Chapter 961: A Formidable Enemy Arrives, Departing the Sky Temple!
Barbarian Continent, South Origin Sea.
Four Great Power of Integration stood in the void, gazing toward the direction of the Sky Temple.
"Ming Xu, you old bastard, you’re not leaving? Right now is the perfect time to fight over the Blessed Land."
The Hollow Void Great Power of Integration Du Xi wore a half-smile, energy surging around his body.
The Flying Sword before Ming Xu trembled as he said indifferently, "You’re not leaving either."
Du Xi gave a cold snort and stopped talking.
Anyone who could cultivate to the Unity Realm Stage was no idiot.
Seizing the Blessed Land was naturally the top priority, but the Lord of the Blessed Land had to be captured as well.
The Lord of the Blessed Land was blessed by heaven and earth; the benefits he obtained were unimaginable.
If they could capture the Lord of the Blessed Land and refine him into a precious elixir, breaking through to Transcending Tribulation would be no difficulty.
If they didn’t know where the Lord of the Blessed Land was, that’d be one thing.
Now that they knew the Lord of the Blessed Land was in the Sky Temple, how could they let this chance slip by?
Even if they had to guard outside the Sky Temple for a thousand or ten thousand years, they would wait until the Lord of the Blessed Land appeared!
A wait of several thousand years in exchange for a chance to break through Transcending Tribulation—no Great Power of Integration would pass that up.
Rumble!
Just as the four Great Power of Integration closed their eyes and focused, preparing to stand guard here long-term, the void trembled and an Imperial Sky Flying Boat appeared before the four of them.
"People from Jinchen Holy Land!"
Seeing the insignia on the Imperial Sky Flying Boat, both Du Xi and Ming Xu’s faces turned ugly.
The disciples of Jinchen Holy Land were all women, fiercely protective of their own and notoriously hard to deal with.
Although they ranked second among the Three Great Holy Lands, they were often more intimidating than Renowned Swords Holy Land.
A woman’s mind was impossible to read.
Jinchen Holy Land often went to war over matters that Renowned Swords and Hollow Void considered trivial.
Seeing an Integrate Dao expert from Jinchen Holy Land, both Du Xi and Ming Xu felt a headache coming on.
More than a dozen figures flew down through the air.
At their head was a middle-aged woman with a plum blossom petal marked between her brows.
"Mei Fairy, damn it! How is it her coming to the Sky Temple this year!"
Du Xi and Ming Xu cursed in unison.
Jinchen Holy Land was unreasonable.
Mei Fairy was one of the most unreasonable among Jinchen Holy Land’s people.
On top of that, this woman was Mid-Stage Integration; her cultivation level was above the two of them.
"So it’s you two."
Mei Fairy’s voice was cool; though she looked middle-aged, her voice was crisp like a young girl’s.
Du Xi and Ming Xu both snorted coldly and acted as if they hadn’t heard her.
Mei Fairy narrowed her eyes, about to speak.
A protector from a First-Rank Sect affiliated with Jinchen Holy Land flew forward into the air.
"Don’t you dare!"
Du Xi’s eyes widened, and a chilling aura pinned that Spirit Transformation Guardian in place, unable to move.
Mei Fairy raised an eyebrow and sneered, "Two thousand years without seeing you, Du Xi, and you’ve grown some guts, daring to meddle in Jinchen Holy Land’s affairs."
With that, without waiting for Du Xi to explain, she struck out in anger.
Blossom after blossom of plum flowers descended from the sky, breathtakingly beautiful.
"Great Plum Blossom Art! You crazy woman!"
Du Xi hurriedly dodged.
He hadn’t expected this woman to be so insane as to use Dao Arts at the slightest disagreement.
Mei Fairy snorted dismissively and withdrew her Dao Arts, looking coldly at Ming Xu. "You want to test your weight against me too, Mei Fairy?"
Ming Xu sighed, and hundreds more Flying Swords appeared around his body.
"Du Xi, given the situation, we can only join forces and take this woman down first."
Ming Xu faintly regretted it.
If he had known, he would’ve killed all the people here who were affiliated with Jinchen Holy Land.
Now the news of the Lord of the Blessed Land entering the Sky Temple could no longer be hidden.
Even if they didn’t fight Mei Fairy now, once Mei Fairy got the news, a great battle would be inevitable.
Du Xi also understood and his gaze turned icy.
Mei Fairy was alone, while Renowned Swords and Hollow Void Holy Lands had four people!
They could fight!
Hearing Ming Xu’s words, Mei Fairy was slightly surprised.
Had these two bastards gone crazy? Were they really going to make a move?
