In the God Realm, a Divine Sovereign is already considered a powerful expert.
At this stage, the speed of cultivation becomes extremely slow.
Without the support of a formidable force providing ample cultivation resources, it would take at least five thousand years to break through a minor realm.
Qin Hanchu, currently in the late stage of the Divine Sovereign realm, would be able to reach the peak of the Divine Sovereign realm in a short period with this Ascension Fortune Divine Pill.
"I wonder where the Grand Feast of Splendor is held?" Qin Hanchu asked.
The Divine Sovereign who had spoken to Qin Hanchu earlier smiled and said, "We are heading there now. Would the two of you like to accompany us?"
"Very well, we shall trouble the three fellow Daoists to lead the way."
Seeing Qin Hanchu agree, the Divine Sovereign who had spoken replied with a smile, "My name is Tian Xingzhi, and these two are my fellow disciples."
"My name is Qin Hanchu, and this is my wife."
Tian Xingzhi chuckled and said, "The two of you are a perfect match, truly enviable."
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the five of them flew forward together.
Several months later, the five passed by a fiery mountain.
The temperature of this fiery mountain was extremely high, and it was common to see surging flames erupting from cracks.
Despite being such a fiery mountain, it was covered in numerous fire-element divine plants.
These divine plants were of no use to those in the God Realm, but to cultivators in the Immortal Realm, they were priceless treasures.
As soon as they entered the depths of the fiery mountain, Tian Xingzhi and his two companions stopped.
Qin Hanchu and Axiang also stopped, "Fellow Daoists, why have we stopped?"
"We are waiting for some fellow Daoists to arrive before proceeding together," Tian Xingzhi asked with a smile, "By the way, I have yet to ask which sect the two of you come from?"
"Does that matter?" Qin Hanchu replied.
Seeing Qin Hanchu not answer, Tian Xingzhi smiled and said, "It's just casual conversation."
Axiang inquired, "When can your companions be expected?"
Tian Xingzhi pointed into the distance, where five streaks of light were rapidly approaching, "They have arrived."
Although they saw the lights, it still took these five people an hour to reach them.
These five individuals did not fall back; instead, they surrounded the five of Qin Hanchu.
Boom!
In an instant, a divine formation was activated.
This divine formation was a God Sovereign-level killing formation, and Qin Hanchu and his companions were at its center.
At this very moment, Tian Xingzhi and his two companions suddenly distanced themselves from Qin Hanchu and Axiang.
Qin Hanchu and Axiang remained composed, as they had long suspected these three had ulterior motives.
"What is the meaning of this?" Qin Hanchu asked sternly.
Tian Xingzhi chuckled, "Fellow Daoists, we request that you hand over the God Emperor-level divine skills you have cultivated."
"You wish to rob us of our divine skills? Have you grown tired of living?" Axiang asked coldly.
"Even if you cultivate God Emperor-level divine skills, you will not be a match for the eight of us."
"If you are wise, hand them over willingly and do not put up a futile struggle."
Tian Xingzhi had initially assumed Qin Hanchu and Axiang hailed from powerful factions, but he never expected them to be unaware of the Grand Feast of Splendor.
The Grand Feast of Splendor was held every five thousand years, a grand event hosted by the Ancient Dao Academy.
If Qin Hanchu and Axiang were disciples of major powers, they would undoubtedly know about the Grand Feast of Splendor.
Therefore, Tian Xingzhi concluded that Qin Hanchu was a rogue cultivator who had stumbled upon an opportunity.
To Tian Xingzhi, such rogue cultivators who possessed God Emperor-level divine skills were gifts from heaven, like treasure boys.
Previously, with only three of them, they lacked the confidence to subdue Qin Hanchu and Axiang.
Along the way, the three had gathered friends and set up this killing formation.
In their eyes, Qin Hanchu and Axiang had fallen into their trap.
At this moment, Qin Hanchu and Axiang were like lambs to the slaughter!
"Alas, since you seek death, then I shall oblige you," Qin Hanchu sighed.
"What?"
Tian Xingzhi and the other seven widened their eyes in shock.
What did Qin Hanchu mean by that?
They had eight people, and Qin Hanchu and Axiang still dared to speak so boldly?
As they marveled, a portal appeared behind Qin Hanchu.
Immediately after, eighteen Divine Sovereigns flew out from the portal.
"Not good, flee!"
"We've been tricked!"
"How..."
The sudden appearance of the Overlord Sea Gang Master and the others stunned the eight into a pale fright.
They had not expected Qin Hanchu to have so many hidden companions.
In the face of so many Divine Sovereigns, the eight of them had no chance of winning.
Tian Xingzhi and the other seven attempted to escape, but it was not so easy.
Qin Hanchu and Axiang attacked together, directly blocking their path.
An hour later, only Tian Xingzhi remained on the scene!
At this moment, Tian Xingzhi was filled with terror. He immediately knelt in the void, "Fellow Daoist Qin, I beg you to spare my life!"
"Kill him!"
His accomplices had all been eliminated. How could Qin Hanchu allow him to live alone?
Facing the onslaught of the Overlord Sea Gang Master and the others, Tian Xingzhi was quickly dispatched.
...
The Grand Feast of Splendor was a grand event hosted by the Ancient Dao Academy, so naturally, its venue was within the academy's territory.
It took Qin Hanchu and Axiang three years to reach Ancient Hua City.
This session of the Grand Feast of Splendor was to be held here.
Due to the Grand Feast of Splendor, Ancient Hua City was bustling with activity.
Walking on the streets, one could see Divine Sovereign realm cultivators everywhere.
"I wonder what kind of peerless figures will appear at this Grand Feast of Splendor!"
"Others may not know, but I will definitely be on the list!"
"Based on what? I advise you not to harbor too many hopes."
"We here are just spectators. I'm afraid we won't even make it to the semifinals."
"Exactly. Whether it's divine skills or divine artifacts, we are not qualified to compare with the Divine Sovereigns of those major factions."
"Look, that's Bai Qiuhan from the Hundred Refinements Divine Sect! His father is the Sect Master of the Hundred Refinements Divine Sect, and the Nine Revolutions Divine Refining Art he cultivates is a God Emperor-level cultivation technique."
As the son of the Hundred Refinements Sect Master, Bai Qiuhan possessed the best divine skills and divine artifacts, so he was almost guaranteed to reach the finals.
The various major factions within the Ancient Dao Academy had dispatched their strongest disciples to participate in this Grand Feast of Splendor.
This Bai Qiuhan was just one of them!
Roar...
Just then, a beast's roar echoed through the air.
Everyone in the city looked up, only to see a Divine Sovereign-level divine beast descending from the clouds.
Standing on this divine beast was a woman in green.
This woman was stunningly beautiful, and her attire was revealing, drawing people's attention.
"Zhuo Yaoyao of the Beast Taming Divine Sect!"
"I heard this woman cultivates the True Phoenix Divine Art, and her strength is truly terrifying!"
"Compared to her, Bai Qiuhan might even pale in comparison."
As everyone marveled, Zhuo Yaoyao gracefully landed.
As she descended, the Divine Sovereign-level divine beast transformed into a small puppy that followed at Zhuo Yaoyao's feet.
"Yaoyao, why didn't you wait for me?"
A golden divine light suddenly descended, and a burly man emerged from the divine light.
"Battle Maniac Tiger, he's here too! I heard he possesses the bloodline of the Ancient God clan, and his physical body is incredibly formidable."
"The rumors are indeed true. Battle Maniac Tiger is fiercely pursuing Zhuo Yaoyao."
