Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Xin Tianchen held both fists inside his sleeve and squeezed his joints together until they cracked. His entire body could not refrain from trembling. A look of disbelief shot out from his eyes as if he wanted to kill Qin Wushuang with his glare.

The two Supreme Dao elite warriors of the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect were in no better state. They looked at Qin Wushuang with a complicated look as he dropped from the sky. In that moment, their expression was perplexed and complicated.

Confusion, regret, pain, sadness, jealousy, and profound despair.

“He did not die? This Qin Wushuang has such tenacious vitality! If the divine beast could not even kill him and was forced to surrender to him, the strength of this Qin Wushuang is just too terrifying!”

Xin Tianchen’s heart was bleeding. Once again, his rationale told him that he could not endure it anymore. Qin Wushuang was growing too fast!

If they allowed him to continue to develop with such speed, the political situation of the Heavenly Emperor Mountain would be a disaster. Not to mention, through this competition two of the Qin Clan warriors had entered the top four. Among the rewards, there were three Supreme Dao Fruit!

What did it mean to have three Supreme Dao Fruit? The answer was apparent.

He exchanged a glance with Yan Guinan and Lei Ming and they all saw extremely violent intentions in each other’s eyes.

“Chief Snow Cicada, this...” When the other totem elite warriors saw this scene, they were incredibly puzzled.

Chief Snow Cicada also felt it to be inexplicable as she shrugged her shoulders. “Don’t ask me, I have no idea what was going on. Brother Ba, a monstrous figure has truly emerged from your Xuan Yuan Mound. This Thousand Feeler Cloud Chasing Beast is at the Sixth Transformation Supreme Dao Stage, yet he yields to him?”

Xuan Yuan Ba also had a sense of confusion as he muttered, “The strength of that Qin Wushuang is not enough to subdue a Supreme Dao spiritual beast. Chief Snow Cicada, this divine beast has not deliberately neglected its duty, right?”

Chief Snow Cicada shook her head. “Impossible, this Chasing Cloud beast was subdued by my late Brother Golden Cicada. It is to be sealed away, if the seal has not been broken, it would not dare to leave the island.”

“So it has broken through this seal?”

Of course, Jiang Kui and Ling Tianzhi were the most disappointed. For all these days, they had been dreaming of the championship and longed for Qin Wushuang’s death by the divine beast so he would never come out.

Only in that case, would they be qualified to fight for the championship.

Then, reality had made a big joke of them. They had longed for this outcome for more than a month, until brutal reality strangled their dreams.

Qin Wushuang’s entrance by dropping down from the sky had shattered countless people’s dreamed outcomes.

Yet on the Qin Clan side, there was thunderous cheering. It was too wonderful. The roller coaster of life could not be more than this. Fifteen minutes ago, they were enduring the frigid irony and scorching satire from each other’s party.

At this moment, the arrival of Qin Wushuang had struck these people hard in the face!

Qin Wushuang rolled down from the back of the divine beast. He did not activate the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings, but he made a spell with his hand to glide down from the sky to drop down safely.

He held the Supreme Dao Fruit and arrived before the five elite totem warriors. “Qin Wushuang here, I have accomplished my mission!”

Strange looks flashed from the eyes of Chief Snow Cicada. Xuan Yuan Ba, on the other hand, roared with laughter. “Good, Qin Wushuang, nicely done, everyone has underestimated you!”

The Dark Mysterious Clan and the Ao Clan of the Endless Eastern Sea all let out a cold sneer, yet they had little ground to stand on. Qin Wushuang had used his true strength to kill and outwit his opponents. They could find no loophole to exploit.

The champion was Qin Wushuang. He would get two Supreme Dao Fruits, one piece of Supreme Dao armor, and one Supreme Dao weapon!

Second place was Jiang Kui, he would get one Supreme Dao Fruit and one piece of Supreme Dao armor.

Third place was Ling Tianzhi, he would get one Supreme Dao Fruit and one Supreme Dao weapon.

