Chapter 2679: Chapter 2679: Emperor Da Yi!
After Yang Luo and his group left Xuantian City, they followed the crowd straight to the Xianxia Mountains.
Moreover, besides Xuantian City, cultivators from several surrounding ancient cities were also rushing to the competition venue.
They flew for a full hour.
Finally, Yang Luo and his group arrived at the Xianxia Mountains.
Looking into the distance.
The entire Xianxia Mountains stretched for thousands of miles, seemingly endless.
The mountains rose and fell, layer upon layer, dense forests abounded, flowers and grass flourished, lush and thriving.
The morning clouds filled the sky, mist swirled, auspicious colors soared, the scenery was picturesque.
“Is this the Xianxia Mountains? It’s so beautiful!”
Song Zhixin couldn’t help but exclaim, “This place is simply an earthly paradise, no, it’s an immortal realm!”
Flame Emperor said, “The spiritual energy here is also very abundant, it’s an exceptional place!”
At this moment, many cultivators were flying in from all directions.
After the cultivators arrived here, they flew directly to the central area of the Xianxia Mountains.
“Let’s go, we should head over too!”
Yang Luo said, then led everyone towards the central area.
Before long.
Yang Luo and his group arrived at the central area.
There, ten towering mountains stood tall.
One stood in the center, while the other nine surrounded it.
Platforms paved with white jade slabs were set atop the ten mountains, magnificent and imposing.
At this moment.
Many cultivators had already arrived, landing atop the peaks of the ten surrounding mountains.
The number had already reached the hundreds of thousands, and more people were still coming from all directions.
People gathered in threes and fives, chatting and laughing, the atmosphere bustling.
Bujie glanced around, surprised, “Oh my gosh, are there so many people?!”
“Are all these people here to compete?!”
Ning Jianfeng asked.
Xia Chaoyang laughed and shook his head, “Of course not, besides some who are participating in the competition, most others are here to watch.
After all, the Da Yi Immortal Nation is hosting this competition, inviting artificers from the Four Lesser States to participate.
Although not all artificers from the Four Lesser States came to participate, at least a portion did.
So, besides independent cultivators, many people from the Immortal Sect, Immortal Clan, Immortal Country, and Holy Land have come to watch.
These forces are not just here to watch the competition, but also to scout for talented artificers to recruit.”
“I see.”
Bujie and the others nodded in realization.
Yang Luo asked, “Will the ruler of the Da Yi Immortal Nation be coming?”
Xia Chaoyang replied, “For such a grand competition, the ruler of the Da Yi Immortal Nation will definitely be present.”
While Yang Luo and the others were chatting.
The crowd stirred into excitement.
“People from the Heavenly Dao Sect, Qi Ling Valley, Xuanbao Palace, and Divine Machine Sect have arrived!”
“As expected of the strongest Artifact Refining Sects in the Four Lesser States, they sure have a grand entrance!”
“This time, all four of the strongest Artifact Refining Sects are participating, they might just sweep the top ten!”
People looked up at the sky in the distance, discussing fervently.
Yang Luo and his group also turned to look.
In the distance, four ancient boats, each hundreds of meters long, flew over.
The four ancient boats emitted dazzling immortal light, clearly extraordinary flying immortal treasures.
Each ancient boat flew a large flag, standing on them were hundreds of people, male and female, old and young, with outstanding and ethereal demeanors.
Soon, the four ancient boats hovered over this area.
Many people greeted them with enthusiasm.
Those on the ancient boats waved back with smiles, their faces glowing, exuding confidence.
“Hmph, what’s so special about them!”
Bujie rolled his eyes and muttered, “I’m sure it will be our Brother Yang winning first place in this competition!”
Wu Qiansheng said, “Brother Yang, it looks like your biggest competitors in this competition are the representatives sent by these four great sects!”
Yang Luo grunted in acknowledgment without saying much more.
Anyway, he had already prepared; he only needed to perform normally.
As time passed, more and more people arrived, the number exceeding two hundred thousand.
The surrounding mountains were almost fully occupied by people.
As time slowly trickled away.
Before long.
The crowd stirred once again.
“They’re here, the ruler of the Da Yi Immortal Nation and the Country Protecting Elders have arrived!”
“Besides the ruler and the Country Protecting Elders of the Da Yi Immortal Nation, elders from the four top-tier Artifact Refining Sects and the four first-rate Artifact Refining Sects have also arrived!”
People looked towards the sky in the distance, filled with excitement.
Yang Luo and his group also looked up.
A group of people flew over from the distance.
Leading them was a middle-aged man dressed in a purple-gold robe, with a sturdy build and commanding presence, exuding an authoritative aura.
Following him were a group of sage-like, otherworldly elders.
Xia Chaoyang said, “Brother Yang, that middle-aged man is the ruler of the Da Yi Immortal Nation, Yi Jiuxiao, titled ‘Emperor Da Yi’.
Trailing right behind Yi Jiuxiao are the three Country Protecting Elders of the Da Yi Immortal Nation: Yi Tianhong, Zhao Tingyu, and Zheng Fengshi.
After them are the eight elders from the four top-tier Artifact Refining Sects and the four first-rate Artifact Refining Sects of the Four Lesser States.”
Yang Luo nodded, raising his eyes to look at Yi Jiuxiao.
As the ruler of the Da Yi Immortal Nation, Yi Jiuxiao indeed carried an extraordinary aura, with imperial majesty and dominance.
Moreover, Yang Luo could sense that Yi Jiuxiao was without a doubt a Daluo Golden Immortal.
Soon, Yi Jiuxiao and the others descended to the high platform on the central great mountain.
“Greetings to Emperor Da Yi and all the elders!”
The more than two hundred thousand people present bowed respectfully.
“Everyone, no need for formalities!”
Yi Jiuxiao raised his hand slightly, cupping his hands he said, “I am truly grateful for the heavenly prides and heroes here, for taking the time out of your busy schedules to participate in this Artifact Refining Competition!”
His voice was loud and clear, reaching everyone’s ears, making a deep impact.
The three Country Protecting Elders also cupped their hands, their faces full of smiles.
“Emperor Da Yi, you’re being too polite, since you extended the invitation, we naturally had to come!”
“Indeed, we wanted to join in the festivities of such a grand competition!”
Everyone waved their hands with smiles.
Yi Jiuxiao nodded and continued, “This time, the number of registrants in the competition reached thirty-eight thousand five hundred and twenty!
Although our Four Lesser States have held many Artifact Refining Competitions before, none compare to this year’s scale, thanks to everyone’s presence!
We hope the artificers participating in this competition can perform at their best and achieve excellent results!”
“Haha, absolutely!”
“Emperor Da Yi, what prizes are up for grabs this year?”
“Yeah, Emperor Da Yi, give us a hint!”
Everyone clamored.
“Since everyone wants to know, let me tell you all!”
Yi Jiuxiao laughed heartily, then said, “The prizes this year are quite generous!
Especially for the top three, their prizes are the most lavish!”
“Really?! What prizes can the top three receive?!”
Everyone was brimming with anticipation.
