Victory at the Dharma Assembly Shook the Four Corners, Delving into the Sword Stele to Comprehend True Intention

All the Golden Core True Person in the arena turned their attention to Chen Shuangbai.

The battle at Cloud Dragon Lake was so significant that almost everyone who knew the name Chen Shuangbai could recall his feat of defeating the Late Golden Core Stage High Person Jinquan cultivator, Jinquan Shangren, while only at the Middle Golden Core Stage realm.

But despite the rumors, many people still believe that there's a lot of exaggeration involved.

But after watching several matches, they finally understood why the late-stage High Person Jinquan Late Golden Core Stage, was defeated by this Jade Spring Dao Child.

There was no other reason than that this person had indeed demonstrated extraordinary killing power in these few sword sparring matches.

True Lord Xuanyuan forcibly stopped the sparring match, but all the cultivators on the stage could clearly see who had won and who had lost.

Chen Shuangbai sheathed his sword and stood quietly, looking at the True Person Jixuan before him.

Gong Yue's face was covered in bruises, and Chen Shuangbai thought he was about to explode, but in a very short time, he composed himself, sheathed his two swords, a flash of Divine Ability light appeared on his body, his disheveled white hair was neatly tied back, and he bowed respectfully. "Fellow Daoist, your swordsmanship is excellent!"

Having said that, without waiting for Chen Shuangbai's response, he turned and returned to the high platform.

The cultivators gazed at the single figure within the Dharma Realm, their eyes filled with awe and admiration.

Today's battle is enough to make the name of True Person Xuhong Chen Shuangbai, resound throughout the entire Dharma Assembly.

On the high platform to the north, Gao Yi was already flushed with excitement. If it weren't for the occasion, he probably would have cheered already.

This was something that made him even happier than if he had won himself.

As soon as Chen Shuangbai returned to the high platform, Gao Yi rushed forward to greet her, his tone cheerful and eager, "Congratulations, Master!"

Chen Shuangbai smiled and patted his fourth disciple's head, then sat down. The colorful light of his Divine Ability flickered and gradually dissipated, shimmering like fireflies, and soon replenished his original Law Power consumption.

This sparring match between Golden Core level cultivators is now down to its final round.

Chen Shuangbai looked towards the high platform to the east, where there was a True Person dressed in a star-studded feather robe. He had clear features and an upright appearance, and one could tell from his appearance that he was a resilient and steadfast person.

It was none other than the True Person Lingxing of the Heavenly Star Mystic Sect.

Even Du Taixuan had to admit that this outstanding disciple of the Heavenly Star Mystic Sect was truly blessed with good fortune.

Just as the group was waiting to hear Zhao Shiyong announce the final sparring match, they suddenly saw the True Person Lingxing on the eastern high platform stand up. With a beaming smile, he first cupped his hands towards Chen Shuangbai's group, then looked at Zhao Shiyong True Lord Xuanyuan on the main platform, cupped his hands, and said loudly, " True Lord, as for the upcoming sparring match with Fellow Xuhong, I admit I am no match for him, so I will simply refrain from making a fool of myself."

An uproar ensued.

This is the first Golden Core True Person to admit defeat before even taking the stage at this Dharma Assembly.

Zhao Shiyong was slightly taken aback, then looked at True Lord Xuanyuan.

True Lord Xuanyuan sat upright on the main platform, his expression unchanged, only nodding slightly to indicate his approval.

The [ Sword Continuation Dharma Assembly ] had few restrictions; it was simply a group of like-minded people who aspired to go further in the way of the sword, inheriting and continuing the legacy of the sword master [ Sword Immortal Huanzhen].

This time it didn't happen, but it did happen the previous times.

Furthermore, there is no evidence that the Heavenly Star Mystic Sect and Jade Spring Sect have any private dealings. These two Nascent Soul sects, one in the Northern Region and the other in the Southern Region, do not have much interaction, so it is highly unlikely that the two sides are colluding.

True Person Xizhao craned his neck, circling back and forth between True Person Lingxing and Jade Spring Dao Child. Suddenly, he remembered something, looked at True Person Jixuan with a gloomy face, and seemed to understand something. As if he had inadvertently said it out loud.

"Oh, so it's because it doesn't match True Person Jixuan!"

His words sounded perfectly normal, but anyone with a discerning eye could immediately understand what was going on.

Although the cultivators were very restrained, subtle laughter could be heard intermittently.

This move undoubtedly made Gong Yue's expression even more unpleasant.

Chen Shuangbai also realized what was happening and couldn't help but mutter to herself.

"This is purely to cause trouble for the Arrayed Mystery Sect... right?"

"I'm not even going to act anymore!"

The two Nascent Soul forces in the Northern Region, Arrayed Mystery Sect and Heavenly Star Mystic Sect, are locked in a fierce struggle, neither willing to allow the other to further expand their territory and influence.

He glanced again at the smiling True Person Lingxing on the eastern platform, and then at Gong Yue, whose face was ashen, on the southern platform, and shook his head inwardly.

On the surface, this True Person Lingxing was giving himself a way out, but in reality, he was using this opportunity to slap the Arrayed Mystery Sect in the face.

After all, Gong Yue suffered a humiliating defeat, while True Person Lingxing surrendered without even fighting. Wasn't that saying, "I came to this Dharma assembly because of you, Gong Yue!"

If you manage to make it to the end, I'll stop you!

But since you lost here, it's none of my business anymore.

Gong Yue clearly understood this implication, and his expression darkened even further.

But he was, after all, a direct True Person of the Arrayed Mystery Sect, and in front of so many people, he couldn't afford to lose his temper. He could only snort coldly, turn his head away, and no longer look in any direction.

Zhao Shiyong also realized the situation was somewhat delicate. To prevent the two from actually arguing, he quickly changed the subject. "In that case, according to the rules of the Dharma Assembly, the champion of this Golden Core Realm competition will be True Person Xuhong of the Jade Spring Sect!"

The swordplay ceremony has come to an end.

As for the rewards for the two champions, they can naturally collect them privately.

If it were taken out openly and honestly, and there were malicious people in the crowd, it might be seen by someone with ill intentions... which could cause even more trouble!

That night, the stars shone brightly.

Alone Chen Shuangbai, guided by a Profound Firmament Sect disciple sent by Zhao Shiyong, left the Crimson Rosy Clouds Garden and headed south, landing on a spiritual peak covered with red maple trees.

Before he even got close, he could already sense several powerful auras lurking on this sacred peak. When he landed in front of a palace in the mountains, he saw that Zhao Shiyong and True Lord Xuanyuan were already waiting. So he descended from the clouds.

"I apologize for keeping you waiting, True Lord."

True Lord Xuanyuan wore a crimson robe, with fiery Divine Ability light flowing across it, faintly revealing the shapes of crimson stars. He nodded slightly, showing little expression.

In addition, there were two other people standing on the left and right.

A man clad in a star-studded robe, with handsome features and an upright appearance—wasn't that none other than the True Person Lingxing of the Heavenly Star Mystic Sect?

As for the other one--

She appeared to be in her early thirties, with a dignified and beautiful appearance. She wore a long blue dress with a light blue silk sash tied around her waist, and had a gentle and graceful demeanor. She was a female cultivator at the Golden Core stage.

Seeing Chen Shuangbai's surprised expression, True Person Lingxing laughed and said, "What? Fellow Xuhong, do you not wish to see me?"