Fourth place was Qin Taichong, he would get one Supreme Dao Fruit.

Fifth place was Lu Qingchuan, she would get one piece of Supreme Dao armor.

...

The awards ceremony had truly made a lot of bystanders envious. Especially when they mentioned the rewards of fourth place, the Supreme Dao Fruit had truly made a lot of people green with envy.

Supreme Dao Fruit, that was an insurance to reaching the Supreme Dao Stage! One Supreme Dao Fruit was equivalent of having more than ninety-five percent chance of breaking into the Supreme Dao Stage when ready.

For this ordeal competition, the biggest winner had to be the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan. Of course, it could also be said that the Qin Clan had aroused a lot of attention in a short amount of time. They had won three Supreme Dao Fruit heroically!

Among the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates, besides the Qin Clan, Yun Zhongye of the Yun Clan acquired seventh place. Therefore, for this battle, it could be said that the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates were the most successful.

After all, among the five Forbidden Spiritual Zones, a few dozen powerhouses had come from the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates of the Xuan Yuan Mound. As they were capable of gaining three spots in the top ten, clearly it was unprecedented success.

However, behind this success, some were endlessly disappointed. For example, the Xin clan. Being the Heavenly Emperor Eighth Gate, the Xin Clan should have been the one with outstanding talent from the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates.

However, their two participating candidates had not entered the top ten at all. To the Xin Clan, this was definitely a humiliating defeat.

Heavenly Emperor Gate?

At this moment, everyone was discussing the Qin Clan and some were thinking of the Yun Clan. The Xin Clan was completely ignored by people at this time. Even if someone were to mention it, they would express an amazed tone when learning that the Xin Clan was supposed to be the leading powerhouse among the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates.

Because of this outcome, some people could not but help to suspect the status of this Xin Clan. They were highly suspicious whether or not this Xin Clan had an undeserved reputation and if they were worthy of the position of the Heavenly Emperor Gate...

Under the suspicious gaze of the bystanders, the Xin Clan left the ceremony with their tails between their legs.

For this trip to the Illusion Heavenly Lake, the Heavenly Emperor Xin Clan was left embarrassed and questioned. Regardless of looking from which angle, the Xin Clan had not gained anything. What they did acquire was a humiliating mark in their history.

After the awards ceremony had finished, the Ten Thousand Year Pilgrimage Pageant had ended with celebration.

The Qin Clan had a great harvest. The other powerhouse of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates were all thinking whether they should consider improving their relationship with the Qin Clan.

After all, the Heavenly Emperor Election pageant was not far away. A dozen years of time would pass with the snap of a finger. At this point it was put into question whether or not the Xin Clan would be able to hold its position. Would they even be qualified to sit on the throne? When facing the Qin Clan, that had risen so abruptly, not to mention the Xin Clan’s unpreparedness, the other sects felt it was too much for the eyes to take.

It was no wonder that the Qin Clan was a sect with deep ancestry. Although in recent years they had been giving people the impression of falling, this sudden rise proved the old saying that continued tradition from ancient times was never comparable to those up-and-coming sects.

Sometimes a concrete foundation would triumph in the end.

When the pageant had ended, all sects were preparing to depart. Instead, Xuan Yuan Ba had ordered the leaders of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates to not leave in a rush, but to wait for him at the guest house.

Clearly, Xuan Yuan Ba wanted to hold a meeting.

Everyone was in high spirits for the Qin Clan. Because of them, they were definitely returning home from a rewarding journey. Nothing could make them happier than the victory before them.

When Qin Yunran received Xuan Yuan Ba’s order, he said to the juniors of the clan, “You all wait here for me, I am going to see what Mr. Ba has for us.”

At the guest house, Qin Wushuang talked about his experience on the island with all the brothers. His stories made everyone overwhelmed with emotion.

