Chapter 1212: Peak of the Cloud Sea, Dominating Wuji (Part Three) – Third Update

Listening to these events unfold, a bright light shone in Mu Bingmei’s eyes, and she couldn't help but inwardly smile bitterly, thinking to herself that no matter where he went, he always seemed to do something astonishing.

Li Qianmei also heard everything, biting her lower lip, but a smile appeared in her bright eyes as she looked up at the sky, her heart filled with joy.

Lü Yanfei’s mind had gone completely blank, and it took her a long time to recover. The shock in her heart was suppressed by joy. She understood, she knew, that he had not forgotten the promise from a hundred years ago. He, braving the stars and moon, had traversed the Sixth Stage, seventh-rank, and eighth-rank Star Domains and had arrived!

Even Wang Shanshan's eyes showed a strange look, and scenes she had conjured in her mind involuntarily appeared: in these scenes, a white-robed, white-haired man approached from afar with an astonishing roar. She was just very puzzled that he actually possessed the Spirit Command Seal.

Lu Yuncong's face revealed a bitter smile. He never expected that Brother Lü, even before arriving, would cause such a huge commotion. This had nothing to do with Lu Yuncong, but rather with the words of those two Wuji Sect Elders.

The entire Wuji Sect viewing platform was silent. The Wuji Sect Master, the white-robed old man, let out a deep breath; he had to believe it! At this moment, his attitude towards that mysterious person was no longer like that of looking at a Junior, but rather like looking at a peer!

“Lü… Lü Yanfei, don’t go back. Wait here. Presumably, after the Sixth Stage sub-sect competition is over, your Junior Martial Uncle should arrive.” The Wuji Sect Master cleared his throat, a look of appreciation for a Junior Disciple appearing on his face as he looked at Lü Yanfei.

Li Qianmei also did not leave, but accepted Wang Shanshan’s invitation and sat beside her. The moment she sat down, Mu Bingmei’s eyes, like lightning, swept over.

The two women, separated by Wang Shanshan, had their gazes momentarily converge. Wang Shanshan, in the middle, introduced them to each other, then suddenly felt a chill, blinked, and leaned back slightly, allowing Mu Bingmei and Li Qianmei to look directly at each other without any obstruction.

“Miss Li is indeed naturally beautiful, and her cultivation is extraordinary.” Mu Bingmei looked at Li Qianmei, then after a long time, retracted her gaze and said softly but coldly.

Li Qianmei had a quiet nature. She somewhat didn't understand why this unfamiliar, stunningly beautiful woman was looking at her. The moment the other party’s gaze retracted, Li Qianmei softly said, “If it comes to beauty, I cannot compare to Fellow Daoist Mu.”

The people of the Wuji Sect seemed to grow even more eager for this grand competition, but what they were looking forward to was 'him' mentioned by the two Elders.

The competitions among the various Sixth Stage sub-sects seemed to lack excitement, but there was one person within them who, like Lu Yuncong back then, stood out!

This person was Yuan Fei, the chief Disciple of the Sixth Stage Juling Sect. He had been in seclusion for many years and had left the sect years ago, only returning two hundred years ago, missing two sub-sect grand competitions. He appeared middle-aged, had Early Stage nirvana shattering cultivation, and his attacks were incredibly ruthless. All sub-sect members who fought against him were often severely injured.

This person was the number one among the younger generation Disciples in the Sixth Stage sub-sects in his early years. Had he not been away for many years, the Xianyin Sect would not have taken the top spot, nor would Lü Yingjie's reputation have been established.

This time, he represented the younger generation Disciples of the sect. Even Lü Yingjie was wary, coldly smiling in silence and not making an appearance, which allowed Yuan Fei to gain immense prestige for a time!

At this moment, he stood on the platform, his gaze like lightning, looking at the Main Sect viewing platform. His piercing eyes constantly lingered on Mu Bingmei and the two other women, not concealing the fanaticism in his eyes.

“I wonder how I compare to the mysterious person Fellow Daoist Li spoke of!” His voice was resonant, echoing like thunder.

Li Qianmei’s expression was calm. She glanced at Yuan Fei on the platform and spoke only two simple words.

“Inferior!”

Yuan Fei fell silent, then chuckled, seemingly not bothered. Instead, his gaze flashed and landed on Lu Yuncong on the viewing platform. He said coldly, “Lu Yuncong, I was away and hadn't returned during the last grand competition. Today, do you still dare to challenge me?!”

Lu Yuncong’s eyes flashed with a cold glint. After a long silence, he said in a deep voice, “If Brother Lü of Guiyuan Sect doesn’t come, what harm is there in fighting you?!”

Time slowly passed, and the Sixth Stage sub-sect competition also drew to a close, but Lü Zihao of Guiyuan Sect, whom everyone was waiting for, still had not arrived.

With the seventh-rank sub-sect competition about to begin, in previous grand competitions, the fourth, fifth-rank, and Sixth Stage Star Domains were merely transitions. The truly exciting part was the seventh-rank Star Domain sub-sects. However, in this grand competition, the first place in the fifth-rank Star Domain had not yet been decided. If it continued like this, it would be somewhat inappropriate.

Moreover, there were many Cultivators watching from all around, including many from other sects. In this situation, the unresolved matter of the fifth-rank sect was even more improper.

Feng Hai hesitated, then looked at the Sect Master, the white-robed old man. The old man pondered for a moment, then glanced at Lü Yanfei and Lu Yuncong. As Sect Master, he naturally had to consider the overall situation, and with the sub-sect grand competition being a grand event, allowing the fifth-rank sect matter to drag on was indeed inappropriate.

