Chapter 134

Lin Bunfan stood below, circulating his spiritual power and shouted loudly.

His face full of anxiety.

His shout also drew a response from many failures around him.

"Can we still play like this?"

"Exactly! Our talents aren't bad; why can't we get a chance to show our strength?"

Immediately they all echoed, following the crowd.

"Please, mighty ones of the Emperor Sect, grant us a chance to display our strength."

Of course, many cultivators looked down on them, moving away and keeping distance.

"What kind of people are these!"

Upon closer look, there were actually many from the Central Region's major powers; you've lost all face for those powers!

No wonder they can't pass the first level's Illusory Heavenly Ladder; with such mindset, doing menial work in the Emperor Sect, nobody would want them.

"Noisy!"

"Who's barking like a dog!"

"Get out here for the Emperor!"

The Black Emperor roared, and his mighty imperial aura shot up to the heavens.

In an instant he flew down, arriving before this group, hovering in midair, looking down on them from above.

Tens of thousands of cultivators immediately kowtowed, pressed to the ground by the overwhelming pressure, trembling.

"Who dares to disagree?"

"You? You?? Or you!"

The Black Emperor's dignified voice rang out, and he pointed with his claws at several cultivators in front.

Upon hearing this, Lin Bunfan quickly forced himself to lift his head.

With voice and tears streaming, he said: "Emperor... Lord, I am the heir of the Central Region's Lin clan, I am Lin Bunfan; please grant me a chance to show my strength."

"My beloved is already a disciple of your sect; if we were separated, I would be heartbroken and unable to sleep."

"Please show mercy; my Lin clan will surely offer generous gifts."

The Black Emperor listened to the youth lying at the front, then pondered briefly.

He recalled that the Central Region's Lin clan seemed indeed familiar; back then they were also his loyal servants.

"People of the Central Region Lin clan? I, the Emperor, seem to have some impression."

"Your Lin clan's ancestor, over a hundred thousand years ago, served as my lackey, the Supreme Ultimate Lin Gou Sheng, right?"

"But how could ten thousand years have passed, and this Lin clan junior be so worthless, utterly disgracing its former prestige!"

"Ah? Emperor Lord, you know our ancestor?"

Lin Bunfan was also dazed; he had never heard of this before, meaning his Lin clan still had ties with the Azure Cloud Emperor Sect.

"Then couldn't I just go through the back door and see Xuan'er!"

Lin Bunfan was overjoyed; whether he joined the Emperor Sect or not didn't matter, as long as he could see Xuan'er.

"So what if you know them? You worthless wretch, still daring to mention the Lin clan—you can't even pass this simple Illusory Heavenly Ladder; why are you still alive?"

The Black Emperor floating in midair said nothing, no longer bothering with this junior.

Afterwards he revealed a fierce gaze, scanning the tens of thousands of unwilling cultivators bowing here.

"How? Do you now dare to question the rules of my Azure Cloud Sect?"

"I, the Emperor, tell you: across the entire Wilderness Martial Continent, the rules of my Azure Cloud Sect are the rules; who dares not obey!"

For a moment, silence fell below; everyone lowered their heads.

In their hearts they blamed that Lin clan youth: "What are you doing? Who do you think you are!"

"Madebai followed you in making a fuss; now if the Emperor Sect notices us, our family is doomed."

"Emperor Lord, junior Lin Bunfan at least ranks among the top hundred prodigies of the Five Regions; please give me a chance to show my strength."

"My ancestor is now sealed, in closed-door meditation; I beg you, for the sake of your old acquaintance with my ancestor, to help this junior."

Lin Bunfan continued to plead, gnashing his teeth.

He had not a shred of a prodigy's bearing.

Just as that cultivator said earlier, they have utterly lost face for the Central Region's major powers.

"Fine, you want to bring disgrace upon yourself, right?"

"Then I, the Emperor, will grant your wish."

"Get up here!"

With a single grasp, the Black Emperor in midair sucked Lin Bunfan up, suspending him in the air as person and dog tore through the void.

The Black Emperor is just one who hates iron for not becoming steel; he is fierce and cold toward outsiders, and has slaughtered many who provoke his power.

Yet for a close friend he would stab both ribs; although that Lin clan ancestor was merely his loyal lackey a hundred thousand years ago.

But he also followed it for thirty thousand years, from the initial shattered void all the way to Supreme Ultimate; he just didn't expect this little fellow's junior to be so worthless.

Outside the Azure Cloud Sect, battle intent soared to the heavens.

On the three battlefields, the Azure Cloud Sect's inner and outer disciples swept all before them, and so far no cultivator has passed.

On the largest drill platform, Qin Han, dressed in inner disciple attire, stood with hands behind his back, indifferently gazing at the brocade-clad youth and woman ahead.

"Here they come, here they come!"

"The main event is here! The prodigy Wang Yun of the Central Region's taboo Wang clan and Yun Meng Luo of the Hun Tian God Nation's Yun clan."

Outside the sect, a handsome young man in white robes watching exclaimed.

"I had noticed these two earlier; now they finally fought, I must jot down the details of these prodigies' battle in a little notebook!"

The cultivators gathered around asked, "Brother, do you know both of these people? You're also a heaven's pride from the Central Region, right? Tell us about these two!"

Hearing the question from beside him, the speaking man continued, "Sigh, what heaven's pride, not heaven's pride."

"I hadn't even gotten a chance to circulate my technique when an outer-disciple senior brother knocked me off the stage with one palm, and now they want to invite me to join some Blasting Heaven Sect."

Everyone felt deeply moved by those words; basically, a single palm strike would knock oneself off the martial arts stage.

"Yeah, these senior brothers are really ruthless! They're not here to test us; they're just trying to crush our morale."

The white-clothed man paused, seeing everyone interested, then continued, "The man on the stage is Wang Yun, ranked in the top fifty on the Heaven's Pride Ranking, twenty-three years old in bone age, having reached early Transformation Spirit cultivation."

"The woman in the purple silk skirt is called Yun Mengluo, twenty-one years old in bone age, also having reached early Transformation Spirit, with even greater talent, ranked higher than Wang Yun on the Heaven's Pride Ranking."

"Hiss! Twenty-one years old, early Transformation Spirit!"

"Bullshit! This is the real heaven's pride! I don't know if this inner-disciple senior brother can handle a two-on-one."

"Right, brother, I've never heard of the taboo clan Wang Clan, but Yun Mengluo… Senior Sister, which major power is the famous Chaos Heaven God Nation she belongs to?"

The white-clothed man, upon hearing this, clasped his hands behind his back again and said, "Exactly, it's the Chaos Heaven God Nation ruled by Empress Lin Yao, the major power that holds sway over the Central Region."

Upon hearing that, everyone turned their gaze to the stage.

The heaven's pride from the Chaos Heaven God Nation and our own inner-disciple senior brother—this fight will surely be exciting.

On the stage.

The black-robed Wang Yun courteously said first, "I am Wang Yun of the Wang Clan from the Central Region; greetings, senior brother."

After speaking, Wang Yun cautiously sized up the senior brother ahead.

At a glance, he couldn't see through him, and his confidence instantly vanished.

He thought, "The heaven's pride of the Imperial Sect is indeed extraordinary."

"'Yun Mengluo of the Yun Clan from the Chaos Heaven God Nation,' the woman in purple robes also said calmly."

Her beautiful eyes turned, and after similarly sizing him up, her brows furrowed.

"What's going on? I actually can't see through him!"

"'Chaos Heaven God Nation?'"
