Just as everyone watching was wondering who would be the winner, Yu Chenfeng stepped forward and announced his withdrawal from the competition. This caught everyone off guard. Yu Chenfeng then explained, "I have exhausted my spiritual energy in the battle just now and am seriously injured. It will take at least ten days to half a month for me to fully recover. So, in order not to waste everyone's time, I have no choice but to withdraw from the competition. Now, my cousin and the reclusive Shi family's divine son will compete for first place."
But Yu Chenfeng thought to himself, "With my cousin's terrifying strength, first place is a sure thing. Even if I recover quickly, I'll still have to admit defeat when facing my cousin. I don't want to be humiliated. Besides, if my cousin gets first place, it's also the Jade Clan's first place. I can just relax and enjoy myself. Why not?"
Yuan Zhexian frowned when he heard Yu Chenfeng announce his surrender.
"This guy is definitely trying to slack off. He's just dumping all this on me."
At this moment, the two giant battle platforms merged into one even larger battle platform. Yuan Zhexian immediately flew straight to the center of the battle platform, and at the same time, Shi An, the divine son of the reclusive Shi family, also flew onto the battle platform.
Then Shi An very humbly said to Yuan Zhe Xian, who was cupping his hands in greeting, "Yuan Shen Zi, I am very grateful to you."
Yuan Zhexian looked at Shi An and said, "Shi An? What a nice name, but your surname isn't Shi, is it?"
Upon hearing this, Shi An's eyes flashed with a hint of panic, but he quickly recovered and said, "Oh~ what does Yuan Shenzi mean by that?"
"Are all the people of the Celestial Clan cowards hiding their true colors?" Yuan Zhexian said calmly.
Shi An was also shocked. He then waved his hand, and a semi-circular sound barrier appeared beside the two of them.
Shi An asked with a cold look in his eyes, "How did you know I am a member of the Celestial Clan?"
"I had the pleasure of experiencing your divine techniques some time ago," Yuan Zhexian said calmly.
"Where did you learn this from? And how do you know about the existence of my Celestial Clan?" Shi An asked in confusion.
"Tell me first, who exactly are you? Why are you in Taiyu Heaven? Then I'll tell you what I know." Yuan Zhexian didn't reply but instead asked Shi An.
Shi An pondered for a moment and then said, "My mother is the head of the Shi family, so I am the divine child of the Shi family. My father is the supreme elder of the Shangcang clan, so I am also the first rank of the Shangcang clan. My name is Shangcang Shi An."
After hearing the answer from the heavens, Yuan Zhexian said, "So that's how it is."
"Then, Yuan Shenzi, could you tell me how you know about the Shang Cang Clan, and how you know that I am a member of the Shang Cang Clan?" Shang Cang Shi An immediately asked.
Yuan Zhexian immediately replied, "How do I know about the Celestial Clan? It's simple. There are secrets from the beginning of time that a divine son of the Yuan Clan cannot know. After you failed to contend with our clan for the Taiyuan Heaven, you hid for many years. Now that the Golden Age has arrived, would you not emerge? Since you will emerge, our two clans will definitely clash sometime. So is it strange that I know of the Celestial Clan's existence?"
Shang Cang Shi An also showed an expression of understanding, and then continued to ask: "Then who was this person from my clan that you met before? Where did you meet him?"
Yuan Zhexian replied with three words indifferently: "Tianlan Realm".
"What?"
Even Shang Cang Shi An couldn't believe it. Although he had been staying with the Shi family recently, he was aware of what was happening in the Tianlan Realm. Their Shang Cang clan had sent some elders at the Great Saint Realm to the lower realm. Although this elder had destroyed his own body, he was still a Great Saint Realm expert, definitely not someone who hadn't even reached the Saint Realm level.
"You actually didn't perish?" Shang Cang Shi An asked in confusion.
"Fallen? The person in this world who could make me fall has probably not been born yet. No! It should be said that there will never be anyone who can make me fall," Yuan Zhexian said with a sneer.
"You're truly arrogant. But you are quite powerful, managing to escape from a Great Saint Realm expert," Shang Cang Shi An said coldly.
"Escaped? You're wrong, you were killed by me." Yuan Zhexian said calmly, as if killing a Great Saint Realm expert was nothing to him.
"How is this possible? How could you possibly kill a Great Saint Realm elder of my clan? You must be lying. Yes, you must be lying!" Shang Cang Shi'an protested in disbelief.
"You're just as ignorant as that Lu family prodigy, thinking nothing is possible. Nothing is impossible for me. Alright, I've learned what I wanted to know. You're not qualified for the Flower of Eternity," Yuan Zhexian said sarcastically.
"You actually know about the Flower of Eternity?" Shang Cang Shi An said in surprise.
The reason Shang Cang Shi An stayed in Tai Yu Tian during this time was to obtain the Eternal Flower, which was also a decree given to him by the Shang Cang Clan. With his strength at the eighth level of the Reincarnation Realm, Shang Cang Shi An thought it would be a piece of cake, but he didn't expect that a Yuan Clan Divine Child would appear midway.
Seeing that Yuan Zhexian remained silent, Shang Cang Shi'an immediately said, "Alright, let me have a good feel for the strength of the Yuan Clan's divine son."
After speaking of the heavens, his aura surged, and he slid his left hand from left to right and his right hand from bottom to top, creating a white cross-shaped beam of light. Then, he pushed both hands forward, sending the white cross-shaped beam of light straight toward Yuan Zhexian.
Upon seeing this, Yuan Zhexian remained motionless, closed his eyes, and then opened them again. His double pupils, gleaming like stars, appeared. Then, a purple ray of light shot from his two pupils.
The white cross-shaped beam of light and the double pupil ray collided and exploded violently. The white cross-shaped beam of light was then directly pierced by the terrifying power of the double pupil ray and continued to shoot towards the heavens.