“We’ve waited long enough. Even if Lü Zihao arrives later, he’ll have nothing to say.” The white-robed old man’s eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice, “Lu Yuncong, Lü Yanfei, you two enter the grand competition platform and complete the fifth-rank sect competition!”

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately attracted the attention of all the surrounding Cultivators. Lu Yuncong remained silent for a moment, then under the white-robed old man’s gaze, stood up, cupped his fist towards Lü Yanfei, and stepped into the air, heading straight for the platform.

Lü Yanfei bit her lower lip. Although she knew that he was very likely on his way, at this moment, she had no choice but to fight.

With a soft sigh, Lü Yanfei's body transformed into a colorful butterfly and flew towards the grand competition platform, slowly landing on it, her gaze growing even more resolute.

“Even if he hasn’t come, I will continue this battle!”

This matter was a private affair of the Wuji Sect’s sub-sects, and Li Qianmei had no reason to interfere. She silently watched Lü Yanfei’s figure, but had made up her mind: if the Guiyuan Sect were disbanded, she would take all the Guiyuan Sect members to the Potian Sect.

As Lu Yuncong and Lü Yanfei arrived on the platform, the tens of thousands of Cultivators around immediately fell silent, their gazes converging. This Wuji Sect grand competition, because of one person, had made the Guiyuan Sect the center of attention. This mere small sect, for the first time, was remembered by countless Cultivators.

All of this was entirely because of that one person who had yet to arrive!

Not all gazes carried goodwill. Lü Yingjie of the Xianyin Sect on the viewing platform stared at Lü Yanfei and Lu Yuncong with resentful eyes.

“That ridiculous ‘him,’ you all were so certain he’d come, weren’t you? I, Lü, want to see if this person is truly as you all say!” Lü Yingjie clenched his fists.

Further away, where the Xunluan Sect was located, a gloomy cloud permeated. Zhao Long had lost his Physical Body and only had his Primordial Spirit. At this moment, he floated beside the Xunluan Sect’s Grand Elder and Sect Master, his expression listless, but the malice in his eyes far surpassed Lü Yingjie’s.

“Brother Zhao, rest assured, this old man will definitely not let this matter rest! If that person doesn't come, then so be it, but once he arrives, this old man will make him die on the spot!”

“Even if Li Qianmei obstructs, she is just her, she doesn't represent the Potian Sect! We won't offend her, but that mysterious person surnamed Lü must die!”

The events that occurred on the Wuji Sect viewing platform earlier were too far away, and outsiders, apart from those from the Wuji Sect, did not know about them. They had only seen a blurry, illusory shadow, not clearly.

And Yuan Fei of the Sixth Stage sect also had flickering eyes, staring at the two on the platform, a cold smile on his lips. He very much hoped that the mysterious 'him' would come, so he could see with his own eyes what Divine Abilities this person possessed!

Lü Yanfei stood there calmly, a feeling of loneliness slowly rising in her heart. Being the focus of countless gazes, she didn't care about any of that; it was just that the person she had waited a hundred years for had still not appeared.

She raised her head, looking at the sky, her eyes glistening, but no tears fell. Instead, she turned and looked at Lu Yuncong, softly saying, “Fellow Daoist Lu, please enlighten me.”

Lu Yuncong also retracted his seemingly expectant gaze from the sky, looked at Lü Yanfei, and said in a deep voice, “In this battle, I will not hold back. You must be careful!”

Lü Yanfei gave a desolate smile, but the resoluteness in her expression gave her an unusual beauty at this moment. She gently nodded, retreated a few steps, and as her hands formed a seal, heaven and earth origin energy began to swirl.

This heaven and earth origin energy formed a vortex in mid-air, sweeping across with a resounding boom! But! In that instant, the vortex suddenly became frenzied, as if a strange power descended from the sky, emerging from the void, merging into this vortex, stirring up the wind and clouds!

At this moment, the heavens and earth changed color. For some unknown reason, the vortex grew larger and larger, finally breaking free from Lü Yanfei’s control with a bang and flying straight towards the sky!

In this instant, Lü Yanfei was stunned, but immediately, her body trembled violently, and she suddenly looked up!

Not only her, but in that instant, Lu Yuncong also felt his entire body shake. His Primordial Spirit within him seemed to tremble, as if an indescribable pressure descended with a roar from the distant sky. This immense pressure was enough to shake the heavens and earth, and as it enveloped him, it contained a will that he could not resist!

This will, he was familiar with, very familiar with!

Suddenly looking up, Lu Yuncong stared fixedly at the sky!

At this moment, apart from the two of them, the nearly one hundred thousand Cultivators on the surrounding viewing platforms immediately felt the pressure descending from the sky. Thunder rumbled, turning into roars of lightning. The colossal rumbling sounds shook the heavens and earth, stirring up endless echoes, and in this instant, replaced everything in the world!

The entire sky, suddenly, was filled with silver snakes. There were so many of these silver snakes, as if at this moment, all the lightning in the entire Star Domain had been attracted by this strange power, replacing heaven and earth!

Thunder rumbled, the heavens and earth changed color, wind and clouds rolled back, and were moreover shrouded in a sheet of lightning. These lightning bolts intertwined to form a lightning net, condensing from the sky and rumbling down!

A white figure, in the highest reaches of the sky, slowly appeared amidst the endless rumbling thunder! His white hair fluttered, seemingly stirring the heavenly thunder, causing the heavens and earth to instantly become a lightning pool Hell!

The lightning instantly let out a roar that seemed to come from ancient times. This roar could shake the hearts of all Cultivators, filling them with dread!

Heavenly thunder surged, just to welcome one person!

“He has arrived!”
