Chapter 249 - Holy Lands

The Thunderous Collision World is unimaginably vast. Wanting to calculate its accurate distance would simply be impossible. 

Even millions of miles of distance seemed completely average to any God Galaxy cultivator.

But though everything is significantly separated from each other, the inhabits of the God Galaxies had, of course, found numerous ways to traverse. 

With the power of space, many Martial cultivators and even World Spirit Masters can utilize the great void shift and traverse massive distances.

Great Void shift tears through the God Galaxies realms' void, creating space-time channels anyone can travel through. 

World Spirit Masters similarly creates transmissions arrays for near-instantaneous travel and for the travel of any source of news.

Millions of miles on the far west side of the Thunderous Collision World, a vast, endless sea, sparkling with crystalline essence beads majestically spread across. 

Countless, massive Spirit Beasts soared through the sea, all of them heavily ranging in their species, sizes, and colors.

It was a breathtaking sight to witness all assortment of these beautiful Spirit Beasts. 

But at the same time, the aura permeating this area would be enough to severely pressure any peak Sage Core expert to the point of suffocation.

If one were to tear open the void above the endless sea, they would peer into a gargantuan hidden world. 

In this hidden world, a faint misty fiery red aura permeates all throughout, creating a scenery of absolute splendor. 

By just peering into this fiery mist would be the equivalent of seeing the traces of fire from a noble Phoenix God beast! 

This hidden world was the Ancient Phoenix Holy Land's hidden world.

All throughout the hidden world, one can see an endless amount of Divine bird type of Spirit Beast gracefully flying. 

Numerous amounts of celestial mountains, immortal islands, and immortal palaces are scattered all throughout, some of them even being as large as a small planet.

Inhabiting these various space dimensions are millions among millions of Pheonix citizens. Though all celestial mountains, immortal islands, and immortal palaces are extravagantly massive, it was all just enough to fit these God Galaxies cultivators.

Each immortal areas have different subversions in the skies. The higher the immortal area, the more resources and purer the Divine essence of Heaven and Earth.

At the second-highest celestial mountain contained a grand sight for the ages. 

Upon here was a metropolis of a city that nearly covered the entire range of the celestial mountain.

The city structure illuminated in a brilliant fiery red glow, and each building had beautiful Phoenix carvings running along it. The grandiose of this city would be like entering into an entirely new dimension for even an experienced God Galaxy cultivator.

This was the Ancient Phoenix Holy Lands' main sub-branch, Phoenix City. 

For most, if not all Holy Lands or Imperial Martial Family, they would have numerous sub-branches that dealt with the mundane world, such as distributing resources and spreading information.

Phoenix City contains one of several Ancient Phoenix Holy Land's Holy intelligence networks. 

From here, the news gets instantly transferred through a variety of ways, the preferred methods being World Spirit Masters transmissions arrays.

And just recently, the Ancient Phoenix Holy Lands had just received immensely troublings news that affected their entirety. 

At the highest point of the hidden world stood one massive immortal palace that's range eclipsed small planets that were hundreds of thousands wide in diameter.

This immortal palace was sculptured in the dignity of the Ancient Phoenix God beast. Its wall was coated with an enchanting fiery glow crafted from radiant Fire Laws. A dignified aura exuded from it, obstructing any weaker cultivator from even coming close to it.

This immortal palace was the Ancient Phoenix Holy Lands main sect branch. 

And within it, a critical sect meeting was currently taking place. 

Inside a massive fiery red chamber, numerous extraordinary people sat around a large table.

Out of everyone, there were two people who stood far above everyone else. 

One was a beautiful woman whose aura seemed as bright as the sun itself. Just getting into her general vicinity would soar one's body temperature to painful degrees.

Without any regard for anyone else but herself, the woman continually exuded her powerful, sunny aura, showcasing a domineering presence nobody would dare to go against.

Her piercing fiery red eyes could alight one's Soul with flames by just a mere gaze. 

This commanding woman was the Ancient Phoenix Holy Land's Sect Master, Qiao Tu!

The only other exceedingly notable person was Qiao Tu's right-hand man. He held the closes seat to Qiao Tu and equally exuded a commanding presence. 

His long fiery beard glowed with a sparkling charm, and his robust tall body nearly towered over everyone in the meeting.

He was the highest supreme Elder Ming. 

As for the rest, they were various high Elders that held a large amount of weight in the Ancient Phoenix Holy Lands. 

These Elders, highest supreme Elder, and even Sect Master who usually wears superior, confident expressions now all had great disbelief crossing their faces.

The troubling news of their direct rivals was more than enough to cause waves even in their old, experienced Martial Hearts. 

Starting of their meeting, Qiao Tu curled her brows at Elder Ming, asking, "It's been a reasonable amount of time, has this news been correctly verified." 

Elder Ming paused for a moment, collecting his disorganized thoughts. Slightly shaking his head, he explained, "There's simply no mistake about it. Our Holy intelligence network cross-checked it and even directly contacted the ordinary Huang Dragon's citizens. Apparently, out of even their expectations, three outstanding Martial Talents have popped up. One zenith limit Divine Ruler, one Holy King, and one Primal Sovereign."

