"Who will be the leader among the geniuses? There's a madman in Xuantian."
In the Black Heaven Sect, on a mountain peak outside of the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation, a young man mumbled to himself. A look of disdain flashed across his eyes. "What a joke. A person who was crippled three years ago is still spreading his legend. Are these people sick in the head?"
The young man snorted coldly with a dissatisfied look on his face.
If anyone who was paying attention to the situation on Firmament Star was here, they would definitely recognize this person as the top sky-pride who was ranked twenty-fifth on the Soaring Dragon Leaderboard.
He was also the Daoist of Parchprime Palace, one of the top orthodoxies in Firmament Star … Liu Yiqing.
Three years ago, Parchprime Palace was also one of the unknown places in this world. However, Liu Yiqing was not an empyrean walker. It was not because he was not strong enough, but because he was still in closed-door cultivation.
It was only three years ago, after the battle at the Black Heaven Sect that he came out of closed-door cultivation. At the same time, Parchprime Palace had also reappeared, just like the other unknown lands.
Meanwhile, Liu Yiqing had also officially entered the public's field of vision. He stepped onto the stage where prodigies gathered and was ready to show his prowess.
His strength was indeed extraordinary. In the past three years, he had defeated many geniuses and was ranked 25th on the Hidden Dragon Ranking.
It could be said that apart from the top Heaven's Favorites from the Nine Heavens, his strength was definitely among the top of the younger generation.
However, he didn't feel happy at all.
Because of one person.
A person who had been crippled three years ago and had disappeared without a trace.
That was Chu Kuangren!
When Liu Yiqing first debuted, he had an impressive battle record and quickly gained quite a bit of fame. However, his fame was overshadowed by the name of Chu Kuangren.
No matter who it was, as long as someone mentioned the name Chu Kuangren, no matter who they were talking about or which sky-prides they were talking about, they would instantly be drawn to that name and talk about Chu Kuangren's glorious deeds.
This name seemed to have some kind of magic that could easily attract everyone's attention.
Liu Yiqing was a proud and arrogant person. He had thought that he would be able to make a name for himself once he made his debut. In fact, it was not impossible for him to fight for the throne of this world.
However, the limelight was overshadowed by one person's name.
More importantly, this person had already been sealed by Tian Fa three years ago and had been reduced to an ordinary person. He had even disappeared for three years.
The strong contrast made Liu Yiqing very unhappy.
Just a few days ago, his beloved goddess, Feng Yaorao, also had an infatuated look on her face whenever she talked about Chu Kuangren. He could not stand it anymore.
He swore that he would meet Chu Kuangren in person.
"I'd like to see just what kind of person Chu Kuangren is, to be able to make the entire world miss him so much!"
Liu Yiqing said as he looked at the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation.
"I heard that he was struck by the Heavenly Punishment Seal. He's probably no different from an ordinary person now." There was another young man beside Liu Yiqing.
This person was hiding under the shade of the tree without making a sound.
When he walked out, the sunlight shone on his body, revealing only his pale face. This person was also a genius of the Hidden Dragon Rank.
The 24th of the Hidden Dragon Rank, Yin Li!
He was not an empyrean walker, nor was he a sky-pride from the Nine Heavens. Instead, he was one of the sky-prides who had risen to prominence through various opportunities in the past three years.
At the same time, this person was also very dissatisfied with Chu Kuangren.
The reason was similar to Liu Yiqing's.
Today, the two of them had teamed up to meet Chu Kuangren.
"He's here."
Liu Yiqing said calmly.
At the foot of the mountain, two figures were slowly walking on the mountain path. Both of them were stunning beauties.
One of them was dressed in red while the other was dressed in blue.
"Jun Yi and Jin Feiyan are ranked fifty-sixth and fifty-seventh on the Hidden Dragon Rank. They're also two of the Black Heaven Sect's Daoists."
"As long as we follow them, we'll be able to enter the Black Heaven Sect."
Of course, Liu Yiqing and Yin Li would not recklessly barge into the Black Heaven Sect. After all, the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation was not just for show.
