Just as the discussion was in full swing in the courtyard of the Central Continent Sect.
Inside the massive mansion of the Four Continents Faction, a discussion about the Eastern Continent Heavenly Supervision Department was also taking place.
However, unlike the prodigies of the Central Continent Sect...
A few of them were standing in front of the Taiqing Dao Tablet that day and knew the extraordinary talent Elder Ye possessed.
However, due to the restrictions placed by the Heavenly Supervision Department, they were unable to reveal any related information.
For now, all they could do was drink in silence, listening to the spittle flying as the uninformed geniuses from the four continents discussed the matter.
"I've heard that among the people from the Eastern Continent Heavenly Supervision Department who came this time, one of them possesses extraordinary talent, and the phenomena he triggered are almost identical to those of the former Ziwei Hall?!"
"More than that! When the Ziwei Hall was testing aptitude back then, the shielding Array Formation in the royal city were nowhere near as perfect as they are today. You think they're about the same, but in reality, the difference is probably enormous!"
"What you said actually makes some sense..."
"Of course! In my opinion, that person's talent is definitely more terrifying than the current Ziwei Hall!"
"What level of cultivation must he be at?"
"I've never heard of this before... but it must be at least at the sixth level of the Heaven and Earth Realm..."
The geniuses of the four continents are all well-traveled and knowledgeable outstanding individuals.
At a young age, he learned the lesson from the shoulders of his elders. "The land is vast, and there are always people more capable than you."
Therefore, even if they were not present at the test that day, judging from the fact that everyone who was there was now silent, that Eastern Continent prodigy must be someone of considerable importance.
"..."
However, they never dreamed that the truth would be many times more outrageous than they imagined.
Just recalling that day made the young man in the purple cloak, Xiao Jin, feel suffocated.
Bite--
His fingertips lightly tapped the ice-patterned teacup, the lotus- Spirit Medicine floating inside making a soft, clear sound, but the bitterness in his heart did not lessen in the slightest.
A nineteen-year-old True Person of the Divine Connection Realm.
If we were to encounter them, we would be dead; there would be absolutely no chance of survival...
Moreover, Xiao Jin was also very clear about it.
Even if you include the [Golden Scale Grotto-Heaven] behind you, it still can't compare to that favored child of heaven and earth.
Therefore, he did not intend to confront the other party head-on.
They don't even intend to show the slightest hostility openly.
They were merely using this group of geniuses from the four continents, who were unaware of the full situation, to set up a trap.
A situation that could create a win-win situation for both myself and Elder Ye.
Therefore, he specifically sought out Luo Lingxi, the renowned female Talisman Dao master in the Southern Continent, yesterday.
This woman possesses Talisman at the Divine Connection Realm level, making her qualified to discuss the planning of such an important matter with Xiao Jin, and also capable of helping him complete the arrangements.
Time slipped away quietly within the mansion.
Snap--
When Xiao Jin's knuckles tapped the ice-patterned teacup for the third time, the Green Lotus steeping in the teacup suddenly turned upside down.
He finally made up his mind.
The crowd before them was engrossed in speculating about the strength of that Eastern Continent prodigy.
"They might be at least at the sixth level of the Heaven and Earth Realm, I even think they could be at the late stage of the Heaven and Earth Realm!"
"Late stage of the Heaven and Earth Realm? Absolutely impossible!"
"Why not? Based on our previous speculation, that person is even more powerful than the Ziwei Hall..."
"Wasn't that Ziwei Hall only at the fourth level of the Heaven and Earth Realm back then?"
"Indeed, the outcome of a battle depends on the specific age of one's cultivation. How could someone reach the late stage of the Heaven and Earth Realm in less than a thousand years..."
"I don't think so," Xiao Jin suddenly raised his eyes and interrupted the discussion in the courtyard.
"Gentlemen, have you ever heard of the Youdu Mountain four thousand years ago?"
Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at him.
Seeing that it was the strongest genius of Golden Scale Grotto-Heaven who spoke, they immediately became solemn and bowed in reply:
"So it's Brother Xiao. We'd like to hear the details."
