Chapter 161: Chapter 157 Qin Tianzhong: Good heavens! Old Chen’s grandson?

Outside Kunhe Hall, the crowd was packed.

With dawn just breaking, over a thousand disciples from the North and South Peaks had already gathered in the White Jade Plaza.

The disciples of the two peaks were distinctly separated, each occupying one side of the White Jade Plaza.

Along the railing edges of the White Jade Plaza, battle flags were planted, fluttering in the wind with loud flapping sounds.

War drums were also beating, producing deep thumping sounds.

Murmured whispers constantly emanated from the disciples of the two peaks.

Suddenly, a cry of astonishment rose from among the crowd.

"The Holy Master has arrived! And several Supreme Elders from our Holy Land are here too!"

Instantly, countless disciples from the North and South Peaks turned to look at Kunhe Hall.

Several figures emerged step by step from Kunhe Hall and stood at the entrance.

At the forefront was naturally the Celestial Wave Saint Master, dressed today in a pure white robe, his head of white hair meticulously tied behind.

He stood with hands behind his back, his wrinkled eyes filled with chaos, obscuring any hint of emotion.

Behind him were several elders in Star Battle Taoist Robes, each possessing immense power far beyond the likes of Fu Long from the North and South Peaks.

They were the Supreme Elders of the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands!

The so-called Supreme Elders were composed of elders from the North and South Peaks who had either served their time or disciples who had stepped down from the True Disciple position.

Their power slightly falls short of the Peak Leaders, yet they surpass ordinary Elders, embodying the true foundation of the Celestial Wave Sacred Lands.

"For so many years, our Celestial Wave Sacred Lands’ competition between the two peaks hasn’t seen such excitement!"

"In the past, the two peaks’ competition always resulted in a domineering victory for the North Peak disciples, so much so that there was no real contest, but this time it’s different. One is the undefeated Triple Crown King, and the other is the Double Limit Breaker believed only to exist in ancient history. This battle... it’s truly hard to say who will win or lose."

Several Supreme Elders gazed outside Kunhe Hall, speaking with smiles.

"In my opinion, although Xiao Ping is considered a Double Limit Breaker only found in ancient history, he has just recently broken into the True Self Realm, and that too after Moo Yuemei did not hesitate to use a heaven-defiance fate-altering technique for him to forcibly break through into the True Self Realm. He lacks foundation and understanding.

Gai Rong, on the other hand, is different; he has been in the True Self Realm for nearly ten years, having experienced no fewer than hundreds of battles. Xiao Ping is unlikely to be his match."

A Supreme Elder shook his head and said.

Upon these words falling, the other Supreme Elders nodded slightly in agreement.

That’s what most of them were thinking.

They were certain.

If this battle were to take place ten years later, then undoubtedly the winner would be the exceptionally gifted Xiao Ping!

But at this moment, the victor could only be Gai Rong!

"Liuting, you have always had a talent for inference; what do you think? Who will win between Gai Rong and Xiao Ping in this battle?"

Several Supreme Elders looked towards a gaunt old man with mixed gray-black hair and asked with a smile.

The gaunt old man shook his head and said: "I don’t know. I have seen both of their futures, but both have obscured the heavenly secrets, leaving the future in chaos."

"Really?"

Several Supreme Elders nodded slightly.

"Holy Master, who do you think will win this battle?"

An elderly man in black clothes, standing behind Qin Tianzhong, asked in a hoarse voice.

"Victory or defeat is not important; what matters is who can be useful to our Celestial Wave Sacred Lands."

Qin Tianzhong spoke calmly.

He looked towards the South Peak direction, a faint smile appearing on his face.

"Chen Daoyan, that old miser, is truly generous, sending his Double Limit Breaker grandson to our Celestial Wave Sacred Lands. Isn’t he afraid I’ll steal him away?"

As soon as he finished, the eyes of the black-clothed elder standing behind him shrank.

"Holy Master, are you saying... Xiao Ping is Chen Daoyan’s grandson?"

Qin Tianzhong did not reply but mused with interest:

"No wonder back then, when the Ziwei Chen Family’s Nine Ancient Patterner Chen Zhaosheng encountered an accident, that old miser didn’t go insane despite protecting his shortcoming. So, it seems he was hiding a treasure grandson."

Shaking his head, Qin Tianzhong yawned and smiled:

"Old Chu, speaking of which, it’s been a long time since I last saw Elder Chen, hasn’t it? Once this competition ends, why don’t we find some time to visit the Ziwei Chen Family and have a good chat with that old miser and reminisce?"

The black-clothed elder chuckled dryly upon hearing this:

"Holy Master, I’m just afraid that after meeting Chen Daoyan, the two of you will exchange barely a few words, and then start fighting."

Qin Tianzhong paused, then chuckled and shook his head: "Fight for what? We’re all getting on in years, there’s nothing worth fighting over anymore."

After a brief pause, Qin Tianzhong suddenly became silent, inexplicably turning somewhat sorrowful.

"Regardless of whether it’s me or that old miser, our era has already passed; this era belongs to these young ones." He shook his head, feeling somewhat wistful.

Just as the black-clothed elder wanted to reply.

The White Jade Plaza suddenly became restless.

"Senior Brother is here!"

Following an exclamation.

The crowded North Peak disciples opened a path.

A sleeveless black-garbed figure walked up the mountain step by step.

Compared to the burly disciples of the North Peak, Gai Rong’s physique could only be considered lean.

With his palms joined, a solemn expression, his loose black hair cascading down, his entire skin was covered in black Sanskrit Buddhist texts, as he walked, inexplicably resembling a monk who had walked through thousands of mountains.

"Gai Rong is here."

All the Supreme Elders felt invigorated.

"This battle is Gai Rong’s concluding fight; after this battle ends, Gai Rong will also become the first undefeated True Disciple!"

"Haha, after today ends, Gai Rong will be on par with us in the Supreme Elder Hall."

The Supreme Elders spoke with smiles.

After arriving at the White Jade Plaza, Gai Rong simply nodded slightly at the North Peak disciples, then glanced at the South Peak disciples, where Chen Zhixing had yet to arrive. He sat cross-legged, eyes focused inward, quietly waiting.

...

...

Meanwhile.

On the other side.

On a mountain path leading to Kunhe Hall.

Chen Zhixing’s long black hair was tied with twine as he walked steadily along the mountain road.

Beside him, Li Ran and Guann Tianyu accompanied him along the way.

"Junior Brother Xiao, you must know that Gai Rong isn’t some Innate Divine Body or a Limit Breaker; even his talent is merely that of a Seven Ancient Patterner. Why is he able to consistently suppress numerous geniuses? He has ruled the North and South Peaks for a full ten years without ever being defeated?" Guann Tianyu asked.

"Why?"

Chen Zhixing raised an eyebrow, also curious.

"All of this has to do with a Cultivation Technique of the Flesh Body Tao considered heaven-defying that Gai Rong practices as well as a Great Buddha Relic." Guann Tianyu said solemnly.

"A Cultivation Technique of the Flesh Body Tao considered heaven-defying?"

Chen Zhixing’s eyes sparkled slightly.
