Chapter 2134: Skill
Eastern Town was in the eastern part of Godly Clouds City, hence the name.
It was just a town within the city but it was already gigantic. There were millions of clans and other kinds of influential groups. It was also divided into district. The political situation was complex. Of course, there were few groups at the top. They despised the rest of the city. And the strongest groups were probably backed up by the Shrines so those groups were essential for the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds.
After all, the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds was in the inner part of Godly Clouds City. Not everybody could go there and not everybody could participate to the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. There would have been billions of people otherwise and the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds would have been less interesting.
Precisely for that reason, each time a Shrine organized the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, the strongest groups of the twelve towns had to be strict and check the potential participants.
Of course, most people didn't know what was going on behind the scenes. However, when people came to Godly Clouds City, they always realized it was a mysterious place, a holy place for cultivation. Godly Clouds City had to be an incredible place anyway, the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds took place there. It was easier to keep up-to-date with the news there.
Lin Feng had already released the old man and his granddaughter in town, by doing so, some people had probably noticed him so he had to leave quickly. After that, he left at full speed and now he was walking on the main road. There were people all around. Lin Feng kept glancing around. He had millions of thoughts. How many years had he been practicing cultivation? From the beginning, he would have never thought he'd be walking in the central part of the Continent of the Nine Clouds someday: Godly Clouds City.
"The very center of the continent, how incredible." Lin Feng glanced around, many people looked enigmatic and unfathomable. Emperors looked like insects there. They looked extremely weak. Most children were emperors already there which made Lin Feng speechless. But when he saw the shops on both sides of the street, he also understood that they had more resources than anywhere else in the world.
He was at the top of the Huang Qi layer, for that cultivation level, there were many useful items in shops around him. There were also many auction houses. And the powerful clans in those cities also had incredible items.
Lin Feng looked at people. Many people also looked at him. Of course, more people actually looked at his gigantic beast. For many people, that beast looked even more incredible than Lin Feng, the beast was a Great Imperial Beast and Lin Feng was just an emperor.
But people remained discreet. Nobody tried to offend anyone. They were in Godly Clouds City, not outside. And without knowing someone's background, the best was not to offend them.
"What should you do if you want to participate to the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds?" thought Lin Feng. Even though he didn't know the exact details, he knew that it was impossible to go to the meeting and participate directly. There had to be a selection, otherwise the meeting would have lasted forever. A selection had to be made.
Lin Feng continued walking in the city. He enjoyed the landscapes. An open air restaurant appeared in Lin Feng's field of vision, there were many people chatting on the terrace of the restaurant. Lin Feng smiled and walked over. Restaurants were perfect places to learn about the news.
Lin Feng went to a table and listened to what people were talking about. He learnt about important news in Godly Clouds City.
For example, an extremely strong young person from a clan of doctors had fought against some foreigners. They had bet on pellets and the foreigners had surprisingly won. Many people were stupefied. The clan was famous in Godly Clouds City and their young people were extremely strong, but surprisingly, that young person had lost. It was said that they intended to fight again to regain face.
After that, he heard people talk about those young people who had challenged the young person from Godly Clouds City. They were actually from a very powerful clan of doctors from Red Clouds. They were extremely strong, ambitious and proud. That's why they dared challenge extremely strong cultivators from Godly Clouds City. They made Red Clouds seem even more prestigious. The news spread everywhere in Godly Clouds City. That's why many people talked about it.
Of course, people talked about it because both sides were extremely strong too. Actually, many foreigners challenged people from Godly Clouds City. And people from Godly Clouds City itself were inherently proud and arrogant. Their clans had existed for such a long time in Godly Clouds City. Most foreigners didn't dare challenge people from Godly Clouds City. However, it couldn't be denied that people who came to Godly Clouds City were extremely strong and talented. Some of them were extraordinary. Their clans were all extraordinary in the different regions of the continent.
Lin Feng perfectly understood those things. If anyone tried to provoke Wu Jue, the thirteen Young Beast Masters from the Animal District, Chu Chun Qiu or Saint Tianhun in Godly Clouds City, would they accept to submit to humiliation? The best was to protect oneself but not to kill the young people from powerful clans of Godly Clouds City, if their young people didn't die, then their clans could say anything either.
In the restaurant, Lin Feng regretted that he hadn't made You You come out. You You was in his spirit's world with his family. She was relaxed. Sometimes, she practiced cultivation to make her cultivation stable, after all, she hadn't reached such a cultivation level relying on her own abilities, she had been granted with powers, a terrifyingly strong cultivator had sacrificed themselves for her. She had to work on her cultivation constantly to make it stable.
"This time, the Destiny Shrine is in charge of organizing the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. The twenty towns chose four groups of influence as an entrance. Selected people have the competences to participate to the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. There will be many geniuses from Ancient Holy Clans."
"Of course. There are so many strong cultivators in Godly Clouds City, you can't underestimate any of them. If only one group had selected candidates, it wouldn't have worked. If you go to the different groups, they can either recommend you or not, that way, many people will be eliminated."
"Yes, but those who aren't chosen by Shrines aren't happy." said someone smiling.
"Are you talking about the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan?" said someone.
"Of course. The Deva-Mara Thunder Clan is really strong. They've always been a powerful group of the Eastern Town. They're terrifyingly strong. However, they haven't been chosen by the shrine so they are disappointed."
"A clan which relies on physical strength can't succeed. They were not taken into consideration, that's normal." said someone in an cold way. Many people giggled, they didn't contradict him. People from the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan had a terrifying physical strength.
"Kacha!" At that moment, some sound spread in the air, people were startled and turned around, they saw someone wearing a black cloak, he looked furious and released a terrifying Qi which invaded the atmosphere.
"Really insolent!" said that person in an ice-cold way: "The Destiny Shrine chose people as they wished, it doesn't mean clans they haven't chosen aren't strong enough. If you dare talk nonsense here again, don't blame me for not being polite."
His bones and muscles emitted crackling sounds. He kicked a table which instantly exploded and turned to dust.
"He's from the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan." the crowd frowned. Those who had just talked felt cold. They didn't dare say anything anymore. The Deva-Mara Thunder Clan was powerful.
"What? It's forbidden to talk here? said someone else at that moment. He looked bestial and ice-cold. He still had his glass in his hand.
"It's the one who just criticized the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan." thought the crowd. The person from the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan looked at him and said in an ice-cold way: "Which animal clan has such insolent little beasts?"
"Beast?" the crowd looked at the young person. His interlocutor put his glass down. He actually did look like a beast.
"Show me how physically strong the members of the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan are." said that person, then he stood up. The young person of the Deva-Mara Thunder Clan jumped, the atmosphere became oppressive. He shouted explosively. Terrifying Kalpa lights illuminated the atmosphere. Black thunders moved towards the animal at full speed like millions of snakes.
"What a powerful Qi, that's an aggressive skill."
Suddenly, an armor made of scales appeared around the bestial young man. He looked ferocious. His physical strength was incredible. It was a dragon-rhinoceros.
The two fighters collided. Their energies blotted out the sky. People were talking about battles just before, they hadn't thought they'd see one so quickly. Lin Feng was stupefied. He looked at the sky and saw dazzling Kalpa lights.
"Kalpa Indestrutible Deva-Mara Skill." Lin Feng's eyes twinkled. The Deva-Mara Thunder Clan practiced the same skill as him, or more precisely, the skill he was studying probably came from that clan!
