Chapter 882: Chapter 777: Gathering of Geniuses (Part 1)
The na of Lake Baikal originates from the ancient Sushen language “Lake Bhai’er,” called “Beihai” during the Han Dynasty. It is located in the southern part of East and West Siberia, in the Russian Alliance, and is the oldest lake in the world, the seventh largest in the world, and crescent-shaped.
A song called “By the Lake Baikal” once beca wildly popular across the entire Jiangnan region, making this beautiful lakeside known to many Chinese people.
For those in the cultivation world, Lake Baikal is almost universally known.
Because every Global Hidden Talent List Tournant is held fifty kiloters away in the Bei Hai Canyon.
Within Bei Hai Canyon, there is a sacred site left by the ancient cultivation realm, extrely mysterious, and never open to the public outside of the Hidden God List Tournant.
One day before the Hidden God List Tournant was set to open, Bei Hai Canyon was crowded with people, numbering nearly ten thousand.
Among them, only a small portion were young talents and older cultivators participating in the Hidden God List Tournant.
Most were cultivators from all over the world—coming to watch the Hidden God List Tournant!
“Why is it that the sacred site in Bei Hai Canyon only opens during the Hidden God List Tournant?”
A sword-using cultivator curiously asked. He was visiting for the first ti and knew very little about the sacred site in Bei Hai Canyon.
“Young man, is this your first ti here?”
An elderly man looked at the young sword-wielding cultivator with a smile.
“Yes, sir, do you know?” asked the young sword-using cultivator.
“Of course I do.”
The elder stroked his beard with an enigmatic expression, “The sacred site in Bei Hai Canyon was passed down from the ancient cultivation realm and was discovered two hundred years ago, becoming the designated site for martial arts tournants for the younger generation. The sacred site has its own space, full of endless mutant beasts…”
“Sir, why does the sacred site only open during the Hidden God List Tournant?” the young sword-using cultivator interrupted, asking the question he most wanted to know.
“Let finish…”
“I say, old man, it’s not a secret. Where does this sense of superiority co from?”
Soone nearby couldn’t stand it anymore, glared at the old man, then revealed the mystery, “As the old man said, the Bei Hai Holy Land is the designated competition ground for the Hidden God List Tournant. This sacred site requires a key to be opened.”
“A key?”
“The so-called Holy Land Key is a massive stele. The stele is an existence surpassing a high-level magic artifact. It contains formations that, when activated, can open the sacred site,” the elderly man who spoke earlier said eagerly.
“How magical…”
The young sword-wielding genius was shocked, finding it all utterly incredible.
“The stele contains many formations, and opening the sacred site is just one of them; there are even more amazing things…” the elder no longer feigned an inscrutable deanor, intending to satisfy the other’s curiosity.
However—
This ti, before the elder could speak the rest of his words, a cry of surprise rang out.
“The Saint Heir and Holy Maiden of the Dark Council have arrived!”
Shush shush shush shush…
With this voice, eyes turned one after another toward the canyon entrance.
Under everyone’s gaze, Doug and Olivia walked into the canyon and quickly headed toward a high platform in the canyon.
The high platform is a gathering place for contestants. At that mont, several contestants had already gathered, mostly older cultivators, with few young contestants. The only eye-catcher was Leng Feng, the direct disciple of Yan!
He is the first and only young contestant from the Huaxia Cultivation World to arrive here, and as of now, he is the most famous and strongest among the young generation of contestants.
However, Doug and Olivia’s fa clearly surpassed Leng Feng, causing a much bigger sensation.
“It’s said that Doug and Olivia were once slapped away by the supre genius Andre of the European Union’s Huang Jin Family, suffering great humiliation. I never thought they would co to participate in the Hidden God List Tournant. Such courage and resilience are remarkable.”
“That’s right, Doug was once hailed as the number one of the young generation. Now not only has he lost that title, but he was also slapped away, equivalent to falling from heaven to hell. In this situation, for him to regain his composure and participate in the competition is indeed not easy!”
“I don’t think so. The so-called number one of the young generation is a thing of the past! Doug now can’t possibly be a match for the six supre geniuses; coming here will only result in further humiliation!”
…
For a mont, the large canyon filled with chatter. Most people thought Doug was brave, while a few considered him foolish.
Faced with the crowd’s discussion, Doug remained calm, seemingly indifferent.
Olivia frowned but said nothing, quietly walking with Doug toward the high platform.
“What’s… what’s that?”
Shortly, before Doug and Olivia ascended the high platform, another exclamation echoed among the crowd.
In an instant, under everyone’s gaze, a large black eagle appeared above the canyon entrance.
The eagle spanned over twenty ters, with a wingspan nearly ten ters, resembling a fighter jet soaring toward them at first glance.
The sudden sight left the cultivators who ca to watch the match in the canyon dumbstruck, as well as the contestants on the platform.
“That’s the famous Demon Feathered Falcon from the ancient cultivation realm, one of the powerful flying mutant beasts, with wings both hard and sharp, hence called Demon Feather. I once read about it in a notebook.”
After a brief silence, an elder from Huaxia spoke up on the platform. Like other cultivators on the platform, he was an early-stage War God but had cultivated for a long ti and recognized the origin of the eagle right away.
“Soone’s on the eagle!”
At the sa ti, people saw figures on the Demon Feathered Falcon and sensed eleven auras, one of which was particularly terrifying, causing heart palpitations.
