Chapter 73: Dai Mubai Encounters a Subordinate Sect of the Primordial Immortal Court, the Qingyun Sect!
Below, the Zhu family members, who had originally worn expressions of absolute confidence, instantly turned extremely grim when they saw this scene.
"How is that possible?"
"That useless waste was actually selected?" The Zhu family head stared at the Sky Screen, his face filled with disbelief.
"Hmph!"
Meanwhile, Dai Tianfeng showed them no courtesy at all.
With a sweep of his sleeve, he directly knocked the Edict of Annulment off the table in front of him. Then he even stepped on it, looking down arrogantly at the Zhu family.
"You were too impatient!"
"Did you really think that just because you climbed onto a higher branch, you could ride on my head and do whatever you pleased?"
"Don't forget that Zhu Zhuqing only possesses the Hell Spirit Cat martial soul!"
"And my son Mubai possesses the Evil-Eyed White Tiger!"
"A top-tier beast martial soul!"
"If even a mere cat can thrive in that world like a fish in water…"
"Then wouldn't my son, a fierce tiger, be like a dragon entering the sea or a tiger roaring through the mountains?!"
After saying that, Dai Tianfeng burst into hearty laughter, as if he had already seen Dai Mubai rampaging through that world before returning to slap the Zhu family in the face.
However, faced with the emperor's sudden show of backbone, the Zhu family head quickly recovered from his brief shock and let out a cold laugh.
He glanced disdainfully at the decree on the ground, then looked back at Dai Tianfeng standing arrogantly before the dragon throne.
"Your Majesty, aren't you celebrating a bit too early?"
"So what if he was selected?"
"In that world, what matters is opportunity and background!"
"My Zhuqing landed in the Primordial Immortal Court!"
"That is Immortal King-level lineage!"
"Her starting point alone was the Servant Peak, where supreme experts personally provide guidance!"
"But what about your prince?"
With his hands clasped behind his back, the Zhu family head took two slow steps while looking at Dai Mubai on the Sky Screen, unable to suppress a sneer.
"If he's lucky, perhaps he'll end up in some small sect."
"If he's unlucky… heh, just like that Titan Giant Ape, dead the moment he arrives!"
"Besides, even if he does enter a sect, do you think he could possibly be chosen by one stronger than the Primordial Immortal Court?"
"Stop dreaming. The Primordial Immortal Court is the pinnacle of that world!"
Although the Zhu head's words were all true, they sounded extremely unpleasant to Dai Tianfeng.
"There's no guarantee of that!"
Dai Tianfeng narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth.
"The outcome is not yet decided. Don't speak too absolutely, or you might bite your own tongue!"
"What if my son is chosen by a lineage even stronger than the Primordial Immortal Court? Hmph. Then your Zhu family will still end up as mere vassals!"
"You—!"
"Enough. Words are useless!"
Dai Tianfeng waved his hand sharply, cutting him off, then fixed his gaze on the Sky Screen.
"Whether he's a dragon or a worm… We'll know soon enough!"
"I want to see exactly where my son will descend!"
At this moment, the imperial hall of the Star Luo Empire was locked in confrontation.
No one spoke anymore.
All eyes turned toward the Sky Screen above, watching Dai Mubai.
…
Meanwhile, Perfect World
Three Thousand Provinces.
Xuan Province.
The Ancient Great Qian Empire.
This was a vast and boundless land.
Just a single capital city of this mortal dynasty was already comparable in size to ten Heaven Dou Empires.
At this moment, on the magnificent royal plaza paved entirely with white jade, auspicious purple energy surged into the sky.
Tens of thousands of imperial guards clad in heavy armor knelt on one knee.
Countless ministers and citizens below them held their breath, not daring to make the slightest sound.
At the very top of the ninety-nine white jade steps, the emperor of the Great Qian Empire led the entire court in a full prostration before two young Daoists floating in midair on flying swords.
"Zhao Chun, ruler of the Great Qian Empire, kowtows in gratitude for the arrival of the immortal masters of the Supreme sect!"
"May the immortal sect enjoy eternal longevity and illuminate the ages!"
In midair, the two young Daoists wore green robes with drifting cloud patterns embroidered on their sleeves.
Although they were merely outer sect stewards, with cultivation barely entering the Divine Fire Realm, in the eyes of these mortals, they were gods who controlled life and death.
"Rise."
The thin immortal master on the left nodded slightly and spoke calmly.
His voice was not loud, yet it boomed like a great bell, making everyone's ears ring.
"We were sent by the Sect Master to inspect the subordinate empires and select immortal seedlings."
"Your Great Qian Empire has done fairly well."
As he spoke, he casually pointed to three children standing beside him.
The oldest was no more than six years old, and the youngest was only three.
Yet each possessed extraordinary features and lively eyes.
"This girl possesses an innate Fire Spirit Body. A natural flame mark resides in her brow. If she enters our Qingyun Sect, she may cultivate the True Scripture of Blazing Fire."
"This boy may come from a poor background, but he was born with divine strength and a pure heart. His bones are also quite unusual. He could become a good body cultivator."
"As for the youngest one,"
When speaking of the last child, a hint of satisfaction flashed in the immortal master's eyes.
"He was born with exceptional spiritual perception. His soul power far exceeds that of ordinary people. A rare talent for alchemy or formation talismans."
"These three… I will take them."
Hearing this, the emperor of the Great Qian Empire trembled with excitement and immediately kowtowed again.
"Many thanks, Immortal Master!"
"To be chosen by the Qingyun Sect is the fortune of these three children and the fortune of the Great Qian Empire itself!"
Seeing this, the chubby immortal master on the right clearly enjoyed the flattery.
He stroked his beard proudly.
"Of course!"
"You must understand that the founding ancestor of Qingyun Sect came from the legendary Immortal Domain."
"He was also an outer disciple of the supreme lineage—the Primordial Immortal Court!"
"Although we do not know the ancestor's current situation, the Qingyun Sect still regards the Primordial Immortal Court as our superior sect!"
"If these three children enter Qingyun Sect, their future will naturally be limitless."
"And if they are fortunate enough to be chosen by the Immortal Court…"
"Heh… that would truly be ascending to the heavens in a single step!"
"Even your Great Qian Empire would receive the Immortal Court's protection and prosper for eternity!"
As expected, once these words were spoken, the emperor of the Great Qian Empire and the countless citizens below all showed fanatical expressions, kowtowing excitedly.
They did not fully understand the true weight behind the words "Immortal Domain" and "Primordial Immortal Court."
But if even the Qingyun Sect was merely a small subordinate sect in the lower realm…
Then just how terrifying must the superior sect be?
They could not imagine it.
They only knew that the Great Qian Empire's ranking among all empires would rise again.
Just then—
BOOM!
A loud crash suddenly echoed across the plaza.
A streak of golden light descended from the sky and slammed violently into a flowerbed at the edge of the plaza, sending soil and broken petals flying everywhere.
It was Dai Mubai, who had just been teleported here.
"Cough… cough… pfft!"
At this moment, Dai Mubai felt as though every bone in his body was about to be crushed by the terrifying gravity of this world.
