System's Super Sect Chapter 1374 - 1178: The Finals Begin, Identities Exposed

Celestial Sun City.

The long-awaited final competition had finally arrived, and everyone in Celestial Sun City, regardless of age, spontaneously gathered in North City.

The images projected from the Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking were magnified over a hundred times today, making them visible even from a hundred miles away.

When members of the Yun and Yang families arrived in Celestial Sun City via teleportation and witnessed the sky and ground filled with crowds as far as the eye could see, they were stunned.

When had they ever seen such a scene before?

Qin Shan quickly advised the two families, "Be mindful. Today, in Celestial Sun City, any passerby could be at the Divine Profound or Mountain Suppression Realm. Don’t let your perception wander or speak carelessly. Just observe quietly."

Yu Mo chimed in from the side, "While you all need to be cautious in your words and actions, it’s not as serious as Elder Qin suggests. There’s no need for excessive worry."

Yang Zongxian, having experienced the changes in Cangwu City, naturally understood the precautions needed. Wandering perception was a grave taboo, as was talking too much. So when he knew they were going outside Heaven and Earth Lake, he repeatedly warned them seven times and left the less steady members of the Yang Family at home.

"Understood!"

Yang Zongxian responded in agreement.

Father Yun, not feeling at ease, glanced back at the Yun family members still filled with surprise and delight, then nodded, saying, "Please rest assured, Elders. Yun will make sure to restrain my clan. We won’t trouble the two seniors, nor bring trouble to the Immortal Sect."

"Of course, as Elder Yu said, there’s no need for undue worry. Just stick close to me, and no one will trouble you."

Having said that, Qin Shan led the Yun and Yang families towards the competition grounds. However, the people of Celestial Sun City couldn’t help but cast odd glances at the Yun and Yang families, comprised of individuals in their fifties who were only at the Body Refining Realm, the highest among them at the Profound Realm.

Still, upon seeing that they were led by someone from the Immortal Sect, those unrestrained gazes were quickly withdrawn, not daring to look further.

At this moment, with apprehension in their hearts, the Yun and Yang families followed behind Qin Shan and Yu Mo, seeing that even the coachman was at the Divine Profound Realm. Individuals in the Body Refining or Profound Realm could only be found among a few-year-old children and teenagers.

"It’s like a completely different world," Father Yun couldn’t help but mutter in a low voice.

Yang Zongxian echoed, "To be here once, this life is worth it."

Qin Shan smiled gently.

He understood their thoughts.

If he hadn’t joined the Immortal Sect back then, he certainly wouldn’t have imagined such a vast and prosperous world existed beyond Heaven and Earth Lake.

Yu Mo, standing by, smiled and added, "Not to mention you guys, even I didn’t dare to let my eyes wander when I first arrived. Because if I wasn’t looking at the path ahead, I could have directly walked into a Mountain Suppression or even Earth Unrestricted Cultivator. Back then, I was truly afraid walking would lead to my own demise."

This made the Yun and Yang families unable to hold back their laughter, significantly easing their previous anxiety and tension.

...

As time passed, the hour for the competition’s commencement drew nearer.

Amidst the joy and music, more and more spectators gathered at the competition site. Early on, Wen Ping’s arrival immediately stirred quite a commotion.

Because prominent figures always arrive last, they had never seen a single one arriving as early as Wen Ping.

And precisely because Wen Ping came early, those Heaven Unrestricted experts who usually dawdled till the last moment, along with several Six-star Influences, also arrived early by mutual agreement.

After respectfully greeting Wen Ping, everyone’s gaze inevitably fell on Celestial String, who remained seated without greeting anyone.

As fellow Heaven Unrestricted, they knew Celestial String.

There had even been interactions.

However, as time passed and Celestial String became elusive, such interactions dwindled.

Ordinarily, they wouldn’t bother greeting Celestial String, not being very acquainted, and seeing as Celestial String had shown no inclination to greet them, why make a pointless effort?

But today, Celestial String held the identity of an Elder of the Immortal Sect.

"Brother Celestial String, long time no see. Your vitality seems better than ever."

"Brother Celestial String!"

"Brother Celestial String!"

To the greetings from the Heaven Unrestricted Cultivators, Celestial String merely nodded slightly, showing no intention of standing to return the salute.

Though those Heaven Unrestricted cultivators harbored dissatisfaction, they dared not express it openly, as Celestial String’s status had changed.

But turning aside, they cursed inwardly.

Ptui!

If it weren’t for joining the Immortal Sect.

What do you count for?

A mere bottom-tier in the Heaven Unrestricted ranks!

At this moment, as the members of the Visionary Pavilion arrived belatedly and saw their esteemed ancestor, they were all delighted and gathered to pay their respects.

First to Wen Ping.

Then to Celestial String.

"Greetings, Ancestor!"

"Greetings, Ancestor!"

"Greetings, Ancestor!"

"Long time no see, Ancestor. I didn’t expect your vigor to have improved." Pavilion Master Xu Tianshan was especially excited to see Celestial String.

Celestial String lifted Xu Tianshan with a gesture, glanced at the members of the Visionary Pavilion, and then said, "Change the title. From now on, call me Elder Celestial String."

Listening to this, Xu Tianshan was not disappointed; rather, he was overjoyed.

Because this did not mean cutting ties with the Visionary Pavilion,

but rather telling everyone that now the Visionary Pavilion had the protection of the Immortal Sect.

"Yes, El... Elder Celestial String!" Xu Tianshan bowed again, and then, after a wave of Celestial String’s hand, he led the Visionary Pavilion members away.

As for the Long Family, they certainly wouldn’t miss this opportunity either.
