History’s Number 1 Founder - Chapter 691

Chapter 691

Chu Yang's aims for this conference was very simple . He simply wished to introduce to everyone and leave an impression, particularly for the Celestial Sect of Wonders . This would facilitate communication with the Celestial Sect in the future .

Since he wanted to leave an impression, he must leave a good one . He must distinguish himself to shine but he couldn't outshine his host .

Chu Yang was a proud person . He was also rather head-strong . However, his special experiences left him slightly wary at times . He was rather calm and practical and he sought no temporary fame .

Reaching this stage in the spiritual conference, Chu Yang himself understood that it was about time for him to make a graceful withdrawal from the limelight .

With his results from the second round, he had achieved his objective .

The first and second round had many chance occurrences that may affect the results . The third round was a simple spar between the many contestants where might alone determine the results . Furthermore, he was going up against the only Aurous Core stage second-generation disciple of the Celestial Sect of Wonders, Dao Yuting .

Let's not even talk about whether he could beat her . If he were to truly try, then he would have to use his true powers . He could not win with one or two talismans . His many secrets would definitely be exposed .

With so many eyes on him, Chu Yang would not be very eye-catching if he did nothing . However, if he were to truly use his skills, then his cover would be blown .

In reality, Chu Yang believed that despite the talismans, many people had already thought of killing him .

In such circumstances, he would be courting death should he continue down his current path .

Before Chu Yang took part in the spiritual conference, he had thought through everything . Hence, he was able to make his decision quickly .

This was Chu Yang's original decision . Now, the prizes Shi Tianhao announced proved to be another incentive for him .

"A chance at a spar . . . " Chu Yang took a deep breath and calmed himself .

Shi Tianhao's gaze swept over the eight contestants' faces . He then said, "In reverse order, may the fourth and fifth contestants please step out . "

Everyone else went back to the quiet chamber to rest and watch the battle . Only Lin Tong and Zhou Yuncong were left in the arena . The little lass looked at her hands curiously .

Those who understood Zhou Yuncong's power looked at Lin Tong sympathetically . While the little girl's powers were extraordinary, her luck was just too bad .

In the luxurious lounge where the Marquis of Jinghuan sat, Xiang Heng and Wang Le had returned . Their gazes were fixed on Zhou Yuncong .

Xiang Heng said in a low voice, "Look, it's Zhou Yuncong . I couldn't believe that he asked Yang Qing to be his disciple and not Xiao Yan . "

Wang Le nodded his head and said, "We should have predicted this . If he had joined Xiao Yan, then there was a chance that he may over-cultivate and eventually be consumed by his mantras . "

The Marquis of Jinghuan held a fan in his head as he gently tapped his left palm with it . His gaze darted about as he said, "A Yang Incinerating Entity, indeed . Is that what the Great Master wanted? Someone who could successfully live despite his status as a Yang Incinerating Entity?"

He turned his head to Xiang Heng and Wang Le and asked, "Why does the Great Master want a Yang Incinerating Entity?"

Xiang Heng and Wang Le shook their heads and replied, "We don't know, Marquis . We really don't know . We are only carrying out the Great Master's biddings . "

"Acting all mysterious, eh? This interests me," The Marquis of Jingheng smiled slightly . However, this greatly alarmed Xiang Heng and Wang Le . They both knew that the Marquis of Jingheng was a lawless man who did things as he pleased .

The Marquis of Jingheng pointed his fan at them and said with a smile, "Relax, I'm just joking . I don't have time for these trivial matters . "

"Over at the Great Zhou, they are bugging me really tightly about the picture manual . All my energy were spent on that . It's truly a cause for a headache . "

While the Marquis of Jingheng said that, his face did not appear alarmed .

Xiang Heng and Wang Le both fell silent . After a long while, Wang Le said in a low voice, "The two of us are only responsible for carrying out errands . We probably aren't qualified to speak on your behalf . "

The Marquis of Jingheng laughed nonchalantly and said, "That I know, of course . I will talk to the Great Master about it personally . There's no need for the two of you to say anything . Just do what I instructed you to . However, if you make a mess out of it, you will bear the responsibility for it . "

Xiang Heng and Wang Le nodded their heads and said, "Naturally . "

The two of them turned to look at Zhou Yuncong in the arena once again .

Xu Yunsheng returned to the Heavenly Temple where the quiet chamber for disciples was . Sun Xue'er, Yang Tie, and the other disciples offered their congratulations to him for obtaining first in the second round . Xu Yunsheng returned their congratulations and then asked about the situations of others .

As they were in the Starry Tower Pagoda and the small world, the contestants could not possibly know the whole picture . However, the disciples who had been watching them knew .

"Senior Ying Luozha just managed to obtain the eighth placing . Actually, he had collected the ten golden rings a long while ago . Barring any incident, he would have been in the top three . However, he wasted too much time for Senior Zhuge Wanqiu," Sun Xue'er said with a sigh . "Senior Zhuge Wanqiu is rather pitiful too . She was number nine . She barely missed it . "

After Xu Yunsheng heard that, his expression did not change . He sat down for a while, stood up and left the room . He came to the quiet chamber for the Wasteland Valley disciples .

He did not open the door but instead, stood before it like a statue . After a long while, he turned around to leave . Just as he turned, he saw an amicable young girl walking towards him . It was Zhuge Wanqiu .

Zhuge Wanqiu looked at Xu Yunsheng and was stunned . Then, she said, "Senior Xu . . . "

Xu Yunsheng opened his mouth and then stopped immediately . he said softly, "It's really a pity . you almost made it into the top 8 . "

"Yes, I just need to work harder," Zhuge Wanqiu said with a smile . She turned her head sideways to look at Xu Yunsheng .

