The top forces of the Eastern Barren Territory gathered at the peak of Mirror Mountain.
It wasn't unprecedented but it was still rare. Many people were excited. They hadn't expected to see so many geniuses here.
They'd only heard of many of them but never seen them in person.
Later, they'd also see Xiao Wuji, the one who was as famous as the top geniuses of the Eastern Barren Territory.
On the Mirror Mountain Stone Wall, all the top forces had engraved spells that allowed them to see what was happening here. Xiao Wuji had chosen this place. This might be the last time he appeared in the lower Ancient Barren World. He probably wouldn't come back again.
Ye Futian's group waited as well. They were curious. What kind of person could cause such a scene?
Countless eyes looked towards the stairs. Lin Yueyao glanced over and then at Ye Futian. Ever since she'd met this guy, he'd always been the most eye-catching wherever he went. It was rare to see him ignored like he was on Mirror Mountain. Everyone else was the center of attention.
She was wondering if Ye Futian would be able to shine as brightly as he had in the past.
…
Finally, a figure stepped onto the stairs. He looked ordinary but as soon as he appeared, he became the center of attention. Countless eyes locked onto him.
His footsteps were very slow, but the time between each step seemed to be exactly the same, with an extremely strange rhythm.
His black hair casually draped over his shoulders, while no expression could be seen on his angular face. However, under that ordinary face, there was a pair of extremely deep eyes that seemed to be able to devour a person's gaze.
"Xiao Wuji." Everyone looked at the figure stepping onto Mirror Mountain but no one invited him.
Someone like Xiao Wuji must be doing something since he'd chosen to join a clan on the mountain. They just had to wait quietly.
Thus, the vast area at the peak quieted down. Only Xiao Wuji's footsteps could be heard.
He glanced at the peak but didn't look at the crowd. Instead, he looked at the relics on the peak.
Then, he lifted his feet and walked in a certain direction.
The first direction was where Ye Futian's group was.
Xiao Wuji naturally wasn't going for Ye Futian. He was going for the statues.
Many people moved aside involuntarily, emptying the area around the statues. However, Ye Futian's group still stood there without moving.
"Get out of my way." A cold and domineering voice rang out. The person who spoke was Tang Ye from the College. He glanced at Ye Futian and the others and did not hide the displeasure in his eyes. Just as he had said before, he did not like Ye Futian.
Yu Sheng glanced at Tang Ye coldly, but Ye Futian did not seem to care. He gestured for Yu Sheng to make way and walked to the side of the area. Yu Sheng looked at Ye Futian in confusion.
"Just watch," Ye Futian said casually as he looked at the figure walking towards the flame statue.
He was a little curious. How outstanding was this person who made all the geniuses of the top forces of the Eastern Barren Territory wait?
He didn't know if he was qualified to compete with him.
Not only Ye Futian, but everyone else was watching quietly. Xiao Wuji seemed to want to try the relics at the peak of Mirror Mountain.
Strands of terrifying flame intent shot out of Xiao Wuji's deep eyes and landed on the statue. Then, he closed his eyes and comprehended quietly.
After a while, strands of fire spread towards Xiao Wuji from the statue, gradually enveloping his body.
Is he going to do that? Everyone's hearts trembled, especially those who had comprehended the statue before. They knew how difficult it was to reach that step. Yet Xiao Wuji seemed to be able to reach that step not long after he arrived.
Xiao Wuji's body seemed to be burning. Strands of maple leaf imprints appeared faintly and then were devoured by his body. The spreading flame intent swept over him, bathing him in endless fire.
He flashed and stepped out, actually walking into the flame statue. His body seemed to melt into the statue. Sitting there, he comprehended the statue's intent.
As expected of Xiao Wuji. Many people's hearts trembled. As expected, he only used such a short time to do this, even if it was his first time here and his first time comprehending the statue.
Ye Futian's expression was calm as he watched quietly. Xiao Wuji's talent was undeniable for him to be so famous. His performance alone was something that few people here could match.
Of course, he was not one of them.
He wanted to see how far Xiao Wuji could go.
After comprehending for a long time in the flame statue, everyone waited quietly. No one complained.
Xiao Wuji was destined to be the top cultivator of the Eastern Barren Territory. Perhaps they could see him now, but many years later, most of them could only look up to him.
After a long while, Xiao Wuji separated from the flame statue. There were faint maple leaf imprints on his body.
He'd finished comprehending this statue.
Lifting his feet, he walked to the ice statue beside the flame one. He radiated an icy aura and his eyes seemed to be covered in frost.
Similar to before, he comprehended the ice statue. Then his body melded into the statue and he comprehended quietly.
