The elder in white tried to snatch Ying Luozha’s and Xu Yunsheng’s magic items. The two of them were naturally unwilling to let him do so. They tried to retrieve the magic item hurriedly.
As they tried to command their magic items, they realized that the magic items were no longer listening to them. They were about to get snatched away.
Ying Luozha snorted, "We won the young one, but provoked the older one. Now that the older one failed to settle us, the eldest one is here?"
His words were like slaps to the face of Meng Bei and Du Ting. They felt extremely shameful.
The elder in white said, "It’s your fortune to meet me. Don’t be a sore loser."
"How can I be?" Ying Luozha retorted, "But you are bullying me with your cultivation. Do you think only the Samsara Sect has Nascent Soul Stage cultivators?"
"I’m not like your disciples who are so thick-skinned. I don’t need an elder to stand up for me. When I reach the Nascent Soul Stage, I will find you myself and take revenge for the humiliation today!"
The elder in white scanned him, "You have just lost one item but you are so calculative, narrow-minded and enraged. With your state of mind, you can’t even form the Aurous Core, what more the Nascent Soul. It’s a pity that the Celestial Sect of Wonders has disciples like you."
He looked at Ying Luozha from the corner of his eyes, "It’s easy for me to kill you. But there’s no need for me to do so."
"I shall keep your magic items. Let this be a lesson to the both of you. You must be able to withstand failure. The path of cultivation is not smooth. I have given the both of you a lesson today."
"Who are you giving a lesson to?"
A voice rang from the mountains. The elder in white was shocked. In front of him, void space broke open and a scholarly man in purple robe appeared. He was calm, but he had an aura that left one petrified.
The scholarly man looked at the elder in white and said, "Cultivating is similar to being a person. Understanding reason, knowing what is right and wrong, doing things with magnanimity. One can be humble, but not humiliated."
As he said, the scholarly man extended his hand and broke the spell that captured the green wooden staff and colored light shield. Both items, along with the Nine-Toothed Soul-Crushing Heavenly disc, landed in the hands of the scholarly man.
Xu Yunsheng and Ying Luozha saw this scholarly man and bowed towards him, "Greetings, Master."
Zhu Yi nodded his head, "Stand at one side and observe."
Before he finished speaking, Zhu Yi lifted his hand. It was also the Eight Spells of the Heavens and Earth that he exhibited. He chose the Spell of Control just like Xu Yunsheng did before.
Wherever his man went, the surrounding space around the elder in white was locked.
The expression of the elder in white changed, "I gave some pointers to the juniors with regards to their sparring. But you want to lay a move on me now?"
"Your logic is skewed. If you give them pointers, they will only be led astray." Zhu Yi followed with the exhibition of the Spell of Geography. He seemed to convert the Heavens and Earth into a chessboard, causing the elder in white to be trapped within.
It was the same Eight Spells of the Heavens and Earth, but it looked different when Zhu Yi summoned it.
Although the elder in white was also in the Nascent Soul Stage, Zhu Yi did not use the Way of the Facile Blade, Great Boundaries of the Celestial Light and Darkness Mandala or the Essay of the Sages, which were all powerful abhijnas. He used the foundational abhijna of the Celestial Sect of Wonders, the Eight Spells of the Heavens and Earth to counter the elder in white.
While it looked shallow, it was a rare abhijna. Especially since it was exhibited by Zhu Yi, it reflected a miraculous feeling.
There was no sense of rigidity. On the other hand, it was very refreshing and referred to the foundation of the way of the Heavens and Earth.
The elder in white was forced back by Zhu Yi and had no choice but to reveal his own magic item. It was a bright, silver disc.
As the silver disc was unleashed, void space shook. As the disc spun, it threatened to crush the surrounding space.
"Since you took my disciples’ magic items, I shall take yours too." Zhu Yi did not even look at him and extended his palm. The countless ropes created by the Spell of Geography gathered in his palm.
There seemed to be no change in Zhu Yi’s palm. It just seemed smooth and was shining with a dim light.
In the next moment, he connected all five fingers of his and grabbed hold onto the silver disc. No matter how much the elder in white tried to summon the disc, the disc would not return.
The Nascent Soul Stage magic item was repressed by Zhu Yi and could not move.
The expression of the elder changed, "You…"
Zhu Yi looked at him, "What, you can’t take this?"
"Who is the one who was acting so ridiculous and tried to mislead others? Since you can’t tolerate it yourself, don’t be so pious. If you don’t like something, then don’t force it upon others."
The elder in white snorted furiously and a light figure flashed above his head. A huge person appeared behind him.
The person was ten foot tall and wore a white robe. The four, huge limbs of this person held prayer beads, water jug, scepter and bow. This person was the Cosmic Form of the elder in white.
He could tolerate other things, but as his magic item was taken away, this Nascent Soul Stage Grandmaster was unable to bear anymore. He revealed his Cosmic Form.
Zhu Yi’s expression did not change and he looked at the Cosmic Form of the elder in white.
His gaze seemed to have dampened the spirits of the elder in white.
For a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator in the Advanced Stage, his state of mind should be quite strong. But this elder felt a chill down his spine and a frightened feeling rose in his mind.
