This person from the north was no stranger to Ye Chu. He had dealt with him several times before. This was an extraordinary figure, a true talent. Ye Chu felt great wariness towards this person.
He was none other than the Heavenly Feather Prince, whom Ye Chu had met in the Ancient Demon Forbidden Land and again at the Tan family residence. As a descendant of a supreme being, this identity destined him to be remarkable.
“Why has he come here?” Ye Chu muttered. His eyes shone brightly as he watched the Heavenly Feather Prince, waiting for him to make a move.
The Heavenly Feather Prince’s action drew everyone’s attention. The crowd saw his body wrapped in radiant light and knew this person was exceptional. But when the Heavenly Feather Prince’s artistic conception vibrated out, these people suddenly cried out in alarm. One by one, they stared with widened eyes in shock.
“Heaven and earth phenomena. Is this a true talent?”
Above the void, there appeared a peerless phenomenon of a rainbow piercing the sun. It was brilliantly beautiful yet also brought heart palpitations. The phenomenon vibrated forth with supreme sharpness. It truly shot out like a rainbow piercing the sun.
The barrier’s flying swords shot out and clashed with the rainbow. The flying sword artistic conception that chilled so many cultivators’ hearts was like fragile clay tiles and earthen dogs before his phenomenon. The flying swords shattered instantly. With no flying swords to defend it, the barrier cracked open a gap by itself. The Heavenly Feather Prince shot through and landed at the shore of the Dragon Blood Lake.
He entered so swiftly that many people had not yet reacted. They stared blankly at this scene, their hearts shaken by the might of a true talent.
“As expected of a true talent. Truly extraordinary. The test left by a supreme powerhouse was broken so easily.”
“True talents are truly the reincarnation of immortals or saints. Ordinary people cannot hope to match them.”
The crowd sighed in admiration and awe at the bearing of a true talent. Their eyes towards the Heavenly Feather Prince were full of worship.
“Brother Chen! I have entered first. Will you not come in?” The Heavenly Feather Prince was long accustomed to such discussions. He ignored the others and shouted loudly in one direction. “Brother Tan Chen, will you not come in? Could it be that you even look down on dragon blood?”
The Heavenly Feather Prince’s loud laugh startled the crowd. They wondered who could make a true talent address as brother. Could it be another true talent? This made every person widen their eyes.
“Hahaha… Since Brother Tianyu invites me, how could Tan Chen dare not come!”
A bold and heroic voice rang out. The crowd looked over and saw in the distance a heaven and earth phenomenon like moving mountains and overturning seas surging forth. Illusory high mountains and vast seas shot over from afar. A young man floated over within the sea phenomenon, like an immortal descending, graceful and with an extraordinary bearing.
The mountains and seas formed from the heaven and earth phenomenon crashed into the barrier’s flying swords and instantly crushed them. He stepped forward and landed beside the Heavenly Feather Prince.
“Heavens, another true talent!”
Many people cried out in surprise and stared at Tan Chen with eyes full of awe.
The two of them charged in, causing many from the younger generation to go wild again. One after another, they shot forward, each displaying secret techniques and vibrating their powers to enter.
Artistic conceptions vibrated, and countless flying swords filled the surroundings. Finally, after Tan Chen and the Heavenly Feather Prince, some cultivators entered the Dragon Blood Lake.
Once the first entered, a second followed. Many gritted their teeth, pushing their artistic conceptions to the extreme, striving to gain the barrier’s approval.
This frenzy did allow several people to enter. However, compared to the terrifying army of cultivators, only this small number getting in made the proportion extremely low.
“Little Sword King!”
Ye Jingyun reminded Ye Chu while looking at the person who had just entered. The Little Sword King’s artistic conception was extraordinary, and he entered with great ease. Although not as awe inspiring as Tan Chen and the Heavenly Feather Prince, among the rest he could be considered the one who entered most effortlessly.
