Chapter 1: Crossing into Another World

  When Hei Pao arrived at the Qingxia Grand Hall, he found that there was no one around the entire hall.

  He gradually relaxed his footsteps, carefully looking around, but no matter how he looked, there was nothing. He shrugged and walked into the grand hall. On this Qingxia Main Mountain, he believed that no one would be hiding in wait for him.

  Originally, he thought that Yue Xingyan should be hosting the Grand Competition at the foot of the mountain, and there shouldn't be any talented individuals inside the grand hall. However, when he walked in, he discovered that things weren't as he had imagined. In the great hall, nine figures were already standing there.

  Among them, eight paths, Cang Ye has seen all.

  The first one was naturally the current host of the mountain waist competition, Yue Xingyan, and the other seven. He had seen them a long time ago during the sect's grand ceremony. These seven people were precisely the seven Supreme Sovereigns who flew out to stabilize the space when the Thunder Snake broke open the sacred object space and descended into the mortal world!

  The Sword Emperor, the only emperor that Cang Ye had ever come into contact with. In his heart, he made a silent comparison. Unfortunately, no matter how much he compared, he couldn't make sense of it and could only blame his own poor cultivation.

  Adjusted his emotions, walked forward, and bowed slightly.

  "I have met the Master's uncle, I have met all of you, Masters and uncles."

  That unseen Spirit Emperor should be the master of Yue Xingyan, the previous generation's Qingxia Sect Master who stayed in the Qingxia Temple and was the only one who didn't show up - Li Qing, the Sealed Heaven Emperor.

  As for the information about the previous generation's master, Cang Ye had a lot of memories.

  Seal Heaven Emperor Li Qing was a renowned figure over a thousand years ago. His claim to fame was that with his own strength, he suppressed three rogue Loose Cultivator Emperors.

  At that time, he was titled Qing Huang, only because one person sealed three supreme spiritual emperors equivalent to heaven, shocking the world. Only then was he respectfully called "Seal Heaven Emperor".

  Seal Heaven and Earth, yet even the heavens can be sealed! From this title, it's not hard to see just how powerful Li Qing's strength is.

  "Rise up, you are the dark night?"

  As expected, Cang Ye's guess was correct, this person was indeed the previous generation's leader.

  In the entire temple, there were eight emperors and one gatekeeper, but it was he who asked the questions. It can be seen that although he had already retreated behind the scenes, his influence was not something that the current Yue Xingyan could compare to.

  Listening to the gentle voice of Ling Huang, Cang Ye also felt a refreshing breeze.

  "Reporting back to Master Shifu's ancestor, I am indeed the Dark Night."

  Calling him a junior, rather than saying he's a disciple, that's where Cang Ye is clever. Because strictly speaking, Cang Ye is indeed his Qingxia Sect disciple, but unfortunately, the people of Qingxia Sect are really too numerous, except within each peak or between relatively close peak doors, few people call themselves disciples. Because once you call yourself a disciple, then the other party as a senior in the sect will not be able to refuse if they make any request.

  Such a title as Cang Ye can also be used when the other party proposes something that is difficult to achieve, and it can be politely declined or delayed.

  Of course, this is only for him, as a genius, especially when Li Tian Luo mentioned that he was the hope of the sect's revival. Therefore, it would be appropriate to make some demands and propose some conditions, believing that the sect can also satisfy them. If it were another disciple, they might have been directly eliminated by the nine Qingxia highest authorities present.

  As for Cang Ye's mindset, the first Sealed Heaven Emperor naturally understood it clearly. Although he had been cultivating in the sect's secret realm for hundreds of years, expecting to break through to the main world soon, it didn't mean he was unaware of these matters. On the contrary, having once held power over the Qingxia Sect and fought against the other four major sects for so long, this former sect master's depth was also immeasurable. However, a genius should have some pride as a genius; if they don't even have that, then no matter how high their talent is, they will only be a tool controlled by others in the future.

  A faint smile, still gazing warmly at the vast night.

  As for asking him if he was Cang Ye, the question was a bit confusing. If it wasn't him, how could he have arrived at this place? Facing the Spirit Emperor's benevolent appearance, although seemingly easy to talk to, Cang Ye didn't dare to make careless remarks. The dignity of the emperor cannot be offended!

  Not to mention his cultivation, the person in front of him is probably over 1,500 years old. In the world, he would be an ancestor from dozens of generations ago. So, out of respect, even if it's just in his heart, he wouldn't dare think of words like "old fogey".

  "Now, he already has the cultivation of Di Ling Dian Feng. The purity of his spiritual energy is astonishingly high and can now completely rival that of those top-notch Spiritual Sect experts! Yan Er was indeed right, a genius, a true genius!" After carefully observing Cang Ye's cultivation, this Master Uncle finally spoke up.

