The palace Chen Zong lived in was called Cloud Exiting Palace.
Outside the palace was an open space several thousand meters in radius, and beyond that was a cliff with a sea of clouds surging about.
In the open space several thousand meters outside Cloud Exiting Palace, three Floating Cloud Palace disciples released powerful auras that locked onto Chen Zong. These three looked to be around twenty years old and all of them were Transcendent Realm cultivators.
One of them was a Third Layer Transcendent while the other two were Second Layer Transcendent Realm.
"You're Chen Zong, the winner of the Dragon Transformation Battle?" The Second Layer Transcendent Realm cultivator tilted his head and stared at Chen Zong with a playful smile.
"What is the purpose of your visit? Speak frankly." Chen Zong responded unhurriedly. He had been invited by Floating Cloud King to come here and after learning about the Ten Year War, he was extremely interested in the Upper Territory's Great Sects and was planning to use all his time to improve his cultivation and strength. He really didn't want to waste time with insignificant people.
"Do you know what kind of place the Flowing Cloud Sealed World is?" The Second Layer Transcendent Realm cultivator's face sank, his eyes flashing with cold light.
"A cultivation place." Chen Zong replied directly.
"The Flowing Cloud Sealed World is the highest cultivation place of our Floating Cloud Palace, even we can't easily enter it. You're just a trivial disciple of a Four-Star Force, what right do you have to enter it?"
"Immediately hand over the Flowing Cloud Sealed World's entry token, otherwise you'll have to bear the consequences."
"Your purpose is to challenge me, defeat me, and take away the Flowing Cloud Sealed World's entry token." Chen Zong swept his eyes over them and grinned.
If he was defeated, he wouldn't have the face to talk to Senior Floating Cloud King about this matter, after all, his skills were inferior.
What's more, Senior Floating Cloud King was probably in secluded retreat right now.
"You've got some brains. That's right, you can choose any one of us to be your opponent." The Second Layer Transcendent Realm cultivator with a cold face grinned meaningfully, as for the Third Layer Transcendent Realm cultivator, he didn't say a word, but a playful look flashed across his eyes.
"Come at me together, I'm in a hurry." Chen Zong's tone was very relaxed.
One Third Layer Transcendent Realm cultivator and two Second Layer Transcendent Realm cultivators, all of whom cultivated Floating Cloud Palace's Spirit Grade Top-Rank True Cloud Sea Tactics and Spirit Grade Mid-Rank Top-Rank Martial Arts, were definitely stronger than ordinary Second Layer and Third Layer Transcendent Realm cultivators.
In contrast, Chen Zong cultivated a Spirit Grade Low-Rank Secret Art and a Spirit Grade Low-Rank Martial Art, but his strength was not something an ordinary Transcendent Third Layer cultivator could compare with.
By defeating three of them by himself, he had established his prestige and prevented the other Floating Clouds Palace disciples from coming to find trouble with him.
"Let's attack together, hahaha …" The three Floating Clouds Palace disciples were startled at first, but then they burst into laughter.
"Transcendent Transcendent's's old's Transcendent," Transcendent Sect's old's arrogant arrogant arrogant's.
"Heaven's Sect Transcendent Star." Transcendent Transcendent Star Star Sky The figure of the Second Layer Transcendent Realm master who spoke first flickered and like a white cloud being blown by a strong gale, he rushed towards Chen Zong with an overwhelming momentum, pushing his left hand out horizontally.
* Hong! *
Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi surged, covering a hundred meters as it blasted toward Chen Zong. Within it, streaks of white light were condensed, crisscrossing, and each of them carried a terrifying power. It was the power of heaven and earth.
This palm strike was enough to severely injure a Four Star Second Layer Transcendent Realm cultivator.
Although Chen Zong came from a Four Star Force, his strength was extraordinary.
Not dodging, he simply raised his sword.
