Chapter 138 - 138: Heirs of Various Factions Appear, Rushing to the Heavenly Dao Tower; The Little Peng King with Golden Wings from Garuda Sacred Mountain, and Little Western Heaven’s Buddha’s Son, Fa Hai
Outside the Jun Family's mountain gate, two groups of people stood in the sky.
The Nine-Headed Lion was resplendent with golden light, radiating brilliance.
The Qilin exotic beast trod on purple qi, divine and powerful.
"Cousin Xiaoyao, at the Heavenly Dao Tower this time, shall we compete again?" Jun Lingcang said.
Though his eyes were covered, his gaze still swept towards the distant void, as if wanting to see that peerless figure in grey.
"Since Cousin has such interest, then I, your younger cousin, can only accompany you to the end," Jun Xiaoyao also smiled.
Their words, while seemingly peaceful, were full of competitive spirit.
Watching this scene, the Jun Family clan elders felt a sense of relief in their hearts.
They naturally understood that due to the issue with Ah Jiu, Jun Lingcang would clearly have some resentment.
What they feared most was seeing Jun Xiaoyao and Jun Lingcang at odds, or even becoming enemies.
If the Zero Sequence and the First Sequence were hostile to each other, it would not be a good thing for the Jun Family.
It might even affect the future fortunes of the clan.
Fortunately, however, both of them possessed a certain magnanimity and did not disappoint the Jun Family elders.
The current competitive rivalry was within a reasonable scope.
"This time, I hope our Jun Family's various prodigies can dominate the rankings of the Heavenly Dao Tower!" a clan elder said with a hearty laugh.
If their clan's prodigies could dominate the Heavenly Dao Tower rankings, what a delightful thing that would be.
As the Jun Family, one of the Three Imperial Families, they had this confidence.
Just as Jun Xiaoyao and the others set off for the Saintly Spirit Academy.
Other factions also began to make their moves.
Someone saw, within a golden mountain range, a terrifying golden divine bird soaring into the sky.
With a flap of its wings, like clouds hanging from the heavens, it stirred up a massive storm!
"Hiss, could it be that the Little Peng King with Golden Wings from Garuda Sacred Mountain has come out of seclusion!"
Many cultivators were shocked.
The Golden-Winged Great Peng Bird was also called Garuda.
And Garuda Sacred Mountain was also a top-tier Primordial King Clan.
Moreover, this lineage, like the Nine-Headed Lion Clan, had a very scarce population, thus not meeting the standard of a Primordial Royal Clan.
But this did not mean Garuda Sacred Mountain was weak.
Every prodigy who emerged from it possessed the grand spirit to dominate all directions.
Among them, the most famous was none other than the Little Peng King with Golden Wings.
His name was Jin Lie, and he was the most renowned Heaven's Chosen Son of the current generation from Garuda Sacred Mountain.
His strength was in no way inferior to the top prodigies of the Primordial Royal Clans, perhaps even surpassing them.
At least, prodigies of the level of Huang Xuanyi and Feng Qingling would be extremely wary when facing Jin Lie, with no confidence in being able to contend against him.
"I'm finally out of seclusion! This time, I, Jin Lie, will overwhelm all directions and claim supremacy at the Heavenly Dao Tower!"
That Golden-Winged Great Peng Bird, with a flap of its wings, shot through the air like a golden bolt of lightning.
...
Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain, Western Dao Province.
At the entrance of an ancient, rustic temple.
"Fa Hai, your mind cannot find tranquility; it is too chaotic. Go and walk the mortal realm."
"Your Sixteen-Foot Golden Body is still one step away from perfection. The karma... lies within the Heavenly Dao Tower."
An old monk with long eyebrows reaching the ground, draped in a kasaya, spoke to a young monk with thick eyebrows, large eyes, and a handsome face.
The young monk named Fa Hai said, "Master, please rest assured. Your disciple will definitely not bring shame to the name of Little Western Heaven. On this journey into the mortal realm, I will widely chant the Buddhist hymns of the Western Heaven."
"Alas, striving for supremacy and fighting for victory is not a virtuous path. Conduct yourself well," the old monk sighed slightly.
If anyone were to witness this scene, they would surely be astonished.
Little Western Heaven was a powerful orthodox sect in the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain with a long and profound heritage, enduring and unperishing. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Throughout the entire Immortal Domain, it had countless believers, gathering the power of faith.
No one knew how deep the foundations of Little Western Heaven were.
But it was rumored that Little Western Heaven was connected to the Buddha Emperor of ancient times.
In the current era, Little Western Heaven was extremely low-profile, almost never appearing in the world.
