Chapter 722 Lianyi (1/2)

In the mysterious domain.

Zhou Yuan, whose hand was still on the Cangxuan Saint Stamp, lifted his head to see the space above him being torn open. Through the crack, he saw many legendary figures above the thunderbolt pool...

These powerful figures exuded monstrous waves of energy that were enough to send the world quaking.

Zhou Yuan suddenly felt his scalp turn numb.

In that moment, their eyes were all gathered on him and it was clear that they were all bewildered to see him.

No one knew how much effort the influential figures of the various sects had exhausted for years to find the Cangxuan Saint Stamp hidden by patriarch Cang Xuan in order to become the new master of Cangxuan Heaven.

With the Cangxuan Saint Stamp now revealed to the world. The top experts had raced to its location right away, hoping to be the first to set eyes on the Cangxuan Saint Stamp. Who would have expected that someone else would arrive a step earlier.

“Haha, I was wondering who could have grasped such a great opportunity. It turns out to be a member of the Cangxuan Sect?”

Palace master Sheng Yuan smiled as he stared at Zhou Yuan. Given his status, he shouldn’t recognize a mere Cangxuan Sect disciple, but the battle between Zhou Yuan and Wu Huang had garnered the attention of the entire Shengzhou Continent. As such, he naturally remembered Zhou Yuan's face.

“It seems that your Cangxuan Sect is truly blessed by the heavens.” Palace master Sheng Yuan remarked ruminatively.

The eyes of the others flashed in thought.

They were honestly quite happy with the current situation in Cangxuan Heaven. After all, no one would like a heaven master above them, but of course, it would be acceptable if they could become the heaven master.

Sect master Qing Yang, peak master Lianyi and the others were somewhat surprised to see Zhou Yuan. They clearly had not expected him to appear here.

Old man Bai Mei couldn’t help but remark, “This kid is quite lucky.”

Even palace master Sheng Yuan had failed to find the Cangxuan Saint Stamp, and yet had it been discovered by Zhou Yuan, a Divine Dwelling expert. This was really unbelievable.

Peak master Ling Jun’s brows knitted together into a frown, “Unfortunately, too much good luck is not necessarily a good thing.”

In this situation, Zhou Yuan was akin to a little mouse among a group of lions and tigers. Even the slightest change would likely result in him dying.

“Zhou Yuan is a disciple of the Cangxuan Sect. We’ll protect him if there’s any danger.” stated sect master Qing Yang.

A single attack from any of the powerhouses present would instantly kill Zhou Yuan. Fortunately, he had the backing of the Cangxuan Sect, which meant no one here would indiscriminately kill him.

Thankfully for them, the experts present didn’t seem too affected by the fact that Zhou Yuan was the first to touch the Cangxuan Saint Stamp. They were evidently not worried that he would take away the Cangxuan Saint Stamp in front of them.

Because Zhou Yuan was too weak.

Not just anyone could take away a supreme sacred object like the Cangxuan Saint Stamp.

Therefore, after a brief period of astonishment, the powerhouses present retracted their gazes from Zhou Yuan.

The ones who could decide the eventual owner of the Cangxuan Saint Stamp was not a little Divine Dwelling stage disciple, but the top existences of Cangxuan Heaven...

So what if Zhou Yuan was the first to arrive and touch the Cangxuan Saint Stamp?

Palace master Sheng Yuan also didn’t waste time on an insignificant disciple. His eyes swept across the place as he smiled, “Everyone, we all know that our Cangxuan Heaven is ranked last among the nine heavens of Tianyuan World. At the end of the day, it is because the Cangxuan Saint Stamp had been kept hidden for so many years and we do not have a heaven master.

“Now that the Cangxuan Saint Stamp has finally appeared, perhaps it is heaven’s will for our Cangxuan Heaven gain a new heaven master.”

His voice rang out but was met with silence. Nobody answered. All eyes flickered in thought while the atmosphere seemed to solidify.

It was a long while later before sect master Qing Yang indifferently said, “Are you trying to say that you should be the new heaven master?”

Palace jmaster Sheng Yuan’s silver eyes flashed with a mysterious and heartless expression. The corners of his lips curved in a smile as he replied, “Patriarch Cang Xuan suppressed the entire Cangxuan Heaven back then and was extremely powerful, but was killed by my Sacred Palace in the end. In fact, it is my Sacred Palace’s greatest achievement.”

Sect master Qing Yang’s eyes instantly turned cold.