Xu Yunsheng fell silent for a while and then said, "Everyone needs to work harder . "

With that, he walked straight and as he passed Zhuge Wanqiu by, he said, "The spar between Junior Zhou and Junior Lin will commence shortly . Look at it carefully, I believe you can learn much from it . "

Zhuge Wanqiu stood there without moving as she looked at his disappearing figure silently . Finally, after Xu Yunsheng left her field of vision, she sighed and returned to the quiet chamber .

Xu Yunsheng too returned to the meeting point for disciples in the Heavenly Temple . The moment he entered the door, he saw Ying Luozha sitting there, focused entirely on Zhou Yuncong and Lin Tong in the light projection .

Xu Yunsheng looked at Ying Luozha and his gaze flashed . Then, he regained his calm .

"Junior Lin Tong chose such a battlefield . This will increase her abilities by 50%," Ying Luozha said without turning his head around . "Neither you nor I am her opponent in this terrain . "

Xu Yunsheng lifted his head to look . He noticed that the battleground had turned into a sea of white flame . The blazing inferno singed the very sky .

The two combatants were Lin Tong, ranked fourth, and Zhou Yuncong, ranked fifth . Hence, Lin Tong got to choose to the type of battleground . The little girl showed no mercy as she turned the battleground into a sea of Pure Yang Primordial Fire .

Xu Yunsheng nodded his head and said, "In such a battleground, I am truly no match for Junior Lin . "

"However, I feel that Junior Lin is going to lose . . . " Sun Xue'er said hesitantly . Xu Yunsheng and Ying Luozha looked at her curiously as Sun Xue'er recounted to them Zhou Yuncong's performance earlier on, particularly how his Yang-Incinerating Vital Spirit destroyed Yang Likun's Red Lotus Fire .

Xu Yunsheng and Ying Luozhe exchanged gazes . Then, they looked at Yang Tie and the rest, who nodded .

In the Grand Heavens Pavilion, Lin Feng could not help but laugh upon seeing the battleground Lin Tong had picked . "Little Tong, you are really too young too simple . "

Xiao Yan, who was by Lin Feng's side, smiled bitterly too . However, the two of them did not warn Lin Tong ahead of time . The little girl's mindset was not yet mature . She was still innocent and trusting . If she were to go out like this, then she would surely be taken advantage of . This was a time for her to gain some real-life experiences .

Shi Tianhao watched closely from the side . Even if Zhou Yuncong were to use his Yang-Incinerating Vital Spirit, nothing much would happen .

Things went as Lin Feng and his disciples had expected . Lin Tong was caught in a trap as Zhou Yuncong used his powerful Yang-Incinerating Clouds to battle against her Pure Yang Primordial Fire . In the battleground that Lin Tong chose, it was hard for him at first .

However, he only needed to let out a tiny bit of his Yang-Incinerating Vital Spirit to completely throw the little girl off-guard .

She lacked battling experiences but she had strong innate potential . She was extremely sensitive to the Yang-Incinerating Vital Spirit and she was terrified of it, like how a mouse is terrified of a cat . She could feel the pressure from her mortal enemy .

A black light flashed on Zhou Yuncong's body . Immediately, the sea of Pure Yang Primordial Fire was destroyed .

Destroying such a huge amount of Pure Yang Primordial Fire greatly increased the power of his Yang-Incinerating Vital Spirit, to the point where he seemed to be losing control of it .

Lin Tong's own Pure Yang Primordial Fire was not damaged . However, she knew she was helpless against this opponent and hence, she admitted defeat unwillingly .

Up to this point, the cultivators who had progressed from the second round was finally able to witness Zhou Yuncong's terrifying powers . While he was innately able to subdue Lin Tong, his powerful showing still created a huge amount of pressure for everyone else .

Ying Luozha fixed his gaze on Zhou Yuncong and said nothing for a long while .

Xu Yunsheng's gaze was not as aggressive as Ying Luozha's . However, all his attention was fixed on Zhou Yuncong . He tried to imagine how would it play out if he were in Lin Tong' shoes .

"Ying Luozha, do you know what I am thinking right now?" Suddenly, Xu Yunsheng telepathically communicated to Ying Luozha . Ying Luozha's body did not move as his gaze remained fixed on Zhou Yuncong . Xu Yunsheng did not mind as he continued, "I'm thinking what a joke both you and I are . "

Ying Luozha fell silent for a long while . He understood what Ying Luozha wanted to say .

Ever since they both joined the sect, they were fighting to be the top second-generation disciple . In reality, they two were the most exceptional disciples of the second generation . It was hard to tell who was the better one .

Ying Luozha was extremely arrogant . He did not even view Li Xingfei, Liu Xiafeng, and the rest as his competitors . Amongst disciples of his generation, he only viewed Xu Yunsheng as his competitor .

Xu Yunsheng, however, was polite on a day-to-day basis . However, deep down inside, he was proud too . Let's not talk about other aspects, in terms of cultivation he only viewed Ying Luozha as his competitor .

This situation persisted until Dao Yuting joined the sect . However, Dao Yuting joined as an Advanced Foundation Establishment stage cultivator and hence, her circumstances were exceptional . While Xu Yunsheng and Ying Luozha respected her, they believed that in the same stage they would be as powerful as Dao Yuting .

Lin Tong, after undergoing special training and cultivation by Lin Feng and Xiao Yan, could cultivate the mantras of man . However, she was ultimately born as a supernatural being . Hence, she was an exceptional case too .

Today, Zhou Yuncong's appearance was a great shock to both Xu Yunsheng and Ying Luozha .

In the Grand Heavens Pavilion, Zhu Yi used his supernatural awareness to sweep through his disciples . He realized that they were all shocked .
