Top enlightenment at 100 years old Chapter 658 - 639: The Power of a Roar, Words from a Big Shot
Previously on Top enlightenment at 100 years old...
The moment those words landed, Fairy Yuehua's heart quivered sharply.
She never imagined Ji Haoyuan would pick up on the news from her side this fast.
Even more astonishing was his choice to step right into Night Moon Elf Race territory during such a perilously tense period.
No one grasped the implications, the immense pressure, and the risks involved better than Fairy Yuehua right then.
Claiming she felt no emotion in that instant would clearly be a lie.
Meanwhile, the Feixian Sect group, headed by the young man in green, appeared to detect something off.
All of them shifted their eyes toward Fairy Yuehua.
A faint, enigmatic smile played on the young man in green's lips as he spoke deliberately:
"What's going on, Daoist Yuehua? Something noteworthy afoot that you're keeping from us?"
"Daoist Yuehua, got a visitor?"
But right after the young man in green uttered those words, a crisp voice rang out from beyond the hall.
Seconds later, Ji Haoyuan entered, clad in his blue robe.
No blazing immortal radiance swirled around him now, no crushing Dao pressure either.
Rather, he exuded pure tranquility and poise.
His eyes abruptly fixed on the green-robed youths nearby, and with a smile, he addressed Fairy Yuehua:
"Didn't think you'd actually have company, Immortal. Care to make introductions?"
Ji Haoyuan's remark caused the green-robed youths' eyes to narrow faintly.
Fairy Yuehua's features softened into a warm smile.
She gave Ji Haoyuan a courteous nod, replying: "Of course, no issue at all."
With that, she proceeded to detail the green-robed youths' backgrounds and sects to Ji Haoyuan.
She also made sure to mention why they had come.
This prompted Ji Haoyuan's gaze to narrow briefly before he eyed the green-robed youths with a light smile:
"How unfortunate indeed.
I intended to ask Daoist Yuehua and her people to grace my Ten Thousand Laws Sacred Land. Short-term visits to your sect look unlikely.
My regrets to you Feixian Sect Daoists."
His tone stayed casual, and anyone could see it rang hollow.
Next to the young man in green, a grim-faced youth's eyes bulged in fury.
He glared at Ji Haoyuan, voice frosty: "What's that supposed to mean? Trying to poach from our Feixian Sect?"
"Poach?"
Ji Haoyuan shot the grim youth a cold look and sneered dismissively:
"Your Feixian Sect? You think you're worthy?"
"Say that again?"
His words froze the grim youth and the rest in icy rage.
Even the young man in green cast a hostile stare at Ji Haoyuan, tone even: "Nanhua, aren't you? Heard the name.
Know what my Feixian Sect represents?
Not even many in the Upper Realm dare slight us like this."
"Really now?"
Ji Haoyuan rose abruptly.
The whole hall trembled fiercely in response.
A horrifying aura exploded from his form.
The green-robed youths, fierce moments before, paled instantly.
"You..."
"What of it?
A bunch of stray Upper Realm mongrels daring to strut before me?
Think this is your playground?
Today, I'm disrespecting you outright—what then?"
Ji Haoyuan held nothing back.
As he spoke, he advanced steadily on the green-robed youths.
Their faces drained to ashen hues.
At last, the grim youth beside him snapped, roaring in fury.
Instantly, a ray of immortal light burst from his crown.
Within that light, a massive seal materialized, radiating a dreadfully keen edge.
It was a potent Immortal Treasure!
Fairy Yuehua, Saint Monarch Qingyue, and those behind her all shifted uncomfortably.
No one foresaw a mere Feixian Sect member wielding an Immortal Treasure.
Recall that across Star Sky's Holy Lands and mighty clans, forces forging Immortal Treasures numbered barely a handful.
Yet now...
Before further thoughts could form, the grim youth's hovering great seal smashed toward Ji Haoyuan.
"How dare you show such disrespect to my Feixian Sect? Today, I will make you pay the steep price for it!"
The face of the sinister young man turned utterly frigid in that moment.
Boiling killing intent surged openly within his gaze.
Waves of horrifying pressure radiated from the great seal above, seeming powerful enough to pulverize all in its path.
A succession of sharp cracking noises echoed through the air.
The Defense Array in the hall utterly failed to endure the great seal's crushing force, as dense cracks spiderwebbed across it, on the brink of total destruction.
"Roar!"
Right then, Ji Haoyuan, who had stood silently in place, unleashed a thunderous roar.
A fearsome surge of power burst forth instantly.
The great seal descending toward Ji Haoyuan halted abruptly, as though struck by some dreadfully fearsome entity; the immortal light and Dao aura cloaking it shattered in a flash.
