The "Grand Assembly" finally began. Early in the morning, Zhu Yao sensed that there were many unfamiliar presences in the surroundings of the Lightning Divine Hall. She had originally planned to stay in the house and continue to stay at home. However, he was forcefully dug out by Yu Jin and dragged to the main hall's plaza to keep up appearances.
Lightning Divine Hall was known as the most mysterious organization in the Divine Realm, and no one knew how many disciples they had. Furthermore, they would not easily walk down the mountain, so no one knew that there were actually only three people in the Lightning Divine Hall. As for the paper men that filled the mountains and plains, they were all created by Yu Jin. This was a type of talisman envoy that possessed a bit of spiritual intelligence. If it wasn't struck by lightning, it wouldn't reveal its true form, so it was very difficult to see through it.
But after all, this was a mountain gate that only opened once every ten thousand years. The dignified Tower Lord was surrounded by people with blank expressions. No matter how real it was, people would still be able to tell. Hence, Zhu Yao and her master were forced to be strong men.
The people from the various continents had arrived early, and had already been waiting outside the lightning formation for a long time. Outside the Lightning Divine Hall was laid with the Nine Revolutions Five Elemental Lightning Formation, which possessed boundless might. Even an Exalted Immortal would not be able to enter unscathed. Usually, this formation would be closed, and it would only occasionally be opened when Yu Jin and Yu Yan were fighting.
Yu Jin said a few words to the two of them before opening the formation.
The lightning clouds surrounding the Lightning Divine Hall gradually dispersed, revealing a large group of people gathered outside. Taking a closer look, there were a total of five groups of people flying in the sky. Surprisingly, they didn't communicate with each other at all, let alone greet each other.
It seemed like these people didn't have a good relationship with each other. But … didn't they say that there were only four continents? Why were there five groups of people?
Yu Jin activated his pretentious mode again and changed into a business-like expression — the old man face. The Nine Revolutions Five Elemental Lightning Formation had already been completely withdrawn. However, the five people in the sky did not move. They just quietly flew in the sky.
Yu Jin glanced at the pink-robed disciple who was transformed from a talisman paper and said indifferently. "Come in."
The pink-robed disciple nodded. He then raised his head towards the sky and shouted, "Welcome, Advent Cloud Hall of the East."
Her voice was extremely loud, and the entire sky reverberated with her voice. It could be seen that it was imbued with celestial power. In the quiet sky, there was a group of people on the rightmost side. He slowly flew toward the main hall. I told him he wouldn't budge no matter what. So they had to take roll call before they could come down?
There were about a dozen people in that group, all wearing the same school uniform and hair accessories. Even their expressions were solemn. Among the crowd, there was a person holding a flag. On the flag was a vivid and lifelike Azure Dragon.
In an instant, Zhu Yao felt as though she was entering a sports competition, and the opening speech unconsciously rang in her ears.
The ones walking towards us were the representatives of Advent Cloud Hall. The Advent Cloud Hall's representative team was a well-trained team. They were in high spirits. They had a dignified appearance, and they strode forward in a uniform manner. They raised the eye-catching sign of "One Azure Dragon" high up in the air. Their vigor and determination to win could be seen everywhere. Adhering to the tenet of "Spirit Cultivation First, Friendship Is Bullsh * t", and promoting "Strive to be the strongest." Competitive spirit, to "higher". Towards the goal of becoming stronger and more awesome.
"Let's welcome Fengtuo Mountain from the south."
Following closely behind was the team representing Mt. Ketuo. The team representing Mt. Ketuo was a combination of athletics and beauty. They would use their own wisdom and sweat to display their tenacious spirit and youthful enthusiasm on the stage of ascension. At this moment, they were using their orderly steps, strong physiques, and good mental outlook to prove their courage and strength to win.
"Let us welcome the Fluorescent Wind Sect of the North."
