Between heaven and earth, flower petals fluttered down.
Immortal music resounded, like Yun Tianlai herself.
In the distance, amidst a hazy glow, an Immortal Bridge emerged, spanning the Void Realm.
An peerless beauty gracefully walked from the other end of the bridge.
Her face was captivating, breathtakingly beautiful, like a dream.
Her long dress swayed, and her sleeves danced, like a Fairy treading the mortal dust.
Her figure was graceful and curvaceous, like a blooming immortal flower, and her skin was crystal clear, like jade.
This was a stunning woman; one smile could topple a city, and two smiles could topple a nation.
It could be said that with the arrival of this woman,
even the radiance of the two Fairies, Liu Qiong Yan and Yun Tianlai, was greatly diminished, and their aura was suppressed by her.
"It's the Celestial Maiden Changsheng of Chang Sheng Island!"
The arrival of this woman seemed to brighten the entire world considerably.
Many Nine Heavens Prodigies also showed appreciation and infatuation in their eyes.
Although Celestial Maiden Changsheng's face was peerless, one should not think of her as just a pretty face.
In fact, Celestial Maiden Changsheng ranked fourth on the Nine Heavens Dragon Phoenix Rankings.
She even ranked one spot higher than today's protagonist, the Seven-Colored Taoist.
Of course, the top five Prodigies on the Nine Heavens Dragon Phoenix Rankings were all Profound Venerable-level existences.
In truth, there wasn't much difference between them.
However, another Prodigy from Chang Sheng Island, who was also the top-ranked on the Nine Heavens Dragon Phoenix Rankings, the Chang Sheng Emperor, was widely recognized as the number one among the younger generation of the Nine Heavens.
The Chang Sheng Emperor was an existence even deeply hidden figures like Wang Yan greatly feared.
His power needed no further description.
No one dared to challenge his position as the top of the Nine Heavens Dragon Phoenix Rankings.
Today, however, the Chang Sheng Emperor had not arrived.
The Celestial Maiden Changsheng had come first to scout the situation.
"Everyone, today's protagonist is not me."
Seeing all eyes turn to her, Celestial Maiden Changsheng smiled slightly, her teeth like arranged shells, her beauty unparalleled.
"Not at all. We didn't expect this battle to alarm Your Highness the Tian Nv."
Many people smiled and returned the greeting.
Celestial Maiden Changsheng was approachable and didn't appear aloof; she wasn't a cold beauty.
Therefore, she was well-liked and popular in the Nine Heavens, being well-connected.
"Hmph, just a green tea bitch…"
Seeing this, Liu Qiong Yan snorted disdainfully.
"Are you jealous?" Yun Tianlai asked.
But to be honest, she also didn't have a good impression of Celestial Maiden Changsheng.
She always felt that beneath this woman's approachable exterior, another facade was hidden.
Of course, this was just her feeling.
If she were to actually say it, Celestial Maiden Changsheng might not even react, but a group of her loyal followers would already be knocking on her door.
With the arrival of Celestial Maiden Changsheng, the atmosphere here undoubtedly reached its peak.
The Dragon Phoenix Rankings Prodigies, who were rarely seen on ordinary days, all appeared one by one.
Ancient Thousand Demise, ranked third, Celestial Maiden Changsheng, ranked fourth, Kun Xuzi, ranked sixth, and Xuan Mi, ranked seventh, all arrived.
Moreover, there were some hidden auras that had not yet revealed themselves.
These were some Big Shots of the Divine Venerable and Dao Venerable level.
Even some existences from restricted areas observed this place, their gazes piercing through the endless Void Realm.
Just as everyone was filled with anticipation.
At a certain moment, in the distant starry sky.
Suddenly, seven-colored divine light surged.
A young Taoist stepped forth, riding on ten thousand feet of divine radiance.
His long hair was incredibly brilliant, like a rainbow, displaying seven colors.
He held a whisk in his hand.
He looked like an immortal, with an air of calm and composure, unmoving and unshaken.
If not for a faint trace of seven-colored profound light occasionally flashing in his eyes,
one would truly think he was a Taoist who had no worldly desires.
"He's here!"
Seeing the Seven-Colored Taoist descend upon this place, the atmosphere in the arena grew even more intense.
The Seven-Colored Taoist himself, however, remained as calm as an ancient well.
After arriving, he directly sat cross-legged in the Void Realm, closing his eyes to meditate.
