Chapter 3295: Fiery Mountain Ranges
Ancestral Fire Sanctuary.
Uncle Feng stood outside a quiet courtyard and lowered his head slightly with a respectful expression.
“How did the four Sanctuaries know that he has the Green Lotus bloodline?”
A long time later, a voice sounded from the courtyard. Although it sounded like a question, there was a hint of authority!
Uncle Feng thought for a moment. “When he fought against the Dao Supremacy of Five Poisons Palace in Baldachin State, he released his Bloodline Phenomenon. That Dao Supremacy must have leaked it and it was spread by Saint Poison.”
“Why wasn’t that Dao Supremacy of Five Poisons Palace killed?”
The voice in the courtyard was cold.
Uncle Feng explained, “Even if we killed that Dao Supremacy, there were many poisonous insects in the surroundings watching the battle…”
“Then you should have killed all of those poisonous insects.”
Before Uncle Feng could finish, the person in the courtyard interrupted him.
“I lacked foresight. Master, please forgive me.”
When he sensed that the person in the courtyard was blaming him, Uncle Feng lowered his head hurriedly and admitted his mistake.
The surroundings instantly fell silent.
There was no response from the person in the courtyard for a long time and the atmosphere became extremely oppressive. Even with Uncle Feng’s cultivation, a layer of sweat appeared on his forehead—it was clear that he was terrified.
A moment later, Uncle Feng seemed to be unable to withstand the pressure and continued, “I went to persuade him to give up on this Heavenly Supremacies Battle. When he cultivates to the perfected Dao Comprehension realm and partic.i.p.ates in the next Heavenly Supremacies Battle, he has a higher chance of obtaining the Merits Gold Lotus.”
“What did he say?”
The voice in the courtyard sounded once more.
Uncle Feng said, “He’s a little stubborn and still wants to partic.i.p.ate in the Heavenly Supremacies Battle this time round. I couldn’t persuade him further.”
“However, don’t worry, Master. As long as his descent point is separated from those few from the Saint race, it will be difficult for them to encounter him in advance at the foot of the Fiery Mountain Ranges. Furthermore, with the Vermilion Bird Badge, he shouldn’t be in any danger.”
“There are only ten spots for the final battle. With those few from the Saint race around, he shouldn’t have the chance to enter the final battle, let alone come across them.”
The person in the courtyard fell silent once more.
Uncle Feng probed, “Should I appear and stop him forcefully?”
“No, ignore him.”
The person in the courtyard harrumphed softly. “It’ll teach him a lesson if he dies!”
Uncle Feng was silent. He did not know how he should reply to that, nor did he dare to casually.
…
The death of two people from the Sanctuaries caused quite a commotion in the Ancestral Fire Sanctuary.
In the major chiliocosm, no one or faction could challenge the few Sanctuaries!
However, this time round, someone killed two people from the Sanctuaries in public. One could imagine the commotion.
As the Heavenly Supremacies Battle approached, more and more cultivators from all over the major chiliocosm gathered in the Ancestral Fire Sanctuary. The deaths of two people from the Sanctuaries made the Heavenly Supremacy Meet even more eye-catching.
On this day.
The Heavenly Supremacies Battle officially began.
All the Heavenly Supremacy experts partic.i.p.ating in the battle had to head to a gigantic teleportation formation in the south of the Sanctuary to retrieve a Vermilion Bird Badge before entering the battlefield.
The Heavenly Supremacies Battle of the Ancestral Fire Sanctuary was divided into two parts.
It was divided into the elimination battle and the final battle.
For the elimination battle, they had to cross the four Fiery Mountain Ranges of the Ancestral Fire Sanctuary.
Only the fastest ten Heavenly Supremacies were qualified to enter the final battle!
It was said that these four Fiery Mountain Ranges had existed since the establishment of the Ancestral Fire Sanctuary. They were the Myriad Spirit Mountain Range, the Burning Heaven Mountain Range, the Six Ding Mountain Range and the Nether Mountain Range.
The four Fiery Mountain Ranges burned with the four great Heavenly Fires of the major chiliocosm all year round. They were the Myriad Spirit Ancient Fire, Burning Heaven Purple Fire, Six Ding Divine Fire and Nether Ghost Fire!
