Chairman Zhang Yuanbo was deep in thought as he looked at the latest news that his subordinates had sent over.
Xi Qianye had truly surprised him.
The matter of the Battle Spear Square had already spread like wildfire within the city. Many factions had received similar news. After all, intelligence was extremely important to survive in Battle Spear City, and almost all factions had their own intelligence network.
A student of the Warspear Academy had defeated ten Spirit Ranking members of the same level in a one versus ten battle. On the surface, this didn't seem to have anything to do with the various factions in Battle Spear City.
But in reality, any outstanding student or celebrity of the Warspear Academy would receive the attention of the various factions.
This was because the future of Battle Spear City, and even the future of the Xiling Kingdom, was very likely to be grasped in the hands of some of them.
After all, a new generation would replace the old, and those unparalleled geniuses would grow into towering trees one day.
Therefore, the various factions would try their best to rope in such youths. Even if they couldn't, they wouldn't easily offend them.
If any genius was destined to walk on the opposite side of them, they would think of all sorts of ways to eliminate them and strangle them in the cradle.
"He's already at the eighth level of the spirit realm at such a young age, and has trained in the legendary resplendent holy light. Fighting one versus ten, how extraordinary."
Zhang Yuanbo shook his head and sighed. Although he knew that Xi Qianye was extraordinary, he was still a bit surprised by how extraordinary he was.
A merchant's intuition had always been keen. Zhang Yuanbo had long since suspected that Xi Qianye wasn't simple, and perhaps had a mysterious background that no one knew of. Therefore, he was willing to give away half of his wealth and didn't go back on his word.
"With such potential, he'll definitely become a sky realm cultivator and dominate a region. There's even a high chance that he'll become a venerated realm cultivator.
A future venerated realm cultivator, perhaps I should head to the Thousand Treasures Mountain to take a look. "
Zhang Yuanbo thought to himself.
The Thousand Treasures Mountain had sent him an invitation before, hoping that he could head there to discuss some matters of cooperation.
However, the Thousand Treasures Mountain was unknown in Battle Spear City. If it wasn't for Xi Qianye mentioning it, he wouldn't even know that there was such a faction in Battle Spear City.
Naturally, he couldn't help but look down on them. He lacked interest in going to the Thousand Treasures Mountain, so he kept delaying going.
However, things were different now. One Xi Qianye was enough to change his mind.
Xi Qianye's actions in the Battle Spear Plaza spread like wildfire throughout the city in a very short period of time. Those who were slightly well-informed already knew about it. This was the first time that Xi Qianye had appeared in the sights of some of the major forces in Battle Spear City.
Some people who didn't know about Xi Qianye didn't think much of this news. They only knew that another peerless genius had appeared in the Battle Spear City.
As for those who knew Xi Qianye before, none of them dared to believe it when they heard the news.
In the Princess Manor, Princess Qianxun's eyes were filled with shock.
Even after confirming that the news was true, she still couldn't believe it.
Cultivate the brilliant Holy Light!
One against ten!
Not to mention the Battle Spear City, even in the entire Xiling Country, this was an incomparably shocking matter, rarely seen in the world.
"No wonder you're so arrogant. It turns out that you have some ability.
However, those who are too arrogant might not be able to go far. "
Princess Qianxun shook her head slightly and put away the shock in her eyes.
Xi Qianye might have some ability, but he was still from a different world from her unless he could really become a Venerable One one day.
However, Xiling Country was so big with a population of hundreds of millions. Cultivators were everywhere, and powerhouses were as common as clouds. However, how many Venerables were there?
Throughout history, many peerless geniuses died in depression and couldn't reach that step in their entire lives.
It was too difficult to become a Venerable One. The path to the Great Dao was bumpy, and only one out of a hundred people could succeed. There were many who died with hatred.
If one didn't become a Venerable One, it would be impossible for one to truly reach the upper world and be no different from the common people. It was a different world.
…
After the Academy Ranking Battle ended, Xi Qianye didn't return to the academy. Instead, he went to the Thousand Treasures Mountain.
When the Thousand Treasures Mountain was first built, there were many things that required his personal attention. For example, setting up a great formation to guide the spiritual energy of the earth veins out from the depths of the earth. As the Yin Head of the Dragon Veins in the Battle Spear Mountain Region, once Xi Qianye guided the energy of the earth veins out from the depths of the earth, the Thousand Treasures Mountain Region would become a true paradise.
However, such a treasure land naturally couldn't be easily exposed to others, or it would inevitably cause conflicts.
Therefore, Xi Qianye needed to set up the formation planning in the Thousand Treasures Mountain area personally.
In half a month, Xi Qianye was in the Thousand Treasures Mountain. The Thousand Treasures Mountain was 500 kilometers horizontally and 1,500 kilometers vertically. It occupied a rather large area. Because it was previously thought to be a barren mountain, the Thousand Treasures Mountain didn't spend much to buy it.
At this moment, Xi Qianye stood in the wind on a mountain peak that was 9,800 meters tall. His deep eyes pierced through the sea of clouds and looked at the entire Thousand Treasures Mountain area.
After half a month of hard work, the Thousand Treasures Mountain area had undergone earth-shattering changes.
Of course, outsiders couldn't see it at all. Only Xi Qianye knew.
A blue light streaked across the sky as fast as lightning. The light dragged a long tail in the air that was over 100 meters long.
The blue light flickered a few times and appeared in front of Xi Qianye. It was like a dark rainbow. The light faded, and an old man appeared behind Xi Qianye. It was Hua Yiran, who was once famous in the Southern Barbarian Continent and was known as the Half-Saint of Medicine.
After a month of recuperation, Hua Yiran's cultivation had recovered a lot. Although he hadn't returned to the peak, he was still at the Seventh Heaven of the Venerable Realm.
One more step and he would be a Supreme Venerable. Even in the entire Xiling Country, he was a rare existence.
Of course, when Hua Yiran was at his peak, he was a genuine Supreme Venerable. His cultivation was at the peak of the Eighth Heaven of the Venerable Realm.
However, Hua Yiran had been trapped in the Saint's Graveyard for too long. He was old and decaying, and he had lost too much of his vitality. It would probably take him one or two years to recover completely.
"Master, the positions of the nine spirit pillars have been completely set. They have all been set according to your requirements." Hua Yiran bowed and said.
"Very good."
Xi Qianye nodded slightly. He looked at the other eight mountains around the mountain and nodded with satisfaction.
The so-called nine spirit pillars were the nine special mountains that Xi Qianye had set up. They were collectively known as the Nine Spirit Mountains.
The Nine Spirit Mountains were the foundation of the Thousand Treasures Mountain's core formation. With the mountains as the foundation, the Heaven and Earth Great Formation was naturally set up.
In fact, the nine spirit mountains were moved by the Mountain Moving Sea Filling Technique. They were placed at the core of the Thousand Treasures Mountain's dragon vein to suppress the dragon vein and fate of this place.
From now on, the nine spirit mountains would be the core of the Thousand Treasures Mountain. They would gather all the essence of heaven and earth and the creation of the Great Dao.
"The nine spirit mountains have been set up, and the foundation has been established. The Nine Dragons Imperial Heaven Formation should be born."