Following the announcement of the announcer, the team representing Fluorescent Wind Sect stepped forward in an orderly manner, majestically and elegantly walking into the competition grounds. In an instant, it was as though a stone had raised a thousand ripples, with each wave higher than the previous. Look, the team representing Fluorescent Wind Sect has arrived. Dressed in a well-ironed school uniform, and with vigorous steps, we found vigor and hope from him.
"Let us welcome the Soaring Spell Hall of the West."
The next to appear was the team representing Soaring Spell Hall of the West. Every single member of Soaring Spell Hall of the West was filled with confidence, and was determined to fight with all their might on the competition grounds. They wanted to display their own elegance, and add new brilliance to Soaring Spell Hall. They firmly believed that as long as they worked hard, they could become Gods!
"Let us welcome the Scattering Cry Hall of the West."
The last to appear was the team representing Scattering Cry Hall. Scattering Cry Hall … Alright, she couldn't make it up anymore.
The moment they entered, in less than a few minutes, the initially empty main hall was already filled with people. Yu Jin still had that arrogant expression on his face. With his hands behind his back, his eyes indifferently swept across everyone present.
Unexpectedly, not a single person present revealed the slightest bit of dissatisfaction.
Instead, the various Sect Masters, Hall Masters, and Hall Masters who were said to be here to enter the tower, all stepped forward in unison, and respectfully bowed towards Yu Jin as a junior. "We greet Tower Master."
Yu Jin still maintained that high profile posture of looking at the sky at a 45 degree angle, leaving the five people a nostril angle. Only after a while did he lightly reply. "Mn." What was called being pretentious? This was it.
"Have there been any changes to your selection of people to enter the tower?"
The five people exchanged glances, yet no one responded. A while later, the Hall Master of Soaring Spell Hall stood out. "The five of us have already made up our minds to enter the tower. There are no changes."
Yu Jin swept his gaze across the five people leading the way. Without saying anything else, he turned around and headed towards the direction of the Lightning Divine Tower. "Those who enter the tower, come. The others stay." After saying that, his figure flashed, and disappeared from where he stood. He completely did not have the intention to wait for the five people.
However, the five people seemed to have already gotten used to it, as they were not in a hurry to chase after him. Instead, they turned around and instructed the disciples behind them. They were all the rulers of a large land, and since they had already decided to step onto the path of Godhood, naturally, they would not return. Hence, the ones they instructed were the successors who would take over their positions.
Only the Sect Master of Fluorescent Wind Sect was different. Instead, he walked towards a woman, and it was unknown what he said. That woman seemed to have tear stains on her face, and it seemed like she was his duo-pair companion. Zhu Yao frowned, feeling a little uncomfortable. Was becoming a God really that important? He even had to leave his wife behind.
Zhu Yao did not look for too long. After all, she was here today to support Yu Jin. After taking a few glances, she was pulled to the front of the Lightning Divine Tower by Yu Yan.
Yu Jin, with his white hair and official business expression pack, was already standing in front of the tower.
This was the first time Zhu Yao had truly seen the Lightning Divine Tower. Only after approaching it did she realize that not only was the tower tall, it was even a little ridiculously large. With a single glance, the bottom of the tower occupied more than half of the mountain peak. Its entire body was covered in red lightning sparks. She did not know what the surface of the tower was made of. It was as white as jade, yet, it would occasionally emit a rainbow colored light. As though it was alive, when the lightning sparks passed by, circles of ripples would even spread out on the surface of the tower.
Raising her head to look at this peculiar tower, she suddenly felt a strange feeling. Her chest felt a little stuffy, and even her breathing had become unstable. She took a deep breath, trying to suppress that strange feeling, yet, it instead became even more serious.
The five people who entered the tower had finally arrived. The moment they landed, they once again bowed towards Yu Jin. "Thank you for waiting, Tower Master. We can now enter the tower. "
Yu Jin however did not reply. Instead, he concentrated and circulated his divine energy. In an instant, three sharp-shaped imprints appeared on his forehead. Forming a seal with a single hand, a long incantation constantly flowed out from his mouth. Streams of incantations that seemed to have materialized flew towards the white tower's surface, slowly forming a gigantic formation on it.