"So it really is true! Those Dragon's Dao Diagrams are superior to ours, yet they managed to achieve results like this? I'm almost unwilling to believe so." 

"Far too strange in my eyes. Just how can these supposed talents not appear for so long? Just who exactly are these three?" 

The other high-level Elders promptly began to murmur among themselves.

Cutting into their whispers, Elder Ming said, "The ones are their Royal descendants. The sixth princess and seventh prince specifically. Along with them is a Dragon companion of the seventh prince. The excuses the Huang Dragons are fabricating is that the sixth princess and seventh prince could always cultivate. It was just that their foundation took a long time of accumulation to actually emerge."

"Can such a thing really happen? Indeed, there have been times in history when great Martial Talents started their road a little later in their generation. But 18 years late? That's far too suspicious!"

"Moreover, Holy King and Primal Soverigen talent? Not even the High-level God Galaxies realms can so causally produce such amazing talents. I'm more than willing to believe some kind of ploy is silently occurring…"

The high-level Elders and even Elder Ming and Qiao Tu were mixed on this news. 

On the one hand, they were more than aware of the Dragon Altar Step's Dao Diagrams. 

They themselves have something extremely similar, coming in the form of the Phoenix Altar Steps. 

In fact, many across the God Galaxies Realms, even the Heavenly Great Worlds, have Dao Diagrams to test the younger generation's talents.

At the very least, everyone in the God Galaxies clearly knows how accurate Dao Diagrams are. 

But at the same time, without an actual shred of video evidence or live witness, it was challenging to so readily believe this news. 

Only those in Yellow Dragon City managed to receive actual proof of Cain's group talent. And naturally, such evidence wouldn't be so causally distributed to their rivaling forces. 

Sharing news could potentially be just as great a weapon as Martial cultivation. And evidently, the Huang Dragons wouldn't want Cain's group image to be frantically spread around until they somewhat matured.

Either way, the Phoenix were aware that the likelihood of this news truly being correct is at least 95%. 

None of the Huang Dragons were fools. To reach their point, extraordinary intelligence is needed, or else, they would've stayed as unimportant low-mid order Martial Family. 

In this unclear situation, one of the high-level Elders asked, "Sect Master, just what should we do now? It's troubling to admit, but just a zenith limit Divine Ruler surpasses even Liao Wu's talent!"

Qiao Tu slowly closed her radiant eyes. A small sigh leaked from her mouth, her mind heavily contemplating this situation. 

It could be argued that this meeting is a bit of an overreaction to news they're not sure about.

But for these shrewd old monsters, they were accustomed to knicking even the slightest problem straight in the bud. Letting problems stew because it seems unthreatening at the time is the downfall of countless Imperial Empires, grand Holy Lands, and even Heavenly Great Worlds!

It was a tactic understanding that was just the standard norm of their utterly merciless reality. 

But even when understanding this, Qiao Tu truly couldn't formulate any viable conclusion as of now.

Though their younger generation is on a massive rise in suppressing the Huang Dragon's younger generation, their main fighting force is faintly equal to the Huang Dragons.

In fact, because of the quality of bloodline, power of their physique, and numerous other racial advantages, it could be said that overall, the Huang Dragon is honestly just slightly superior to the Ancient Phoenix. 

Considering this, there wasn't any viable situation where they could suppress or form the Huang Dragons to their whims. 

Qiao Tu lightly sighed, "All we can do is to keep a close critical eye on that specific trio. The Ancient Dragons will stop at nothing to foster and protect them if their words really are true. But even if they are true, it is not like we will stay stagnant. Have you all finished deciding about the Nightmare Realm?"

Elder Ming promptly nodded, replying, "Yes, we have. Fu Kang, Xun Ki, and Ye Bi have all outstandingly passed the last Holy competition. Each of them showcased comprehension with Laws that are only just slightly lacking than Fan Yanting. Moreover, their foundations are incredibly solid, and they managed to reach firstfall Divine Origin at just 19! No one other than them is qualified."

"Ah, those three indeed are the shining stars of our generation. I'm more than positive they can simply end up dominating the Nightmare Realm." Qiao Tu said.

"That is a very high chance. But at the same time, these surrounding geniuses are nothing to scoff at."

"Not only that, but I can just tell the Huang Dragons will have a great surge of confidence over this recent news. They might even go out of their way to suppress us because of their resentment."

The other high-level Elders broke out into discussions. Each of them was equally worried and hopeful. 

Amidst the noisy talks, Qiao Tu's voice still managed to reign supreme as she said, "Matters like this can only be left to the younger generation. These challenges can be a perfect sharpening tool for them. Moreover, I doubt anyone's cultivation will be as high as their at just the mere age of 19. So far, our advantages are too overwhelming."

Her words were short, simple, and straightforward. But just from this, it inspired masses waves of confidence in each Elder's Martial Hearts. 

Their once puzzled expressions from the Huang Dragons bloomed into supremely confident smiles. 

In their eyes, this uncertain time would only be the beginning of their own inevitable rise.
