Chapter 1256: Chapter 14 The Competition of the Saint Becomes Increasingly Inward-Looking_2 Chapter 1256: Chapter 14 The Competition of the Saint Becomes Increasingly Inward-Looking_2 Both the tiger and the butterfly had clearly masked their presence, moving with nimble grace, almost soundlessly.

Thanks to the lush vegetation and the rich, flowing spiritual energy in the Green Emperor Valley, the tiger and the butterfly swept through rapidly, managing not to disturb the Spirit Plant Master who was busy bending over in the medicinal field.

During a leap, the fairly large tiger cub suddenly spoke in a melodiously naive female voice, “Senior Brother Zhen, why don’t we make an official and honorable visit?”

Upon hearing this voice, the Fire Spirit Butterfly showed no reaction, but the flames on its wings suddenly flared up, revealing a faint human silhouette within them.

At the same time, a clear male voice emanated from the flames, “Junior Sister Nianyun, you don’t understand, do you? Most cultivators in this world show their faces masked to the public and only reveal their true selves in private. If we were to visit formally, we would only see a facade. To truly understand her real situation, we need to observe secretly.”

“Wang Licui is, after all, a direct disciple of the Enlightened One Yunyang. When I eventually become the Master of the Sacred Land, she will be my subordinate. It’s only prudent for me to assess her in advance to prepare for the future.”

His voice was filled with confidence, as if the position of the Saint was already within his grasp.

This tiger and butterfly, naturally, were not really a tiger and a butterfly.

The white-furred, fairly large tiger cub was, in fact, Yuyen Nianyun from the Heavenly Demon Lineage of the Lingyun Sacred Land, transformed.

The Cultivation Technique of the Heavenly Demon Lineage is quite special; once fully developed, the Dharma Shadow can blend with the body, utilizing the power of the bloodline to transform the physical body into a monstrous form, greatly enhancing combat abilities.

Yuyen Nianyun, as a Great Sky Pride of the Heavenly Demon Lineage bearing the White Tiger Bloodline and already at the Purple Abode Realm, temporarily transforming into the form of a White Tiger was no difficult feat for her.

As for that male voice, it belonged to Zhen Shicong, a Great Sky Pride of the Li Huo Line from the Lingyun Sacred Land.

The Fire Spirit Butterfly was his spirit pet, and he himself, using his Divine Power, was concealed within the flames of the Fire Spirit Butterfly.

This technique was highly covert; if he intended to hide, even cultivators of the same Purple Abode Realm level would have a hard time detecting him.

“But I heard that Wang Licui’s talent ranks as a Second Rate Supremacy, which seems to be even higher than yours, Senior Brother. Plus, both Gong Yang Ce and Wang Liyao are of Second Rate Supremacy talent,” Yuyen Nianyun flicked her ears, casting a sideways glance at Zhen Shicong overhead, “Are you so sure that you can secure the position of Saint?”

“Senior Brother has already had people gather information. The battle for the title of Saint tests overall qualities. Innate talent is important, but not the only thing that matters. Commanding ability, personal opportunities, and more are just as crucial.”

Zhen Shicong, clearly prepared, confidently continued, “People like Gong Yang Ce and Wang Liyao, though they may have higher talents than me, are too rigid in their actions and completely lack flexibility. In a real comparison, they stand no chance against me. It’s only this Wang Licui who suddenly emerged that we don’t yet understand. Once we learn of her details today, I’ll have a clear picture.”

After speaking, he added confidently, “Don’t worry, Junior Sister Nianyun. Once I become the Master of the Sacred Land, you will be my top general. I’ll take you to enjoy all the finest things.”

“…”

Yuyen Nianyun glanced at him, seemingly wanting to say something, but ultimately held back.

At that moment, the tiger and the butterfly finally arrived at the outskirts of the Evergreen Garden.

Yuyen Nianyun leapt, her sturdy tiger paws kicking against the tree trunk a few times, effortlessly reaching the top of a towering tree outside the garden, her movements as fluid as drifting clouds, arousing not even a ripple of Mysterious Energy.

The Fire Spirit Butterfly followed closely.

The tiger and the butterfly hid among the treetop branches, looking down into the Evergreen Garden below.

What was happening here?

It seemed like a group of people, along with a tree and a snake, was practicing for a quiz?

Zhen Shicong immediately felt that he had come to the right place. They must have obtained insider information about one of the questions in the Saint contest and were doing a mock drill.

Zhen Shicong started observing intently, trying to decipher what was written on the papers below.

…

Meanwhile, at the same time.

Wang Shouzhe, a guest in the Evergreen Garden, had received an invitation and had gone to the central cluster of buildings in the Green Emperor Valley.

The Green Emperor Valley’s lineage was generally thriving, with a sizeable permanent population due to its responsibility for hundreds of miles of Spirit Plants, Spiritual Medicine, and even the planting of Spirit Plants unique to various veins; the task was more than a few people could manage.

It was akin to a magnified version of the Academy Changchun Valley in Longzuo.

The total population exceeded seven hundred.

Do not underestimate these seven hundred people. Anyone qualified to enter the Lingyun Sacred Land was at least a Little Sky Pride with decent potential. Among them, some were special recruits from outside Prominent Families, many were talents sent from various academies below, and some were Sky Prides trained by the Sacred Land itself.

As the saying goes, once you enter the Sacred Land, you’re set to become a Celestial Being.

Among the Little Sky Prides, as long as one met the standards, they would at least reach the slightly advanced Middle Grade Class C, and with the abundant spiritual atmosphere of the Sacred Land as well as generous resource allowances, a multitude of suitable Cultivation Techniques, guidance from predecessors, and so on…

Generally speaking, achieving the Heavenly Human Realm was not an issue.

By then, they would be capable of becoming a minor Principal, leading a group of young disciples in their tasks.
