Chapter 205: Are You Finally Unable to Hold Back?

At the peak of Yuanwu Mountain.

On the square, beneath the Wuxian Platform.

Everyone was eager to rush ahead and ascend the Wuxian Platform, to enter the Yuanwu Immortal Domain.

A chaotic free-for-all broke out beneath the platform, with everyone scrambling to get ahead.

Even before entering the Yuanwu Immortal Domain, those who reached the mountain top were already throwing punches.

Some even went after Xiao Yang!

However, Xiao Yang dodged them effortlessly.

He didn’t want to reveal his strength too soon.

At this moment, the people from the Qingyang Sword Sect had also arrived.

Jiang Qitian was followed closely by all the disciples of the Qingyang Sword Sect who participated in the Gengzi Grand Competition.

Jiang Ting and Qin Fei were right by Jiang Qitian’s side.

“Senior Brother…”

Song Qiang shot out a flying sword at the two people attacking Xiao Yang.

A tall, burly man reached out with his right hand to grab the incoming sword.

To everyone’s surprise, a layer of black metal armor quickly covered his hand.

“Clang!”

The man’s hand clamped down on Song Qiang’s flying sword, sending sparks flying everywhere.

“Is he a disciple of the Refining Sect?”

Song Qiang was taken aback.

He directed his flying sword, and it immediately broke free from the man’s grip, returning to his side.

“People from Qingyang Sword Sect?” The burly man stared coldly at Song Qiang.

Meanwhile, Lin Wangchuan was engaged in a fierce battle with another person.

That other person had a shadow of beasts flickering around him, employing the Ten Thousand Beast Mysterious Skill from Beast Control Manor.

He moved like a coiled dragon one moment, and pounced like a perched tiger the next, exuding a terrifying aura that forced Lin Wangchuan to use the Spiritual Monkey Movement technique to evade.

“Your movement technique…”

The other guy was taken aback.

In the next moment, he too moved like a spiritual monkey, contesting Lin Wangchuan with the monkey skill from his own mysterious arts.

For a moment, it looked as though two spiritual monkeys were squabbling.

The spectators were completely captivated by the scene.

At that moment, chaos erupted on the square.

A figure clad in metal plates, leaving only his eyes exposed, launched a fierce attack, swiftly taking down several martial practitioners, shocking those around him into retreat.

A menacing aura radiated from this guy, leaving everyone shaken.

“It’s Wang Kunpeng, the Holy Son of the Refining Sect…”

Someone exclaimed.

“Ten Absolute Battle Armor?”

Jiang Qitian was surprised to see Wang Kunpeng in his armor. Even before entering the Yuanwu Immortal Domain, he had already activated the Ten Absolute Battle Armor?

Starting off like that? What chance do the others have?

“Master Jiang, long time no see!”

At that moment, a person approached, clasping his hands in greeting.

Jiang Qitian turned to look, his pupils instantly narrowing.

This person was an old man.

His steps were neither hurried nor slow, each one seemed to resonate with the laws of the universe, causing the space around him to tremble slightly.

He was tall, with piercing eyes, and his silver hair flowed gently in the wind, exuding an overwhelming presence.

“Wang Ao?”

Xiao Yang recognized the old man.

He was Wang Kunpeng’s master, and the Sect Leader of the Refining Sect, Wang Ao.

Wherever Wang Ao passed, everyone was pushed aside by an invisible force.

Behind Wang Ao followed a group of disciples from the Refining Sect who were participating in the Gengzi Grand Competition.

“Master!”

Wang Kunpeng came over, and everyone stepped aside.

This man was a killing machine.

“Master Wang, it’s been a while, your cultivation has improved significantly!” Jiang Qitian said with a respectful gesture.

“Hehe, it doesn’t compare to your achievements, Master Jiang. With your Qingyang Sword, we can only bow down in admiration,” Wang Ao said, eyeing the sword at Jiang Qitian’s waist with a hint of envy.

