Chapter 1219 - Chapter 1219 Chapter 1219 The Battle of the Immortal Rankings

Chapter 1219: Chapter 1219: The Battle of the Immortal Rankings! Chapter 1219: Chapter 1219: The Battle of the Immortal Rankings! The three sat around the campfire, engaging in a nocturnal conversation by candlelight.

The sisters Mei Lun and Mei Huan indeed treated Huang Xiaolong with utmost candor.

They bore their true selves to him.

It turned out that three years ago, they had consumed apples planted in their own yard. Of course, these were mutated apples glowing with an immortal radiance – striking to behold and even more refreshing to smell, almost spiritually uplifting.

There were exactly two mutated apples, and each sister ate one. After consumption, they immediately gained a supernatural power – the ability to manifest a pair of resplendent, crystalline light wings capable of traveling thousands of miles in a single day.

Since then, they had bid farewell to the life of ordinary people and become the chosen ones.

Afterward, they had successively gained some connections with the immortal realms and mastered some spells, but they weren’t particularly strong of that sort.

“Lei Gong, nowadays on Earth, many places have erected great and sacred altars. These altars can connect to the immortal realms, bringing down various fortunes, including immortal artifacts, Immortal Pills, and inheritances of Immortal Techniques…” Xu Meilun smiled as she spoke.

“Eh? Altars?” Huang Xiaolong was only aware of the altars left on Earth by the Long Clan and the one built by the Demon King Taotie that could connect to the demon realms.

But what’s the deal with these altars that connect to the immortal realms?

Who’s causing this trouble?

“Take our Huaxia for example – the Five Peaks, Mount Huang, Taihang Mountains, Jiuzhaigou, the Great Wall, Qingcheng Mountains… all have immortal realm altars. The top chosen ones claim the mountains as their own, forming powerful factions. It’s an era of heroes carving out their own territories,” Xu Meilun continued narrating. “As for abroad, places like the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, Mount Fuji, and the Burj Al Arab… have also seen the rise of altars. This means that a large number of chosen ones have also been born overseas.”

Xu Meihuan added, “With Earth’s sudden changes, some places have mysteries surpassing human imagination, filled with seas of Spiritual Energy, sacred trees, and Spiritual Roots, as well as endless exotic flowers and herbs. Moreover, besides humans undergoing mutations, other species have also evolved. For example, like the Husky you saw earlier. Just as humans have given birth to supreme beings, animals and beasts have also evolved into ferocious monsters. Recently, in the island nation of Dongying, a vast Godzilla appeared – over a hundred meters tall, a single stomp resulted in the deaths of tens of thousands, and its breath of mysterious light fire slaughtered a whole city. Eventually, it was slain by a chosen one from Dongying.”

“Godzilla?” Huang Xiaolong almost laughed aloud.

“Hehe~~ Lei Gong, Godzilla is what they call it online, but as for what that creature actually evolved from, who knows,” Xu Meilun giggled tenderly. “The chosen ones over in Dongying are also formidably horrific, with the leader rumored to be named ‘Xu Fu’, sharing the name with a magician from our Huaxia’s Qin Dynasty. In Dongying, he wields immense authority, worshipped by millions, offered prayers and incense, and revered as a god. His influence even extends to Southeast Asia.”

“Xu Fu?” Upon hearing this, a slight tremor ran through Huang Xiaolong, and a few threads of coldness crept into his eyes.

Others might not know, but Huang Xiaolong was crystal clear that the Xu Fu of Dongying was actually the same magician Xu Fu of Ying Zheng’s time, who had obtained the Immortal Pill of immortality, fled overseas, and established the Dongying Underworld!

In Xu Fu’s possession was a black dagger capable of unlocking the caves of Immortals!

Unexpectedly, in this chaotic world, Xu Fu had also obtained an enormous fortune and become a supreme being who could cover the heavens with one hand!

Xu Meilun, perceiving changes in expressions, asked curiously, “Lei Gong, have you also heard about Xu Fu’s various invincible deeds?”

