The remains of the Taihao Star, in the Great Rift Valley.
Under the watchful eyes of many outstanding talents:
The pillar of starlight that shot into the sky flickered twice and then suddenly went out.
The Taihao Essence has already been taken away.
At this moment, the feelings of the many prodigies were extremely complicated.
They had expected that this battle, like many others before, would last nearly a decade before a final winner was determined.
Although the main characters are still those super geniuses at the Divine Origin Realm, they are not without hope.
But no one could have predicted it:
In less than four years, this battle came to an end, and the Taihao Essence found a new owner.
This time, the protagonist is not one of those high-ranking, powerful geniuses from the Divine Origin Realm, but a little-known yet terrifyingly powerful dark horse!
A peerless hero who, with overwhelming and unparalleled advantages, undeniably seized the Taihao Essence!
This grand drama ended halfway through its run.
On the Earth Star where the Pavilion of Stars is located.
The sensation caused by Chen Qingyu in the Myriad Dharma Dao Domain was still ongoing:
Above the stars, the enormous Hundred-Step Divine Rankings suddenly vanished without warning!
This scene immediately caused a violent shock:
The Hundred-Step Divine Rankings has disappeared!
It seems that the Taihao Essence already has an owner.
That's so fast!
Yes, that's really scary. Just how terrifying is Chen Qingyu's strength in the Myriad Dharma Dao Domain?
Historically, examples of competitions where a final winner emerges in just four years are extremely rare, aren't they?
The many prodigies were discussing the matter animatedly, their feelings a mix of emotions. Many were already packing their belongings and preparing to leave the Pavilion of Stars.
The Taihao Essence has found its owner; the battle for it has ended. Continuing to stay in the Star Sea is less desirable than returning home sooner.
And in the Hall of Ten Thousand Stars:
Yes, you're right.
Elder Zhao, dressed in black, was bowing deeply, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
Opposite him was a mirror-like Mystic Artifact, reflecting the figure of a stern-faced young man who was reprimanding him:
What are you thinking? Hmm?!
In the hundreds of previous battles, no one dared to set this precedent. You've got guts!
Elder Zhao lowered his head, not daring to argue.
After returning from the wreckage of Taihao Star, he went straight back to the Hall of Ten Thousand Stars to heal the wounds of various super geniuses at the Divine Origin Realm.
By the time their injuries were healed, news of the incident had reached the vicinity of the Star Gate. The guardian elder in charge of guarding the Star Gate was furious and berated him mercilessly.
Okay.
After cursing for a while, the cold-faced young man's anger subsided somewhat, and he said in a deep voice:
You've made a huge mistake this time; you've directly broken the rules, and no one dares to protect you now!
You will soon be stepping down. Be prepared to return to the palace and apologize with a bundle of thorns on your back!
Elder Zhao felt extremely bitter, but dared not say anything more, and could only whisper:
yes.
The cold-faced young man gave him a deep look and said in a low voice:
After you go back, you'll most likely have your cultivation abolished, be stripped of your elder title, and imprisoned on the Prison-Suppressing Star.
However, you don't need to despair. In a few decades, someone from the palace might contact you.
Upon hearing this, Elder Zhao's heart immediately stirred, and a hint of secret joy welled up within him!
Upon hearing these words, he knew that his risky gamble had paid off!
This Dharma Protector Elder was a disciple of a certain Emperor Venerable in the palace, and according to seniority, he was Liang Jingxiao's junior uncle, whose status was far higher than Liang Jingxiao's.
The other party's words clearly implied that although he had made a grave mistake, he had also managed to curry favor with some high-ranking officials in the palace, and that he would still have a chance to rise in the future!
Yes, thank you, sir!
He bowed deeply, finally feeling completely at ease.
Um.
The aloof young man nodded slightly and said calmly:
And that Chen Qingyu, his strength and methods are outstanding, even surpassing the Dao Son cultivated by my Supreme Star Palace!
What's even more remarkable is that this person seems to have come from humble beginnings and has no powerful backing.
Try to make contact with him. If possible, try to recruit him into my Supreme Star Palace. You can be a little more lenient with the conditions, and you can even promise him the position of the current Dao Son!
The Supreme Star Palace has been holding onto the remnants of the Taihao Star for millions of years.
Although they are the overlords of the Star Sea, they have always been proactive and have never given up on absorbing fresh blood from the outside world.
The reason they set up multiple obstacles and conducted rigorous screening and elimination was actually to recruit truly outstanding talents, hoping to find the gold in the sand.
Chen Qingyu was clearly a very suitable and satisfactory target.
this
Upon hearing this, Elder Zhao's expression changed immediately, and his heart sank.
He had a deep understanding of the system and internal atmosphere of the Supreme Star Palace.
With Chen Qingyu's talent, strength, and status as the master of the Taihao Essence, once he enters the Supreme Star Palace, he will surely be sought after by many Emperor Venerable to become their personal disciple!
Therefore, even if he were an outsider, the Dharma Protector Elder could promise him the position of Dao Son in advance!
The problem is, he has a grudge against Chen Qingyu. What if this person enters the Supreme Star Palace and becomes Dao Son? Wouldn't he be doomed?
At that time, a single, casual remark from the other party could plunge him into an abyss!
Um?
The aloof young man raised an eyebrow and said:
Is there a problem?
No, no problem.
Elder Zhao felt deeply distressed, but he forced a smile and whispered:
Rest assured, sir, I will definitely handle this matter properly.
He had no room to disobey the elder's orders and had to do his best to carry them out, daring not to make any underhanded moves.
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get past the hurdle of breaking the rules with his actions.
Um.
The aloof young man nodded slightly and said:
That's settled then. Get this done as soon as possible and then contact me again.
As soon as he finished speaking, the mirror shimmered slightly, and the cold, handsome young man's figure vanished instantly.
Elder Zhao then dared to straighten up, his face extremely pale and his heart heavy with sorrow.
I regret making an enemy of Chen Qingyu.
This isn't the first time he's regretted something because of this.
But each time the regret comes, it seems to grow stronger. Right now, he's so regretful he feels like he could slap himself twice.
Looking back on the foolish things I did, it wasn't just a case of losing a watermelon for a sesame seed; it was like throwing away an entire mountain of gold in the name of digging for a single piece!
If he could have established a good relationship with Chen Qingyu from the beginning, wouldn't he have gained another powerful backer in the Supreme Star Palace?
Why!
Since things have come to this, all I can do is try my best to repair our relationship.
Elder Zhao was extremely annoyed. He stepped out of the hall and looked up at the sky.
The once-conspicuous Hundred-Step Divine Rankings in the sky had vanished, making his expression even more grim.
He moved so fast!
He shook his head, just as he was about to leave:
boom!
A dazzling streak of starlight descended from the heavens, piercing the sea of clouds and heading straight for the Hall of Ten Thousand Stars!
Um?
Elder Zhao's mind stirred, and he recognized the owner of the escaping light.
It's him? What's he doing at my Hall of Ten Thousand Stars? Could it be...?
