Heavenly Emperor of Myriad Realms

While he was panicking in his heart, Zhou Qing suddenly felt the Fate Stone Spirit Bone in front of his forehead tremble slightly. A strange fluctuation spread out and instantly covered his entire body.

With this wave of energy enveloping him, the feeling of panic in Zhou Qing's heart that had been seen through instantly disappeared.

In the horizon, Spiritual Master Crimson Fire's eyes were blazing as he stared down at Zhou Qing.

Not only were the mages puzzled, even he wanted to investigate what secrets were on this little fellow.

A powerful Spiritual Sense instantly enveloped Zhou Qing. Every inch of Zhou Qing's flesh and blood was clearly reflected in his eyes.

A short while later, Adept Crimson Fire frowned.

Song Changqing was just an ordinary late stage Soul Condensation cultivator. Other than his dense Spiritual Energy, he didn't notice anything else strange about him!

Slightly shaking his head, Adept Crimsonflame retracted his spiritual sense.

It wasn't that there weren't any secret techniques that could avoid detection in this world, but these techniques could be used to confuse mages. In front of a real person, it was impossible to hide them.

Sensing that the terrifying gaze above her head had disappeared, Zhou Qing's taut heartstrings also gradually relaxed.

So dangerous!

"Di Feng, the remaining talismans, before the stone stairs collapsed, did the two of you remember where the competitors were?"

Adept Crimsonflame looked towards Di Feng and the rest of the talismans.

Both of them were powerful mages with amazing memory, so they bowed and said, "Elder, remember!"

Spiritual Master Chihuo slightly nodded. "If that's the case, then Song Changqing's result will be at the peak. As for the others, their results will be based on where they were before the collapse of the stone stairs."

Actually, he could count Zhou Qing's result as one hundred and sixty steps. However, the former had already obtained his top-grade magic technique, and due to face, the Mysterious Sky Sect could not withdraw it. Thus, they directly confirmed Zhou Qing's achievement.

Once Adept Crimson Fire made his decision, some people were overjoyed while others were worried.

Many participants with poor results in climbing the stone stairs had been hoping for a fluke. Since everyone was at the same starting line, then the result couldn't be any better.

However, Spiritual Master Crimson Fire's decision had completely shattered their hopes of getting lucky.

"Adept, this …"

Lan Yuan was shocked. He suddenly raised his head to look at Spiritual Master Crimson Fire.

According to the latter, Song Changqing's result would be considered as reaching the top. Then, the ancient monument would directly enter into the ranks of the Four Great Clans, taking over the Lan Clan's position!

"You have an objection?"

Sage Crimson Fire frowned as he looked down at Lan Yuan. A majestic and terrifying pressure suddenly descended upon him.

Boom!

Lan Yuan's stooped body became even more bent under the pressure. His mana was completely unable to operate and his face was flushed to the extreme.

The gap between a mage and a real person was like an insurmountable chasm!

"Reporting to Daoist Master … No... "No."

Lan Yuan's voice was hoarse as he spoke with great difficulty.

"Hmph." Adept Crimsonflame let out a cold snort. Only now did the boundless aura retreat like the receding tide.

Space trembled. Adept Crimsonflame's body slowly grew blurry, then completely disappeared.

"We respectfully send you off, Adept!"

Everyone shouted.

After Adept Crimson Fire left, Lin Long finally smiled and said, "Since that's the case, this old man will announce the final result of this ranking tournament."

"The Solidified Realm competition is over. "Song Changqing from the Ancient Tablet Sect will gain the opportunity to become the personal disciple of the Mysterious Sky Sect; the top ten will gain the chance to become the elite disciples of the Mysterious Sky Sect; and the top ten will become the foreign delegates of our Mysterious Sky Sect after today."

"After the ranking competition is over, the Lan Clan will no longer be part of the Four Great Clans. The Ancient Tablet Sect will take over the Lan Clan."

"The spirit veins controlled by the Lan Clan shall be handed over to the Ancient Tablet Gate. Half of all the assets under it shall be allocated to the Ancient Tablet Sect. "The related matters must be completed within a month."

