Chapter 555 Where I go is none of your business.
Inside a grand hall on Baichao Mountain.
The main hall is vast and divided into eight independent areas, each decorated with its own sect's unique totems and patterns, symbolizing the power division among the eight super sects in this place.
At this moment, in each of the seven designated areas, one person is sitting cross-legged.
They either quietly cultivated themselves or observed the outstanding geniuses in the Hundred Dynasties War through special means.
These people were the leaders sent by the eight major sects to handle this Hundred Dynasties War.
Each one of them was a powerful cultivator at the Life Profound Realm, holding a highly respected position.
The area where the Dao Sect is located is empty—he said he was going out before he attained enlightenment, and he has not returned yet.
"Buzz—"
Within the Fu Sect area, a middle-aged man dressed in a dark blue robe suddenly opened his eyes, his brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of solemnity flashed in his eyes.
"how?"
In the nearby Divine Sect area, an old man dressed in a white robe with gold trim asked a question, his eyes filled with curiosity.
The others also turned their gazes towards it.
They all knew that Bai Qiu, the person in charge of the Fu Sect, had just used his spiritual power to track down the mysterious spiritual power that was spying on Baichao Mountain.
"We lost them."
Bai Qiu shook his head, his tone filled with disbelief: "As soon as my mental energy followed that fluctuation, I was caught in a pitch-black vortex and then mysteriously disappeared."
"disappear?"
Everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
Bai Qiu is a Celestial Talisman Master, and his spiritual power is unmatched by anyone present.
Even he couldn't track them down, and instead they were easily intercepted by the other party?
"It seems that a person with exceptional mental strength has emerged in this Hundred Dynasties War!"
The old man in the golden robe from the Divine Sect said with a smile, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
He was the head of the Divine Sect, named Jin Gu. Although he mainly cultivated Yuan Power, his spiritual power was also quite strong, having already reached the peak of the Heavenly Talisman Master.
The quality of that soul force was so high that even he was shocked.
That's definitely not a level that a Celestial Talisman Master can reach!
"Hmph! Just because you have a little talent doesn't mean you can act recklessly."
In the first area, a middle-aged man with gray hair and wearing a white robe sat upright, his eyes half-open, with a hooked nose, thin lips, and a cold expression.
"The Hundred Dynasty Mountain has not even been opened yet, and he dares to spy on it so brazenly. It is clear that this boy has no sense of awe."
He snorted coldly, his tone filled with disdain: "Once he joins my Yuan Sect in the future, someone will teach him the rules."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the other six people in the hall turned slightly unpleasant.
This Yuan Sect is incredibly domineering!
They haven't even met the person yet, and they already consider them theirs for the taking?
And what's with this talk of "entering my Yuan Gate"?
"Steward Liu, don't speak too soon."
Fu Zongbaiqiu remained calm, his tone neither warm nor cold: "Yuanmen is strong, but this person may not be suitable for Yuanmen. Judging from his spiritual power, he must be on the path of a talisman master."
Ultimately, it's up to him to decide.
The others sat silently, but a meaningful glint flashed in their eyes.
In each Hundred Dynasties War, the sect that wins the championship can select 10% more disciples.
Yuanmen has won the championship for several consecutive years.
Disciples are the fresh blood of a sect. If this continues, the Yuan Sect will inevitably become stronger and stronger, and other sects will probably only be able to look up to it.
Therefore, when someone steps forward to compete with Yuanmen for the championship, they are happy to see the waters turn muddy.
As for whether that person is the champion—
This is beyond doubt.
The Nine-Seal Celestial Talisman Master is comparable to the Nine-Yuan Nirvana!
That alone makes him not only the champion of this tournament, but also the champion of the Hundred Dynasties War in history, unmatched by anyone!
"Oh?"
Liu Tong slowly straightened his white robe, and on the cuffs, a black and white alternating pattern slowly unfolded, like the rise and fall of yin and yang.
"Are you saying that my Yuan Sect can't train talisman masters?"
Liu Tong looked up at Bai Qiu, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
Bai Qiu frowned slightly, about to retort, when he suddenly paused, turned to look outside the restrictions of Baichao Mountain, and a look of disbelief flashed in his eyes.
"Hehe—now there's no need to argue—"
Shenzong Jin Gu chuckled lightly, then turned his head to look as well, his gaze strange: "The main character has arrived!"
Outside Baichao Mountain.
Xiao Bai's figure traversed the void, the space before him as thin as paper, easily torn apart and quickly mended.
With each step he took, he traversed hundreds of miles, and in a short while, he arrived above the wild forest where Baichao Mountain was located.
Below, the endless black mountain range resembles a giant dragon coiled up, with ancient trees reaching for the sky and the roars of monsters echoing everywhere.
In the center of this mountain range, a towering, dark peak rises abruptly from the ground, like a giant sword piercing the sky.
This is Baichao Mountain.
