This young man was dressed in fancy clothes and did not look like a strong person no matter how he looked, in fact Ning Cheng was clear that this was definitely a truly strong person.
The young man in fancy clothes stood on the giant altar and made a Dan Master’s salute to all the people in the Dan Dao Square and said in a warm manner, “Thank you to the top Dan Masters of the Five Taiyi Realm for coming here to participate in this Five Realms Dan Competition. I am Mu Zuo Yi, the leader of the Taiyi Realm Dan Association, and the initiator of the Five Realms Dan Competition ……”
Mu Zuo Yi’s words drew a burst of cheers, young and handsome, with a high cultivation level, the number one Dan Daoist, and even the head of the Dan Association in the Taiyi Realm beyond the three great sects of the Five Great Dao Courts. If there are stars here, then Mu Zuo Yi is undoubtedly one of the superstars of the Taiyi Realm.
In fact it was true, every time Mu Zuo Yi appeared, he would draw a lot of cheers. Perhaps not for the sake of star-following, but Mu Zuo Yi’s achievements were enough to convince anyone, and this cheering represented a kind of recognition, a kind of pursuit and aspiration for everyone.
With a smile on his face, Mu Zuo Zuoren said calmly, “This time for the Five Realms Dan Competition, we are fortunate enough to have invited Dansheng Zhong Baigong of the Liutai Dao Court, Dansheng Pu Lao of the Yunguang Dao Court, First Dansaint Chen Ying Xin of the Yuqing Dao Court, First Dansaint Li Mor of the Taixuan Dao Court, and Master Zuo Gu Si Ze of the Miyu Dao Sect. In addition to this, there are the various Dan Guild Masters of the Five Tai Realms, as well as the many City Masters of the Great Dao Courts.”
As Mu Zuo Zuoren spoke, a figure landed on the judging table, and Si Chen Qiu Tian, who was sitting beside Ning Cheng, also stood up and walked to the judging table. As the Head of the One Realm Dan Association, Si Chuan Qiu Tian was still qualified to sit on a seat.
Ning Cheng was secretly shocked in his heart, but he knew how powerful these people, Lu Dong Ce and Kong Lian Bo, were, as well as that middle-aged Confucian scholar, Liu Fang Zhen, who was also a powerful person.
But these powerful people did not even have the qualifications to declare their names in Mu Zuo Yi’s mouth. This was apart from the fact that the Five Great Dao Courts and the Three Great Dao Sects were indeed incredibly strong, those who could be reported by Mu Zuo Zuoren’s name. Their strength would definitely not be weak.
Very soon Ning Cheng knew that he had not guessed wrong, there were at least seven or eight of those people sitting in the crowd on the judging table. Ning Cheng sensed that they were no weaker than the Du Xuan Ancient Clan’s Li Feng. And Ning Cheng knew even more clearly that the strong people sitting on the judging faculty of the Five Realms Dan Competition today. They were definitely not the strongest in the entire Taiyi Realm, not even ranked in the top many. The reason why they could sit here was that apart from representing their respective powers, there was also the fact that they were a little more outstanding in terms of their Dan Dao level.
The Taiyi Realm was worthy of being the most comprehensive realm in terms of the rules of heaven and earth, and the strength of the Tai Su Realm was not sure how many times worse than the Taiyi Realm.
“The Five Realms Dan Competition has experienced many years since it was held until now. Although some genius dan masters have emerged from my Five Realms of Tai Su Realm over the years, but to be true. I have never been able to find a Dan master who can truly surpass me. This is my sorrow, and the sorrow of my Five Tai Realms.”
As Mu Zuo Zuo spoke, the square seemed to be affected as the cheering voices quieted down.
Ning Cheng whispered and asked Xi Xi who was beside him, “Xi Xi, do you know what is going on?”
XiXi hurriedly explained, “Senior Mu is the number one Dan Saint of the Five Tai Realms, and his Dan Dao level has reached the peak height of a realm. Even when Senior Mu was so highly skilled in the Dan Dao, I heard that he had lost to someone else. Senior Mu had made a vow back then that if the Five Tai Realms could not find a Dan master who could compete with the other. He would never leave the Five Tai Realms again. Because of this, Senior Mu held the Five Realms Dan Competition.
