I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

The intense agony allowed him to break free from that soul-seducing voice.

Enduring the excruciating pain, he fled frantically.

"Such a ruthless person,"

a woman from Jingxue Palace remarked with a tone full of admiration.

"Run for your lives, notify the powerhouses of Upper Sect, calamity has befallen Jingxue Palace, the snow in Ice State is melting..."

Enduring the soul-searing pain, the Divine Refinement Celestial who escaped from Ice State encountered another group of martial artists who had come to explore the surging disaster and bellowed out these words.

"What has happened?"

The martial artist, despite intense soul agony of his own, relayed the situation.

All were horrified.

One of the Divine Refinement Celestials at the pinnacle spoke gravely, "Send a message to Hongzhou promptly. I'll head to the location of Jingxue Palace to investigate."

After speaking, he hastily took a wide berth around the area, circling a great distance to the location of Jingxue Palace.

Meanwhile, several groups of martial artists entered Ice State, only to disappear without a trace eventually.

"Little brother in the water, come up quickly!"

A woman from Jingxue Palace, having left Ice State by boat, arrived at Yun State and called out to the man in the water.

Slaughter unfolded in Yun State.

Withered corpses drifted with the current in all directions.

No matter their gender, anyone who encountered the women from Jingxue Palace turned into withered corpses. Even the spirit beasts inevitably met the same fate.

"How wonderful, how marvelous, this is my Seductive Witch's hunting ground, my treasure land!"

The lazy beauty's face blushed as if drunk, murmuring to herself.

"I must take complete possession of this place, no one better tries to compete with my hunting ground, unique and incomparable. But where has my Mumu gone?

"Mumu, you are the best. I will find you."

The Seductive Witch mumbled to herself.

In front of the black cave where Jingxue Palace once stood, a Divine Refinement warrior stood in shock.

"What is this? What's going on here?"

He was tremendously shaken, his intuition telling him that this catastrophe was related to the cave that resembled a black hole.

"Such caves have never existed in the Spiritual Realm before. No, I must go to Hongzhou and report to Upper Sect!"

He moved instantly, avoiding the Black Cave from afar and dashing madly towards Hongzhou, not daring to stop even for a moment.

"Finally, someone noticed. Let's hope more powerful people come; the hunt is only interesting when they're a bit stronger. These are still too weak,"

the Seductive Witch's figure suddenly appeared above the cave, and she smiled.

The changes in Ice State, the great upheavals within the Spiritual Realm, had not yet reached Hongzhou.

The communication system set up by the Wanshi Alliance, due to its short establishment time and the obstruction by the Transcendent Spirit Sect, had not spread to Hongzhou.

It was precisely because of this that the calamities in Ice State, Yun State, and Da Ze State had not been swiftly communicated to Hongzhou, leaving the governing Transcendent Spirit Sect in the dark about the drastic changes that had occurred.

In Yun State, Da Ze State, and Dachuan State, Divine Refinement Celestials were rushing towards Hongzhou.

Yun State had become a lake, and the martial artists who survived the massive flood faced a new disaster.

The battle of exceptional youths was nearing its conclusion.

The top hundred geniuses were about to emerge.

All the warriors from Spirit Sect looked exceptionally grim. Having dominated the Spiritual Realm for countless years, not a single Spirit Sect prodigy had made it into the top five of this competition.

The Spirit Body Prodigies were supposed to demonstrate their divine might and uphold the honor of Transcendent Spirit Sect. Instead, none made it into the top five; all were overshadowed by Loose Cultivators.

Wanshi Alliance was in the limelight, especially the young Alliance Hierarch Fang Hao, whose martial arts prowess and tactics once again shocked all corners of the Spiritual Realm.

Right then, every Loose Cultivator seemed to have found their backbone, their fighting spirit soaring with oaths to change the structure of the Spiritual Realm and overturn the rule of Spirit Sect.

Aboard Evergreen Pavilion's Flying Ship, Xu Yan took out the divine objects he had obtained from Azure Sea. After keeping enough of them to ensure his own foundation could accumulate fully, he gave the rest to Meng Chong and Su Lingxiu.

Li Xuan inwardly admired that his senior brother Xu Yan was perfectly suited for his role, making indelible contributions to his great martial enterprise.

As the battle of the geniuses continued, Xu Yan had already begun to accumulate his foundation again, preparing for breaking into the Divine Skill Realm.

Meng Chong and Su Lingxiu were striving to reach perfection in the Divine Origin Realm.

"It's coming to an end,"

Li Xuan sighed. The grand competition among the geniuses was drawing to a close.

The Wanshi Alliance was truly standing tall in the Spiritual Realm, completely disrupting the order and shaking the rule of Spirit Sect.

But was the Transcendent Spirit Sect just willing to give up like this?

Li Xuan doubted whether something was being prepared in the shadows. Could it be possible that the other parts of the Transcendent Spirit Sect were indifferent to their defeat, Thousand Martial Hall in particular? After being humiliated, wouldn't they seek revenge?

The Daoist Golden Book opened, and golden light surged forth.

