ng!


    In the depths of the Stele Forest, a ray of blinding golden light burst into the clouds, transforming into a sword with a sharp ng.


    Within seconds, a sword cry shook the world, and golden light filled the sky.


    Everyone felt a prickling pain in their eyes, and their skin felt as if it were being stabbed by needles. How could they not be dumbstruck by the mighty grand dao power that could form the vision of a divine sword piercing the sky and golden brilliance dyeing the mountains?


    At the same time, Ji Xingyao rose to her feet. The golden light flowed down her graceful body and took the shape of several brilliant, golden sword flowers as theynded on the ground.


    Si—


    Gasps rang out in rapid session.


    Everyone present was a top figure so they all knew that it wasn’t a simple grand dao!


    “The name of this dao is Supreme Mystery. Its fierce aura is unrivaled in the world, and it is extremely rare. It originated from the golden grand dao, but it is also detached from the golden grand dao and ranks above the first tier!” Mu Jianting murmured, his expression changing incessantly.


    Supreme Mystery Grand Dao!


    His words set off another wave of exmations.


    Fairy Ji is indeed worthy of being a sessor from the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms. Perhaps, only a peerless genius like her canprehend such a transcendent grand dao.


    Everyone’s gazes changed as they looked at Ji Xingyao. She was like a fairy and as beautiful as the moon.


    Boom!


    However, before everyone could react, another vision appeared—


    Amidst the chaos, a blue lotus drifted across the air, separating the clear and turbid qi like it was splitting heaven and earth apart.


    “Blue Lotus Grand Dao!”


    “Heavens, does such a rare grand dao exist in this world?”


    Everyone immediately recognized the grand dao power, and mutters of exmation and astonishment rippled through the area.


    It was rumored that in ancient times, a blue lotus was born in the primal chaos. It formed a path between heaven and earth and split the clear and turbid qi apart. It was known as the Eternal Sky Lotus!


    However, this was only a rumor and seemed impossible, so no thought that dao existed.


    As Yu Lingkong got up, clear and turbid qi circted his body, forming an ethereal aura around him that seemed invincible against allws.


    Everyone’s gaze turnedplicated.


    A sessor from the Longevity Land in the South Wonder World obtained such a remarkable blessing at the Dao Lantern Festival. Regardless of how glum they were, they had to ept it.


    “Congrattions Miss Ji for mastering the Supreme Mystery Grand Dao. In ancient times, this dao was considered one of the Four Wonder Kill Daos,” Yu Lingkong said with a gentle smile on his face.


    “I’m more impressed with you. In ancient times, the Blue Lotus Grand Dao was called the true profound dao of heaven and earth. I didn’t expect to see it reappear in the world after so many years.” Ji Xingyao’s beautiful face was calm as still water and her voice was clear and cold.


    Yu Lingkongughed heartily. “No matter what, the grand dao that you and I have grasped are both listed in the ancient Reaching Heaven Dao List. They can be called heavenly blessings to us!”


    Reaching Heaven Dao List!


    Emotions rippled across everyone’s faces.


    In ancient times, all the Saints in the world once assessed all the grand daos of the world and concluded that there were three thousand grand daos, but only ny-nine could be called Reaching Heaven and far surpassed the first-tier nine daos.


    Later, cultivators in the worldpiled that ny-nine grand dao into the Reaching Heaven Dao List ording to their mysteries and power.


    Those grand daos were also called pinnacle first-tier daos and reaching heaven daos!


    However, the Reaching Heaven Dao List was passed down from ancient times, and the Reaching Heaven Daos were extremely rare. It was near impossible toprehend and grasp them without great opportunities and blessings.


    Moreover, very few people in the world knew about such secrets after so many years.


    However, it was foreseeable that with the news that Ji Xingyao and Yu Lingkong had mastered the Supreme Mystery Grand Dao and the Blue Lotus Grand Dao respectively, the Ancient Reaching Heaven Dao List would also reappear in the Ancient Wastnd Domain and be known to the cultivators of the four great worlds!


    ……


    The atmosphere had be silent and still while a vortex of emotions was swirling in everyone’s heart. They were originally delighted with their dao blessings, but when theypared theirs to Ji Xingyao’s and Yu Lingkong’s, their joy and excitement faded and were reced byplicated emotions.


    In the outside world, they could be regarded as top dazzling geniuses known throughout the West Infinity World, but they finally understood what it meant by there was always someone better!


    There would never be a shortage of geniuses in this world. In addition to the geniuses in the Dao Lantern Festivals, there were many more talents in the four worlds of the Ancient Wastnd.


    Suddenly, a clear cry pierced the silent atmosphere and snapped everyone out of their rambling thoughts.


    They nced around, dumbfounded. A celestial phoenix?


    Light fluttered in the void like rain, dreamy and illusory, while a divine bird spread its wings and let out a cry that stirred the nine heavens.


    It was dazzling and gorgeous. Its wings spanned more than ten feet, and its body was like that of a powerful steed. Halos of divine light enveloped its body, sprinkling mists of sacred light onto the world.


    It was so mysterious like a bird from the legends had appeared in the world.


    “Old ancestor is right. The disciple epted by Sword Saint Elder Ling Juekong from the Miluo Pce must have the blood of the Celestial Phoenix n flowing in her body!”