As a result, the Five Realms Dan Competition had been held many times, and there had never been a single dan master who would be seen by Senior Mu. Then brought out to compete with each other in a Dan Dao competition. This matter is known to everyone in the Taiyi Realm, so it’s normal for you, Brother Ning, not being from the Taiyi Realm, not to know.”
Ning Cheng was secretly shocked in his heart, Lu Dong Ce and Kong Lian Bo’s Dan Dao level was definitely first class among first class, and they were definitely Mixed Element Dan Saints. Mu Zuo Yi’s Dan Dao level should be far beyond that of Lu Dong Ce and Kong Lian Bo. Even Mu Zuo Yi’s Dan Dao was no match for the other party’s, so how strong must the other party’s Dan Dao be?
Mu Zuo Zuoren continued in a low tone, “Originally, we intended to decide the winner of this Dan Dao competition directly with the Dan Dao. I had a new idea after listening to the Dan battle between the Tai Shi Realm’s Dan Association Master Lu Dong Ce and Tai Su Realm’s Dan Master Ning Cheng. In this Dan Competition we will decide the winner in three rounds. The first round will also determine the winner through identification. In order to avoid outstanding dan masters like Ning Cheng not being able to recognise them, we will not use names to determine the winner this time. Instead, the winner will be decided by the role given by the dan masters.”
At this point, Mu Zuo Yi paused for a moment and glanced at the Dan masters who were about to participate in the Dan Competition before continuing, “What is slightly different from before is that this time we are not identifying the Divine Spirit Grass directly, but the seeds of the Divine Spirit Grass or the Dao Fruits. Those who can’t identify them in the first round will be eliminated directly, even if their Dan Dao level is high.”
After hearing Mu Zuo Zuoren’s words, the dan masters participating in the Dan Competition all murmured in some confusion. There were people who had a high level of Dan Dao, but because they were not very knowledgeable. If they were directly eliminated because they didn’t recognise an out-of-the-way divine Spirit Grass seed, was such a selection considered fair?
Ning Cheng was also a little puzzled by this selection in his heart, if he hadn’t looked at the grasses and trees in the universe before, he was afraid that his insight would be the lowest. However, Ning Cheng never thought that his level of Dan Dao was the lowest. His low level of insight was because his exposure to the Dan Dao was too short and he did not have the opportunity to come into contact with top Dan Dao divine scrolls such as the Uma Cao Mu.
Mu Zuo Yi did not change because of the crowd’s comments, and still said unhurriedly, “The Dao of Dan is also one of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and many people here know what the second divine power of the Ten Great Divine Powers in the vast universe is, right? That’s right, the second of the Ten Great Divine Powers is the Great Destiny Divine Power, which we can also call Qi Luck. If a Dan Daoist does not have enough Qi luck, even if his Dan Dao talent is strong, his achievements will be limited.
Fate is inscrutable to our generation of cultivators. But there are indeed people who go beyond destiny and take their qi luck into their own hands. What if once they could control each other’s destiny? My master once told me to go as far as I could when I met a strong person who could control the destiny of the other. And in a world where there are no strong people who control destiny, the destiny of my generation of dan masters will be controlled by the nether heavenly dao. If you don’t even have the qi to come into contact with the top Dan Dao divine scrolls, how can you talk about reaching the peak of the Dan Dao?”
Ning Cheng had originally been unimpressed, feeling that Mu Zuo Zuoren’s title was unfair to many people. However, after hearing Mu Zuozuo’s words, a chill ran down his back. No matter how powerful he was with the Xuanhuang Pearl, so what? If he met a strong person who could control the divine power of fate, he was afraid that he would not even be considered a mole.
Even if he did not meet a powerful person who could control his destiny, his destiny was not under his control, it was under the control of the heavenly dao.
