Half a year unknowingly flowed by.
During this half a year, the Underworld Mountain in the City of Ancient Emperors became a place frequented by geniuses. However, there were very few discoveries. After the inheritances were taken away by the geniuses who had entered, there were no other good fortune to be had. Occasionally, there would be some who didn't believe it and even went to the extent of angering the ancient emperor in the coffin.
Zi Daoyang, Zhan Peng, and Little Rascal were still cultivating there, searching for the inheritances.
The famous Mo Xie had vanished without a trace. Some guessed that he was trying to break through to immortal-foundation, while others guessed that he was consolidating his foundation. Back then, when Mo Xie was defeated by Qin Wentian and the other two, he was definitely unwilling to accept it. Hence, there was a high possibility that he was consolidating his foundation and preparing to make a comeback.
As for Qin Wentian, he was undoubtedly the most popular topic of discussion among the geniuses in the City of Ancient Emperors.
He was one of the most legendary characters in the City of Ancient Emperors in recent years. He, Zi Daoyang, and Mo Xie were known as the three geniuses of the City of Ancient Emperors.
Even Namhwang Yunxi wasn't ranked in the top three. It wasn't that Namhwang Yunxi was weak, it was just that Namhwang Yunxi didn't have any advantage against Zi Daoyang or Mo Xie. However, Qin Wentian was different. When he was at the eighth-level of Celestial Phenomenon, he could already fight against Mo Xie with much difficulty. Once he broke through to the ninth-level, he would instantly be able to threaten Zi Daoyang and Mo Xie. Hence, the City of Ancient Emperors viewed the three of them as equals.
The Qin Sect was naturally also a major power in the City of Ancient Emperors. This sect had Qin Wentian, Qing'er, and Namhwang Yunxi. They occupied the third, fourth, and fifth positions in the Immortal Ascension Rankings.
Three months ago, when the Qin Sect announced their recruitment to the City of Ancient Emperors, the entire City of Ancient Emperors was in an uproar. Many geniuses happily headed over. Not only did the Qin Sect have a legendary character like Qin Wentian, there were also two supreme beauties. In addition to the fact that Qin Wentian cultivated God's Hand, as well as the fact that he obtained Mo Xie's inheritance, many geniuses wanted to join the Qin Sect.
However, the Qin Sect's vetting process was extremely strict. They wouldn't casually recruit new disciples. Anyone with ulterior motives would be kicked out. Only the true elites, as well as those with strong willpower and determination, would have the opportunity to enter the Qin Sect. As a result, in three months, the Qin Sect had only managed to recruit around fifty people. Compared to the Twin Stars Alliance, they were still far inferior.
In fact, among these disciples, there were quite a few at the seventh-level and eighth-level of Celestial Phenomenon. They didn't seem to place much importance on their cultivation bases. After all, Hua Taixu, Jun Mengchen and Zi Qingxuan were the ones who passed the test. Right now, their cultivation bases were only at the eighth-level of Celestial Phenomenon.
Right now, the prestige of the Qin Sect in the City of Ancient Emperors had already surpassed that of the publicly acknowledged number one power in the City of Ancient Emperors — the Violet Sect.
The Violet Sect was established by Zi Daoyang, and had always been known as the number one power in the City of Ancient Emperors. Not long ago, when the Twin Stars Alliance merged with the Xiao Sect, there were people who claimed that the newly formed Twin Stars Alliance could threaten the position of the Violet Sect. But now, it seemed that the Qin Sect was the one that truly had the qualifications to threaten the position of the Violet Sect. Since the three leaders of the Qin Sect could defeat Mo Xie, it was also possible that they could defeat Zi Daoyang as well.
Zhao Xin`er was one of the newly recruited disciples of the Qin Sect. Her talent wasn't that outstanding, and her cultivation base wasn't high either. She was only at the seventh-level of Celestial Phenomenon, and by right, she shouldn't have been able to join the Qin Sect. But because of her straightforward personality, when Jun Mengchen asked her why she wanted to join the Qin Sect, Zhao Xin`er actually told him that she liked Qin Wentian, and that after joining the Qin Sect, she would be able to see Qin Wentian frequently … Jun Mengchen was instantly stunned. After that, he laughed uproariously and allowed Zhao Xin`er to join the Qin Sect.
This matter even became a topic of discussion in the Qin Sect. The disciples of the Qin Sect were all extremely fond of this straightforward junior apprentice sister of theirs, and took good care of her.
After that, he also learned that Zhao Xin`er had personally witnessed the battle between Qin Wentian and the Xuan brothers. At that time, Zhao Xin`er was already at the seventh-level of Celestial Phenomenon, while Qin Wentian's cultivation base was the same as hers. However, the spirit and strength Qin Wentian had displayed back then had deeply shocked her, causing her to view Qin Wentian as her idol. After that, she decided to join the Qin Sect in a muddle-headed manner.
