Chapter 719 Talents of the Creation Heaven Sect Unknown
Lei Zizhen did not pay much attention to Shi Tianhao's emotions.
He thought Shi Tianhao was simply too shocked to even speak.
Lei Zizhen considered for a moment and then said, "By the way, the movements of the demon race have been very frequent recently."
"The True Dragon Holy Land has vanished, and the Netherworld Evil Dragon is missing."
"I heard that over in the Western Sinking Sea, the dragon race is preparing intensively to deal with the demon race's next possible offensive."
"At least our Western Region is relatively stable."
"However, the ancestor said that our Lei Prison clan is preparing to send a team to the Western Sinking Sea to help. On one hand, to search for the Netherworld Evil Dragon, and on the other, to suppress any possible demon calamity."
"I plan to make a trip to the Western Sinking Sea. I have never been there."
"What about you, Brother Shi?"
Shi Tianhao took several deep breaths and nodded lightly.
The Western Sinking Sea…
He knew that place well.
That was the territory of the dragon race.
Moreover, he bore the bloodline of the dragon race and could even be considered a descendant of the Supreme Cangqing.
If he could go to the Western Sinking Sea, perhaps he could accomplish great things!
Shi Tianhao declared solemnly, "I will join. I also want to venture into the Western Sinking Sea!"
Lei Zizhen nodded heavily, "Good! I knew I was not mistaken about you!"
…
Eastern State, Southern Region.
A remote mountain range.
At the entrance of a cave covered by vines, a figure emerged.
A red belt coiled around his waist.
On closer inspection, it was no belt at all but a small crimson serpent.
This was Ye Yan.
The little serpent at his waist was the Blood Desolation Sky Python in a reduced form.
He had cultivated arduously for many years in the former cave dwelling of the Martial Ancestor, and at last, he emerged!
"Seventy Dao patterns!"
"Martial Ancestor's inheritance! Blood Desolation Sky Python! True Martial Heaven-Smashing Seal!"
"Looking across the entire Eastern State, among all Nirvana realm cultivators, my strength must surely be in the first echelon!"
Ye Yan burst into loud laughter.
He was utterly confident in his current strength.
"I wonder what Shen Mo's cultivation is now… I really want to test myself against him!"
Ye Yan mused.
Lin Dongtian sneered, "How could he compare to you now? You have the Martial Ancestor's inheritance and countless spiritual pills and treasures, which allowed you to break through step by step and reach seventy Dao patterns."
"How could he have so many heavenly materials and earthly treasures to squander?"
Xiao Fan strongly agreed, "Yes! Shen Mo's strength definitely cannot match ours."
"This Eastern State world, it is time to take a look at it!"
Ye Yan took a deep breath, guided his qi, and flew out of the mountain range.
Before long, he discovered a city.
Within the city were both mortals and cultivators.
After revealing his cultivation, he quickly received the highest-level reception from the city lord.
Arriving together with the city lord was also a sect steward responsible for this city.
City Lord's mansion, reception hall.
A slender female sect steward smiled faintly, "...Would Fellow Daoist Ye be willing to join my Creation Heaven Sect?"
"With Fellow Daoist Ye's strength, I can guarantee that once you enter the Creation Heaven Sect, you will certainly receive a position as a consecrated one."
"You might even be favored by the Supreme Ancestor and taken in as a personal disciple."
Ye Yan could not help but feel moved.
So quickly he had connected himself with the Creation Heaven Sect, one of the five great powers of the Eastern State.
Everything was going too smoothly!
He truly was the chosen one!
Ye Yan suddenly asked, "I wonder, what talents does the Creation Heaven Sect have?"
The only one he worried about was Shen Mo.
Although Shen Mo should still be in the Southern Islands, he still feared that he might end up in the same sect as Shen Mo again.
So he asked aloud.
"Talents? Then I must mention the Heavenly Maiden of my Creation Heaven Sect, Cao Qingwan..."
The female steward revealed an admiring expression and immediately began to speak at length.