He is still a small pawn in his cultivation and struggle up to now. Perhaps he had opportunities, he met the Xuanhuang Pearl, and he almost perfected his Xuanhuang Pearl by virtue of his luck. But all of this is just his qi, once his qi runs out, what will happen to him? Even if his qi was still there and he met a powerful person who controlled his destiny and pinched all of his qi, what could he do?
Ning Cheng’s mind was no longer on the Dan Guild Grand Competition, and after hearing for the first time that the second Great Avatar was the Great Destiny Avatar, his heart was completely unbalanced.
“No matter how strong the Fate divine Ability is, it is not the number one divine Ability among the Chaotic Universe. That person who controls the Divine Aptitude of Destiny has also gone from step to step like us. Your destiny is not in what you want to do, but in what you are prepared to do. Master Ning Dan is amazingly talented, so why bother with a mere fate? When it comes to what you are prepared to do, your destiny is already in your hands.”
A calm and soft voice transmission landed in Ning Cheng’s ears, and Ning Cheng was like an enlightened man who instantly came to his senses. Yes, he was suffering from this because he had the Xuanhuang Pearl. Didn’t those who didn’t have the Xuanhuang Pearl do whatever they wanted to do? One day, he would be able to control his destiny.
Ning Cheng’s mind settled down and only then did he remember the person who had just helped him with his dao heart, and he subconsciously looked back. Immediately afterwards, he saw Nian Yan who was smiling.
Nian Yan was sitting behind him and was nodding and smiling at him.
Ning Cheng nodded gratefully to Nian Yan, he did not understand how Nian Yan had recognised him, but surprisingly he did not have much defence against Nian Yan.
After he had stopped worrying about meeting a Destiny Avatar powerhouse, Ning Cheng listened to Mu Zuo Yi’s words once again. Even though Mu Zuo Yi had not said much, in Ning Cheng’s feeling, Mu Zuo Yi was still like a vast ocean, unfathomable.
“Now the Five Realms Dan Competition officially begins, please invite all the participating dan masters to the stage, the Vice President of the Taiyi Realm Dan Association, Kong Lianbo, will ask the questions and preside over this Dan Competition.” After Mu Zuo Yi said these words, his body flickered slightly, and then he sat down in the middle of the judging table at the back of the giant altar.
Ning Cheng stood up and walked up to the giant altar together with the few people from the Tai Su Realm who were participating in the Dan Competition.
After sitting down in the area on the Giant Altar that belonged to the Tai Su Realm Dan Masters, Ning Cheng realised that there were over three hundred people participating in the first round of the Five Realms Dan Competition. Out of over three hundred people, the Tai Su Realm only got six spots, one of which he had won through a dan competition with Lu Dong Ce.
In fact, on the giant altar, the Tai Su Realm region only had five people sitting there, which was pitiful even compared to the Taiji Realm.
The crowd was used to it, every time the Dan Competition Tai Su Realm had the smallest number of people.
After all the Dan masters were seated, Kong Lianbo walked up to the giant altar and, after inspecting the Dan master’s salute, said aloud, “The top ten finishers in this Dan competition will all be given Five Realms Dan Saint identity tokens and have the qualification to open cave houses in the Sacred Cloud Mountain ……”
Ning Cheng didn’t know the benefits of the Five Realms Dan Saint Identity Plate, nor did he know what it meant to open a cave in Saint Cloud Mountain, but other dan masters did. Possessing the Five Realms Dan Saint qualification card meant that one could walk across the Taiyi Realm. Apart from that number of powerful people, no one would dare to point their noses at you. For example, if Ning Cheng had possessed the Five Realms Dan Saint Qualification Plate before, if you gave Liu Fang Zhen ten thousand guts, he wouldn’t dare to order Ning Cheng, Give me a break.
Saint Cloud Mountain was the number one cultivation sanctuary of the Dan Association, and was likewise one of the top ten cultivation sanctuaries in the Taiyi Realm, and would not be much weaker than the cross-dao pond of the Liu Dao Pavilion. It was the dream of every Taiyi Realm cultivator to be able to open a cave in Saint Cloud Mountain.
