At the eastern mountain pass, Lu Yin already knew that this would be the outcome. The Prime Clear represented the Hall of Honor, and if even he was indifferent to the Sixth Mainland, then those who were loyal to the Hall of Honor would be disappointed. After all, the Sixth Mainland had caused the Fifth Mainland too much blood debt.
If the Prime Clear truly went all out to intercept the Sixth Mainland, then those from the Sixth Mainland would be in danger.
At the western mountain pass, Zhiyi frowned. Was he targeting the Sixth Mainland?
Fortunately, he had to use a secret technique to deal with Di Fa, which proved that this person's strength was not as unbeatable as the legends claimed. Trying to preserve his strength while intercepting the Sixth Mainland's experts was a joke.
Di Fa had been banished and thrown to the foot of the mountain, but that did not mean that he had withdrawn from the competition. He could still continue.
It was not as difficult as it had been in the beginning, and the guardian of the southern mountain pass was the Sixth Mainland's Bu Kong.
Hold on. Di Fa rubbed his head and stood up. He looked around, but the environment did not seem right. This was not the southern mountain pass.
He looked up at the screen, and his expression changed. This was not the southern mountain pass, but rather the eastern mountain pass, and the guardian was Lu Yin.
Di Fa had not expected to be thrown to the eastern mountain pass, and the others were stunned as well. What was the Prime Clear trying to do?
Lu Yin was also puzzled, but when he thought about it, it made sense. Compared to the other three mountains, his chances of intercepting Di Fa were higher.
Di Fa cursed his bad luck. He and Lu Yin were old friends, and they had exchanged blows in the Daosource Sect's ruins. It was he who had thrown Lu Yin towards Shang Rong's Wutian, which had almost caused Di Fa to be dismembered. They had exchanged blows once or twice after that, and Di Fa was even more fearful of Lu Yin than he was of the Prime Clear.
Quiet Weep reached the central pass and successfully broke through. She then appeared in the arena beside Feather Mavis.
The Prime Clear did not intercept her.
Behind Quiet Weep was Star Devourer. This astral beast had broken through Bu Kong with Yao Xuan's help and was now facing the Prime Clear.
After being intercepted by Bu Kong, Star Devourer seemed to have become smarter. It shrunk its body and quickly charged over.
It had seen the Prime Clear's banishment technique, and even though it looked down on humans, it was still wary of secret techniques. Star Devourer's body size, so it had to shrink.
The Prime Clear did not intercept it, and it simply watched as Star Devourer charged over.
The competitors from the Astral Beast Domain relaxed.
Qiushi and the Spirit Palace both made it through at the same time. The Prime Clear One didn't stop them.
Behind him was Nan Yanfei. He had also arrived.
Shangqing looked over.
Nan Yanfei was speechless. He had already been scared witless during Lu Yin's trial, so he would definitely be intercepted in this trial!
Countless people were watching, and Nan Yanfei could not retreat. If he stopped, it would mean that he was terrified. He was a Realmling, so he could not admit defeat, not even if he had to die.
Left with no other choice, Nan Yanfei suddenly charged towards the pass.
Nan Yanfei sighed inwardly. As expected, he was stopped.
At the same time as Nan Yan Fei, Invisible Light also tried to break through. Invisible Light easily passed, but Nan Yan Fei was intercepted.
To the west of the Chaos Flowzone, in the higher realm, the cultivators from the Sixth Mainland were furious, and they cursed at the Prime Clear Branch. However, many of them remained calm.
The enmity between the Sixth and Fifth Mainlands was too deep. It was understandable that the Prime Clear Lineage would target them. Now, it all depended on whether or not the participants would be able to pass.
Fortunately, the Prime Clear One wasn't as godly as the rumors had first stated, and he wasn't as intimidating as Lu Yin. After all, the scene of Lu Yin defeating the Junior Arrow Saint had left a deep impression on everyone.
A stream of air smashed towards Nan Yanfei, who continuously dodged as he tried to break through. Although the stream could not lock onto him, it was very fast and could travel through the void, always blocking his path.
