My Disciples Are All Villains Novel - Chapter 697
Chapter 697: Preaching to the World (Part Two)
The cultivators waited silently. They came from all over the nine provinces and major sects. There were many elites from the Divine Capital gathered here as well. They were fearful and respectful.
They looked at the Evil Sky Pavilion situated at the top of Golden Court Mountain. Throughout the years, they had never once felt that the Evil Sky Pavilion was as invincible as it was today.
Golden Court Mountain was not steep or towering. However, that did not stop the cultivators from regarding everything here with fearful respect. They even treated the plants here in that manner.
At this moment, Mingshi Yin and Si Wuya flew down from the mountain.
The cultivators looked up with expressions of fearful respect on their faces.
The first person on the white list, Shen Liangshou, said, “They’re the Evil Sky Pavilion’s Mister Fourth and Mister Seventh.”
The others nodded.
From the Three Sects, Nan Gongwei and Feng Yizhi cupped their fists together at the same time. “Mister Fourth, Mister Seventh.”
The others greeted them as well.
Mingshi Yin and Si Wuya flew out of the barrier. They swept their gaze across the cultivators present.
Si Wuya frowned slightly. Their numbers were slightly more than what he liked. Although the Evil Sky Pavilion had four pavilions, there were thousands of cultivators here. Even if they could fit inside the pavilions, they would be uncomfortably packed.
Some cultivators began to discuss among themselves in hushed tones.
“This is Evil Sky Pavilion’s Mister Seventh. He’s the master of the Darknet, the brains of the Evil Sky Pavilion. He has agents everywhere.”
“That’s Mister Fourth. He has both brains and brawn… Don’t be fooled by his weak cultivation base. He always managed to defeat opponents more powerful than himself.”
At this moment, Si Wuya projected his voice with Primal Qi. “Silence.”
The lively crowd immediately quietened down as they looked at Si Wuya.
Si Wuya scanned the crowd and said, “My master has decided to preach to the world so that everyone can improve their cultivation bases as quickly as possible and fight against the invasion of the beasts. I’m sure everyone here is aware of the manmans and Qiong Qi’s attacks. I won’t go into detail about that… The preaching itself is only a means. There’s no guarantee that everyone will be able to reach the Nine-leaf stage. I’m going to lead you up the mountain on my master’s orders… However, before that, I’d like to make something clear.”
At this moment, Si Wuya’s voice deepened as he said sternly, “Those who enter must abide by the Evil Sky Pavilion’s rules. There will be no noise-making, infighting, flying, going near the eastern and southern pavilions, or loitering around the forest. Those who break these rules will have to bear the consequences.”
The others nodded in agreement after Si Wuya finished speaking.
The Tian Sect’s Master, Nan Gongwei, cupped his fists together and said, “That’s only natural. Since we’re here to learn, we must disregard our own positions. Moreover, this is the Evil Sky Pavilion. Who would dare to go against the rules?” He spoke in a loud and clear voice.
“That’s right! There can be no order without rules! A chaotic situation won’t be conducive to learning. You’re a wise person, Mister Seventh!”
“I agree!”
“I completely agree!”
Most of the cultivators raised their hands and agreed.
Mingshi Yin said in a voice only Si Wuya could hear, “Since when did we have these rules?”
“Just now…” Si Wuya replied in an equally quiet tone.
“…” Mingshi Yin gave him a thumbs-up. He gave him a look that said: You’re the man.
Si Wuya continued addressing the crowd in a loud voice, “To ensure that the preaching progresses smoothly… Those who enter the Evil Sky Pavilion must fulfill the following conditions…”
The cultivators seemed to have expected as much. They knew not everyone would be allowed entry. This was the Evil Sky Pavilion, not a street in the city.
“First, those above the Five-leaf stage, move to the left. Pass through the barrier and summon your avatars,” Si Wuya said.
Then, hundreds of cultivators flew to the left excitedly.
Regardless of the times, cultivators above the Five-leaf stage were always the mainstay in the cultivation world.
The others looked disappointed. However, they understood the reasoning behind this so they had no complaints.
This condition alone filtered out most of the cultivators.
