The gate of the Fang Family was wide open, all the disciples of the Fang Family took action, and the heads of each hall were extremely busy.
The Sky-Treading Ceremony is not only an opportunity for a heaven-level powerhouse to become famous, it is also an opportunity for the Fang family to show their strength to the outside world.
Early in the morning, people from other forces came to watch the ceremony in an endless stream.
"Brother Fang, which senior of your Fang family has broken through to the heaven-level realm this time?"
Some people were curious to inquire, but the disciple of the Fang family who was responsible for the reception just shook his head and remained silent.
"Brother Fang, what's there to hide? Won't everyone know it when the ceremony starts later? There's no point in keeping it secret."
Listening to the words of the people around him, the expression on the Fang family steward's face remained unchanged, but he was also scolding his mother in his heart, not because he didn't want to tell the other person, but because even he didn't know.
This time, the elders had already ordered the Heaven-Stepping Ceremony, but they had no idea who the protagonist was, and the elders never revealed it at all.
Not only them, it is said that even the hall masters don't know about it. The few hall masters who know about it are also silent. The protagonist is still a secret in their Fang family.
There are no fewer than ten powerful people in the Fang family's prefecture-level Dzogchen, so they can't guess which one it is.
"As expected of the first family in the world of cultivation, with this strength..."
In front of the mountain gate, many high-ranking officials were secretly frightened, because the entire mountain gate was responsible for receiving no less than a hundred Fang family disciples, and the worst among these hundred were middle-level prefecture-level disciples, among whom there were more than 30 late-level prefecture-level disciples.
people.
When Fang Ming went to the southwest to solve the Xiao family's crisis, it was because the Li family had a late prefecture-level strongman that they became a first-rate force. From this, we can see how terrifying the Fang family's background is.
These are only those responsible for reception at the door. After entering the mountain gate, there are still many senior officials of the Fang family who have not yet been dispatched.
"Is the Fang family showing off their fists?"
Outside the mountain gate, a group of people arrived, and the leader, an old man, snorted coldly.
Seeing the appearance of this group of people, the others gave way one after another, because among this group of people, there were five Tianji experts alone.
People from Zongsheng Palace and Huafeng Palace came together.
After what happened yesterday, Zongsheng Palace and Huafeng Palace made no secret of their alliance. Now they came together. Huafeng Palace dispatched two heaven-level powerhouses. One was an old heaven-level powerhouse, and the other was a new one.
Zhou Canghai, the most powerful person in Jintian.
Similarly, there are two palace masters here in the Zongsheng Palace plus the newly promoted heaven-level powerhouse.
"Yesterday, the person from the Zongsheng Palace said that when the new Heavenly Powerhouse of the Fang family is born, the two sides will have a discussion. I didn't expect that it would actually come today."
"Where do you think this lord gets his confidence? The breakthroughs are all within one or two days of each other. Does this lord think that he will definitely win?"
"You don't understand this, right? This Lord Situ has absorbed the charm of the fourteen great avenues. This starting point is much higher than Lord Zhou Canghai of Huafeng Palace."
"Yes, they are both heaven-level experts, but there is still a strength gap between them. Master Situ's strength is much higher than that of the newly promoted heaven-level experts."
The crowd murmured. In Zongsheng Palace, Situ He had a look of pride on his face. In contrast, Zhou Canghai from Huafeng Palace had a slightly embarrassed look on his face.
As a heaven-level powerhouse, he represents the small group of people who have become the top of the cultivation world. He should have accepted congratulations from all forces in the cultivation world, but after him, there was Situ He.
In this way, when people mention the recently promoted heaven-level powerhouse, they will mention him, but they will definitely put him behind Situ He, always being outnumbered by the other party.
However, Huafeng Palace and Zongsheng Palace have already formed an alliance, and he must come to support Zongsheng Palace. It has to be said that among so many newly promoted heaven-level powerhouses in history, he is the most miserable one.
"Haha, the arrival of all of you fellow Taoists has really made our Fang family shine. Please come in quickly."
On the Fang family side, the elders had already received the news, and the seventh elder and the eighth elder came out to greet him in person.
"Brother Fang, which disciple of your Fang family is about to make a breakthrough? At this time, is it time to reveal it?"
"My fellow Taoists will be able to see this with their own eyes when the time comes, so there's no need to worry." The eighth elder of the Fang family made a laugh and excused himself.
"Elder Fang, are you, the Fang family, so confident that that person can successfully enter the heavenly realm?"
Situ He spoke. In his opinion, except for people like him and Zhou Canghai who have obtained the Qiyun of the Tenth Avenue or above, no one can guarantee that they can successfully break through to the heaven-level realm. How many earth-level Dzogchen practitioners are there?
Attempts to break through all ended in failure.
"Of course I still have this confidence. Fellow Taoist Situ, don't worry."
Although Situ He is a newly promoted person who is both a heaven-level powerhouse, he can still be regarded as his equal.
In fact, this is the case in the cultivation world. Seniority is not determined by age, but by strength. Of course, those within three generations of blood relatives are excluded.
