    Chapter 6038: Chu Feng Arrives!


    “Don’t worry. It’s a mere Seven Realms Sacred Mansion. I am here. They won’t dare to touch you,” the Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster said.


    “I know, grandfather. I never saw the dogshit Seven Realms Sacred Mansion as a threat. Grandfather, what’s this ce? Why does it look like a dueling ring?” the Redsoul Sect’s young master asked his grandfather.


    “It <i>is</i> a dueling ring. I thought we were going to have a showdown with the present-era small fry, but we were put on different dueling rings. Later, we thought that formation beasts woulde out of the spirit formation gate, and we’d have to subdue them, but your group appeared instead.


    “The number of people you have tallied with the number above the spirit formation gate, but I’m still not sure what’s going on.” The Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster scratched his head in confusion.


    The face of the Redsoul Sect’s young master suddenly darkened. “Oh no, grandfather.”


    “What is it?” The Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster was perplexed.


    “We might just be their opponents.” The Redsoul Sect’s young master nced at Jie Tianran and the others, who were standing at the other side of their dueling ring.


    “Nonsense. You’re a bunch of juniors. No matter how weak the present-era cultivators are, there’s no way God’s Era would assign you as their opponent. That isn’t fair.” The Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster shook his head.


    “Grandfather...”


    The Redsoul Sect’s young master wanted to exin the situation, but a deafening rumble suddenly echoed from above.


    <i>Boom!</i>


    Alongside the rumble, a light pir descended from the humongous spirit formation gate above. Itnded at the center of the dueling ring, looking like a beautiful blossoming flower of light that spanned over a thousand meters wide.


    Upon closer look, one could see that it was a bundle of energy reminiscent of blood or me, and it was shrouded in ayer of spirit power. This bundle of energy resembled the red aura contained in the Redsoul Sect’s young master’s g, but there was a clear difference too.


    The red aura in the g was lesser but much more condensed.


    The spirit power and energy quickly fused, and the energy started erupting like a volcano. The energy gushed into the sky before scattering outward to everyone present, imbuing everyone like armor. It had happened so fast that no one had time to react.


    “This energy...”


    The crowd instinctively nced at the dueling ring, sensing a resonance between it and the energy imbued onto them. It was a hint that this energy was necessary for them to advance to the crystal tform.


    Jie Tianran looked at the juniors at the opposite end of the dueling ring and murmured, “Are these juniors our opponents?”


    He found it hard to believe too.


    He sensed that the energy was only imbued on the surface of their bodies, whereas the spirit power was embedded into them. The spirit power harnessed formidable protective prowess; it was a barrier that even he couldn’t breach.


    The energy imbued on the surface of their body, as well as the red aura resonating with the dueling ring, could be stolen, but not the spirit power. This suggested that this fight was not meant to be fatal, and the spirit power was there to protect them.


    Just then, a light pir containing words emerged from the crystal tform.


    “The red aura is the key to activating Heaven Stairway. The more concentrated the red aura, the more formidable the Heaven Stairway. Those from the younger generation and older generation may steal from each other.”


    Those words were huge, so everyone could see them.


    The crowd widened their eyes in disbelief.


    The Redsoul Sect’s young master was right; it was a showdown between the younger generation and the older generation!


    This was madness!


    What was God’s Era thinking,ing up with such a ridiculous challenge?


    Before the crowd could make sense of the situation, the light pir containing words receded into the crystal tform, and the barrier dividing the dueling ring vanished. Nothing was standing between the older generation and the younger generation anymore.


    <i>Boom!</i>


    A powerful surge of spirit power gushed out like a tsunami. It was so fast that it enveloped all the juniors in an instant.


    Jie Tianran had made a move!


    “Jie Tianran, do you have no sense of shame? How can you make a move on the juniors?!”


    The Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster and the Ancient Era’s experts criticized Jie Tianran.


    Jie Tianran paid them no heed.


    He retracted his spirit power, siphoning the juniors’ red auras with it. As the spirit power containing the red auras passed the center of the dueling ring, the red auras suddenly broke free and rose into the sky.


    Just as Jie Tianran thought that he had failed, the red auras erupted again. This time, it was only shared among the older generation cultivators; the juniors received nothing at all.


    It was not an equal distribution among the older generation cultivators too; it was split in proportion to one’s cultivation, so Jie Tianran received the most concentrated red aura.


    Not even the Heavenly Dome Immortal Sect’s sectmaster or the Divine Body Heavenly Mansion’s Mansion Master couldpete with him.


    The g behind the Redsoul Sect’s young master dissipated, and his veil dropped to the ground, revealing his average-looking face. He turned to his grandfather with a look of helplessness and despair. “Grandfather...”


    The Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster was infuriated. His burning killing intent could be felt even across the barrier.


    “Jie Tianran, I didn’t think you would stoop so low as to attack the juniors. A beast like you deserves to be ripped into shreds!” the Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster spat through clenched jaws.


    However, Jie Tianran remained perfectlyposed. Without looking at the Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster, he coldly replied, “Such are the rules; I’m merely doing what the rules are asking. Why don’t you demand an exnation from God’s Era if you feel so indignant?”


    That further fanned the rage of the Ancient Era’s experts.


    Just then, the Ancient Era dueling ring’s spirit formation gate also started to stir. It was undergoing the same changes as the Present Era dueling ring’s spirit formation gate.


    The spirit formation gate opened, and a person stepped out.


    Everyone inside and outside God’s Era widened their eyes.


    This person was carrying a g containing the words ‘Present Era’. The g was shrouded in a red aura too, but unlike the g of the Redsoul Sect’s young master, the red aura enveloped the entire g, and it was many times more concentrated.


    Even Jie Tianran’s red aura, despite having just received a huge bunch of it, paled inparison to the red aura in the g.


    And the gbearer was a figure whom everyone had heard about—Chu Feng!
