The Powers at the Helm Apply Pressure! The Heavenly Pass Trial Will Decide the Holy Son!
The Ancestor Fire Spirit of Burning Heaven Peak was surrounded by raging flames, the Ancestor Yue Shen of Mountain Suppressing Peak appeared as a young man, and the Elder Void of Void Breaking Peak had an ethereal figure...
In a short while, six more illusory figures appeared behind the various Peak Masters.
"Um?"
Upon seeing this, Chen Yuan's expression turned extremely grim.
Although none of these seven figures were their true forms, their auras and imposing presence were no less than his.
Chen Yuan hadn't expected this either.
My intention here is merely to designate Chen Changqing as the Eleventh Sequence Holy Son of the Shu Mountain Sacred Land.
They actually managed to draw out the leaders of the Seven Main Peaks.
In the Shu Mountain Sacred Land, the Seven Main Peaks are openly governed by the Seven Peak Masters.
In reality, the real power lies with the seven leaders behind the Seven Main Peaks.
These seven individuals all possessed the same cultivation level as Chen Yuan, being powerful beings at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm.
It is precisely because of this profound foundation.
Only then can Mount Shu be ranked among the Orthodox Ten Great Sacred Lands!
"I didn't expect that just Sequence Holy Son would alarm even you seven old geezers."
After a moment of silence, Chen Yuan spoke softly, his heart filled with bitterness and helplessness.
Despite being the Sect Master of the Mount Shu sect, the Seven Main Peaks generally don't pay much attention to him and each goes their own way.
Besides, the leaders behind these Seven Main Peaks are usually either in seclusion or traveling.
Chen Yuan hadn't expected this either.
The fact that he intended to list Chen Changqing as the Eleventh Sequence Holy Son had actually alarmed them.
At the same time, the Peak Masters of the Seven Main Peaks all breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
Faced with Chen Yuan's overwhelming aura, they were completely powerless to resist.
Fortunately, at the crucial moment, the leaders of each peak appeared.
"Sect Master, the matter of the Sequence Holy Son is not something you can decide alone!"
"It was Ancestor Zhanqiong who said in a deep voice."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan's face darkened, and he responded coldly:
"If I insist on making Chen Changqing the Sequence Holy Son of the Mount Shu lineage today, what will you all do?"
Upon hearing Chen Yuan's reply, the various leaders, including Ancestor Zhanqiong, all became imposing.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the Council Hall became tense.
It seemed as if a disagreement could easily escalate into a physical fight.
Just then, behind Yuehua, the peak master of Yunqi Peak, the helmsman, Ancestor Yunqi, spoke:
"Sect Master."
"If you insist on making that kid the Holy Son, you might as well let him pass the Heavenly Pass."
"If this child succeeds, we will recognize him as our Sequence Holy Son."
Upon hearing Ancestor Cloud Perch's words, the other six leaders nodded in agreement, finding the suggestion quite good.
"Breaking through the Heavenly Pass?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan's pupils dilated involuntarily.
This Heavenly Pass has seven gates, each set up by one of the seven major peaks.
The Seven Main Peaks didn't want Chen Changqing to become Sequence Holy Son, so you can imagine how difficult it would be for him to pass the test!
But now, the leaders of the Seven Main Peaks have all appeared.
If Chen Yuan doesn't agree, things will only get worse.
After some thought, a resolute glint flashed in Chen Yuan's eyes, and he said:
"Good."
"As you say, let my disciple go and challenge the Heavenly Pass."
Let's set the date for three days from now!
Seeing that Chen Yuan had agreed, the leaders of the Seven Main Peaks said nothing more and their figures disappeared.
Afterwards, the various Peak Masters did not linger and bid farewell before departing.
Before long, only Chen Yuan and Mo Tianji remained in the Council Hall.
"Hateful!"
"!"
Chen Yuan's face turned red with anger, his heart churning with rage.
"Whoosh!"
