Chapter 102: Qingyun Sect at the Center of the Universe
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Unknown cultivation level? Isn’t this number one too strange?” The Night Soul Lord frowned.
He felt complicated and miserable. As if there was something stuck in his heart.
He was already unconvinced that Night Whisper was ranked second.
Thus, he guessed that the cultivation realm of the first place was probably close to Night Whisper. Perhaps he was only slightly ahead in power level and potential and had barely won against Night Whisper.
This way, he would feel better.
In the end, Li Yu’s cultivation level was unknown?
The part that was covered was the most intriguing.
The unknown was the most terrifying.
The phenomenon’s appearance and the abnormality of the rewards seemed to imply that this ‘unknown’ was hiding a shocking secret.
“Who is this Li Yu?” The Night Soul Lord was curious.
Night Whisper was similarly curious. Her alluring brows knit together while she looked at the Heavenly Dao Rankings with a complicated expression.
The Qingyun Sect. Li Yu.

Night Whisper muttered in her mind.
Although she was also filled with questions and confusion about Li Yu’s cultivation and power level, she was more concerned about the gap separating them.
She was not afraid of losing the ranking, nor did she care.
However, she didn’t even know how she had lost and how much the other party was ahead. This troubled her, and it was something she could not get over.
Ihave to find out what this unknown represents.
Night Whisper pondered while her pupils constricted slightly, and a competitive spirit she’d never felt before arose.
“This first place is indeed extraordinary. For the Heavenly Dao Rankings to produce such an auspicious phenomenon for him, this child is definitely extraordinary. This unknown cultivation level means that he’s so special that it exceeded our understanding, Even the Heavenly Dao Rankings are stumped
to the point of not knowing how to evaluate his cultivation. They don’t even know what to reward him with, and… Forget it. I can’t make up this story anymore…”
“Could this be the special treatment given to the first on the Heavenly Dao Rankings? Apart from the grand phenomenon, it also conceals your cultivation level and rewards?”
“But what’s the point of that? The cultivation level and rewards of the previous ranks have already been announced. What’s the point of concealing his?”
“Perhaps it’s because his cultivation is too high, and the Heavenly Dao Rankings are afraid of demoralizing the rest of the prodigies, so they directly named it the unknown!”
“Night Whisper is already in the early stage of the Mahayana Realm. No matter how strong this Li Yu is, could he have already become an immortal?”
“L guess it’s possible!”
“Even so, immortals can be classified into different realms!”
“Who cares? The Heavenly Dao has its own will. We can’t understand the world of experts!”
“Has no one noticed that the first and last place have the same names?”2
Some people also shifted their gaze and checked the person at the bottom of the ranking.
The last was Li Yu, and the first was also Li Yu.
It might be fate after all.
Inside the Clear Void Holy Land, Perfected Taiqing and the elders were equally shocked.
“It’s really Li Yu!”
“This child is actually stronger than Night Whisper!”
“Perhaps he has the upper hand in terms of potential, and their cultivation levels are similar!”
“But why is his cultivation unknown? This is too strange! And his rewards are a secret! What’s going on?”
At this moment, no one could avoid speaking about the word ‘unknown.’
This word would probably be stuck in their minds for a long time.
Li Yu is indeed extraordinary! Duan Tianming was shocked.
He knew that Li Yu was powerful, and he had even expected Li Yu to clinch first place after announcing the second place.
However, as the dust settled, Duan Tianming was still in deep shock after seeing the grand phenomenon in the sky, Li Yu’s unknown cultivation level, and the secret rewards.
Li Yu’s power level had already surpassed his imagination.
He had witnessed and experienced that sword slash that day with his own eyes.
That ordinary sword seemed to contain the power of law, so powerful that it seemed capable of severing everything.
At that time, he was not sure if he was not knowledgeable enough to know what sword technique Li Yu had used.
Now, it seemed to confirm his first impression. That sword strike contained the laws of the Great Dao.
Li Yu could no longer be described as a prodigy. He could no longer be measured using usual knowledge.
That was probably the reason why his cultivation level was unknown!
It’s good that Li Qingyun has already let go of the hatred from the past. Otherwise, if my Clear Void Holy Land had such a terrifying enemy, we’re goners! Duan Tianming felt a lingering fear.

‘As Li Yu ascended to the top of the rankings, besides surprising the members of the various Holy Lands, they heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this last person wasn’t a member of the fiend sects.
Although the Seven Holy Lands had more or less lost their faces today, they were fortunate to retain the fig leaf of orthodox sects.
At the moment, the Kings of the Netherworld Cult recovered from their shock and couldn’t help but discuss it again.