Yu Jin's brows furrowed, red lightning sparks flashed in his palm, and he solemnly shouted. "Activate!"
The entire Lightning Divine Palace shook for a moment, and the Lightning Divine Tower opened.
Zhu Yao had thought that the so-called opening of the tower would be opening a door on the tower's surface. Who would have thought that it would actually open from top to bottom? The entire Lightning Divine Tower, which was connected to the ground, broke apart, and opened upwards. It was as though the entire tower had been severed, yet, the tower itself was not affected in the slightest.
This scene, which clearly defied gravity, stunned the earthling, Zhu Yao, yet, she felt the stuffy pain in her chest growing even heavier.
After opening, the white tower's surface rose, and the empty space was only filled with a rainbow-colored, glass-like radiance. She could not see the slightest bit of the situation inside.
"Let's enter the tower," Yu Jin said calmly.
The eyes of the five people who were waiting instantly reflected a joyous light. They bowed towards Yu Jin one after another, and then, they flew into the rainbow-colored radiance, and were instantly engulfed by the radiance.
Ever since the tower opened, Zhu Yao felt an unbearable pressure, as though something was about to charge out from her body.
Puuu. Zhu Yao who had endured for a long time finally could not hold on any longer, and puked out a mouthful of blood.
"Yu Yao!" Yu Yan held onto his disciple whose face was about to land on the ground. She was still fine earlier, what happened? Reaching out his hand, he sent a strand of divine energy over, yet, Yu Yan's brows furrowed even deeper. The divine energy in her body was currently flowing out at an extremely fast speed.
"Little little grand disciple, what's wrong?" Yu Jin was shocked as well, and could no longer care about acting cool. "Bring her to the Lightning Abyssal Pool first. I will come after I close the Lightning Divine Tower."
Yu Yan did not reply. With a turn of his body, he had already flown towards the Lightning Abyssal Pool.
The Lightning Abyssal Pool was located at the backyard, and Yu Yan seemed to have arrived at his destination in the blink of an eye. However, in this short span of a breath, Zhu Yao could no longer maintain her human form, and once again turned back into a piece of white jade.
Just as Yu Yan was about to place Zhu Yao into the purple-colored pool, he suddenly felt a powerful force assaulting him. He turned around and shot out a bolt of heavenly lightning behind him. After a loud rumble, a puff of black smoke dissipated, and there was not a single person in the surroundings. Forget about the person who ambushed him, there was not even the slightest fluctuation of divine energy.
Who was it? Why did they suddenly attack him? Was it related to his disciple's sudden return to her original form? Yu Yan frowned, as he could not figure it out. To be able to approach him without him noticing, the person's cultivation level was definitely above his. However, why did that strike earlier not carry the slightest bit of killing intent?
Yu Yan tightened his grip, and turned to look at his other hand which was still in the pool. Zhu Yao was currently lying steadily on his palm, and the loss of divine energy had stopped as well. The lightning energy of the Lightning Abyssal Pool, was currently entering the jade. He believed that not long later, she would once again be able to return to her human form.
Yu Yan heaved a sigh of relief, and just as he was about to release the jade, allowing her to absorb it. However, a powerful suction force suddenly exploded from the pool. He immediately grabbed onto Zhu Yao, but he lost the opportunity to dodge. With a splash, his entire body fell into the pool as well.
The pool shook, and a black light flashed at the bottom. Everything happened in an instant, so fast that no one could react in time. When Yu Jin, who had closed the Lightning Divine Tower, rushed over, the only thing left in the backyard was a pool of water that was still gently shaking. Forget about little little grand disciple, even Yu Yan was nowhere to be seen. (To be continued)
