Chapter 578: Fortune Breeds Envy



Chapter 578: Fortune Breeds Envy

Tens of thousands of immortals, young and old, trembled as they watched the seven massive rings of thunder standing tall in the sky, their hearts feeling as though they were being stretched to their limits!

They could scarcely believe what they were seeing!

In the center of the Sword Suppression Gate, a young man in white was now engulfed by the rampant thunder serpents, leaving only a streak of blue sword light flashing within the gate.

"Seven rings, that\'s on the level of a Celestial Emperor..."

Many spoke in hoarse voices, rendered almost speechless. As the thought crossed their minds, most shook their heads instinctively, unable to accept it. Such talent should not emerge in a moment like this!

And this sensational youth, just 15 minutes earlier, had been the butt of scornful jokes!

Were young prodigies like them supposed to kneel and fawn over someone they considered no better than a mole just moments ago?

The twisted expression on Bai Zijun\'s face showed how uncomfortable his ilk felt at this moment.

"Father!" Bai Zijun turned to the middle-aged man with white hair beside him, his teeth clenched. "Is this even possible? The son of the Nine Thunders Sovereign could only summon five rings!"

The Nine Heavens Responding Origin Thunder Voice Universalizing Sovereign was one of the Eight Sovereigns of the Celestial Court, a Rank 1 Heavenly Officer!

Bai Duo frowned deeply, shaking his head. "True or not, people will talk. This boy has managed to extend his own life."

"Father, that\'s not certain," Bai Ling\'er said, her expression cool. "In the Great Dao Celestial Realm, without a strong background, relying on talent alone invites endless variables. Many geniuses in history have fallen, typically those of this sort."

"Indeed, there are many who envy." As Bai Zijun spoke, he didn\'t realize that his eyes were a deep, blood red. Almost purplish red.

Their words were cold, but the impact of the seven rings was the most difficult thing for them to accept in their lives; the more jealous Bai Zijun felt, the more it showed how upset he was, how hot his face burned.

He looked behind him. Those who had attended the Azure Sky Banquet with him, all young scions of various prestigious immortal families, silently watched the azure sword light, their faces twitching, most of them grim.

Just as Yun Xiao had anticipated, displaying one\'s talent in the Celestial Court hardly brought admiration; instead, it stirred murderous intent!

In human nature, the most fundamental evil sprang from jealousy.

Among these tens of thousands, truly admiring souls were few; the vast majority, watching the night sky lit by the glowing rings of electric snakes, had their glowing eyes filled with the darkest of human thoughts.

Of course, had Yun Xiao been the progeny of some grand figure, he might well have had 10,000 people kneeling before him by now.

"At the level of a Celestial Emperor…"

People repeated the phrase, shaking their heads as dark thoughts took root.

"Does this boy possess some special fate?"

"Can he be killed and his power seized?"

"Can his Sword Bone be extracted?"

"How many are now setting their sights on him?"

The onlookers surveyed their surroundings quietly.

The greed that sprouted in the hearts of these tens of thousands had gathered into a dark cloud over the Grand Firmament Academy.

At this moment, everyone was Jiang Taiping.

Yet not everyone acted with the caution of Jiang Taiping.

"This boy might think he\'s about to shake the Celestial Court, to ascend in a single leap. But he doesn’t realize the greater calamity waiting for him," Bai Duo said, squinting meaningfully.

"Indeed." Lightning Lord Bo Hong had just arrived. He looked at Bai Duo and said with a chilling smile. "The Great Dao Celestial Realm won\'t tolerate the rise of a second Chaos Sovereign."

"Cao Sheng has really stepped into a minefield this time. The more he tries to store up, the bigger the blast when it\'s unleashed. It’ll blow off at least two of his legs." Bai Duo laughed.

"Don’t just talk about Cao Sheng. With the emergence of the seven rings, even the Supreme General can\'t handle it," Bo Hong sneered.

"The Supreme General is steady enough; he\'s got no ties to this kid, ready to kick him away at any moment," Bai Duo paused and scoffed. "Perhaps the one most envious of this kid\'s talent is the Supreme General himself."

