Chapter 878, Approaching Storm

Translator: Silavin

 

Challenges only occurred between equal Forces, or when seeking to seize status. Now, such events were actually happening to a Sacred Land!

 

The Sacred Land’s prestige had undoubtedly suffered severe provocation!

 

Regarding all this, the Radiance Sacred Land and Roaring Heaven Sacred Land, which held equal Sacred Land status in this region, made no statements, as if tacitly allowing this situation to develop.

 

The capable could claim their own position. This was an unchanging iron law in any region.

 

Moreover, the conflict between Radiance Sacred Land and Brilliant Sky Sacred Land ran deep. Any Force with some history knew about the Yu Wenyu incident.

 

With the situation developing so rapidly to this extent, any perceptive person could guess that Radiance Sacred Land was definitely fanning the flames behind the scenes.

 

In an extremely short time, countless Major and Minor Forces throughout this region were vaguely converging toward the Brilliant Sky Sacred Land’s location.

 

Subtly, in countless people’s mouths, messages spread that the Brilliant Sky Sacred Land would soon be replaced by Sky Cliff Pavilion!

 

The replacement of a Sacred Land’s reputation would absolutely be a tremendously sensational event throughout Sacred Lands.

 

Moreover, beneath this replacement lay countless opportunities. After all, a starved camel remained larger than a horse. Even facing extinction danger, the Brilliant Sky Sacred Land’s foundation was still there. Once Sky Cliff Pavilion demonstrated capability to replace them, the opportunities brought by such a foundation would immediately become temptations inviting annihilation.

 

‘When the tree falls, everyone pushes.’ This was something countless people throughout the Sacred Lands were willing to do!

 

Amidst external stormy discussions, within the Brilliant Sky Sacred Land, an extremely oppressive atmosphere prevailed.

 

Throughout the entire Brilliant Sky Sacred Land, the previous liveliness had completely vanished. Even clamorous voices were extremely difficult to hear. Countless Disciples remained in secluded cultivation, frantically training in seclusion during these final moments, preparing for a fierce battle!

 

Deep within the Brilliant Sky Sacred Land, atop cloud-wreathed mountain peaks.

 

Several figures stood imposingly, waves of supremely powerful energy fluctuations faintly emanating from their bodies, causing the clouds around this mountain to continuously churn.

 

On the left stood five figures. If ordinary Disciples saw them, they would definitely bow respectfully. The Northern Brilliant Hall Master, Pill Hall Master… every one of them was upper echelon of the Brilliant Sky Sacred Land!

 

Facing the Northern Brilliant Hall Master’s group were several slightly aged and obscure figures, such as the Outer Sect’s Elder Hua…

 

They too were Pillars of the Brilliant Sky Sacred Land, only their dispositions were peaceful, preferring simplicity. Thus, they merely held relaxed positions of little consequence within the Sacred Land.

 

Yet at this moment, they had all gathered here. At the very front centre before them stood the Brilliant Sky Sacred Land’s Sacred Master… Yu Qianqiu!

 

“Sacred Master, we cannot sit idle waiting for death! A mere Sky Cliff Pavilion dares extend their hands and feet toward our Brilliant Sky Sacred Land!”

 

“Indeed, Sacred Master, give the word. Annihilating them requires only one day!”

 

“*Hmph!* A mere Ling Tuya, without giving him time to grow, so what if he obtained a Saint’s inheritance?”

 

These important figures each wore grim expressions. Several with more volatile temperaments even spoke angrily.

 

“We cannot act rashly. Once we make a move, Radiance Sacred Land will use this as an excuse to attack us!” From one side, the Pill Hall Master’s brow furrowed. However, he still offered a rational reminder.

 

Between Sacred Lands, mutual restraint existed. If they rashly attacked a Force possessing a Saint over such matters, before they could annihilate them, their own Sacred Land would likely be destroyed first by the other two Sacred Lands.

 

Moreover, this was definitely a situation Radiance Sacred Land wished to see. As for Roaring Heaven Sacred Land, though they had no such deep grievances with the Brilliant Sky Sacred Land, they clearly seemed unwilling to wade into these muddy waters.

 

“Then what do you suggest? Those bastards from Sky Cliff Pavilion are clearly coming to crush our morale. Once people bully us to our doorstep, we won’t be far from annihilation!”

 

“Exactly! Those turtle-like bastards are just relying on one brat who obtained Saint Prestige. Do they really think themselves invincible!?”

 

Clamorous voices continuously echoed atop the mountain peak.

 

Currently, these Sacred Land upper echelon felt extremely stifled.

 

However, relying on Saint Prestige and a Saint’s inheritance, which Disciple among the Martial Emperor Realm could resist Ling Tuya? Even within Radiance Sacred Land and Roaring Heaven Sacred Land, such figures probably did not exist!

 

Amidst this clamour, Yu Qianqiu, who had been quietly standing at the centre, suddenly stood up, his gaze looking toward a certain direction… there, precisely where the Pill Hall was located!

 

Seeing his movement, the originally clamorous crowd immediately quieted.

 

“Sa… Sacred Master, Saint Prestige at his cultivation realm is irresistible. Even that young man, facing Ling Tuya, probably has no chance of victory!”

 

Seeing the Brilliant Sky Sacred Master’s expression, the Pill Hall Master sighed inwardly. After contemplating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, “Why not throw out news of the Compound Pill? Even if we can’t stop this from happening, at least we can delay for some time!”

 

“Right, as long as that Ling Tuya breaks through to Martial Ancestor Realm, we can have Mu Yanfeng kill his way to their door and slay him before the world!”

 

These words immediately drew a ton of agreement.

 

The Compound Pill’s revolutionary nature would definitely draw countless Forces’ attention. As long as they could delay for some time, even if they lost some prestige, once they openly slew Ling Tuya, everything could be recovered!

 

Yu Qianqiu remained silent, his brow slightly furrowed.

 

Mu Yanfeng was indeed powerful. This point was beyond doubt.

 

However, if facing Ling Tuya who possessed Saint Prestige, things would become uncertain.

 

The Brilliant Sky Sacred Land had only one person who became a Saint, which was him. He understood very clearly how terrifying the suppressive power of Saint Prestige was. It was absolutely something those below the Saint Realm could not resist.

 

Therefore, even when Ling Tuya advanced to the Martial Ancestor Realm, despite having the advantage in cultivation, Mu Yanfeng might still lose.

 

“This is a crisis that unless the Sacred Land can obtain allies, otherwise…” Elder Hua saw through everything. Without joining the clamour, he spoke one sentence revealing the core.

 

No matter how they compared, the Brilliant Sky Sacred Land would definitely lose!

 

Because what the Brilliant Sky Sacred Land now faced was not just Sky Cliff Pavilion, there was also Radiance Sacred Land.

 

The Brilliant Sky Sacred Land was already inferior to Radiance Sacred Land. Now adding Sky Cliff Pavilion’s Pavilion Master that became a Saint, it was basically the final straw breaking the camel’s back.

 

When the time came, with two Saints descending, how could the Brilliant Sky Sacred Land resist?

 

“I’ll leave this matter for you to handle.” Yu Qianqiu spoke for the first time, addressing Elder Hua.

 

Everyone fell silent.

 

Simultaneously, their expressions all appeared somewhat dim.

 

If only they were stronger. Why would the Sacred Land fall to such circumstances otherwise?
