The Zi Mansion Holy Land, Earth Demon Holy Sect, Dragon Elephant Holy Sect, and Jade Pure Holy Land were the overlords within the four nearby Daozhou.
Su Han stood on the Purple Jade warship, taking in the various Sages, Saint Heirs, and Holy Maidens.
In terms of cultivation realm, the Zi Mansion Holy Son was the highest at the Supre Realm Seventh Level. He was followed by the Vermilion Holy Maiden at the Supre Realm Sixth Layer, while the Dragon Elephant Saint Heir and Jade Pure Holy Maiden were both at the Supre Realm Fifth Layer.
However, as monstrously talented prodigies, battling above one’s realm was a basic skill, so their strength could not be judged by cultivation level alone. If these four were to truly clash, the outco was far from certain.
Besides these four great hegemons, only the contingent from Yun Province had yet to arrive.
Speak of the devil. A chilling wind suddenly swept across the land, accompanied by a mournful wailing that sent shivers down the spine.
WOO WOO!
A one-hundred-ter-tall skull flew out of the void, landing north of Peach Blossom Pool.
This skull was ghastly white and actually alive. The wailing sounds emanated from its mouth, while two clusters of green ghost fire burned in its eye sockets.
However, the crowd’s attention was more focused on the newcors from the Five Ghosts Demon Cult.
A short, black-robed, skeletal old man stood atop the skull. When he grinned, it sent a chill down the spine, making him look like a zombie that had just crawled from its coffin.
This was the Black Skull Demon Saint, an elder of the Five Ghosts Demon Cult. He was powerful, but his very presence inspired fear.
Behind the Black Skull Demon Saint stood the one hundred people from Yun Province. Ninety of them were from the Five Ghosts Demon Cult, with the remaining ten spots distributed among other forces.
Su Han’s gaze fell on the Five Ghosts Saint Heir. He was a fair-skinned young man with a radiant smile, appearing to be eighteen or nineteen years old. Cheerful and confident, he was a stark contrast to the Black Skull Demon Saint beside him.
But Su Han would not be fooled by the Five Ghosts Saint Heir’s appearance. He had heard from Li Mingliang that this Saint Heir had two faces. Publicly, he was sunny and confident, seeming harmless. But once in battle, he would reveal a bloodthirsty, fanatical side, as crazed as a demon.
The Five Ghosts Saint Heir’s strength was not to be underestimated; like the Vermilion Holy Maiden, he was also at the Supre Realm Sixth Layer.
This ant that among the Saint Heirs and Holy Maidens, there was one at the Supre Realm Seventh Level, two at the Sixth Layer, and two at the Fifth Layer.
However, the major powers had also dispatched powerful experts at the Supre Realm Eighth and Ninth Layers. Although these individuals did not hold the lofty status of a Saint Heir or Holy Maiden, their strength was formidable and could not be overlooked.
With the five major powers gathered, everyone was rubbing their hands together, brimming with confidence and eager to enter the Peach Blossom Paradise to compete for its opportunities and fortunes.
"Fire Crow Sect Master, my main rival is the Five Ghosts Saint Heir. Your Spiritual Fire has a restraining effect on him, so pay close attention to him," the Zi Mansion Holy Son suddenly reminded Su Han via Divine Sense.
Su Han was slightly startled and surprised. Ji State and Yun Province didn’t share a border. He had initially thought the Zi Mansion Holy Son’s greatest rival would be the Vermilion Holy Maiden, never expecting it to be the Five Ghosts Saint Heir.
Although Su Han didn’t understand the reason, it was not his place to ask. He simply nodded slightly to show he understood.
He was not afraid, however. He already possessed the strength of the Supre Realm Fifth Layer, and if he donned the Ghostly Face Mask, he could wield the power of the Supre Realm Seventh Level. Combined with his Great Accomplished Holy Body and nurous other techniques, he was confident he could face any Saint Heir or Holy Maiden. Even taking on two at once was not out of the question.
"Hmm?"
Sensing sothing, Su Han turned his head and saw that the Five Ghosts Saint Heir was also looking his way.
That’s right, the Five Ghosts Saint Heir was looking over, but not at the Zi Mansion Holy Son. He was looking at Su Han himself.
This puzzled Su Han. He was currently disguised as the Fire Crow Sect Master using his Thousand Changes and Transformations; not even a Sage could see through the disguise, let alone the Five Ghosts Saint Heir. Still, being targeted by the Five Ghosts Saint Heir was not a good sign, and Su Han’s brow furrowed slightly.
WHOOSH!
At that mont, the tranquil Peach Blossom Pool suddenly stirred with ripples. The ripples grew more and more violent until a column of water shot into the sky, reaching for the clouds.
"Everyone, get ready! The entrance is about to appear!" the Purple Jade Sage announced, reminding Su Han and the others.
Instantly, everyone focused their Heart Spirits, their gazes following the column of water toward the sky.
Once the column reached its peak, it dispersed in all directions like a giant, beautiful fountain. A wave of spatial fluctuations erged at the column’s apex, growing in intensity until a blurry image gradually appeared before the crowd.
Verdant mountains rose one after another, covered in lush vegetation and blooming flowers, with Spiritual Energy so thick it ford a mist. It looked like a paradise on earth, a mortal fairyland.
"Look! There’s a Lingzhi as big as a millstone over there! By the looks of it, it’s at least a thousand years old!" soone cried out in astonishnt. In the blurry image, they had spotted a gigantic, fiery-red Lingzhi. Even if that Lingzhi wasn’t a Holy dicine, it was at least a Supre Grade Dao dicine. Obtaining it would an a lifeti of wealth.
"I saw a dragonfly! Heavens, it’s bigger than a person! Is that a demonic beast living in the Peach Blossom Paradise? That’s terrifying!"
Another person saw a dragonfly that was three to four ters long. Even through the veil of space and ti, its power and ferocity were palpable.
The Peach Blossom Paradise was a space naturally ford by heaven and earth, equivalent to a small world. It not only had its own internal space but could also nurture life. In essence, its nature was of a higher level than the Great Emperor’s Void Realm.
The image gradually beca clearer, revealing more and more treasures. This stirred up a restless desire in everyone to storm in and claim every single precious item for themselves.
As ti passed, the spatial fluctuations slowly ceased, finally forming a stable spaceti passage.
SWISH!
Sensing sothing, Su Han took the Peach Blossom token from his Bronze Ring. The token was now glowing brilliantly, emitting a pink spiritual light that spread out and enveloped him completely.
It wasn’t just Su Han; everyone holding a Peach Blossom token was now shrouded in the sa pink spiritual light, making them look like a field of blooming peach blossoms, a breathtakingly beautiful sight.
"Rember, the Peach Blossom Paradise will only be open for one month. If you exceed the ti limit and fail to return, you will be trapped inside forever!" the Purple Jade Sage spoke gravely, reminding everyone.
With their own safety at stake, no one dared to be careless, and they all committed his words to mory.
"We go first!" Yuanxiang Sage bood, his voice like thunder.
The Dragon Elephant Saint Heir imdiately soared into the air, leading the contingent from Han State. They were the first to fly toward the spaceti passage, and their figures quickly vanished as they entered the Peach Blossom Paradise.
No one wanted to be left behind. Soon, the other groups also took to the air, flying toward the passage.
"Follow this Saint Heir into the Paradise!" the Zi Mansion Holy Son declared with a wave of his hand, leading Su Han and the others toward the spaceti passage.
Soon, all the groups had successfully entered the Peach Blossom Paradise, leaving only the five Sages to stand guard.
A battle between dragons and tigers had thus begun
