“Impossible!” Yuan Venerate Jinta had already shouted angrily before Luo Yunyang could finish.
What sort of place was Boundless Taixu? It was not merely like the Nine-Sky Yuan Portrait in their Sect. Yuan Venerate Jinta was enraged that he had been asked to give up a spot for Boundless Taixu just because of a dispute.
He was deeply angered by the shameless request of Luo Jiutian!
Luo Yunyang looked at Yuan Venerate Jinta, who was exasperated, and smiled gently. “Since Uncle Master cannot agree to it, I will tell my father about it. We never like to force things on others.”
Yuan Venerate Jinta took a deep breath. He knew that he was being really rude by acting out this way, but the request of Luo Jiutian and his son was somewhat overboard in his opinion.
However, it would also be very unfavorable if he allowed Luo Jiutian to make things difficult for him.
After all, Luo Jiutian was better than him and the enmity between them seemed like it would continue until one of them died. Yuan Venerate Jinta might continue to suffer if this was not resolved.
Yuan Venerate Duo Long also saw Yuan Venerate Jinta’s hesitation. He immediately turned to Yuan Venerate Jinta and warned him. “Junior Brother Jinta, remain calm for now! We should discuss this further!”
Yuan Venerate Jinta was already hesitant when Yuan Venerate Duo Long gave him a way out of that embarrassing situation. Thus, he snapped back, “Alright then. I’ll listen to you, Senior Brother!”
Luo Yunyang glanced at the livid Yuan Venerate Jinta and got a clearer picture of the situation.
The more impatient Yuan Venerate Jinta was, the more likely it was that he would concede.
It could even be said that he had actually chosen to draw back.
“Yunyang, please tell your father that the Boundless Taixu spot is too precious. Junior Brother Jinta cannot find one right away. How about he changes his request?” Yuan Venerate Duo Long looked at Luo Yunyang and walked over.
Luo Yunyang would not make things difficult for Yuan Venerate Duo Long when it came to this matter. Thus, he chuckled and said, “Uncle Master, it’s easy to negotiate with me, but this matter concerns my father. So…”
Luo Yunyang acted as if he were in a dilemma when he spoke about his father.
Yuan Venerate Jinta snorted. He had no doubts about Luo Yunyang. In his opinion, Luo Yunyang was just a second-generation junior.
The reason he was unhappy was because he felt as if he were begging Luo Jiutian.
“Please contact your father and say that I hope he can change his request.” Yuan Venerate Duo Long had decided to help Yuan Venerate Jinta so he would naturally need to do his best.
Luo Yunyang nodded at Yuan Venerate Duo Long and said, “Yes, Uncle Master.”
Luo Yunyang had nearly fully understood what sort of person Luo Jiutian was during the period of time he had been interacting with him. Hence, he did not conceal the fact that he was in contact with Luo Jiutian from Yuan Venerate Jinta and Yuan Venerate Duo Long.
“Change my request? Yuan Venerate Jinta said that the Boundless Taixu spot is too valuable? Is my life that worthless to him?”
Luo Jiutian’s stance was extremely tough and unyielding. “Yuan Venerate Jinta doesn’t have to do anything if he can’t pull this off. I don’t like to force people to do things against their will.”
A cold glimmer flashed across Yuan Venerate Jinta’s eyes. It could be said that he felt both anger and fear for Luo Jiutian.
He had a weaker cultivation base, so given the mutual resentment, Yuan Venerate Jinta had no choice but to humble himself if he wanted to reconcile with Luo Jiutian.
“Junior Brother, it’s not that you can’t obtain the spot!” Just as Yuan Venerate Jinta was about to speak, Yuan Venerate Duo Long grabbed hold of him and spoke.
“But the price…” Yuan Venerate Jinta did not finish his sentence, but the meaning of his words had already been expressed.
This was a hefty price that would make even Yuan Venerate Jinta go broke. With a glance at Yuan Venerate Jinta, Yuan Venerate Duo Long said, “While it is a hefty price, it is much better than getting ambushed by Luo Jiutian.”
“Alright then!” Yuan Venerate Jinta finally made up his mind after pondering it for a while. He looked at Luo Yunyang and said heavily, “Alright, I can fight for this opportunity, but your father cannot take the spot. It can only be given to disciples of our sect.”
Luo Yunyang smiled gently. “Thank you, Uncle Master, for reminding me. My father just said that this opportunity would be a gift to me.”
Yuan Venerate Jinta said nothing else. He stared at Luo Yunyang with a complex look before turning away and walking out of the palace.
Yuan Venerate Duo Long glanced at Yuan Venerate Jinta, who had just left, and shook his head gently. While Yuan Venerate Jinta had finally accepted his advice, his proud Junior Brother was clearly unhappy with this.
“Yunyang, have a good talk with your father about this matter and tell him that Yuan Venerate Jinta has already agreed to provide the spot. You should tell your father not to break his promise either. The ancestral master of our sect is concerned about this.”
