However, it had genuinely reached its end.
There was no way to advance any further.
The Gate of Lingyu, a legendary tale only known to deities, was unknown to the Great Emperor, unheard of by countless powers within the Inner Domain, let alone by many Great Grandmasters.
Great Grandmasters at the pinnacle of their power, elusive and difficult to trace, were generally believed to be searching for the path forward in Martial Arts, hence their scarce appearances in the open.
“Above the Great Grandmasters exists the Heavenly Martial Artist. To attain such a state, one must enter the Gate of Lingyu. The Inner Domain cannot provide a breakthrough; the path forward has been cut off.
“The path forward lies within the Gate of Lingyu.
“On Canglan Island, the individual who may truly be a Heavenly Martial Artist, might be someone who has emerged from the Gate of Lingyu. Su Lingxiu is the key to entering the Gate of Lingyu.
“Can the many Great Grandmasters, and all their strength and influence within the Inner Domain, simply allow a Heavenly Martial Artist to sever their path forward?”
The man in a red robe with a green face said coldly.
“A Heavenly Martial Artist?”
The Great Emperor was utterly astonished. No wonder dozens of pinnacle Great Grandmasters had been killed, and none had escaped.
“Joining the force of all the Great Grandmasters for a single opportunity, forcing the Heavenly Person to step aside, and even – killing the Heavenly Person to open the Gate of Lingyu!”
A crazed look flashed across the eyes of the man in the red robe with a green face.
“Even a powerful Heavenly Martial Artist would not be able to suppress the world by himself. We, who are a step away from becoming Heavenly People, would also make a concerted effort!”
The man in the red robe spoke with a sort of madness.
“Good! My Great Empire will undoubtedly lend all its strength!”
The Great Emperor spoke excitedly.
“Spread the news of the Gate of Lingyu and the Heavenly Martial Artist everywhere, let the forces within the Inner Domain unite, and see how that Heavenly Martial Artist handles it!”
The man in the red robe said in a low voice.
Many forces and powerful Grandmasters in the Inner Domain received the news that there was still a path forward in Martial Arts above the level of Great Grandmaster.
To open the Gate of Lingyu and enter the realm of Heavenly Man!
The Pavilion Master of Chang Qing Pavilion, Su Lingxiu, is the key to unlocking the Gate of Lingyu. On Canglan Island, there is a Heavenly Martial Artist controlling Su Lingxiu, trying to monopolize the Gate of Lingyu.
Take over Canglan Island, hand over Su Lingxiu, and share the opportunity of the Gate of Lingyu, thus opening up the Martial Arts path for those above the rank of Great Grandmaster!
The tales of the Gate of Lingyu and the Heavenly Person spread wider and wider within the Inner Domain under the promotion of many forces, and more and more Great Grandmasters received this news.
Canglan Island became the center of attention in the Inner Domain.
Su Lingxiu was regarded as the key to open the Gate of Lingyu!
Many powerful forces gathered, with Grandmasters from the Inner Domain converging. At this time, Martial Artists who were half a step away from becoming Heavenly Beings began to appear one after another, including some pinnacle Great Grandmasters who were once believed to have died.
At this moment, they all revealed themselves.
Infamous figures from the Demon Church, and the remaining Demon Lords, also appeared one by one.
The Dowager Empress of the Great Empire, although old and close to death, also left the imperial mausoleum.
A martial artist half a step away from becoming a Heavenly Man emerged from the imperial family of Yan Country.
The retired emperor of Ziyun Country also made his appearance. One after another, prestigious and powerful figures appeared.
The Martial Arts World of the Inner Domain was shocked!
Countless Great Grandmasters were horrified but also excited, vowing to force Canglan Island to hand over the person, and share the chance of the Gate of Lingyu!
One after another, powerful forces and formidable figures from great families revealed themselves. The powers of the Inner Domain seemed to be converging, wishing to join forces to suppress Canglan Island.
At the Seven-star Study Palace, Bai Yun Kong sat under an ancient tea tree, quietly enjoying his tea.
Two figures approached.
“Palace Master, regarding the Gate of Lingyu and the Heavenly Person, what should our Seven-star Study Palace do?”
Bai Yun Kong replied coldly, “Our Seven-star Study Palace principle is not to interfere in the disputes of the Martial Arts world. Have you forgotten?”
“This isn’t about Martial Arts disputes; it concerns the path forward in Martial Arts!”
One person said with a heavy voice.
“The path forward has always been there. The Gate of Lingyu is elusive and hard to find; who could enter it? If you enter the gate, will you automatically become a Heavenly Man? Can first-class Martial Artists all become Grandmasters? Can Grandmaster Martial Artists all become Great Grandmasters?”
“The principles of the Seven-star Study Palace cannot be violated.”
Bai Yun Kong said solemnly.
“Palace Master, there might still be an opportunity if we try. If we don’t, there will be no chance. I can’t accept that!”
“Yes, we won’t be satisfied until we’ve tried!”
The two spoken in a deep voice.
Bai Yun Kong looked at the two of them, sighed, and said, “The opportunity is not far away, and the Heavenly Man is not the only path. That’s all I have to say. Make your own decision!”
