Just as Gao Yan was about to kill Tian Gui and Luo Sha, Luo Sha shouted "Wait!"
"You two were so stubborn just now, are you planning to beg for mercy now?"
Gao Yan looked at them with a half-smile.
"Junior sister, it's nothing more than death, why bother begging this petty thief!" Tian Gui raised his head and glared angrily at Gao Yan.
"I'll grant your wish!"
As he spoke, Gao Yan unleashed the Great Destruction Technique. Instantly, an extremely powerful destructive force engulfed the Heavenly Ghost, pulverizing his physical body, soul, and even the Great Dao into dust.
Subsequently, Gao Yan used his Devouring Divine Power to completely devour it, thus strengthening his Devouring Dao Fruit.
"don't want!"
Rakshasa cried out in terror. When she saw the Heavenly Ghost being strangled, she was so frightened that she fell to the ground. When faced with death, cultivators whose cultivation was sealed were no better than ordinary people!
"It's your turn!"
Gao Yan's gaze fell on Rakshasa.
Neither of these two are good people. In particular, the True Demon Sect needs a large number of vengeful spirits to refine magic weapons. Therefore, whether it is a Heavenly Ghost or a Rakshasa, the number of cultivators who have died at their hands is at least eight or ten thousand!
"Don't kill me, I'm willing to submit!"
Rakshasa got up and kowtowed to Gao Yan, begging for mercy, but deep in her eyes was a resentment that was hard to dispel. She convinced herself that she was kowtowing and begging for mercy not because she was afraid of death, but because she did not want the True Demon Sect's lineage to be cut off.
After casting out an Insightful Eye and seeing the level of friendliness, Gao Yan smiled.
Immediately, he unleashed a devastating spell, pulverizing the Rakshasa into dust. Her friendship level was now -54, so how could Gao Yan possibly let her go?
Besides, the other party committed so many killings, so dying at his hands was deserved!
After eliminating these two remnants of the True Demon Sect.
Gao Yan left my world, and then threw out two Void Transformation Puppets, ordering them to kill the group of Nascent Soul cultivators from the True Demon Sect.
From the memories of the Heavenly Demon and the Rakshasa, Gao Yan learned of their hiding place.
Several months passed in the blink of an eye.
With the help of the cultivation badge, Gao Yan's cultivation level is getting closer and closer to the peak of the ninth level of the Void Realm.
Because Xiahou Meng and Xiao Yanran were both in seclusion, he would occasionally sneak off to the Immortal City in Zhongzhou for a few days.
Just when he thought the good days would continue...
Qin Xiangxue brought a message.
"Your Highness, are you going to participate in this Prodigy Competition?" Qin Xiangxue asked.
"I'm not going!"
Gao Yan resolutely refused. He was living a very comfortable life now, so why would he participate in that damned Prodigy Competition?
However, the Five Great Holy Lands of Zhongzhou, together with the Imperial Clan and the Twelve First-Class Sects, jointly organized the Heavenly Pride Competition, and there were no restrictions on the participants; anyone could participate.
Moreover, this competition for prodigies is divided into the Nascent Soul Prodigy Competition, the Deity Transformation Prodigy Competition, and the Void Realm Prodigy Competition. The registration rules are that Nascent Soul cultivators cannot be older than 1,000 years old, Deity Transformation cultivators cannot be older than 2,000 years old, and Void Realm cultivators cannot be older than 5,000 years old.
Moreover, the prizes are said to be quite generous.
For a time, cultivators in the five regions who were less than five thousand years old became restless.
"Why, Your Highness?"
Qin Xiangxue looked at Gao Yan with some confusion. If he could achieve a good ranking in this competition, he would gain both fame and profit. She really couldn't understand why her holy son wasn't interested!
"There's no reason why, I just don't want to participate!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Yan squinted his eyes.
In the following days, everyone in the sect was talking about this matter.
Then, Sect Master Shangguan Shang sent someone to summon Gao Yan to the Sacred Heart Hall.
Suddenly, Gao Yan had a bad feeling. Could it be that the sect leader wanted him to participate in the competition?
When Gao Yan arrived at the Sacred Heart Temple, he found that he was the last to arrive.
Fortunately, Shangguan Shang has not arrived yet.
After greeting the others, he closed his eyes to rest, but in reality, he was communicating with Xiahou Meng telepathically.
A short while later.
Shangguan Shang arrived with two vice sect leaders.
Without wasting words, he went straight to the point: "You must already know about the Heavenly Pride Competition that's been all over the news lately, right?"
The crowd responded, "Yes!"
Shangguan Shang continued, "The nine patriarchs attach great importance to this matter, and it is best for everyone who meets the requirements to participate!"
"Sect Master, why is this?" Gao Yan couldn't help but ask.
Shangguan Shang said in a deep voice, "This matter involves a secret. Once we leave the Sacred Heart Palace, we must not reveal it to anyone!"
Everyone nodded quickly.
"Because this Prodigy Competition involves the Great Emperor Academy!"
Before anyone could ask what the Great Emperor Academy meant, Shangguan Shang continued, "As you all know, the Great Emperor disappeared for 100,000 years, but recently he reappeared and ordered the five holy lands and the imperial clan to join forces to build the Great Emperor Academy. Once the Great Emperor Academy opens, the Great Emperor himself will come to the academy to give lectures!"
Upon hearing this, apart from Gao Yan, Xiahou Jian and the others became excited.
Xiahou Jian couldn't help but ask, "Sect Master, are the students of the Great Emperor Academy selected from those who performed outstandingly in this Heavenly Pride Competition?"
Shangguan Shang shook his head: "We haven't received a definite answer, but this Prodigy Competition will be watched by Great Emperors. Perhaps if you perform exceptionally well, even if you don't get a good ranking, you can still enter the Great Emperor Academy. However, if I'm not mistaken, the five holy lands and imperial clans in the Central Continent all have quotas for direct entry into the Great Emperor Academy!"
"Sect Master, is it alright if we don't participate?" Gao Yan asked.
If anyone else had asked this, Shangguan Shang would have already lost his temper, but Gao Yan is more tolerant, though his expression was rather serious: "Gao Yan, you must participate; this is what the ancestors require!"