After a long while, he took a deep breath and then looked at Mo Tianji beside him:
"Go and fetch my disciple here!"
"Yes."
Mo Tianji responded with a "yes" and then slipped away.
Azure Firmament Valley.
Shi Tian's arrival surprised Qingyang greatly.
But after a moment's thought, Qingyang had already guessed it.
It must be Shi Tian challenged Chen Changqing but failed and was recruited by Chen Changqing.
Liu Mu immediately recognized that Shi Tian, who had returned with Chen Changqing, was already at the Early Golden Core.
"That kid Changqing, he's really good at planning ahead!"
"However, he has now broken through to the Golden Core level, and the position of the Sequence Holy Son promised by the Sect Master will likely be given to him soon."
Liu Mu sighed softly, glancing in the direction of Seven Stars Peak.
He had heard the sound of the Golden Bell earlier as well.
Thinking that the Sect Master Chen Yuan summoned the Peak Masters of the major Main Peaks to a meeting, it was very likely that it was about Chen Changsheng becoming Sequence Holy Son.
At this moment, Chen Changqing was lying on a chair, leisurely basking in the sun.
Suddenly, a streak of light descended from the sky.
Upon closer inspection, Mo Tianji's figure was seen descending from the sky.
Elder Mo!
Upon seeing Mo Tianji arrive, Chen Changqing stood up to greet him.
"Changqing, the Sect Master has ordered you to come to an audience!"
Mo Tianji said calmly.
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Changqing's brows furrowed slightly, and he began to have some doubts.
"My master has instructed me to go and see him at this time."
"Could something have happened?"
In Chen Changqing's view, if he were indeed confirmed as the Sequence Holy Son, the announcement should be made directly to the Shu Mountain Sacred Land.
However, the fact that Chen Yuan is asking him to come and see him now most likely means that something has changed in this matter.
"Good!"
After a moment's thought, Chen Changqing nodded slightly and left with Mo Tianji without lingering.
Before long, Mo Tianji had brought Chen Changqing to the Council Hall of Seven Stars Peak.
Upon seeing Chen Changqing arrive, Chen Yuan looked slightly embarrassed.
After all, when they accepted Chen Changqing as their Personal Disciple...
He made a solemn promise that if Chen Changqing could advance to the Golden Core within ten years, he would make him the Eleventh Sequence Holy Son of Mount Shu.
However, due to the intervention of the leaders of the Seven Main Peaks, things have taken an unexpected turn.
"Why has Master summoned me here?"
Just as Chen Yuan was in a daze, Chen Changqing asked.
"Well!"
Chen Yuan sighed helplessly before explaining:
"My disciple."
"Previously, I intended to directly designate you as the Eleventh Sequence Holy Son of the Shu Mountain Sacred Land."
"Unexpectedly, this matter was opposed by the Peak Master, and eventually even attracted the intervention of the helmsmen behind the Seven Main Peaks."
"..."
"My disciple, if you wish to become Holy Son, you must successfully pass the Heavenly Pass!"
After hearing what Chen Yuan said, Chen Changqing was shocked.
Just as he had suspected, the matter of the Sequence Holy Son had changed.
"I never imagined that this Shu Mountain Sacred Land would have seven leaders, each of them an old monster at the Tribulation Transcendence Realm!"
"This foundation is incredibly strong!"
Chen Changqing sighed softly, then looked at Chen Yuan and asked:
"Master, what is this Heavenly Pass?"
Chen Yuan didn't delay and quickly explained:
"The Heavenly Pass is a test set by each of the Seven Main Peaks."
"But don't worry, my disciple."
"The power of these challenges will not exceed that of a cultivator at the Purple Mansion level."
Upon hearing Chen Yuan's words, Chen Changqing smiled faintly and replied:
"Good."
"Master, rest assured, your disciple will definitely pass the Heavenly Pass!"
As Chen Changqing spoke, he appeared utterly confident. For him, anything not exceeding the power of the Purple Mansion was a piece of cake.