"Hey, it's unrealistic for you to try and stop all of us from the Sixth Mainland by yourself," Nan Yanfei threatened.
The Prime Clear Branch's gaze was cold, and he did not move as he controlled the stream of air to attack Nan Yanfei.
Behind him, Liu Tianmu and Maiden Xin arrived. Liu Tianmu easily passed, but Maiden Xin was also obstructed by a stream of air.
She narrowed her eyes as two streams of air appeared.
Bai Ling arrived, and a third stream of air descended from the Prime Clear Branch.
The Prime Clear Branch was able to stop three experts by itself. This was the pride of the Prime Clear Branch.
However, many people felt that it was impossible to stop the Prime Clear Branch. Even if three streams of air could stop the three experts, what if another expert from the Sixth Mainland arrived?
What could they do?
The secret banishment technique could not be used indefinitely.
Jian Ru arrived, but he did not choose to break through. Instead, he slashed at the Prime Clear Branch. The sword came from the book, and the sword returned to the book.
Everyone looked at the Prime Clear Branch. There were four Realmling experts from the Sixth Mainland. How could he fight alone?
Lu Yin looked up. Progenitor Chen was about to appear.
On the third fault, Yuhua Mavis looked up at the screen, her eyes filled with anticipation. How big of a commotion would Progenitor Chen cause when he appeared?
This was not the Mountain and Sea Realm, but the Sovereign Tournament that was being broadcasted to the entire universe. Progenitor Chen was about to appear before everyone.
Outside the Sovereign Tournament, Mu En straightened his back. Come out, the Fifth Mainland's once unrivalled powerhouse, the invincible Progenitor Chen.
The sword qi swept past the Prime Clear Branch, but it did not harm him in the slightest. Because it was distorted by a stream of air, two streams of air appeared in front of him. Only one stream of air appeared at the critical point of the pass. If they could break through it, they would pass.
The three streams of air turned into one, and Nan Yanfei and the rest subconsciously paused as they stared vigilantly.
"I hope you can force out the second Qi stream, otherwise it'll be too boring." As soon as he finished speaking, the Qi stream in front of the four of them started to transform into a person, a nose, and eyes. In the end, it turned into a handsome yet cold man.
The moment the man finished transforming, Nan Yanfei and the rest felt their hair stand on end. They felt as if they were facing a monster.
Yu Hua Mavis, Xia Jiuyou, and the others all had solemn expressions. Progenitor Chen had appeared at the same time.
Progenitors were unrivalled powerhouses. Who dared to say that they could match a Progenitor of the same generation?
This was especially true for Progenitor Chen, who was known as the unrivalled powerhouse since ancient times.
The moment Progenitor Chen appeared, the outcome was already decided.
Black illusory flames burned, and Progenitor Chen's figure flickered as he appeared in front of Nan Yanfei and struck out with a palm.
Nan Yanfei's imprint illuminated the Cangqiong Old Man, and he attacked with all his strength. He roared as his Taotie bloodline was pushed to its limits. He felt a sense of danger.
With a boom, the earth trembled as Nan Yanfei's attack split open a mountain peak. He was incomparably powerful. Anyone who could become a Realmling was extraordinary. However, no matter how powerful his attack was, it was meaningless to Progenitor Chen. Progenitor Chen's palm landed on Nan Yanfei's chest, and blood spurted out from Nan Yanfei's back. Nan Yanfei was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing to the foot of the mountain.
Immediately after, Progenitor Chen slammed his palm towards the sword scholar who had attacked the Prime Clear Branch.
Distance was meaningless to him. The sword scholar slashed out with his sword, which swept past Progenitor Chen. Sword qi tore through the sky and spread out horizontally, creating a crack in the sky.
Progenitor Chen slammed his palm onto the sword scholar's hilt and sent the sword flying. Illusory flames burned and instantly enveloped the sword scholar.
The sword scholar's pupils shrank, and the sword qi around him blossomed with brilliance. However, before he could dispel the flames, he was sent flying to the foot of the mountain. His fate was exactly the same as Nan Yanfei's.
