Simultaneously traverse through the heavens, using the equipment slots to conquer all realms.

Chapter 72 Head-to-Head

The other outstanding individuals also realized what was going on.

Yup!

A place where powerful beings can traverse the starry sky can be considered an ordinary source of life? They felt that He Lang's earlier claim that there weren't many cultivators in his hometown was probably false!

"Such outstanding individuals achieved enlightenment in who knows when. Time is merciless; too many changes can occur in a thousand years. Moreover, there is the suppression of the Azure Emperor's Dao Mark. You are also aware of the situation in the Big Dipper."

"Brother He's words have made Yifei even more curious about your hometown. Ye Fan, the Ancient Sacred Body who has been causing a lot of trouble in the Northern Region recently, seems to be from the same place as you, Brother He. Your place is truly a land of outstanding people and beautiful scenery."

Jiang Yifei of the Jiang family in the Northern Region also spoke up, mentioning Ye Fan's name.

Ye Fan obtained the Origin Book from He Lang and received some guidance from him. After He Lang left Zhuofeng, Ye Fan also went to the Northern Region to dig for Origin. Now he is quite famous in the Eastern Wilderness, mainly because he exposed the Origin Root of All Things, which was refined into the Origin Cauldron of All Things, attracting many people to hunt him down.

He Lang didn't interfere much in this matter. Ye Fan's path was destined to be filled with hardships. This is what arduous cultivation is all about. Without experiencing life-and-death battles, one's foundation will be very weak.

Unlike his seemingly magical abilities, he built his success step by step with a solid foundation!

A glint appeared in Jiang Yifei's eyes, making it impossible to discern what he was thinking.

"That's right, Ye Fan is my friend. Speaking of which, I also want to tell you that I've heard some of you are hunting down Ye Fan, trying to seize the Myriad Things Mother Qi Cauldron. Ye Fan is my friend, and I hope everyone can value harmony!"

He Lang glanced at the outstanding individuals among the Daoist practitioners, causing many to feel immense pressure.

"As for my hometown, I really don't know much about it. That's all I know. You don't need to have any other ideas. The people who came with me are the same as me and don't know much either. We probably know more about it than you do."

After He Lang finished speaking, he didn't say anything more about the topic of Earth.

You don't even have the level of a saint, what use are you!

The starry sky is boundless; even saints would get lost without star field coordinates. You guys from the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm don't need to covet other ancient stars.

Upon hearing this, the group of outstanding talents showed various expressions, but no one jumped out to say anything. From He Lang's tone, they knew that he was protecting Ye Fan and telling them to behave themselves.

As for He Lang's hometown, although they were still full of curiosity, the person involved was unwilling to say more, and the others did not press him.

"The ultimate embryo formed from the source of all things' primordial energy—no one can resist such temptation. Your words are far too domineering."

Wang Teng spoke calmly and indifferently.

"Some treasures cannot be mastered by others. If that's what you mean, Brother Wang, then I'm quite curious about the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Scripture. I wonder if I'll have the honor of witnessing the supreme inheritance of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor."

He Lang glanced at Wang Teng with a faint smile on his face, but his words caused an uproar among the group of outstanding people in the Daoist community.

Witnessing the legacy of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor—isn't this just a prelude to seizing Wang Teng's legacy?

"You're welcome to give it a try."

Wang Teng's aura surged forth, crushing the void. A void rift appeared, connecting to the eternal unknown. He was like an ancient emperor reincarnated, his entire body radiating divine light, suppressing eternity. The scene of stars fading and disappearing appeared in his eyes.

"Let's give it a try. You've obtained the legacy of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor. I don't mind recreating the old story of the Seven Heroes of Chaos and the Chaotic Ancient Emperor, giving you a crushing defeat, and helping you walk the same path as the Chaotic Ancient Emperor."

He Lang's aura also changed, and the world around him became dim and uncertain. Wisps of chaotic energy emerged from the void, making him appear hazy.

The aura of the Great Dao emanating from him made Qi Lin lose his composure, his expression turned serious, his blood surged, and strange phenomena enveloped his body.

"Why are you two in such a hurry? The three of us will eventually have a battle to decide who is the number one person in the world. There is no need to rush."