Every time Lin Long spoke, Lan Yuan's face would lose all color. In the end, his face was deathly pale as he sat there paralyzed. He looked as if he had aged ten years in an instant.

The true person had given the order that the ranking tournament had already been decided.

He had always been unwilling and unwilling. In the end, the Lan family was removed from the Four Great Families.

On the other side, Su Mu was extremely excited. He had a smile on his face and his eyes were shining brightly. He seemed to be brimming with vigor.

After today, the world would change. The top four powers under the Profound Heaven Sect would gain the name of the 'Ancient Stele Gate'!

"The rankings of the other sects will be announced tomorrow."

"This ranking tournament has officially ended!"

As soon as Lin Long finished speaking, he beckoned with his hand. The huge screen of light rapidly shrank before turning back into a scroll made of beast skin and landing in his hand.

Lin Long did not stay any longer. He walked out of the auction hall along with Di Feng and Yu Fu.

After the people from the Mysterious Sky Sect left, Su Mu became the absolute center of attention.

With a real person leading the charge, he was one of the four great families … In the short span of a few days, the status of the Ancient Tablet Sect underwent an earth-shattering transformation.

Many mages came forward to congratulate him. Such a powerful new power was a target of their friendship.

Meanwhile, Zhou Qing had also become an extremely dazzling star. He was surrounded by the disciples of the hundreds of immortal sects.

Not to mention his relationship with the Ancient Tablet Sect, just the fact that he had the qualification to become the direct disciple of the Mysterious Sky Sect made him worthy of everyone's friendship.

The position of the Mysterious Sky Sect's direct disciples was equally extraordinary!

Thus, even though their storage rings had been stolen, some of the Immortal Sect disciples had been sent a message by their seniors to strike up a good relationship with Zhou Qing.

As for the Lan family, they had been forgotten.

Lan Yuan's expression was terrifyingly gloomy as he stared unwaveringly at Zhou Qing. The viciousness in his eyes could not be resolved as killing intent filled them.

"Let's go back."

After a long time, Lan Yuan finally spoke in a hoarse voice and left the arena without looking back.

Behind him, Lan Ningwen didn't even dare to breathe as he followed closely.

Ten Weir City, at the entrance of the ancient monument.

Over a thousand disciples of the Ancient Tablet Martial School were all gathered in the Martial Arts Practice Grounds, all of them lined up in a neat formation with a solemn face.

Great Elder Tang Ji and Sect Guardian Elder Cai Yuanhu stood at the front of the line. Behind them were the other elders, including some Spirit Realm core disciples. They numbered a total of thirty-five powerful Mages.

Even the four elders that were guarding the Spirit Transformation Pool had rarely left the back mountain today, so they too stood within the group.

Su Leng, the daughter of the Sect Leader and also the top disciple in the younger generation of the Ancient Tablet Sect, stood behind all the Mages.

With so many experts gathered, the majestic aura that was being emitted caused the surrounding Spiritual Aura within the world to become chaotic.

Over a thousand people were silent at this moment as they looked at the northern sky, waiting for something.

Even the lively Su Leng was like this.

At a certain moment, three silhouettes suddenly appeared in the northern skies, walking towards the direction of the entrance to the ancient monument at top speed.

It was Su Mu, Zhou Qing, and Yi Jin!

Zhou Qing was led by Su Mu. From afar, they could see a large group of people gathered around the ancient monument's training field.

Su Mu also saw this scene. He was beaming with happiness. As his Fa Li surged through his body, his speed once again soared.

Very quickly, the three of them arrived at the entrance of the ancient monument.

Su Mu didn't immediately descend. Instead, he floated in the sky and looked down on the enormous entrance of the ancient monument. His expression was solemn, but the emotion in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

"This trip, triumphant return!"

Suddenly, Su Mu opened his mouth and shouted. His voice was like a thunderclap, echoing endlessly in the sky above the ancient monument!

Boom!

The instant Su Mu's voice sounded, an aura gushed forth from the battle stage and soared into the sky.

"Congratulations to the Sect Leader!"

"To the sect!"

Cai Yuanhu shouted in response with excitement.

"Congratulations to the Sect Leader! To the sect! "

The instant Cai Yuanhu's voice fell, the over thousand year old disciples of the stone monument simultaneously let out roars.

