Chapter 1683: Arriving at the Sea of Chaos
Because they had long been prepared to participate in the Heavenly Gate Competition, the Holy Moon Hall had everything ready, and they set off as soon as they assembled their troops.
This group was extremely powerful, led by Fairy Nishang, with three peak Immortal Venerable cultivators, four late-stage Immortal Venerable cultivators, plus Xu Que, a cultivator who was mid-stage Immortal Venerable on the surface but whose actual combat power had already surpassed the peak of the Immortal Venerable Realm.
Such a lineup could completely run rampant if placed in the Heavenly Continent.
Because this Divine Trial Ground was specially set up by gods for future generations to trial, there were no restrictions on cultivation levels, only requirements on the number of people.
Each side was not allowed to enter with more than seven people.
Each Immortal Realm had twelve disciples, so participating in the Heavenly Gate Competition meant each side only had seven participating contestants.
As for the other disciples, either they didn't want to participate, or there weren't enough spots, so they could only wait outside.
About a day later, everyone arrived at the Divine Trial Ground.
The trial ground was located at the border of the True Eternal Immortal Realm, which was also the border of the other three Immortal Realms, a place known as the Sea of Chaos.
Because it was located at the common junction of the four Immortal Realms, it was not under the jurisdiction of the four Immortal Realms.
A large number of demonic cultivators, or those who were notorious in the Immortal Realms, all gathered here.
There were no rules here, only the rule that strength was respected.
But because of the appearance of the Divine Trial Ground, people from all sides gathered here, and those cultivators who were originally free and unrestrained suddenly felt miserable.
Even though their cultivation levels were not low, they were unfortunately facing top figures from all sides; any one of them picked out could hang them up and beat them.
Forced by helplessness, they had to flee to other places, filled with resentment.
When Xu Que and his group arrived, cultivators from the other three Immortal Realms were already waiting here, just waiting for the cultivators of the True Eternal Immortal Realm to arrive to open the entrance to the Sea of Chaos.
The cultivators present were clearly divided into four camps. Xu Que did not sense the auras of Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude among these people, and when he contacted Er Gouzi with his communication jade, there was no response.
Although the Sea of Chaos had the word "sea," it was not a sea; it was most appropriate to describe it as a chaotic void.
The spatial power here was extremely violent, and even for Immortal Venerable Realm cultivators, walking in it was quite difficult.
And floating in this void were huge rocks from unknown origins, enough for thousands of cultivators to live on.
Those cultivators from the past lived on these rocks.
Led by Fairy Nishang, everyone landed on one of the rocks. Looking out, it was desolate, and only in the farthest distance was there a huge black vortex.
Outside this vortex were the cultivators of the four Immortal Realms, sitting in various places, waiting for the Heavenly Gate Competition to begin.
"Damn it, whoever has information on Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude, I'll pay a high price for it!" a burly man suddenly shouted. "I was almost tricked to death by these two on my way here!"
As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately drew a response from the crowd.
"I'll pay too!"
"Don't mention it, this is my teleportation array. If you meet these two, summon me immediately! I swear to smash them into ten thousand pieces!"
"Fellow Daoist, count me in. These two are simply too bullying! What kind of organization is the Exploding Heaven Gang? How can it have such shameless members?"
Xu Que chanted a Buddha name and silently stood behind Fairy Nishang.
My god, this is simply being surrounded on all sides...
Xu Que did not doubt at all that if he revealed that he was from the Exploding Heaven Gang at this time, he would probably be torn into pieces by these angry cultivators immediately.
What exactly did those two scoundrels, Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude, do to these people...
Out of curiosity, Xu Que asked the Holy Moon Hall cultivators to help him find out.
The information he got was simply jaw-dropping.
During the time he stayed in the Holy Moon Hall, Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude had almost run rampant through the four Heavenly Gates, causing harm to countless sects.
Not only did they steal from people's treasure vaults, but they also kidnapped other people's disciples for blackmail and extortion.
At the same time, they also sold fake treasure maps, scamming many people until they cried for their fathers and mothers.
"Master Tang, these Er Gouzi and Duan Jiude are simply extremely abominable," a female cultivator said indignantly. "Compared to you, Master Tang, they are simply like the bright moon and fireflies!"
"Amitabha, Benefactor, you flatter me. This poor monk is just filled with a sense of justice in his heart."
Xu Que curled his lips in his heart. What kind of cultural level is this? According to you, those two are scammers, doesn't that mean he is an even bigger scammer?
Everyone came to the black vortex, and cultivators immediately came to greet them.
After all, the Holy Moon Hall was a major force in the True Eternal Immortal Realm, and Fairy Nishang was famous in the Immortal Cloud Continent. No matter how arrogant the cultivators participating in the Heavenly Gate Competition were, they still had to take the initiative to pay their respects.
However, many cultivators found it strange that Fairy Nishang had arrived.
After all, back then, Fairy Nishang had voluntarily given up her qualification to participate in the Heavenly Gate Competition and chose to become the head senior sister of the Holy Moon Hall.
She usually lived in seclusion in the hall, and as fellow disciples of the Immortal Emperor, many people had actually never seen Fairy Nishang.
And Fairy Nishang also made these cultivators' eyes light up. Her temperament was extraordinary and refined, and her appearance was clear and dust-free. Whether it was cultivation or appearance, she was one of the best among the disciples.
"I didn't expect that Fairy Nishang would come in person this time. It is truly our honor to see her."
"Legend has it that the head senior sister of the Holy Moon Hall has supreme cultivation and an extraordinary appearance. She is truly the object of our pursuit."
"I heard that the female cultivators in the Holy Moon Hall are all stunning. Seeing them today, it is truly well-deserved."
"Wait, why is there a bald head in the Holy Moon Hall? Is that a monk?"
"It seems to be true... Since when did the Holy Moon Hall recruit monks?"
"Didn't they say that the Holy Moon Hall stopped recruiting male disciples a few years ago? So it turns out you can join if you become a monk. Damn it, I didn't think of that."
Everyone was originally flattering Fairy Nishang, but soon, their gazes were attracted by that shiny bald head.
The key was that this monk seemed to have a high status, surrounded by several female disciples of the Holy Moon Hall.
It was simply enviable!
"What's the situation?"
"What is the background of this monk?"
"Wait, I heard that a Buddha Son from the Buddhist Sect visited the Holy Moon Hall recently. Could it be him?"
"Are you talking about the Buddha Son who slept with all the Holy Moon Hall?"
"Where did you get that information? I heard that the Buddha Son slept with Dong Wuqi, and the two fell in love over time and became Dao companions."
"Damn! Your information is even less reliable!"
"I..."
Listening to everyone's discussion, Xu Que vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Damn, listening to the outrageous degree of these rumors, why does it feel like it has the style of that guy Er Gouzi?
