As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life - Chapter 853 - 269: Daring to Sneak Attack Emperor Xi Xi, A Waterfall-Like Column of Purple Aura Divine Talent [Monthly Ticket Request]_3
“Li Nuanxi!”
Ao Qingqing gasped heavily, for her little aunt…
She, Ao Qingqing, could not lose!
Beyond those prodigies listed by the Qiankun Gambling House for bets,
there were also many Divine Children from various noble families, state cities, and neighboring dao cities, who had gathered to challenge the Qiankun Small Cave Heaven.
Figures like Yun E, Zhou Peng, and Su Li—all clan juniors—ascended gracefully into the air.
During this time, some prodigies from noble families failed in their attempts to break into the Qiankun Cave Heaven.
This brought clarity to many…
The first trial, the innate talent test, had already started at the entrance to the cave.
The failure rate was shockingly high.
Most prodigies struggled hard to pass through the entrance, crashing into the air wall and finding every step excruciating.
In the end, they were expelled.
Crash, crash…
The spring rain grew increasingly torrential.
Many Divine Children who could not even cross the entrance were drenched by the relentless spring rain, as if doused with a bucket of cold water, their bodies frozen stiff.
A heavy silence descended upon Daping.
Sighs echoed across the area.
Clearly, the final assessment for the Qian Yuan Divine Sect Master Great God’s direct disciple was far stricter than any other in history.
In the past, the selection process was never so harsh from the very first trial.
Essentially, seventy percent of the Divine Children were eliminated.
One talent test alone wiped out seventy percent of the contenders.
Jingle jingle…
Suddenly,
a crisp bell chimed melodiously, its tinkling sound cutting through the torrential spring rain.
On the other side of Daping, a figure cloaked entirely in a black robe slowly walked forward.
The eyes of many powerful individuals swept in that direction, revealing intrigue and astonishment.
Three figures approached, two tall and one small, all shrouded in black robes.
The child among them was also cloaked, walking from the direction of Qianyuan Dao City, with a bell hanging around his neck, jingling endlessly.
The bell was purple and emitted a remarkable, overpowering divine presence.
Below the White Jade Arch,
Lv Taibai’s gaze lifted slightly, his fine silver strands shimmering.
Not just Lv Taibai—every elder, including Li Che, fixed their eyes on the approaching trio.
Li Che’s gaze tightened slightly.
In an instant, his line of sight was drawn irresistibly to the purple bell.
Star Plucking Pupil!
Endless Analysis, Peering into Illusion and Returning to Truth!
[Divine Weapon (Middle Rank of Five Elders): Tai Sui Purple Gold Bell]
Li Che’s eyes flashed imperceptibly with intrigue!
A divine weapon of the middle rank of the Five Elders?!
This grade was absolutely exceptional.
Yet it was merely hanging brazenly around a child’s neck as though flaunting it openly?
Who was this newcomer?
“Da Li Royal Court.”
A faint voice sounded—the words came from Gongshu Jingjun, seated not far away.
“These three… are Divine Cultivators from the Da Li Royal Court.”
“I thought Da Li wouldn’t send anyone this time around, but unexpectedly, they’ve still sent a prodigy… Clearly, the Great Witch God from Da Li must have foreseen the Sect Master planning to use this final direct disciple to appoint the Young Sect Master…”
Gongshu Jingjun spoke gravely.
“The Sect Master already has a disciple from the Da Li Royal Court, known as Chi Kuang, a member of the Da Li Royal Family…”
“The individual before us, wearing the Purple Gold Bell… should be a descendant of the Great Witch God’s lineage.”
The shadow with the Purple Gold Bell around its neck removed its hood, unveiling a head full of vibrant purple hair. His face was painted with colors, and the corners of his mouth curled upward.
“Descendant of the Great Witch God—Jin Taixui.”
The youth’s gaze radiated arrogance and audacity, his purple hair thrashing wildly amidst the spring rain.
“Greetings, Qianyuan Sect Master Great God.”
“The Great Witch God has praised the Sect Master’s swordsmanship as transcendent, peerless, and worthy of being called a Land Sword Immortal.”
Lv Taibai, seated on his chair, slightly nodded: “The Great Witch God flatters me.”
“Thus, the Great Witch God sent me here, hoping to see whether I might have the opportunity to become a disciple of the Sect Master Great God…”
“I’ve heard a multitude of talents from Great Vista have gathered here. Tai Sui, coming alone from the Great Desert, also wishes to see if they… will disappoint Tai Sui.”
The purple-haired youth curled his lips into a radiant smile, one full of light and clarity.
But his tone carried undeniable arrogance and brazenness.
Lv Taibai’s gaze remained indifferent.
“Go ahead, you will not be disappointed.”
As his words fell,
the purple-haired youth Jin Taixui offered Lv Taibai a respectful gesture in the Da Li Royal Court’s ceremonial manner. The jingling of the Purple Gold Bell echoed hauntingly, releasing a captivating force.
Afterward, the purple-haired youth, his black robe cascading, moved toward the entrance of the Qiankun Small Cave Heaven, accompanied by the sound of his bell.
Passing by numerous defeated Divine Children drenched by the rain,
his eyes brimmed with disdain and arrogance, not sparing the failures a single glance.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, including many spectators waiting for a show,
Jin Taixui collided with the air wall of the Qiankun Small Cave Heaven.
He paused briefly, then seamlessly passed through, his movements as fluid as those of Xi Xi when she previously crossed the entrance.
In an instant,
the atmosphere grew heavy, leaving only the sound of rain pounding and thunder roaring.
Many Divine Children, unable to pass the entrance, felt their limbs grow colder, sinking further into despair.
“Jin Taixui… A descendant of the Great Witch God lineage, the younger brother of the legendary Jinmaohou who dazzled both Great Vista and Da Li, hailed as a Martial Saint born of the heavens?”
Gongshu Jingjun furrowed his brow and said.
“That Jinmaohou, now only fifteen years old… His cultivation is already unfathomable, and he’s said to have challenged every cultivator under thirty years old in the Da Li Royal Court…”
“He even claimed he’d cross the Great Desert alone and enter Great Vista to challenge all its cultivators below thirty…”
“This Jin Taixui… comes with ill intent.”
Li Che, hearing Gongshu Jingjun’s analysis, couldn’t help but flash a glimmer of intrigue in his gaze.
