Chapter 2

Qingyun Sect.

The foremost among the ten major sects of Dajian Province.

Countless rays of light enveloped the sky like a rainbow, immortal cranes played in the white clouds, and the surrounding spiritual energy formed a visible river, hanging between the mountain ranges.

A gentle breeze blew, and the sound of bells echoed, presenting a scene of a fairyland.

Right at this moment.

In the Yunhua Hall, the statues representing the pinnacle of various skills suddenly emitted a bright light, trembling continuously, as if performing a kind of worship, or filled with excitement and agitation.

The rumbling sound reverberated through heaven and earth.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

Powerful cultivators flew out of their rooms, hovering in the air, staring at the boiling clouds in the sky, too shocked to speak.

"Heavenly auspicious clouds, a sage has descended..."

An elder's eyes widened, muttering to himself.

Mo Qingcheng, the sect leader, was one of the peak powerhouses in Dajian Province.

"Only when one's cultivation or a particular skill reaches an unparalleled level and merges with the Dao can one be called a 'sage.' Such a situation hasn't appeared on the Qianyuan Continent for ten thousand years."

"The light seems to be above us. Could a sage have appeared in Dajian Province?"

Among the nine provinces and ten regions, Dajian Province ranks last and is the poorest. Even if a sage were to appear on the Qianyuan Continent, it would definitely be in places like Dagan Province or Dayuan Province, not here.

Buzz!

Amidst the discussions, the colorful clouds in the sky suddenly changed. The character "sage" transformed into 36 rays of light, illuminating the heavens and earth, dyeing the surroundings in a myriad of colors.

The heavens seemed to be torn apart by the dazzling light, and countless primordial energies gathered together, surging like tidal waves.

Everyone was stunned.

When a sage descends, there is only one ray of light. It's impossible for 36 sages to appear simultaneously, right?

If that were the case, the entire Qianyuan Continent would have been in an uproar, not without any news.

"Now that the Bi Luo Sea is in turmoil, Elder Bai just sent a message. It seems that a seal has been broken, and a super demon has escaped. Could it be that the immortal artifact or sacred medicine left to suppress the demon has appeared?"

An elder couldn't help but say.

"Very likely..."

Mo Qingcheng nodded.

He had also heard about this matter and still found it strange, but it seemed to be the best explanation for now.

...

"Heavenly auspicious clouds, a sage has descended. If this sage were in our sect, how wonderful it would be..."

In the main hall of Zhenxian Sect, many elders had not yet left. Elder Wu Yuan looked at the sky, his face full of bitter smiles.

If their sect produced a sage, all problems would be solved, and they wouldn't have to worry so much.

"Do you think... it could be Little Uncle?"

Elder Yuan Bu Yi said.

"You really dare to think!"

Shaking his head, Elder Wu Yuan said, "To be called a sage, one's cultivation must at least reach the Immortal Realm, and one must have an extraordinary understanding of a particular profession or skill. Little Uncle is only eighteen years old. Even if he started learning from birth, how far could he have reached?"

"It was a wild thought!"

Elder Yuan smiled bitterly.

Just as they went to invite Little Uncle out of seclusion, such auspicious clouds appeared, leading to wild speculations. Upon careful consideration, they realized how absurd it was, almost impossible!

Even with a congenital Dao body and immortal bloodline, he has only cultivated for ten years. How could he become a sage?

Buzz!

As they conversed, the colorful clouds and light in the sky suddenly changed. In the blink of an eye, thunderclouds gathered, and countless raindrops fell from the sky.

Relieved, Elder Wu Yuan said, "When a sage descends, the auspicious clouds will shine for a day. It's only been a short while, and they've already turned into dark clouds. Perhaps it's a special treasure appearing!"

...

Such a scene was happening simultaneously in countless sects. To be honest, not only did many powerful figures disbelieve the appearance of a sage, but even Su Yin didn't believe it.

At this moment, he looked at the colorful clouds in the sky, unable to resist praising them.

"Truly worthy of being the clouds of a cultivation world. They look completely different from those on Earth, more beautiful and grand..."

The forbidden area was always overcast, and he hadn't seen the sun for ten years, let alone such a grand spectacle.

"Uncle Ancestor!"

Chen Yu and Zhao Ruoxu approached, looking at the young man before them with curiosity.

Congenital Dao body... the most powerful cultivation physique in legends. After ten years of hard cultivation, what level of strength could he have reached?

"How come he doesn't seem to have any cultivation, just like an ordinary person?" After a while, Chen Yu couldn't help but transmit his voice.

"His steps are unsteady, and he leaves himself wide open when walking, with no defense..."

Zhao Ruoxu was equally puzzled.

Even with the most ordinary physique, after ten years of cultivation, one should at least reach the seventh or eighth level of Qi Gathering!