All the Heavenly Supremacy experts who partic.i.p.ated in the battle would be a.s.signed to the foot of the Myriad Spirit Mountain Range to cross the four mountain ranges in succession.
Once the elimination battle began, they could move at the same time and cross the first Fiery Mountain Range.
The moment the sky lit up, a large number of Heavenly Supremacy experts were already gathered around the gigantic teleportation formation to the south of the Sanctuary.
“Do you guys think that Su Zimo will still partic.i.p.ate in the Heavenly Supremacies Battle?”
“Why would he come? To die?!”
“Haha!”
Those words caused the surroundings to burst into laughter.
A cultivator said, “If I were Su Zimo, I would take advantage of the time when those few from the Saint race are partic.i.p.ating in the Heavenly Supremacies Battle to escape from this place.”
“Fufu.”
Someone at the side sneered, “Escaping from the Ancestral Fire Sanctuary is exactly what the few Sanctuaries want! Those few from the Saint race must have made arrangements outside the Ancestral Fire Sanctuary and won’t let him leave easily.”
Another person said, “In my opinion, the Ancestral Fire Sanctuary won’t let this person leave either.”
“Those four from the Saint race are here!”
Right then, a voice sounded from the crowd.
The four Saint race beings descended slowly from midair with terrifying auras. The initially dense crowd instantly made way for a large empty s.p.a.ce!
Most of the people present were Utmost Heavenly Supremacies. However, compared to the four Saint race beings, they were far inferior in terms of aura and status.
“Heh!”
A cultivator gloated. “Initially, the Utmost Heavenly Supremacies of the 49 Spirit Grounds of the South Region still had a chance to fight for the t.i.tle of peerless. With the four Saint race beings around, there’s no chance.”
“Not to mention fighting for the t.i.tle of the Peerless Heavenly Supremacy, they occupied four of the ten spots to enter the final battle alone.” Another person said.
Almost everyone knew that the four Fiery Mountain Ranges would definitely not be able to stop the four Saint race beings.
To the four Saint race beings, the only difference was who could cross the four Fiery Mountain Ranges faster.
“I’m afraid it won’t be just four spots.”
Suddenly, a cultivator said, “Look over there, the Saint race being of the Ancestral Fire Sanctuary has appeared as well!”
“It’s Utmost Heavenly Supremacy Zhu Liang!”
“Could he be partic.i.p.ating in the Heavenly Supremacies Battle as well?”
“This is going to be lively. A fight between the five Saint race beings is truly a rare grand occasion!”
If the Saint race being of the Ancestral Fire Sanctuary appeared, that would mean that there were only five of the ten spots for the final battle available for others.
“Why? Brother Zhu, do you want to give it a try too?”
When he saw Zhu Liang appear, Fu Cangtian of the Yin Yang Sanctuary raised his brow slightly and asked in a deep voice.
“Let’s go according to our previous bet.”
Zhu Liang smiled gently.
Previously in the Vermilion Bird Hall, the four Saint race beings had once said that the Creation Green Lotus would belong to whoever obtained the t.i.tle of the Peerless Heavenly Supremacy!
Naturally, Zhu Liang was tempted by the Creation Green Lotus as well.
However, Su Zimo should be protected by a big shot of the Saint race. In fact, even he could not do anything in the Ancestral Fire Sanctuary.
Since that was the case, Zhu Liang could only attack in the Heavenly Supremacies Battle!
The Heavenly Supremacies Battle was watched by everyone and no one could interfere.
“Alright!”
Qing Yan of the Divine Punishment Sanctuary nodded. “It’s a deal!”
“Please show mercy when the time comes, everyone.”
Xie Lin of the s.p.a.ce Time Sanctuary smiled gently.
Lie Huo of the Nirvana Sanctuary was still silent. He merely surveyed the crowd with his burning eyes, as though he was searching for something.
“Brother Lie, stop looking.”
Xie Lin chuckled. “He’ll probably be scared to death just by our mighty lineup. How could he dare to come?”
Before his sentence was finished, an abnormal commotion sounded from the distant crowd!
The next moment, a black-haired and green-robed cultivator appeared and arrived before the gigantic teleportation formation under countless gazes!