After a while, he walked towards the golden statue at the side, which seemed to be made of pure gold.
But to Xiao Wuji, it didn't seem any different.
"Full elemental, huh?" he murmured.
"Yes, Xiao Wuji is a Full Elemental Mandate Sorcerer, including the Spiritual Elemental," Liu Chenyu nodded.
"There aren't many with such talent in the Eastern Barren Territory," Liu Feiyang murmured. "Unfortunately, he probably won't choose the Liu Kingdom."
Compared to the other forces, the Liu Kingdom didn't have any advantages.
In terms of national power, they weren't as strong as the Qin Dynasty. In other aspects, they weren't as attractive as the Donghua Clan or the College.
Thus, Liu Feiyang didn't have much hope. He guessed that Xiao Wuji would choose one of the Qin Dynasty, the Donghua Clan, or the College.
"You've been comprehending in front of these statues for a long time, but it seems like there's a big gap," Gu Biyue said, smiling at Ye Futian.
Ye Futian glanced at her. Seeing her beautiful smile and flirtatious eyes, he wasn't moved. He said, "Maid, why do you have so much to say? If you keep talking, I'll sell you."
"…"
The Witch's smile froze. She looked at Ye Futian resentfully.
Not bad. Sell it?
Ye Futian ignored the Witch's thoughts and continued to watch quietly. After Xiao Wuji finished comprehending the three statues, he seemed to lose interest and left the area.
Everyone's gazes followed him.
Xiao Wuji walked to a huge stone tablet. This stone tablet was very strange. A faint light spread out. The entire stone tablet was like a huge mirror, shining with illusory light. There were many figures carved on this huge stone tablet. These figures seemed to be branded on the stone tablet, with different depths.
Reflections on the Wall.
As long as one stood in front of the tablet, they could feel the powerful intent contained within. The more talented one was, the deeper they could leave their image in the tablet.
The different depths were all left by predecessors. The person who left the deepest image was seven inches into the tablet, as if embedded into it.
Xiao Wuji stood before the stele. A strange power enveloped him. Then everyone saw him step forward. With each step, he seemed to walk into the stele. A shadow was branded on the stele, growing deeper and deeper.
One inch, two inches … Xiao Wuji's movements gradually slowed down. A terrifying power pressed down on his body but he still walked forward. The shadow in the stele sank deeper and deeper.
Xiao Wuji didn't stop until eight inches of the Reflections on the Wall.
"Eight inches, another record."
Everyone looked at Xiao Wuji in shock. The Reflections on the Wall were eight inches deep. Xiao Wuji seemed to want to break the records set by the prides of the past.
Then Xiao Wuji walked to the area where the drums were. He raised his hand and hit the drum. The sound rang out and the air shook.
In an instant, Xiao Wuji seemed to understand the true meaning. His palms trembled and slapped on the war drum. Dong, dong, dong, the sound kept coming out, like a stormy sea.
The drum rang seven times before slowing down. Then the eighth, ninth, and the storm swept through the air. The drum vibrated in everyone's ears.
Many people couldn't do this no matter how hard they tried. But to Xiao Wuji, it was not worth mentioning.
So scary. Many people's hearts trembled. Any one of the ruins here would take them a long time to comprehend, but Xiao Wuji seemed so simple.
He seemed to have lost interest once again. He did not continue to comprehend these ruins and instead walked towards the Mirror Mountain Stone Wall.
That would be the final destination.
How many nobles could Xiao Wuji make appear on the Mirror Mountain Stone Wall?
The crowd only saw him close his eyes. The next moment, a terrifying fate rose behind him. It turned into all kinds of colors and bloomed crazily. At that moment, everyone's eyes froze. They stared at the figure and the dazzling fate.
Xiao Wuji had comprehended many noble wills. Every noble will seemed to be a whole. It was the most powerful noble fate, the superior noble fate.
"Unparalleled in the Ancient Barren World."
Even people from top forces with superior noble fate couldn't comprehend so many types of noble wills like Xiao Wuji. Even people from top forces with superior noble fate couldn't comprehend so many types of noble wills like Xiao Wuji.
If he could get Xiao Wuji into the College, the old guys from the College would probably fight for him.
From Tang Ye's perspective, Xiao Wuji had a high chance of agreeing.
Because he came from the College.
At this time, many Nobles from the various forces in the Eastern Barren Territory looked at a magic mirror in their clan. A figure was reflected in it.
It was Xiao Wuji. At the same time, they saw the situation on the Mirror Mountain Stone Wall in the Ancient Barren World.
These Marquises were all a little interested!
