Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Council Hall.

Ning Fengzhi stood in the center of the hall, his scepter lightly tapping against the floor.

After the Evil Emperor received the Heavenly Dao's reward, the atmosphere within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had become grave.

An eight-hundred-thousand-year soul beast possessing a god-level bloodline and god-level soul skill was enough to change the balance between the two continents.

Ning Fengzhi gazed at the Heavenly Screen.

"The situation on Douluo Continent has changed."

"Spirit Hall has Bibi Dong, while Sun Moon Continent has the Evil Emperor."

"The powerhouses higher on the ranking will only be more terrifying."

Chen Xin stood at the side, his white robes stirring gently in the wind.

"Once the ranking ends, every faction will find ways to recruit those who made the list."

Gu Rong folded his arms.

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect cannot keep sitting by and waiting for the situation to change."

Ning Fengzhi nodded.

He was already considering how to establish contact with the powerhouses at the top of the ranking.

If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could gain the support of a supreme powerhouse, then even if chaos broke out across the continent in the future, they could preserve the sect's foundations.

Just then, a disciple rushed into the hall.

"Sect Master, bad news!"

Ning Fengzhi frowned.

"What happened?"

The disciple stopped below the dais, his face pale.

"Miss... Miss has been taken away!"

Ning Fengzhi's expression changed drastically.

"Rongrong?"

Chen Xin and Gu Rong turned their heads at the same time.

Ning Fengzhi stepped forward.

"Who did it?"

The disciple lowered his head, his body trembling slightly.

"That man wore white robes and had handsome features. He entered Seven Treasure City alone."

"Miss clashed with him near the mountain gate, and he took her away afterward."

"What?"

Soul power suddenly surged from Gu Rong's body.

"Someone took Rongrong away within the territory of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

To the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, this was no ordinary conflict.

It was a slap across the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's face in front of the entire world.

Ning Fengzhi tightened his grip on his scepter.

"Seal off Seven Treasure City immediately."

"Mobilize all disciples and search for Rongrong."

The disciple quickly acknowledged the order and turned to leave.

But Chen Xin raised a hand to stop him.

"Wait."

His expression gradually turned strange.

"What did you say that man looked like?"

The disciple hurriedly replied, "White robes, black hair, handsome features. He looked very young, and no soul rings appeared on his body."

Chen Xin froze where he stood.

White robes.

Black hair.

Handsome features.

Within the Sword Pavilion in the rear mountain, that ancient sword had been waiting for thirty years.

When the Heavenly Screen had revealed the Evil Emperor's reward just now, the sword intent of the ancient sword had awakened once more.

Chen Xin suddenly thought of that senior swordsman.

"Could it be..."

"Uncle Sword, have you thought of something?" Ning Fengzhi asked.

Chen Xin did not answer immediately.

Gu Rong also looked toward the rear mountain.

That Sword Pavilion had always been enveloped in sword qi. Other than Chen Xin, no one could enter.

If that ancient sword truly had an owner, then that person appearing at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect today was no coincidence.

Chen Xin looked toward the mountain gate.

"That person may not have taken Rongrong away."

"He may have brought her back to the sect."

Ning Fengzhi was stunned.

"Uncle Sword, you know him?"

Chen Xin slowly shook his head.

"I have never seen his true face."

"But I have seen that sword before."

"I spent my entire life pursuing its master, a senior I revered."

The expression on Gu Rong's face changed as well.

"That senior is still alive?"

Chen Xin looked at the Heavenly Screen, and an answer he had not considered in many years surfaced in his heart.

Perhaps that senior swordsman truly was still alive.

While the various factions were still discussing the matter, the Heavenly Screen changed once more.

The text concerning the Evil Emperor's reward gradually faded away.

New golden radiance gathered at the center of the sky.

Countless comments flashed wildly across the screen.

[Independent Soul Master: Eighth place is about to appear!] [Heaven Dou Empire Soul Master: Will this one be a soul master or a soul beast?] [Star Luo Empire Soul Master: The Evil Emperor already received two god-level rewards. What will the reward for eighth place be?] [Clear Sky Sect Seventh Elder: A powerhouse of my Clear Sky Sect will definitely rank in the top ten!]

Spirit City.

Bibi Dong stood outside Papal Hall.

Behind her, her luxurious gown trailed across the ground. Her slender legs were wrapped in black stockings, and under the golden glow, her figure appeared even taller.

She lifted her eyes toward the Heavenly Screen.

"Another hidden powerhouse is about to appear."

"I want to see just how many monsters are hiding at the top."

Star Dou Great Forest.

Gu Yuena stood above Lake of Life, her purple eyes reflecting the changes in the Heavenly Screen.

Di Tian, Bear Lord, Bi Ji, and Myriad Demon King all looked up.

Gu Yuena said softly, "This time, it may still be a soul beast."

Bear Lord immediately spoke. "Could it be Lord Di Tian?"

Di Tian gave him a glance.

"If I make the ranking, I would not merely be in eighth place."

Bear Lord rubbed his nose.

"Lord Di Tian is at least in the top three."

Myriad Demon King nodded.

"With Lord Di Tian's strength, the top eight certainly would not be his limit."

The ferocious beasts turned back toward the Heavenly Screen.

They all wanted to know which soul beast would take eighth place.

Sun Moon Continent.

The Evil Emperor had already fused part of the Candle Dragon Bloodline into its body.

Its spiritual power had become more solid than before, and the surrounding space twisted faintly beneath its will.

Feeling the growing power within its body, the Evil Emperor was filled with confidence.

"This Emperor has now become terrifyingly powerful."

"What kind of strength do those ranked above this Emperor possess?"

Its single eye stared fixedly at the Heavenly Screen.

The next moment, golden radiance suddenly erupted.

A vast expanse of ice and snow appeared before everyone.

Snow drifted down between heaven and earth.

A freezing wind swept across the boundless snowfield.

A woman in white stood atop an ice cliff.

She had long snow-white hair, its strands scattering behind her in the wind and blending with the endless snow.

Her white dress fell to her ankles, the fabric swaying softly in the wind.

She stood barefoot upon the ice, her legs long and her skin fair and translucent.

With every step she took, fine cold light rippled across the ice.

The woman held an icy sword in her hand.

She raised her wrist, and the blade swept through the air.

The sword intent drew in the falling snow, causing it to whirl around her body.

White sword light bloomed.

A massive ice lotus blossomed atop the glacier.

The woman stood at its heart, her features exquisitely beautiful, her brows and eyes carrying an aloof purity that kept others at a distance.

She swung her sword again.

The ice lotus instantly shattered.

Countless ice crystals shot into the distance, leaving clear cracks in space along their path.

The entire Far North fell silent.

Majestic words slowly descended from above the Heavenly Screen.

[Supreme Powerhouse Ranking: Eighth Place!] [Snow Emperor!] [Seven-Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!]

Across the continent, soul masters raised their heads.

[Independent Soul Emperor: Another soul beast?] [Heaven Dou Empire Soul Master: Why does this soul beast look exactly like a human?] [Star Luo Empire Soul Master: Is that a sword in her hand? Can soul beasts cultivate the sword path too?] [Elephant Armor Sect Master Huyan Zhen: She only has seven hundred thousand years of cultivation. Why is she ranked above the Evil Emperor?]

Many soul masters looked confused.

The Evil Emperor possessed eight hundred thousand years of cultivation, and its spiritual power had reached the pinnacle.

The Snow Emperor only had seven hundred thousand years of cultivation, yet her ranking was one place above the Evil Emperor's.

Could there be an error in this ranking?
