Chapter 1777: A Game of Mystics (1)


    The Knightly Dao Cmity became a widespread, widely discussed topic across the stars. The rambunctious talks and activity recently had an-unprecedented aftermath, especially as the Blessed-Sentinel, Observing Chronicle, and Fortuitous Gazette-received constant updates and a great addition of-upgraded subscribers.


    The Knightly Dao Cmity, the title bestowed to the-event that left three Sages crippled, a rumored Sage-assassin killed, and three Sages missing, among those-missing Sages was Sage Skytouch whosest location-was investigated yet there was no decisive information-of her whereabouts. As the news outlet tasked themselves with discovering new information, an-urgent update was issued that brought in an extraordinary amount of new subscribers and upgraded-Gold Editions, and that was none other than the truth-about Skytouch!


    She was in seclusion and had been for thirty thousand-years. Supposedly, she suffered a disastrous loss during-her cultivation trying to condense a True Breath of a-Sage and experienced a fierce bacsh. Her cultivation-base experienced Cultivation Deviation, and her-experience left her cultivation in a state of decline and-degradation!


    It was spected by the Fortuitous Gazette specifically-that her Sage strength was no more. She barely possessed enough strength to rival a World Emperor!


    This discovery was enough to create massive seismic-activity among the stars. If Skytouch had suffered-grievous injuries, failing to retain her Sage-level of-strength, then who in the living hell was at the-Knightly Dao Pavilion on that day?!


    Yet the most incredible news was the elevation in the-Outer-Creation Kings Ranking of the new foreigner, the-Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint, the Ascendant Emperor of-Neo-Dawn, the one known as Wei Wuyin! He had initially started as the 73rd Ranker, but that rapidly-changed as he jumped 26th, and then the 3rd!


    What was already an unprecedentedly rapid shift in-rankings exceeding anything in the past was only-bing more exaggerated, yet today, he climbed-from 3rd to 2nd! Going from 3rd to 2nd was more-difficult than going from 73rd to 3rd!!


    The shock waster unanimously given widespread-approval; the incredible event between Wei Wuyin and-the Seven Utmost Tower''s Zenith Creation Tower''s Dao-Enforcer, a genuine Supreme Sage issuing out an Edict,-was as legendary as one could feasibly imagine.


    "Fu#k off!"


    "Make me!"


    Young cultivators were emting his tyrannical-demeanor within a few hours of the news traversing-across the stars. Wei Wuyin hadn''t acted like that-Supreme Sage Dao Enforcer, speaking inly and-directly through the Dark Void, allowing individuals to-not only capture his image of rescuing Shang Wanqing-from her captor from afar with Spiritual Jades but also-the domineering tone of his voice!


    The most embarrassing part was that the Zenith Creation Tower did nothing! This was a severe loss of-face for the entire Seven Utmost Towers. However, the-expected unity of the gxy against this foreigner-hadn''t happened as most praised, avidly debated, and-emted his actions with great zeal.


    The various news outlets ate fabulously well within the-shortest amount of time!


    However, the Knightly Dao Cmity wasn''t over yet;-Alchemic Saint Neo-Dawn had issued an open invitation to a game of Mystics that he was setting up,-including a mysterious figure that was said to have-severely injured or killed a Sage, his cultivation-rumored to be ONLY at the Heavenly Saint Phase, an-unbelievable spection!


    One of the foundations of this game was the fate of-Shang Wanqing, the Knightly Dao Pavilion''s greatest-treasure that left many Sages with greedy hearts and-salivating tongues. In actuality, the majority of schrs-debated that the Knightly Dao Cmity was caused-threefold. The first was undeniably Shang Wanqing''s-Catalyst Body, the second was the Continent of the First-Knight''s Iplete World Soul, and the third was-none other than theplex rtionships of the Sages.


    If these schrs didn''t think the Sages were targeted-here, they would have failed to live up to their titles as-intellectuals! After all, all three of the Sages were-reportedly injured, nearly crippled. If not for the-foreigner who decided to interfere against the prophecy, a truly fearless being, the Knightly Dao-Cmity would have caused the undeniable destruction-of the Knightly Dao Pavilion on their most celebrated-day.


    It would have been a tragedy.


    However, seeing how this foreigner was uncaring of an-Alchemic Edict issued by the Seven Utmost Towers, his-casual dismissal of the prophecy was to be expected.


    Was this the power of the Supreme Sage? They could-ignore the notion of so-called trends and fate?!


    The open invitation was a three-yer game from the-onset. There was the mysterious cultivator Su Yi, the-Dazzling Jewel Alchemic Saint, and the Neo-Dawn-Alchemic Saint. The Dazzling Jewel Alchemic Saint was-an unexpected addition, but she had issued a challenge-before the foreigner had even opened it to the public.


    The conditions and wagers of the Mystics were yet to-be clearly defined, but as the list of those participating-announced, the explosion was only fueled by further-talks!


    The Grand Seer Rippledark!


    The Angelic Peach Alchemic Saint, Tianshi Ya!


    The Inversetoxin Alchemic Saint, Guo Heng!