At first, the sword light was faint and blue, but when the sword slashed out, World Energy surged and transformed into blue clouds. The sword light also became vast and powerful, cleaving through the air.
Blue Clouds Filling the Sky!
Chen Zong had already cultivated the Blue Clouds Filling the Sky Sword Art to the highest level and had grasped Sword Intent. The power of his sword strike was terrifying.
Blue clouds filled the air, colliding with the World Energy contained in the opponent's palm strike. It was as if two armies were clashing, shaking the heavens and earth.
The blue sword light split apart the opponent's palm strike and the White River Sword slashed down on the Second Layer Transcendent Realm cultivator, a tyrannical power erupting and sending him flying.
The sword light changed direction and the blue clouds in the sky surged, becoming even more intense as the dazzling blue sword light slashed across the sky towards the other Second Layer Transcendent Realm cultivator.
Blue Clouds Destroying City!
Third Sword Art … Blue Clouds Shaking Mountain!
"Sea of Clouds!"
"Wind Rising Clouds!"
The two Transcendent Realm cultivators were stunned when they saw their companion sent flying by the opponent's sword, but Chen Zong quickly followed up with two more sword strikes, causing their expressions to change drastically. Enraged, they didn't hold back at all.
The Qi of Heaven and Earth surged, covering hundreds of meters. Streaks of white light shuttled through the Qi of Heaven and Earth like dragons soaring into the sky.
This was the result of condensing World Energy to the extreme: World Energy, World Energy that belonged to the clouds.
World Energy followed the two Transcendent Realm cultivators' attacks and blasted towards Chen Zong, mixed with a white cloud of light. It was the Transcendent Realm White Cloud Force. At the same time, Chen Zong's sword also contained the blue World Energy and the Heart Sword Force.
A single sword strike shattered the Second Layer Transcendent Realm cultivator's attack and sent him flying, colliding with the Third Layer Transcendent Realm cultivator's full strength attack.
"So strong!" The Transcendent Realm Third Layer Transcendent Realm disciple was shocked.
His opponent was only a disciple of a four-star force, and he only cultivated a low-grade Spirit Level cultivation technique and sword technique. On the other hand, he cultivated a high-grade Spirit Level cultivation technique and a high-grade Spirit Level martial technique.
At the same cultivation level, his opponent was actually able to contend with him, how terrifying was that?
"Wind and Cloud Gathering!"
Pushing his palms forward, the World Energy around him became even more violent and the White Cloud Force surged forward. A thunderous rumble resounded through the world as the wind and clouds surged, seemingly capable of toppling mountains.
Strong!
Chen Zong hadn't held back in this attack, except for the fact that he hadn't used his Secret Art, he had used his full strength.
"Blue Cloud Extinction!"
Chen Zong gripped the hilt of his sword with both hands and raised it high into the air. The tip of the sword pointed straight at the sky. The green clouds in the sky gathered towards the center from all directions, and under the pressure of the collision, they began to spin at an astonishing speed like a millstone. The center was like a funnel that poured down, and like a green wing that covered the sky, it closed in on White River Sword.
The White River Sword's entire body was dyed with a resplendent azure light. It was dazzling and eye-catching, as if it had been forged from azure divine gold.
This was the final move of the Blue Cloud Empyrean Sword Art, as well as its most tyrannical move. The Blue Cloud Empyrean Sword Intent condensed and released without restraint.
Slash!
White River Sword pierced through the air and instantly slashed down. This sword strike didn't release any Sword Qi, but it directly split apart Chen Zong's Cloud Empyrean Sword Art.
When the power of the sword was released, it was called Sword Qi, and when it was restrained, it was called Sword Qi.
Sword Qi was unstoppable, unparalleled.
The wind howled, pushing Chen Zong's body forward, arriving in front of the Transcendent Realm Third Layer cultivator like a hot knife through butter, and slashing down with his sword.
