War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Chapter 3457 - The Vice Temple Master Of The Main Title Temple

In the Devata Realms, there were only a few who had been confirmed to be gods.

There are only a handful of gods who are known by the others in the Devata Realm. Prior to today, the only known god in the Devata Realms' Heavenly Emperors ranking was Ji You, the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Gift Heaven. After today, there was also Feng Qing Yang, the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven.

Apart from Ru Lai, the Temple Master of the Title Temple in the Pavilion Shaft Heaven, who had been confirmed to be a god, many people were certain there were other gods in the Title Temples as well even though there was no confirmation. Otherwise, how could they maintain order over so many Devata Realms for such a long time?

Since Feng Qing Yang had confirmed he was a god, it was not surprising that Ru Lai, the Great Sun Celestial Emperor and the Temple Master of the Title Temple in the Pavilion Shaft Heaven, challenged Feng Qing Yang to a duel. After all, according to the Title Temple's rules, Heavenly Emperors who had become gods were not allowed to hold onto their positions as Heavenly Emperors.

Gods belonged in Realms of Gods, which were superior to Devata Realms. Accordingly, those who had attained godhood should go to a Realm of Gods instead of staying in a Devata Realm. If a god wanted to stay in a Devata Realm, they had to maintain a low profile. The Title Temple was in charge of overseeing this matter.

"Looks like the Title Temple isn't wasting any time in trying to dethrone Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang as the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven now that it has been confirmed that he's a god. Well, this is to be expected since it's said that this was the main reason for the Title Temple's existence'¦"

There were only a few young geniuses who were privy to the Title Temple's rules; most of them were clueless.

"If that's the case, why didn't the Title Temple take action when Heavenly Ji You of the Heavenly Gift Heaven has been confirmed to be a god for a long time now? He has held onto his position as the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Gift Heaven for such a long time and is even continuously ranked first on the Heavenly Emperors ranking without any consequences'¦"

"That's right! Heavenly Emperor Ji You has long attained godhood; why is he still the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Gift Heaven? On the other hand, the Title Temple is attempting to remove Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang from his position as soon as it's revealed that he has attained godhood! Why is it so unfair?"

"It's not that the Title Temple is deliberately being unfair. I heard from my elders that the Title Temple sent a few gods to challenge Heavenly Emperor Ji You, but none of them could defeat him. Therefore, there's nothing they can do to remove him from his position'¦"

"Is that so? Shouldn't that be a great secret then? How do you know about it?" someone asked skeptically.

"My master is the Heavenly Emperor of the Rain Embodiment Heaven."

"Oh, I apologize. I didn't know you're a disciple of a Heavenly Emperor!"

There were also those among the crowd who had heard of a completely different rumor regarding Ji You, the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Gift Heaven.

"I heard the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Gift Heaven only manages to sit on his throne until now because he has the support of his ancestor who's a supreme powerhouse'¦"

"Really?"

"Well, if that's true, then it's no surprise he's still the Heavenly Emperor of the Heavenly Gift Heaven even after he attained godhood."

"Doesn't this mean if the Heavenly Emperor of Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven attains godhood, the Title Temple will be helpless against him as well? After all, it's a well-known fact that the Qilin clan has a supreme powerhouse supporting them."

There were many theories going around about Ji You, but only one thing remained certain: despite attaining godhood a long time ago, the Title Temple could not remove Ji You from the throne.

"I wonder if the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven will be able to hold onto his title and position?"

"It's a pity we won't be able to witness the fight between him and Temple Master Ru Lai."

"I'm willing to give up 100 years of my cultivation just to watch them fight! I can cultivate again if I lose 100 years of my cultivation, but I won't be able to watch such a fight again in my lifetime!"

"That's right! Although I'm a little more than 800 years old, I'm willing to give up 200 or 300 years of my cultivation just to watch the fight!"

Many people wished they could witness the battle between Feng Qing Yang and Ru Lai. Even if they could catch a god's movements, they still wished they could witness a battle between gods. After all, they wanted to see who would emerge victorious or if any of the opponents would perish. Being able to witness a battle between gods was something they could boast about for a lifetime.

'Master'¦' Duan Ling Tian frowned deeply. Although he was confident about his master's strength, he still could not help but worry. After all, for Ru Lai to challenge his master, Ru Lai must be confident and have some tricks up his sleeve.

'Gautama Buddha is almost invincible in the legends from earth'¦ Moreover, when he challenged master earlier, he was completely calm. This shows his confidence to a certain extent'¦' Many thoughts flitted through Duan Ling Tian's mind at this moment.