Qin Taichong laughed. “Wushuang, it’s no wonder why we saw that you are a person with great fortune. Ha ha, you have no idea... Everyone’s expression was priceless when you rode in on that divine beast. Especially Xin Tianchen and the others, they looked like they were going to die. Ha ha!”

Qin Hao also said with smiles of exultation, “Isn’t that right? Those bastards were waiting to laugh at us! Fortunately, Wushuang, you had appeared just in time, ha ha. It was such a loud slap to their face!”

“By the way, Senior Brother, Junior Brother Wushuang, what do those Supreme Dao Fruit look like? Show us so we can see!” Qin Hao was the first one to get impatient.

“Yes yes yes, we have never seen one up close, Senior Brother...”

Qin Taichong was usually happy, but at this moment he held a firm standpoint. He shook his head. “Junior Brothers, although me and Junior Brother Wushuang have won these Supreme Dao Fruit, they aren’t our private belongings. Everything must be handed over to the seniors of the sect to take care. Therefore, you should not be scheming anything. Regarding the distribution of the Supreme Dao Fruit, we must see what the Chief says.”

Qin Hao scratched his head as if something was scratching his heart. He laughed. “Senior Brother, we are not looking to seize the Supreme Dao Fruit, we just want to see them. Besides, in terms of qualifications, certainly you and Junior Brother Wushuang should get to keep at least one Supreme Dao Fruit each. It would not be our turn no matter how we look at it.”

Qin Taichong laughed. “For now I am not at the Peak of the Ravine Mysterious Stage, so it’s somewhat meaningless to consume the Supreme Dao Fruit unless I break out of the Ravine Mysterious Stage and enter the Common Mysterious Stage. If not, even for me, I cannot consume the Supreme Dao Fruit.”

“Junior Brother Wushuang, what about you? I see that you seem to be at the Exquisite Mystery Boundary Stage...” Qin Taichong had keen eyes and saw through Qin Wushuang’s stage at once.

Qin Wushuang laughed leisurely. “I should also not be consuming it. I plan to make a dash for the Supreme Dao Stage myself. It’s not my intention to rely on the Supreme Dao Fruit.”

These words had caused Qin Hao and Qin Hongyan to be speechless. They all smiled bitterly. When the Supreme Dao Fruit lay before him, he did not even really want it.

Inwardly, they longed for it. Yet, they would have no hope to get it.

This was the difference.

Qin Zhining was rather understanding as he nodded. “I also feel the same. With Junior Brother Wushuang’s strong talent, it’s enough for him to rely on his own strength to break into the Supreme Dao Stage. Although the Supreme Dao Fruit could ensure one to enter the Supreme Dao Stage, in terms of down the road, a Supreme Dao warrior created by the Supreme Dao Fruit would surely have less potential than those who comprehend it fully themselves. Of course, there are no absolutes. Above the Supreme Dao Stage, each step forward will be incredibly arduous. In terms of potential, most people would not dream for much more. It’s already an accomplishment to enter the Supreme Dao Stage...”

These were rather honest words. Only the cream of the crop could enter the Supreme Dao Stage.

In other words, entering the Supreme Dao Stage was almost every martial artist’s lifelong wish. However, most people were destined to have no chance to achieve this.

Therefore, to the majority of martial artists, entering the Supreme Dao Stage would be enough of a success. As for potential, it would not be important. It was because many people would not even challenge things such as the Genuine Supreme Dao, this supreme stage.

Qin Hongye asked with endless care, “I just don’t know how the Chief would distribute these Supreme Dao Fruit. Ha ha, there are a few Honored Warriors at the Peak of the Common Mysterious Stage. If they could all break into the Supreme Dao Stage, then certainly we would achieve a win during the Heavenly Emperor election. We can oppress the Xin Clan and get back the position of the Heavenly Emperor!”

While they were talking, a sound came from a figure outside, “Brother Wushuang, Shang Ye is here to visit.”

Qin Wushuang felt moved inwardly as he nodded to his group of colleagues and walked out.
