Chapter 723 Gathering Begins

One of them was the divine maiden Luo Na, who was leading the Divine Mortals Cain and Kali down the hallway.

There was a direct contrast between their moods and the outside world.

Everyone else was exuding great anticipation of seeing the peak geniuses of the universe compete against each other.

While Cain, Kali, and Luo Na's moods were somber, focused on looming trouble on the horizon.

They all were prideful geniuses. But knew today would be when so many things in their Heaven changes.

Still, Kali tried to brighten the mood, even if was just a little bit. She lightly smiled, saying, "You know, even the other prime geniuses would kill to be in our position. To have the famous Everlasting Faith Moon personally lead us to the gathering, your luck is always so high, brother."

Cain wryly smiled. "I'm just glad we didn't have any trouble with those peak geniuses. Though, none of them would've been a problem anyway."

Those words were spoken with supreme confidence. Nothing that either Kali or Luo Na could possibly refute.

Pausing for a moment, Cain continues to say, "So? Are there any lords or direct disciples competing in the first event? I'm assuming there must be someone itching for action."

Luo Na nodded. "Qian of the monster race and Kie from Crimson Thunder. Both of them are slightly more talented than the Divine Decree Lords you faced during the Spring Peach Realm. It's not an exaggeration to call them the peak of all the Prime Lords. Even my great world's own peak Prime Lords can't compare with Qian specifically."

"Oh?" Cain and Kali blinked. Their curiosity surged with Kali saying, "If it's like this, then wouldn't it be no contest on who will win this royale? That Qian fellow seems to be a genius right under the true Young Kings."

Luo Na blinked as she lightly sighed. "It's a common case really. Fairness matters very little, even in a greatly scale competition like this. Furthermore, Qian himself specifically requested to fight the highest Prime Lords all together, even from the Quasi-great worlds. It would have appeared he made a breakthrough in his seclusion that caused him to miss out on the Dao Spring Peach event."

That clicked in the sibling duo's mind on why they had only seen four great worlds show up last time. As for the obvious bias and manipulation of rules, that didn't shock the sibling duo in the slightest.

The Heavenly Great Worlds can practically command anything they want as long it is not from each other.

Kali lightly chuckled. She gave Luo Na a good look over, saying, "There truly is a great source of geniuses here, eh? Though, you and the other represent the peak among peaks, right? That Qian, no matter how powerful he is, will always be under you, no?"

Luo Na had trouble sharing the inner workings of the great world. She said, "Indeed. I can safely say I am the most talented and powerful among the younger generation in my great world. So are other young kings on my level. But there are other Prime Lords and special Prime Faith geniuses who all have made terrifying names for themselves."

There would always be some speck of light in a dark tunnel. Cain threw in some positivity despite their situation. "And I'm assuming it's the same for the other great worlds, right? At least we don't have to worry about a great disparity of talent among ourselves."

"Mn." Luo Na slowly nodded, though her mind was still filled with other thoughts.

Afterward, she led Cain and Kali onto a transmission array. A bright immortal light engulfed. They were soon transported through space, instantly appearing in a luxurious viewing booth meant for only the highest of guests.

Luo Na guided them to their luxurious seats while saying, "In here, we'll have a perfect view of the four battle forms. And it seems we have just arrived on time."

As she spoke, they all settled comfortably in their divine chairs.

Luo Na didn't exaggerate at all. The view of their booth gave them a perfect overview of four floating marital stages.

Each of these martial stages expanded over hundreds of meters long and was built with immortal stones crafted by powerful World Spirit Masters and grandmaster cultivators.

These geniuses can truly unleash all of their skills without having to worry about destructive shockwaves.

And naturally, nobody here watching needed to worry about being able to see the details of the four battle platforms.

Even Great Divine Sea experts' divine eyes had the ability to cover long and wide distances.

For a brief moment, Cain expanded his Chaos Soul Sense. He was slightly curious about what the audience was discussing.

The roaring chatters were palatable. Many conversations soared into Cain's mind.

"I heard that for this martial gathering, there was a far larger number of those in the starter round than before! At least a hundred times more!"

"The standard of geniuses really keeps on growing. I remember participating in the Dao Spring Peach realm and very nearly losing my life."

"Just who will show up in this royale? I hope we get to see one of the great world geniuses...or perhaps even the Divine Mortals!"

All of these divine cultivators were full unending hope for their Heaven. Cain couldn't help but find it a bit ironic for what was about to come.

Soon enough, numerous divine lights began to rush toward the four battle platforms.

All of these divine lights ripple with terrifying divine law principles. Exuding power and abilities that the ordinary elder or Holy King master would never be able to compare to in their entire lives.

This was a great gathering of extreme geniuses. It left the audience with bated breath and awe!

"Look! Look! There she is! Senior Martial Sister Qian really had made it!"

"Brother Hao! He looks even more dashing than usual...he's going to bring the highest pride for all of us!"

"Looking on that battle stage, nobody seems as high and mighty as brother Zheng! He's going to dominate for sure!"

Many youngsters of other Holy Lands were cheering out their support for their martial brothers and sisters. The excitement had already reached its peak.

But suddenly, in a single instant, everything began to rapidly quiet down.

A supreme immortal had suddenly rippled space open. The figure walking out exudes the very existence of the Heavenly Great Dao.

A great world Heavenly Venerate had arrived and suppressed the atmosphere. His voice boomed across the entire martial arena.

"On each platform, only five of you can remain. This event will only also for two hours."

A tense silence suffocated everyone. With a glint surging in the Heavenly Venerate's eyes, he loudly announced,

"Begin!"

'Chi!'

A surging divine aura instantly pulsated throughout the entire area. A sickling sensation twisted apart the atmosphere.

Many weak Holy Kings began to feel sick from these strange divine law principles. The sensation awoke many to utter horror.

"That-that, it's Lord Qian!"

Many couldn't help but narrow their gaze on one battle platform.

Right there was where the sickening divine aura pulsation gushed out. It all came from a devilishly handsome young man.

Faint Dao runes shone across his body. His presence seemed to dominate any and all beneath him.

All eyes were on him on the battle stage. But Lord Qian didn't treat anyone seriously. He coldly chuckled while saying, "Would you look at this? High tier, peak tier, and Quasi-great worlds half-step Prime Lords think they can compete with me? How foolish!"
