Evergreen Longhao smiled. He wanted to see what cards the Skymist Immortal Empire had up their sleeves. They wanted to meet his father just like that? Although the Skymist Immortal Empire is strong, a mere prince from their empire didn’t command enough prestige to meet the Evergreen Immortal Emperor. It would only be good enough if the Skymist Immortal Emperor came himself.
Turning his gaze over, he could see over thousands of people. These thousands were made up of over ten different major powers. Naturally, the strongest few were the peak-tier powers of the Eastern Regions namely, the Skymist Immortal Empire, Paragon Sword Sect, Sky Demon Palace, Taihua Immortal Dynasty and the sect Qin Wentian was representing - the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect.
Evergreen Longhao’s gaze paused momentarily on Qin Wentian before shifting aside, it was as though he didn’t know of this person. He had never met Qin Wentian formally before. Before this, when Qin Wentian broke through to immortality, he knew of him through his immortal sense. But this time around, Qin Wentian was here representing the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect.
"My Evergreen Immortal Empire has never organized such a majestic and impressive gathering before. Now that we are all able to get together at once and allow the juniors of the younger generations to spar against each other, it can still be considered as something of interest. I wonder what method of sparring does Prince Skymist have in mind?" Evergreen Longhao sat on the host seat, exuding imposingness. His words were smooth, revealing no flaws at all.
Both Evergreen Longhao and Skymist Jiang might look young but they are both characters who have lived for over 10,000 years. They naturally have witnessed many storms before. Compared to other immortal king characters, they can be considered extremely young. Hence, their looks now resembled that of young men.
"They can spar however they like, there’s no need to be too strict and harp on the exact method. As long as there are people from any powers willing to fight, they should get a chance to. How about it?" Skymist Jiang indifferently replied.
"Alright we will comply with the wishes of Brother Skymist." Evergreen Longhao straightforwardly replied. After that he raised his wine cup, "Everyone, I Evergreen Longhao will respectfully toast you all first. Please."
The experts here would still give Evergreen Longhao face. They all respectfully raised their cups and returned the toast. After all, Evergreen Longhao was a prince of the Evergreen Immortal Empire, the son of the Evergreen Immortal Emperor. He himself was also an expert at the immortal king level and this place was his territory.
At this moment, many more people appeared behind Evergreen Longhao. These were all the marquises and kings from the empire. Since the Skymist Immortal Empire wanted a challenge, they would answer it with force. How could the elite juniors of their Evergreen Immortal Empire stay away at a time like this?
"Yu Feng, why don’t you take the first round?" Skymist Jiang spoke unhurriedly. This time, there were several hundreds of experts that came with the Skymist entourage. Regardless of immortal kings or immortal-foundation experts, there were many of them. Also, since the Skymist Immortal Empire dares to challenge the Evergreen Immortal Empire, they must have brought their elites with them.
"I hear and obey, your highness." A young man shot forward, instantly appearing at the specially constructed battle platform. His cultivation base wasn’t high, only at the first-level of immortal-foundation yet he exuded an aura of extraordinaryness. This young man named Yu Feng turned and stared at the direction of Evergreen Longhao as he spoke, "I wish to experience the strength of geniuses from the imperial palace of the Evergreen Immortal Empire. Please guide me."
"The first battle. Seems like the Skymist Immortal Empire is really intent on this challenge." Everyone mused. Also, they didn’t send out high-level experts. They started with a first-level immortal-foundation character.
"Your highness."
"Your highness, please allow me to." Many descendants of nobles were eager to step up. Evergreen Longhao’s eyes glanced over at them. He understood that although this was a challenge by a first-level immortal, in truth it was exceedingly dangerous.
He remembered the time when Qin Wentian just established his immortal foundation back then when he was in their Evergreen Immortal Empire. The him then, who among the descendants of nobilities could stand equally against him?
Back then, Qin Wentian’s immortal foundation was simply perfect. The moment he broke through, he could already effortlessly sweep over many immortal-foundation experts from the same generation. His combat prowess was so strong that it was overbearing and from a certain perspective if one had a high-grade immortal foundation during the first level, they would definitely have extraordinary strength. Their advantage was far ahead compared to their peers, at a place ordinary first-level immortals could never reach. Evergreen Longhao could sense that this challenger was also someone similar to Qin Wentian - somebody who established a very high-grade immortal foundation the moment they broke through and ascended to immortality.
There were many experts in the imperial palace, but only a scarce few were at the first-level of immortal foundation. If there was someone similar to how strong Qin Wentian was back then, there was basically no need for Evergreen Longhao to worry.
If Qing`er was here, there would surely be no problems but Qing`er currently was at her master’s, Matriarch Ji’s place to cultivate. It was unknown when she would return.
"Go on then." Finally, Evergreen Longhao’s eyes landed on a young man. This young man was a descendant of nobility and had extremely outstanding talent. He could already be considered among the most powerful first-level immortal-foundation characters that were present here today.
He stepped up the platform and faced off against Yu Feng. Yu Feng clasped his hand and spoke, "Please guide me."
"Hypocrite." The descendant of nobility from the Evergreen Immortal Empire cursed in a low voice. His aura gushed forth as a gigantic golden axe manifested in the air. Streams of tyrannical sharpness radiated from it, able to tear apart everything. He took a step forward as that axe cleaved down, a beam of golden axe light containing startling power shot out, seemingly able to cleave Yu Feng into two.
