Chapter 2792
The chills of horror bit bone-deep like a thousand needles . The death of Venerable Xian and Zhang Cangsheng traumatized the rest of the crowd .
The Everlasting realm was unreachable for virtually everyone here . They could try for a lifetime and never find success . This realm was the peak of True Gods in many’s beliefs . It meant being invincible, not counting progenitors .
However, two Everlastings have fallen today and didn’t even put up a good fight . Li Qiye was clearly superior in all regards - a one-sided domination .
It became obvious that Li Qiye’s actual realm was also unreachable to the spectators present . They would never be able to see his true capabilities .
“So our system has another Far-dao Everlasting?” One True God stared at Li Qiye with reverence .
If the Everlasting realm was the peak in the eyes of the commoner, the Far-dao realm was the true pinnacle - the desired limit of all True Gods .
It served as a measuring pole of the dao . Many have tried but only a few have reached the top .
Numerous ancestors and Eternals exchanged glances of reverence . Far-dao Everlastings were exceedingly rare in Immortal Lineage . In Immortal Demon, the only person in this realm was Everlasting Jiang .
He was considered to be the number one in the system after the great progenitor . He should be unbeatable with his peerless grand dao .
Thus, if Li Qiye was proven to be a Far-dao Everlasting, it would be way too shocking . Not just Immortal Demon but all of Immortal Lineage would be shocked by this .
It meant that Immortal Demon had two Far-daos, allowing it to stand against any other system, whether it be Dragon Palace, Immortal Cauldron Mountain, or the Academy of Light .
“Either he’s one already, or he isn’t that far away as a Supreme Everlasting, a peak one at that, only one step away from being a Far-dao . ” An experienced Eternal speculated .
“No, thi-this can’t be…” Laments could be heard all over the mountain .
The death of the two ancestors left their disciples in shock . They couldn’t accept that their unbeatable ancestors have been killed by Li Qiye .
Thus, they cried and bellowed in horror while being filled with despair . They didn’t even have the courage to look at Li Qiye, let alone wanting revenge . They were nothing more than ants in comparison .
Even those wanting revenge were powerless like a struggling ant . The only thing they could do right now was lament, not only because of the dead ancestors but also because of their sect and their own fate .
However, the other spectators only stared at them emotionlessly . No one tried to console or show them any sympathy .
This scene where the strong eat the weak was too common in the cultivation world . Most wouldn’t care if Central and Eight Trigrams were to be destroyed .
After all, for many millions of years now, Eight Trigrams and Central have ended numerous lineages and taken their territories . A cycle of rise and fall was the order of things .
“Please sit on the throne, Young Noble . ” The hall king remained calm, seemingly expecting this outcome .
Li Qiye smiled and walked towards the ancestral throne . His pace looked weak and feeble unlike that of an invincible existence . He resembled a feeble scholar that needed to take a break after every few steps .
The hall king came over to help him climb up the stone steps, not caring about her power and authority as an Everlasting and the leader of Longevity Hall . She stayed humble and assumed the role of a maid .
Everyone watched with full attention while she respectfully helped him climb up the stairs .
They suddenly felt that this was how it should be . Any existence needed to show reverence in Li Qiye’s presence .
So many ancestors were sighing, extremely impressed with the king’s foresight . She had vision and insight beyond anyone here .
She showed her support in the very beginning and even threw away her noble pride to carry him up . This initially perplexed the entire crowd . Why would she do something like this - they thought .
Now, they understood that it was the difference between them and her . Venerable Xian and Zhang Cangsheng didn’t have the same vision either, hence their unsightly death .
“Worthy of being a ruler for two generations, capable enough to have full reign . ” One ancestor praised, admiring her wise conduct .
Fiercest’s power became as clear as day . Mountguard was going to rise at an unprecedented rate .
But now, it was too late to curry favors after Li Qiye had shown his abilities . Sycophants wouldn’t gain his grace right now .
This wasn’t the case for the hall king . She chose him when he was the underdog and showed full sincerity and respect, certainly winning a favorable impression .
Perhaps Fiercest wouldn’t do much for her on a personal level, but the benefits for Longevity Hall were considerable .
On the other side, Eight Trigrams and Central have chosen to antagonize Fiercest without holding back . This meant that on a bad day, Fiercest could decide to destroy both of them .
This resulted in people being envious and jealous, not because Fiercest was enjoying this gentle treatment from a beauty . They were actually jealous of the hall king for having this chance of making Li Qiye happy . They weren’t qualified to do so anymore since the opportunity was gone now .
Li Qiye sat down on the ancestral throne, looking quite normal . This throne served as a supreme symbol for the rest of the system but it was just another chair to him .
“Anyone else objects?” He asked while peering at the crowd .
People shuddered in response, especially those who have voiced their dissatisfaction earlier . This group started sweating; their legs trembled uncontrollably .
They were afraid of retribution . It wouldn’t be hard for Li Qiye, if he were petty enough, to destroy their sects .
“You are the real deal, Young Noble . We are utterly convinced about your worth . ” Someone immediately shouted .
“I wholeheartedly agree . ” The others joined in with the initial dissenters being the loudest .
