On the sixth day of the fourth lunar month, Shen Zhenyi led Cynanchum Chinense, Shen Shou, Granny Chi Huo, and the rest to Soaring City. They visited Dharma Master Ren and prepared to challenge the Hundred Gates Heaven Pass.
When Dharma Master Ren heard the news in the city, he praised, "As expected of a newborn calf who is not afraid of a tiger. I didn't expect him to really dare to come!"
When he issued the challenge, Dharma Master Ren felt that Abandoned Sword Villa most likely did not dare to accept the challenge.
When Abandoned Sword Villa accepted the challenge, he did not believe it. In fact, he was already reorganizing the cavalry and preparing to attack Abandoned Sword Villa head-on.
Later on, he also felt that Abandoned Sword Villa might be stalling for time until the sixth day of the fourth lunar month.
He did not expect them to actually come so calmly.
"I want to see what kind of demeanor this young man has." Dharma Master Ren stood up and walked up the city gate tower.
Soaring City was built in the Gobi Desert. The city walls were tall and thick. There were scratches from weapons and gloomy bloodstains on them. The rocks were rough and were not piled up neatly. This place did not have a long history, but there were countless battles of blood and fire.
Dharma Master Ren was able to gain a foothold here not because of the inheritance of the previous generation, but because of the countless battles.
In terms of actual combat experience, Moon Worshipping Cave's Qiu Yinxuan and the Dragon Emperor Palace's King Dalong Of Zhao were much inferior to him.
Dharma Master Ren stood at the city gate and saw Shen Zhenyi in his white robe, floating like an elegant young master in a chaotic world. It was as if he was not here to participate in a battle of life and death, but to attend a magnificent banquet.
"This guy is not a fish in a pond!"
Dharma Master Ren only took a glance and sighed faintly in his heart. However, in front of so many people, he could not belittle his own prestige.
He instructed his subordinates, "I will return to the Hundred Gates Heaven Pass to take charge of the situation. Before that, there is no need to meet him."
When he saw Shen Zhenyi, Dharma Master Ren instinctively felt danger. He originally thought that this was just a game of revenge, but now he had no choice but to give it his all.
The people of Soaring Sky City didn't know what he was thinking. They just thought that the City Lord was acting as usual and didn't put his opponent in his eyes. They all laughed out loud. "Congratulations to the City Lord for your success and for taking revenge for the Vice City Lord!"
Qiu Yinxuan had also arrived at the Moon Worshipping Cave a long time ago. This was also his first time seeing Shen Zhenyi. He twirled his beard and smiled. He turned to his son and said, "This person is indeed worthy of being a member of the Moon Decapitation. At least he has some style. It's a pity that he's going to be ruined here today."
As soon as Qiu Zhenjun saw Shen Zhenyi, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his right hand. He gritted his teeth and said, "You deserve it! Isn't this exactly what Father wants? As long as this brat dies here, we can slowly infiltrate. Seven years later, we'll occupy the Abandoned Sword Villa and obtain Lord Zi Ningjun's inheritance. Moon Worshipping Cave will definitely be able to flourish! "
The father and son looked at each other and smiled, feeling very proud of themselves.
On the other side, the people from the Dragon Emperor Palace had also arrived.
After this incident, Princess Long rushed back to the Dragon Emperor Palace, hoping that King Dalong Of Zhao could mediate — after all, the Dragon Emperor Palace wanted to form an alliance with the Abandoned Sword Villa and had even discussed a marriage alliance.
However, as soon as she returned to the Dragon Emperor Palace, she heard the news that Shen Zhenyi had already agreed to this Hundred Gate Heavenly Pass Battle.
King Dalong Of Zhao sighed in admiration. "The Third Young Master Shen's courage is commendable. I really didn't misjudge him."
He had been cultivating in seclusion for the past few years and rarely went out. However, this time, he brought Princess Long with him to Soaring Sky City to watch the battle.
Princess Long was burning with anxiety. When she saw Shen Zhenyi appear, she frowned and said to her father, "Father, do you really think that the Third Young Master Shen has a chance of winning this Hundred Gate Heavenly Pass Battle?"
King Dalong Of Zhao shook his head. "The Hundred Gate Heavenly Pass gathers the strength of a hundred martial artists. In addition, with Law Master Ren in the middle, no matter how brilliant Shen Zhenyi is, his age is limited. He probably won't be able to win."
"Then the alliance between the two sides …" Princess Long was anxious and hurriedly asked.
King Dalong Of Zhao glanced at her, shook his head and sighed. "If Shen Zhenyi wins, then both sides can naturally form an alliance. I am also happy to see that you are a good match for your ideal husband. However, if he loses, where will the Abandoned Sword Villa be in the Flying Mist Province?"
If Shen Zhenyi lost in the Hundred Gate Heavenly Pass, he would undoubtedly die.
If he died, the Abandoned Sword Villa would not be able to survive for long. Of course, they would lose the opportunity to form an alliance with the Dragon Emperor Palace.
Princess Long had always known that her father was a realistic person. Just like how he did not hesitate to form a marriage alliance with the Abandoned Sword Villa in the beginning, he could also give it up without hesitation.
She did not insist on marrying Shen Zhenyi. The other party did not seem to have any interest in this marriage. However, during this period of time, Princess Long had been working hard to adjust her mentality to accept reality. Suddenly, she had to change her mind again. She felt a little strange.
Princess Long looked at Shen Zhenyi's figure that was whiter than snow. She lowered her head in silence.
If the observation of the two major forces was considered low-key, then the other spectators in Soaring Sky City were clamoring.
Chu Xie'er blended in with the crowd. She saw that apart from Shen Zhenyi, the other members of the Abandoned Sword Villa all had solemn expressions, as if they were facing a great enemy. She felt refreshed in her heart and said with a smile, "Today, I want to see The Third Prince's predicament in the Hundred Gate Heavenly Pass. He should also understand that in the World of Eight Cultivators, he is no longer the unparalleled Third Young Master Shen!"
The people around her echoed. "The Third Prince thinks too highly of himself. In the World of Eight Cultivators, experts are as common as clouds. I don't know what he has to be arrogant about. Senior Sister Chu brought us to join a big Juntian sect. Only then did we know that the world is vast and we are no longer frogs at the bottom of a well! "
Chu Xie'er laughed heartily. She was extremely proud.
At this time, Shen Zhenyi passed through the city gate and stopped in front of the two blood-red flags in Soaring Sky City.
This was the entrance to the Hundred Gate Heavenly Pass.
The Hundred Gate Heavenly Pass was a great formation formed by a hundred flag gates. When the flag gates were flipped, the formation would change, and the strength of a hundred people could be combined into one, transforming into various kinds of true qi. It was equivalent to fighting countless experts at the same time. No matter how strong one was, if they couldn't break through the hundred gates and reach the eye of the formation, they would eventually run out of true qi and be defeated.
"Have you memorized the key to breaking the formation that I taught you?"
Shen Zhenyi looked at the formation and turned around to ask Cynanchum Chinense. At this time, the Hundred Gate Heavenly Pass had yet to be activated. There were only countless shirtless strong men holding the flags and standing motionlessly.
Cynanchum Chinense bit her lips and nodded. "I have."
Shen Zhenyi smiled. He pointed forward and took a step back. "Then, go and break the formation for me to see!"
