Chapter 1244: Chapter 1244: The Dark Horse in Hiding
"Xu Nian is so strong? He suddenly rose to sixteenth place?" Shi Guangxu looked at the rankings on the water curtain, unable to contain his surprise and said.
"Xu Nian’s strength is indeed formidable. For him, these geniuses pose no threat at all. After all, as a Space Controller, he has an innate advantage." The Tianbao Pavilion Master sighed and said.
"Indeed, Space Profound Argumentation—a talent so enviable. This kind of profound argumentation emerges once in several hundred billion." Mu Residence Lord also sighed along.
Even as someone rated as a genius, he was immensely envious of Xu Nian’s Space Profound Argumentation.
The prowess displayed by the Undying Devouring Sky Beast Avatar also shocked and envied many in the crowd.
Even the Four Great Sects and the Denor Emperor were amazed.
"Undying Devouring Sky Beast? A Void-type Demon Beast, I didn’t expect such a legendary beast to appear in the Cultivation World. Isn’t this beast mightier than the Dragon Clan? It’s said to feed on True Dragons. No wonder it can master Space Profound Argumentation." The Denor Emperor looked at the figure on the water curtain and couldn’t help but comment.
Since the Undying Devouring Sky Beast Avatar had altered its appearance, he didn’t realize that the beast on the water curtain was Xu Nian.
Meanwhile, in the VIP chambers of the Reincarnation Sect, a stunningly beautiful mature woman sat elegantly inside.
The breathtaking beauty of her appearance was suffocating, and her voluptuous yet not overly plump figure left an entrancing impression.
"Undying Devouring Sky Beast, the surprises in this Immortal Order Competition are endless. I just wonder what level of comprehension this guy has achieved in Space Profound Argumentation." Tantai Xun Yan mused, a faint smile playing on her exquisite face.
Even though Tantai Xun Yan’s age exceeded five hundred, she remained one of the top beauties in the Cultivation World.
Her status and strength only served to evoke an immense urge to conquer her.
Of course, they also knew it was impossible!
After all, Tantai Xun Yan’s constitution was exceptionally unique. For a man to earn the chance to unite with her was unlikely in the entire Cultivation World.
Similarly, in the VIP chambers of the Chaos Sky Sect, a middle-aged man looked at the Undying Devouring Sky Beast Avatar with curiosity in his eyes.
"Father, is Space Profound Argumentation really that powerful? Why do I find it unremarkable? If he battles with Sister Hong Xi, he will surely lose." Meng Xiyao asked, puzzled.
She had no interest whatsoever in the man on the water curtain.
She truly wanted to see Xu Nian.
Her father had mentioned that one of the Denor Empire’s competitors in this competition was called Xu Nian, and she wondered if it was the same person she met on Tianlan Star.
"Space Profound Argumentation is indeed strong. Your Sister Hong Xi is superior because his control over it is still weak. I estimate it’s only at the Third Level of Profound Argumentation. If he could reach the Fifth Level, he could battle your Sister Hong Xi. If he reached the Sixth Level, even she wouldn’t be his match." The Chaos Sky Sect Master said.
"That strong?" Meng Xiyao widened her eyes in surprise.
She never thought Space Profound Argumentation could be so powerful.
Sister Hong Xi was a master of the Eighth Level of Profound Argumentation Realm. Could Space Profound Argumentation really prevail with just six levels?
This instantly made her view the man more favorably.
"Father, on which forbidden island is Xu Nian? Can you help me find him?" Meng Xiyao quickly asked.
In the VIP chambers, there was a separate water curtain that could be fully controlled by its occupants, allowing them to view anyone they desired with ease.
The Chaos Sky Sect Master felt a bit helpless.
Ever since his little girl returned from Tianlan Star, she hadn’t forgotten about a young man named Xu Nian.
She stubbornly insisted that he bring Xu Nian back to the Chaos Sky Sect.
During that time, he indeed sent people to search for Xu Nian but to no avail.
When Xu Nian finally showed up, it turned out he was already a descendant of the Divine Demon Sect and had a deadly feud with Lin Hao, of the Chaos Sky Sect.
After that, he abandoned the idea of bringing him back to the Chaos Sky Sect.
However, he was surprised to find that Xu Nian’s growth was terrifyingly rapid.
In just a few years, he advanced to the Earth Immortal Realm.
"Buzz!"
With a thought, the water curtain began to change.
Then, a figure appeared before the Chaos Sky Sect Master and Meng Xiyao.
Yes, the owner of the figure was indeed Xu Nian.
Of course, he was the Divine Demon Avatar Xu Nian.
"It’s him, it’s really him, Father. He saved me back then. So he came to participate in the Immortal Order Competition too." Meng Xiyao exclaimed excitedly.
"Yes, he’s participating. But with only seven points? His strength is too weak. At this rate, he’s likely to die on this forbidden island." The Chaos Sky Sect Master said.
"What should we do, Father? He can’t die! Oh, he’s on Forbidden Island No. 76, the same island as Sister Hong Xi. Father, can you ask Sister to help him?" Meng Xiyao said anxiously.
The Chaos Sky Sect Master looked helpless, realizing his daughter might have feelings for this guy!
That was no good news.
This guy was a descendant of Divine Demon Sect, bound to clash with the Four Great Sects one day.
Perhaps the Chaos Sky Sect would be involved in that battle too.
"I can’t help. The forbidden islands are completely sealed. Even if I wanted to notify your Sister Hong Xi, she couldn’t receive it, and it’s likely too late. A reasonably strong fellow is already approaching him." The Chaos Sky Sect Master said.
"Who? Who dares to harm him? I’ll split him in two!" Meng Xiyao said, gritting her teeth and showing a resentful expression.
Indeed, on the water curtain, a man appeared before Xu Nian.
"It’s a loose cultivator, a formidable one. I know him—Profound Argumentation Fifth Level. With such strength, reaching the top thousand is not a problem. Your Xu Nian might die here." The Chaos Sky Sect Master said, feeling a bit relieved.
If he died, his little girl would give up.
At worst, he would avenge her symbolically.
Meng Xiyao bit her lips, feeling unwilling, her eyes reddening as she dared not look at the water curtain anymore.
"What?" Beside her, the Chaos Sky Sect Master suddenly exclaimed in shock.
Meng Xiyao turned her head in surprise towards the water curtain, discovering that Xu Nian was still standing there unharmed.
Whereas the formidable loose cultivator her father spoke of was reduced to a pulp on the ground.
Meng Xiyao immediately burst into happy tears, looking at the figure in the water curtain proudly and said, "I told you my Brother Xu Nian is strong, these little sidekicks are no match for him."
After speaking, she glanced at her father proudly, as if she was showing off.
The Chaos Sky Sect Master frowned, looking at Xu Nian in the water curtain, showing a look of surprise, murmuring to himself: "I didn’t expect this guy to be so strong. Profound Argumentation Seventh Level—with such strength, he can enter the top ten of the Immortal Order Competition. Is he planning to astonish everyone at the final moment?"
The Chaos Sky Sect Master looked at Xu Nian, still listed at over five thousand in the rankings, stunned.
Perhaps, besides him, no one else had noticed this dark horse quietly lurking.
