The melodious sound of the bell rang out as though it came from the ancient times, lingering in the air above the Imperial Heaven Gate.
The light in Jiang Xiaofan's eyes gradually faded. He had already stepped down from the peak of Wuwei Peak and looked down calmly. At this moment, the Imperial Heaven Gate was in an uproar again. Many disciples rushed towards the west. The core competition would be held there.
"Pervert, how are your preparations going?!"
Ye Yuanxue was dressed in purple and floated over like a beautiful butterfly.
Jiang Xiaofan smiled and nodded. Beside him, Ye Qiuyu and Bing Xin were both there. The little girl was still in a deep sleep. Bing Xin didn't wake her up and left her on Fairy Peak. Even if she woke up later, there would be someone there to take care of her.
The four of them walked together and headed forward. The core competition was a competition between inner sect disciples and was also the key for the Imperial Heaven Gate to select their core combat strength. It could be said to be very important and far from what the inner sect qualifiers could compare to.
"Brother Jiang …"
Suddenly, a calm voice rang out. It sounded a little familiar.
The few of them turned their heads at the same time. In front of them, a young man was walking towards them. It was Chen Yifeng. He had a faint smile on his face and gave off a scholarly feeling. He was very amiable and would easily give people a good impression of him.
"Brother Chen, long time no see. You are still as elegant as ever."
Jiang Xiaofan smiled in response. Chen Yifeng gave him a good feeling. However, ever since he entered the Imperial Heaven Gate, they had only met twice. He always had a feeling that this man was unfathomable. He couldn't see through him.
Chen Yifeng was like his name. He was as calm as the wind, giving off an elegant and otherworldly feeling. He nodded to Ye Yuanxue and the other two girls and smiled. "I've been busy cultivating and rarely go out. Brother Jiang, on the other hand, has been very famous recently. Yifeng is very impressed."
"Brother Chen, you praise me too much. I've only caused a lot of trouble." Jiang Xiaofan shook his head awkwardly. He looked forward and continued, "It seems like Brother Chen is also going to that place. Why don't you come with us?"
Chen Yifeng nodded and said with a smile, "Since Brother Jiang has invited me, Yifeng will naturally accompany you. Then I'll have to trouble you."
The few of them walked together. Ahead of them was a vast field that was overgrown with green grass. Looking from afar, there was an enormous Divine Altar lying in the center. It was almost three thousand meters in length and width, and there were strands of multicolored light flickering on it. Even Jiang Xiaofan couldn't help but be shocked. He could faintly feel a faint pressure from this Divine Altar of Crimson Clouds.
"You felt it?" Ye Qiuyu chuckled softly and said, "This Crimson Glow Divine Altar is a supreme treasure. Although it does not possess offensive capabilities, it is extremely sturdy. It can withstand a full-powered strike from a Renhuang without shattering."
"It can't be? That's ridiculous! "
Jiang Xiaofan's eyes widened as he looked ahead. It was hard to imagine that the Crimson Cloud Platform was actually a treasure. He couldn't help but feel rueful. As expected of an Immortal Dao Sect, the Imperial Heavenly Sect had such a deep foundation. To think that they would use a supreme treasure as the main battlefield of the core competition.
A supreme treasure, that was the most powerful magic treasure that was second only to an immortal artifact!
How many immortal artifacts could there be in the entire Ziwei Ancient Star? They could be counted with one hand, and it was very difficult for any one of them to appear. It was also because of this that supreme treasures had undoubtedly become the most powerful divine artifacts in the eyes of cultivators. But now, the Imperial Heavenly Sect was actually using a supreme treasure as the battle stage. Jiang Xiaofan was stunned. This was really too extravagant.
There were many people surrounding this place. The core competition had begun here, and all the disciples of the Imperial Heavenly Sect could watch it. Even the outer sect disciples could enter this place. This was also to increase their motivation so that they could work harder in their cultivation and strive to become inner sect disciples one day, or even core disciples.
"The core competition. I wonder how many people can become core disciples this time."
"I'm not sure, but at most seven people, or even fewer. This is different from the inner sect qualifiers. If you want to become a core disciple, you have to at least be at the Illusionary God Realm and above. Moreover, you also have to have an extremely large amount of Contribution Points to the sect. It can be said to be very strict."