“Palace Master, you are too stubborn. I will not miss this opportunity!”
“Palace Master, it’s you who should stick to your principles and make your own decisions!”
After speaking their minds, the two turned around and left.
Bai Yun Kong’s fingers tapped on the table, seemingly hesitant about whether to make a decision.
An elderly man with a lustrous complexion approached, his white hair draped over his shoulders, holding a fan in his hand, appearing youthful apart from his unusually deep, black eyes.
“Why the fuss? If there’s anything to hesitate about? Our Seven-star Study Palace principles are uncompromising. Those who defy our ethos are not one of us.”
Bai Yun Kong managed a bitter smile, “You’re not the Palace Master, it’s easy for you to say. Nevertheless, there’s no need to keep those who don’t adhere to their own hearts.”
On this day, the Palace Master of the Seven-star Study Palace, Bai Yun Kong, issued the order to expel both deputy palace masters. Anyone who wished to participate in the attack on Canglan Island would be expelled from the Seven-star Study Palace!
Also on this day, several of the great grandmasters left the Seven-star Study Palace, and over half of the familiar great teaching grounds were suddenly emptied.
The Gate of Lingyu, and the state of the Heavenly Man, offer such great allure to martial artists.
Even when faced with a real martial arts Heavenly Man, their fear has been left behind amidst the convergence of strength by the world’s great grandmasters with their numerous forces.
They were even thrilled, as if they were back in their youthful days as beginning martial artists, bringing down Heavenly Men, opening the Gate of Lingyu, and making their names known throughout martial arts history.
The northern wastelands, known as the edge of the Inner Domains, stretched out into a boundless expanse of white. High peaks stood still at the endpoint, revealing another part of the Inner Domain as you cross over the peaks.
Here was the true chilling lands, where even the martial artists who had reached the level of grandmaster dared not linger for long.
Half of one of the peaks had been hollowed out and buildings were built up the mountainside along with pavilions, lofts, and gardens, which had everything you could want.
And in a garden built on the high mountainside, it felt warm as spring. Every flower and plant was a spiritual medicine, even a Grade 5 medicinal plant, like the Sky-dropping Spinal Marrow, was growing there.
In the garden at this moment sat over a dozen figures, among whom was the semi-Human figure from the Tianbao Pavilion who had appeared in Iron Mountain County.
This was the headquarters of the Tianbao Pavilion!
The man in the purple crown said with a light laugh, “Ever since the old kingdoms of the Inner Domain assembled warriors from all over the world to form the alliance to vanquish the Demon Lord, there has not been this sort of grand occasion.”
“The two of you have seen him. How did you feel about him?”
Everyone seated turned their eyes towards the two who had been to Iron Mountain County.
“Whether he’s a martial arts Heavenly Man, 1 can’t tell, but 1 get the feeling he’s incredibly profound,”
said one of them in a deep voice.
“With just a flick of his wrist, he killed Kujie, directly destroying his consciousness. I’m afraid even the Demon Lord of the past never had such a technique!”
said the other with a sigh.
The man with the purple crown nodded, laughed at himself, and said, “Everyone wants to enter the Gate of Lingyu, but who knows what the Gate of Lingyu is, or even how to enter it? For Inner Domain martial artists to enter is no different than them becoming pigs or dogs.”
All the people present remained silent.
“Pavilion Master, what’s the situation with Su Lingxiu?”
Someone asked curiously.
The man with the purple crown fell silent for a moment and then said deep voice, “The one who came from the Gate of Lingyu twenty years ago must have been related to her. The matter with the Yinlou Pavilion was a task given by someone from the Lingyu.”
All the people present were startled, recalling the young and suave man who had claimed to be traveling in the Inner Domain and had been treated with utmost courtesy by the pavilion master at the time.
“If he was related, then why did the Yinlou Pavilion kill Su Zhen?”
Someone asked in doubt.
The man with the purple crown pondered for a moment and said, “The one who passed the task to Yinlou Pavilion wasn’t him. This matter involves too much. It’s not something we can discuss.”
He let out a cold laugh, “The pavilion master of Yinlou Pavilion really thinks he can become a Heavenly Man by completing the task and entering the Gate of Lingyu? There’s no hope for him, even if he were to stoop low to the level of a pig or a dog.”
The rest all fell silent. The Pavilion Master had once entered the Gate of Lingyu, but failed to become a martial arts Heavenly Man. Could it be that he had become a dog to the powers within the Lingyu?
Moving to the Lingyu as pigs or dogs, or stay atop of the hierarchy in the Inner Domain, they had already made a choice in their hearts. Furthermore, they didn’t believe they had the ability to change this situation.
Suddenly, the image of a young boy flashed into their minds. Could he be the one, capable of changing the fate of those in the Lingyu Domain if he entered the Gate of Lingyu?
Xu Yan!
At the Cliff of Sword Mastery, a group of Great Grandmasters were congregated.
Xie Lingfeng, who was secluding himself for comprehension in sword arts, was summoned by the hurried Hu Shan just when he felt that he was close to comprehending the state of perfect clarity in Sword Dao..