Progenitor Chen's next target was Bai Ling. Bai Ling's hair stood on end. How was this possible? She didn't even think about it and immediately retreated. However, Progenitor Chen's figure appeared, and his eyes were cold and emotionless.
Bai Ling's face paled, and a feeling of being unable to resist welled up in her heart.
Suddenly, Progenitor Chen disappeared. Behind him, Xin Nu attacked the Prime Clear Branch. She didn't retreat, and Progenitor Chen appeared behind her and struck out with his palm.
No one could block Progenitor Chen's palm.
Xin Nu's eyes narrowed, and she similarly raised her right palm to strike the Prime Clear Branch, completely ignoring her rear.
Xin Nu's speed was very fast, but the Prime Clear Branch's body was surrounded by qi, and her attack was completely useless. Behind her, Progenitor Chen's palm descended.
Suddenly, Progenitor Chen's movements paused, and the qi around the Prime Clear Branch's body also paused. Xin Nu's attack missed, and her body rushed forward due to inertia. She actually passed the test.
Bai Ling's eyes widened, and she also rushed forward, passing the test.
In just an instant, the two girls both passed the test.
Everyone looked at the Prime Clear Branch, not understanding what happened in that instant.
Outside the Supreme Mountain, Mu En felt strange. Could it be that the Three Yang Ancestral Qi was flawed?
The Prime Clear Branch had just displayed its might, using Progenitor Chen's power to instantly eliminate two Realmling Branch experts. Yet, an unforeseen event occurred, making everyone unable to understand.
At the central pass, the Prime Clear Branch's expression sank. He swept his gaze towards Bu Kong, then towards Zhi Yi, and finally towards Yao Xuan.
Who, just who was it?
Just now, someone used an extremely powerful spiritual attack on him, forcibly dragging him into an irreversible illusion. If it wasn't for Progenitor Chen's power, he wouldn't have sunk into it in just an instant.
Even he couldn't resist such an illusion. Just who was it?
The Prime Clear Branch's expression turned solemn, and he continuously recalled all the experts who specialized in spiritual force. Finally, he looked at Yao Xuan. Was it him?
The Celestial Beast Clan specialized in spiritual force, and they even surpassed the Daynight clan.
The Prime Clear Branch couldn't be sure that Yao Xuan had no reason to help the Sixth Mainland, but aside from him, no one else could unleash an illusion attack that even the Prime Clear Branch couldn't reverse.
On the eastern mountain peak, Lu Yin relaxed, but his expression turned ugly. It had only been an instant, as expected of Progenitor Chen's power.
Fortunately, Xin Nu had passed, which could be considered as returning the favor.
The Prime Clear Branch didn't know who had acted, but some people did, such as Tai Yi Shen, Qing Guangshen, and the others from the Home of the Gods. They had seen Lu Yin's rune lines envelop the Prime Clear Branch for an instant, and although they didn't know what had happened, they felt that the Prime Clear Branch's sudden change might be related to Lu Yin.
Yao Xuan also knew that he was too sensitive when it came to spiritual force.
The spiritual force that Lu Yin had unleashed in that instant had shocked him. A human could actually possess such powerful spiritual force, and Yao Xuan's opinion of Lu Yin completely changed. This person wasn't easy to deal with, and the State Tutor's mission would be difficult. Lu Yin's physical strength, domain, and spiritual force were all terrifying.
Hmm?
Yao Xuan felt many gazes converge on him, especially those from the Prime Clear Branch.
He raised his head and met the Prime Clear Branch's gaze. Had this fellow misunderstood something?
Even though Xin Nu and Bai Ling had passed through the central checkpoint, no one dared to underestimate the Prime Clear Branch.
The Prime Clear Branch had instantly defeated two Realmling powerhouses, and this was only the first stream of energy. The Prime Clear Branch had three streams of energy surrounding his body. Three Progenitors … Just thinking about it made one's scalp go numb.