    Yu Lingkong’s eyes shone brilliantly. He guessed something.


    “The Celestial Phoenix Dao, a legendary Reaching Heaven Grand Dao...”


    Ji Xingyao was also rmed, and many rumors shed to her mind.


    The celestial phoenix was already a legend-like creature in ancient times. Born from heaven and earth, it was as mysterious as it was terrifying.


    The Celestial Phoenix Dao was even more rare and unique, and it was almost unheard of. The reason for that was very simple: only cultivators from the bloodline of the celestial phoenix couldprehend this grand dao!


    But descendants of the celestial phoenix were incredibly rare whether it was in ancient times or the present world!


    Therefore, this grand dao was also very illusive and hadn’t appeared in the world in countless years.


    Unexpectedly, it appeared today!


    The whole audience was wide-eyed and speechless with amazement. Many also showed crazed looks in their eyes.


    The celestial phoenix danced in the sky, and its clear cry shook the nine heavens. Let alone them, even the old monsters in the world likely had never seen such visions in their lifetime.


    However, it was at that moment that Luo Jia got up. Her elegant figure was bathed in a hazy glow that added to her mysteriousness and etherealness.


    “Congrattions, Miss Luo Ji!” Yu Lingkong was the first to break the silence, congratting her with a warm smile and gazing at her with undisguised admiration.


    “Fellow cultivator, you have awakened the power of your bloodline in your body. From now on, your cultivation will improve by leaps and bounds, and the great dao will be within reach,” Ji Xingyao said in a clear voice.


    “I don’t deserve such praise.” Luo Jia was as gentle and tranquil as before, like an ethereal orchid in an empty valley.


    Many cultivators couldn’t help but marvel at the spectacr scenes. They never thought that three kinds of Reaching Heaven Grand Dao would appear one after another in the Dao Lantern Festival.


    Each one was incredibly rare and amazing!


    This had never happened in the previous Dao Lantern Festival. If it spread to the outside world, it would be bound to cause an uproar.


    ……


    There was a long silence. Everyone was upied with their own thoughts, digesting all the earth-shaking things that had happened.


    But a sneer broke this silent atmosphere, “Hey, Demon God Lin is the only one left again. Let’s see how long he will continue to y tricks!”


    Everyone didn’t need to look to know that it was Sha Liuchan who spoke.


    Sure enough, Sha Liuchan folded his arms across his chest and fixed his eyes on Lin Xun with a cold smile on his lips.


    While Sha Liuchan watched Lin Xun with mocking eyes, everyone was very puzzled. Lin Xun’s chosen stone stele was an old and mottled stele on the outermost edge of the forest, so he should haveprehended the grand dao power imbued within it already given hisprehension.


    “Maybe that stele is special, and the grand dao it contains conflicts with Demon God Lin’s cultivation path, so he is having trouble grasping it,” someone analyzed.


    Many people nodded. That could be true, and it was not the first time it happened.


    Even cultivators with extraordinary talents and superbprehension might end up with nothing if the path that they seek conflicted with a certain grand dao power.


    “What do you mean by his path goes against the grand dao? He is not stupid, how would he choose to study a stone stele that conflicts with his own path?” Sha Liuchan snorted coldly, “In my opinion, the kid must be pretending to trick us again. He has such a bad heart and is always thinking of digging pits for people to fall into. But this time I won’t be fooled again!”


    Everyone was at a loss for words.


    Although Zhongli Wuji and Qing Lian’er hadn’t said a word, they agreed with Sha Liucha’s analysis. Lin Xun was too cunning. The more abnormal his behavior, the higher the chance of him scheming something!


    “You are thinking too highly of yourself. Do you think Lin Xun will waste his energy to scheme against you, someone he already defeated earlier, and ignore the grand dao power in the stone stele?” Yue Jianming said coldly.


    “Do you want to die!?” Sha Liuchan’s face darkened.


    He found Yue Jianming more and more irritating. “Just you wait, this time not only Demon God Lin is going to die, but you will also be buried with him!”


    Yue Jianming chuckled and didn’t even bother with him anymore.


    Sha Liuchan looked at him with disdain. He was very sure that if it wasn’t for Lin Xun’s help, Yue Jianming would have been eliminated as early as the Sinking Sea round and would not even have had the chance to take the fifth test.


    Perhaps, because of this, he willingly became Lin Xun’sckey.


    How despicable!


    With this thought, Sha Liuchan’s anger eased.


    At that moment, Zhongli Wuji chuckled out loud. “During the Spirit Lantern Illumination, Demon God Lin got nothing in the end. Will he repeat the same mistake this time?”


    Everyone’s expression changed strangely, but no one said anything. It was understandable. Demon God Lin was too abnormal. Anyone who thought he was not good enough was always pped in the face in the end.


    Seeing everyone ignore him, Zhongli Wuji’s face froze awkwardly before he said hesitantly, “It seems that you all have other opinions, but in my view, he is pouring water into a sieve again.”


    Before his voice faded, a cryptic wave of energy swept over Lin Xun’s body like a ck hole had erupted out of nowhere.


    Instantly, everyone’s expression changed.


    While Zhongli Wuji was struck dumb. The speed of the p was like that of a tornado. It came too unexpectedly!