"Your disciple Meng Chong has comprehended the first level of the Great Sun Stellar Indestructible Body, and you have broken through to the first level of the Great Sun Stellar Indestructible Body."

Meng Chong had finally understood the Martial Arts Techniques of the first level of the Great Sun Stellar Indestructible Body.

Boom!

Li Xuan felt the changes in his physical body, and was excited beyond measure, as his strength had once again increased.

Both the orthodox Martial Arts and Physical Body Martial Arts had broken through to the Physiognomy Realm.

As for the Alchemical Medical Martial Arts, it couldn't be far behind.

Xu Yan was already explaining the Physiognomy Realm Martial Arts Techniques to Su Lingxiu.

Moreover, Li Xuan felt that Xu Yan seemed to have some insights into the Void-breaking Martial Arts Techniques as well.

"Breaking the Void shouldn't be too far away either, right?"

Li Xuan looked forward to it in his heart.

On this day, the battle for the pride of heaven finally came to a close.

The Emperor Da Zhou, Fu Tianhai, Lord Leiyun, the Master of Yuling Mansion, the Thousand Martial Lord, and the Taimiao Sect Master stood in the air, announcing the results of this battle for heavenly pride.

"The number one prodigy of the Spiritual Realm is Xu Yan, the second Meng Chong..."

The voice of the Emperor Da Zhou was resounding and spread in all directions.

"The top hundred prodigies from the Spiritual Realm have obtained their places, and will enter a precious land in the Spiritual Realm together in one month..."

As for what precious land, the Emperor Da Zhou did not specify.

The expression of the Thousand Martial Lord was cold as he looked towards the ranks of the Thousand Martial Hall; the elder holding the sword nodded, indicating they were ready.

Having finished speaking, the Emperor Da Zhou then fell silent.

As for the matters of the Wanshi Alliance, they were unrelated to his Da Zhou State; the land of victory belonged to the direct rule of Da Zhou State, and the Wanshi Alliance could not interfere.

As for the territories controlled by other Spirit Sects, he couldn't be bothered to care.

"The Spiritual Realm is ruled by the Spirit Sects; this is an unbreakable pattern. Any person or force that tries to change this will be obliterated.

"The Blood Demon and the Blood God Sect were thus, and if the Wanshi Alliance refuses to cease its stubbornness, it will ultimately meet the same fate.

"The Wanshi Alliance is adept in its methods, especially the young Alliance Hierarch Fang Hao, with his Way of the Array, astonishing the world. But if he thinks he can act recklessly and violate the rules of the Spiritual Realm, he is seeking his own death.

"However, considering the establishment of the Wanshi Alliance, and its importance to the stability of the Spiritual Realm, it is not unreasonable to discuss terms. But there is one rule that cannot be changed.

"The Spiritual Realm is the territory ruled by the Spirit Sects. If the Wanshi Alliance wishes to exist, it can only become a Spirit Sect!"

Lord Leiyun looked towards the Wanshi Alliance as he spoke in a deep voice.

The Spiritual Realm is the territory of the Spirit Sects and must not be violated!

However, the fact that the Wanshi Alliance is powerful is undeniable, hence if the Wanshi Alliance wishes to exist, it must be promoted to a Spirit Sect and not remain a Loose Cultivator force.

As to whether it will be promoted to a top Spirit Sect or be listed among the Transcendent Spirit Sects, Lord Leiyun left unsaid, clearly leaving some room for the Wanshi Alliance.

This statement could also be considered as giving the Wanshi Alliance a way to step down.

Being promoted to a Spirit Sect, like them, would belong to the Spirit Sects. In this way, the existence of the Wanshi Alliance would no longer be an issue.

"The Spiritual Realm must be ruled by the Spirit Sects; what kind of rule is this?"

Tan Wenlin spoke out in a deep voice.

"A rule is a rule, not something you or I can decide, nor is it something our Transcendent Spirit Sect can decide. You and the Wanshi Alliance best watch yourselves."

The Master of Yuling Mansion said in a solemn voice.

"Rules are meant to be broken. My Wanshi Alliance will not join the Spirit Sects; let's see what can be done about it?"

Fang Hao said with a light laugh.

Lord Leiyun was about to say something else when, at that moment, more than a dozen figures rushed over in a frenzy, their voices anxious and trembling:

"Upper Sect Master, something terrible has happened. The Ice State and Yun State have suffered a great calamity, countless dead and injured!"

"The ice in Ice State has melted, a massive flood swept through Yun State and Da Ze State; Yun State is already submerged, with innumerable casualties!"

"Upper Sect Master, quickly take control! A great disaster has befallen the Spiritual Realm!"

The whole place fell silent.

Especially the powerhouses from Yun State and Da Ze State, all of whom changed their expressions drastically.

Lord Leiyun and the others' expressions changed dramatically too, and they instantly met up with the newcomers.

"What happened?"

"Is there anyone from Ice State?"

"Something's not right, there is not a single Martial Artist from Ice State. Did no one from the Quiet Snow Palace come?"

Only at this moment did they horrifyingly realize that such an event of the Spiritual Realm had not witnessed a single Martial Artist from Ice State!