This time's Devata Realms' Battle of the Geniuses was destined to be talked about for a long time to come with so many incidents. There was Heavenly Emperor Feng Qing Yang who confirmed his status as a god by displaying his strength when he defeated Heavenly Emperor Zhou Bing Wu who was ranked fifth on the Devata Realms' Heavenly Emperors ranking. Not only that, but Feng Qing Yang also destroyed Heavenly Emperor Situ Zhuqing's Wishful Celestial Wood's clone. Following that, Ru Lai, the Temple Master of the Title Temple in the Pavilion Shaft Heaven, even challenged Feng Qing Yang to a duel to remove Feng Qing Yang from his position as the Heavenly Emperor of the Solitary Destructive Heaven. With that, Ru Lai also inadvertently confirmed that he had also attained godhood. Feng Qing Yang and Ru Lai had stolen the limelight from the young geniuses before the commencement of the Devata Realms' Battle of the Geniuses.

At this time, a thunderous voice resounded in the venue.

"To all the participants, please pay attention. The Devata Realms' Battle of the Geniuses will begin in an hour!"

Following these words, the person who had spoken hovered in the air, overseeing everything, as he introduced himself. "I'm Xu Kong Hai, the Vice Temple Master of the main Title Temple."

Xu Kong Hai was a young man with a head full of white hair; even his sword-like eyebrows were white. He was tall and well built; he had an extraordinarily handsome face.

The location of the main Title Temple remained a mystery to everyone. Some thought it was located in one of the Devata Realms or mundane realms while some were of the opinion that it was located in an independent realm created by a supreme powerhouse. Although the Title Temple branches in the various Devata Realms had a lot of contact with the main Title Temple, none of the members were privy to the location of the main Title Temple. After all, whenever the Temple Masters went to the main Title Temple, they were directly transported there by a special Transportation Formation.

Xu Kong Hai's introduction surprised some of the young geniuses.

"The Vice Temple Master of the main Title Temple?"

"So the rumors are true about the main Title Temple sending someone over to preside over every Devata Realms' Battle of the Geniuses'¦"

"I heard that there are many gods in the main Title Temple'¦ Apparently, even an ordinary elder is on par with a Temple Master of a Title Temple branch. I can only imagine how powerful the Vice Temple Master of the main Title Temple is'¦"

"It's highly likely the Vice Temple Master of the main Title Temple is a god as well'¦"

The young geniuses stared at Xu Kong Hai curiously.

Among the people present, perhaps, only a few Temple Masters of the Title Temple branches had met the mysterious Xu Kong Hai before. Most, if not all, of the Heavenly Emperors had never met Xu Kong Hai before as well. Perhaps, only one or two Heavenly Emperors who had lived for a long time had met him before.

With one hour left to go before the commencement of the Devata Realms' Battle of the Geniuses, the young geniuses calmed down and began to close their eyes to meditate and prepare for the battles ahead of them. After all, their opponents were all the cream of the crop; even the slightest distraction might spell their defeat.

Naturally, there were some young geniuses who remained at ease, chatting with those around them.

At this time, Su Li, who had clearly done his research, said, "Duan Ling Tian, according to the previous Battles of the Geniuses, about 1,000 participants will be disqualified during the first round. Following that, the remaining participants will proceed to the second round. The battles during the second round will continue until only 300 participants are left. The participants who're disqualified during the second round will be given three chances to challenge any of the 300 participants who make it to the third round. This is where the fiercest battles lie in the early rounds. After all, not all of those who're disqualified are weak, and there are bound to be participants who only make it to the third round by relying on others. Therefore, these challenges exist to weed out the weak and to give a chance to the worthy."

"I've heard about this as well." Duan Ling Tian nodded. His master, Feng Qing Yang, had mentioned this to him. He knew the fights would get progressively harder once he entered the third round. The battles would continue to intensify during the fourth round. The fourth round was where the participants' ranking would be determined. Needless to say, the reward for each rank was different; the higher one ranked, the better the reward would be. Those who were eliminated earlier, naturally, would not receive any reward.

An hour passed in just a blink of an eye.

As soon as the time was up, Xu Kong Hai, the Vice Temple Master of the main Title Temple, announced, "I now declare the Devata Realms' Battle of the Geniuses starts now'¦"

Although Xu Kong Hai did not speak very loudly, his voice sounded thunderously loud in the participants' ears.
