Chapter 725 - 751 Saint Covenant
Chapter 725: Chapter 751 Saint Covenant Chapter 725: Chapter 751 Saint Covenant Atop Wansheng Heavenly City, the firmament was shrouded by rolling dark clouds, with occasional flashes of lightning ripping through, creating an oppressive atmosphere.
Above the clouds, two figures were currently locked in confrontation.
To the left was a figure made up of countless points of light converging together, with a huge azure halo atop its head, emitting light that radiated all around.
To the right was Chu Yuan’s Divine Light’s Major Account.
Chu Yuan’s Divine Light’s Major Account was also enshrouded in silvery white divine light, making it difficult for others to discern his form, but an intangible pressure was continually emanating from him.
From a distance, it seemed as though two small beings of light were facing off against each other, both indistinct in form.
“Fellow Daoist, Poor Dao’s divine sense has arrived. Why are you unwilling to give Poor Dao some face and let off my disciple of Shangqing Palace?”
...
The light being on the left—The Palace Master of Shangqing Palace—opened with these words.
His tone was exceptionally calm.
However, it carried an undertone of helplessness that anyone could detect.
“It’s not that I don’t give you face,” Chu Yuan said coldly, staring at the other, “it’s that you don’t seem to understand. Your man wanted to move against my disciple and grabbed him directly. If the roles were reversed, would you give me face?”
Chu Yuan looked on with a cold gaze, his tone devoid of any politeness.
He stood there, not showing any intention of taking action, simply speaking out.
Because he had also noticed.
This person didn’t seem to intend to fight; it appeared he was just there for a war of words.
“This… this… well then, fellow Daoist, you have a point. But, fellow Daoist, scattering Poor Dao’s divine sense like this is really quite embarrassing for me.”
The Palace Master of Shangqing Palace initially wanted to say that he would indeed have given face and not settled scores, but considering Chu Yuan’s protective nature, if he showed himself to be unfeeling, it seemed rather disgraceful.
Therefore, he could only feign a sigh and speak.
“Feeling embarrassed? Then why don’t you have a fight with me? If you win, won’t you regain your face?” Chu Yuan said in a cold voice.
“This… this, fellow Daoist, although I do not know what realm you are in, it must be the same realm as mine. We have both reached this level. Fellow Daoist, do you not respect the ‘Divine Covenant’? How can you be so eager to fight at every turn?”
The Palace Master of Shangqing Palace spoke consecutively.
He really did not want to fight with Chu Yuan.
“What is the Divine Covenant?”
Chu Yuan frowned, somewhat puzzled.
“Could it be that you are a ‘Surviving Saint’?”
The Palace Master of Shangqing Palace narrowed his eyes, as if he had come to a realization.
Upon saying that,
He scrutinized Chu Yuan carefully and, noticing that he couldn’t see through the divine light enveloping Chu Yuan, he understood.
Indeed, the person before him was a ‘Surviving Saint’!
It was just unknown how this person managed to enter the Immortal Realm.
So-called Surviving Saints were those ‘Saints’ who survived from the era before the existence of the Immortal Realm.
These surviving Saints were then known as Surviving Saints.
On the other side, Chu Yuan was unaware of what a ‘Surviving Saint’ was. He was just about to ask something.
But before he could speak,
The Palace Master of Shangqing Palace continued, giving no chance for Chu Yuan to interject.
“It seems that you do not know what the Divine Covenant is. Let Poor Dao explain it for you. The so-called Divine Covenant is an agreement established by that being in Tiantu.”
“Anyone who steps into the realm of Quasi-Saint or above is not allowed to take action at will within the Immortal Realm. In case of a conflict, it must be resolved through dialogue.”
The Palace Master of Shangqing Palace patiently explained to Chu Yuan,
Fearing that Chu Yuan, not knowing the rules, would really engage him in combat.
A ‘Surviving Saint’, whether the opponent is a Quasi-Saint or a true Saint from a higher realm, could not possibly be his match.
So if they really fought, he would undoubtedly be at a disadvantage.
“A covenant? Then what is your purpose for coming here?”
Chu Yuan was perplexed.
If not to fight, then did this person come all the way to him just for a war of words?
“Fellow Daoist, Poor Dao had no choice, you’ve tarnished Poor Dao’s face, and as the Palace Master of Shangqing Palace, I must come out, otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to justify it.”
So spoke the Palace Master of Shangqing Palace.
“Then how do you wish to regain face?”
Chu Yuan looked the Palace Master of Shangqing Palace up and down and asked indifferently.
“Well, Fellow Daoist, I see that you are also quite busy, so I won’t delay your time. Poor Dao will put on an act to solve the face-saving issue. Rest assured, Fellow Daoist, I won’t tarnish my own face, nor yours.”
The Palace Master of Shangqing Palace quickly said these words.
It seemed that this wasn’t the first time he had said them, hence why they were spoken so swiftly and adeptly.
Upon hearing this.
Chu Yuan was taken aback.
Could it really be done this way?
To perform an act without needing him to do anything—where the other party took it upon themselves?
Well, that was something.
Chu Yuan didn’t come back to his senses for a moment and was slightly dazed.
The Palace Master of Shangqing Palace thought Chu Yuan was unwilling to accept, so he quickly continued speaking.
“Fellow Daoist, consider it a favor owed to you. Is that acceptable?”
So said the Palace Master of Shangqing Palace.
This time, Chu Yuan was even more bewildered.
What was all this about?
He had tarnished the other’s face,
and now the other party owed him a favor?
Was there such a good deal?
Chu Yuan just wanted to speak, agree to the other party, and then leave.
But the other party still didn’t let Chu Yuan speak.
“If Fellow Daoist is still reluctant, then I’ll add a supreme treasure to it. Surely, that should suffice!”
The Palace Master of Shangqing Palace, gritting his teeth, tossed out a sword-shaped treasure.
As soon as the sword-shaped treasure appeared, it caused the void to tremble faintly. It flew toward Chu Yuan and burst forth with an unparalleled sword aura.
At this moment, the Palace Master of Shangqing Palace was clearly emotional.
He wanted to test Chu Yuan’s power slightly.
So, after throwing the treasure.
The Palace Master of Shangqing Palace widened his eyes, eager to see how Chu Yuan would receive his move.
In the gaze of the Palace Master of Shangqing Palace,
the treasure flew up to Chu Yuan.
Before it could touch him, it was blocked by the Divine Light casually emitted from Chu Yuan’s body.
Under the Divine Light, the treasure, as if sensing an extreme threat, obediently floated in front of Chu Yuan, not daring to make any moves, allowing Chu Yuan to handle it as he pleased.
Chu Yuan grasped the treasure firmly, examined it carefully, nodded with satisfaction, and looked up at the Palace Master of Shangqing Palace.
“Eh? Fellow Daoist, why are you bulging your eyes out like that? Your protective light has dissipated—are you not going to snap out of it?”
“This treasure of yours, I will accept. As for the act you mentioned, your own performance, I agree to it. The following matters are up to you to handle. I will take my leave now.”
“In addition, all those Da Luos, as well as the Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors, have been subdued by me. I’ll trouble you with the follow-up work…”