  Feng Tian Huang was able to single-handedly defeat three opponents during the Ling Huang era, and even seal them all away. This is a testament to his exceptional cultivation. Furthermore, he is an entire generation older than the Sword Emperor who usurped the throne. Cang Ye believes that this person's strength must be among the rarest in the world! Following normal logic, the Emperors of the five major sects generally possess greater strength than rogue cultivator Emperors. As the leader of a sect, they should be the strongest. Therefore, the Feng Tian Huang before him, even if not the strongest in the world, should at least be ranked among the top three! Being able to see through his own spiritual energy disguise with just one glance is also not an exaggerated display.

  "I also heard your sect's master say that you can now rival a high-ranking Spirit Master, and even kill a mid-ranking one. I don't know if this is true?" When Li Qing asked about this matter, the other seven Spirit Emperors who had not changed their expressions all turned their eyes to him. After all, a 15-year-old high-ranking Spirit Master was no longer something that could be described as terrifying. And killing a mid-ranking Spirit Master was even more unthinkable. Generally, once one reached the level of Spirit Master, even if they were only one rank higher, it would be difficult for them to kill someone of a lower rank. Only when the opponents had a huge gap in strength would there be cases of instant kills.

  Those mid-tier spirit masters who were killed had also been informed before, and after so many years of evil deeds, they still hadn't been killed. It's believed that among the mid-tier spirit masters, they are considered strong. And now this child in front of them can actually kill, not just defeat, which is something for those few to think about carefully!

  Feeling the gaze of eight emperors and a peak spirit king, even though he had already entered the realm of swordsmanship, he couldn't bear it.

  After adapting for a moment, Cang Ye raised his head and said to Li Qing.

  "Disciple, indeed it can!"

  Two words came out. The momentum in the great hall changed suddenly. Cang Ye, who was in this strong atmosphere, felt that his body had added countless pressure for a while.

  Unconsciously, the aura of a sect master rose from his body, but how could he resist the aura of those eight emperors?

  Just when it felt unbearable, the whole atmosphere suddenly relaxed.

  "It's us eight old things who have lost our composure." Seeing that Cang Ye was not injured by the aura he had unconsciously released, the eight Ling Huangs also let out a slight sigh of relief. Although the child in front of them could rival a high-ranking spirit master, after all, they were only at the peak of the earthly spirit realm.

  However, the aura that Zong Shi had just released made everyone's eyes light up. As for what Cang Ye said about having enough combat power to kill a mid-tier Spirit Master, people began to believe it for the first time.

  "Kid, it's not that we don't believe you. This kind of thing is just too unbelievable for anyone to handle. Can you show us here?"

  At present, Cang Ye is far inferior to them in terms of strength, and with just a thought, he can be annihilated countless times. However, Cang Ye possesses potential that they do not have!

  Even if the current Tian Huang can take on three or even four alone, that's only in comparison to those scattered cultivators. When it comes to the top Ling Huang of other sects, being able to take on two alone is already considered heaven-defying.

  If the child in front of him can achieve what he said, with a first-class spiritual cultivation, he can kill the middle-level spirit master. Then, once he becomes the Spirit Emperor, who else in the world can't he kill? The Qingxia Sect will officially become the number one sect in the world!

  When Cang Ye heard Li Qing's tone of discussion, he really couldn't make up his mind. If he were to fully reveal his cultivation here, would it have any negative impact on his future development? What if those geniuses from the sects found out and, fueled by jealousy, kept setting obstacles for him? Even with the few people present taking care of him now, the road ahead wouldn't be easy to walk. After all, Ling Huang wasn't a nanny, and it was impossible for her to take care of him every day.

  As if seeing through his thoughts, Yue Xing suddenly spoke up and said

  "Night Master Nephew, you can show off your strongest power without worrying about anything. The martial arts world and the secular world are different. In the martial arts world, only if you show enough potential can you get matching resources. As for those secular intrigues, they absolutely do not exist in top-notch sects under heaven. As long as your potential is sufficient, no matter how exaggerated, the sect will go all out to cultivate you and won't have any other thoughts. I hope you can put down your guard on this point."

  Looking back on the past two years, it's indeed as Yue Xingyan said. Among all the genius disciples and opponents, very few people have any tricks up their sleeves; most of them are just showing off whatever they can do.

  "I obey the master's orders!"

  In that case, he should make a good show of himself, which can increase his own capital. Later on, when encountering unsolvable problems, the sect will not stand idly by. Moreover, it can also increase the chips for the revival of the Xuanmiao lineage.

  However, even if he decided to let go, he still had to leave a hand, this was the habit brought from his previous life!

  "Head of the sect, forgive me for my offense!" The nine people opposite him were obviously two generations higher than him in seniority. Even if their cultivation was the highest, it would still be somewhat impolite to attack them. He could only make a move against the youngest, Yue Xing.

  "You just come and attack, don't worry about anything else."