This posture also made many Nine Heavens Prodigies secretly nod.
As expected of an existence ranked among the top five on the Nine Heavens Dragon Phoenix Rankings, his Heart-Nature was indeed excellent.
The Seven-Colored Taoist didn't speak much, but such people were even more terrifying.
He didn't need to say anything with words.
Blood debts, naturally, had to be repaid with blood.
Moreover, although he was older, he could still barely be considered part of the younger generation.
Even if he truly made a move and killed Jun Xiaoyao, strictly speaking, it wouldn't be considered excessive.
At least the Jun Family wouldn't be able to argue.
From the moment the Seven-Colored Taoist issued the challenge, he had already decided to kill Jun Xiaoyao in the special place of Duan Tian Valley.
That's right!
It was to kill, not to suppress or defeat.
The enmity between Jun Xiaoyao and the Holy Spirit Ruins was already irreconcilable.
His identity as a Langu successor, the vendetta of the Little Stone Emperor, and the death of the Sword Emperor Son.
Layer upon layer, they accumulated.
Only blood could cleanse them.
Therefore, this battle would definitely be a fight to the death!
Seeing the Seven-Colored Taoist's indifferent yet solemn expression,
everyone's hearts trembled.
This battle would definitely not be as simple as a mere sparring match!
Time flowed by, drop by drop.
One hour…
Two hours…
Three hours…
In a blink of an eye, three days passed.
Although for a Cultivator, three days were no different from a blink of an eye.
But this was the agreed-upon battle time.
Many people showed confusion and surprise.
Did Jun Xiaoyao perhaps stand them up?
"No way, is Jun Xiaoyao really just all talk?"
"That's right, three days have already passed since the agreed-upon battle date, this is too outrageous."
"I don't think he's afraid of the Seven-Colored Taoist, is he?"
"That shouldn't be the case, right?"
Some discussions broke out in the arena.
"What's going on? Is Jun Xiaoyao really just all talk?" Liu Qiong Yan also furrowed her brows.
Yun Tianlai, however, shook her head slightly and said, "He's not that kind of person."
To follow through on his words, that was Jun Xiaoyao's principle.
"Heh… does he really not dare to come? If so, it's quite disappointing." Ancient Thousand Demise's Dharma body shook his head, a hint of mockery in his eyes.
If he didn't even dare to face the Seven-Colored Taoist,
then there was no mention of fighting him.
Ji Qingyi remained silent.
She understood Jun Xiaoyao relatively well, having witnessed his invincible path to rise.
She knew there was only one possibility for this situation.
That was, Jun Xiaoyao simply didn't take this challenge seriously.
So, a few days earlier or a few days later didn't matter.
For the Seven-Colored Taoist, it was a battle of life and death.
But for Jun Xiaoyao, it was insignificant, completely unfelt.
"You… you don't understand him…" Ji Qingyi sighed inwardly.
At this moment, Celestial Maiden Changsheng also slightly furrowed her delicate brows.
"If he doesn't even show up for this, then he shouldn't be qualified to fight against Lord Emperor."
Even with her noble status, she referred to the Chang Sheng Emperor as Lord Emperor.
This showed how noble the Chang Sheng Emperor's status and power were.
Now.
Even the Seven-Colored Taoist, who had been sitting cross-legged in the Void Realm with an air of composure, was starting to get restless.
Jun Xiaoyao's absence made him look like a clown.
"Turns out the Divine Son of the Immortal Domain Jun Family is nothing more than that, a dishonest scoundrel."
The Seven-Colored Taoist snorted coldly.
And just then.
Suddenly, an overwhelming Evil Qi surged from the distance.
Three ancient Vicious Beasts pulled a carriage.
A man and a woman sat inside, none other than Jun Xiaoyao and Yan Rumeng.
"Apologies, I've been too comfortable soaking in the hot springs these past few days, and with a beauty by my side, I almost forgot about this matter."
Jun Xiaoyao's single sentence stunned the entire audience.
The Seven-Colored Taoist had come with the belief of life and death.
Yet Jun Xiaoyao was so leisurely, treating it as child's play.
His remark about almost forgetting the matter simply made it unbearable for people.
It could be said that Jun Xiaoyao didn't utter a single insulting word.
But every word exuded a condescending contempt and humiliation.
Did one need to be so solemn to step on an ant?
Just crush it when you had a moment.