Thousands of people shouted in unison, and their voices were deafening. In a flash, it had spread throughout the entire Ten Weir City.

Even the mortals in the city felt their blood boil at the sound of such a vast and imposing aura!

At the same time, thousands of burning gazes also turned towards the slender figure on Su Mu's left.

The victory report had already arrived, and everyone knew that Song Changqing had rendered great merits in order to be able to make the ranking tournament a success.

Relying on his late stage Soul Formation cultivation, he was able to turn the tide!

Zhou Qing stood proudly in the air, feeling the gaze of thousands of scorching hot gazes upon him. Even someone as calm and indifferent as him could feel his heart surge with emotions at this moment.

Within the crowd, Su Leng similarly raised his head to look at Zhou Qing. His expression was extremely complicated, and his beautiful eyes flickered with a strange light.

When he thought back to how he made things difficult for her when he first arrived at the sect, Su Leng felt her beautiful face burn.

At the entrance of the ancient monument, in the Procedural Hall.

Sect Leader Su Mu and dozens of elders were gathered here.

Zhou Qing's identity was different from before. He was a great sage who had contributed greatly to the ancient monument. He was arranged to sit next to Su Mu.

The Ancient Tablet Gate had replaced the Lan family and became one of the four great families. It was not as simple as just a title. It involved a lot of cultivation resources, the transfer of industries, operations, and so on. It was extremely complicated.

The reason why the upper echelons of the ancient monument were gathered here today was also because of this matter.

"Then it's decided. Elder Cai, you're in charge of the Spirit Vein. Elder Tang, you're in charge of the Lan family's inheritance. Elder Nan is in charge of increasing the sect's strength and accepting disciples …"

Su Mu was beaming with happiness as he scanned through the crowd and started assigning tasks.

Cai Yuanhu, Tang Ji, and the other elders were also excited and nodded their heads.

After discussing all of this, Su Mu looked at Zhou Qing and asked with a smile, "Little friend Song, have you considered about joining the Sect?"

As the sound of Su Mu's voice faded, everyone turned to look at Zhou Qing, anticipation evident in their eyes.

In the ranking tournament, Zhou Qing had displayed extraordinary strength and potential.

With a late stage Soul Formation cultivation, he was able to suppress people of the same cultivation level!

This kind of prodigy would definitely become a mage in the future, and it wasn't impossible for him to be in the Real Realm.

If he could absorb them into his sect, perhaps a few decades later, the ancient monolith sect would have another powerful Adept!

After a pause, Su Mu sincerely said, "Of course, with little friend Song's talent, joining the Black Heaven Sect as a personal disciple is the best choice. I won't force you."

Zhou Qing had already made up his mind about this matter. He smiled and shook his head.

"I am grateful for Clan Master Su's good intentions. "However, I have wandered out alone for many years. I am not used to joining a sect at this time …"

Upon hearing this, Su Mu felt slightly regretful. After pondering for a moment, he once again said sincerely: "Then, how about you put up with the guest elder status at the Ancient Tablet Gate? "He doesn't need to live in a sect, nor will he restrict Song Little Friend's movements. He's the same as the guest elder of the Profound Heaven Sect."

This time, Zhou Qing did not hesitate, directly nodding his head in agreement.

Su Mu then smiled, "That's good …" However, little friend, if you ever want to join a sect in the future, the entrance to our Ancient Tablet Gate will always be open for you! "

"In that case, thank you, Sect Leader Su!"

Zhou Qing cupped his hands in thanks.

"Little friend Song has done a great service for the ranking tournament this time. The promised reward is rather small …"

Su Mu suddenly thought of something and frowned.

The reason why the Ancient Stele Clan had been able to rise to the top this time around was because of Zhou Qing.

Using gold, silver, pills, and other external items as compensation was truly a bit unpresentable. As for the Spirit Transformation Pool, Zhou Qing had already entered it once.

"Elders, I will pass the《 Nine Styles of the Profound Tablet》 to little friend Song, do you have any objections?"

Suddenly, Su Mu looked at Cai Yuan Hu and the others and asked.