Qi Lin tried to dissuade them, fearing that the two would start fighting at any moment, but the Southern Demon acted like a gentleman.

Apart from him, the other outstanding individuals all fell silent, watching the drama unfold from the sidelines, while also expressing their immense admiration for He Lang.

He actually said he wanted to reenact the chaos of the Seven Heroes and the ancient chaos. His arrogance and self-importance were admirable, even to his competitors.

"I don't care. You two will be my defeated opponents sooner or later anyway. It doesn't matter if it's sooner or later."

He Lang suppressed his aura and calmed all the strange phenomena, which relieved many people in the Daoist community.

Qi Lin:

Upon hearing He Lang's words, he even considered starting a war immediately!

You really think you're the number one person in the Five Domains?

Wang Teng's eyes were sharp and cold as knives. He stared at He Lang for a few moments, snorted coldly, and also suppressed his aura.

"After the war, I will take your life."

"Very good! Keep your Dao heart in mind. If you are not seen on the path to becoming an emperor in the future, it will be a great loss."

""

The many outstanding individuals present: "————"

The group was speechless in response to the conversation between Wang Teng and He Lang.

You said Wang Teng was too confident? You're not much better!

"Brother He, I heard that you once entered that immortal palace in the desolate ancient forbidden land, where you obtained an extraordinary opportunity, which allowed you to rise so quickly. Is that true or not?"

Qi Lin changed the subject, asking a question that many people in the Five Domains had been speculating about: the news that He Lang and the others had seen the Immortal Palace in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land was not a secret.

"It's all fake. I achieved what I have today through my own efforts. The talk of a predestined connection with immortals is just a rumor. However, I am indeed quite interested in that immortal palace. It is said that there are Nine-Turn Immortal Pills inside."

"If you're interested, you can borrow the sacred weapons of each sect, and we can venture into the desolate ancient forbidden land together. Perhaps we can open a path to the Celestial Palace. Based on my speculation, the reason we can't approach the Celestial Palace is definitely because of the Dao patterns laid down by an unparalleled powerhouse."

"Brother Haoyue, Brother Jiang, Brother Xia, Holy Maiden, you can lend me your imperial weapons, and I'll take you on a adventure!"

He Lang looked at the geniuses present and put forward a bold idea.

"Brother Dao is joking."

The Holy Maiden of Yaochi's voice was like heavenly music as she politely declined He Lang's suggestion.

The last Tianxuan Holy Land to attack the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land is now overgrown with weeds!

Many people believe He Lang's statement, since any opportunity needs time to be processed, and He Lang's performance shows no limits. It won't be long before people can sense his growing strength.

One can only say that his talent is extraordinary and his innate wisdom is exceptional.

With Qi Lin speaking up, the other prodigies present also chimed in, and the conversation became quite lively.

That's how the Gathering of Prodigies is: everyone chats together, shares secrets, and exchanges insights on cultivation.

The crowd's attention didn't stay on He Lang for long; it quickly shifted to the affairs of the Five Domains, and the conversation eventually turned to various special physiques.

"The ruthless lineage has risen again. Those with special physiques are their prey. I was attacked once, and later my family consulted a fortune teller who found some clues."

The Feathered King of Zhongzhou spoke with an extremely solemn expression, revealing a secret that caused many prodigies to change their expressions.

Everyone present had been attacked, so they took this news quite seriously. After exchanging ideas, they discovered that they had all been attacked and killed by the inheritors of the Ruthless Lineage!

"Does the Ruthless lineage really want to recreate the glory of more than 200,000 years ago? That's just wishful thinking."

"I once fought against a successor of the Ruthless lineage, and afterwards I deduced the secret technique he used. It was a deadly technique of the three great assassin dynasties, and it is possible that it is hidden in either Hell or the human world."

"I have also fought against him; he used the unparalleled divine skill of the Ruthless Great Emperor —"

After exchanging information, the group of victims realized that there seemed to be more than one werewolf inheritor. This discovery greatly surprised many prodigies with special physiques, and they relayed the news back to their respective factions.

What the group of people didn't know was that the successor of the Ruthless Great Emperor was right among them!
