"Bai Wuya's way of doing things is truly different from the masses." The Myriad Incarnations Immortal King's eyes flashed with a bright light.
"Indeed, the one who persisted till the end in your illusion-scape was someone Bai Wuya regarded highly. He was the only one who didn't rest, while the others all got some time to rest. However, Bai Wuya treated everyone equally and directly attacked. This was disadvantageous to the person he regarded highly, yet he didn't show any favoritism at all."
An old immortal king with a transcendent demeanor praised. This old immortal king was the oldest in the banquet, even older compared to the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor. The people of the immortal realms had already forgotten his name and directly referred to him as the Undying Immortal King.
"If one wants to enter the tutelage of his Majesty, one naturally has to be extraordinary. Maybe Bai Wuya did this because he wanted to see how extraordinary Qin Wentian was. If he couldn't, given Bai Wuya's personality, he would rather admit that his judgement was wrong. But if Qin Wentian still persisted, he would surely gain more impressions."
The immortal kings laughed, not caring about the expression on the Deepflame Immortal King's face. Earlier, the destructive might Deepflame unleashed had already caused them to be extremely unhappy. Who were these people seated here? All of them were immortal kings. For those who could reach this level, which of them wouldn't be proud and arrogant? If you, Deepflame, want to fight against Bai Wuya, go ahead and do so, don't affect others. What's the point of unleashing his might against everyone here?
They came here because of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor. The Deepflame Immortal King was merely a subordinate of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor, there was no need to give him too much face.
"Seems like there are many who regard this young man highly?" The Deepflame Immortal King's eyes flickered with destructive flames as a smile that was not a smile appeared on his face.
"What's the point? This old man is already old and has no plans to accept a disciple. I'm just guessing who the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor would choose." Although the Undying Immortal King didn't fear Deepflame, his personality was that of a good-natured old man. He wouldn't target anyone.
"Let's see." The beautiful Myriad Incarnations Immortal King smiled, causing the hearts of people to stir. After all, she was a true celestial maiden.
Bai Wuya was still waving his hands. Every single attack was filled with a true killing force that could truly destroy one's willpower. Once one's willpower could no longer withstand it, one's life would be directly destroyed and killed by him.
After a few more times, there were a few who initially wanted to retreat but were too hesitant. They were all killed as their life auras dissipated. The people on the nine mountains stared at their corpses as their hearts trembled. Although they wanted to retreat, their wills were already on the verge of collapse, yet they were still hesitating. How could they withstand the killing intent of the White-Robed Immortal King?
At this moment, Qin Wentian laid powerlessly on the ground, slumping on the mountain peak. Not only him, none of the other four on the ninth peak were still able to stand. All of them had collapsed onto the ground. This was a battle of wills. Qin Wentian inclined his head and stared at the figure in the air. His entire body was covered in white runic light, maintaining the flames of his life. His will was indestructible, incomparably resolute. When he stared at the White Robe Immortal King, there was no trace of hatred in his eyes. In fact, there was even a hint of yearning in his eyes. He hoped that one day, he too would be able to achieve such magnificence.
"I withdraw!" More and more people shouted. Being able to enter the top hundred, all of them had extraordinary combat prowess. But when faced with a true killing test like this, in addition to the fact that no one knew if they would be able to survive until the end of the nine participants, not many of them dared to risk their lives. In addition, from the perspectives of many, there were already four participants on the ninth peak. They couldn't even be compared to those on the ninth peak after two consecutive tests and the Eastern Sage Great Emperor only accepted a single disciple. Their hopes were already extremely bleak and there was no need for them to risk their lives. With such thoughts in their minds, their wills would naturally weaken. If they didn't withdraw, they would only die.
The White Robe Immortal King who was in the air lifted his hand once more. With a wave of his hand, his killing intent gushed forth as another person was killed.
"I withdraw!" At the same time, there were a few people who were on the verge of despair as they shouted out. After which, the White Robe Immortal King halted his actions and turned his gaze downwards as he spoke, "I initially wanted nine participants but there were a few who chose to withdraw at the same time. Right now, there are only eight of you remaining. In that case, the eight of you shall follow me to the banquet."
As the sound of the White Robe Immortal King's voice faded, the faces of those who chose to withdraw earlier turned ashen as they felt boundless regret. They had fought for so long until now. If they didn't choose to withdraw earlier, they would be able to enter the immortal palace. However, they couldn't endure it any longer and chose to withdraw. Who could be blamed for this? They could only blame their own wills for not being resolute enough.
"Follow me." The White Robe Immortal King waved his hand as a surge of immortal energy enveloped the eight of them. After which, a bright light flashed as eight of them directly vanished from this place. Among them, the ninth peak was completely empty. The four participants who chose to ascend the ninth peak had all persevered.
"The five with the most outstanding performance during the test of the female immortal king have all persevered. Seems like the probability of the Eastern Sage Great Emperor choosing a disciple is even higher." Everyone mused in their hearts. Since the Eastern Sage Great Emperor was accepting disciples, he would naturally choose the most outstanding ones. Since the five of them performed outstandingly in every test, the probability of them becoming the Eastern Sage Great Emperor's disciple was naturally the highest.