“Eh~~ not clear on that, but I guess he must be an extremely strong chosen one,” Huang Xiaolong concealed his emotions, smiling as he inquired, “So, what about our Huaxia? The mighty Huaxia has given birth to chosen ones, and they surely shouldn’t lose to Xu Fu from Dongying, right? What major powers formed by chosen ones does Huaxia have?”

Xu Meihuan replied, “Huaxia certainly doesn’t lose out to any country! In Huaxia, there are three great powers in total!”

“Three great powers?” Huang Xiaolong perked up his ears in curiosity.

“At the forefront is the power self-proclaimed as the ‘Overseas Cultivators’ World’! Their leaders are five divine-like beings who can command the wind and rain, move mountains and fill seas, omnipotent as Earth Immortals at the peak of the pyramid. They have countless incredibly powerful chosen ones under their command – quite terrifying,” Xu Meihuan explained. “The Overseas Cultivators’ World controls many spiritual mountains, and a large number of chosen ones seek refuge with them, unmatched in their prominence.”

Taking over the conversation, Xu Meilun said, “It is said that the five leaders of the Overseas Cultivators’ World also claim that their true identities are actually spokespersons chosen by the immortal realms on Earth. Whoever dares to defy them is going against heaven and offending divine authority… They will face a crusade and the extermination of ten clans!”

“The Overseas Cultivators’ World’s power is very brutal, often violently suppressing other chosen ones’ powers and claiming to be enacting heavenly justice. They are too strong, wielding numerous Immortal Artifacts, making them hard to contend with. I once watched a video online where one of the five leaders of the Overseas Cultivators’ World, a woman, stood in the air, her body’s glow even more intense than the sun, her eyes like abysses. She summoned a fan and with a gentle wave, hundreds of powerful chosen ones were turned to ash~~ The video caused a huge uproar online.”

“Eh? The Overseas Cultivators’ World? Five leaders?” Huang Xiaolong’s heart was once again shocked, murmuring softly, “Claiming to be the immortal realms’ spokespersons?”

A spark of enlightenment flashed through Huang Xiaolong’s mind.

‘Those five leaders are none other than the two Shushan elders from the past, as well as three other Earth Immortal realm giants… They were already terrifying beings standing at the pinnacle of the Earth, known as Earth Immortals. Now, three years have passed, they have become even stronger. Could it be that those altars and the great resurgence and mutation of the Earth’s Spiritual Energy have been orchestrated by those five Earth Immortals? Did they connect with the Immortal Realm? Humph! Truly helping a tyrant do evil!’

Huang Xiaolong’s expression turned somewhat grim.

However, he quickly broke into a smile. “So, that means the largest Tianxuan force in Huaxia right now is the so-called overseas practitioners’ force?”

“Not exactly,” Xu Meilun said with a smile. “There is another force that is capable of standing toe to toe with the overseas practitioners’ world, and that is–Dragon Island!”

“Pfft–Dragon Island?” Huang Xiaolong couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Wasn’t Dragon Island his own faction?

Tsk tsk, competing head-on with the overseas practitioners’ world, it seems that they have developed quite well over these years.

“Eh–Lei Gong, what are you laughing at?” Xu Meilun’s expression turned serious. “You… you better not get too carried away. Laughing in front of us is one thing, but if the people from Dragon Island knew you were laughing at them, it could lead to a disaster.”

“Alright, I got it, but how does Dragon Island’s force compare with the overseas practitioners’ world?” Huang Xiaolong asked with a smile.

“That’s hard to say. The overseas practitioners’ world acts arrogantly, almost unbridled. But Dragon Island is relatively much more low-profile. However, don’t underestimate Dragon Island; its members are numerous, each with their own fortunes and adventures. The top tier consists of a group of women, each of stunning beauty, but with heaven-reaching means. Among them, there are two women who are terrifyingly powerful!”

At this point, the sisters Mei Lun and Mei Huan were somewhat apprehensive.

“Hmm? Go on,” Huang Xiaolong said with relish.