At this moment, Baichao Mountain was shrouded in a layer of pale golden light, with runes flowing on the light.
That was a restriction set up jointly by the eight super sects, protecting the entire mountain peak very well.
Xiao Bai hovered a thousand feet outside Baichao Mountain, standing with his hands behind his back, his black robe fluttering in the wind.
His gaze was calm as he examined the restrictions before him.
This restriction is indeed ingenious; even a powerful expert at the peak of the Life Profound Realm would find it difficult to break in a short time.
The person who set up this formation must have a high level of expertise in formations.
But that's all there is to it.
With Xiao Bai's keen eyesight and spatial control, this level of restriction couldn't stop him.
However, he did not act immediately.
Instead, he looked up at a certain point in the void, a strange smile appearing on his lips.
"People from the Western Xuan Region—"
Xiao Bai muttered to himself.
In his perception, several powerful auras were hidden in the void surrounding Baichao Mountain.
"You've arrived quite early."
Xiao Bai understood.
In the original story, the Western Xuan Domain will launch a surprise attack at the end of the Hundred Dynasties War to seize control of the ancient battlefield.
However, he originally thought that with two months left before the end of the Hundred Dynasties War, the Western Xuan Region should still be in the preparation stage.
Unexpectedly, these people were already in place, waiting to launch a surprise attack when the restrictions on Baichao Mountain were lifted.
but----
"It has nothing to do with me."
Xiao Bai withdrew his gaze.
If these people don't stop him from leaving, then let them all be well.
He was too lazy to meddle in other people's business.
Whether this ancient battlefield ultimately belongs to the Eastern or Western Xuan Domain makes no difference to him.
Anyway, before the next Hundred Dynasties War, the Tianxuan Continent will be plagued by demonic calamity again.
At that time, the alien demons invaded, and the entire continent was at risk of falling, let alone east, west, south, or north.
All this arguing is nothing more than fighting over a sinking ship.
"call out!"
Just then, a streak of light rushed from behind and landed beside Xiao Bai; it was Wu Dao.
"Young friend! Don't act impulsively!"
Wu Dao said urgently, his face filled with anxiety, "Bai Chao Mountain is currently closed and will not open until two months later, after the Hundred Dynasties War ends! If you force your way in now, you will anger all the super sects!"
Xiao Bai glanced at him indifferently: "My time is precious."
"Two months is too long."
Wu Dao was taken aback upon hearing this.
This seat?!
The two words echoed in his mind, making his heart skip a beat.
In the Tianxuan Continent, only the leader of a force or an unparalleled expert whose strength has reached a certain level would refer to themselves in this way.
Even if a young person in the Nirvana Realm has the highest talent, they would never dare to call themselves "this one" in front of the leader of a super sect!
unless----
A chilling thought surfaced in his mind.
"Good heavens—could the person in front of us be an old monster reincarnated?"
The more I thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Combined with what I saw earlier about Xiao Bai condensing his primordial spirit, his composure beyond his years, and his unfathomable spiritual power—
Reincarnated Ones!
Only after the primordial spirit is condensed can a reincarnated person begin to gradually recover memories of their past life.
Xiao Bai had just condensed his primordial spirit when he was in a hurry to leave the ancient battlefield.
Wu Dao was almost certain that the person before him was definitely a reincarnator!
"Cough cough—Little—uh—"
Wu Dao subconsciously wanted to address him as "young friend," but immediately realized it was inappropriate and quickly changed his address: "Sir, the restrictions on Hundred Dynasty Mountain are no small matter. If we force our way through, it will alert the eight sect leaders, and things will escalate!"
His tone no longer carried the air of a senior.
Although Xiao Bai is currently only at the Nirvana Realm, his status as a Reincarnator makes him worthy of such treatment.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai chuckled noncommittally: "None of your sect leaders can come today."
"Can't come?!"
Wu Dao was taken aback, somewhat not understanding the meaning behind his words.
Just as I was about to ask for clarification, I saw the golden light curtain on Baichao Mountain ripple.
Immediately afterwards, seven figures flew out from the mountaintop and hovered in mid-air.
Six men and one woman.
Their auras were different, but all were incredibly powerful. The weakest was at the Lesser Completion of the Life Profound Realm, while the strongest had reached the Greater Completion of the Life Profound Realm!
These are the leaders of the seven major super sects, excluding Wu Dao!
"Enlightenment?! Your Daoist sect dares to break the rules?!"
The middle-aged man in white robes who was leading the group suddenly turned cold and his eyes darkened when he saw Wu Dao standing with Xiao Bai.
The eight super sects had agreed that no one was allowed to contact the participants privately before the end of the Hundred Dynasties War, let alone recruit them in advance.
This is to prevent vicious competition and to ensure fairness.
But now, Wu Dao has not only secretly contacted this black-robed youth, but also brought him to Baichao Mountain!
This is blatant rule-breaking!
"Heh, I haven't broken any rules."
