Wuzhen Descends! The Universe Mountain and River Map

After Wu Zhen appeared, there was no trace of his aura emanating from his entire body.

Even so, the moment he appeared, he seemed to become the center of this world.

Behind Wu Zhen, a man followed closely.

The man appeared to be in his early twenties, with a tall and straight posture, wearing a simple sky-blue sword robe without much decoration.

He had a handsome face, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, but his gaze was unusually calm.

Who else could it be but Lu Tian, Wu Zhen's Personal Disciple?

Upon seeing the master and disciple appear, all the people from Mount Shu on the Questioning Platform turned their attention to them.

After a moment of silence, many people from Mount Shu bowed in respect.

"Greetings, Ancestor Wuzhen!"

"Greetings, Ancestor!"

In an instant, a unified sound of worship rang out.

Regardless of the Peak Scion, Peak Master, or helmsmen of each peak, or the Holy Sons and other disciples of Mount Shu.

Everyone was extremely respectful and solemn.

You must know that Wu Zhen is the Pillar of Stability of the Shu Mountain Sacred Land.

His cultivation had already reached the level of Heavenly Monarch. He did not concern himself with worldly affairs and spent most of his time cultivating and comprehending the Great Dao within Realization Peak.

Even so, Wu Zhen is the spiritual symbol of Mount Shu, and a living legend!

His status and prestige are unmatched in Mount Shu!

Even looking at the entire Nine Provinces Continent, Wu Zhen's strength is among the top, firmly ranking in the top ten of the Nine Provinces Powerhouse Ranking.

"Greetings, Grandmaster!"

At the same time, Chen Changqing also bowed to Wu Zhen.

He had personally witnessed Wu Zhen's power back in Medicine God Valley.

A mere Sword Qi was enough to instantly kill a Title True Lord.

He later single-handedly fought against three powerful Heavenly Monarch, and with the blessing of the Haotian Mirror, he emerged victorious.

It can be said that Wu Zhen alone protected the entire Medicine God Valley.

In addition, after meeting Hua Yao, Wu Zhen generously gave Hua Yao an Immortal Artifact called the Qinglin Jade Hairpin as a gift.

All of this naturally made Chen Changqing hold his grandmaster in high esteem.

"Um?"

"Lu Tian's aura... has he Tribulation Transcendence?"

Immediately afterwards, Chen Changqing noticed Lu Tian following behind Wu Zhen.

Unlike Wu Zhen, who concealed his aura perfectly, Lu Tian did not deliberately conceal his aura, revealing his Tribulation Bandit Cultivator.

"It seems that my junior uncle has also been working hard to break through his cultivation barrier during this period, and his cultivation has reached the Tribulation Transcendence!"

Chen Changqing sighed inwardly.

When Chen Changqing first went to pay his respects to Wu Zhen, he saw Lu Tian in that courtyard.

Upon learning that the visitor was Chen Changqing, Lu Tian was extremely excited and clamored to spar with Chen Changqing, truly a warmonger.

After a moment's thought, Chen Changqing came to his senses and didn't dwell on it any further.

At this moment, many disciples of Mount Shu were also discussing the matter:

"That's Lu Tian Peak Scion of Seven Stars Peak?"

"He's also at the Bandit Cultivator level!"

"Seven Stars Peak wasn't originally Seven Main Peaks, but because it belongs to the Sect Master Lineage, it also qualified for this grand competition!"

"Although Chen Changqing is Holy Son, he was accepted as the Sect Master's Personal Disciple; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to participate in the Seven Peaks Grand Competition."

"What's the point of participating? The Peak Scion of these peaks are all Tribulation Transcendence beings, while Chen Changqing is only at the Late Spirit Transformation stage. Even if he participates, he'll be eliminated sooner or later!"

"Seven Stars Peak's chances of achieving good results this time depend on Lu Tian!"

"..."