“although I don’t know why the Heavenly Dao Rankings would conceal this kid’s cultivation and rewards. Based on the various evidence, this kid is surely out of this world. Even an unprecedented genius like Night Whisper could only be ranked second, so this obviously shows how terrifying Li Yu is!”
“Sigh, who would have thought that the top would still be seized by the orthodox sects? In that case, the prodigy rankings would barely be 50-50!”
“Eh? Don’t say that. Perhaps the Qingyun Sect is also a sect in our demonic path! Plus, even if their sect is an orthodox sect, Li Yu might not always be part of one!”
“That’s right, that’s right. Who said Li Yu can’t become a member of our Netherworld Cult? I happen to have a daughter…”
1
“Hold on. I have not just a daughter, but I also have a granddaughter who’s as beautiful as a fairy. Her beauty would overthrow a kingdom…”
“How did you know Li Yu would be interested in your daughters? What if…”

The Endless Sea, Thousand Dragon Island.
The appearance of Night Whisper and Li Yu shocked Long Zhi for a long time, especially Li Yu.
That unknown cultivation almost caused hundreds of millions of brain cells to die.
“I never thought that the human race would have a young talent in the Mahayana Realm. Although I don’t know what Li Yu’s cultivation level is, he must be at least in the early stage of the Mahayana Realm!” Long Zhi said in a deep voice.
Previously, he thought that the highest among the human elites was only in the Tribulation realm. He did not expect two serious fellows to appear.
It seemed that the fate of the human race was not over yet.
“That’s right. Looks like there are still some powerful fellows in the human race. However, our demon race is bound to be stronger in this generation!” A voice cut from ice sounded.
At the same time, a tall and graceful figure appeared out of thin air beside Long Zhi. It was the third princess of the Azure Dragon Clan, Long Yue.
“Third Sister, you’re out of seclusion!” Long Zhi looked at Long Yue in surprise. He could sense the difference in her aura and could not help smiling in excitement. “Third Sister, you’ve also entered the Mahayana Realm!”
“Yes!” Long Yue smiled calmly.
“Congratulations, Third Sister. I think our Azure Dragon Clan will shine in the Sons of Heaven Rankings later!” Long Zhi sounded thrilled.
“Don’t get ahead of yourself for the time being!” Another deep voice sounded, and a handsome and majestic man in armor appeared in the sky.
“Big Brother, you’re back! How was your trip?” Long Zhi cupped his hands.
This man was none other than the top prodigy of the Azure Dragon Race’s current generation—Long Ao. He was at the middle stage of the Mahayana Realm and had fused with a dragon pearl and two azure dragon bones.
His strength was definitely enough to thrash all the elites of the human race.
In Long Zhi’s opinion, his older brother was the number one prodigy in the world, and the top of the Demon Sons of Heaven Rankings would belong to Long Ao.
“It’s going smoothly. Congratulations on entering the Mahayana Realm, Sister. The Demon ranking is about to begin. Father called us over,” replied Long Ao.
“alright!” Long Zhi and Long Yue flew up together and followed Long Ao to the Dragon Palace.
“Big Brother, there should be an additional reward for the first place on the demon rankings. Also, this auspicious scene will surely gather in the sky of our Thousand Dragon Island too!”
“Thope so, but don’t celebrate too early. The current Young Master of the Nine-Headed Lion Race—Xin Ba—and the Golden Feather Race’s current prodigy, Zha Zha Hui. Their level isn’t inferior to mine, so the competition for the rankings today will probably be intense! I can’t say for sure who will win the
top spot!” Long Ao reminded Long Zhi.
The current new generation of the various large demon races was loaded with prospects other than the Nine-Headed Lion Race and the Golden Feather Race.
For example, the Eight-Armed Holy Ape Clan, the Phoenix Race, the Nine-Headed Snake Clan, and the Demon Fox Clan had produced monstrous geniuses.
There might even be hidden ancient remnant beasts, so Long Ao did not dare to guarantee that he could claim the throne of the demon race’s top prodigy.
In the Great Xia Dynasty, Li Yu’s matter made the entire Great Xia Dynasty celebrate.
Everyone in the Great Xia Dynasty, who had already experienced the repeated hammering from the Hidden Dragon Rankings, the 3000 Physique Rankings, and the Divine Weapon Rankings, was not surprised by Li Yu topping the rankings again. Instead, they found it routine.
They shared a similar thought. “Foolish foreigners, you’re not worthy of knowing our Li Yu’s true power! You know nothing about the Heavenly Dao Rankings’ favoritism towards Li Yu! He had received additional rewards all the time!”

At the moment, the disciples in the Qingyun Sect were bursting with jubilation for a long while.
After today, the Qingyun Sect would definitely make a name in the world. In the future, it might really surpass those Holy Lands.