However at this moment, the eight participants who were brought to the banquet weren't feeling too good either. All eight of them were panting, feeling extremely weak.
The immortal sense of the White Robe Immortal King vanished. They only saw him sitting at a certain location in the banquet, quietly drinking his wine as though what happened earlier had nothing to do with him.
Only to see that at this moment, the Undying Immortal King waved his hands as a resplendent green light shone on the eight participants. Waves of life energy cleansed their bodies and in a short instant, Qin Wentian and the others felt their bodies being filled with an intense vitality, as though they were filled with boundless energy.
"This feeling is truly marvelous." Qin Wentian silently mused. He truly couldn't hold on any longer, it was like rain after a long drought. It was too comfortable. His gaze swept over the people at the banquet. Many of them were supreme characters with unfathomable depths. Their eyes seemed to be able to see right through him.
Dongsheng Ting walked over. The gazes of the immortal kings landed on him as they smiled, "Does the Eastern Sage Great Emperor still need us to take the test?"
"No need, everyone has already passed the test. My royal father has seen everything and it's already enough. If he wants to accept disciples, he naturally has his own plans." Dongsheng Ting shook his head. After which, his gaze landed on the statue of the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor. Beams of light flashed as the statue actually emanated a faint aura of life. After which, the statue transformed into a real person.
The supreme characters at the banquet all stood up and bowed to the statue, "We pay our respects to the Eastern Sage Great Emperor."
At this instant, these arrogant immortal kings all retracted their arrogance. Regardless of particle worlds or immortal realms, they all revered the strong. Although these people were immortal kings, they were nothing in front of the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor. At their level, the difference of a single level was undoubtedly a heavenly moat.
"Everyone, please be seated." The will of the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor manifested. He sat on the host seat and stared at Qin Wentian and the other seven as he spoke, "All of you, come up here. What are your names?"
"Your Majesty, my name is Que Tianyi."
"Your Majesty, my name is Blackpeak."
Everyone reported their names, including Qin Wentian, their attitudes were all extremely respectful.
The Dongsheng Heaven Emperor inclined his head slightly as he swept his gaze over everyone. His eyes seemed to be able to see through the souls of people.
"Your performances are all not bad but this time around, I will only accept a single disciple. As for the others, if any of you are interested, you can also accept them as your disciples." The Dongsheng Heaven Emperor spoke.
"Since your Majesty is so interested, I'm also willing to accept a disciple." Deepflame smiled as he stared at the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor.
"Deepflame, do you have the time to teach others?" The Dongsheng Heaven Emperor laughed. The dangerous Deepflame actually had a silly smile on his face as he replied, "This time around, Deepflame will definitely do his best."
"Haha, I'm really looking forward to it. Deepflame, who do you think I should accept as a disciple out of these eight?" The Dongsheng Heaven Emperor stared at Deepflame as he asked.
"How would I dare to comment on your Majesty's matters?" Deepflame replied.
"Since I asked you to suggest something, just do it. Don't talk nonsense." The Dongsheng Heaven Emperor unhappily spoke.
"In that case, if Deepflame is so bold, I feel that Que Tianyi is not bad." Deepflame spoke. As the sound of his voice faded, the Scarce Moon Immortal King felt joy in his heart as an expression of gratitude appeared on his face. Just this sentence alone was enough to make the Scarce Moon Immortal King owe Deepflame a favor.
"Mhm." The Dongsheng Heaven Emperor didn't express his opinion. He turned to Bai Wuya and spoke, "Bai Wuya, you are the youngest here. Before this, I saw that your attitude was different from Deepflame's. What do you think?"
"Your Majesty will naturally accept disciples based on your heart. If you want to ask me, I would say that Qin Wentian is more pleasing to the eye. If you want to talk about the reason, he is the youngest." Bai Wuya laughed.
Qin Wentian started, feeling somewhat taken aback. Before this, the moment he exited the illusion-scape, Bai Wuya attacked him, not giving him any face at all. But he didn't expect that Bai Wuya would actually speak up for him, as though he thought highly of him. Indeed, things cannot be judged on the surface.
"Makes sense." The Dongsheng Heaven Emperor glanced at Qin Wentian before turning to the Myriad Incarnations Immortal King and smiled, "Fairy Myriad Incarnations, what about you?"
"I prefer Hua Taixu. His cultivation method is somewhat similar to mine." The Myriad Incarnations Immortal King laughed.
"Old fellow, you are already so old. Why don't you give me some suggestions?" The Dongsheng Heaven Emperor turned to the Undying Immortal King.
The eyes of the Undying Immortal King flickered with a light of wisdom. He stroked his beard and smiled, "All of them are not bad. Your Majesty should already have a decision in your heart."
"You old fox." The Dongsheng Heaven Emperor laughed. After which, his gaze roamed about the eight of them. Finally, his eyes landed on Qin Wentian as he smiled, "Qin Wentian, are you willing to enter my tutelage?"
As the sound of his voice faded, the countenances of the crowd froze. Many stared at Qin Wentian with envy. In the end, did the Eastern Sage Great Emperor choose him?
Qin Wentian's performance was truly dazzling. Since the Eastern Sage Great Emperor chose him, it should be because he already had his eyes on Qin Wentian. In addition, his talent was also very high.
