Chapter 128: A True Genius

Chapter 128 – A True Genius

When Zhou Xuan climbed all the way up and at an extremely fast speed, the most shocked ones were not other people, but naturally those who were paying attention to him.

And who were the first to pay attention to Zhou Xuan?

Shi Jioyang, Luo Bingya and Chai Shiren.

The more genius Zhou Xuan became, the more complicated Shi Jioyang’s emotions became, Yang Yijie had already reconciled with himself and he was still torn.

Of course, Yang Yijie was, after all, a Supreme Elder, and the Ten Thousand Swords Sect did not need him to step in unless it was a matter of life and death.

But Shi Jioyang, as the current Sovereign of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, he had the obligation and responsibility to train the next Sovereign, and it was so hard to find a true genius…

Thinking about this, Shi Jioyang exhaled a mouthful of turbid air, especially when Zhou Xuan killed the Vast Sea Electric Whale in three days and gave that Fruit of Intent to be devoured exclusively, he suddenly figured it out.

The more talented Zhou Xuan was, the less likely the Ten Thousand Swords Sect would be able to keep the other party behind.

If they really wanted to keep Zhou Xuan, the other party would definitely harbor resentment in the future.

After thinking it through, Shi Jioyang’s emotions were no longer complicated once he thought that the heavens and the earth were wide, looking at Zhou Xuan’s ranking, that suffix of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect’s True Successor pleased him.

Unlike Shi Jioyang, Luo Bingya had no other emotions, after all, her relationship with Zhou Xuan was not ordinary.

She only paid attention to two people, Zhou Xuan and Lin Qinxue, switching between the two to look at their perspectives.

Although she had not watched Lin Qinxue grow up from a young age, she had heard of Lin Qinxue’s intelligence.

Coupled with the other party’s experience in the Violet Sun Sacred Ground, her fondness for referring to the gongfu, and reading the notes of the seniors within those gongfu, she thought that Lin Qinxue should be more suitable for this Realm of Enlightenment than Zhou Xuan.

As a result, after a few days of reading, Zhou Xuan was climbing upwards, while Lin Qinxue, although comprehending quickly compared to the others, was still stagnant at the Yifu stage, slow.

But Luo Bingya knew that it wasn’t that Lin Qinxue was slow, but that Zhou Xuan was too perverse.

The reason for the rapid progress of everyone in the previous stage was because most cultivators were stuck at a certain stage in the current world itself, and didn’t know how to go about refining and upgrading.

As that Tai Hua Heavenly cultivator had said on the first day, the common man spoke of the fruits of the word, but his next brush was speechless.

This is still not precise enough, because the fruits of the law can be spoken, the fruits of the will can only be imagined, as for the fruits of the road, that can only be realized by each person themselves.

The emergence of the enlightenment world, so that the law and intention of the road directly materialized, so that many cultivators suddenly know how to go.

So originally stuck in a certain bottleneck, because of the enlightenment realm, most of the cultivators have seen the road ahead, and walked on unhindered.

However, when a path reached the limit of what they could achieve, it began to stagnate again.

This was why most cultivators, in the beginning, progressed at a rapid pace, and the rankings of that Dao Enlightenment Ranking shifted almost every minute and second, dazzling the eyes.

This was true even for the top of the rankings.

But by now, after almost twenty days had passed, everyone’s speed had finally slowed down, and the rankings were basically difficult to change.

But at this time, there was another person’s ranking that was rapidly changing up.

This person was Zhou Xuan.

Chai Shiren had recently looked down and was shocked by the speed of Zhou Xuan’s progress.

After Zhou Xuan had used nearly three days to give the Vast Expanse Electric Whale Intent Fruit an exclusive, he could not help but be surprised, but was not shocked, and thought that the other party was merely building up a thicket, and that when the potential in the present world was exhausted, he would also have to begin to stagnate.

As a result, Zhou Xuan had directly smashed his face, telling him that just because others were stagnating, it did not mean that he would stop as well.