However, Li Qingyun, Tang Chi, Ye Qiu, Ji Qinglan, Gu Yugi, Ji Wanjie, and Su Mu stared at Li Yu, who was bathed in the golden light.
The curiosity brimming in their eyes was about to overflow.
‘They were eager to know what rewards the Heavenly Dao Rankings had given him this time.
At that moment, the Blood Spirit Monarch cursed in his mind.
Are the Heavenly Dao Rankings intentionally targeting me? Why would they hide Li Yu’s cultivation?
The Blood Spirit Monarch hoped to see what realm Li Yu was in to understand what cultivation level he needed to reach to defeat him.
In the end, nothing came out of the Heavenly Dao Rankings. He felt he was getting a heart attack.
“In any case, it looks like Li Yu is at least in the early stage of the Mahayana Realm, or even higher. This kid is just ridiculous. I think I have to at least cultivate to the peak of the Mahayana Realm!” The Blood Spirit Monarch suddenly felt despair.
On this trip to the Lingtian Mystic Realm, I must try my best to break through to the peak of the Mahayana Realm!
After a moment, the golden light that enveloped Li Yu slowly vanished.
However, Li Yu’s body remained radiant, and his elegance became even more predominant.
The female disciples, Tang Ling’er and Meng Xuegj’s eyes began to sparkle.
However, no one read too much into it. They thought that the Heavenly Dao Rankings had improved Li Yu’s aptitude to become even more powerful.
They were more interested in the additional reward.
“Senior Brother, can you shed some light?” Tang Chi asked the question that everyone wanted to know with a grin.
“It’s not convenient!” Li Yu waved his hand.
What am I supposed to say? That the Heavenly Dao Rankings multiplied my charisma and elegance by ten times?
1
Li Yu felt a headache coming up.
Is my body really so overpowered that even the Heavenly Dao Rankings don’t know what to upgrade?
And they only improve such superficial and useless stuff!
Luckily the Heavenly Dao Rankings made the rewards a secret. Otherwise, it’s too embarrassing.
The others improved their aptitude, comprehension, soul, and luck. While my charm and elegance improved.
Iwas one step away from a public execution!
“Sigh…” Tang Chi sighed helplessly. He probably could not sleep tonight.
Seeing that Li Yu did not want to speak, everyone naturally kept quiet.
However, Li Qingyun could not help it. He immediately pulled Li Yu aside into the main hall.
“Yu’er, tell me, what kind of reward did you obtain this time?”
“The immortal spring!”
“Immortal spring?” Li Qingyun’s eyes widened, and his face was filled with surprise. “Hahaha, as expected of my son. This Heavenly Dao reward is as crazy as you!”
Although Li Qingyun had never seen an actual immortal spring, he had some knowledge of it.
He had heard in the past that it was spring water that only existed in the Immortal Domain, and it contained dense immortal energy.
The immortal energy contained in a teacup of the spring was equivalent to the benefits of refining and absorbing the spirit energy from a million spirit stones for a cultivator.
The immortal energy and spirit energy were not on the same level.
It was like using ten thousand kilograms of cotton and ten thousand kilograms of stones dropping on the water surface. The waves produced were definitely not the same.
Furthermore, if there was enough immortal spring water for one to cultivate in it for a long time. One could even develop an immortal body and Dao fetus and become a powerful existence comparable to an immortal.
Hence, the immortal spring water was more valuable than the Ancient Dao Fortune Tree.
“How much immortal spring water did the Heavenly Dao Rankings reward you? A pot or a pool?” Li Qingyun asked Li Yu with a nervous expression.
It would be insane to obtain a pool of immortal spring water.
“A lake!” Li Yu articulated.
“Only a pot”? Sigh, but that’s fine. This pot is good enough!” Li Qingyun said with slight disappointment.
Li Yu smiled and said, “It’s not a teapot. It’s a reservoir kind of lake. My reward is the source of the immortal spring water, an endless supply!”
1
Li Yu’s words simply caused Li Qingyun’s face to bloom with laughter. That was an endless supply of immortal spring water.
This Heavenly Dao is practically closer to my son than his own father. This additional reward is simply earth-shattering.
Qingyun Sect was going to take off this time. With the Ancient Dao Luck Tree and the immortal spring lake, even a pig could become an immortal if it entered the Qingyun Sect.
“The Heavenly Dao Rankings are turning our Qingyun Sect into a true immortal’s holy land!” Li Qingyun exclaimed excitedly.
Li Yu smiled. The Heavenly Dao Rankings were not just turning the Qingyun Sect into a holy land. It might as well become the center of the universe!
Maybe a few more additional rewards from the rankings might turn the Qingyun Sect into the Qingyun Immortal Domain!
