After returning from the Master's place, Xiao Yun began to cultivate two super combat techniques, "Divine Wind Step" and "Ten Thousand Blades Return to the Sea."
Before starting the cultivation, Xiao Yun checked his system.
He found that he still had 26 instances of enlightenment.
The reason for the increase was that he had previously tested his strength with Lin Xiaoya at the Starry Pavilion, and he had completed another "showing off" act, which earned him three instances of enlightenment as a reward.
"26 instances of enlightenment are enough for me to use temporarily."
Xiao Yun immediately used one instance of enlightenment and entered a state of enlightenment to begin practicing the "Divine Wind Step."
In a short while, the hall was filled with Xiao Yun's afterimages.
Obviously, he had already cultivated the "Divine Wind Step" to a perfect state.
After completing the cultivation of the "Divine Wind Step," Xiao Yun used another instance of enlightenment and began practicing the "Ten Thousand Blades Return to the Sea."
Not long after, Xiao Yun replaced the blade with his palm and cleaved forward. Countless blade shadows converged, forming a shocking divine blade that struck forward, cutting the pillars in the hall in half. Its power was extremely astonishing.
There was no doubt that he had also cultivated the "Ten Thousand Blades Return to the Sea" to a perfect state.
Only one day had passed, and Xiao Yun had already cultivated both super combat techniques to perfection. If this news spread, the entire Chaos Holy Land would be in an uproar.
"I still have 24 instances of enlightenment left. However, I can test my combat power at the Starry Pavilion and earn another three instances of enlightenment."
After completing the cultivation of the two super combat techniques, Xiao Yun checked his system and secretly thought.
But he didn't immediately go to the Starry Pavilion. He planned to go there after a month, as he had just shown off and needed some rest.
Moreover, within a single day, he had mastered two super combat techniques, which was truly shocking. It would be hard for people to resist dissecting him, so it would be better to wait for a month.
...
One month later.
Three unexpected guests arrived outside the Chaos Holy Land. They were an elderly man with graying hair and a youthful appearance, a young girl in a red dress, and a young man in a white robe.
The elderly man in the gray robe looked at the gate of the Chaos Holy Land and smiled, saying, "Wan Yanghui, emissary of the Tai Chu Holy Land, has come to visit the Chaos Holy Land on the orders of the Holy Lord."
"Boom!"
The void cracked open, and a figure resembling a divine being stepped through the air towards Wan Yanghui and said, "So it's Brother Wan. It has been many years. Your demeanor is still extraordinary!"
The person who arrived was the Elder Tianyi.
The reason he, the second-ranked Elder, was sent to receive the guests was that the Lord of the Chaos Holy Land noticed that Wan Yanghui possessed considerable strength, having reached the Heavenly Realm. If others were sent to welcome him, it would likely damage the reputation of the Chaos Holy Land.
Only Tianyi, who was at the half-step Heavenly Realm, could barely maintain the dignity of the Chaos Holy Land.
As expected.
Upon seeing Elder Tianyi, Wan Yanghui couldn't help but smile and say, "So it's Brother Tianyi. I see that Brother Tianyi's power is formidable, and I'm afraid you have already reached the half-step Heavenly Realm. Soon, you will step into the Heavenly Realm. It's truly a joyous occasion. You deserve to be the second-ranked Elder of the Chaos Holy Land!"
A slight smirk appeared at the corner of Tianyi's mouth, and then he modestly replied, "Brother, you overpraise me. I am still far behind compared to Brother Wan."
At this moment, a girl in a red dress behind Wan Yanghui murmured, "The second-ranked Elder is only at the half-step Heavenly Realm. In our Tai Chu Holy Land, even those who don't make it into the top ten can surpass him. It seems that the Chaos Holy Land has indeed declined."
Although her voice was low, Tianyi and Wan Yanghui were both powerful individuals and immediately heard her.
Instantly, Tianyi's face turned pitch black, and his expression became incredibly gloomy.
Wan Yanghui, on the other hand, pretended to scold her, saying, "Shut up!"
The girl in the red dress immediately lowered her head.
Wan Yanghui looked at the gloomy-faced Tianyi and couldn't help but apologize, "Brother Tianyi, the young disciple is still young and ignorant. I hope you won't mind."