When Chai Shiren returned to his senses, Zhou Xuan had already squeezed his way into the top ten thousand, having already reached the stage of great fulfillment of the Fruit of Intent.

At this time, Chai Shiren woke up, he couldn’t watch any longer, he had to tell Deacon Lin about this news before he could do so.

In the days when the Tongtian Grand Election was about to begin, the entire Ziyang Holy Land was extremely depressing.

This was because basically, as long as they were disciples of the Holy Land, they had all guessed that their Ziyang Holy Land might not have a Holy Body or a Divine Body, which was a great blow to the Holy Land.

Everyone knew that the Great Election of Tong Tian was the main battlefield for Sacred Bodies and Divine Bodies.

Now that the Violet Sun Sacred Ground did not have a Sacred Body or Divine Body, what would it do when the Tong Tian Great Election ended?
One must know that after the end of the Great Election of Heaven, the next step would be the era of the true Sacred Body and Divine Body, and for the next thousand years, the Sacred Body and Divine Body would be the protagonists of the era.

How should a Holy Land without Saint Bodies and God Bodies live on its own?
This question was like a huge mountain, weighing heavily on the hearts of everyone in the Violet Sun Holy Land.

Although Chai Shiren didn’t think that Zhou Xuan would be able to stand out in the Martial Selection Stage, Zhou Xuan’s appearance in the Literary Selection Stage right now was a shot in the arm, at least making the higher echelons of the Sacred Ground a little happier.

Thinking about this, Chai Shiren went directly to Bo Cai Building and sought out Deacon Lin.

While Deacon Lin did not pay attention to Zhou Xuan, as they had another task at Bo Cai Building, and that was to pay attention to those Sacred Bodies and Divine Bodies, to see how these people’s potential was.

After the Tongtian Election was over, it was likely that the Ziyang Holy Land would have to be someone else’s junior brother for a while, and they would have to select the extremely promising Sacred Bodies and Divine Bodies, and then attach themselves to them in the past.

This was clearly a shameful thing.

However, no one questioned the Holy Lord’s decision, instead the higher-ups were very much in favor of the Holy Lord’s approach.

Since the Ziyang Sacred Ground didn’t have a Sacred Body or a Divine Body in this session of the Great Election of the Heavenly Passage, they would have to keep their tails between their legs in the future.

If not, the next period of time would be very difficult for the Violet Sun Holy Land.

Although it was a thousand times harder for a holy land to destroy another holy land, even if the holy body and divine body grew up, it would still be difficult to do so, after all, every holy land had its heritage.

Even if they were really destroyed, they would definitely have to suffer heavy losses, and they would definitely be caught by the fishermen at that time.

But the reason why the bottom is the bottom, is the moment of crisis will show exposure, others want to bully you, you can not directly bottom out, right?

So wait for others to bully over, humiliated to sign an unequal treaty, not as good as first make a choice, at least save face.

To be the next Tongtian great election to say.

Being the junior brother of another holy land for a period of time was the Holy Lord’s thought after much deliberation.

Deacon Lin was naturally unwilling as a disciple of the holy land, but there was no way around it.

When Chai Shiren came to his door, Deacon Lin was focusing on a divine body.

“What is it?” Deacon Lin couldn’t help but be curious when he saw that Chai Shiren didn’t pay attention to the Great Election of the Heavenly Passage and instead approached him.

“Lord Deacon, have you been paying attention to Zhou Xuan recently?”

“No.” Deacon Lin shook his head, Chai Shiren was not yet a member of the Bo Cai Building, so he did not inform himself that he had important matters to attend to.

However, hearing Chai Shiren’s words, he was curious, “What happened to Zhou Xuan?”

“For the last month, I have been paying attention to Zhou Xuan’s perspective.”

After Chai Shiren took a deep breath:

“I have discovered that this person, Zhou Xuan, is a supreme genius, his enlightenment is extremely astonishing.”

“When he first entered the Realm of Enlightenment, he was merely a Dharma Fruit Perfection, ranking around tens of thousands, but now that a month has passed, Zhou Xuan is already an Intentional Fruit Majority, on the verge of Perfection.”

