Chapter 3192: Mediocre Performance (Revised)
knelt on the ground and respectfully kowtowed three times towards the small house. "Grandfather, please rest assured, within five years at the latest, I will definitely return!"Standing up, Jiang Yun..."It's open, it's open!"
"Finally opened!"
Within the myriad domains of the Heavenly Expanse, countless observation platforms almost simultaneously transmitted a single, identical sound!
Although the Heavenly Gates have opened, for cultivators in the celestial realms, it is a grand event. However, in the past, when the first few layers of the heavens were opened, not many people paid much attention.
Because everyone knows, although there are many talented cultivators among the lower realms, only after layers of selection like a storm washing away sand, when the last few levels of Tiangu (heavens) open, will these talents gradually emerge.
Back then, the view from Tiānguān (heavenly gate) was much more interesting and enjoyable to watch. That's why when a new heavenly gate opened, not many people truly paid attention.
However, right now, with the just-opened dual Heaven's Gate, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that every viewing platform is packed. It's so crowded that tickets to the viewing platforms have been inflated to several times their original price.
Even some powerful entities are considering building their own viewing platforms to make a profit.
The reason so many people are paying attention is naturally because of the few things that happened when Yizhong Tianque opened.
Especially the eight celestial beings who presided over the Heavenly Citadel, almost all were wiped out, which truly aroused the curiosity of countless people.
Even if a being from the Eightfold Heaven possesses an unrefined nature, it is still considered one among the heavens.
Without true ability, no matter how much you flatter and try to please others, or change your stance with the wind, you can never become one of the celestial beings.
It is a pity that so many of our people have been killed by cultivators from the Lower Realms.
This means that the cultivators entering the lower realm through the Realm Gate this year are, in terms of overall strength, significantly stronger than any previous session. Naturally, everyone wants to see what they're capable of.
It's not just these people; several of the Nine Great Heavenly Lords have also joined the ranks of those paying attention.
For example, the Empyrean of Void!
At this moment, the Void Heavenly Venerable was no longer surrounded by emptiness. Instead, he found himself in an extremely luxurious hall. Beneath him sat a soft cushion, and on the table before him lay delicacies of fruits, fine wine, and delicious food.
...and before him, were placed four colossal mirrors on all sides. Each mirror reflected the situation of one of the four battlefields.
Beneath him, there were four elderly men sitting.
These four elders are the Four Domain Kings of the Void Race, named after the southeast, northwest, and can be said to be second only to the Heavenly Venerable. In the Multi-Heaven Gathering Territory, they are true overlords.
But, at this moment, their faces were all wearing wry smiles.
Because of their status and power, they wouldn't be interested in the opening of a mere Double Heaven Gate. But there's no way around it, the Heavenly Lord is very interested!
Not only was he interested, but the Heavenly Venerable felt that watching alone wouldn't be enjoyable. Therefore, he specially summoned these four individuals to join him. It was a rare occasion for them to receive his esteemed company and wine, allowing them to watch together. Naturally, they dared not decline.
"It's open! It's open!"
At this time, the Void Heavenly Venerable was just like those ordinary cultivators on the Observation Platform. Seeing the opening of the Second Heaven Gate, he couldn't help but excitedly cheer.
Even though the four domain lords didn't want to look, they had to steel themselves and focus their attention on the mirrors all around them.
Xuan Nan's gaze directly looked down at the lower battlefield, with a curious expression on his face: "Heavenly Venerable, this time I wonder if Ji Kongfan will still be able to gain control of Tianque!"
There's no way around it, since we have to watch, we can't just watch silently. We must create some conversation and discuss with the Heavenly Venerable, only then will the Heavenly Venerable be satisfied!
The Void Heaven Venerable raised his cup and said, "Gaining control is definitely possible. Didn't you see that they all spent over two years on the palace walls of this Heavenly Citadel!"
"However, after last time, the people of Qianhuan Tian would inevitably hold the central control power of Tiangu firmly in their hands."
Therefore, even if Ji Kongfan could obtain some control, it is unlikely that something like last time would happen again.
The four domain kings all nodded in agreement. Although the control of the Heavenly Vault was dispersed, the central control remained the strongest.
