Chapter 266 The Six Hegemons (1/2)

Clouds churned as they swept across the area.

Every outer mountain disciple lifted their heads, reverence in their eyes as they looked towards the Genesis Qi clouds. At the center, Genesis Qi took the shape of a lotus platform where a figure was currently seated.

The figure wore azure robes, and looked like a middle-aged man. However, his hair was entirely white, while his eyes seemed to contain an immeasurable depth as if it was the starry sky, giving off an unfathomable feeling.

An indescribable presence spread from his body, like the deepest pool, like the highest peak, making solemn respect involuntarily rise within anyone who felt it.

All he did was smile slightly as he sat on the lotus platform, while the entire world around him seemed to s.h.i.+ver slightly along with his breathing.

Even though he had already retrained the majority of his presence, the tiny slivers that spread from him still made the numerous outer mountain disciples feel a boundless pressure.

It was as if they were standing before a G.o.d that could not be defied.

This person was the ruler of the current Cangxuan Sect, sect master Qing Yang.

At the same time, he was also the eldest disciple of patriarch Cang Xuan.

Now, however, he was an existence that stood at the apex of Cangxuan Heaven, and could be said to be a hegemon.

Zhou Yuan sighed in amazement at sect master Qing Yang's presence, before turning his gaze towards the sect master's right, where three slightly smaller Genesis Qi lotus platforms could be seen.

On these three platforms also sat three figures that gave off a majestic presence.

As Zhou Yuan focused, the first person to enter his eyes was the tall and slender figure of a gorgeous woman. She was dressed in lotus decorated palace garbs which accentuated her fine curves. Her facial features were also extremely pretty, her fine black hair pulled backwards, giving her a mature and graceful aura.

It was an aura that even a perfect beauty like Yaoyao did not possess, because it required the acc.u.mulation of experience over the years.

Shen Wanjin secretly said beside Zhou Yuan, ”Heh heh, little Yuan bro, that should be the master of Snow Lotus Peak, Liu Lianyi. People call her fairy Lianyi…”

”I've heard that when she was younger, she was a famous great beauty of Cangxuan Heaven. From what I can see, she does live up to her reputation.”

”Snow Lotus Peak is also one of the most popular choices in the Cangxuan Sect. Their male disciples are handsome, while their female disciples are heart-stirringly beautiful. With regards to appearance, they are definitely the best in the Cangxuan Sect.”

Shen Wanjin was practically drooling at this point. Soon after, he regretfully said, ”However, it's unfortunate that I won't be able to enter.”

”Why not?” Zhou Yuan chuckled.

Shen Wanjin touched his fat face as he gloomily said, ”This Snow Lotus Peak master of ours only likes good looking people. Looks is number one in her criteria for recruiting disciples, while talent is number two… I'm afraid that someone like me would be kicked off the moment I step into the place.”

Amazement flooded Zhou Yuan's face, not knowing whether he should laugh or cry. He never imagined a peak master would have such character; recruiting disciples based on their face...

He sighed as he shook his head, before turning his gaze towards the other two lotus platforms. The one next to peak master Lianyi was a elderly white-haired figure. The old man had a pair of white eyebrows that connected in the center, making the expression on his aged face seem somewhat miserable.

Aura rose around the white brow elder, seemingly forming millions of ancient and profound runes. Every rune would make the heart of anyone who saw it beat a little faster.

”His Genesis Rune cultivation… is extremely powerful. Of all the people I've seen over the years, his mastery of Genesis Runes is the closest to grandpa Hei's.” Yaoyao pretty face turned grave as she stared at the white brow elder, while interest flooded her eyes.

From what she could tell, the white brow elder was likely second only to Cang Yuan in Genesis Runes.

Zhou Yuan could not help but be taken aback by her words. He had deeply felt master Cang Yuan's immeasurable strength before, and never imagined that the white brow elder would receive such an a.s.sessment from Yaoyao.

”If I'm not wrong, he should be the master of Spirit Rune Peak, old man Tian Shu.” Said Zhou Yuan in a low voice.

If one were to talk about Genesis Runes, this white brow elder was likely number one in the entire Cangxuan Sect.

”If there's an opportunity, I do hope that I can ask him for some pointers.” Interest could be heard in Yaoyao's tone. There were not many things she was interested in, and Genesis Runes were one of them.

However, her standards were impossibly high due to following Cang Yuan for many years, making it very difficult for her to find someone she could treat were earnesty.

Zhou Yuan let out a bitter laugh. Given the status of these peak masters, how could any ordinary disciple hope to seek guidance from them.

He shook his head as his gaze s.h.i.+fted towards the third lotus platform. Atop it was a metal tower like figure, an elder that was bare all the way down to the waist. However, the elder's body was not hunched over like an old man's. A dark gold l.u.s.ter s.h.i.+ned on his skin, light seemingly swirling on it as if it was made from gold. Faint, mysterious patterns could be seen on the surface of his body.
