Although Xu Guishan and Fang Yizhen were surprised that Chu Xiu had arrived so early, Fang Yizhen still took the initiative to greet Chu Xiu.
"I didn't expect Brother Chu to be the first to come out of that damned place."
"You two aren't slow either. We found a shortcut to get out."
Chu Xiu looked at Fang Yizhen and said, "Brother Fang, it seems you already have a card up your sleeve. The Three Pure Temple is probably one of the few sects in recent years to have two disciples enter the Exalted Divine Palace."
Fang Yizhen chuckled. "It's all thanks to you, Brother Chu."
"Oh? Why is that? "
"Because your robbery there gave me inspiration. After entering the Central Plains, I also chose a place to rob, and I also accumulated quite a few tokens."
Chu Xiu looked at Fang Yizhen with some surprise.
This was an outstanding disciple of the Three Pure Temple, but he was copying him in robbing others. This was a bit too damaging to his image.
Most importantly, Chu Xiu's robbery had spread to the entire Middle State. Those martial artists hated him to the core and took advantage of the fact that the Brahman Sect had made a move against him. However, no one said anything about Fang Yizhen.
It could only be said that the Three Pure Temple was too strong, so strong that even if those cultivators were robbed, they could only suffer in silence.
After exchanging a few words of greeting, Fang Yizhen sat down next to Xu Guishan.
However, Xu Guishan sat cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed, while Fang Yizhen took out a pig trotter the size of his face and gnawed on it. It was very inconsistent with his demeanor as a Daoist Master.
Although the two outstanding disciples of the younger generation of the Three Pristines Palace were both extraordinary, their temperaments were worlds apart.
Xu Guishan was a man of few words and had a calm personality.
Fang Yizhen, on the other hand, had a lively personality and a strong sense of worldly affairs.
Of course, no matter which one it was, neither of them were ordinary people.
The group waited for four or five days before another dozen or so people came out of the City of the Tragic Death.
Some people appeared very calm, such as Yi Guixie, Ouyang Sheng, and the others.
However, there were also a few Heaven and Earth Mystic Insight realm martial artists who appeared to be in a sorry state. It was obvious that they were chased out by a group of Demonic Ghosts.
Before the Great Heavenly Divine Palace, the Profound Understanding Realm cultivators had already been eliminated. Those that were qualified to fight for the final ranking would, at the very least, be Half Step Martial Immortals.
Everyone looked around. In fact, they had more or less figured out who the final winner would be.
The Three Pure Palace occupied two spots, so Xu Guishan and Fang Yizhen would definitely advance.
Next was the Heavenly Luo Treasure Temple's Fa Jing.
All the tokens and soul crystals collected by all the cultivators in the Heavenly Treasure Temple were in Fa Jing's hands. In addition, half of the tokens and soul crystals collected by the Brahma Sect were also in his hands. Therefore, Fa Jing's wealth was probably more than Xu Guishan and Fang Yizhen's, and he might even be ranked first.
Apart from the three of them, Yi Guixie from the World Sword Sect would definitely be able to advance.
This time, there were quite a number of people from the Sword Sect under the Heavens. Among them, Yan Zhi involuntarily gave up the fight for the ranking and gave his token and soul crystal to Yi Guixie, so Yi Guixie would definitely have a place.
Then there was Chu Xiu.
Although Chu Xiu had few subordinates, they were not weak.
Moreover, everyone knew that he had robbed a group of cultivators and then joined forces with the Heavenly Treasure Temple to kick the Brahma Sect out of the competition, obtaining half of the Brahma Sect's soul crystals and tokens. In this way, Chu Xiu might have accumulated more than Yi Guixie and would definitely be able to advance.
Therefore, there was basically no suspense in the competition for the Great Heavenly Divine Palace this time. The top five had already been decided, and only the last spot was still up for debate.
There were also many who were qualified to compete for the last spot. Among them, Zhuo Bufan from the Martial God Sect was qualified. He was a half-step Martial Immortal and had fought quite a few people from the Martial God Sect.
There was also Ouyang Sheng from Heavenly Sovereign Yuan Yang's lineage. He was only a step away from the Martial Immortal Realm and was even stronger than Zhuo Bufan.
Moreover, although he was alone, Xu Jiang, Chen Jiulong, and the other primeval sovereigns' successors who had entered this place before had all given their soul crystals to Ouyang Sheng, knowing that they weren't qualified to make it to the end.
There were also several cultivators in black. They were from the Mysterious Heaven Realm of the northern region and were also from a large Dao sect, but they took a different route from the orthodox Dao sects.
However, under the powerful influence of the Three Pure Temple, the Mysterious Heaven Realm was still able to make a name for itself in the northern region.
Although they had kept a low profile after entering the Central Plains, they were still qualified to compete for the ranking.
In the crowd, Zhuo Bufan frowned and looked around.
Among the people present, he was the most nervous.
Everyone else had victory in their grasp, but he couldn't afford to lose!
The Mysterious Heaven Realm had always kept a low profile, and the level of their disciples was also very average. They hadn't lost a single disciple in coming to the Central Plains this time, so it wasn't a big deal even if they couldn't enter the Great Heavenly Divine Palace competition.
Ouyang Sheng was only one step away from becoming a Martial Immortal, so whether he entered the Great Heavenly Divine Palace or not, he was bound to become a Martial Immortal. The only difference was that he could save some time after entering the Great Heavenly Divine Palace.
