Master of Untold Daos

The top of the bridge had words on it, Sky-crossing Bridge.

The end of the bridge had a staircase leading to a platform housing a bronze three-legged round cauldron with two handles and intricate ancient designs.

He knew what he needed had to be laid inside, Are the untold Daos there?

It was the crux of his success in entering the Transcending realm.

Chen Ming saw Ninth Crown Prince around, as well as Jade Lake’s people. He didn’t see any sign of Jin Xiangyu, and as for Void, they set up camp.

None were interested in testing themselves. Their main focus was to bring the offender down.

Moon Palace’s actions were unclear, and Crownless Assembly... uh, nevermind them. He was clueless where they were but he could bet a nickel they’d show up in the direst of moments.

There was a sudden racket with Moon Palace’s Crown Prince at the center. He was a Celestial Immortal yet lowered his cultivation to enter.

Chen Ming’s heart sank, Come on! Do you have to go to such lengths?

Must you do this all for me?

Unreasonable!

Ninth smiled to Chen Ming, “What’s wrong? You never had the nerve to appear, only show off here and there, yet you come out now?”

Chen Ming disinclined to reply to this muscle-bound thug when Yan Shengxiao took a slow walk next to him from the fiends camp, “Is killing the offender forbidden for fiends?”

Why is this woman helping me?

Ninth snorted, “A coward like him who knows nothing but using empty words?”

Yan Shengxiao disdained a smile, “Yet I find it hard to believe you have what it takes to protect yourself. And here you are joining the hunt, a gilded spear. Looks nice from afar yet caves under a mere finger from Star Dragon Crown Prince.”

She set her sights on Chen Ming’s spice bag, and deep rancor seethed within.

Moon Palace’s Crown Prince mediated, “We all have the same purpose. Won’t fighting each other give the offender an opening to exploit?”

Ninth flitted his eyes to him, “You must be the silver gilded spear, walking around without a care.”

Ninth walked towards Chen Ming, “I just wanted to see what makes this coward so great.”

The Earth Immortal crowd split, giving him a direct line for Chen Ming. It was plain as day he was looking for a fight.

Chen Ming had an epiphany, So that’s what she wants. Perfect time to try out my new moves.

Moon Palace’s Crown Prince tried to unwind the tension. He came to kill the offender and even dropped his cultivation for that. Yet instead of diffusing it, Star Dragon Crown Prince and Ninth were about to jump each other.

Jin Xiangyu wore a veil as she stepped behind him, “Let them spar, it won’t matter. There are only rumors about Star Dragon Crown Prince and we need to be clear to our side’s power. It is of great importance if we are to face the offender.”

“If they are equal, the losses will be on both sides. Won’t the offender take advantage of it?”

“We’re not the only ones here. Crownless Assembly pitted against us four Domains for so long they are bound to have their own prodigies. Two fewer powers won’t affect the big picture.”

He nodded.

Just that Void and Crownless Assembly’s men, uh, were also all in for watching a good show.

The more chaos the easier it was to lurk.

Chen Ming saw silence setting in in a manner of moments, They want to test me.

The cultivators didn’t shy from making a mountain out of a molehill, “In one corner we have Heavenly Court’s greatest talent, Ninth Crown Prince, and on the other, fiends’ Star Dragon, a once in tens of thousands of years appearance. Who’s better I wonder?”

“It will be a monumental fight!”

“The greatest immortal talent and the greatest fiend talent are now fighting!”

“They are both famous, yet no one is certain of their power. This will all become clear soon.”

Chen Ming eyed Ninth, It’s good I just finished the Allheaven Stellar Array. I now have the perfect target to try it on.

Ninth charged. Sacred Mountain wasn’t your ordinary star. Every inch of its land was so tough that it was akin to an immortal metal used in immortal equipment.

Ninth punched, to which Chen Ming swayed passed it and sent a swiping kick at his fist. The two clashed and continued trading blows.

Fists flew like a storm, sending booming sounds with each strike. The audience was slack-jawed.

“Aren’t they spiritual cultivators?”

“How can they?”

“It looks more like peak Earth Immortal hardship cultivators. But even they aren’t that strong!”

Fists flew like rain, shaking the weaker Earth Immortals. And this was a fight between spiritual cultivators.

There was no need to mention the power of their flesh. Each reached a high mastery in this field.

Ninth’s fist brimmed with might and Chen Ming’s wasn’t any lesser, filled with the power of a mountain.

When they met, explosions echoed.

Everyone could tell the two had deep vitality. Even peak Earth Immortal hardship cultivators paled in comparison, “They’re vitality is higher than ours!”

“It’s as big as an ocean!”

“Such power can upturn seas!”

Moon Palace’s Crown Prince smiled, “Fiends’ legend spoke of Star Dragon being of unmatched power in body. This proves it.”

Jin Xiangyu smiled, “How do you fair?”

He spoke without hesitation, “I do believe I am a cut above, since we have the Moon Laurel to cultivate the Moon body.”

As the fight went on, Ninth’s fingers were covered in talons and wings unfolded on his back, wings of flame. The two fought like wild animals.

Even with the immortal metal-like hardness of the ground, it split with each of their clashes into deep scars.

P.S.: I have made the grave mistake of miss translating Crownless Assembly to Headless Assembly. Please forgive my slip-up.