"I'm afraid that Vicious Jiang from Wuwei Peak won't have any problems, right?"
"Nonsense, if that vicious person can't win, wouldn't Ying Tianyang have died for nothing?!"
There were people discussing softly outside the arena. The core competition of the Imperial Heavenly Sect was held once every ten years, so it was naturally very strict. Not only did it require a powerful cultivation and a large amount of Contribution Points to the sect, but there was also a requirement of age. Those who were above 30 years old would no longer have the qualifications to participate in the core competition. Therefore, even if there were some inner sect disciples who were at the Illusionary God Realm and above, due to various reasons, they couldn't become core disciples in the end.
Jiang Xiaofan and the others walked to this place, and someone happened to look back. Immediately, they turned pale with fright and jumped far away with a swoosh. The people at the side were very puzzled. However, when they turned back and saw the few people walking over, everyone started to move.
Swish, swish, swish …
These people's movements were as fast as they could. When their gazes landed on Jiang Xiaofan, all of them turned pale with fright. Cold sweat flowed down their faces as they jumped far away from him like he was the plague. In just a short moment, the originally crowded crowd became sparse, and a passageway appeared in front of them. It was as wide as five people and led straight to the Scarlet Dawn Divine Platform.
It couldn't be helped. A person's reputation was like a tree's shadow. In this one year, the things that Jiang Xiaofan had done were too earth-shattering. And the most shocking thing was that he had personally killed Ying Tianyang yesterday. Even on the day when the core disciple competition started, there were still many people talking about him. With such a fierce reputation, how could people not be afraid?
"Pervert, the trouble you caused is still somewhat useful."
Ye Yuanxue smiled mischievously and pulled Ye Qiuyue and Bing Xin forward.
"Brother Jiang, your reputation is not for nothing. You are indeed amazing."
Chen Yifeng smiled.
"…"
Jiang Xiaofan was immediately depressed. He suddenly felt like he was a murderous demon king.
The core competition was extraordinary. Almost all the elders were present. There was a high platform not far away, and that place was filled with more than ten people. Among them, Ying Xianling was also present. His eyes were red as he stared at Jiang Xiaofan.
Jiang Xiaofan glanced at him. He did not care at all and directly ignored him.
Ying Xianling's killing intent surged. He was about to stand up, but he was pulled back by the Pill Court Master who shook his head at him. Liu Chengan was overseeing the Wuwei Peak. They couldn't do anything to Jiang Xiaofan. Once they made a move, they couldn't hide it from that peerless existence.
"I'll leave first …"
Ye Qiuyu suddenly tilted her head and nodded to them. Then, she gracefully turned and left. Under Jiang Xiaofan's surprised gaze, she climbed up the high platform not far away and sat down on one of the seats.
"She …"
Jiang Xiaofan was a little surprised.
Ye Yuanxue curled her lips and said, "Pervert, you only know how to cause trouble. You don't know anything else. Sister is one of the seven core disciples of the Imperial Heaven Sect. Although the seven core disciples won't participate in the core competition, they all have to attend. This is also a kind of encouragement for the other inner sect disciples. It's the rule of the sect."
Sure enough, as soon as Ye Yuanxue finished speaking, a few more figures stepped into the high platform. They were all in their twenties. Among them were Zheng Yongfeng, Guan Yicheng, Qin Ra, and another man. He was a core disciple of Tianheng Peak.
"Wow …"
After these people appeared, many people below were excited. They all looked in that direction.
Although there were more than ten elders in the Renhuang Realm on the high platform, and they were much stronger than these core disciples, almost everyone's eyes were focused on them. Because these people were all experts of the younger generation. They were similar in age to the disciples below. Such achievements naturally made them more respectful.
"Buzz …"
Suddenly, the sky trembled and light flickered. Above the void, a young man stepped out. His black hair draped over his shoulders, and his face was sharp like a knife. He was like a god descending to the world. His appearance caused a huge commotion. Even some elders in the Renhuang Realm raised their heads and looked over.
"Zhu Xidao! Has he come out of seclusion? "
"It's him. The number one core disciple. He actually appeared!"