“If it was merely like that, it would be just that. But on the contrary, Zhou Xuan can have an Intent Fruit all to himself in a minimum of two days, and the longest time to devour an Intent Fruit is only seven days.”

“Now that almost everyone in the Enlightenment Realm has begun to stagnate due to the exhaustion of their potential in the current world, only Zhou Xuan is still steadily improving, and it seems as if there is no end to his progress.”

“Such enlightenment is too astonishing, and I felt that it was divine, so I came to report it to you, Lord Deacon.”

Lin Lujiang was also stunned after hearing this.

“You wait.” Lin Lujiang utilized his identity jade card to summon someone from outside, it was the same Teng Wu from before, seeing the other party come over, he said bluntly, “Teng Wu, you will make an information jade slip of Zhou Xuan’s ranking fluctuation from the time he entered the Realm of Enlightenment and send it to me.”

In every Holy Land, at the beginning of the Tongtian Grand Election, there was a corresponding person within the Holy Land to record the participants in the Tongtian Grand Election Literary Selection.

These personnel, naturally, were the ranking floats of all the disciples of the holy land, as well as the disciples within the continents under the holy land’s command.

After all, holy lands and divine bodies were scarce, and all holy lands and divine bodies would be the ones in charge of the holy lands in the future.

And the root of supporting the holy land was the other large number of disciples who participated in the Tong Tian Great Election of literature, who would later be the mainstay and top level of the holy land.

Therefore, every holy land would not ignore these disciples.

In the Ziyang Holy Land, it was Bo Cai Lou that paid attention to and analyzed the potential of these disciples.

“Yes.”

After Teng Wu answered, he ended up still just going out the door when he saw a person rushing over with an ecstatic face.

Teng Wu quickly stopped him, “Xiang Tian, what’s so urgent?”

“Lord Teng!” Xiang Tian gave a big smile, “Happy news, we have discovered a true genius.”

“Who?”

“This son is named Zhou Xuan, when he first entered the Realm of Enlightenment, he was mediocre, but in just one month, his opponent has gone from the beginning of the Fruit of Intent to the current Great Fruit of Intent.”

“Now that everyone in the Realm of Enlightenment is in a state of stagnation, this son is different, and his rankings are still rising crazily.”

“When I came over, this Zhou Xuan was already up to eight thousand five hundred and sixty-three.”

“This son usually has the Dao Fruit all to himself, but even so, the speed at which the other party comprehends the Dao of Dharma Intent is extremely fast, with the fastest being two days, and the slowest being seven days.”

“Clearly, the other party’s comprehension is excellent.”

“My Purple Sun Holy Land, even if I don’t have a Sacred Body or a God…”

“Cough…”

Teng Wu coughed, interrupting the other party.

When Xiang Tian heard it, he reacted and stopped in a hurry, looking around, seeing that everyone was immersed in the literary perspective, he couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said apprehensively, “Your Excellency…”

“Don’t worry, I didn’t hear you, you report what just happened, to the deacon.” With that, he whispered, “My Purple Sun Holy Land does not have a Holy Body or a Divine Body, this Zhou Xuan has appeared at just the right time, it’s just the right moment to invigorate the people.”

“Yes.”

Soon, Teng Wu led Xiang Tian to Lin Lujiang’s face as he laughed, “Lord Deacon, I haven’t even begun to access it yet, the matter about Zhou Xuan has already alarmed them.”

As soon as Lin Lujiang saw the uniform that the visitor was wearing, he knew that the other party was the person in charge of monitoring the Cultural Election in Bo Cai Building.

“Sit.”

After Xiang Tian sat down, he repeated what he had just said to Teng Wu outside to Deacon Lin, of course he didn’t say anything about the Divine Body of the Sacred Ground and the Sacred Body, just now he just made a slip of the tongue.

And after Lin Lujiang heard it, he couldn’t help but take a deep breath, “Is this matter true?”