The outside world only knew that Little Western Heaven's most outstanding prodigies were the Buddha's Son and Buddha's Daughter.
And this Fa Hai before them was precisely the Buddha's Son of Little Western Heaven.
"Master, your disciple takes his leave." Fa Hai put his palms together and bowed slightly.
But after turning around, a rebellious smile appeared on Fa Hai's face.
"I can finally enter the world. Who should I convert?"
"Let this humble monk think... I still lack a mount. Then I shall convert a Nine-Headed Lion, or a Golden-Winged Great Peng Bird."
"And those female benefactors, who have been sunk in the sea of suffering for a long time, need this humble monk to rescue them."
Fa Hai smiled.
His talent was exceptional, and he could master various Buddhist divine abilities with ease.
He had even cultivated Little Western Heaven's supreme dharma, the Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon True Scripture, to an extremely profound level.
But Fa Hai's personality was not at all like that of a monk; rather, he resembled a worldly person whose six roots were impure.
Now that he finally had the chance to enter the world, Fa Hai naturally couldn't just go through it casually.
It was time for him, the Buddha's Son of Little Western Heaven, to display his might.
...
The Saintly Spirit Academy was located in Tianling Dao Province.
As an academy with a long-standing heritage, its disciples were spread throughout the Immortal Domain; one could say its students were everywhere.
With this terrifying network of connections, ordinary factions simply dared not provoke the Saintly Spirit Academy.
Even immortal factions treated the Saintly Spirit Academy with courtesy.
Of course, this did not include the Jun Family.
The Saintly Spirit Academy was also unwilling to provoke a top-tier immortal faction like the Jun Family.
That was why the Saintly Spirit Academy had previously changed its tune and welcomed Jun Xiaoyao's arrival.
But the Saintly Spirit Academy yielding did not mean its disciples also yielded.
Ji Xuan, as a Saint Child of the Saintly Spirit Academy, was a figurehead.
Yet he was beaten by Jun Xiaoyao to the point of a mental collapse, becoming a complete cripple.
Didn't this just tell the world that the students taught by the Saintly Spirit Academy were only so capable? Therefore, Jun Xiaoyao had also indirectly smashed the Saintly Spirit Academy's signboard.
The vast majority of male disciples in the Saintly Spirit Academy harbored hostility towards Jun Xiaoyao.
But many of the female disciples were observing.
Because they had heard that the Jun Family's Divine Child possessed the appearance of a celestial being, was handsome and peerless, worthy of being called the number one divine, immortal-level beauty in the Immortal Domain.
If he truly met their expectations, a little forgiveness wasn't out of the question.
At this moment, in a lakeside pavilion, two men and one woman were gathered.
One of the men wore a black and white Daoist robe, his eyes seemingly one black and one white, flowing with Daoist rhythm, quite peculiar.
He was one of the Saint Children of the Saintly Spirit Academy, with a very powerful background.
"This Jun Xiaoyao crippled Brother Ji Xuan and yet still shamelessly wants to come to the Heavenly Dao Tower to gain opportunities. Truly shameless to the extreme."
Another young man, dressed luxuriously and exuding an imperial aura, shook his head and said, "Who can complain? He's the Jun Family's Divine Child. If he's not domineering, who is?"
"I really don't know what kind of extraordinary person the Jun Family's Divine Child is, to beat even Daoist Brother Ji Xuan, who was so powerful, to the point of a mental collapse."
The remaining woman wore a floral print high-waisted ruqun, her dark hair like a waterfall, cascading down to her delicate hips.
Her skin was snow-white and lustrous, her appearance elegant and refined, exceptionally beautiful.
Her tone carried a hint of curiosity.
Among their several Saint Children and Saintesses, Ji Xuan was considered very strong.
For him to be beaten to the point of a mental collapse was something she found quite incredible.
"Hua Xiqing, you are a Saintess of our Saintly Spirit Academy. You can't side with an outsider when the time comes," the luxuriously dressed young man said, raising an eyebrow.
The young man in the black and white Daoist robe sneered, "It's not that simple to step into the gates of our Saintly Spirit Academy."
"Any Heaven's Chosen Son who comes will choose to participate in the trials: ascend the Ninety-Nine Steps Sky Ladder, make the ancient bell resonate eighteen times, and finally leap over the Dragon Gate to enter."
"If the dignified Jun Family's Divine Child stumbles on these three trials, he'll lose a great deal of face."
"These three trials are indeed difficult. Even when I first entered the Saintly Spirit Academy, I spent a great deal of effort to barely pass," the luxuriously dressed man shook his head and said.
"Then we shall just wait for that Divine Child's arrival," Hua Xiqing said softly.
