There was a reason why the people of the Primordial Holy Heaven looked so unwell.
The nine great Holy Heaven consciously rejected them and divided up the existing benefits without even asking their opinions.
The rest...
What's left?
The Primordial Holy Heaven spared no effort this time, all in order to smoothly obtain the fortuitous opportunity. The students who came used every means at their disposal, and some were even seriously injured as a result. In terms of cultivation, they were indeed not as high as the geniuses of other Holy Heaven, but in terms of effort, they put in more effort than the geniuses of some of the top-ranked Holy Heaven!
But others actually did this!
From the Primordial Holy Heaven, a man with a livid face stepped forward.
He was a tall, upright man with long, flowing hair and piercing eyes.
His name is Xiao Yu, and he is the leader of the team appointed by the Holy Master this time. He spends most of his time on the Demon Battlefield and rarely returns to the academy.
In reality, most of the students in the academy are relatively new students who have only been enrolled for a few years. Even among the so-called "senior students," only a small portion have actually studied at Holy Heaven Academy for many years.
Most of the more ambitious senior students are either in the Demon-Suppressing City, on the Demon Battlefield, or have left this area to go to other places to train or fight, constantly improving themselves.
As one of the senior students, Xiao Yu's strength is among the top tier below the Ten Saints. However, he has been training and honing himself here, guarding the Demon-Suppressing City, and leading the new students of the Primordial Holy Heaven to adapt to the battlefield.
All the students of the Primordial Academy in Demon-Suppressing City admired him greatly.
At this moment, he spoke in a deep voice, "Gentlemen, if we follow your method of division, what will be left for my Primordial Holy Heaven?"
His words drew the attention of the other nine Holy Heaven, who seemed surprised that someone from the Primordial Holy Heaven dared to speak.
The leader of the Golden Feather Holy Heaven sneered repeatedly.
He was a strong and robust young man. Although Golden Feather Holy Heaven ranked only low among the Ten Great Saint Heavens, his strength was extremely remarkable. At least at this moment, he was the strongest in the entire Cloudmist Marsh and naturally held the power of discourse.
He glanced over casually, his tone mocking. "Don't worry, you Primordial Ones will get your share."
As soon as he finished speaking, he casually raised his hand.
"Three Fortune Lotus Seeds should be enough for you, right?"
Three lotus seeds, as white and lustrous as jade, flew from Fang Sheng's hand and were thrown towards Xiao Yu.
A faint sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and the other members of the Holy Heaven also wore amused expressions.
A few lotus seeds fell into my hand, cold to the touch; these three seemed particularly meager.
This is outrageous!
His expression was ugly and cold as he stared intently at Fang Sheng, his anger almost reaching its peak.
Not only him, but everyone else in the Primordial Holy Heaven was no exception.
The Holy Lotus of Creation is a treasure from head to toe, with its seeds being the most precious.
The finest lotus seeds are brimming with Spiritual Power and are entirely golden in color; such treasures are something even holy masters cannot resist.
The mid-grade lotus seeds are crystal purple and can nourish the soul, making them quite remarkable. Acquiring such lotus seeds would cause quite a stir at auctions.
And the jade-white lotus seeds...
Only low-grade lotus seeds would have this appearance.
While it is indeed precious, it is far inferior to top-grade and mid-grade lotus seeds!
and...
What's most infuriating is that even the lowest grade lotus seeds were only given to the Primordial Holy Heaven by Fang Sheng!
This is hardly profit sharing.
This is utterly humiliating!
What's the difference between this and giving money away to a beggar?
Xiao Yu took a deep breath, the fire in his eyes almost tangible. He gritted his teeth, his emotions churning like a raging sea.
Even though they knew in their hearts that the other nine Holy Heaven had always looked down on the Primordial Holy Heaven, apart from the hostile Holy Heaven, they could at least barely keep up appearances and at most suffer a few sarcastic remarks.
But now, they've gone to such an extreme!
This is absolutely outrageous!
Xiao Yu's anger was hard to contain. He took a deep breath, forcing down his rage, and gritted his teeth, saying, "Do you all not know how much our Primordial Holy Heaven has paid for this Holy Lotus of Creation?"
"Three inferior lotus seeds? Aren't you all going a bit too far?"
But before he could finish speaking, before his words had even fully faded, he was met with cold laughter from the other nine Holy Heaven.
The laughter was tinged with sarcasm.
Fang Sheng looked over slowly and deliberately, his mocking smile particularly irritating.
He came from the Golden Feather Holy Heaven. Although the Golden Feather Holy Heaven ranked relatively low among the Ten Great Saint Heavens, he was the strongest and most influential person present.
At that moment, he smiled knowingly.