“Naturally it’s true.” After saying that, Xiang Tian slapped his head, because he was so excited, he almost forgot, and then took out a piece of information jade slip from his storage ring, “Lord Deacon, regarding Zhou Xuan’s initial entry into the Realm of Enlightenment, and up until now a month’s time ago, the other party’s floating information on the rankings are all in this jade slip.”

Lin Lujiang took it, and with a sweep of his divine sense, he quickly saw it clearly.

He took a deep breath, “Very good…”

Lin Lujiang was just about to say that the Sacred Ground did not have any Sacred Bodies or Divine Bodies, and with Zhou Xuan appearing, it was the right time to boost morale and for the higher-ups to talk about their comfort.

But after thinking about it, he still didn’t say anything, he just laughed and said, “Three of you, I’ll give you all a credit, this matter is delightful and can be publicized more.”

“Yes!”

Soon, Lin Lujiang sent the three of them away, while he straightened his clothes and rode the flying ladder towards the highest floor of the Bo Cai Building.

Every giant building in the Ziyang Holy Land, except for the Qi Tian Building, was four thousand floors, or twelve thousand meters in height.

Within the flying ladder, Lin Lujiang then contacted the building owner with his identity jade token, saying that he had something important to report.

So when he reached the top of the building, the guards didn’t stop him, but let him enter.

“You said there is something good, what is it?”

The owner of Bo Cai Building’s name was Nie Qing Yun.

Normally when the Tongtian Election started, everyone in the Holy Land would use the Streaming Light Manifestation to substitute the perspective of a certain disciple that everyone was concerned about.

But Nie Qingyun was clearly not in the mood.

Right now, the moods of the higher-ups of the Ziyang Holy Land were all very depressed, and other than the first day or two when they paid attention for a while, for the rest of the time, they basically didn’t pay attention anymore.

It was like the reality that there was a very important tournament about to start, only to find out that it didn’t even have a team from their own country participating?
What else is there to watch?
Of course you can still watch the fun.

But Nie Qingyun obviously didn’t even bother to watch the action.

Lin Lujiang’s face was respectful as he said, “My subordinate has discovered a wunderkind, this person’s name is Zhou Xuan, when he first entered the Realm of Enlightenment he was only a Dharma Fruit Perfection, but in just a month’s time he has already achieved a great success in the Fruit of Intent, and according to the watchdog group, this son’s ranking is still soaring up.”

“Oh?”

Upon hearing this, Nie Qingyun’s hand reached out, and the information jade brief in Deacon Lin’s hand reached him.

With a sweep of his divine sense, he quickly realized what was going on.

“Not bad, a genius indeed. You guys did a good job, go down and collect your rewards.”

“Yes.”

Lin Lujiang sniffed and respectfully exited the room, gently bringing the door with him.

He sighed with disappointment in his eyes.

It seems that not being a Sacred Body or Divine Body isn’t worth the attention of the higher-ups at all.

Thinking about this, Lin Lujiang shook his head and went back to his office.

As for Nie Qingyun, after Lin Rujiang left, he placed the information jade slip on the table, and he couldn’t help but sigh at the thought of the Great Election of Tong Tian.

“Just as well, let’s see how this Zhou Xuan is doing, after all, I am the Master of the Bo Cai Building, some true geniuses are still something to keep an eye on.”

In Nie Qingyun’s opinion, this TongTian Grand Election’s literary selection, being able to enter the Hatching Dao stage was already the limit.

Like that Min Shan Yuan in first place must have amazing chances, but even so, after a month had passed, the other party was still in the Hatching Dao stage even though they were still in first place.

In Nie Qingyun’s opinion, this was normal.

Because this Dao Hatching Stage is not something that the Foundation Establishment Realm can step into.

To be able to enter the Dao Seed stage at the Foundation Establishment Realm, one could already declare in advance that half a foot had already entered the Harmonious Dao.

As long as one reached the Questioning Realm, entering the Harmonious Dao was just a matter of time.

This kind of person, in Nie Qingyun’s opinion, could be much rarer than Saint Bodies and God Bodies.