Once Qianshuan Tian people have some defenses, even if Ji Kongfan can gain partial control, it's still incomparable to Qianshuan Tian, and it's definitely impossible to easily kill Qianshuan Tian again.
Even, if he dared to use the Heavenly Vault control power, he would probably be killed by the Thousand Illusions Heaven people in return.
Xudong bowed to the Void Heaven Venerable and said, "Venerable, I have something unclear."
"Since we already know that this Ji Kongfan can gain control of Tianque, why not send someone to stop him"
The Void Heaven Venerable gave him a withering glance. "Didn't you see the hammer surrounding the Linggu Domain"
"The Divine Forging Sect was willing to go to the Spirit Ancient Domain so early, just to see if he could continue to control the Heavenly Palace!"
Xudong's face suddenly lit up as if he had just realized something. "So it was the Shenlian Sect meddling behind the scenes, deliberately not stopping him,"
Actually, Xudong knew about these things a long time ago, but there was nothing he could do. In order to make the adults happy, he could only pretend not to know.
The Void Heaven Venerable nodded and said, "Linggu Realm has a total of nine Heavenly Palaces."
Although to most people, including the Spirit Race, the power of the Nine Heavens Pavilion seems identical throughout, in reality, the further one goes, the stronger its power becomes, and the more difficult it is to control.
"Especially the ninth heaven, Tianque, of the advanced battleground. Once activated, even I would be somewhat wary!"
Therefore, the Shenlianmen would not stop Ji Kongfan from obtaining control of Tianque. Instead, they wanted to see how far he could go and which levels of Tianque's control he could ultimately acquire.
"According to my analysis, if Ji Kongfan could gain control of the sixth heaven's Tiangu, then the Shenlian sect would definitely try to recruit him!"
Xubě then asked, "Master, this boy named Jiāng Yún, according to our information, besides having the battle armor transformed from Shí Niǔ, his performance over the past three years has been quite ordinary!"
Tracing the followers of Jiangyun was a personal mission assigned by Xu Bei himself.
He naturally knew about Jiang Yun's performance on the Sky-Reaching Ancient Road, and he was also somewhat puzzled.
Since Heaven Lord knows that Jiang Yun was able to kill the heavenly beings by relying on the Voidless, why didn't he simply take back the Voidless
Why stay on a cultivator from the lower realm And what if this cultivator from the lower realm uses the Void Mirror again and kills the one who presides over Tianque, the Celestial Venerable will inevitably be dragged into it once more.
As a celestial being, he naturally wouldn't worry about such trivial matters. However, it is truly unnecessary to waste manpower and energy in providing this young man with such special care!
The Void Heaven Lord glanced at Jiang Yun in the painting and smiled faintly, "I've already told Zhen Que that the Voidless was accidentally lost by me to the Lower Realm years ago."
"Since this kid has gotten it, then it's his fate and rightfully his own strength. It has nothing to do with me!"
As for the performance...
Speaking of which, the Void Heavenly Venerable suddenly fell silent. He raised his cup again and drank it down in one gulp before continuing, "Xu Bei, you're not as old as me, are you"
Upon hearing this, Xubei suddenly stood up, his face pale with fear. "Forgive me, Heavenly Venerable!"
"Don't get excited!"
The Void Heavenly Venerable waved his hand at him and said, "I don't blame you. You didn't pay attention to him because you didn't put him in your eyes, so you overlooked him!"
Although the Void Heavenly Venerable didn't blame Xi Bei, Xi Bei's face remained pale as he said, "Please enlighten me, Heavenly Venerable!"
The Void Heaven Venerable said faintly, "If he was performing mediocrely, why didn't he use the Voidless Seal anymore, and why didn't he use any other artifacts"
If he's been mediocre all along, why does he have no scars from the journey
If he performs mediocrely, the Spirit Race Stone Swamp wouldn't willingly transform into armor and obediently stay on him!
Speaking of this, the Void Heaven Venerable suddenly slammed his wine cup heavily on the table, his eyes gleaming with a cold light as he said: "If he truly performs mediocrely, then after this Second Heavenly Gate, I will take back the Void Mu and personally kill him!"mperial cave.This point, Ginger Cloud also felt was not difficult.After all, the Emperor Hao had contact with his own father and was suppressed by powerful figures from four clans at the cost of many...
