Chapter 2: Yunlan Sect on Yunlan Mountain, Dragons and Phoenixes Struggle Within the Yunlan Sect
There is a square on Yunlan Mountain, which is a landmark building of Yunlan Mountain.
The plaza is constructed from gray-white boulders, which, according to legend, are objects from outer space that fell into Yunlan Mountain, resembling a platform bestowed by heaven.
Therefore, the Yunlan Sect established a rule that each generation of disciples must carve steps from the mountain stone to create this road leading directly to the foot of Yunlan Mountain, symbolizing that the Yunlan Sect is a divinely ordained ancestral temple, and that man-made roads are a means to pass down the lineage from generation to generation, ensuring its eternal existence.
Well, if I hadn't transmigrated here, according to the original timeline, this divinely bestowed platform and man-made ladder would have been blasted to smithereens by the Buddha's Wrath Lotus...
The Yunlan Sect is also about to be destroyed.
This whole "divine gift" nonsense is utter rubbish! Don't believe in these convenient methods...
Yun Congxin was filled with emotion as he looked at the Yunlan Sect disciples sitting cross-legged in the square, densely packed like a white forest, guarding the stone tablet in the center of the square. The stone tablet was engraved with the names of the Yunlan Sect leaders of all generations, starting with Yun Potian and ending with Yun Yun, also densely packed, yet high above.
Looking further back, there is a semicircle of towering pine trees around the perimeter of the square, with elegant cottages built on top for VIP seating.
Yun Congxin narrowed his eyes. Although his soul power was relatively weak, he could still sense many extraordinary auras within. He figured that prominent figures from the Yunlan Sect and the Imperial Capital must be there observing the ceremony.
"A thousand-year-old towering pine, an immortal Yunlan Sect." Yun Congxin murmured to himself as he looked up at the two Grand Masters who were locked in fierce combat in the square.
Nalan Yanran! Xiao Yan!
Yun Congxin narrowed his eyes. He sensed countless soul forces recklessly probing the two in the plaza. Out of caution, his soul force remained obediently within his brow, refraining from emerging to investigate the two locked in combat.
"That...it must be Huo Huo..." Yun Congxin was a little excited. Xiao Yan was, in a way, his idol. Even now, he still remembered the compliment Potato once gave Xiao Yan in the narration:
He gritted his teeth, remained stubborn, and transformed himself from a caterpillar into a butterfly!
Yun Congxin likes this kind of protagonist. A protagonist should be like Xiao Yan, doing things that ordinary people can't do and acting in ways that others dare not do!
This is what a man should do!
"Bang!"
With a muffled thud, the fierce and dangerous close-quarters combat came to an end.
Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran retreated to opposite sides, each landing in a different location. Yun Congxin saw numerous fist and foot marks on Nalan Yanran's Dou Qi armor, while Xiao Yan's Dou Qi armor also bore many sword marks and cracks. Clearly, neither of them had gained an advantage in the close-quarters combat just now.
"The probing should be over soon, and I guess the next move will be a direct confrontation..." Yun Congxin, who possessed the memories of Yunshan, muttered to himself.
He tried hard to recall, but he couldn't remember the process of the three-year agreement at all. He only remembered that Xiao Yan won in the end and Nalan Yanran broke the agreement.
Oh right, and there's also Elder Yunling Hongwen, who can't stand losing.
Suddenly, the uproar of nearly a thousand Yunlan Sect disciples interrupted Yun Congxin's distraction. He quickly focused his attention and looked at the square.
He saw that Nalan Yanran had removed her hairband at some point, and her beautiful hair moved on its own without wind, smooth like a black cloak being blown by the wind.
"Using Pantene, you're that confident?"
Knowing the outcome of this three-year agreement, Yun Congxin remained completely calm. He chuckled to himself as he watched Nalan Yanran slowly ascend into the sky, seemingly taking flight in broad daylight, aided by her wind-attribute battle qi.
The nearly one thousand Yunlan Sect disciples present were very excited. They whispered among themselves, and although they tried to keep their voices down, the noise was still deafening.