Xiao Jin nodded first, then put down his teacup and slowly said:
Legend has it that in the Youdu Mountain of the Western Continent, there once lived a senior named "Nether Soul Blood Venerable"...
Buzz!--
As he spoke, the spiritual mist bursting from the lotus heart in his cup condensed on the surface of the tea, forming a phantom light screen that reflected a majestic Dao stele shrouded in a thick crimson hue!
The moment I saw this light screen.
Those geniuses from the four continents who knew the truth trembled in their Divine Soul, and their expressions changed drastically!
This is a warning sign that the Heavenly Supervision Department has sensed regarding the relevant situation!
The Buddhist Disciple from the Western Continent, who was also present at the scene that day, suddenly tensed his prayer beads:
"Benefactor Xiao! Be careful what you say!!"
"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to be nervous... I'm referring to the Nether Soul Blood Venerable of Youdu Mountain. What did you think it was?"
Xiao Jin smiled and wiped away the water stains on the rim of the cup, forcibly suppressing the palpitation that welled up in his heart. The remaining spiritual energy at his fingertips traced the crack patterns of the Taiqing Dao Tablet on the table.
He then raised his eyes to the increasingly curious group of geniuses from the four continents and said with a faint smile:
"If I remember correctly, this exceptionally talented Martial Dao master also participated in the Five Continents War back then."
"Because he entered the late stage of the Heaven and Earth Realm at such a young age, he caused the heavens and earth to tremble before the Dao Stele. In terms of momentum, he was even superior to that Ziwei Hall!"
"Unfortunately, his Dao Heart was unstable, and his cultivation Cultivation Method was not fully revealed under the reflection of the Dao Stele, which enraged the recording elder beside him..."
At this point, the illusion in his cup suddenly changed.
The towering, blood-red Dao stele trembled violently, thunderclouds rolled across the sky, and countless chilling, terrifying chains of the Heavenly Supervision Department pierced the cultivator's dantian.
It was a reenactment of the scene in front of the Taiqing Dao Tablet that day.
A collective gasp filled the courtyard.
"So, the reason he was able to reach such a level at such a young age was because he possessed a heretical cultivation method that could refine the foundations of his own kind!"
Xiao Jin's voice was deep and resonant, as if he were telling a story in a gentle, conversational tone. "After that, this Cultivation Method was acquired by the Heavenly Supervision Department, and it has not been seen in the outside world since."
"Even the Youdu Mountain in the Western Continent was exterminated by the Western Continent Director of the Celestial Observatory at the time."
At this point, a meaningful smile appeared on Xiao Jin's lips, "From now on, this strange and unpredictable evil cultivation Cultivation Method can be considered to have completely disappeared."
But everyone present was a prodigy; how could they not understand the hidden meaning in his words?
Someone couldn't help but ask, "This Cultivation Method is so domineering... Does the Heavenly Supervision Department really not allow its own people to practice it in private?"
It should be noted that quite a few Martial Dao experts die at the hands of the Heavenly Supervision Department every year.
If you want to cultivate using this evil method, it couldn't be easier!
"Who knows?"
A soft laugh came from not far away; it was none other than Luo Lingxi Southern Continent Talisman Girl.
She rose gracefully, and with a smile that seemed to reassure everyone, said, "Don't worry, the Heavenly Supervision Department is a pillar of the Divine Continent. Even if there really is a cultivator there, they won't let the world know about it."
"Moreover, as far as I know, that Cultivation Method has very strict requirements for its targets."
"If it weren't for the foundation of a prodigy, it wouldn't even be worth being swallowed up."
Just then, Xiao Jin's Mirage Pearl exploded with a bang at the perfect moment.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and their pupils immediately contracted.
What appeared in the shattered light and shadow was the terrifying sight of Yang Shijian, the pride of the Northern Continent, gradually dissipating!
Ye Li's figure was the only one concealed.
In an instant, the vast courtyard fell into a deathly silence.
