Chapter 841: Chapter 58: Magnificent as the Sun

Under the sunglasses, the world underwent a wondrous transformation. The aura around Jiang Jinyue was quite pure, with a faint silver color, interspersed with strands of gold and a little floating red, indicating that overall Wish Power and Karmic Force were well balanced. Chu Zhan nearby was about the same.

The Three Pristine Sect was very solid in controlling Karmic Force, not rushing for quick results. However, this also subjected the Three Pristine Sect to considerable pressure and challenges. Thick accumulation and thin release depend on whether the competitors give opportunities. This is the problem of the Zhengyang Sect, where many Zhengyang Sects fell due to too much self-restraint, while Taiyin School Sects fell due to excessive madness.

Bao Yu’Er adjusted the sunglasses, her gaze moving, most people had mixed auras, with Karmic Force, Wish Power, and various indistinct auras mixed together, like a large dyeing vat.

The two elders in the VIP area, Tang Feng and Kui Ma, were both at the Golden Core Stage, primarily focused on Artifact Refining and Alchemy, so their Karmic Force would be relatively small. The two elders’ auras had a gray-white base color with some red, black, and light golden threads in between.

An elder from the Vajra Institute also came, and his aura was generally leaning towards a black-gray color. If he didn’t quickly find a solution for his Karmic Force, it would be better for him to die sooner.

From a Life Master’s perspective, these threads wouldn’t have much impact on the body unless they reached a certain amount, and a change in the base color of the aura meant that Karmic Force already affected the body.

The Secret Items of a Life Master are truly handy. No wonder they could become the master’s confidant back then, having also acquired some little tricks and secret knowledge on the Life Master path. This old man truly had some skills.

The glasses rotated, and her gaze fell on the contestants’ side. Bao Yu’Er saw Li Xin and that Xiao Yan.

That Xiao Yan’s aura was very righteous, surprisingly exuding a faint golden base color, with some mixed colored threads, but not many. This young man was well protected by the sect, with an extraordinary background.

But upon seeing Ren Yanli, Bao Yu’Er was slightly stunned, ... this person’s aura was a piece of gray-white, why were there no threads?

Anyone who interacts with others will have some issues, especially a cultivator; it’s impossible to have no cause and effect or Karmic Force... meaning he has some sort of shield?

Bao Yu’Er became interested, Life Masters usually hide themselves very well, but this youngster’s combat power couldn’t possibly be that of a Life Master, and those capable of setting up a shield aren’t ordinary Life Masters.

These sunglasses were no ordinary item, Bao Yu’Er infused Spiritual Ability into them, and the world within the glasses suddenly turned pitch black, enabling her to discern some Blinding Techniques.

When her gaze fell again on Ren Yanli, the gray-white layer slowly cracked, shattered, and golden light pierced through, radiating like the sun’s brilliance in an instant!

Majestic Wish Power as dazzling as the sun.

Below the platform, Li Xin sensed the unusual gaze and looked up towards the dome.

At this moment, Bao Yu’Er seemed to be under the gaze of a Divine Being, enveloped in omnipresent golden light, her body seemingly about to shatter.

Crack.

The sunglasses cracked; Bao Yu’Er’s eyes stung, and she hastily took them off, her mind buzzing.

How could someone have such grand, pure, and unadulterated Wish Power on them???

This isn’t something a human could possess, nor could a human endure.

In an instant, Bao Yu’Er recalled Blind Zhao’s divination, the person she was looking for was this Loose Cultivator Ren Yanli!

After a while, Bao Yu’Er’s eyes finally returned to normal. The sunglasses in her hands were already shattered, while below the platform, that fellow was clapping and cheering for the dance on the stage.

A commoner?

...or a Saint.

To possess such vast and almost extravagant Wish Power in human form, once this person reached the Fifth Grade, they’d be able to do as they pleased.

As the pinnacle of Taiyin School Enchantress, she was entangled in Karmic Force. This must have been the master’s intention. Only such power could purify the Karmic Force on her.

But soon, Bao Yu’Er sobered up from her joy.

Such a person couldn’t be simple...

The audience inside Jiuxiao Building consisted mostly of various major cultivation families’ aristocracy and disciples of major sects, especially when experts were competing.

Many important figures attended today, clearly because there’s a major event, including the Young Sect Master of Three Pristine Sect, an elder from the Vajra Institute, and many elites from various sects, all converging on that Loose Cultivator Ren Yanli.

The two Red List Disciples from Vajra Institute and Three Pristine Sect were set to challenge Ren Yanli in a three-round match, an exceptionally rare occurrence.

Under the foil of the last three-round match, the previous four rounds became mere warm-ups, and they featured outstanding disciples from Yellow-level Sects, each showcasing themselves to the fullest. The more people there were, the higher the interest, and the greater the Wish Power absorbed. At this point, the contestants also needed to fully display their style. There was a stage, but without style, Wish Power would still not be generated. Therefore, although Vajra Institute was brutal, it could still attract the dark side of human nature, which was also Wish Power.

The quality of the first three rounds was very high, and the fourth match pitted a disciple from Cold Sword Mountain, vying for the Red List, against a Loose Cultivator. Loose Cultivators entered Jiuxiao Building only as top-notch practical combat experts.

However, the crowd’s attention was drawn to outside the venue, as throughout the competition, experts from Cyan Dragon City continued to arrive, and later, even from White Tiger City and Vermilion Bird City. The Treasure Ships outside Jiuxiao Building didn’t stop during the competition.

"Oh my, it’s Liu Zhongyang from Pudu Cloud Hall, why is he here?"

"Things are about to get lively, two of the top ten have arrived."

A young man with an elegant demeanor and a Daoist bun appeared at the door of Jiuxiao Building, his gaze wandering.

The most famous among the Divine Land’s young generation are the top ten, led by Celestial Sword Sheng Yuan of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect as the Upper Five Greats, and Liu Zhongyang leading the Lower Five Greats. These ten are recognized as the strongest echelon of the Divine Land’s generation, followed by the top ten Red List annually. Every four years, the State Lord selects Celestial Destiny Sect disciples from the accumulated list of candidates over those years.

Jiang Jinyue’s appearance was understandable, but without special invitations, the top ten generally wouldn’t come to Jiuxiao Building. Why did Liu Zhongyang rush here?

The competition had already begun, but people’s eyes were fixed on Liu Zhongyang’s dashing figure. The women at the Jiuxiao Building venue all had burning gazes. Pudu Cloud Hall is an orthodox Zhengyang School Sect, strict and rigorous in cultivation, making it a great boon for an Enchantress. Moreover, the person before them was a representative figure of Pudu Cloud Hall, a candidate for the next Sect Master, a Celestial Destiny Sect disciple, handsome, and rumored to have a humorous personality, a dream lover in the eyes of women.

Liu Zhongyang’s gaze swept through and finally settled on the table where Li Xin and Xiao Yan were seated, and then he strode over briskly.

"Brother Ren, this Liu Zhongyang is quite formidable and a decent person. Strange, who could have caused him to hurry here, could it be for Jiang Jinyue?" Xiao Yan curiously said.

Under the gaze of many beautiful women, Liu Zhongyang arrived at the table of Li Xin and Xiao Yan, seriously scrutinized Li Xin, his eyes carrying a little excitement and uncertainty, "This brother seems unfamiliar, how should I address you?"

Li Xin looked at Liu Zhongyang, "Loose Cultivator Ren Yanli."

"I’m Liu Zhongyang from Pudu Cloud Hall, up close, Brother Ren seems a bit familiar." Liu Zhongyang said with a smile.