"Fairy, ten days ago, the Lord of the Blessed Land entered the Sky Temple!"
The Divinity Transformation Realm cultivator whom Du Xi had been suppressing finally got a chance to speak.
Shff!
Mei Fairy’s aura changed in an instant.
The Lord of the Blessed Land was actually in the Sky Temple!
No one had expected that with powerful enemies at the door, the Lord of the Blessed Land wouldn’t stay to guard the Blessed Land but would actually come to the Sky Temple!
"No, wasn’t the Sky Temple supposed to Open Sky Temple a month and a half from now?"
Mei Fairy sensed something was wrong.
The Divinity Transformation hurriedly said, "The Lord of the Blessed Land used some unknown method to Open Sky Temple ahead of time. The geniuses from our sects have already entered the Sky Temple!"
Mei Fairy swept out her Divine Sense and indeed found that those remaining here were all Spirit Transformation Guardian-level.
Geniuses at Nascent Soul Peak were few and far between.
"Hahahaha, Du Xi, Ming Xu, so this was the plan you two idiots were cooking up!"
Mei Fairy laughed loudly. "Two morons! You think that after the Lord of the Blessed Land entered the Sky Temple, there’s still a share left for you?"
Du Xi and Ming Xu’s expressions froze, then they couldn’t help but curse in frustration.
Earlier they’d only thought of blocking the Sky Temple, then capturing the Lord of the Blessed Land the moment he came out.
They had forgotten that thousands of years could change too many things.
In thousands of years, it was enough time for several Divine Continent in the Central Domain to send Peak of Integration, even Tribulation-Crossing Ancestors.
By then, as a few early-stage Integrate Dao, they wouldn’t even get a sip of soup.
When the Lord of the Blessed Land had entered the sacred temple, thousands had watched; there was no way to conceal the news.
The two of them felt their intelligence had been insulted.
Seeing their expressions, Mei Fairy laughed triumphantly, her laughter shaking her whole figure.
These two idiots had actually thought they could monopolize the benefits.
Du Xi and Ming Xu’s faces turned a dark purple, but they had no way to vent their anger.
Without the temptation of the Lord of the Blessed Land, they were unwilling to risk their lives against a Mid-Stage Integration opponent.
"That Lord of the Blessed Land does have some skill, to actually be able to Open Sky Temple ahead of time."
Mei Fairy was also a bit surprised inwardly.
She had cultivated for ten thousand years and had never heard of anyone who could Open Sky Temple in advance.
To lead a world to ascend from this desolate Barbarian Continent and be promoted to a Blessed Land—such a person truly was not simple.
Buzz!
Just as Du Xi and Ming Xu were dying of embarrassment, wishing they could turn around and leave, halos of light appeared above the void.
The sound of horns rang out once more.
Boom!
The First Order Sky Temple stairway descended with a roar.
Mei Fairy frowned slightly. "It’s still not time for the Sky Temple to open. Could it be that a Barbarian Continent genius has advanced to Integrate Dao inside the Sky Temple?"
Sure enough, things unfolded just as Mei Fairy anticipated.
This time, the Sky Temple stairway that appeared had only nine steps.
By descending the reverse nine steps, one could complete the transformation from Divinity Transformation to Integrate Dao.
The birth of an Integrate Dao expert in Barbarian Continent was something to celebrate.
It was just that no one knew which side this newly-advanced Integrate Dao belonged to.
If this Integrate Dao belonged to Hollow Void or Renowned Swords Holy Land, there was no avoiding a fight!
Ming Xu and Du Xi also halted and looked toward the Sky Temple stairway.
They’d just been thoroughly humiliated by that old woman Mei Fairy. If the newly-advanced Integrate Dao was from their two Holy Lands, then today they’d make that old woman look bad!
With Four Great Unity Daoists at early stage, plus one Integrate Dao at least Genius Level, they could fight a Mid-Stage Integration opponent!
Rumble!
The nine steps spread down.
A figure gradually solidified from illusion and appeared within everyone’s line of sight.
Mei Fairy frowned.
It was a man, not someone from Jinchen Holy Land.
"The Lord of the Blessed Land!"
Ming Xu and Du Xi cried out in surprise and, without the slightest hesitation, immediately unleashed their ultimate techniques. Two great Dao Arts blasted toward the figure on the stairway.
The other two Great Power of Integration also struck out in unison.
No one had expected that the person who appeared suddenly would be the Lord of the Blessed Land who had only entered the Sky Temple a few days ago!
They didn’t have the leisure to question how the Lord of the Blessed Land could emerge from the Sky Temple in just a few days.
Capture!
They had to capture him!
