Follow the path of Dao from infancy - Chapter 1314 - 296: Rising to Fame

Chapter 1314: Chapter 296: Rising to Fame
As Chu Xiangtian’s words fell, the black ancient Immortal Monument suddenly trembled slightly. Immediately afterward, the golden number ranked first at the top of the monument transformed into a blazing golden light, shining down on the crowd below.
Where the light shone, directly in the territory of the Imperial Family at the forefront, it enveloped an old, hunchbacked elder.
The elder wore the golden robe of a Yan dragon, and no other members of the Imperial Family dared to approach within several meters around him.
At this moment, as the golden beam enveloped him, the elder’s expression was extremely calm as he slowly soared towards the ancient Immortal Platform.
“Is that Chu Tianhuang, who is ranked first?”
“To think he appears so aged. With his power, maintaining the appearance of youth or even adolescence should be effortless, right?”
“What do you know? He’s beyond caring about appearances.”
“You’re wrong. I’ve heard he’s cultivating a very special Cultivation Technique. Such an image might be more in line with his Dao Heart.”
“Is this the number one prodigy of our Great Yan Chu? I’ve heard he’s only a little over two thousand five hundred soul years, yet he’s unmatched in the Desolate Domain.”
“I’ve never seen him until now, despite so long.”
Disciples from various sects looked up, gazing in awe at the elder enveloped in the golden light.
Before he appeared, everyone was already familiar with the first-ranked name, expecting it to be a peerless, extraordinary youth. Who’d have thought he’d appear as an elderly figure?
Nonetheless, being only a little over two thousand years old, he’s definitely considered young and vibrant. If he wished, he could revert to a youthful appearance at any time.
As the first golden light shone, the second golden number on the Immortal Monument also turned into a thick golden beam, shooting towards a particular place.
That was the location of the Bamboo Rain Pavilion, where the sect’s Elders shielded the entire sect with their Dao Domain to prevent conversations from being overheard by others.
And at this moment, as this golden light shone on the Dao Domain, it directly pierced through, enveloping a youth clad in snow-white clothes.
The youth had a sword at his waist, a face as noble as jade, with sword-like eyebrows that reached his temples, so beautiful it was hard to tell gender, lips bright red, with a cold white complexion. Though the soil beneath him was as red as if burned by fire, he exuded an icy cold aura.
“That’s Boya Xuejian. I’ve heard he’s a Chaos Creature, with no parents, monstrously terrifying!”
“If not for Chu Tianhuang, he’d overwhelm the entire Yan Chu Royal Family, terrifying indeed!”
“Chaos Creatures, unimaginable, incomparable.”
“Even the ancient bloodlines of the Emperor Clan can’t compare, let alone us mortals and our flesh.”
People discussed, eyes revealing gravity.
Within the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Tower, disciples couldn’t help but glance at a silhouette of a snow-clad youth.
Tian Hongyi!
This is the chief of their Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Tower, renowned as thunder, currently ranked sixth!
Soon, that golden beam will shine on this Senior Brother, making him known to the world.
“I want to see who that tenth person truly is!”
In an unnoticed corner, Zhang Xuanyu’s face turned cold, staring fixedly at the Immortal Monument, wanting to see where the tenth golden beam would shine.
At this time, as Boya Xuejian also flew onto the Immortal Platform, the third golden number also shot out, and it was an Imperial Family member, impressively middle-aged looking, but his eyes emitted a thunderous majesty.
Next came the fourth, fifth…
With the golden light shining, cheers erupted within the Star Pavilion.
The golden light ranked fifth shone on Xing Lan, her exquisite, graceful figure seemed weightless, floating into the air.
Glancing down at her sect master and familiar brothers and sisters, Xing Lan remained calm, gracefully flying towards the Immortal Platform.
“That Xing Lan, I’ve heard she’s nurtured by an ancient tree from the Chaotic Star, born with a Taoist Body, another terrifying monster.”
“In terms of foundation, she’s not much different from Boya Xuejian.”
“I wonder how far they’ve ventured into the Desolate Domain.”
“To cultivate to the Immortal Lord Realm within three thousand years of soul life is an exceptional monster, without exception. My distant cousin, with forty thousand years of soul life, still can’t break through that threshold.”
Disciples from various sects admired. Most of them have cultivated to the True Immortal Realm Tenth Layer, yet the foundational differences between realms vary, resulting in significant disparities in combat strength.
And the difference between the True Immortal Realm Tenth Layer and the Immortal Monarch Realm seems like just a threshold, but it can stop millions.
As the golden light shone, this time it shot towards the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Tower’s location.
Countless gazes followed, watching Tian Hongyi, clad in snow clothes, ascend, carrying the glory of the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Tower, up to the Immortal Platform.
“The Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Tower reportedly has two such monsters this time, aside from Tian Hongyi, the eleventh ranked Zhang Xuanyu is also a terrifying monster; originally in the top ten but was edged out.”
“The foundation of the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Tower is truly strong, capable of nurturing such caliber geniuses.”
“Of course, all of Yan and Chu’s Sword Cultivators gather at the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Tower. Other sects have Sword Dao, but they can’t compare to the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Tower.”
“The Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Tower is the true Sword Cultivation Sacred Land!”
People discussed, some Sword Cultivators from other sects, couldn’t help but gleam with a hint of yearning.
Li Tie Mu and Zhou Qingyun’s expressions immediately darkened upon hearing this, as no one mentioned the Great Dream Nine Abysses’ Sword Abyss. Compared to the Ten Thousand Mountains Sword Tower, Sword Abyss is merely a branch of Great Dream Nine Abysses, not even matching Spear Abyss’s foundation, seemingly forgotten and overlooked by people.
“My Sword Abyss also possesses Emperor Sword Intent. My Sword Abyss founder was once guided by the Immortal Emperor, but unfortunately, no one knows of it anymore.”
