Chapter 690: Chapter 640: Pei Xuanjing Gets Straight to the Point, All the Heroes Are Quiet


    For the possibility of their ancestor’s homnd Spiritual Mechanisms reviving, allowing them who had been away toe back, top powers like Xuantian Sect had long been prepared. Or it could be said that they had begun preparations from the moment they left.


    As the homnd revives, and the prime time for cultivationes again, numerous powerful beings will appear. Many prodigies will rise to the asion, leading the era and rising to power.


    But even with mental preparation, upon seeing Pei Xuanjing’s rise to power, the Master of Mystiq Sky still felt a profound sense of surreal disbelief.


    Despite what he believed or the reality he perceived, the situation had reached this point. Pei Xuanjing had already grown up, and already stood among the strongest in the Heavens and Earth. Nobody could suppress him without being ready to pay a heavy price.


    However, in such a prosperous era, nobody is willing to pave the way for others through their own sacrifice. Therefore, Pei Xua$njing’s position has be unshakeable and nobody could obstruct him.


    This feeling of being beyond control was very frustrating for the Master of Mystiq Sky. But being unable to change it, he could only hope that Pei would not be hard-headed and uncooperative. Hopefully, they could keep him stable and recruit him into their existing camp, turning him from a potential troublemaker into a maintainer.


    Unfortunately, before the Master of Mystiq Sky could make a move on this thought, Pei Xuanjing’s next words made him think his idea was somewhat ridiculous.


    “Friends!”


    Pei Xuanjing’s voice echoed throughout the pce. Although not loud, it clearly reached everyone’s ears.


    All present were cultivators who were always watching Pei Xuanjing keenly, wanting to see what he would do today. Now that Pei Xuanjing had spoken, they naturally turned their attention to him.<div>


    In an instant, the once lively and bustling pce was immediately silent. Not a single sound could be heard, as if the previous noise never existed.


    Face cid in the face of these focused eyes, Pei Xuanjing remained calm in his seat of honour, and slowly began:


    “I’m grateful to all of you taoist friends who have honoured me with your presence to discuss Tao on Shenxiao Mountain today. My heartfelt gratitude to you all,” he began.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    “The honour is ours!”


    “We’re fortunate to have a new friend. Anotherpanion on the Immortal Dao Path. This is a happy asion indeed!”


    …


    The powerful beings each spoke their minds.


    Unless they were mortal enemies, most at the Nine Realms of Spirit were actually somewhat happy whenever another cultivator advanced.


    These Nine Realms of Spirit’s most powerful beings did not harbor hostility towards newer entrants as regr cultivators imagined. After all,panions were hard to find on the solitary Immortal Path. Even if the neer became a future rival, he would still be a taoist friend to discuss the Tao with.


    Along these lines, the views and understanding of these powerful beings were somewhat simr to Pei Xuanjing’s. They all stood at the peak of cultivation, without any guidance for the path forward, and simply pursued the Tao based on their beliefs.


    Thus, the appearance of another powerful being would bring mutual teachings, validation of Taoist skills, and possibly even sentient and profound insight. All of which, would be of great help.


    Pei Xuanjing went on, “In addition to inviting all of you today to discuss Tao and share Daoist wisdom, I have another matter that I would like to discuss with everyone.”


    He paused briefly and continued, “I have noticed that cultivation encourages aggression. Little regard is given to thew. People start fighting when in disagreement, causing massive casualties and destruction. What’s worse, innocent people have been victimized. Therefore, I have been thinking about how to resolve this problem. I believe that it would be appropriate to ce some restraints on the cultivators. Only by reigning in thewlessness of these cultivators can we mitigate the harm caused by them.”


    Pei Xuanjing was forthright about his thoughts. He didn’t sugarcoat anything or beat around the bush. Without any preamble, he articted his viewpoint.


    Silence!


    In the pce, there was an abrupt silence. The mighty beings present didn’t immediately respond and fell silent.


    While they were aware of Pei Xuanjing’s thoughts, nobody expected him to express them outright before the debate.


    Such abruptness caught the powerful individuals off guard, leading to a prolonged silence in the pce.


    Apart from the mightiest beings from various top powers, there were also powerful individuals from first-ss powers and ancient sects, independent practitioners above the Eighth Level of the Spiritual Realm, second-tier sects, and even independent practitioners above the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm.<div>


    Those whose skills were below the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm were simply not qualified to be present. Not because Pei Xuanjing was unwilling, but because they dared not to approach due to powerful beings such as these. Even if Pei Xuanjing didn’t mind, the others might.


    In the presence of so many powerful beings, the area inside the grand hall was filled with immense pressure. Even if they didn’t lift a finger but only released a fraction of their energy, cultivators below the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm would not be able to withstand it.


    Regarding the proposal from Pei Xuanjing, before the strongest beings from various top-tier powers spoke their mind, the rest of them, whether they were in favor or against it, could only suppress their feelings as they just were not qualified to do so.


    “Mr. Wu, do you think they will agree with Master Pei’s idea?” Zhu Houji asked Wu Shijiu via telepathy.<div>


    As the emperor of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, Zhu Houji shouldn’t miss this grand event. However, for his own safety, he only sent a clone apanied by Wu Shijiu and Prince of Xiang, Zhu Yousong. Due to Zhu Yousong’s cultivation not reaching the Sixth Level of the Realm, he could only stay in another hall. Only he and Wu Shijiu were present here.


    “Your Majesty, it’s not up to us to decide this. Or, our attitude doesn’t matter at all. Only these most powerful beings can decide.” Wu Shijiu shook his head slightly as he responded solemnly, unlike his usual rxed demeanor.