Yu Feng also suddenly erupted with immense power. His immortal foundation thrummed as immortal light enveloped his body. It felt like he was encased in a protective armor of immortal runes. This was the characteristic of unique physiques.
A supreme eruptive might exploded froth from the battle axe. Yu Feng stomped on the ground and a circular wheel of light expanded from his body, protecting him. The golden axe light slammed into the wheel, yet it had no way to continue sinking it.
"This defense?" The eyes of everyone stiffened. That attack from the expert of the Evergreen Immortal Empire was already very powerful yet it had no way to break through Yu Feng’s defense at all. The impact merely caused the immortal runes on the wheel to shift about as they transformed into resplendent runic words that seemed as though they were about to rush out.
That descendant of nobility roared in rage as he unleashed the might from his immortal foundation frenziedly, transforming the air above him into a starry space. His gigantic axe cleaved through the skies, madly slashing downwards with apocalyptic might.
The ancient words from Yu Feng suddenly metamorphosed into millions of mini-runes that shot out at the same time, smashing towards his opponent’s immortal foundation. A beam of dazzling golden axe light flashed, but they were unable to block all the runes. Yu Feng continued walking forward, moving closer and closer to his opponent as he mounted on the pressure.
Finally, the golden beam of axe light shattered. Yu Feng coldly shouted as the remnants of his attack slammed into his opponent, causing the descendant of nobility to cough out blood as he was flung through the air before slamming into one of the protective screens of lights erected to prevent the aftershock impacts.
Yu Feng won an overwhelming victory. Everyone had their own thoughts as they spectated this battle. That descendant of nobility was already very powerful in terms of his combat prowess. However, Yu Feng was even more extraordinary, he had a tyrannical physique, and that fearsome mighty axe of his opponent couldn’t break through the wheel of protective light generated from his body. Clearly, the Skymist Immortal Empire came prepared. They were very confident in their victory.
"Yu Feng, why did you deal such a heavy strike? No matter what, we are still guests of the Evergreen Immortal Empire." Skymist Jiang indifferently spoke. Yu Feng clasped his hands to the young man from the Evergreen Immortal Empire he injured, "It’s hard to avoid injuries during a spar, I hope you won’t blame me for this."
"Hmph." The expression on that expert’s face turned unsightly as he walked down the platform. Being defeated in this battle meant he had just thrown away the face of the Evergreen Immortal Empire.
"Is there still anyone who wishes to spar against Yu Feng?" Skymist Jiang spoke. Nobody replied, given how strong Yu Feng was, it was almost impossible for people at the first-level of immortal-foundation to win against him. To the Evergreen Immortal Empire, they would surely be ridiculed if they sent out a second-level immortal to answer the question.
"How about those from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect?" Skymist Hai turned his gaze over, staring right at Qin Wentian as he coldly spoke. "Earlier, weren’t you very disrespectful to me? Now that we have a chance to spar, why don’t you get some of your members to step upon the platform? Naturally if we spar against the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect, neither side shall be responsible for any injuries or deaths."
Undoubtedly, Skymist Hai was announcing a challenge towards Qin Wentian. The eyes of everyone turned over only to see Qin Wentian smiling, "There are no first-level immortals among the people from the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect that came on this expedition. We will not bully the weak."
"You can step up and fight if you want." Skymist Hai spoke. Qin Wentian was merely a second-level immortal-foundation character, he didn’t mind allowing Qin Wentian to fight against Yu Feng..
"Me?" A strange smile flickered in Qin Wentian’s eyes. He glanced at Yu Feng on the platform only to see Yu Feng clasping his hand, "Please guide me."
"What an arrogant person." Qin Wentian stared at Yu Feng. Although Yu Feng’s tone sounded polite, it was in fact extremely arrogant. But then again, this man had a king-grade immortal foundation at the first-level, a supreme combat prowess and an unique physique. He did have the qualifications to be arrogant.
The people of the Evergreen Immortal Empire all stared at Qin Wentian, they actually all were hoping that Qin Wentian would step out. This fellow manifested a heavenly phenomenon when he established his immortal foundation. His combat prowess was unparalleled and now that he was already at the second-level, he would definitely be more tyrannical than before. It wouldn’t be a problem for him to crush Yu Feng.
"Please." Yu Feng continued when he saw that Qin Wentian didn’t say anything. He urged Qin Wentian to battle twice, from this one could see how arrogant he was.
"Maybe after you go back and cultivate tens of years more, would you be qualified enough to challenge me. The you now is far from worthy." Qin Wentian domineeringly replied in response to the two attempts of challenge. Although Qin Wentian’s voice was calm, it clearly manifested his tyranny and arrogance. This caused the gazes of everyone to freeze as they stared at him.
One was more arrogant than the other. This Yu Feng’s combat prowess was extremely terrifying. To be honest, it wasn’t arrogant for him to challenge second-level immortals given how strong his combat prowess was. Yu Feng was now at the peak of the first level, yet Qin Wentian said he isn’t even worthy to challenge him.
"Stop bragging." Skymist Hai coldly spoke. "Everyone knows how to boast. Try it if you dare."
"Do you want to try fighting me then? I don’t mind the fact that you have a cultivation base higher than me." Qin Wentian’s eyes flickered with sharpness, directly staring straight at Skymist Hai!
