Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

The Elder Hall of the Eternal Ancient Academy suddenly fell silent.

Ninth Elder's expression slightly darkened as he said, "I object! The Fifth Elder's proposal is inappropriate. Given Jun Wuxie's character, he wouldn't proactively cause trouble. If there are conflicts, it would be the Sea Clan's prodigies who initiate them. What reason do we have to help the Sea Clan suppress him?"

"Old Ninth, we are discussing the big picture here, but you are talking about right and wrong, putting the cart before the horse," Fifth Elder said sternly. "With the arrival of each Great Era, the Emperor Beginning Star becomes the target of various ancient life stars. For several epochs, the living beings on this ancient star have suffered bullying in the Great Era. We cannot repeat the same mistakes in this era."

"I agree with the Fifth Elder's proposal," Fourth Elder nodded, saying, "In the face of the big picture, right and wrong are not that important. Besides, we are not targeting him. If Shao Jiuying and Xuan Yuan are defeated in a conflict, we will step in appropriately to suppress him. The purpose is only to prevent him from cutting off Shao Jiuying and Xuan Yuan's path to growth."

Ninth Elder's expression darkened slightly, and he said, "Do you think that Shao Jiuying and Xuan Yuan alone can reverse the situation in the battle for the Heavenly Throne?"

"Having two more amazingly talented prodigies will always add a bit more hope."

Fifth Elder said this.

"Grand Elder."

Ninth Elder looked at the leading elder. The Grand Elder was the pinnacle of power in the Eternal Ancient Academy.

The other elders also looked at him.

However, the Grand Elder's expression was calm, and he did not express any opinions on this, only saying, "The people from the Tong Sheng Ancient Mansion are about to arrive, and the most mysterious Qiwenzhou (Mysterious Tales Pavilion) in the universe will also send people. You should contact Qiwenzhou as soon as possible using ancient methods, and have them transmit the special communication runes that connect the major ancient life stars in the starry sky. Make them into Starry Sky Communicators and distribute them to the students. It's time for them to understand the affairs outside the region."

Ninth Elder was stunned. The Grand Elder avoided the Fourth and Fifth Elders' proposal to suppress Jun Wuxie.

His silence meant tacit consent in public.

But he didn't believe that the Grand Elder would be so muddled-headed.

They knew each other well. Everyone knew the origins of the Fourth and Fifth Elders. Such a proposal was unfair, clearly favoring the Sea Clan.

"Yes, the universe is vast, and what they know is limited to the Emperor Beginning Star. Now they have to face cultivators from outside the region. They should indeed have some understanding of the outside world,"

Second Elder said this, and the other elders all nodded.

The Grand Elder avoided the proposal to suppress Jun Wuxie, so naturally they would not mention it again.

"The changes in the Great Era are rapid. We should also spread the special runes of the Qiwenzhou to the world as soon as possible, so that people all over the world can make Starry Sky Communicators. According to the prophecy, this will be the last era experienced by the living beings. The brilliant Great Era may also be the real end of the world, ending everything, and there will be no future era…"

The Grand Elder's expression became solemn upon hearing this, and he said, "Yes, this may be the last era. We have been competing with the Tong Sheng Ancient Mansion for the Heavenly Throne for several epochs. If there is hope of winning in this era, it can be regarded as cheering for the living beings of this ancient star, allowing them to witness that glorious moment with their own eyes. Also, urge the prodigies of those six ancient life stars. Our time is precious and cannot be wasted waiting for them."

"We will handle this matter personally."

Seventh Elder and Eighth Elder stood up and walked out of the hall one after another.

"Let's dismiss the meeting. You few go and prepare for the opening of the extraterrestrial ruins, and strive to open the passage to the ruins within fifteen days."

Several elders nodded and left the Elder Hall, leaving only the Grand Elder, Second Elder, and Ninth Elder here.

"Old Ninth, what are you worried about?"

Second Elder looked at Ninth Elder with a faint smile on his face.

"Grand Elder, your public acquiescence to suppressing Jun Wuxie may anger him. At that time, I think we should just give up on competing for the Heavenly Throne and admit defeat," Ninth Elder said with displeasure.

"Old Ninth, even if I object, do you think they won't secretly favor the Sea Clan's prodigies? This is unavoidable. The blood of the Sea Clan's royal family flows in their bodies," Grand Elder smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't let Jun Wuxie feel that he has been treated unfairly."

Second Elder said, "The two of them have deep feelings for the Sea Clan. If we forcibly object and don't let them do something, I'm afraid it will cause internal divisions. We must first stabilize them. As long as they don't go too far, we shouldn't interfere on the surface."