After all, it was a formation that even a Sage Ruler would not dare to barge into. With their abilities, barging into the formation was no different from courting death.
Hence, they were already prepared.
That was to let the people of the Black Heaven Sect bring them in!
They had found out that Jin Feiyan and Jun Yi were inseparable when they were out adventuring, but they would return to the Black Heaven Sect every six months.
These few days were the time for them to return.
"Let's get ready."
Liu Yiqing said calmly.
Yin Li nodded slightly. With a wave of his sleeve, a black mist shrouded the two of them, concealing them in the void.
This concealment technique was extremely brilliant, and it was one of Yin Li's Opportunities of Fortune. Even a Sage Ruler might not be able to detect them.
Not to mention Jun Yi and Jin Feiyan.
The two of them followed behind the two girls and entered the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation.
Once Jun Yi entered the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation, she took out a jade longsword. The two girls followed the longsword's guidance and dashed towards the Black Heaven Sect.
Along the way, they passed by many formations. These formations were extremely complicated and intertwined, making it difficult to guard against them.
If not for the jade sword's guidance, even a Sage Ruler would not be able to escape death if they made a single mistake.
This formation was too terrifying.
Liu Yiqing and Yin Li followed behind Jun Yi and Jin Feiyan. They did not dare to stray too far away, afraid that they would lose track of them.
"Roar …"
At that moment, a roar came from the sky.
A ferocious Cloud Dragon loomed in the sea of clouds.
Liu Yiqing and Yin Li, who were hiding in the void, shuddered in fear as they looked at the cloud dragon with fear in their eyes.
'What kind of monster is that?'
'What's going on with this formation?!'
"Hi …"
Jin Feiyan didn't seem to be surprised by Yun Long's presence and even greeted him happily.
Beside her, Jun Yi shook her head helplessly. "This is just a part of the Astonishing Cloud of Seas Formation. It has no sentience, so why are you greeting it?"
"I'm happy to be back."
Jin Feiyan smiled.
Liu Yiqing and Yin Li, who were hiding in the void, heaved a sigh of relief.
No sentience?
It was good that it did not have sentience. If it did, they would not know what to do if it discovered them.
Vaguely, they regretted their decision.
If they had known earlier, they would not have barged in. It was not without reason that the Black Heaven Sect's formation was known as the eleventh forbidden area.
Soon, Jun Yi and Yin Li returned to the Black Heaven Sect's mountain gate.
After greeting Elder Ruyan and the others, they went to the Towering Heaven Palace as usual when they returned to the sect.
Along the way, Liu Yiqing and Yin Li observed the internal situation of the Black Heaven Sect.
Although the Black Heaven Sect had spent a lot of resources on the disciples in the past three years, and their strength had greatly improved, Liu Yiqing and Yin Li did not care about most of them except for a few Daoists.
"Jun Yi, when do you think the Sect Leader will come out of closed-door meditation?"
Jin Feiyan asked casually on the way to the Towering Heaven Palace.
Upon hearing that, Liu Yiqing and Yin Li perked up their ears. They knew that the Sect Leader that Jin Feiyan mentioned was Chu Kuangren.
However, what surprised them was the rumor that Chu Kuangren was not sealed by the Heavenly Punishment Seal and lost his cultivation? Why would he go into closed-door meditation?
Was he trying to break the Heavenly Punishment Seal?
What a joke.
Even the Emperors of Old could not break the seal, so how could a cultivator who was not even a Sage when he was sealed be able to break it?
The two of them carefully listened to Jin Feiyan and Yin Li's conversation.
"I don't know, but this is the longest Sect Leader has ever gone into closed-door meditation. The Heavenly Punishment Seal must be very difficult to break."
"Sigh, the heavens are jealous of the talented."
As the two of them chatted, they arrived at the Towering Heaven Palace. Lan Yu, Gu Linglong, and Lil Bing had long known that they were coming, so they went up to welcome them.
At that moment, within the Daoist Palace, a fiery light shot up into the sky. A beautiful Godly Phoenix soared into the sky and coldly stared behind Jun Yi and Jin Feiyan. "Who dares to sneak around here!"
