Chapter 672: Chapter 671: Heading to Celestial Fairy City
"Li Qingfeng pays his respects to everyone!"
Although Chen Jin was just a guard, Li Qingfeng dared not neglect him, for how could he overlook the fact that this man stood at the high ranks of the Saint Realm?
If he were to anger him, that would spell doom.
"Even Master is so respectful, could this guard be a high-ranking member of the Saint Realm as well?"
Tang Yaoyao looked at Chen Jin curiously; she rarely saw Li Qingfeng so restrained.
This made Tang Yaoyao wonder, could this guard also be of high rank in the Saint Realm?
After all, the man was just a guard.
"Hall Master, we are all ready. We’ll be setting off for Celestial Fairy City soon. Will you be coming with us, or will you travel on your own?"
Li Qingfeng inquired.
This visit with Tang Yaoyao was specifically to discuss this matter.
"You go on your own, we’ll make our own arrangements," Liu Zheng said indifferently.
There was no need to accompany them; his visit to Celestial Fairy City was merely to see if there was a Son of Destiny.
"It may be somewhat dull for you to travel alone, Hall Master. Perhaps it would be better if Yaoyao could accompany you by your side?"
"That works."
Liu Zheng nodded slightly, and upon hearing this, Tang Yaoyao’s cheeks turned slightly red.
This was the first time she would be traveling with the Hall Master.
Li Qingshan nodded slightly and didn’t linger much longer.
"Let’s go!"
Once Li Qingfeng left, it was time for Liu Zheng and the others to depart.
Liu Zheng was really looking forward to this assembly of young geniuses.
With the geniuses gathered, perhaps he could find the Son of Destiny. He had a feeling that this Son of Destiny would appear before long.
The void trembled, and soon a flying ship appeared mid-air, hundreds of meters in length, with courtyards and pavilions spread throughout.
Liu Zheng originally wanted to take a war chariot, but it had appeared once before and had become a symbol of the Demon God Temple.
There was no choice but to use the flying ship as a mode of transportation.
Everyone boarded the ship, and the vessel, glowing with radiance, vanished from its original position.
"How long will it take to reach Celestial Fairy City?"
Atop the pavilion, Liu Zheng sipped his tea and asked.
If Luo Ni and the others were escorting him, the journey would be fast since they were all high-ranking members of the Saint Realm.
But traveling by flying ship naturally meant a slower pace.
"About three days,"
Luo Ni responded from the side.
"That’s not too bad,"
Liu Zheng nodded slightly, and then turned to Tang Yaoyao, "You can sit too, no need to be so formal."
He then asked Chen Jin and Luo Ni to leave.
Now the room contained only Liu Zheng and Tang Yaoyao.
It must be said, though Luo Ni and the others had restrained their auras, the pressure from two high-ranking members of the Saint Realm was still immense.
"Tell me about this gathering, and about the young geniuses who will attend,"
He hadn’t deliberately inquired about it; he had been fighting with the Red Moon Wolf Clan for such a long time, how could he have had a moment to spare for this?
Now that they had three days before they reached Celestial Fairy City, it was a good time to get informed.
She should know quite a bit of information.
Tang Yaoyao nodded and began, "The gathering in Celestial Fairy City has been held for a long time now, for tens of thousands of years. Geniuses from the northern and western territories congregate here to exchange ideas."
"These geniuses all seek to make a name for themselves at this gathering, and each time, some stand out from the rest. But their number is not large; many more geniuses remain unrecognized."
Hearing this, Liu Zheng gained a general understanding; this was the stage for the younger generation and their platform to make a name for themselves.
As prodigies, they were all prideful at heart, convinced that they were superior to others.
Therefore, they also wanted to see for themselves if these prodigies were as formidable as the legends claimed.
This was considered a form of experience, so the members of the various major powers were quite willing to go.
"Is there anything else? Since it’s a gathering, I suppose there must be other activities, right?"
Liu Zheng asked.
"Yes, there is always an auction at the gathering. Taking advantage of the gathering of cultivators from all the major powers, they auction off all sorts of treasures."
"Hall Master, you mustn’t underestimate this auction. I’ve heard that at the last auction, an Emperor Scripture was sold."
"I believe at this auction, Hall Master, you’ll be able to find something you like."
Tang Yaoyao said with a smile.
Hearing this, Liu Zheng laughed.
He didn’t actually need anything at the moment, with the Demon God Temple, he had access to all kinds of resources.
If he really needed any resources, it would be fragments of the Time Supreme Scripture or Emperor-level Materials.
But these items were exceptionally precious, not something one could just obtain by wishing for them.
"Hall Master, will you be debating with these prodigies at the gathering?"
Tang Yaoyao asked curiously.
"No, I don’t want to bully these people."
Liu Zheng said with a laugh.
Even though he was only in the Venerable Realm, even those in the Saint Realm were no match for him.
In Liu Zheng’s eyes, those prodigies were just children.
It certainly wouldn’t do for someone in the Venerable Realm to bully those in the Emperor Realm.
Even if the opponent was a cultivator in the Venerable Realm, they were no different from those in the Emperor Realm in Liu Zheng’s eyes.
...
Celestial Fairy City was an ancient city of immense size with a long history, exuding a profound atmosphere.
The massive city resembled a giant dragon coiling atop a mountain, majestic and powerful.
Above Celestial Fairy City, divine light shimmered, and various flying ships danced through the sky, pulled by all kinds of mythical beasts.
This was a gathering of prodigies, where the elites of each power would converge, creating a lively atmosphere.
"Isn’t that the flying ship of Yuanchu Sect? The one standing at the forefront is the Origin Beginning Holy Son and the Mammoth Clan’s Xiang Aotian, right?"
"It really is them!"
"You can feel the pressure from afar, truly deserving of the title ’supreme prodigies’."
"Heh, of course. And did you not see who it is? They say that the Origin Beginning Holy Son was born with a unique physique, strong enough to defeat someone in the Venerable Realm at mere Emperor Realm Nine Heavens."
"Truly someone who can be called a young supreme!"
The flying ship approached slowly, with a man clad in white and radiant with mysterious light standing at the forefront. His features were sharp and three-dimensional, with deep and bright eyes as if a great monarch were surveying the mortal realm.
The Origin Beginning Holy Son, the heir of Yuanchu Sect, was the legendary young supreme likely to achieve enlightenment.
Standing beside the Origin Beginning Holy Son was a robust man, his muscles seeming to burst from his skin, and a determined face exuding a fierce aura.
The Mammoth Clan’s prodigy, Xiang Aotian.
He was only slightly inferior to the Origin Beginning Holy Son within Yuanchu Sect and was also a top-tier prodigy.
Subsequently, the flying ship landed, and more than a dozen people emerged, entering Fairy Celestial Hall one after another.
This was the meeting place for the prodigies and also the venue for the upcoming auction.
"Is that the Saint Heir of the Qilin Clan? I didn’t expect him to come."
"Not only the Saint Heir of the Qilin Clan, but the Saintess of the Flying Fox Clan has also come."
"This is really rare, I didn’t expect two ancient races to participate in this gathering."
"Not just that, I’ve heard that the Saint Heir of Yuandao Sect will also come, likely because of that person."
"Are you referring to the one purported to be invincible among the younger generation, possessing the potential of a great emperor?"
