Cultivating with Bragging System-Chapter 459 - 239 Zhang Yuge: Brother, Are You Going to Heaven? (6331 words)_4
When they saw hundreds of disciples, each holding a Soul Fighting Machine and tackling challenges in small groups, Zhang Yuge and the others were dumbfounded.
"Is it actually real?"
"They actually have this many of them?"
"The Sanqing Immortal Sect has hidden this so well!"
Everyone was shocked. In their minds, the strength of the Sanqing Immortal Sect was a thing of the distant past. It had been in decline for many years, not only impoverished but also weak. If not for the towering merits it had established while resisting the Demon Race, it might have been replaced long ago and removed from the ranks of the Cave Heavens.
Although they now had Wang Xiu, a prodigy with unsurpassed natural talent who made numerous geniuses submit, a deep part of them still saw the Sanqing Immortal Sect as having been weak for a long time. They believed it couldn’t compare to the top-ranking Immortal Sects and that its glory was gone.
Yet the sight of the Soul Fighting Machines completely shattered their perception.
These were treasures that could be used anytime, anywhere to hone the young disciples’ Daoist Divine Powers and combat skills, all without the risk of death. And yet, every disciple had one. Moreover, the resource consumption was almost negligible. One didn’t need to think deeply to feel the true weight of its significance.
"May I ask, this Soul Fighting Machine... whose masterwork is it?" Ye Guhong suddenly spoke up, his usually placid eyes filled with shock.
In this world, there were few things left that could shock him. The Soul Fighting Machine was one of them.
If the Human Race had possessed such a treasure in the past, the outcomes of countless wars might have been rewritten. This item is too precious!
"As it happens, you know this person!" Li Zuoyue teased. Seeing that the others couldn’t bear the suspense any longer, he finally said softly, "It is our Sanqing Saint Heir, Junior Brother Wang Xiu!"
"Brother Wang?"
"So it was our big brother!"
"It really is him! No wonder... no wonder..."
"..."
They were all astonished. They had never imagined that not only was Wang Xiu’s talent supreme, outpacing them significantly in Divine Abilities, but that he also possessed such remarkable skill in puppetry.
Is there truly no limit to him? Practicing so many Divine Skills doesn’t even take much of his energy, leaving him free to research other things.
Only Ye Guhong, after his initial shock, had a look of sudden realization on his face.
If it’s him, then no matter how earth-shattering his deeds, nothing is surprising! Even after all these years, he remains just as brilliant and dazzling. He can learn anything in an instant, effortlessly reaching the pinnacle and leaving others to look up to him in awe!
...
The banquet on Fenglai Peak continued, but not all guests were required to stay until the very end.
「In a certain private courtyard.」
"This Sanqing Saint Heir is indeed extraordinary. When I faced him, I couldn’t see through him at all, as if staring into an abyss..."
The Lingxu Hall Master was a prominent figure from the Longhu Immortal Sect. He had made a name for himself on the Great Ability List in his youth and entered the Saint Realm hundreds of years ago. He was leading the delegation to the Sanqing ceremony for two reasons: first, to show respect, and second, to gauge Wang Xiu’s true capabilities.
Even as allies, the Great Immortal Gates made it a point to keep tabs on any remarkable prodigies that emerged among them. Lately, Wang Xiu’s fame had become incredibly prominent, thoroughly overshadowing the geniuses from the other Immortal Sects in Nanzhou. However, none of the Great Immortal Gates had a solid grasp of his true limits. In fact, many of the visiting powers had come with this very thought in mind.
Zhang Yuge sat across from him, silent.
"For our Saint Heir to become sworn brothers with him is no loss of status. I expect that within five hundred years, Sanqing will return to its peak under his leadership!"
This was an extremely high evaluation. In the Cultivation World, five hundred years isn’t a long time, and it’s rare for the grand scheme of things to change significantly in such a span. The Lingxu Hall Master was asserting that Wang Xiu would reach an unimaginable height within five hundred years, perhaps even looking down upon all of Nanzhou.
"Perhaps it won’t even take five hundred years," Zhang Yuge suddenly said.
"What does the Saint Heir mean by that?" The Lingxu Hall Master furrowed his brows, confused.
"Today, I saw something..." Zhang Yuge’s eyes flickered as he recounted what he had witnessed earlier that day, a sight that was truly unforgettable.
The Lingxu Hall Master listened, his pupils contracting as his eyes grew wider and wider. It was as if he had heard something absolutely earth-shattering.
Nanzhou... was about to undergo a monumental change