The Qingyang Sword is one of the Three Great Divine Swords of the Northern Region.

Fuyiao Sword, Qingyang Sword, and Qingyun Sword are dubbed the Three Great Divine Swords.

However, only Qingyang and Fuyiao are known in this era. The Qingyun Sword vanished long ago during the attack of the Demon Sect on the Qingyun Sect.

Some say it was taken by the Demon Sect and brought to the Demon Abyss, while others believe it flew away on its own.

There’s much speculation, but what’s certain is that the Qingyun Sword is genuinely missing.

The Supreme Sword of the Supreme Dao Sect is also famous among the northern divine swords.

But nobody knows whether the Qingyang Sword is more powerful than the Supreme Sword.

As for the Fuyiao Sword from the Fuyiao Sword Sect, it hasn’t been seen in ages.

“Master Wang is too modest; your Sect’s Ten Absolute Battle Armor is impressive as well!”

Although somewhat displeased, Jiang Qitian did not show it.

Wang Ao was clearly mocking him for relying on the Qingyang Sword to contend with them.

But didn’t the Refining Sect also triumph thanks to their magical artifacts?

The Ten Absolute Battle Armor was no mere toy!

“Hehe, Master Jiang, you jest,” Wang Ao laughed.

After a few exchanges, both of them led their respective disciples toward the Wuxian Platform.

At that moment, those who were in chaos earlier quieted down.

After all, everyone knew these two were the big shots of the northern cultivation realm.

Song Qiang and Lin Wangchuan also came to a halt.

Lin Wangchuan was having a whale of a time sparring with the Beast Control Manor disciple, clearly enjoying the battle.

Moreover, the Beast Control Manor disciple was quite curious about Lin Wangchuan’s Spiritual Monkey Movement technique.

Unexpectedly, the two developed a kind of mutual respect.

Under the leadership of Jiang Qitian and Wang Ao, the disciples of the Qingyang Sword Sect and the Refining Sect ascended the Wuxian Platform under everyone’s watchful eyes.

“Senior Brother hasn’t come up yet,” Lin Wangchuan suddenly said, turning to look at Xiao Yang down by the Wuxian Platform.

“Senior Brother…”

Song Qiang was also taken aback.

Qin Fei, standing beside Jiang Ting, shot a provocating glare at Xiao Yang.

However, at this moment, a beam of celestial light fell from the Immortal Gate, instantly enveloping everyone atop the Wuxian Platform.

The next instant, all figures on the platform vanished from sight.

“You are the Holy Son of Qingyang Sword Sect, Xiao Yang?”

The crowd surrounded Xiao Yang.

Recently, Xiao Yang had been on quite a streak in the northern cultivation realm.

Even the Fuyiao Sword Sect’s Li Xingyao had been defeated by him.

At this moment, Xiao Yang was undoubtedly recognized as the top youth of the northern region.

However, everyone had also heard that the Fuyiao Sword Sect’s saintess Li Xingyao had already broken through to the Divine Martial Realm.

Meanwhile, Xiao Yang was still at the peak of the Heavenly Martial Realm.

Thus, in this Gengzi Grand Competition, Xiao Yang was in for a rough ride.

“Fellow brothers, why don’t we join forces to push this Holy Son of Qingyang Sword Sect down the mountain? That way, we eliminate a strong opponent in the competition!”

Someone voiced loudly.

Xiao Yang cast a glance in the direction of the voice.

The instigator was none other than Ye Feiyang, the heir of the Beast Control Manor.

The martial practitioners in the square couldn’t help but feel tempted by the suggestion.

The Qingyang Sword Sect’s leader had already entered the Yuanwu Immortal Domain with the other disciples, leaving only Xiao Yang behind.

Xiao Yang was alone now.

Besides, if Jiang Qitian were here, no one would dare touch any disciples of the Qingyang Sword Sect.

That Qingyang Sword of his wasn’t just for show.

Even the Half Saint Li Chenyu from the Fuyiao Sword Sect couldn’t withstand Jiang Qitian’s sword strike.

