Chapter 1425 The Youngster Who Ran Away Became Heaven Master
When the gentle and pleased voice of patriarch Cang Xuan reverberated throughout the world, countless people in Cangxuan Heaven felt deeply moved and all bowed sincerely in Zhou Yuan’s direction.
“Congratulations, Heaven Master!” The silent wors.h.i.+p stirred the entire Cangxuan Heaven. Universe Genesis Qi became much livelier, surging and pouring across all directions in endless waves.
The universe Genesis Qi was so rich that it became fine rain and drizzled down on every corner of Cangxuan Heaven.
Countless cultivators were overjoyed to see the drizzle because they could feel how pure the Genesis Qi contained in that Genesis Qi rain was and knew that it would have huge benefits to their cultivation when refined.
It was similar to an opportunity from heaven.
For example, when an emperor in the ordinary world ascends to the throne, he would announce amnesty. In the same way, the new Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven had to present gifts to everyone.
That gift would no doubt help countless people break through to the next cultivation stage and raise Cangxuan Heaven’s overall strength.
The people who received such benefits naturally felt even more respect and grat.i.tude for the new Heaven Master.
Sect master Qing Yang and the others peered up at the Genesis Qi shower sweeping across the heaven. Feeling the refres.h.i.+ng-cold rain fall on them, they s.h.i.+fted their gaze to the young figure in the distance. Their expressions turned particularly complex.
Who would have thought their Cangxuan Heaven could give birth to another Heaven Master years later?
Furthermore, the new Heaven Master was someone they never thought about.
After all, the newly appointed Heaven Master was just a new disciple of the Cangxuan Sect just over ten years ago.
“Sect master Qing Yang, your Cangxuan Sect has all the Blessing of Cangxuan Heaven.” Heaven Sword Sovereign sighed enviously.
Back when patriarch Cang Xuan was promoted to the position of Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven, he founded the Cangxuan Sect and it was always in the limelight, dominating the entire Cangxuan Heaven for years. After years, even though patriarch Cang Xuan had perished, the new Heaven Master was again from the Cangxuan Sect.
It could easily be imagined that the Cangxuan Sect would return to the peak and again become the most extraordinary sect in Cangxuan Heaven.
Sect master Qing Yang smiled, unable to hide the joy in his eyes.“Brother Heaven Sword, you can’t blame me. All sacred sects were present in the Saint Remains Domain back then, but Zhou Yuan chose our Cangxuan Sect in the end. This is fate.”
The sect masters of the other great sacred sects shook their heads with bitter smiles. In their eyes, the Saint Remains Domain was just a little a.s.sessment and they didn’t think much about it at the time. But who would have thought a Heaven Master would emerge from such a remote place?
If they could turn back time, they wouldn’t care about their faces and s.n.a.t.c.h Zhou Yuan into their sects no matter what.
Chi Jing, Su Youwei, Wu Yao, Zhao Mushen and others stared dazedly at Zhou Yuan, who exuded a terrifying oppressive pressure. Who would have thought Zhou Yuan would all of a sudden become the Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven. Such a dramatic change felt like a dream to them.
Although Cangxuan Heaven was ranked last among all-heavens and it had many defects, the Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven was still a Heaven Master!
It was everyone’s dream to hold the authority of a heaven.
Even if Zhou Yuan hadn’t reached the Saint stage, true Saints would treat him as though he had the same status as them because Zhou Yuan, in a sense, had reached the pinnacle level of all-heavens.
On a mountain in the distance, Zuoqiu Qingyu, Luluo, Li Chunjun, Ning Zhan, Zhen Xu and others also cast their gaze his way. Their expressions were somewhat complicated, but there was also undisguisable surprise and joy.
“It seems like I can cling to someone influential in the future. My good brother is the Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven, who would dare annoy me now?” With her hands on her hips, Luluo said with a smug smile.
Li Chunjun said seriously, “Given Zhou Yuan’s talent and potential, it’s only a matter of time before he becomes a Saint. He wouldn’t be inferior to ordinary Saints in the future, but in order to protect the people in Cangxuan heaven, he willingly took on the position of Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven. What he did…”
A smile came to his wooden face. “I really admire him.”
The people around all stared surprised at him. The most talented among them was Zhou Yuan, and after Zhou Yuan, it was Li Chunjun.
Besides practicing swords, Li Chunjun wasn’t concerned about anything else. But they all knew how prideful he was, and since he said he really admired Zhou Yuan, it could more than enough show how much he agreed and approved of Zhou Yuan’s action.
Zuoqiu Qingyu and the others nodded their heads in agreement. They also felt very proud that their little friend could reach such a level and even shouldered the hope of all people in Cangxuan Heaven.
In another direction, Chu Qing, Li Qingchan, Kong Sheng and other Cangxuan Sect elites sighed. “Who would have thought that our junior brother would inherit patriarch’s position…”
Ye Ge smiled slightly. “Speaking of which, Kong Sheng disliked him a lot back then and had provoked him many times.”
Kong Sheng immediately flushed with embarra.s.sment and glared at Ye Ge. “Why do you still bring up the things in the past? When did you become a woman?”
“What"s wrong with women?” Li Qingchan glared coldly at him.
Kong Sheng suppressed his fury. He didn’t dare to yell at Li Qingchan.
Chu Qing patted him on the shoulder, comforting, “It doesn’t matter. I think it’s a glorious past that belongs to you alone. When new disciples join the Cangxuan Sect, you can tell them that you created trouble for our Heaven Master Zhou Yuan every day when he was still at the Cangxuan Sect.”
The veins on Kong Sheng’s forehead throbbed as he said through gritted teeth. “Get lost!”
…
While everyone was filled with joy and surprise, Sheng Yuan’s illusory body on the altar grew increasingly icy-cold. Although he was only a Saint Spirit on the verge of fading, he still sensed strong malice and disgust.
It came from the entire Cangxuan Heaven.
That heaven was beginning to target him.
He understood that this was because a new controller was born in Cangxuan Heaven, and those who meddled with the controller’s will, even if they were at the Saint stage, would be affected.
Let alone he was now just a Saint Spirit that had been corroded.
“How did it turn into this…”
Therefore, Sheng Yuan’s heart had been constantly sinking ever since Zhou Yuan endured the tribulation of heaven"s will. He mumbled to himself, and even his face twisted fiercely.
“How could you withstand the tribulation of heaven?!” He roared.
It was a test that only Saints could withstand but Zhou Yuan was just at the Law Domain stage yet he became the Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven!
He took the position that Sheng Yuan had planned and worked so hard for years!
Sheng Yuan felt incredibly uncomfortable like thousands of ants biting his heart. It was a kind of jealousy.
Zhou Yuan flicked his fingers and universe Genesis Qi came gathering towards him, forming an ink-black robe. The robe was adorned with luxurious and delicate gold details. As it shone mysteriously, ancient Genesis runes emerged one after another. Each one, although obscure and primitive, contained incredibly vast powers.
It was the Heaven Master Robe!
A mysterious mark emerged between his brows that everyone was terrified to look directly at.
It was the mark of the Heaven Master!
Draped in the robe and wearing the heaven mark, Zhou Yuan received the wors.h.i.+p from universe Genesis Qi and the respect of millions of people. He could be said to be the focus of heaven and earth.
He expressionlessly bowed his head and then turned to look at Sheng Yuan.
Intense killing intent flashed across his eyes.
“Sheng Yuan, it’s time we settle the grudges between us once and for all.”