The Transcendent Realm Third Layer cultivator's face changed greatly, his face filled with shock, and he immediately poured his Spirit Energy into his arms. Layer after layer of white Spirit Energy superimposed on top of each other, like overlapping white clouds, forming an astonishing defence.
With a loud bang, the white clouds scattered and the blue light trembled. The Transcendent Realm Third Layer cultivator was sent flying backwards, feeling as if his arms had been cut off. His Blood Qi and Spirit Energy surged, causing his chest to tighten and he nearly coughed up blood.
The blue light on White River Sword dissipated, and Chen Zong flicked his wrist, drawing a delicate flower before sheathing his sword.
At the same time, the blue clouds in the sky dissipated into wisps of blue smoke, and everything returned to normal. Only the crisscrossing marks and craters on the ground and the astonishing aura still lingering in the air proved that a fierce battle had occurred here not long ago.
Moreover, it had been a one versus three battle.
Chen Zong's indifferent gaze swept over them, a cold light flashing across his eyes. Turning around, he strode into Chu Yun Palace, no longer paying any attention to the three cultivators.
The three Floating Cloud Palace disciples weren't seriously injured, but they didn't attack again because they had already been defeated in the battle just now.
They had been directly defeated, without the slightest bit of trickery.
Although they hadn't used their full strength, for example, they hadn't used any Secret Techniques, but their opponents hadn't used any Secret Techniques either.
Moreover, they were disciples of a Six-Star force, Floating Cloud Palace, while their opponents were only disciples of a Four-Star force. There was a huge gap between their Secret Arts and Martial Arts, but even with such a gap, their opponents had still been able to defeat all three of them.
A loss was a loss, and they had their own pride.
"Let's go." The Transcendent Realm Third Layer cultivator wiped a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth as he watched Chen Zong's back disappear into the palace's entrance.
"Worthy of being a disciple of Floating Cloud Palace," Chen Zong stepped into Chu Yun Palace, secretly surprised.
All three of them were very strong!
Those who could become disciples of Floating Cloud Palace were far more talented than ordinary cultivators. They could be called elites among geniuses, possessing the ability to challenge opponents above their own realms. Coupled with the resources of Floating Cloud Palace, they were undoubtedly the number one force in Floating Cloud Territory. Their Secret Arts and Martial Arts were also extremely tyrannical.
Elite geniuses cultivated Spirit Grade Top-Rank Secret Arts and Martial Arts and received better training. Their strength was no small matter and they could easily challenge opponents above their own realms.
For example, the two Early Second Layer Transcendent Realm cultivators, if they used their full strength, were capable of contending with a Peak Second Layer Transcendent Realm cultivator from a Four-Star force. As for the Early Third Layer Transcendent Realm, if they used their full strength, they could also contend with or even defeat an ordinary Peak Third Layer Transcendent Realm cultivator.
This kind of gap was very large and astonishing.
The Transcendent Realm in this world was very different from the Transcendent Realm in Blue Waves World. The gap between each Minor Realm was very significant.
Even the difference between Minor Realms in each Minor Realm was obvious.
Chen Zong's Secret Arts and Martial Arts were inferior to his opponents', but he was still able to defeat them in a head-on confrontation, which was enough to show his strength.
However, Chen Zong was not satisfied with this.
There was still quite a gap between the talents of these three people when compared to Lie Jingyu and the others. If today's opponent was Lie Jingyu, Chen Zong did not have absolute confidence in winning.
Lie Jing Yu's talent was very high, so the gap between his Secret Arts and Martial Arts would undoubtedly be even more obvious.
"Secret Arts … Martial Arts …" Chen Zong couldn't help thinking.
Secret Arts and Martial Arts and a cultivator's talent were actually inextricably linked.
If a cultivator with average talent wanted to cultivate a Secret Art or Martial Art that was too high level, it would often take them a long time and a lot of effort without necessarily achieving anything.
Similarly, if a Secret Art or Martial Art was not high enough, it would be difficult to fully unearth the talent of a highly talented cultivator.