…

At the same time, on Gathering Spirit Peak, after confirming the cave dwellings assigned to them by the ancient academy, the Sea Clan prodigies successively activated the restrictions and entered the cave dwellings to cultivate.

Shao Jiuying and Xuan Yuan stood in front of the cave dwellings, their faces gloomy, with anger burning in their eyes.

"This is outrageous! They actually look down on us so much!"

Shao Jiuying's rhombus-shaped pupils were terrifying. One contained turbulent water, and the other contained raging flames.

A chill released from his body, quickly spreading out, causing the Sea Clan prodigies in the surrounding cave dwellings to feel an extreme coldness, and they walked out of the cave dwellings one after another.

"Shao Jiuying, are you dissatisfied with the cave dwellings allocated by our ancient academy?"

The ancient academy protector who brought him and Xuan Yuan here said this.

"Hmph! Let alone him being dissatisfied, I, Xuan Yuan, am also dissatisfied!" Xuan Yuan stood in front of another cave dwelling a hundred meters away, his face livid, pointing to those cave dwellings in the distance, and said, "The most abundant spiritual energy on the entire Gathering Spirit Peak is in those few cave dwellings. May I ask who they belong to?"

"Jun Wuxie, Yan Qingcheng, Mu Yunxi."

The ancient academy protector did not hide it.

"Why?" Shao Jiuying's eyes flashed with cold light in an instant: "What qualifications do they have? The spiritual energy in the cave dwellings of that Yan Qingcheng and Mu Yunxi is actually more abundant than ours, it's simply a joke! Is this fair of the Eternal Ancient Academy?"

"We want to change cave dwellings, we want the cave dwellings of that Yan Qingcheng and Mu Yunxi!"

Xuan Yuan was very strong, and after speaking, he walked directly towards those two cave dwellings.

"Since your distribution is unfair, then we will take it ourselves!"

Shao Jiuying sneered and followed Xuan Yuan, landing in front of Yan Qingcheng and Mu Yunxi's cave dwellings respectively.

"The two of you must not act recklessly."

The ancient academy protector's expression darkened slightly, and he flashed between the two of them, saying, "The cave dwellings are allocated by our ancient academy, how can you arbitrarily choose? Each cave dwelling has different restrictions. Even if you want them, you can't enter. Go back to your cave dwellings and stop making trouble."

"We are determined to have these two cave dwellings!"

Shao Jiuying and Xuan Yuan were extremely tough: "We come to the Eternal Ancient Academy to obtain better resources! These Gathering Spirit cave dwellings are one of them! The abundance of spiritual energy will directly affect the cultivation speed and the growth intensity of talent! Good cave dwellings are obtained by the capable. They are not qualified, just two human women!"

The protector shook his head and said, "Compared to these two cave dwellings, the difference in the abundance of spiritual energy in your cave dwellings will not affect the speed of realm improvement. As for the growth intensity of talent, you are the royal family of the sea, and the awakening degree of your bloodline naturally increases with realm breakthroughs, which is different from humans. Yan Qingcheng and Mu Yunxi, although they have the blood of ancient gods, need to fuse more origins to further stimulate the blood of ancient gods. Our ancient academy hopes that you will grow evenly, so we made this arrangement. Stop making trouble."

At this time, Jun Wuxie and Ji Yinlan also came out of the cave dwelling after hearing the noise. Seeing Shao Jiuying and Xuan Yuan standing in front of Yan Qingcheng and Mu Yunxi's cave dwellings, they responded to the ancient academy protector with a tough attitude: "What does it have to do with us that humans are not qualified to enjoy such preferential treatment!"

The protector was a little impatient and said, "Go back, it's useless for you to make trouble here. Yan Qingcheng and Mu Yunxi are receiving the Holy Power baptism in the Holy Palace and are not in the cave dwellings."

"Oh, not in the cave dwellings?" Xuan Yuan said coldly: "Then I will wait here for her to come back. When the time comes, she will either get out of this cave dwelling, or I will throw her out!"

Shao Jiuying laughed wildly upon hearing this: "This method is good, but it's not impossible for them to live with us if they are willing, hahaha!"

After speaking, the two looked at Jun Wuxie at the same time, their eyes full of provocation.

They had been holding back a bellyful of anger in front of the ancient academy's mountain gate and wanted to vent it.

Jun Wuxie's expression was originally very calm, thinking that this was a distribution problem of the Eternal Ancient Academy and letting the ancient academy handle it themselves.