At this moment, Zhao Xin`er and another genius of the Qin Sect, Leng Pingchao, were having a meal in a teahouse. At this moment, a group of people walked in. This group of people exuded extraordinary auras, especially those in the lead. Their eyes gleamed with sharpness, and it was as though one could tell with a single glance that they were extraordinary characters.
After finding a place to sit down, this group of people started chatting. One of them then asked, "Senior Brother Que, we've already arrived at the City of Ancient Emperors. What should we do next?"
"We've just arrived in the City of Ancient Emperors and there are already people who have designs on us. Seems like the law of the jungle is extremely clear here. I'm preparing to establish my own power and use the fastest speed to stabilize my footing here," the young man slowly spoke. After that, he turned to the person beside him and asked, "Junior Brother Tianqi, do you have any ideas?"
"Although we've just arrived, based on our understanding of the City of Ancient Emperors, we can directly join a powerful sect that has matured. After that …" Gusu Tianqi faintly spoke, his words causing the young man in the lead to start. After that, he smiled, "Tianqi, your idea isn't bad."
"Have you guys just arrived in the City of Ancient Emperors?" At this moment, a melodious voice drifted over. This voice belonged to none other than Zhao Xin`er.
"Miss, what's the matter?" Gusu Tianqi asked.
"I heard that you guys want to join a power in the City of Ancient Emperors. Right now in the City of Ancient Emperors, my Qin Sect is extremely famous. You guys can try and see if you're able to join and become a disciple of our Qin Sect." Zhao Xin`er's melodious voice rang out as she smiled at everyone, actually taking the initiative to recommend the Qin Sect.
"Qin Sect?" Gusu Tianqi's eyes flickered as he involuntarily thought of a certain person in his mind. That silhouette on the battle platform back then. Could he be in the City of Ancient Emperors now?
If he was, how was he doing now?
"Miss, are there many beauties like you in the Qin Sect?" Among Gusu Tianqi's group, an ugly young man with a protruding mouth and ape-like cheeks called out to Zhao Xin`er.
"Naturally, the beauties of our Qin Sect are the most famous in the City of Ancient Emperors. The two most beautiful beauties in the City of Ancient Emperors are both from our Qin Sect." Zhao Xin`er smiled.
"Oh, is that so?" That ape-like young man rubbed his chin as he laughed, "Miss, are you trying to seduce us with your beauty? Our group of people are all extraordinary characters. If we join the Qin Sect, can these beauties of the City of Ancient Emperors accompany us brothers? "
As the sound of his voice faded, many in the group had faint smiles on their faces. They didn't seem to mind such a prank.
However, the gazes of the people at the side all turned over. Seems like these people had truly just arrived in the City of Ancient Emperors. They even dared to tease the two beauties of the Qin Sect?
Their guts weren't small at all.
"You brat, this is the first time you've arrived. Don't talk nonsense." Que Tianyi smiled at the ugly young man. Although he sounded like he was scolding the ugly young man, his tone was as light as the clouds and wind. Evidently, he didn't mind it too much.
However, Zhao Xin`er's countenance grew incredibly unsightly as she coldly stated, "Apologize for your words earlier."
That ugly young man stared at Zhao Xin`er as he laughed, "Beauty, if you want this elder brother to apologize, why don't you come over and have a seat?"
"HOW DARE YOU!" A cold intent gushed forth from Zhao Xin`er. Leng Pingchao, who was beside her, also glared at the ugly young man. "Sir, aren't you going overboard?"
The ugly young man coldly swept his gaze over, as though he didn't mind at all. He laughed, "You guys are the ones who said it yourself. Since you want to seduce me, let me enjoy the taste of a beauty."
This group of people were all supreme geniuses of the Dongshengxian Gate. Yet, they encountered a bandit from another sect the moment they entered the City of Ancient Emperors. Although they managed to force them back, their moods weren't very good.
"Enough." Que Tianyi spoke, glaring at the person who spoke. After which, he turned to Zhao Xin`er, "Miss, this fellow likes to joke around. Don't mind him."
"Joke?" Zhao Xin`er's countenance turned cold. "Do you think this is very funny? I want you guys to apologize. "
Que Tianyi furrowed his brows. With a single glance, he could tell that Zhao Xin`er and Leng Pingchao were both seventh-level ascendants. They should be from some minor sect in the City of Ancient Emperors.
"Apologize? You're thinking too much." That ugly young man coldly laughed. Que Tianyi indifferently replied, "Miss, this matter ends here."
"What do you mean by that?" Zhao Xin`er stared at Que Tianyi, her countenance cold. "Insulting others with words and not apologizing? End here?"
Que Tianyi frowned, he was already in a bad mood. This time around, he came to the City of Ancient Emperors because he wanted to break through to immortal-foundation. During these years, he had been cultivating under the Dongsheng Heaven Emperor and had yet to ascend to immortality. Hence, he wanted to see if there was any good fortune in the City of Ancient Emperors. But after entering the City of Ancient Emperors, he was repeatedly disturbed, causing his mood to worsen. He glanced at Zhao Xin`er and spoke, "Scram back to your sect. If you want us to apologize, get your sect leader to come here and talk to me!"
