Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao

Chapter 129 Undercurrents





================¶¶================

"Senior Crixus is out of seclusion and has challenged an elder!"

These words were heard by every disciple who was in the sect.

Crixus, the number one Elite Disciple and also the strongest Prime Disciple Candidate is out of seclusion.

And the first thing he did after coming out of seclusion was to challenge one of the elders.

Immediately after the news of this spread, there was an uproar in the sect as this was the first time an elder was being challenged by a disciple.

Everyone waited eagerly for the results of the battle but unfortunately, it was not made known to the public.

There was no information as to which elder was challenged, and neither were the results revealed.

But one thing did leak, and that was the fact that the elder was one of the sect's strongest elders, and Crixus was unscathed after the battle.

Immediately this spread many were astonished and found it hard to believe it.

This was because to be called one of the strongest elders, one would have to be a Great Elder, and all Great Elders are experts at the Martial Emperor Realm!

How strong is a Martial Emperor Realm expert?

Forget about Martial Emperors, even a Martial King Realm cultivator is a force to be reckoned with.

First of all, once one steps into the Martial King Realm they would awaken their Spirit Sense, which is an effect of the strengthening of their soul which will be snowballed until the Nascent Soul Realm.

At the same time, they could float for a limited period in the air, which Is called partial flight.

The weakest Martial King Realm cultivator is comparable to ten Grand Martial Realm Cultivators, and a Grand Martial Realm cultivator can destroy a hill of a hundred meters with one full-powered attack.

So most can only imagine how strong a Martial Emperor Realm expert can be.

Having such cultivation, regardless of your age, you would be regarded as a Senior in the practice of the martial way all over the continent.

So the fact that Crixus face such an expert and unscratched meant he was able to withstand and possibly avoid the attack of a Martial Emperor.

And he did all this while being in the Martial King Realm.

So currently, everyone was talking about it and forgot about the upcoming Battle Rankings that will be taking place in the outer court, and coincidentally the inner court.

"Hey did you hear?"

An outer court disciple asked the person beside him.

"About the challenge?"

"Yes and no."

"What do you mean?"

"After news about what happened spread, many factions have been dismissed and fused with the Blood Sword Faction."

"What, really?!" He was astonished by the news.

"Yeah, I just got information from my elder brother who is an inner disciple. It happened today."

"How did it happen?"

"Well, apparently all the other faction leaders were invited to a secret meeting with Crixus and after that many of them submitted, all except three."

"Wow, and which three are those?"

"Who else if not the Heaven Sword Alliance," he replied.

"Oh," the other disciple now understood.

The Heaven Sword Alliance was an alliance forged from the three greatest actions to Stand together against the Blood Sword Faction.

Their leader was the second strongest Elite Disciple after Crixus, and he was also the unofficial disciple of the Sect Leader.

Both he and Crixus are always compared as to who is the stronger one of them. But with the recent turn of events, many are turned to believe that the latter is stronger than the former.

Still, many believe that the Sect Leader's unofficial disciple whose name was Junir was still as powerful as his competitor because he had never revealed his full strength and was a very low-key person, unlike Crixus.

"Anyway, that is all I know of this matter. The Outer Court Ranking Battles are in a few days, I need to get ready."contemporary romance

"You are right, such a matter like this does not involve us weaker disciples. We have no role to play in the grand scheme of things anyway."

Bidding their farewells, they left to train as much as they can in the little time left before the ranking battles.

Even if right now they are unable to involve themselves in the battle between strong figures, they could one day have the power to.

...

Time passed quickly and the members of the Invincible Sword Faction have been pretty low-key during this period.

Especially the members of the faction who were inner disciples. This was because, in the inner court, things were much more heated up as a result of Crixus' return.

But they held fast unto a promise that had been made to them during a meeting with their faction leader, Invincible.

Who said he will give them a sigh after the ranking battles, and that they will know the sign when they see or rather hear of it.

If the sign is enough for them, they can remain members of the Invincible Sword Faction and pledge full allegiance to it.

But if it isn't enough for them, then they can leave freely with no grudges between the faction and them as it would be him, Invincible who was weak.

After hearing those words, many who were contemplating leaving decided to wait and see, because they felt that their leader had a plan.

And it was only a matter of time to see if that plan will help the faction stand strong in the sect or not.

Soon the day of the ranking battles arrived.

The battles were happening in the Outer and the Inner Court respectively. As the Inner Court has its ranking battles every six months, while the Outer Court's was every three months.

As for the Core Disciples, they do not have ranking battles. Rather anyone can challenge those of a higher rank once every six months and the challenged must battle the challenger.

The elders assigned to coordinate the outer court ranking battles arrived at their assigned court and announced.

"Let the Outer Court Rankings Begin!"

"Let the Inner Court Rankings Begin!"

But while both ranking battles were underway something else was announced.

"Crixus is challenging the Sword Tower again!"

At the same time, the Elders were holding a secret meeting to decide how to settle the matter of choosing a Prime Disciple once and for all.

And the first matter they brought up was if they should appoint Arthur as one of the Prime Disciple candidates or not.

Some proposed it should be done as by right they should have made him the Prime Disciple from the onset.

But many disagreed with that suggestion as they had put their eggs in the one basket that was Crixus, so they can not pull out now.

At the same time, they said that Crixus should not be any weaker than Arthur and was a better candidate than all the other disciples.

In the end, they decided to wait and see what will happen.

"If he clears the tower at his current strength then..."
