EBE Chapter 236 Liu Bai Enters Sainthood, He Is Xiao Baiyi!?
Chapter 236 Liu Bai Enters Sainthood, He Is Xiao Baiyi!?
"Cang Xingyu has attained sainthood? How is that possible?"
However, after their initial surprise, Li Fusheng and the others were filled with deep doubt upon hearing this.
Even if Cang Xingyu is exceptionally talented and the most outstanding among the younger generation of humans, he should only be a half-saint now.
Because so many half-saints in this sacred realm have never broken through to the saint realm, what makes a mere junior think he can?!
That's a formidable barrier in the Holy Realm; it's not something you can break through so easily.
As everyone knows, among all the semi-saints, the one who might be the last to enter the saint realm ahead of time is Liu Bai, the semi-saint of Dingtian, and Liu Bai has been practicing the Dao for almost sixty years!
If Cang Xingyu were to become a saint, wouldn't he become the youngest saint in history?
"Although the news about the Holy Maiden of Lotus Pavilion is just speculation, it at least shows that Cang Xingyu's cultivation and combat power have indeed increased dramatically in a short period of time!"
"Or to put it more bluntly, their evil cultivation techniques have very likely achieved a breakthrough!"
At this moment, Yun Shuiyao also finished reading the information in the jade slip and said in a deep voice, "Moreover, the Holy Maiden said that not only Cang Xingyu, but also the Half-Saint Liu Sheng has recently been confirmed to have entered the Saint Realm."
"He is bestowed the title of 'Sage Willow'!"
"What?!" Everyone exclaimed in surprise upon hearing this.
Especially Li Fusheng, he and Liu Bai can be said to be sworn enemies!
Therefore, Liu Bai's attainment of sainthood was absolutely a bolt from the blue for him.
This was much faster than he had anticipated.
"In short, in just one month, the strength of Dingtian Holy Land has increased dramatically. If Cang Xingyu is also confirmed to have entered the Saint realm, it means that Dingtian Holy Land already has four Saint realm experts, including the first Saint Cang Dingtian."
"Our situation is not optimistic. We must be extremely careful when we go to participate in the Tianjiao Competition this time."
Yun Shuiyao said with a solemn expression.
"Hehe, it might not be a bad thing. I actually hope they're strong enough, otherwise wouldn't it be quite boring?"
Seeing that everyone from the Taiji Sect seemed to have a solemn expression, Gu Jiancheng couldn't help but smile.
The message from the Holy Maiden Xuanji did surprise him somewhat, but it wasn't enough to make him wary.
Even if Cang Xingyu truly becomes a saint, so what? He'll just crush him.
"So, let's meet force with force and set off!"
Immediately, Gu Jiancheng waved his hand and led everyone to the outside of the mountain gate.
At this moment, Li Piaomiao and Meng Fusheng, along with two half-saints from the Lotus Pavilion, were hovering in front of a huge and magnificent cloud ship.
It is decorated with thousands of lotus flowers and densely covered with magic arrays, like a floating island!
This is the Holy Lotus Cloud Ship borrowed from Lotus Pavilion; only powerful forces at the Holy Land level can afford to build one.
Although the Taiji Sect's initial fleet now has tens of thousands of disciples, thanks to Shen Ruyue's management, it can only maintain its daily expenses. Such an expensive cloud fleet is absolutely unaffordable for them, so they can only borrow it.
"Jian Cheng, two more Lotus Pavilion Masters will be arriving later. The six of us will escort you all the way to the Heavenly Pride Competition to ensure your absolute safety," Li Piaomiao greeted them with a smile.
"Thank you very much, Master and all the seniors!"
Gu Jiancheng cupped his hands in greeting.
Although he still harbors suspicion towards Lotus Tower, at least for now, Lotus Tower has truly done everything it could.
Immediately, everyone boarded the cloud ship and soared into the sky.
The venue for this Heavenly Pride Competition is Tianding City, which is under the jurisdiction of the Dingtian Holy Land.
That was the first ancient city of the Dingtian Holy Land, extremely far from the Desolate Domain. Even with the Lotus Pavilion's cloud ship and the teleportation arrays along the way, it would still take at least three days to arrive.
During this time, everyone continued to seize the opportunity to consolidate their cultivation.
Meanwhile, Gu Jiancheng was in the room, looking at the various information that Li Biluo had collected.
The information provided by Lotus Pavilion, while crucial, was not comprehensive.
Meanwhile, the Rakshasa Sect's spies had already penetrated deep into the Dingtian Holy Land, and they had gathered a great deal of information in recent days.
“Master, after the last Battle of Guixu, the three holy lands were actually severely weakened. Apart from the Heavenly Ranking being protected by the Silver Slip, there were far too many Earthly Ranking prodigies who died at your hands.”
"In this Heavenly Pride Competition, theoretically only those ranked in the top 100 of the Heavenly Ranking can pose a threat. However, according to the information we have gathered, in the past month, the three holy lands have secretly recruited many villains and ruthless killers!"
"The scale is far greater than before, especially the Dingtian Holy Land. We even discovered that the villainous forces under the Life-Taking Scholar have close ties with the Dingtian Holy Land."
"Sect Master, I suspect that the Death-Taking Scholar is actually the Half-Saint Liu Bai!"
"Oh!? Why do you say that?" Gu Jiancheng raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.
This surprised him quite a bit.
The two people are from vastly different backgrounds.
wrong!
But Gu Jiancheng seemed to have thought of something. He vaguely remembered that Li Fusheng had told him before that his grandfather was most likely killed by the half-saint Liu Bai, but at that time, the Holy Land attributed his grandfather's death to the evil villain.
Not long ago, when he was talking with Wei Yilin, he had heard him say many times that the white-robed owl rarely made a move, and that he was a sword cultivator.
At that time, among all the demigods, only the Sword Saint Liu Bai could injure him!
At least in terms of combat strength back then, these two were roughly equal.
"Because after carefully comparing the information I've gathered, I've discovered that wherever Xiao Baiyi appears, Liu Bai is nowhere to be found!"
"In other words, the two have never appeared at the same time in the past few decades, and the first time that Xiao Baiyi appeared in the Holy Domain was shortly after Liu Bai was promoted to Half-Saint!"
Li Biluo then handed over a jade slip, which contained a detailed record of Xiao Baiyi's whereabouts.
Indeed, as Li Biluo said, the two have never appeared together.
"By the way, has the Dingtian Holy Land stopped bothering them ever since Xiao Baiyi took control of most of the evil forces?" Gu Jiancheng asked, clutching the jade slip.
"That's right!"
“They even joined forces to hunt down the Evil Valley forces, showing remarkable coordination!” Li Biluo nodded.
"Hehe, that's quite interesting. If Dingtian Holy Land made Liu Bai transform into Xiao Baiyi and rule over the evil forces, then it can be considered a good move by Dingtian Holy Land!" Gu Jiancheng sneered.
Although this speculation can now be considered largely true.
But for Gu Jiancheng, it didn't matter, since both Liu Bai and Xiao Baiyi were enemies anyway.
"Oh, right, Master, there's one more thing. Gu Jingyu is now using the alias Liu Wuqing and has become a disciple of Liu Bai. Now that Liu Bai has entered the Saint Realm, he has also become the third Saint Son of Dingtian Holy Land!" Li Biluo added.
