Chapter 375: The Eternal Prosperity Sect Shines

The intelligence records did not contain that detail.

The Sect Master of the Heavenly Void Sect secretly thought, The Gou Family Patriarch is truly an idiot who doesn’t know what he’s throwing away. For the sake of some inexplicable woman, he abandoned his wife and neglected such an exceptionally talented biological grandson. He even tried to ruin him. Now that the Eternal Prosperity Sect has benefited from it, he must be regretting it.

What an unfilial son! No wonder he disappeared from Azure Origin City. So he ran off and latched onto an expert from the Upper Realm. Damn it, they even managed to heal that boy’s injuries.

The Gou Family Patriarch’s face immediately turned livid. Behind him, several Gou Family Elders were whispering among themselves as they watched Gou Guangyan’s outstanding performance.

Again and again, he seized Spirit Cave Keys from his opponents and their hearts ached.

If Gou Guangyan had never been injured and had remained with the Gou Family, all those Spirit Transformation Spirit Caves would have belonged to the Gou Family.

But look at him now. He was taking one Spirit Cave Key after another.

The Gou Family’s disciples had already been knocked off the platform by him and not a single Spirit Cave Key for the Spirit Transformation stage had been obtained by the Gou Family this time.

If they wanted another chance, they would have to wait until the next Heaven Origin Grand Competition a hundred years later.

This was truly...

"The one with tremendous physical strength isn’t bad either. He’s a promising candidate for body cultivation. However, I feel that something about him is a little..." The Sect Master of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect said as he watching Mo Yichen.

Mo Yichen was relying entirely on his overwhelming physical strength and incredibly tough body to withstand various attacks. After seizing the Spirit Cave Keys, he casually threw his opponents off the competition platform one after another.

Xiao Shou could not help sighing inwardly.

Of course something felt strange! He was a transformed demonic beast. Naturally, his body was exceptionally tough.

Xiao Shou glanced at Mo Yichen’s performance before turning her attention to the Nascent Soul competition platform. There, Gou Yuheng, Water Qilin, and Nangong Si were all fighting.

These three had joined the sect relatively late. Xiao Shou also did not spend much time staying within the sect, so he was not particularly familiar with their strength. However, since Fu Young had personally chosen them, there was presumably a reason.

Sure enough, after sensing their performances, Xiao Shou was pleasantly surprised.

Nangong Si cultivated both formations and talismans. With casual gestures, he continuously deployed one mixed Tier 5 formation after another and anyone who stepped into his formations immediately became his prey.

Nangong Si then overwhelmed them with a large number of talismans, defeating his opponents without even using his own spiritual energy. As a result, he had already obtained quite a number of Spirit Cave Keys.

Water Qilin was no weaker either. After all, he was an auspicious water elemental divine beast with innate fortune protecting him. His water element divine abilities were also astonishing. He had brought the control of water element techniques to an extraordinary level.

The divine beast’s might alone was something ordinary cultivators could hardly withstand. His speed in seizing Spirit Cave Keys was no slower than Nangong Si’s.

Although Gou Yuheng had a scholarly appearance, he was actually an extremely powerful sword cultivator. He came from a branch of the Gou Family and possessed excellent talent for sword cultivation. He had originally been heavily nurtured by the family, but after the Gou Family’s Great Elder ascended, his situation changed. He was abandoned along with Gou Guangyan.

After joining the Eternal Prosperity Sect, he received abundant cultivation resources and trained desperately until he reached his current level. Now, he was displaying astonishing prowess in the competition arena, seemingly capable of holding his own even against ten opponents at once.

"Isn’t that Gou Yuheng, the famous sword cultivator from the Gou Family’s branch clan a few years ago?"

"The Gou Family... What a bunch of blind fools. They had a treasure right in front of them, yet they chose some worthless trash instead."

"Just wait and see. The Gou Family will eventually fall because of him!"

"Gou Guangyan over there has already gotten back on his feet and even found powerful backing in the Upper Realm. Why would he be afraid of him now?"

"That’s right!"

The constant discussions around the seats felt like knives stabbing directly into the hearts of the Gou Family Patriarch and elders, leaving their expressions extremely grim.

One of the younger looking elders could not hold back and quietly asked, "Patriarch, what should we do?"

"...Let’s wait and see." The Gou Family Patriarch secretly clenched his teeth.

That unfilial wretch.

At the same time, it was not only the distinguished guests in the main seats who were discussing the participants. The spectators were even more excited, constantly commenting on the strengths and weaknesses of the various competitors.

As Nangong Si, Water Qilin, and Gou Yuheng gradually demonstrated their outstanding cultivation and combat abilities, they quickly attracted the attention of the crowd.

"Hey, isn’t that the famous Grandmaster Nangong Si, the dual cultivator of formations and talismans?"

"He’s actually participating in this year’s Grand Competition?"

"He must want to obtain a good cultivation cave, right?"

"Eh? Something’s not right. Look at the patterns on his clothes and the token around his waist."

"That’s a sect emblem!"

"Grandmaster Nangong Si joined a sect?"

"Which sect is it?"

"The Eternal Prosperity Sect?"

"Never heard of it!"

"Shh! Did you forget? That’s the sect belonging to the person with powerful backing from the Upper Realm, the one sitting over there!"

"Oh! It’s him. Thanks for reminding me, fellow Daoist."

"That kid over there is way too young. They actually let such a child participate. Yet he’s getting stronger and stronger. Look at him go. He’s having such a great time!"