“That… that woman… once got into a dispute with the overseas practitioners over a sacred tree atop Mount Everest. The overseas practitioners gathered over ten thousand Tianxuaners, completely surrounding the few hundred people from Dragon Island.” Xu Meihuan swallowed, her voice trembling. “As a result, a woman in white from Dragon Island turned into a hundred-zhang long white dragon! The white dragon breathed dragon fire, burning Mount Everest, its fearsome might unmatched and unparalleled, turning the over ten thousand members of the overseas practitioners’ world into ashes. That battle was too terrible, earth-shattering, and extremely bloody. The white dragon soared, bringing down a heavenly catastrophe and causing a disaster, shocking the whole world! It sparked numerous discussions among netizens worldwide–that battle made Dragon Island feared and respected as they inflicted heavy losses on the overseas practitioners’ world.”

Upon hearing this, Huang Xiaolong’s lips curved in a slight smirk, knowing full well that the so-called white dragon was none other than the Long Clan maid “Bai Chan” he had subdued.

It seemed that with Bai Chan and the Seventh Princess standing guard, even the vast numbers of practitioners and Tianxuaners of the overseas practitioners’ world could not suppress Dragon Island.

“But what’s strange is that Dragon Island never recruits any Tianxuaners from outside. Nor do they take the initiative to attack and engage in major battles with the overseas practitioners’ world. The few battles that have happened were in retaliation to the provocations from the overseas practitioners’ world,” Xu Meilun said, full of curiosity. “That’s right, Dragon Island’s people are proficient in a Divine Skill for taming demon beasts. Many savage and fierce demon beasts have actually submitted to Dragon Island. There are many videos online showing Dragon Island’s people riding demon beasts as mounts; it’s so imposing and cool!”

Hearing this, Huang Xiaolong nodded slightly.

Very good, everything was as he had planned back then.

“Many people online are discussing that Dragon Island is not without ambition; it seems as though they are leaderless. It appears they are waiting for someone–” Xu Meihuan pondered. “Waiting for their leader? In summary, there is a prophecy that Dragon Island and the overseas practitioners’ world are bound to have a huge battle.”

“Besides Dragon Island and the overseas practitioners’ world, the rest are just smaller forces. These small forces united form the third major power in Huaxia. The existence of these small forces plays a buffer role between the two major powers of the overseas practitioners’ world and Dragon Island. For example, we sisters belong to the ‘Wind Chasing Association’–” Xu Meihuan said with a sweet smile. “This is a local force with hundreds of Tianxuaners.”

Suddenly, Xu Meilun said, “Lei Gong, there’s a big event that’s been hotly debated online recently, you wouldn’t know about it, would you?”

“Of course I wouldn’t,” Huang Xiaolong said, shaking his head decisively. “What big event?”

“Well, the five leaders of the overseas practitioners’ world have issued an announcement,” Xu Meilun said gravely. “On a certain upcoming day, a small world will descend from the Immortal Realm. In this small world, an Immortal Fate will appear that has never before been seen on Earth! It is a supreme Immortal Fate, and acquiring it means almost certain ascension! Tianxuaners from any country on Earth can enter this small world to explore for the Immortal Fate!”

“This is called the ‘Immortal List Battle.’ Tianxuaners will enter the small world to slaughter each other and earn points. An Immortal List will descend into the small world, and in the end, the Tianxuaners ranked at the top of the Immortal List will receive generous rewards from the Immortal Realm, including an outpouring of various energies!” Xu Meihuan narrated.

“Lei Gong, this is the biggest event recently. The authenticity is uncertain, but the announcement made by the five leaders of the overseas practitioners’ world has very high credibility. It could also be a conspiracy to eliminate dissidents,” Xu Meilun said with a serious expression. “Better to believe it and be prepared; all the powerful forces are sharpening their swords, ready for battle. In these chaotic times, no one will miss a chance to defy the heavens, change their fate, and grow stronger!”

“At that time, it’s possible that forces like Xu Fu and other foreign Tianxuaner powers, as well as Dragon Island, will send strong fighters to participate in the Immortal List Battle!”
