join this event. He had exceptional forging skills. His combat ability was rather strong too, but it paled slightly in comparison to his forging skills.

The divine arm that w.a.n.g Yu forged was a solar spear. When the spear struck, a flaring sun appeared behind the cultivator. The sunlight was blinding and contained very powerful attack power. In the end, the black-robed armorer was forced to retreat under the relentless attacks of w.a.n.g Yu. His facial expression was a little ugly after he lost the match.

w.a.n.g Yu kept his promise and did not deliver any fatal blows to him. The black-robed armorer was reluctant to admit defeat and seemingly wanted to continue the battle. However, Hua Yunting ordered, “Stand down.”

The black-robed armorer turned around. He bowed and complied, saying, “Yes, sir.”

Then, he left directly. The authority of the Dark Saint was perfectly demonstrated through this scene.

“You, go and try,” ordered Hua Yunting towards a cultivator who stood behind him. A person emerged from the line. He was a youth in black robes. His aura was menacing. Unlike the other person, who was a guest armorer, this youth was a bona fide member from the Dark Court.

“The battle between cultivators should, of course, involve cultivators. w.a.n.g Yu, stand down too,” w.a.n.g Xiao ordered. w.a.n.g Yu retreated upon hearing the instruction.

w.a.n.g Xiao turned around and looked at a person. A cultivator came forth.

He was w.a.n.g Mian from Tianyan City.

In the past, w.a.n.g Mian was acknowledged as the successor of Tianyan City. His combat ability was undoubtedly top-notch. Before w.a.n.g Xiao made a name for himself, w.a.n.g Mian was crowned the top monstrous figure of Tianyan City.

The two cultivators went up into the high heavens. w.a.n.g Mian’s will s.h.i.+fted. Immediately, divine walls appeared and sealed off the s.p.a.ce, forming a domain of the Great Path.

Buzz. The figure of the black-robed cultivator flashed, and a black hole appeared. It was terrifying as it intended to swallow everything around them. A dark spear materialized directly in front of w.a.n.g Mian. A divine wall surfaced. This divine wall was carved with countless runes and ancient characters. The black hole tried to engulf the divine wall while the spear stabbed into it. Both attacks could not penetrate through the defense of the divine wall.

Everyone in the City Lord Office was confident about w.a.n.g Mian’s ability. They would not doubt his strength. w.a.n.g Mian had been defeated before, but that was because his opponent was Ye Futian.

The Lord of Tianyan City stared intently at the battlefield. His expression was indifferent. The cultivators from the two major worlds barged into Tianyan City, but things would not go as they wished. All of them would instead be defeated. Today was destined to be the day when w.a.n.g Xiao made his name renowned throughout the entire Divine Prefecture. From today onwards, everyone would know his name.

As expected, this battle also ended without any suspense. Even though the foe was powerful, w.a.n.g Mian still managed to defeat him quickly.

After the other party retreated, the City Lord Office fell silent. Even the arrival of the cultivators from the two major worlds could not pose a threat to the w.a.n.g family of Tianyan City.

Perhaps, the cultivators from the two major worlds had come this time to check things out in the current Divine Prefecture. They had no intention to battle. Hence, their top figures were not in this lineup. After all, the battles took place because w.a.n.g Xiao asked for it.

There were still others who were eager to challenge the cultivators of Tianyan City. However, they were stopped by Hua Yunting and Mo Qingge.

They were in the territory of the Divine Prefecture, after all.

Right at this moment, a figure emerged from the crowd in the City Lord Office. He strode towards the center.

“Master Changkong,” said w.a.n.g Teng as he revealed a strange look. As he called out, the silver-masked figure still stepped forward and walked towards the center of the crowd.

The person who had walked out—Silver Spear Changkong—was naturally Ye Futian.

Today, Tianyan City rallied the various forces of the Divine Prefecture and were planning to summon imperial arms to deal with the Ziwei Segmentum. Since he was coincidentally here, how could he not do anything about it?

w.a.n.g Xiao was the successor of Tianyan the Great and the heir of Tianyan City. He was glorious and without equal in the Divine Prefecture.

He wanted to summon imperial arms to destroy the Ziwei Segmentum and kill Ye Futian.

The various forces of the Divine Prefecture answered his call.

Huh? Many people looked towards Ye Futian’s figure. What was he planning to do?

Xi Chiyao was also looking at Ye Futian. A smile appeared on her face. As expected, this fellow could not take it any longer!