Zhuo Bufan was the only exception. He had only just become a Half Step Martial Immortal. Furthermore, he had gathered the entire War Martial God Sect to help him collect the title plates. If he were to fail, the War Martial God Sect would suffer the greatest loss.
Therefore, Zhuo Bufan looked around and suddenly transmitted his voice to Ouyang Sheng, "Brother Ouyang, what do you think about attacking Chu Xiu and snatching his tokens and soul crystals?"
Among the people present, the only one Zhuo Bufan could offend was Chu Xiu.
He didn't dare to touch the Three Pristine Palace or the Heavenly Treasure Temple, nor did he dare to offend the person behind Ouyang Sheng. There were many people in the Mysterious Heaven Realm, but only Chu Xiu was alone. Although Lu Jiang He was also here, it was clear that in Zhuo Bufan's eyes, Lu Jiang He was not a 'person'.
Moreover, there would always be a battle between the Eastern Region and the Southern Region. Therefore, he didn't need to consider the consequences of attacking Chu Xiu.
Ouyang Sheng said indifferently, "Why should I attack? I have accumulated enough soul crystals and tokens, so why should I attack now?
Zhuo Bufan, you want to pull me out just because you don't have enough? Do you think I, Ouyang Sheng, am an idiot?
Also, you have seen Chu Xiu's strength. He shattered a Martial Immortal's body with one strike and destroyed a Martial Immortal's Primordial Spirit with one strike. With such strength, do you still have the courage to cause trouble for him? "
Zhuo Bufan shook his head and said, "Of course Brother Ouyang is not an idiot. I do want Chu Xiu's token, but defeating Chu Xiu is not a bad thing for you, Brother Ouyang.
Previously, when you struck Chu Xiu while he was down, you had already offended him to the extreme.
Perhaps you didn't understand Chu Xiu before coming to the Central Province. He is a schemer, ruthless, and vengeful person.
Back then, when the people from the Bliss Demon Palace wanted to kill him, he actually joined forces with the Heavenly Demon Palace to stir up a storm in the Southern Region and destroy the Bliss Demon Palace in advance.
Although your Heavenly Exalted Prime Yang's lineage is powerful, it is still best to deal with an enemy like him in advance.
If Chu Xiu enters the Daluo Divine Palace and becomes a Martial Immortal, I'm afraid there will be no end of trouble for you, Brother Ouyang.
Furthermore, Chu Xiu isn't as powerful as you think, Brother Ouyang.
The other party is also a half-step Martial Immortal, but he was only able to kill Xin Jialuo because he relied on a secret joint attack technique executed by the people around him.
Now that he only has one guy with him who isn't that strong, how can he still use that technique? "
Ouyang Sheng frowned slightly but didn't say anything. Zhuo Bufan continued, "Moreover, I have another piece of news. Xu Jiang and Chen Jiulong died at the hands of Chu Xiu!"
"What?! Who did you hear this from? Is that true? "
Ouyang Sheng's expression changed slightly. Although he wasn't that close with these two, they had known each other for a long time. Moreover, the elders of the sect had also interacted with them.
Zhuo Bufan said, "Two cultivators saw it with their own eyes. As far as I know, the descendants of the Prime Sovereigns all have a single descendant, so they must have all kinds of secret techniques on them. You wouldn't have been killed without even knowing who the killer was, would you? I can't possibly deceive you about this, Brother Ouyang. When we leave the Daluotian Continent, you can ask the Prime Sovereigns behind those two and you'll know. "
Before Ouyang Sheng could recover from the shock of this news, Chu Xiu suddenly stepped forward and walked toward Zhuo Bufan.
"Zhuo Bufan, I didn't come looking for trouble with you, but you came looking for trouble with me. It seems that you really don't want to enter the Exalted Divine Palace this time."
Chu Xiu sneered and the aura around him burst forth.
Zhuo Bufan's expression changed drastically. "Chu Xiu! Don't you slander me! I'm just discussing the Exalted Divine Palace with Brother Ouyang. What right do you have to say that I'm looking for trouble with you? What proof do you have? "
Voice transmissions between cultivators of the same level could absolutely not be heard by others. Even a First Heaven Martial Immortal wouldn't be able to detect it.
That was why when others saw the exchange between Zhuo Bufan and Ouyang Sheng just now, although they knew that they were transmitting their voices, no one knew what they were talking about.
In fact, Chu Xiu didn't know what Zhuo Bufan had said to Ouyang Sheng.
But ever since he refined the Demonic Ghost's Soul Crystal and put on the Six Paths of Reincarnation Bracelet, Chu Xiu's senses had become extremely sharp.
From the way Zhuo Bufan looked at him, Chu Xiu sensed malice.
Since it was malice, why should he care what the other party said?
"Slander me? What proof do you have? "
Chu Xiu sneered. "I don't need proof when I do things. Besides, I don't like you right now and want to kick you out. Is this reason enough?"
As soon as Chu Xiu's voice fell, he had already swung his saber.
The invisible saber momentum instantly enveloped Zhuo Bufan. Ouyang Sheng, who was next to him, moved and turned into a golden ray, instantly dodging to the side.
His chances of entering the Exalted Divine Palace were almost ninety percent, so he didn't want to cause trouble at the moment.
And even if Xu Jiang and Chen Jiulong really died at the hands of Chu Xiu, it had nothing to do with him.
While they were alive, he could still help them by relying on their friendship.
But now that they were dead, Ouyang Sheng had no interest in avenging the two dead people.