The Ancestral Master of the Taixu Sect was concerned. While these were merely a few words, they were very threatening. How could Luo Yunyang not recognize the underlying meaning of these words? He politely responded, “Uncle Master, don’t worry. I believe my father would never do anything disappointing.”
“Good. Please come to me if you face any difficulties in the future. I’ll definitely take care of them for you if I can.”
Yuan Venerate Duo Long’s words were very kind, but Luo Yunyang knew that this was his way of seeing off his guests.
After leaving Yuan Venerate Duo Long’s palace, Luo Yunyang contacted Luo Jiutian again. When he conveyed Yuan Venerate Jinta’s words, Luo Jiutian responded, “Since he agreed, all is good. Yunyang, this opportunity has not come about easily. This is your final chance to condense Dao Energy.”
Luo Yunyang was rather touched that Luo Jiutian had obtained an opportunity for him through the feud with Yuan Venerate Jinta. However, before he could show his excitement, Luo Jiutian had already hung up the call.
Although Luo Jiutian hadn’t said much, Luo Yunyang could clearly feel his concern.
He was in a good mood as he headed toward the repository he was in charge of. This time, he wanted to find out more about the sort of place Boundless Taixu was.
The repository of outer sect disciples had been under Luo Yunyang’s charge to begin with. Now that Luo Jiutian had become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate, the repository of outer sect disciples had practically become solely Luo Yunyang’s.
Even certain people with a status greater than Luo Yunyang’s would not enter the repository most of the time.
There were not a lot of books related to Boundless Taixu in the repository. Luo Yunyang was able to read through the books very quickly and gain a general idea of the origin of Boundless Taixu.
It was the battleground of supreme beings!
The supreme Sacred Venerate had achieved what he had because he had emerged victorious from a battle in Boundless Taixu.
Although most supreme beings fell in Boundless Taixu, there were also many great benefits left behind in it.
Of course, these great benefits had boundless uses if obtained.
It was just that Boundless Taixu was usually sealed up by a supreme force. Without the power of the Sacred Venerate, it was practically impossible to open up Boundless Taixu.
Eventually, as the top powerhouses of the Vast Sky Sacred Realm had continued to observe Boundless Taixu, they had discovered that a crack would appear on Boundless Taixu every 10,000 years and allow powerhouses who could control sky laws to enter.
However, the quota to enter was very limited, so even the Taixu Sect had only 10 spots.
Each time, the disciples of the Taixu Sect would go crazy over these 10 spots. The core disciples of the Taixu Sect would even fight for them.
Now, his father had laid down his grudge to give him one of these available spots just so that Luo Yunyang could condense his Dao Energy.
Dao Energy was no longer a problem for Luo Yunyang. He gently shut the book about Boundless Taixu and thought to himself. He might be able to find the answers to questions that he hadn’t found in the repository in the past.
…
“Senior Brother Luo, have you heard the news? The elders of the sect have issued a decree that the once-in-10,000-years Boundless Taixu will open soon. Any disciple of the sect can apply for a slot.”
An outer sect disciple ran to the repository and said, “Senior Brother, are you also going to fight for a slot?”
“I won’t fight!” Luo Yunyang said casually while browsing.
The outer sect disciple was immediately distressed upon hearing what Luo Yunyang had said. He felt that he must have gone overboard with the flattery and replied awkwardly, “Boundless Taixu is a really dangerous place. It wouldn’t suit Senior Brother at all.”
“Yes, Senior Brother Luo has his own cultivation resources. Why would he have to enter Boundless Taixu?”
“Although Boundless Taixu is good, it is a paradise merely for us. Senior Brother Luo does not think it is good at all.”
Luo Yunyang put up a hand while listening to these flattering remarks. “Although I will not take part in the competition, I will still enter Boundless Taixu. Ha had… I have already reserved a slot of the sect.”
The few outer sect disciples who had been desperately belittling Boundless Taixu while trying to please Luo Yunyang suddenly felt their heads spin.
He had reserved a slot!
This was Boundless Taixu they were talking about. Even the best core disciples in the sect wouldn’t dare say that they could secure a slot.
However, Luo Yunyang had actually said that he had reserved a slot to enter Boundless Taixu!
How was this possible?
Luo Yunyang didn’t look like he was lying, so the disciples felt that he had said the truth.
“Senior Brother Luo, I heard that only 9 slots have been announced this time. Is the remaining slot yours?” an outer sect disciple who seemed like he had suddenly recalled something asked in a trembling voice.
“Yes, that slot is reserved for me!” Luo Yunyang answered nonchalantly.
The few outer sect disciples revolving around Luo Yunyang felt as though something was buzzing in their heads. At the same time, they found it extremely hard to accept this.
What could a person who didn’t even possess Dao Energy do when he entered Boundless Taixu?