Hearing the surrounding discussions, Liu Mu and the Evergreen Peak looked rather grim.

After all, they were under Chen Changqing's command, and hearing these people so disdainful of Chen Changqing naturally made them unhappy.

In contrast, Chen Changqing acted as if nothing had happened, completely ignoring the disparaging remarks made about him.

Just then, two more streaks of light flew down from the void.

These two were none other than Chen Yuan, the Sect Master of the Shu Mountain Sacred Land, and Mo Tianji.

Upon seeing this, many people from Mount Shu bowed respectfully.

"Greetings, Sect Master!"

Upon seeing Chen Yuan, the leader of the Seven Peaks was not as respectful as he had been when he saw Wu Zhen earlier; he merely gave Chen Yuan a nod.

Upon seeing this, Chen Changqing also bowed to Chen Yuan:

"Greetings, Master!"

After standing up, a hint of surprise flashed across his brow.

Thinking that all the leaders of the Seven Peaks had already broken through to the True Lord level, while his own master's cultivation was still stuck at the Tribulation Transcendence level.

"Could it be that Master is hiding his true cultivation level?"

Suddenly, a thought flashed through Chen Changqing's mind.

Upon arriving, Chen Yuan smiled faintly, then turned to look at where Wu Zhen was, and bowed respectfully.

"Disciple greets Master!"

Wu Zhen remained calm, nodded slightly, and said nothing.

The next moment, he took a step into the void in front of him, his gaze sweeping over the many Mount Shu disciples on the Questioning Platform below.

Upon receiving Wu Zhen's gaze, everyone below was startled.

They felt as if Wu Zhen had seen right through them!

Just as the many disciples of Mount Shu were shaken, Wu Zhen smiled faintly and said:

"At the start of the competition, Heavenly Dao."

"I hope you will all utilize your knowledge, cherish your youth, and never forget the bonds of camaraderie among your fellow students, nor the righteousness of your hearts."

These few simple words instantly stirred the hearts and ignited the passion of all the disciples who were about to participate in the grand competition.

Wu Zhen didn't pay any attention to this, and then gently flicked his sleeve.

"Boom!"

Immediately afterwards, an ancient scroll flew out from Wu Zhen's sleeve.

As soon as the scroll was unfurled, it grew longer in the wind.

In just a short while, the scroll appeared in the void above the Questioning Platform, forming a gigantic scroll that blotted out the sky.

Looking around, one can see light and shadow flowing within the painting.

Mountains and rivers, desolate deserts, ancient city ruins, Secret Realm forests... all sorts of scenes shift between reality and illusion.

The painting gives the impression that it contains countless Minor Worlds, each self-contained and brimming with Dao Resonance.

"Um?"

Upon seeing the scroll that Wu Zhen had presented, Chen Changqing was slightly surprised, realizing that it was no ordinary scroll.

In terms of the quality of Law Artifacts, it is at least at the level of Immortal Artifacts.

"I wonder just how many Immortal Artifacts my grandmaster possessed?"

"Compared to me, who has more and who has less?"

Chen Changqing muttered to himself, he also possessed quite a few Immortal Artifacts: the Heaven-Stepping Ring, the Heavenly Thunder Sword, the Dragon-Patterned Sky-Splitting Spear, the Immortal-Burying Zither...

Just as Chen Changqing was lost in thought, all the other Mount Shu disciples present exclaimed in amazement:

"What an amazing painting!"

Could there be a Minor World hidden within this painting?

"Could it be that the Seven Peaks Grand Competition is to be held within that painting?"

"As expected of Ancestor Wuzhen! He can conjure such a profound and extraordinary scroll with just a flick of his wrist!"

"..."

Many disciples of Mount Shu stared intently at the scroll.

Just then, Wu Zhen smiled faintly and continued:

"This is the Universe Mountain and River Map,' containing the universe within it and giving rise to all things."

"The First Trial of this year's Seven Peaks Grand Competition will be held here."