This Uncle Ancestor... who has been cultivating in the most mysterious forbidden area, how could he have no strength at all?

Could he be hiding his strength, not wanting others to know?

Yes!

It must be that!

Worthy of being the highest-ranking person in the sect, humble and low-key.

As they were marveling, the young elder, who was younger than them, smiled and looked over: "I've been in the forbidden area since I was young and rarely go out. Could it be that the clouds outside have always been this beautiful?"

"Reporting to Uncle Ancestor, at this time, it usually rains a little. This kind of light and clouds, we've never seen before..."

Chen Yu quickly bowed.

Su Yin nodded: "That makes sense. The weather is quite dry. This colorful cloud might just be a rain cloud, and it will pour down at any moment!"

"Rain cloud?" Chen Yu shook his head. "Impossible..."

Though he didn't know why so many colorful clouds suddenly appeared, it must be related to some treasure. Rain... was almost impossible!

Just as he was about to explain, a thunderclap sounded overhead. The seven-color light slowly dissipated, and a torrential downpour immediately began.

"How about that, it's a rain cloud, right!" Su Yin laughed.

He didn't expect the sky in this world to be so responsive, hitting the mark with just a casual remark.

"..."

Chen Yu and Zhao Ruoxu were stunned, their eyes wide open.

Saying it was a rain cloud, and it started raining. Was this... word becoming reality?

Not to mention an eighteen-year-old who has only cultivated for ten years, even the powerful sect leaders in Dagan Province, who have reached the Immortal Realm, couldn't do this. Only those legendary sages might have such power!

Is Uncle Ancestor a sage?

The two shook their heads simultaneously.

Ten thousand years ago, an incident occurred, and the path to ascension disappeared. The continent not only lacked sages but also immortals, let alone this Uncle Ancestor who is younger than them.

Not thinking about it, Chen Yu waved his hand, and a primordial energy barrier appeared overhead, blocking the falling raindrops. Just as he was about to invite Uncle Ancestor to proceed, his body trembled, and his face turned pale.

"Brother..."

Stunned, Zhao Ruoxu looked up and immediately saw the 36 rays of light and spiritual energy merging with the rain, falling down.

This was the power of the heavens, containing the Dao of a sage. For a sage, it was a reward, but for ordinary people, it was a punishment. Even though it was diluted by the rain, it was still beyond their ability to resist!

Boom!

In less than two breaths, the air barrier couldn't withstand the pressure and exploded. The falling raindrops, like arrows, struck their bodies, quickly breaking through their protective true essence. Under the immense pressure and impact, their dantians trembled violently.

"If this continues, we will die..."

Chen Yu and Zhao Ruoxu's faces turned white. They couldn't resist any longer and sat down, their internal primordial energy roaring, and white smoke rising from their heads.

This was a sign that their true essence had reached its limit.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!

The water was like sulfuric acid, eroding their strength. In just a minute, their internal energy fluctuated violently, and blood trickled from their mouths.

What's going on?

Is the power of the heavens mixed with the rain limited to a small area or the entire Dajian Province?

If it's a small area, and it just happened to be above their heads... that's too unlucky!

"Right, Uncle Ancestor..."

Full of tension, the two looked up and saw an unbelievable scene.

They saw their worried Uncle Ancestor standing quietly in the rain, arms spread, eyes closed, not only without any pressure but also enjoying it.

The torrential rain, containing the power of the heavens, fell on him, and the powerful force stirred up a layer of white mist on his skin. This mist, even a trace of which they couldn't withstand, he not only absorbed it all but also seemed to enjoy it...

Is this... an ordinary person?

I'd rather believe in ghosts!

Clearly, he's a master, a master they can't see through!

Unlike their suffering, Su Yin hadn't seen rain for ten years. Excited, he spread his arms and enjoyed it.

Warm and cozy, similar to soaking in a hot spring.

"Comfortable!"

A murmur.

Truly worthy of a world where cultivation is possible. Even the rain is different from Earth's.

Enjoying it for a while, he felt the rain gradually lessen and opened his eyes, his gaze falling on Chen Yu and Zhao Ruoxu.

"Even in the rain, they are still working hard, even to the point of their bodies heating up and smoke rising from their heads..."

His eyes showed admiration and respect.

Not wasting any time, always practicing wherever and whenever... this might be the reason for their strength!

Thinking of himself, who hasn't even seen a cultivation technique and has no cultivation at all, he felt a deep sense of inferiority.

"In the same rain, I just want to soak in a hot spring, while they don't forget to practice. I mustn't tell anyone, or it would be too embarrassing!"

Su Yin felt ashamed.

Let's work hard!

I need to strive to make my head smoke the next time it rains...

Yes, a lot of smoke!
