Chapter 209 Cangxuan Blessings, Shengzhou 60% (2/2)
”However, you've made one fatal mistake.”
“That is… you’ve overly underestimated the sacred dragon of my Zhou clan!”
”So what if you've reached the Divine Dwelling stage…”
“When the sacred dragon of my Zhou clan returns, it will be time for your Wu clan to pay its debts!”
…
High up in the sky.
The clouds were suddenly torn open as a giant shadow zoomed past. The shadow cleanly cut layer after layer of cloud into two, its speed as fast as a shooting star.
At closer inspection, one would discover that it was a giant boat. Countless ancient patterns had been carved into the boat’s body, giving off magnificent Genesis Qi undulations.
The boat was known as a Sky Breaker Shuttle.
It was a Genesis treasure used for rapid long distance travelling, and boasted extremely high speeds. In addition, it could withstand numerous natural elements, allowing it to travel freely.
On the giant boat was a beautiful hundred flowers pattern, indicating that it belonged to the Hundred Flowers Fairy Palace.
The passengers on board were the six envoys and the chosen geniuses from the Cangmang Continent.
The Cangmang Continent was extremely far from the continent where the six sacred sects were situated, and not all the continents along the way were equipped with teleportation arrays. Therefore, the only option was to travel through these continents. However, there were strong astral winds between the continents, which could only be crossed by a vessel such as the Sky Breaker Shuttle. Trying to cross without one was extremely exhausting, and not a feat that ordinary people would be capable of.
Given the cultivation of Zhou Yuan and the rest, they clearly did not possess the qualifications to cross between continents.
On a certain level on the giant boat.
Mu Wuji was seated crossed-legged as he puffed his pipe. Before him were Zhou Yuan, Yaoyao, and the other dozen or so geniuses that had been chosen to enter the Cangxuan Sect.
Zhou Yuan and Yaoyao were seated at the front, clearly the leaders of the group.
In the small group behind them was a familiar figure. It was the junior city lord of Saint Remains City, Xiao Tianxuan...
At the very beginning, Zhou Yuan had been rather astonished that Xiao Tianxuan had managed to enter the Cangxuan Sect. Later on, Mu Wuji explained that he had given his permission because the city lord had personally pleaded.
Although Zhou Yuan was not really fond of the guy who had given him quite a bit of trouble in the Saint Remains Domain, he did not make things difficult. After all, following Zhou Yuan’s rise in strength, Xiao Tianxuan was no longer a threat.
Xiao Tianxuan was a smart individual, and knew that his status as junior city lord was useless here. Hence, he was much more well-behaved on their journey, as if afraid that Zhou Yuan would target him.
”At our current speed, we should reach the Shengzhou Continent in a month…”
“Do all of you know of the Shengzhou Continent?” Mu Wuji felt that it was a good time to teach these little ones some common knowledge.
Everyone shook their heads.
Mu Wuji sighed and began to explain, “The Shengzhou Continent is the number one continent in Cangxuan Heaven. Legend says all of the other continents in Cangxuan Heaven were split off from Shengzhou Continent.”
“Hence, if one were to say that the total blessings of Cangxuan Heaven was ten, the Shengzhou Continent would be blessed with sixty percent. That’s why it has been called the gathering place of Genesis Qi…”
“The Shengzhou Continent’s vastness is far beyond your imagination, and every one of the six sacred sects have been established there. Although we six sacred sects are the strongest factions in Shengzhou Continent, there exists several sects with ancient roots and strong foundations that are not to be underestimated.”
After spending a good part of the day talking, Mu Wuji took one final puff of smoke, before he glanced at the group and slowly said, ”Besides all this, there is something I should tell all of you. Although you guys were selected by me, it does not mean that you will be able to truly become disciples of the Cangxuan Sect.”
These words caused everyone's expression to freeze for a moment.
”There are millions of continents in Cangxuan Heaven, and the geniuses of these continents will also be selected by the Cangxuan Sect. At the end of the day, the number of new disciples will likely be over ten thousand…”
”These individuals are the same as yourselves, each one an outstanding elite in their respective continents.”
”After you guys arrive at the Cangxuan Sect, all of the new disciples will have three months to acclimatise and train. After which will be the peak selection ceremony. And only by passing the peak selection ceremony would you be allowed to enter one of the seven peaks, and formally become disciples of the Cangxuan Sect.”
”About half of the participants will be eliminated during the peak selection ceremony. In other words, likely half or even more of you guys will be eliminated. These individuals can only become recorded disciples which may only train outside the peaks. Only after making sufficient contributions will they be permitted to join the seven peaks…”
Upon hearing these words, even Zhou Yuan's eyes widened slightly. To think that half would be eliminated… looks like it wasn't so easy to enter the Cangxuan Sect.