After seeing the Little Sword King enter, Ye Jingyun could no longer hold back. She danced her artistic conception, and her holy image vibrated forth. The elephant legs formed from the holy image patterns stomped fiercely forward. The incoming flying swords were directly crushed underfoot. Ye Jingyun entered the Dragon Blood Lake.
This caused many to cry out in surprise. Although the holy beast patterns could not compare to heaven and earth phenomena, for ordinary cultivators they were still lofty and unattainable existences.
“Heaven and earth truly have many geniuses. All kinds of artistic patterns are appearing. Ferocious beasts, holy beasts, and heaven and earth phenomena have all shown themselves. Usually, geniuses with artistic patterns are rare to see.”
Many sighed. If not for such a treasure appearing, how could they witness so many artistic pattern geniuses.
Ye Jingyun’s holy image also drew the attention of Tan Chen and the Heavenly Feather Prince. These two had met Ye Jingyun once before. Seeing her look towards them, they nodded in greeting.
But in the direction where they nodded to Ye Jingyun, they saw Ye Chu standing not far away. This made the two of them pause in surprise.
Back at the Tan family artistic conception contest, this youth had left them with a deep impression. Seeing Ye Chu’s gaze directed at them, Tan Chen smiled and said, “Brother Ye, why not come in quickly?”
This one sentence left the crowd puzzled. They wondered if there was yet another true talent.
Ye Chu nodded in response to Tan Chen but did not rush to enter. He turned to Yang Ning and Yang Hui beside him and said, “You two try to see if you can get in.”
Yang Ning and Yang Hui nodded. Their artistic conceptions vibrated forth. Theirs were ferocious beast types. As they vibrated, they tried to shatter the flying swords.
Yet although the ferocious beasts were terrifying, the flying swords kept them outside, making entry difficult. The two women gritted their teeth and moved forward with hardship, struggling to resist the flying swords. They advanced with great effort.
The confrontation between the flying swords and ferocious beasts was evenly matched. Ye Chu watched from the side and thought that for these two women to get in would probably be somewhat difficult.
“Brother Ye! Long time no see. Do you not wish to have a chat with us?” Tan Chen laughed heartily. His clear and bright voice carried out, drawing sidelong glances from many, including the Little Sword King. They wondered who could make a true talent invite him repeatedly.
Seeing Tan Chen like this, Ye Chu smiled without saying anything. His artistic conception vibrated forth with nine stars in a string. It erupted with terrifying radiance and shot straight towards the barrier. The barrier’s flying swords shattered instantly, opening a gap for Ye Chu to pass through.
Ye Chu looked at this gap but did not enter. Instead he shouted to Yang Ning and Yang Hui, “Enter quickly!”
With a push of power, Ye Chu used his artistic patterns to resist the barrier’s violent flying swords and forcibly sent the two inside.
This scene caused many to cry out in surprise. Ye Chu helping outsiders enter meant he had to withstand the barrier’s artistic conception test for three people. Even one person’s test was headache inducing. Could he endure for three?
“Nine stars in a string, ten thousand blooms!”
Ye Chu’s artistic patterns vibrated. The nine stars linked through, forming a straight line. Ten thousand blooms appeared, with infinite fragrance spreading out.
“Another heaven and earth phenomenon!” Many cried out in surprise and stared at Ye Chu with widened eyes.
Their gazes turned to Tan Chen, and they finally understood why such a true talent would call out to Ye Chu.
The Little Sword King was also stunned. He had not expected Ye Chu to possess a heaven and earth phenomenon. This made him frown, with even colder sharpness and unwillingness in his eyes.
“Is the young master a true talent?” Yang Ning and Yang Hui were equally shocked by this result. Although they had witnessed Ye Chu’s various wonders, they had never imagined he would be a true talent.
The significance of a true talent was too great. Any true talent who could survive would almost certainly become a powerhouse of one region.
All around fell into silence. Today their shocks had been too many. Here, three true talents had actually appeared.