"Take no offense at a child's babble!" Tianyi said lightly, but he felt extremely frustrated. He vowed to go into seclusion as soon as he returned and not come out until he reached the Heavenly Realm.
"Brother Wan, please follow me. I will take you to meet the Lord!" Tianyi immediately led the way, no longer in the mood to converse with Wan Yanghui.
After the group entered the Chaos Holy Land, they soon arrived at a grand hall.
Inside the hall were the Lord of the Chaos Holy Land and several other Elders, who had been waiting there.
At this moment, the Elders were in conversation with the Lord of the Chaos Holy Land.
"The Tai Chu Holy Land has sent people without any explanation. I wonder what they want?"
"I'm afraid they are inviting us to the imminent opening of the True Dragon Nest. They don't have good intentions."
"In the past, none of our disciples were qualified to enter the True Dragon Nest. However, in this generation, our Chaos Holy Land has produced Xiao Yun. It is said that he recently tested his strength at the Starry Pavilion and reached a force of 300,000 catties, stepping into the Second Forbidden Domain. He is definitely qualified to enter the True Dragon Nest."
"The Second Forbidden Domain is still somewhat of a stretch. Unlike other sects, our Chaos Holy Land, as one of the Holy Lands, is watched by practitioners from all over the world. Once Xiao Yun enters the True Dragon Nest, he will undoubtedly be targeted by those top-notch geniuses. Compared to them, he still falls far behind with only the Second Forbidden Domain."
The hall was filled with discussions and murmurs.
Suddenly, the Lord of the Chaos Sanctuary spoke up, "Quiet, they have arrived."
As soon as he finished speaking, Tianyi entered the hall to report.
Following that, Wanyang Hui led two young people into the hall and bowed to the Lord of the Chaos Sanctuary, saying, "Wanyang Hui pays respects to the Lord of the Chaos Sanctuary and wishes for the Lord to ascend to the sacred position soon."
Upon hearing these words, the expressions of the people in the hall turned sour.
Originally, these were just flattering words. If they were said to the other senior elders, it would definitely make them delighted and wear a smile on their faces.
But the object of these words was the Lord of the Chaos Sanctuary, and that made a difference.
It was well known that the other five Lords of the Great Sanctuaries had already reached the realm of the Saint. Only the Lord of the Chaos Sanctuary was still trapped in the Heavenly Realm.
These words, spoken to the Lord of the Chaos Sanctuary, seemed like kind words on the surface but subtly pointed out the fact that the Lord of the Chaos Sanctuary was inferior to the other five Lords, causing the people of the Chaos Sanctuary to lose face.
However, despite their anger, the Lord of the Chaos Sanctuary and a few senior elders restrained their fury. After all, it was a flattering remark, and if they were to obsess over its hidden meaning, it would appear petty.
The Lord of the Chaos Sanctuary looked at Wanyang Hui below and smiled faintly, "Friend Wanyang, there's no need for so much courtesy. I wonder why you have come here?"
Wanyang Hui clasped his fists and immediately said, "I have come on behalf of our Lord to invite the Chaos Sanctuary to participate in next year's True Dragon Nest Covenant."
Upon hearing these words, the high-ranking members of the Chaos Sanctuary in the hall couldn't help but sneer inwardly. It seemed that their suspicions were correct.
At that moment, Wanyang Hui continued, "In addition, I have brought two young disciples from our Tai Chu Sanctuary to engage in exchanges and learn from the outstanding disciples of the Chaos Sanctuary, allowing them to broaden their horizons."
Upon hearing Wanyang Hui's words, everyone's gaze turned towards the pair of young men and women behind him.
With just one glance, the faces of the people turned gloomy.
With their discerning eyes, they could easily see that this pair of young men and women were extraordinary. It was feared that within the same realm, the Chaos Sanctuary would hardly find anyone who could compete with them.
The Lord of the Chaos Sanctuary pondered for a moment and then said, "Send someone to summon Xiao Yun, Chu Jingxiao, and Lin Xiaoya."
The senior elders in the hall nodded. Currently, among the Chaos Sanctuary's physical cultivation realm, only these three had reached the peak. Bringing them over, even if they couldn't win, they could at least maintain their dignity.
Moreover, with Xiao Yun present, they would be able to win at least one round, avoiding a too embarrassing defeat.
