I Turn Out to Be a Grand Master - Chapter 169
Chapter 169: Reverend Wan Xuan!
Although the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets was one of the largest chambers of commerce in the Southern Region, its foundation was still far inferior to that of the Danxia Holy Land.
Yu Hongye saw many mystic treasure-level flying ships flying past in front of her. Those were the flying ships of large sects. The depth of their foundation made Yu Hongye click her tongue in wonder.
“No wonder my Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets didn’t have a good ranking even after participating in this treasure gathering many times. I thought it was because my ancestors were unlucky and didn’t receive the appreciation of the Immortals. Only then did I know that my vision and scope were small.”
Yu Hongye thought of the painting that Senior Liu had painted.
The immortal scene depicted in the painting was even more majestic than the scene in front of her. That was a scene that only the true Immortal World could have.
The people of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets had waited in the Danxia Holy Land for three days. Every day, countless flying boats rushed to the Danxia Holy Land.
They were either people from large sects or itinerant cultivators who came to try their luck.
These people carried all kinds of rare and precious treasures with them. The light from the treasures they discovered illuminated the Million Miles Immortal Mountains of the Danxia Holy Land in a myriad of colors. It was a magnificent sight.
After seven days, all the cultivators walked out from their residences and rushed to the empty space in the center of the Danxia Holy Land.
The treasure gathering began now!
The center of the Danxia Holy Land was an open square, built specifically for the Myriad Treasures Convention.
Every brick and stone in the square was paved with expensive orange zircon. At a glance, it was yellow, golden, and magnificent.
In the center of the square stood ten ten ten thousand feet tall stone pillars.
The ten stone pillars were arranged in a row. Each stone pillar was exquisitely carved and beautifully decorated.
“These ten stone pillars are the top-grade pillars that summons the Immortals of the upper realm. They also represent the top ten positions in the treasure gathering.”
“Only the treasures that truly allow the Immortals to show off will be chosen by the Immortals to be on the stone pillars and receive the attention of thousands of people.”
The people from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets and a group of cultivators gathered around the square.
Yu Mingzhi explained everything to Yu Hongye.
Yu Hongye listened carefully. Before she took a glance, she saw a few cultivators in gorgeous robes descending from the sky on their flying lights.
Among them, an old man with long flowing hair and a white beard landed at the head of the group.
That old man exuded an aura that made everyone tremble.
Yu Hongye was somewhat disdainful. That old man was extremely sharp. He was not like Senior Liu, who had returned to his natural state and looked like an ordinary person.
When most of the cultivators saw the old man, their faces also showed respect.
“Greetings, Reverend Wan Xuan.”
Yu Mingzhi’s eyes also showed a hint of respect as he said to Yu Hongye, “This is one of the Grand Elders of the Myriad Afterglow Holy Land. He is in charge of presiding over the Myriad Treasures Convention. He has presided over the myriad treasures convention in the past.”
“Although his cultivation is not considered to be at the peak, and he is only at the middle stage of the Void Interpretation stage, everyone knows that he is the mouthpiece of the Immortals of the upper realm. Even if he is an almighty at the later stage of the Tribulation Transcension, they still have to give him some face. Reverend Wan Xuan can be considered to be a highly respected senior.”
Yu Hongye was stunned when she heard this.
A person who had the backing of an Exalted Immortal was indeed powerful.
Yu Hongye also had a deep understanding of this point. The last time when she obtained the inheritance in the Startling Rainbow Valley, Liu Changgong had given all the inheritance to her.
Moreover, she had also grown into a powerful cultivator who was in the Tribulation Transcension stage while serving Senior Liu.
She had become a cultivator who had entered the Tribulation Transcension stage at such a young age. Many itinerant cultivators wouldn’t be able to achieve such an achievement even after thousands of years of painstaking cultivation.
Yu Hongye was secretly delighted.
“I am honored by your praise, fellow Daoists. I will be the host of this Myriad Treasures Convention.”
Reverend Wan Xuan bowed to his surroundings and said with a bright smile on his face, “Fellow Daoists, your luck is sky-high. You must have brought many treasures with you and want to show them off in front of the Exalted Immortal. I won’t waste any more time. I will summon the Exalted Immortal for you now.”
Reverend Wan Xuan’s words gave people a feeling of being bathed in the spring breeze.
He then took out some array disks and began to activate the array formation on the ten stone pillars.
In the crowd, the wooden youth Wu Wu stood quietly. He looked like he was in a daze, but in reality, he was communicating with the old man in his mind.
“This lord of the Danxia Holy Land is very cunning. It’s clearly their Danxia Holy Land that has taken advantage of you, but he spoke as if he wanted you to take advantage of him. Seriously.”
Wu Wu said in his heart:
“Senior, is this Danxia Holy Land also very influential in the upper realm?”
The old man replied, “Their influence isn’t very big, but they are very rich. The Danxia Holy Land has a set of treasure-seeking techniques in the upper realm, so their disciples are all very rich. I asked you to offer up any treasures in this Myriad Treasures Convention, and that has something to do with their treasure-seeking techniques. As long as you offer up that treasure, the Danxia Sect’s upper realm disciples will definitely discover the mystery behind it. That treasure is very important to them, so they will definitely satisfy your request.”
After Wu Wu heard the old man’s explanation, he felt much more at ease before he calmed down.
At this moment, the row of stone pillars in the middle of the square had already begun to emit dazzling multicolored light.
The spell formations on the ten stone pillars intersected with each other, forming a mysterious power that seemed to be connected to the upper realm from an invisible place.
Everyone subconsciously raised their heads to look at the sky, only to see a brilliant ray of multicolored light appear in the sky.
An incomparably powerful spiritual sense appeared in the sky.
Immediately after, a slender figure appeared in the multicolored light. His face was covered by a secret spell, causing people to feel endless admiration in their hearts.
All the cultivators in the square were greatly shocked. They bowed and shouted in unison,
“Welcome, Exalted Immortal.”
Wu Wu hid in the crowd and bowed slightly. He shouted crazily in his heart, ‘One day, I will also be as high and mighty as that person. I will make everyone look up to me and look down on them.’
Yu Hongye used the corner of her eyes to look at the towering figure in the sky.
However, although she looked very respectful on the surface, she didn’t have the slightest bit of reverence in her heart.
She only felt that the Immortal’s pressure was very weak now.
The pressure that Senior Liu had inadvertently given her was much less.
The Immortal’s pressure even seemed to be intentional.
Moreover, the Immortal’s appearance was very pompous.
Compared to the low-key Senior Li, the Immortal’s realm was far inferior.
Yu Hongye instantly lost interest in the rewards of the Myriad Treasures Convention.
That person’s strength was so poor, and the rewards he gave were probably even worse than the Senior’s painting.
She even somewhat regretted participating in this Myriad Treasures Convention.
However, when she remembered that she was Senior’s chess piece, she could only continue.
The figure in the sky seemed to nod slightly, and then the terrifying aura that enveloped the entire place disappeared.
Everyone took a deep breath.
It was time for Reverend Wan Xuan to announce:
“The Myriad Treasures Convention has officially begun!”
Following this shout, all the cultivators present couldn’t wait to take out their treasures.
There were magic treasures, medicinal pills, materials, spirit ores, jade slips, spirit beasts…
There was even some secret news.