That day in Yuanlong City’s northern mountain spirit vein, Jiang Qitian’s victory over Li Chenyu had spread like wildfire.

Li Chenyu took her loss like a champ.

No gathering of the younger generation could withstand even a single strike from Jiang Qitian.

But now, Xiao Yang was unprotected.

“What are you all waiting for?”

Ye Feiyang declared loudly.

The Supreme Dao Child didn’t bother to join the fray.

At this moment, the Supreme Dao Master was also leading his disciples onto the Wuxian Platform.

Ye Feiyang shot a glance at Chu Guiyuan, wanting him to take the lead and attack Xiao Yang.

Yet, he could hardly guess that the current Chu Guiyuan was no longer the same as before.

At that time, the Master of the Heavenly Medical Sect arrived with his disciples.

Disciples of the Shifang Qimen were also gathering.

The Master of the Divine Sword Manor, along with his disciples, ascended to the peak of Yuanwu Mountain.

At this moment, the square at the peak of Yuanwu Mountain was brimming with strong practitioners.

Those sect leaders and masters were all exuding an impressive demeanor, showcasing the might of the top figures of their sects.

The Master of the Heavenly Medical Sect was a woman clad in white and masked.

She radiated spiritual energy, ethereal like a celestial being descending from the heavens.

The Holy Maiden of the Heavenly Medical Sect, Ning Shu, naturally wouldn’t team up to trouble Xiao Yang.

Li Fan Yin wouldn’t stoop to such depths either.

And Chu Guixi, currently masquerading as Chu Guiyuan, definitely wouldn’t make a move against Xiao Yang now.

As for the remaining martial practitioners, despite their numbers, they weren’t foolish.

After all, Xiao Yang had once defeated the saintess Li Xingyao from the Fuyiao Sword Sect. Who would dare to challenge him easily?

So, Ye Feiyang’s rallying cry fell flat.

“This…”

Ye Feiyang felt extremely awkward; he found himself in a bind.

He thought he would get a chorus of support for his call to arms, yet he ended up looking like a clown.

All the sect leaders and masters glanced at Xiao Yang before proceeding toward the Wuxian Platform.

The Gengzi Grand Competition was the main event.

In fact, the Gengzi Grand Competition was a contest meant for the younger generation, and these big shots couldn’t interfere.

Moreover, the consequences of interference could be severe.

Soon, disciples from the Heavenly Medical Sect, Shifang Qimen, Divine Sword Manor, Supreme Dao Sect, and Guiyuan Martial Sect all ascended the Wuxian Platform, entering the Yuanwu Immortal Domain one after another.

Along with the earlier arrivals from the Qingyang Sword Sect and the Refining Sect.

Out of the ten major sects in the Northern Region, seven had already entered the Yuanwu Immortal Domain.

“Step off, you embarrassing fool!”

A commanding voice rang out as a silver-haired elder accompanied by a group of black-clad disciples strode over.

Leaf Dragonborn of the Beast Control Manor had arrived.

Xiao Yang appraised Leaf Dragonborn.

He noticed this man, like the leader of the Refining Sect, was tall and exuded an aura of dominance.

Upon seeing Leaf Dragonborn, Ye Feiyang rushed over in a panic.

“Uncle…”

Ye Feiyang nervously saluted Leaf Dragonborn.

“Come with me!”

Leaf Dragonborn glanced at Xiao Yang before leading his disciples toward the Wuxian Platform.

Who would dare to stop him?

No one dared impede his path.

With the Beast Control Manor’s entry into the Yuanwu Immortal Domain, only the Fuyiao Sword Sect and the Dan Ding Sect were still absent from the gathering of the ten major sects.

“Take him down!”

At that moment, without any warning, a dozen young martial practitioners launched simultaneous attacks on Xiao Yang.

“Are they finally unable to hold back?”

Xiao Yang smirked, seemingly having anticipated that someone would make a move against him.