"Oh?"
"Not enough?"
"In that case, we don't need it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Spiritual Power he had gathered in his hand was already blasted out, striking Xiao Yu's chest heavily. At the same time, the Spiritual Power transformed into a large palm, scooping up the three jade-white lotus seeds in mid-air.
"Cough!"
Xiao Yu was blasted back several steps by the attack, felt a sweet taste in his throat, and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
His eyes were filled with shock; he never expected that Fang Sheng would dare to make a move directly.
"Senior Brother Xiao!"
"Senior Brother Xiao! Are you alright?"
The other disciples of the Primordial Holy Heaven were both shocked and furious. They quickly reached out to support Xiao Yu and glared at Fang Sheng, almost grinding their teeth to powder.
The gazes of those around him were icy. It was safe to say that everyone knew about the feud between the Golden Feather Holy Heaven and the Primordial Holy Heaven.
Furthermore, the two Holy Heaven have been constantly at odds and in conflict over the years.
Some students even died inexplicably. Although on the surface it seemed to have little to do with Golden Feather Holy Heaven, many people knew perfectly well what was going on.
The Golden Feather Holy Heaven is truly cold-blooded and ruthless; behind the scenes, countless students of the Primordial Holy Heaven have been killed.
Unfortunately, there was no evidence to support this claim.
The two sides are mortal enemies.
The rapid decline of the Primordial Holy Heaven in recent years is also inextricably linked to the Golden Feather Holy Heaven...
Unfortunately, despite the deep-seated hatred, the Primordial Holy Heaven still had no way to avenge itself.
After all, compared to Golden Feather Holy Heaven, they were already a step weaker, and they had no evidence. If they wanted to retaliate, it was not something that could be done with just a few words.
Even now, with things having escalated to this point, the other Holy Heaven show no intention of intervening. In fact, some students from Holy Heaven that are on good terms with Golden Feather Holy Heaven have even spoken out with sneers.
"Trash should know their place. Don't think that just because more people came, you'll get more fortuitous opportunity. Don't you even know if you're worthy? Ha... This is the consequence of greed!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, have you Primordial Holy Heaven always been so shameless? Heh, I think this Holy Heaven Domain should only have nine Holy Heaven."
"Giving you three lotus seeds of the Holy Lotus of Creation is already a great favor, considering your considerable efforts. How dare you still harbor greed? It's utterly laughable!"
One sentence after another, one after another, were like a curse, piercing the hearts of the students of the Primordial Holy Heaven, making their faces turn extremely ugly!
However, there was nothing that could be done.
after all...
Who could blame them? Their Primordial Holy Heaven was weak, ranking at the bottom among the Holy Heaven. Even Senior Brother Xiao Yu, who led the team this time, was weaker than Fang Sheng.
For a moment, almost no one spoke, but the resentment they suppressed made almost everyone in the Primordial Holy Heaven tremble, as if they had another mouthful of blood stuck in their chests, which they could not swallow no matter what.
They put in countless efforts, only to be treated like this when not even a single lotus seed was left for them!
This is outrageous!
Despair and resentment filled the air, and many students were even unable to contain themselves, wanting to rush forward and fight the people of Golden Feather Holy Heaven to the death, but Xiao Yu shook his head and stopped them.
This approach is pointless.
Although he was unwilling, he knew that none of the other eight Holy Heaven would help the Primordial Holy Heaven, and that such an action would only invite more ridicule.
Just then, a voice, devoid of any emotion yet clearly revealing its stance to anyone, drifted from afar.
"Is what you all doing really going too far?"
"Three lotus seeds, huh? You've got the nerve to offer that?"
"Are all the people of the Golden Feather Holy Heaven always this shameless?"
The crowd looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man in white walking slowly in the distance. On his shoulder was a glossy Xiaolu, supporting itself on four thin legs.
The Xiaolu, its eyes shining, stared at the lotus seeds in Fang Sheng's hand, almost leaping up.
"Master! That's delicious!"
" Xuan Bing wants it!"
The person who arrived was none other than Lin Xuan.
Or rather, he has been here for some time now.
Originally, Lin Xuan had no intention of showing himself.
Even if he needs resources, there's no need for him to break the rules; this isn't the only fortuitous opportunity in this Demon Battlefield.
He just happened to be there when he arrived.
Therefore, Lin Xuan only watched for a while to confirm that his older sister was not among the students of the Primordial Holy Heaven.
But unexpectedly, this glance allowed him to see what the other nine Holy Heaven were doing.
Especially when he saw Fang Sheng throw out three lotus seeds, then mockingly take them back, humiliating the students of the Primordial Holy Heaven, Lin Xuan's eyes darkened slightly. He was no longer willing to watch, nor could he bear to.