"Since the Fang family is so confident, I can rest assured that I won't be able to find anyone to discuss with for a while."
A sneer appeared on Situ He's face. Naturally, their visit to the Zongsheng Palace this time was not to cheer up the Fang family, but to attend yesterday's appointment.
Yesterday, he proposed to compete with the newly promoted heaven-level experts of the Fang family, and the Fang family did not refuse. Of course, in order to make it less obvious, although the entire cultivation world also knew that there was a conflict between the Zongsheng Palace and the Fang family.
The overt and covert fights were fierce, but on the surface they still wanted to maintain harmony, so they also roped in Zhou Canghai from Huafeng Palace.
In the name of the outside world, the three newly promoted heaven-level experts are competing with each other.
Three heaven-level powerhouses were born one day apart. It is normal for the three of them to learn from each other. After all, no one wants their light to be obscured by the other two, and they all want to be mentioned first.
In this case, when people mention them later, they will say this: In such-and-such a month, so-and-so and two other heaven-level experts broke through each other.
Everyone wants to be so-and-so, not the other two.
"Brother Situ's request will definitely be met." The eighth elder of the Fang family replied meaningfully.
…
At ten o'clock in the morning, almost all the people who came to watch the ceremony arrived, and they all came to the square of the Fang family's ancestral temple.
"These are all sculptures of heaven-level powerhouses from all generations of the Fang family."
"One, two, three, four, five... with so many sculptures, the number of heaven-level powerhouses from the Fang family is really shocking."
Even though these sculptures of heaven-level powerhouses represent the past and history of the Fang family, everyone understands that sometimes history represents heritage. With so many heaven-level powerhouses, what a profound heritage they must leave behind.
The elders of the Fang family chose this location for the ceremony deliberately, in order to let other forces know how deep the Fang family's heritage is.
In the square, in addition to the people watching the ceremony, there is also a mountain peak, a small peak with a height of 100 meters. This mountain peak is not here originally, but was moved here by the Fang family ancestor himself and using the Fang family's formation.
Moving mountains and seas may sound a bit exaggerated, but all the peaks in the Fang Family Mountain Gate were originally arranged on the formation and could be moved. Even these peaks themselves are a very powerful formation combination, but people who know this do not
There are many, only the elders in the Fang family know about it.
"The viewing time is almost here, why hasn't the protagonist shown up yet?"
"Yeah, the Fang family is too mysterious this time."
"Actually, no matter how mysterious it is, it is of no use. There are only a few strong people at the prefecture level of the Fang family, and they have long been familiar to the outside world, that is, one of those people."
The crowd was talking, and at Zongsheng Palace and Huafeng Palace, Situ He also had a look of disdain on his face. The more mysterious the Fang family became, the less confident they seemed.
From the perspective of Situ He and the other palace masters of the Zongsheng Palace, the Fang family must have had no choice but to come up with a temporary Heaven-Taking Ceremony to deal with the persecution of their Zongsheng Palace, in order to maintain the face of the largest family.
The so-called protagonist may still be on the shelves in a hurry, and it is hard to say whether he can break through and succeed.
If the breakthrough is not successful, then the Fang family will lose face this time, and it will be the best opportunity for Zongsheng Palace to rise to the top.
Given the ebb and flow of the situation, it is not impossible for the Zongsheng Palace to surpass the Fang family.
Sometimes, the number one and number two are not just competing for top combat power, because both the Fang family and Zongsheng Palace know very well that it is impossible for the two of them to go to full-scale war. Since they will not go to full-scale war, how to judge
Who is first and who is second?
At this time, it depends on the prestige of the two families in the cultivation world. This is the same as the United States and Russia. In fact, there is no conclusion on which of the two countries has the stronger military strength, because it is impossible for the two countries to truly go to war.
Therefore, this time we have to look at influence, and where influence comes from, it is naturally manifested in other places, such as wars in local areas or other countries. Of course, this refers to military strength.
The same situation exists between the Fang Family and the Zongsheng Palace at the moment. It is impossible for the two sides to really start a war, and their top combat capabilities are about the same. If the Zongsheng Palace wants to have more influence than the Fang Family in the cultivation world, it needs to suppress the Fang Family in some aspects.
And the appearance of Situ He is the best opportunity now. If the operation is good, it is not impossible for their Zongsheng Palace to have more influence in the cultivation world than the Fang family.
…
At this moment, the elders of the Fang family have all gathered under the mountain peak. Although no one dares to cause trouble in the Fang family, when breaking through to the heaven level, no one is allowed to be disturbed. It is always right to be cautious.
Seeing that the Fang family was so cautious, many heaven-level experts who were watching the ceremony narrowed their eyes slightly. The fact that the elders of the Fang family were so cautious could only mean that the protagonist this time was very important to the Fang family.
A heaven-level powerhouse is indeed important to the Fang family, but not to this level.
This discovery made the senior officials of these forces become serious, and in this atmosphere, a figure appeared on the rocks on the top of the mountain.