When Zhu Yi looked at him previously, he felt as if Zhu Yi was a tiger while he was a rat.
It was as if that if Zhu Yi just waved his hand, he would be able to kill him easily. Zhu Yi could easily destroy his Cosmic Form.
This look seemed to have woken the elder in white up. It was as if it was an instinctive action. He retracted his Cosmic Form that he just revealed quickly. He was afraid that if he was slower, there would be no more opportunity for him to do so.
The elder in white looked at Zhu Yi with a bitter look and analyzed what he wore, "Are you the second disciple of the leader of the Celestial Sect of Wonders, Zhu Yi?"
Zhu Yi said, "The Celestial Sect of Wonders is celebrating a joyous occasion. Your sect has been invited over as guests. Regarding this matter, I shall not pursue further. But you need to know your limits too. With regards to guests with ill-intentions, our sect will not hesitate to throw them out."
The way he talked was very unkind. The elder in white suppressed his anger, but wanted to retaliate.
While Zhu Yi did not cultivate as long as him, he was very powerful. Even when he was in the Advanced Stage of the Aurous Core Stage, he could kill a cultivator in the Advanced Stage of the Nascent Soul Stage.
Now that he was in the Intermediate Stage of the Nascent Soul Stage, the elder in white did not dare to imagine how powerful he was.
"Heavenly Cloud Holy Man, what has happened today is really…" The elder in white thought of it in his heart and laughed bitterly, while shaking his head.
Since the Samsara Sect was invited over by the Celestial Sect of Wonders, there couldn’t only be a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator leading the group.
On Mount Yujing, Lin Feng’s gaze transcended void space and he looked at a young man in white.
He did not hide his gaze and the young man in white greeted Lin Feng as he noticed his gaze, "Shen Qifeng from the Samsara Sect is honored to meet Master Lin."
Lin Feng looked at Shen Qifeng, "Such a young age but you have already formed the Immortal Soul. No wonder the Path of the Heaven-Born is the top among the Six Paths of the Samsara Sect."
Shen Qifeng, who was the Heavenly Clouds Holy Man, smiled at Lin Feng, "It’s all thanks to my elders and the sect for nurturing me."
Lin Feng scanned around him and realized the vibration of mana of Shen Qifeng. He knew that he was an important figure in the Path of the Heaven-Born. His status in the Path of the Heaven-Born was similar to Lin Daohan, Yan Mingyue, Pang Jie and Shi Tianyi in the Great Void Sect.
He was a talent to take up the reins in the future. He should be the Immediate Disciple of the leader of the Path of the Heaven-Born.
The leader of the Path of the Heaven-Born did not come. But Shen Qifeng’s presence still showed some face to the Celestial Sect of Wonders.
Shen Qifeng looked down on the elder in white and Zhu Yi within Mount Kunlun and said, "A minor conflict has cropped up between the juniors. Please forgive them."
Lin Feng answered, "Let them settle it themselves."
He was very protective. This meant that if his disciples provoked the disciples of other sects and caused the elders to lay a move, he would be there to support his own disciples.
If his own disciples were beaten by others and their skills were indeed inferior, he would not bother. His own disciples could only train themselves to better and avenge themselves in the future.
The Path of the Heaven-Born was also very protective of their disciples. But Shen Qifeng could only nod his head and acknowledge now, "Your words are right."
Lin Feng retracted his gaze and Shen Qifeng creased his brows slightly. But he soon made himself comfortable and exited void space, meeting up with Zhu Yi and the rest.
With regards to the elder in white, Shen Qifeng did not say anything. But as his vision swept across Meng Bei and his disciples, this left Meng Bei fearful. The incident was started by him. He was the one who caused all the trouble.
Without bothering about the elder in white and the rest, Shen Qifeng smiled and greeted Zhu Yi. He did not mention anything about the magic item that Zhu Yi snatched from the elder in white.
Since Zhu Yi was here, it was not necessary for Xu Yunsheng and Ying Luozha to be around anymore. He followed Shen Qifeng and the rest up Yun Peak personally.
During the past three years, Yun Peak and the Mirror Lake underwent many changes. Along with the Cloud Mirror City, they had been refurbished and many facilities were added. They became more and more complete.
As they walked between the mountains beside the Mirror Lake, the cultivators from the Samsara Sect could clearly feel the demonic aura around. There were many demons around who were in the Demon Lord realm. They were in the peak of the Demon Lord realm and were only one step away from being Demonic Saints.
Shen Qifeng looked at Zhu Yi and saw that he looked as calm as usual.
They came to the lakeside of the Mirror Lake. A huge black figure suddenly rose from the Mirror Lake and floated on the water surface. Its size was very huge, just like a small island. It was huge whale in the Demon Lord realm. It was the Northern Sea Whale King.
Shen Qifeng looked at the Northern Sea Whale King and started to shift his vision away. He followed Zhu Yi up Yun Peak and proceeded to their temporary residence.
On Mount Yujing, Lin Feng’s gaze continued to follow Shen Qifeng, but he did not allow Shen Qifeng to discover him this time.
Shen Qifeng creased his brows and his thoughtful look was noticed by Lin Feng. Lin Feng laughed, "Interesting, let me see what you are going to do."
