Whether it was Jingnian Temple, Cihang Jingzhai, Yin Gui Sect, or martial arts masters like Song Que, they all mobilized because of the news from Luoyang.
The three most renowned grandmasters in the world are no exception.
As martial artists, they have an insatiable thirst for the path beyond the Grandmaster level.
Now that we have received such a groundbreaking message, how can we remain unmoved and sit as still as Mount Tai?
The excitement I felt was beyond words.
In the Sui Dynasty, beyond the Great Wall, in Goguryeo, and even in the Western Regions and Southeast Asia, countless people longed to hear the teachings of the Broken Ones, even though many of them had no idea what the Broken Void meant.
But there are always some sects with a long history whose founders had interacted with the previous generations of broken ones, leaving behind fragments of words. Now, when these words are discovered, they are truly awe-inspiring.
It turns out that the matter of breaking through the void truly exists; the patriarch did not deceive us, his descendants.
Previously, such records were regarded as myths and legends.
As these people traveled towards Luoyang, the news of the shattered void and the Celestial Realm beneath it gradually spread and became known to the world.
Acquired, Innate, Grandmaster, Great Grandmaster, Celestial Realm, and Shattering the Void: these are the six realms of martial arts.
This was even acknowledged by the three schools of Taoism, Buddhism, and Demonism.
Now, no one dared to question whether the shattering of the void was a complete fabrication.
Everyone who comes to Luoyang can see that figure in the sky, and even the most powerful and influential people will feel a sense of longing for it.
Breaking through the void is a term used in martial arts, but in the common people and the imperial court, it is more often referred to as attaining enlightenment and ascending to the ranks of immortals.
Ancient legends suddenly appear before our eyes, how can people not be excited and fascinated?
The gathering of martial arts masters from all over the world in Luoyang should have posed a great challenge to the city's security. However, the hermit of the mountains and seas sat cross-legged in the sky, and when an evildoer appeared, a golden light struck down, instantly annihilating him and causing his soul to be scattered.
Those who had intended to do evil but hadn't had a chance to act were now filled with fear and were even more grateful that they had been too slow. Otherwise... they might have ended up like those guys, being turned into mincemeat by Shan Hai Sanren with a single blow.
Everyone understood that Cao Ya, the "Recluse of Mountains and Seas," was a righteous person.
At the same time, he couldn't help but yearn for the shattering of the void.
Only today did I realize that shattering the void is like being a god or demon!
Only those evil spirits and heretics felt a jolt in their hearts and cried out that something was wrong.
The demonic masters, including "Evil King" Shi Zhixuan, "Empress of the Underworld" Zhu Yuyan, and "Demon Commander" Zhao Deyan, all had their brows furrowed and looked worried.
But they were unwilling to leave and stop listening to Shan Hai Sanren's teachings.
Since Shan Hai Sanren did not object to their arrival, it means that Shan Hai Sanren does not actually discriminate against the Demonic Sect; he simply cannot stand evil people who do evil.
They suppressed their unease and waited anxiously.
In this tense yet exciting atmosphere, March flew by.
Three months later.
The entire city of Luoyang was deserted as everyone flocked to open spaces, craning their necks to gaze up at the figure sitting cross-legged in the sky.
The best locations nearby were either occupied by royalty or martial arts masters.
Let alone ordinary people, even those who were not high-ranking martial arts practitioners or government officials could only watch longingly from the sidelines.
Although the "Recluse of Mountains and Seas" can be seen from all over Luoyang, there is a huge difference between those within a mile or two and those more than ten miles away.
Some people even come in the middle of the night to grab a spot.
This made Cao Ya have to be careful when replacing the phantom, and he had to be quick and nimble so that no one would notice.
He didn't rush to give a speech; he waited until the sun was high in the sky, clear and cloudless, before slowly opening his eyes.
Because they were too far away, most people didn't notice that Cao Ya had opened her eyes and continued to wait anxiously.
The few remaining grandmasters and great grandmasters finally realized what was happening, and they all became awe-inspiring, clasping their hands in a respectful salute.
"Greetings to 'Shan Hai Sanren'!"
The actions of these masters startled everyone, who, as if waking from a dream, hurriedly bowed and paid their respects.
No one knelt down, because "Shan Hai Sanren" had stated several times that he disliked this custom.
No one dared to go against the wishes of Shan Hai Sanren.
Cao Ya calmly surveyed the scene. The three grandmasters, the Heavenly Blade, the Evil King, the Yin Empress, the Demon General, the Four Holy Monks, and countless other well-known figures appeared in Luoyang City.
He even saw the emperor and important officials of the Sui Dynasty.
“The three-month period has passed, and I shall now preach,” Cao Ya said calmly.
But as soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the vast city of Luoyang could hear him, regardless of distance.
Countless people are grateful that Shan Hai Sanren is indeed a chivalrous person.
Cao Ya ignored these words and said in a calm tone:
"You should all have heard of the six realms of martial arts: Acquired, Innate, Grandmaster, Great Grandmaster, Celestial Being, and Shattering the Void. In the world today, the Great Grandmaster is the pinnacle, and it is extremely difficult to find even a Celestial Being, let alone a Shatterer."
Below, Fan Qinghui's heart stirred upon hearing this, and she said with a reverent expression:
"May I ask, sir, do you come from the Immortal Realm?"
As soon as the words were spoken, countless people held their breath; this was a question they all desperately wanted to know the answer to.
Song Que, nicknamed "Heavenly Blade," glanced at Fan Qinghui with an inscrutable expression, then sighed softly to himself.
Upon arriving in Luoyang and meeting Cao Ya, the "Recluse of Mountains and Seas," he abandoned his idea of drawing his sword to challenge him to a duel.
Shan Hai Sanren is no match for him!
Song Que did not feel discouraged; on the contrary, he felt a surge of determination.
Shattering the void?
I, Song Que, have never been inferior to anyone in my life, and I am determined to catch up with Shan Hai Sanren!
Cao Ya calmly said:
"There is no immortal realm in the world, and the world after it was shattered is definitely not as wonderful as you imagine."
Shan Hai Sanren is indeed from the Immortal Realm... Perhaps it's not called the Immortal Realm, but it doesn't matter... Anyway, it's confirmed that Shan Hai Sanren is not a being from this realm... Otherwise, how could he talk about the world after it was shattered? Without understanding, how could he speak recklessly?
There was a hint of admiration and a hint of awe in everyone's eyes.
Having descended from the upper realm, Shan Hai Sanren is far beyond the reach of ordinary broken beings!
Admittedly, they were right about that.
Cao Ya shook his head repeatedly. According to his perception, if the world after the shattering was indeed the Great World after Ascension, with his current strength, he probably shouldn't even think about going down to the lower realm.
"Evil King" Shi Zhixuan looked up at Shan Hai Sanren, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.
This opportunity to challenge the broken is extremely rare.
But he also understood perfectly well that going alone would be suicide.
I must bring others along... Tian Dao, Sanren, Wu Zun, Yi Jian Da Shi, and others are all here. They should be no different from me, eager to challenge Shan Hai Sanren... Use actual perception to peer into the Broken... How much can one understand simply by listening to lectures?
The "Evil King" used telepathy to contact martial artists who caught his eye, including the three grandmasters, Heavenly Blade, Empress Yin, Demon General, Fan Qinghui, Liaokong, and the four holy monks.
All beings above the Grandmaster level received an invitation from the Evil King.
They were amazed by the Evil King's audacity, intimidated by the mysterious nature of the Mountain and Sea Hermit, and were also deeply moved.
While they were still hesitating, they heard Shan Hai Sanren chuckle softly, which shook their hearts.