Regardless, he was a member of the Primordial Holy Heaven and couldn't possibly sit idly by.
Another one...
The remaining eight Holy Heaven watched coldly and offered sarcastic remarks.
Rather than saying that the Golden Feather Holy Heaven humiliated the people of the Primordial Holy Heaven, it would be more accurate to say that the other eight Holy Heaven tacitly accepted that this was how it should be.
Upon hearing Lin Xuan's confident words, the students of Primordial Holy Heaven were all shaken and looked expectantly in Lin Xuan direction, thinking that their own Holy Master had descended.
But upon seeing Lin Xuan alone, a wave of disappointment washed over them.
Lin Xuan spoke up for them, clearly also from the Primordial Holy Heaven, but... he was just a student with the strength of Heavenly Venerable.
He's not even at the Heavenly Venerable Perfection.
It's not that the Heavenly Venerable's strength is that weak...
Rather, surrounded by the Nine Holy Heaven, whether there is one more Heavenly Venerable Heavenly Venerable or one less, it makes no difference at all!
It's impossible for them to determine the overall situation.
Xiao Yu is also Heavenly Venerable, and even Heavenly Venerable Perfection, yet even he can't make any decisions.
Fang Sheng of the Golden Feather Holy Heaven laughed mockingly upon seeing Lin Xuan.
"I thought it was one of your Primordial Ten Saints, but it turns out to be just another piece of trash."
"Does a mere Celestial Heavenly Venerable dare to offer his opinion?"
"Countless Heavenly Venerable have been defeated by me."
"Ask your Senior Brother Xiao from the Primordial Holy Heaven if he dares to fight me."
He sneered at Xiao Yu, who was injured by his palm strike, his words full of contempt.
The other eight Holy Heaven beings also wore mocking expressions.
Xiao Yu was defeated in a single blow. What was the opponent's advantage?
Those words were practically a provocation against Golden Feather Holy Heaven; they were courting death.
They were well aware of Fang Sheng's strength.
He was at the peak of the Heavenly Venerable Perfection realm, possessing considerable strength. He had already touched the threshold of the Thearch Realm and was the strongest person to retrieve the lotus this time. The others were not as strong as him.
Even the Ten Saints of the Primordial Holy Heaven might not be his match.
This disciple of the Primordial Holy Heaven has dared to provoke Fang Sheng like this; it seems bloodshed is imminent.
Under their watchful eyes, Fang Sheng indeed drew his weapons, his twin blades slicing through the air in a chilling arc. He narrowed his eyes. "What do you think you are...?"
"Die--"
However, he didn't finish his sentence.
Lin Xuan had no patience to listen to this person's ramblings.
His expression turned cold, and he raised his hand to unleash a merciless One Sword, aiming straight for Fang Sheng's head!
Lin Xuan used six-tenths of his strength in this One Sword, holding nothing back.
The Sword-Ray stirred up surging waves, like a raging storm, sweeping towards Fang Sheng. With a crisp sound, the Sword-Ray sliced across his neck, and a thin line of blood instantly devoured his life force, appearing on his head.
A loud thud.
He fell into the swamp below, knife and all, his blood staining a large patch of crimson.
Lin Xuan casually reached out and grabbed the lotus seeds, then tossed them into the mouth of Xuan Bing on his shoulder as if they were candy.
"Awoo~"
Xuan Bing took a happy bite, crunching and chewing, her big, watery deer eyes narrowed, she was extremely happy.
Everyone else on the field fell into a deep silence.
Only Lin Xuan, with a white light drawn by his sword, spoke slowly in front of the toes of the nine Holy Heaven.
"If anyone disagrees, take a step forward."
The entire scene fell silent immediately.
Everyone was stunned and speechless, except for one sentence echoing in their hearts.
How could that be...?
They knew Fang Sheng's strength all too well.
That's Half-Step Thearch Realm who's already touched the threshold of the Thearch Realm!
But he was so easily killed by One Sword strike from a student of the Primordial Holy Heaven!?
This is simply a fantasy!
Not to mention them, even the people of the Primordial Holy Heaven, including Xiao Yu, were filled with disbelief.
When did such a monster appear in their Primordial Holy Heaven Holy Heaven...?
Xiao Yu stared at Lin Xuan in disbelief, subconsciously thinking, "With such strength, he's probably no less powerful than Wan Renshan... This is terrifying!"
At that very moment, almost the instant after Lin Xuan killed Fang Sheng, a terrifying aura swept through the air, carrying fury, and instantly engulfed the entire island in the middle of the lake.
In an instant, everyone's expression changed.
That's the aura of Great Emperor!