Wu Dao glanced at Liu Tong, his tone indifferent, and at the same time, he subtly stepped back a few paces, keeping his distance from Xiao Bai.
He now regards Xiao Bai as a reincarnated person whose memories have been awakened.
Such a person would have virtually no chance of joining any sect.
Therefore, he gave up his previous idea of forcibly recruiting people and naturally did not want to get involved anymore.
Moreover, such a person's every word and action embodies a strong sense of self and is not easily swayed.
His advice was useless.
Seeing Wu Dao step back, Liu Tong's lips curled into a mocking smile.
He gained the upper hand but failed to capitalize on it; I really overestimated his wisdom before.
The leaders of the other super sects were also taken aback.
They had assumed that Wu Dao and the black-robed youth were in cahoots, but Wu Dao had unexpectedly distanced himself from them.
It seems that he has given up on enlightenment?
Their chance has come!
Just as everyone was about to speak up to recruit them, Liu Tong had already taken the lead.
He looked at Xiao Bai, his tone domineering and unquestionable: "Junior, now that you've come to Hundred Dynasty Mountain, you'll stay by my side and cultivate for the next two months."
"Once the Hundred Dynasties War is over, you will be a disciple of my Yuan Sect!"
Upon hearing this, the others' expressions darkened.
That Liu Tong is utterly shameless!
They actually decided this person's whereabouts directly!
They didn't even ask for the other person's opinion!
"Deacon Liu, aren't you being a bit too hasty?"
The person in charge of the Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace—a beautiful woman in a moon-white dress—speaked coldly: "This young man hasn't even expressed his opinion yet, how do you know he will choose the Yuan Sect?"
"that is!"
The head of the Myriad Puppet Sect—a sinister-looking old man—echoed, "The rules of the Hundred Dynasties War are that participants choose their own sects, not that sects choose for them!"
"Liu Tong, you've crossed the line!"
Others also spoke up, their tone unfriendly.
Liu Tong, however, didn't care at all and smiled faintly: "Rules are rules, but geniuses have their own privileges."
"This child possesses unparalleled talent, worthy of our Yuan Sect making an exception."
As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Bai, a hint of arrogance flashing in his eyes: "Junior, joining the Yuan Sect is your best choice."
"Yuanmen is the number one sect in the Eastern Xuan Region, with the richest resources, the most powerful cultivation techniques, and the most powerful experts."
"Only the Yuan Sect can bring your talent to its fullest potential!"
This statement, though arrogant, is also true.
Yuanmen is indeed the strongest sect in the Eastern Xuan Region. The champions of several consecutive Hundred Dynasties Wars have joined Yuanmen, making its strength increasingly formidable.
Other sects were dissatisfied, but there was nothing they could do.
Everyone looked at Xiao Bai, wondering what his choice would be.
Faced with the recruitment of the number one sect in the Eastern Xuan Region, I doubt anyone could refuse.
However, Xiao Bai's reaction was unexpected by everyone.
He tilted his head, looked at Liu Tong, and said in a calm tone with a hint of amusement, "Where I go is none of your business."
Everyone was stunned by these words.
They never expected the young man in black to say such a thing.
Instead of being grateful for the Yuan Sect's offer of recruitment, they were so rude?
Only enlightenment can bring a silent, cold laugh.
really!
A Reincarnator is a Reincarnator; how could they possibly be controlled by someone at the Life Profound Realm?
"presumptuous!"
Liu Tong's eyes suddenly darkened, and a flash of anger crossed his face: "Young man, don't think that just because you have some talent, you can be arrogant and conceited!"
"How can we be sure that talent hasn't been transformed into real strength, and is merely a mirage?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a violent pressure erupted from Liu Tong, like a torrent of water, and directly enveloped Xiao Bai!
How terrifying is the pressure from someone who has reached the Lesser Completion stage of the Life Profound Realm?
If it were an ordinary Nirvana Realm cultivator, even one at the seventh or eighth level of Nirvana, they would feel as if a divine mountain was pressing down on them under this pressure, making it difficult to breathe and causing their Yuan Power to stagnate.
But Xiao Bai remained calm.
She didn't even move the hem of her clothes.
It was as if that terrifying pressure was just a gentle breeze.
"Um?"
Liu Tong's expression changed slightly.
He felt his pressure fall on Xiao Bai, but it vanished without a trace, like a clay ox sinking into the sea.
How is this possible?!
"What level of cultivation does he possess?!"
At this moment, everyone realized that they only knew that the black-robed youth in front of them had monstrous spiritual power, but they did not know how much Yuan power he had cultivated.
Because there was not the slightest trace of Yuan energy fluctuation leaking from him.
But to be able to so easily withstand the pressure of the Life Profound Realm—
It's definitely not simple!
The next moment—
"Nine Yuan Nirvana?!"
Everyone gasped in shock, their pupils constricted, and their eyes were filled with astonishment.