Many people exclaimed in surprise. A frenzy was instantly set off in this place.
Zhu Xidao was a heaven-defying genius. Anyone who knew and understood him would be shocked and terrified. He hadn't cultivated for a long time, but his cultivation was so strong that even some elders weren't a match for him. They couldn't fight with him.
It could be said that being born in the same era as such a person made many people feel sad. Because in front of this man, the so-called glory and achievements were really nothing. Compared to him, everything would pale in comparison.
Zhu Xidao was only 20 years old, but his eyes were deep. He walked down from the void like a god. Faint divine light flowed on the surface of his body. It couldn't be hidden at all. That was a sign that his cultivation had reached a certain level. He sat down on the high platform and slowly closed his eyes. He didn't care about anything around him at all. It was as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.
He sat there without moving or speaking. But he was like a light source. In an instant, he overshadowed all the other core disciples. At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on him.
Among the younger generation, he was fully deserving of the title of supreme!
Ying Xianling glanced at that place. His eyes became even redder. The murderous intent outside his body surged uncontrollably. There were seven seats in that place, but at this moment, one was empty. Ying Tianyang should have been sitting there.
It had to be said that for Ying Tianyang, all of this was really sad. He wanted to kill Jiang Xiaofan the day before the core competition and make him despair. However, the result was reversed. Jiang Xiaofan killed him, making him end in a state of unwillingness and madness. He would bid farewell to today's core competition forever.
"I'm going to kill him! Kill him! "
Ying Xianling gritted his teeth. His eyes were about to bleed. He stared at the man in white below. His murderous intent surged like a tidal wave. The Yangxin Temple Master, who was standing beside him, frowned.
Jiang Xiaofan felt Ying Xianling's murderous intent outside of the Crimson Glow Altar. However, he didn't care at all. At this moment, a faint light flashed in his eyes. He stared at Zhu Xidao on the high platform.
Not far away, a few other people walked over. The leader was a boy of 11 or 12 years old. It was Zhu Yunlin. He saw Jiang Xiaofan in the crowd and immediately looked over. He sneered and said, "Jiang, my brother's real body has come out of seclusion. This time, you're dead. My brother will crush you like a bug!"
At this moment, he was even more arrogant than before. His eyes shone with a fierce light.
He had been beaten up by Jiang Xiaofan several times in the past, but he slowly endured it. But now, he didn't have to worry about anything. Because his genius brother, Zhu Xidao, had come out of seclusion and was sitting on the high platform not far away. He could be as unrestrained as before. He didn't care about anyone else.
There were many people around here. Naturally, there were people who noticed this scene. They all turned their gazes over and discussed in low voices. Zhu Xidao's real body had come out of seclusion. Zhu Yunlin was undoubtedly even more arrogant. Most probably, even the elders of the Imperial Heaven Sect had to be wary of him. They looked at Jiang Xiaofan, and many shook their heads.
Jiang Xiaofan was still staring ahead. It was as if he didn't hear Zhu Yunlin's words at all. At this moment, there was only Zhu Xidao who was on the high platform in his eyes. Divine light flashed in his eyes. He couldn't forget everything that had happened in the past.
However, when he didn't speak, Zhu Yunlin became even more unrestrained. He wasn't old, but he was very impulsive. He said, "Don't think that old fart from Wuwei Peak can protect you. If my brother wants to kill someone, no one can stop him!"
Jiang Xiaofan's expression turned cold. His eyes were cold as he looked over emotionlessly.
Elder Liu Chengan was the elder he respected the most. Now that he was called an old fart, how could he remain silent? Although he didn't move, circles of silver light spread out from the soles of his feet, converging into a large silver hand. It slapped Zhu Yunlin heavily, sending him flying.
"You!"
Zhu Yunlin cried out in shock. He didn't expect that Jiang Xiaofan would actually dare to make a move against him in front of his brother.
In this place, everyone's eyes were wide open. They were all pale with fright. Zhu Xidao's real body had already come out of seclusion and was on the high platform in front. But now, Jiang Xiaofan actually dared to make a move against his younger brother. This caused many people to break out in cold sweat. They couldn't help but roll their eyes. As expected of a ruthless person, an absolute ruthless person.