    Andstly, and most shockingly, that wasn''t expected-to be publicly known, was the participation of a Sage-from Shadow Veil!


    Since a game of Mystics had a cut-off of seven yers-within the Utmost Purity Gxy, a gxy-specific rule,-the Sage from Shadow Veil, the notorious assassin and-criminal racketeering organization had to publicly-announce their participation before the final slot was-taken! While they left out specific details, no one-challenged them for it.


    However, this was already looking to be an exciting-game with far-reaching implications to the outsider-observer! Unbeknownst to them the game earlier that-had led to failure was pouring into the next!


    The Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint, rumored to be an Exalted Worldly Saint Alchemist and Supreme Sage! A-supremely tyrannical foreigner!


    Su Yi, the mysterious cultivator with unprecedented-battle power, was rumored to have strong connections-with a Supreme Sage!


    Dazzling Jewel Alchemic Saint, an Exalted Worldly-Alchemic Saint of the Growth Zone! Not only was she-an independent Alchemist apart from the Seven Utmost-Towers, but she was also the 7th Ranker of the Seven-Rising Heavens Alchemic Rankings!


    The Grand Seer Rippledark was a Grand Seer from the-Seers of the Night! Just the illustrious title of ''Grand-Seer'' was enough to signify his extraordinary status-and might!


    The Angelic Peach Alchemic Saint, Tianshi Ya, the 3rd-Ranker of the Seven Rising Heavens Alchemic Rankings, and 3rd Floor Tower Master of the Zenith-Creation Tower! Clearly, her participation had a lot to-do with the significant loss of face for the Zenith-Creation Tower after Wei Wuyin''s two iconic one-liners-that few dared to utter to them!


    The Inversetoxin Alchemic Saint, Guo Heng, 5th Ranker-of the Seven Rising Heavens Alchemic Rankings, and-4th Floor Tower Master of the Zenith Refinement-Tower!


    And of course, the mysterious Sage from Shadow Veil!


    With four Exalted Worldly Alchemic Saints, two Sage-levelbatants, and a sinister Grand Seer, this-game of Mystics instantly garnered significant gctic-attention. Those aware of the intricate details of those-participating and how they all connected paid even-greater attention!


    Only one question remained on everyone''s lips! With-such a gctic game about to ur, what was going to-be the wager? While Wei Wuyin and Su Yi had a rather-open wager of Shang Wanqing''s freedom to decide on-her fate, a strange one that baffled quite a few-individuals, but considering she was a Catalyst Body-that had just been saved, including Wei Wuyin''s calling-her ''his'', in the eyes of many, this was Su Yi and Wei-Wuyin fighting to possess her.


    There were even stories circting of Su Yi as the-mysterious gallivanting hero out to rescue Shang-Wanqing from the clutches of the foreigner with vile-intentions. Additionally, on the opposite end of the-spectrum, there were stories of Wei Wuyin defying fate-to ensure that his love was safe from cmity,-exhausting his cultivation base to overturn a prophecy.


    Both were mighty tales for the youth.


    The one thing that everyone knew: every loser at this-level of Mystics would be leaving behind several pounds-of their fatty flesh for the victor to enjoy!!


    The three days agreed upon by Su Yi and Wei Wuyin-came and went across the gxy like a roaring fire.


    During these days, numerous Star Bridges prated-into the Armored Boon Ster Region with tremendous-fanfare from all over, carrying characters that were-bound to be more legendary than thest!


    The sight was wondrously astonishing to witness, a-celestial sign of prestigious characters and


    extraordinary wealth!


    At the edge of the Armored Boon Ster Region, a-magnificent silver pce was affixed atop a tiny-sized-continent, floating naturally in the Dark Void. There-was a lone figure dressed in ck martial artist attire-draped over silver alchemical robes, a unique mixture-and designpletely foreign to the Utmost Purity-Gxy, standing on a balcony overlooking the starry-vastness with a pair of starry eyes.


    Wei Wuyin''s Alchemic Stars of Transcendent Purity-glinted with great fervor as his hands clenched against-the railing. Why exactly?


    The weak and recovering Bai Xiu, left in this state after-concocting three of the four transcendent-quality-Mystic-Rank products, was brimming with strange-dazed energy as she watched the stars, sitting on his-left shoulder.


    "It''sing! I feel it, Master!"


    Earlier, outside the Utmost Purity Gxy, Bai Xiu had,-in a strange stupor, mentioned very vaguely that they-were approaching something. The closer they got to the-Utmost Purity Gxy, the greater that feeling was-stirred.


    Unfortunately, Wei Wuyin didn''t have time to search-for the cause of that feeling from her, especially given-how expansive the gxy was, and how his status as a-foreigner meant his every move was going to be watched. If he suddenly vanished, there was no telling-the amount of Sages, Enlightened Sages, and Supreme-Sages that would be on the rampant search for him.


    As a foreigner, especially one who had conquered three-gxies prior, he couldn''t simply vanish.@@novelbin@@


    However, now there was no longer a need to take the-risk. Whatever Bai Xiu felt…wasing here! Coming-closer!