He didn't expect that these two young supreme beings of the Sea Clan dared to speak rudely. His gaze instantly turned cold, and he took a step forward to clean them up, but a soft hand grabbed him.

"Let me do it."

Ji Yinlan stared at him with clear eyes.

Jun Wuxie's eyes twitched, the killing intent in his body was already boiling, but seeing Ji Yinlan's gaze, he took a deep breath and nodded.

"Oh, Ji Yinlan, do you want to give the cave dwelling to us? Or are you saying that you want to live with us?"

Xuan Yuan spoke frivolous words. He wanted to flirt with his woman in front of Jun Wuxie!

What if he easily defeated Jiao Wujie?

That Jiao Wujie had not completed the Saint Sect Great Tribulation and was only a half-step Saint Sect, which was a huge gap from the Saint Sect.

He and Shao Jiuying were both Saint Sect Three Transformations powerhouses, and the growth intensity of their bloodlines was also higher than that of Jiao Wujie.

The Sea Clan had completely lost face, how could they not find a reason to regain face!

Earlier, that kid had Heavenly Tribulation on his body, so they were naturally unwilling to fight him, but now that the Heavenly Tribulation was gone, there was nothing to stop their will to suppress the Human Chaos Body!

"You want to anger my man, you have succeeded, but you are not qualified to fight him, unworthy!"

Ji Yinlan's cold voice resounded throughout Gathering Spirit Peak. She stepped towards Xuan Yuan and Shao Jiuying, and a terrifying aura condensed on her body. An ancient sword flew out from her body, surrounded by cold light, flowing with runes, and exuding a hint of unspeakable majesty.

Xuan Yuan and Shao Jiuying's faces suddenly turned ashen, and their snake-shaped eyes were terribly cold.

"Ji Yinlan, you are just a human woman, how dare you speak wildly, even the Human Chaos Body behind you is not qualified to be arrogant in front of us!"

Xuan Yuan soared into the sky, standing high above and looking down. Xuan Water True Qi surged like a tsunami, its aura overwhelming and suffocating.

Behind him, the Xuan Water True Qi condensed into a boiling ocean, a massive Xuan Serpent Divine Form manifested, half of its body rising from the surging ocean, reaching a thousand meters in height. The Xuan Serpent's body was covered in fleshy barbs, its snake head lowered, spitting out a scarlet snake tongue.

“Come up and fight! I will suppress you, one of the strongest young generation geniuses of the human race, within three exchanges!”

Xuan Yuan's voice shook the ancient courtyard like thunder, distorting the surrounding void, and directly shattering the clouds in the sky.

The geniuses of the human race and the sea race were all alarmed. Except for Mu Yuning and others who had activated restrictions to isolate themselves from interference, the rest all rushed out of their caves and looked towards the high sky.

Rumble!

Xuan Yuan's Xuan Water True Qi was as violent as a mountain torrent, submerging the ten directions of the sky.

He stood in the ocean-like True Qi, the thousand-meter Xuan Serpent behind him standing tall, roaring, its primordial aura billowing, covering the sky like clouds, making the world dark, its fierce power monstrous.

The human race geniuses all felt palpitations. This Xuan Yuan was too strong. His mere aura made them feel suffocated, ten times stronger than that Jiao Wujie!

“Ji Yinlan, this time no one is undergoing tribulation, do you dare to face Xuan Yuan Young Master? Are you thinking of reasons and excuses to avoid battle again, hahaha!”

“Which of you humans can defeat the top three young venerables of my sea race? Perhaps only that Chaos Body, Jun Wuxie, can last a few dozen rounds, the rest are just chickens and dogs!”

“Xuan Yuan Young Master's attack will surely sweep away everything, unstoppable, letting the human race see the divine might of our sea race! Just like in previous epochs, crushing and sweeping the human race!”

“The Chaos Body was very arrogant before, asking who dared to claim invincibility. If it weren't for the heavenly tribulation, Xuan Yuan Young Master would have used his strength to tell him what true invincibility is! Now, after Xuan Yuan Young Master suppresses Ji Yinlan, it will be the Chaos Body's turn. Do you think he won't cry and beg for mercy on his knees?”

“Hahaha!”

… …

The sea race geniuses were all boiling, clamoring wildly, cheering for Xuan Yuan.

After experiencing Jiao Wujie's crushing defeat and begging for mercy, they felt deeply humiliated. At this moment, Xuan Yuan's attack immediately gave them a sense of pride and confidence.