"What do you mean?" Bo Hong, the Lightning Lord, was taken aback.

"He\'s old, isn’t he? Doesn\'t he want to turn back the years, to return to his youth?" Bai Duo said.

"That explains it. I wondered why an old eagle would be interested in a mere mole—it’s his longing for youth," Bo Hong scoffed.

"With such a shell, such talent, he\'s surely the best candidate for revival. Even Cao Shuo is desperate to devour this beautiful young man; how could the Supreme General not be tempted?" Bai Duo said.

"I heard the Supreme General might have some designs on Cao Shuo?" Bo Hong suddenly said.

The two exchanged glances, both smiling knowingly.

"What a coincidence. Quite the coincidence."

The two smiled wryly.

"The Supreme General has a human side, after all. At his age, he still likes to play big," Bo Hong mused.

"Worthy of our study."

As the two spoke, their gazes turned towards the Sword Suppression Gate.

The Cao Shuo they mentioned stood closest under the gate, watching a white figure shine brilliantly against the sky.

Her expression was immensely complex, a mixture of emotions.

She stared for a long time, and finally, with a sigh, said, "You truly aren\'t of the common mold, even more extraordinary than I imagined. But now that you\'ve revealed your dragon\'s form, all manner of serpants, insects, ghosts, and devils will climb up to eat your flesh and drink your blood. Your stunning life, I fear, is more fragile than that of a mayfly."

Her shock was genuine, and so was her concern.

She had not expected such an explosion of power; otherwise, she would have urged Yun Xiao to hold back.

However, the formation of the Sword Prison was a critical step in a Sword Immortal\'s advancement. With the fiery pits and mountains of blades before him, how could he not advance without sinking into obscurity?

This path of immortality was fraught with thorns from the start!

Without a formidable fate, climbing to the heavens from the bottom rungs of the celestial ladder was nothing short of delusional.

Everyone clung to their own steps, drawing from the resources of heaven and earth—who would willingly let another climb over their heads?

The solidification of classes was an eternal chasm in the path of immortality!

This chasm was vividly exemplified by the tens of thousands of envious eyes.

Yet, throughout it all, Yun Xiao never cared about their stares. His focus was entirely on his Sword Aura and the Sword Suppression Gate. He was even indifferent to the seven rings.

"My Sword Aura is too resilient; even the seven rings can\'t suppress it!" Yun Xiao frowned.

What to do?

Now, the entire defensive formation of the Sword Suppression Gate concentrated its violent force upon the Heaven Burial Sword Soul, the thunderous power sufficient to obliterate Yun Xiao. It pounded the sword relentlessly, like countless hammers striking over and over again.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! The tumultuous roars continued on the sword.

Almost 10,000,000 layers of Sword Aura formed a dense sea of swords around the Sword Soul, unwavering.

At the center of the azure Sword Soul, a lotus Sword Heart gathered the Sword Intents of the Eternal Sword and the Cosmic Sword Immortal, mysterious and vast, making the Sword Suppression Gate seem insignificant in comparison.

"The Sword Intent of that Cosmic Sword Immortal, I\'ve never truly tapped into it before." Yun Xiao had almost forgotten it. Now, feeling this power again, and seeing the oppressive force from the Sword Suppression Gate, it seemed this Sword Intent was also quite formidable.

BOOM! The suppression from the Sword Suppression Gate continued relentlessly.

"The limit of this gate is the seven rings; if it can’t suppress it, am I going to fail?"

This thought somewhat disheartened Yun Xiao. He was aware that the commotion caused by the seven rings had already shaken the entire Thunder Department.

Below, the Supreme General, Cao Sheng, Gu Suwan, Jiang Taiping, and others had arrived.

Half of the Thunder Department’s 100 high officials had come in a short time!

The Grand Firmament Academy now replaced the Nine Thunders Arena, and in this night, it became the most dazzling site of the Thunder Department!

"Congratulations to the Supreme General! Congratulations to General Cao!"

A chorus of congratulations rose up from beneath the Sword Suppression Gate.