"Xiao Yan, let's settle this!"
Nalan Yanran's voice silenced the clamor in the room. She pointed her sword at Xiao Yan, and a blazing light gathered at the tip of the sword, so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at it.
Yun Congxin frowned and recalled for a moment, finding a similar move in Yun Shan's memories. He muttered uncertainly, "Extreme Wind: Sunset Radiance?"
The longsword was drawn, but it moved very slowly, creating ripples—uncondensed energy, dissipated battle qi.
Yun Congxin chuckled. Looking at things from different angles, his thoughts were indeed quite different.
While reading the book, he felt that Nalan Yanran's ultimate move was extremely oppressive, as suffocating as a slowly setting sun, and that she was a formidable enemy that Xiao Yan needed to use his trump cards to deal with.
Looking back now, with Yunshan's memories in mind, Nalan Yanran's move seems rather forced. She managed to turn the "Extreme Wind: Sunset Radiance" into a chaotic mess. Although both were trump cards, Nalan Yanran clearly didn't fight as hard as Xiao Yan did when cultivating the Flame Dividing Wave Ruler and the miniature Buddha's Fury Lotus.
"If Nalan Yanran had gone to the Monster Beast Mountain Range to cultivate desperately like Xiao Yan, she probably would have been able to force out Xiao Yan's Flame Dividing Wave Ruler, and wouldn't have been defeated by the small Buddha's Fury Lotus, which only had the power of a peak Xuan-level weapon..." Yun Congxin thought.
If the Wind's Ultimate Sunset Radiance lost to the Flame Devouring Wave Ruler, it could be considered a worthy defeat. But to lose to a small-scale Buddha's Wrath Lotus is truly somewhat shameful...
Unconsciously, Yun Congxin still adopted the perspective of the Yunlan Sect Master and began to comment on the fighting skills of both sides, inevitably feeling indignant on behalf of Feng Zhiji Luo Riyao.
On the other side, Xiao Yan had already condensed a small Buddha's Fury Lotus. He said softly, "Go, Buddha's Fury... Lotus!"
Look how skillfully Xiao Yan uses his fighting techniques! Both are at the peak of the Profound Rank, but Xiao Yan's Buddha's Fury Lotus is far more dangerous to use, yet he manages to condense it and unleash its full power! And then look at Nalan Yanran...sigh...
Yun Congxin sighed, and suddenly an idea popped into his mind: "Why don't we abolish Nalan Yanran's position as the young sect leader? Anyway, it hasn't been written on that stone tablet yet."
One thought leads to understanding of all thoughts; even the collision between the Buddha's Wrathful Lotus and the Sunset Radiance in mid-air did not interrupt Yun Congxin's train of thought.
"Yun Yun is not a good sect leader. She is more like a thug than a sect leader. Let's just remove her from the position and let her gain more experience first."
The moment the two violent energies came into contact, they produced a thunderous roar. The Buddha's Wrath Lotus spun and disintegrated, releasing the violent and terrifying energy hidden within!
Nalan Yanran's longsword shattered, and the full power of Sunset Radiance was revealed. The two collided in mid-air, instantly creating a mushroom cloud!
A fierce wind howled, and the light was dazzling. Ordinary Yunlan Sect disciples could not see clearly, but Yun Congxin could see it exceptionally clearly.
The dissipating Sunset Radiance was no match for the Buddha's Wrath Lotus. The Buddha's Wrath Lotus only offered a slight resistance before overwhelming Sunset Radiance's light with overwhelming force!
Like heavenly fire descending, or a sickle reaping wheat, the shockwave swept towards Nalan Yanran and the Yunlan Sect disciples!
"Oh right, and this Yun Ling too, that bastard is practically here to ruin me! Once this is over, I need to hurry up and demote that bastard!" Yun Congxin thought to himself as he pointed.
The protective shields set up by the Yunlan Sect disciples immediately became impregnable, and the aftershocks passed by without harming any innocent bystanders.
This square, this heaven-sent platform, is also safe and sound under the protection of Yun Congxin!