The female steward said earnestly, "Heavenly Maiden Cao Qingwan is the most talented figure my Creation Heaven Sect has seen in ten thousand years!"
"Even the Supreme Ancestor has said that Cao Qingwan will surely inherit his mantle in the future and become the next Supreme of the Creation Heaven Sect!"
Ye Yan listened, his heart stirred with admiration.
Heavenly Maiden Cao Qingwan!
Just hearing the name brought to mind a cold and transcendent woman.
With his own talent and aptitude, it was not impossible that he might one day win her favor.
"Are there other geniuses?"
Ye Yan asked casually.
The female steward then listed their names one by one.
However, to Ye Yan's ears, none of them came close to him.
In the entire Creation Heaven Sect, only that Heavenly Maiden Cao Qingwan could be considered on par with him.
Ye Yan revealed a smile. "I am willing to join the Creation Heaven Sect."
The female steward was overjoyed. "Good, good! With Fellow Daoist's aptitude, you will surely shine brightly in my Creation Heaven Sect in the future!"
The two continued to converse, gradually becoming more familiar with one another.
The female steward even cast amorous glances at Ye Yan.
Clearly, she believed this promising young man had a great future, and she wished to form ties with him.
Ye Yan took a sip of tea and asked casually, "And what of the other four great powers of the Eastern State—who are their geniuses?"
The female steward knew these matters by heart and began to recount them one by one.
"The foremost of the Eastern State's five powers' prodigies is none other than Li Zangfeng of the Eastern Li Imperial Dynasty."
"Next is our own Heavenly Maiden Cao Qingwan of the Creation Heaven Sect."
"After that come Li Yunlong of the Heaven-Burning Divine Sect, and the brothers Sikong Lie and Sikong Yang of the Reincarnation Holy Land—their strengths are evenly matched."
"As for Lei Zizhen of the Lei Prison clan, his strength is not so easy to define."
Ye Yan chuckled. "Oh? How so?"
The female steward shrugged. "Lei Zizhen has always been in seclusion, cultivating under the guidance of the Supreme Ancestor."
"It is said he only emerged not long ago, intending to challenge the prodigies of the Eastern State, but he happened to encounter that one… Naturally, he was defeated."
"Perhaps struck by the setback, he returned to deep cultivation."
"That one?" Ye Yan keenly caught the phrase.
"Yes, that one. At the time, he was still only a Nirvana realm cultivator, yet now he has already become a Supreme. It was just recently. Fellow Daoist Ye does not know?"
The female steward spoke with envy. "This is the greatest news of late!"
"A newly ascended Supreme? That strong?" Ye Yan could not help but click his tongue.
In just a few decades, he had advanced from Nirvana realm to the Supreme realm.
Such a one must possess absolutely astonishing talent!
The female steward sighed in admiration. "Unfortunately, he declined the invitation of my Creation Heaven Sect and instead joined the Reincarnation Holy Land."
"I do not know what he was thinking, alas…"
Ye Yan's heart was stirred, and he could not help but ask, "May I ask, what past deeds does this Supreme have? Such a figure ought to be our model!"
The female steward recited them fluently, praising him repeatedly.
"…That Supreme Mo truly is a model for us all. So many women of my Creation Heaven Sect wish to become his Dao companion."
"Alas, he seems indifferent to women. He has never had a Dao companion at his side."
Ye Yan suddenly froze.
Supreme Mo?
He was now extremely sensitive to this surname.
Ye Yan swallowed hard. "Supreme Mo? May I ask, what is his full name?"
The female steward waved her hands quickly. "How could I dare to call a Supreme by his full name?"
"But I do know this much—his given name is a single character, Mo."
Ye Yan was stunned.
Mo.
A single character, Mo.
Was that not Shen Mo?!
In an instant, Ye Yan felt as though he might faint.
Shen Mo had already become a Supreme!
Yet he himself was still only a Nirvana realm cultivator with seventy Dao patterns!
And to think he had been smug earlier, believing he had far surpassed Shen Mo!
Now it was clear—he was nothing but a fool!