“The supre genius Zorro of the Ross family has arrived!”
An older contestant from the Arican Cultivator Alliance recognized the visitor.
“I’ve always heard that the Ross family’s ancestral skills are related to mutant beasts. mbers of that family are naturally close to these creatures. In the ancient cultivation realm, a supre strongman family mber even subdued a mythical beast of the sa realm, conquering the world alongside the beast. It seems all of this is true.”
Another older contestant from the Arican Cultivator Alliance spoke up, revealing the Ross family’s mysterious veil.
As his voice fell, the Demon Feathered Falcon soared above the canyon.
Zorro stood proudly in a black robe on the back of the Demon Feathered Falcon. Behind him were nine young n, all Early-Stage War Gods, but only one had an aura slightly similar to his.
That was his servant!
“Master Zorro, those two are the Saint Heir and Holy Maiden of the Dark Council.” A blond youth behind Zorro saw Doug and Olivia and spoke up proactively.
“Why ntion such trash?”
Zorro glanced down at Doug and Olivia and then quickly looked away, scanning the others. He loftily asked, “Has anyone seen the disciple of the Evil Emperor of Huaxia?”
“Master Zorro, the disciple of the Evil Emperor of Huaxia hasn’t been seen, but the disciple of Yan is here!”
On the high stage, an older contestant from the Arican Cultivator Alliance pointed at Leng Feng and said.
“Don’t talk about such useless trash that can be slapped to death with a single hit. I only want to know whether the disciple of the Evil Emperor of Huaxia will participate in this Hidden God List tournant?”
Zorro wasn’t even interested in looking at Leng Feng, and he asked again.
After coming out of seclusion, he had released a harsh declaration that he would kill Ye Fan to avenge the young geniuses of the Arican Cultivation World who had died, and he forbade anyone else from intervening, threatening to kill them all—his dominance was at its peak.
Now, having just arrived here, he imdiately sought Ye Fan, naturally to fulfill his previous harsh vow.
No one responded; the vast canyon was silent. Leng Feng’s face was extrely unsightly, yet he dared not respond.
“Zorro, I didn’t expect you to arrive here so early. You put , the host, to sha.”
At that mont, a voice suddenly echoed through the quiet canyon, resonating throughout the sky and lingering for a long ti.
The voice fell, and a figure appeared!
A young man flew over through Qi Control Flight, and his aura was not weaker than Zorro’s.
Anton!
The supre genius of the Russian Alliance’s Rock Family, one of the six Future Saviors!
Whoosh!
Including Zorro, everyone’s gaze turned to the young man, and they saw that the young man had a pair of azure wings, which were transford from Gang Qi.
“Flying… Flying Martial Technique!”
Seeing that pair of wings transford from Gang Qi, a cultivator exclaid.
The others didn’t speak, but their faces were no less shocked than when Zorro appeared.
This was all because the Flying Martial Technique existed on par with ancient Heavenly Techniques and only existed in the Ancient Cultivation World, having long been lost in the modern cultivation world.
Once a cultivator masters a Flying Martial Technique, they can not only fly with Qi Manipulation before becoming a Mid-stage War God, but after, their speed surpasses opponents of the sa realm.
Zorro was not among those shocked, nor was his servant, whose face was also calm.
Apparently, they were long aware of Anton’s skills in the Flying Martial Technique.
“It’s not that I arrived early, but that you’re just not proactive.”
Zorro stared gloomily at Anton, his body unintentionally exuding war intent, suggesting the montum of a rivalry with Anton.
“It does seem I’m a bit lacking in proactivity.”
Anton maintained his smile and cast his gaze to the west.
Hmm?
At the sa ti, Zorro sensed sothing and looked towards the west.
Below, it took a breath’s ti for the crowd to sense two auras rapidly approaching the canyon, and they all began looking around.
Very quickly, under everyone’s gaze, a golden light shot from the west at an incredible speed.
Gradually, the golden light faded, and two figures appeared in the crowd’s view.
The Golden Lion Andre, accompanied by a servant, appeared above the canyon, surrounded by golden Gang Qi, with the golden feather wings on his back particularly eye-catching!
“Uh…”
Even though the crowd had witnessed the might of Zorro and Anton, they were still taken aback by Andre’s powerful aura, looking at those High-level Flying Magic Artifact golden feather wings with a stunned silence.
Doug and Olivia were not among them, with the forr looking up at Andre with a calm expression and the latter showing intense hatred in her eyes, even clenching her fists!
“Andre, you’re here too.”
In the high sky, Anton smiled and greeted.
“Yes, we finally et.”
Andre looked at Zorro and Anton, finally stopping his gaze on Anton’s azure wings. Though he owned the High-level Flying Magic Artifact golden feather wings, he still harbored a strong desire for the Flying Martial Technique.
“Three more to go.”
Anton smiled, shaking his head, implying that Xu Wudao, Mahayana, and Fa’er had yet to arrive.
“In my opinion, once those three arrive, the competition can start, as everyone else has no real reason to participate!”
Andre spoke again, as if stating a matter of course, without showing the slightest arrogance on his face.
Whoosh!
Hearing Andre’s seemingly calm yet truly conceited words, those contestants participating in this Hidden God List tournant, young and old, all turned pale!
“The more participants, the more fun it can be, like hunting the disciple of the Evil Emperor of Huaxia!”
Zorro sneered, directly treating Ye Fan as prey!