“Second, those between the One and Five-leaf stage who are younger than 50, move to the right. Pass through the barrier and summon your avatars.”
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
This time, only dozens of cultivators flew out to the right. However, they were no less excited than the cultivators standing on the left.
“Third, those who have entered the Divine Court realm within ten years or enter the Brahman Sea realm within five years, move to the middle. Pass through the barrier and summon your avatars.”
This time, only three cultivators stepped forward and moved to the middle.
At this moment, someone who did not meet the conditions said, “Mister Seventh, how are you going to judge if our cultivation bases are authentic or not? I can also say that I’ve entered the Brahman Sea realm within five years.”
Si Wuya nodded and said, “I have a technique of judging a person’s age by touching his bone. Those who lied will leave on their own accord. I won’t hold it against them…” Then, he looked at the people to his right and in front of him.
Two cultivators to the right trembled and immediately apologized. “Please forgive us, Mister Seventh. Have mercy! We’ve made a mistake. We’ll leave!”
The others frowned at the duo as they left.
When the forest was large, there would be all kinds of birds. Even the sun, with its size, could not shine on every corner of the world.
“I’d ask the rest of you to go back to where you come from…” Si Wuya said before he flew toward the barrier’s opening.
The chosen cultivators gathered around him.
The other cultivators did not leave right away. They stayed and watched.
At the entrance of the barrier, Si Wuya said, “This way.”
The cultivators entered the barrier.
“Nan Gongwei of Tian Sect.”
“Feng Yizhi of Yun Sect.”
“Zhang Zhishui of Blossom Faction.”
Every cultivator would announce their names and factions they belonged to. At the same time, they summoned their avatars to prove their strength before entering the barrier.
After some time…
“Jie Kai from the Ancient Saint Cult.” Jie Kai summoned his avatar. Unlike the others who only one manifested miniature avatars, he was the only who manifested his full-size avatar. It was 100 feet tall.
The others in the area were in awe.
Currently, the Evil Sky Pavilion was currently the place with the highest number of elites gathered in the golden lotus domain. Naturally, there were many elites and geniuses who could not make it due to the distance.
“Wait a minute…” Si Wuya said.
The Ancient Saint Cult’s Master, Jie Kai, asked, “Is anything the matter, Mister Seventh?”
“I heard the Ancient Saint Cult’s Master is Zhu Tianyuan…” Si Wuya said.
“The Ancient Saint Cult has withdrawn from the cultivation world for many years now. I’m surprised the Evil Sky Pavilion knows this. Zhu Tianyuan is the former sect master. He resigned and left a long time ago,” Jie Kai said. Based on his words, it was obvious he was unaware of the relationship between Zhu Tianyuan and the Evil Sky Pavilion.
This was related to the promise made when Ji Tiandao recruited his disciples. The disciples of the Evil Sky Pavilion had to sever all ties with their past. Their family members were not allowed to speak about it as well. It was only natural that Jie Kai did not know anything about the matter.
“Proceed.” Si Wuya made an inviting gesture.
A curious expression appeared on Mingshi Yin’s face as he asked in a hushed tone, “Why did you allow him to enter?”
“Zhu Tianyuan is in the southern pavilion… Isn’t it better for them to settle their problem?” Si Wuya asked.
“You have a point… I can count on you to be cunning,” Mingshi Yin said with a smile.
Soon enough, the cultivators had all entered the barrier.
The talented cultivators at the left and center flew in as well.
Many female cultivators with delicate and pretty appearances exposed their arms in preparation for Si Wuya to check their bones.
Si Wuya shook his head. “Proceed.” He allowed them to enter without touching them.
“Heh… Old Seventh, since when did you become a hypocrite? Why aren’t you checking them when you should?” Mingshi Yin said as he rolled his eyes.
Si Wuya said in a low voice, “I made that technique up as well.”
“No… I think it’s true. Don’t be shy, go on…” Mingshi Yin said.
Si Wuya. “…” He did not want to entertain Mingshi Yin.
At the same time, the middle-aged red lotus cultivator was looking at the opening of the barrier nearby in the forest. He muttered under his breath, “Two more days…”
