The commotion once again alarmed the disciples of the Taiyi Sacred Land, who had only just calmed down.
"This is...?"
"It's the other eight Quasi-Holy Sons!"
"They've all returned to the Sacred Land together!"
"Hiss, eight Quasi-Holy Sons returning together, something big is about to happen!"
"Could it be..."
"Is the battle for the Holy Son about to commence?"
"Is our Taiyi Sacred Land's true Holy Son about to appear?"
Countless disciples came to witness the return of the eight.
They discussed wildly.
Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from the eight, their faces showed shock.
How many years has it been!
Besides Xu Chuan, the eight Quasi-Holy Sons of the Taiyi Sacred Land had long been established.
They had been out training and rarely returned to the Sacred Land.
Many newly joined disciples had never even seen them before!
Standing on the warship, the elegant young man was the top-ranked Quasi-Holy Son, Du Hengyu!
He had gained fame thirty years ago.
He was the most outstanding figure in the entire Taiyi Sacred Land at that time!
His talent was so high that thirty years ago, he had already reached the peak of the Tongtian realm.
Then he traveled Xuan Tian for thirty years, and no one knew what his current cultivation level was!
The second-ranked Quasi-Holy Son was named Zhang Tong, who gained fame after Du Hengyu.
His talent was extremely strong, not inferior to Du Hengyu!
After becoming a Quasi-Holy Son, he retreated to the ancient battlefield and had been diligently cultivating.
The third Quasi-Holy Son was Shi Longxiang.
He possessed natural great strength, and a phantom of a dragon and elephant protected him at birth, thus earning him the name Shi Longxiang!
He had been cultivating under a half-emperor expert since he was young and rarely showed himself!
The fourth Quasi-Holy Son, Xu Jia.
Born into a noble imperial family, his talent was so high that he possessed the potential of an emperor!
He had been secretly cultivated by his family, preparing him for the position of Taiyi Sacred Lord.
The fifth Quasi-Holy Son, Li Hongxi.
He was found in the depths of the boundless sea by the peak master of Ziyang Peak, Li Wuji. His background was unknown, so Li Wuji raised him as his own son.
After becoming a Quasi-Holy Son, he had been searching for his origins in the boundless sea.
The sixth Quasi-Holy Son, Tian Jun.
His background was quite peculiar.
He was originally a hostage sent by the Northern Region's Ice Empire, but he changed his fate through his heaven-defying talent and obtained the position of Taiyi Quasi-Holy Son.
Then he returned to the Ice Empire and led troops to establish his own power.
The seventh Quasi-Holy Son, Liu Zhenliang.
He was originally a coffin bearer from a village, but due to his unique Yin-deficiency physique, he was brought back to the Taiyi Sacred Land by the peak master of Chuyang Peak for cultivation.
Then, in a short period, he defeated a group of competitors and became the seventh Quasi-Holy Son!
The eighth Quasi-Holy Son, Jiang Chengyun.
He was a descendant of the Human Emperor of the Central Region. Due to the decline of the Central Region Human Emperor, he was forced to come to the Eastern Region and join the Taiyi Sacred Land.
Due to his Human Emperor bloodline and his talent, he became the eighth Quasi-Holy Son.
These eight, without exception, possessed terrifying talent and profound backgrounds.
Unlike Xu Chuan, who rose from humble beginnings.
Before Xu Chuan, any one of these eight had the hope of becoming the true Holy Son of the Taiyi Sacred Land.
Each of them had their own chosen candidate for Holy Son.
But after Xu Chuan rose to prominence.
Their chosen candidates began to change.
His talent was peerless, his physique supreme.
He was invincible in the Eastern Region, suppressing an era.
Not long after, he directly annihilated an ancient clan that had existed for countless years.
Such achievements, in any era, were enough to be dazzling!
Now, Xu Chuan was the number one candidate in their hearts to become the Taiyi Holy Son!
However, the position of Holy Son was not decided by them.
Everything depended on their own strength!
Nine peerless heavenly prodigies vying for supremacy.
Such a scene was unprecedented!
All the disciples of the Taiyi Sacred Land were filled with excitement!
They eagerly awaited this unprecedented competition!
Who would win the position of Holy Son?
It would soon be revealed!
At that time, under the leadership of this Holy Son, their Taiyi Sacred Land would reach new heights!
These eight Quasi-Holy Sons did not linger there for long.
They all headed towards the main hall of Taiyi Peak.
Leaving behind a crowd of onlookers excitedly discussing.
Their words were full of anticipation.
The news of the nine Quasi-Holy Sons of the Taiyi Sacred Land gathering quickly spread throughout the entire Eastern Region.
Countless forces sent people to investigate whether the news was true.
Countless onlookers also rushed towards the Taiyi Sacred Land.
Hoping to witness this grand occasion with their own eyes!
...
On Zhenyang Peak, Xu Chuan, who had just emerged from seclusion, also witnessed this scene.
He concealed his aura and fell into deep thought.
"It seems it's time to compete for the position of Holy Son!"
Xu Chuan murmured to himself.
He knew very well.
For such a long time, the Taiyi Sacred Lord had not initiated the Holy Son competition, entirely to give him more time to grow.
So that Xu Chuan wouldn't just be a participant in the Holy Son battle.
Now, his strength had reached a terrifying height.
He had gained the recognition of Xuan Sa.
That was why he had recalled all the Quasi-Holy Sons.
The position of Holy Son would be decided among these nine people!
"I wonder how strong these eight Quasi-Holy Sons are?"
Xu Chuan was curious.
If only looking at cultivation realms, Xu Chuan's realm was undoubtedly the lowest among the nine Quasi-Holy Sons.
Because he had risen too quickly!
Among the others, Jiang Chengyun, the eighth Quasi-Holy Son, had been a Quasi-Holy Son for a full five years.
Du Hengyu, the longest, had been thirty years!
His cultivation must be much higher than his!
However, in terms of strength, Xu Chuan was confident that he was the strongest!
Especially after learning the ancient secret art of "Three Heads Six Arms"!
His true strength had reached a new level!
"The position of Holy Son must be mine!"
Xu Chuan clenched his fists and said confidently.
From the beginning, his short-term goal was this position of Holy Son.
He had made ample preparations for this day!
Now, the time had come, and he would undoubtedly win!
Just as Xu Chuan made up his mind, Su Miaoyin arrived.
Seeing him emerge from seclusion, she quickly said.
"Senior Brother Xu, the Taiyi Sacred Lord sent a message asking you to go to Taiyi Peak after your seclusion!"
During this time, she had been waiting for Xu Chuan on Zhenyang Peak.
She had intended to leave the Taiyi Sacred Land and return to the Yaochi Sacred Land to cultivate after Xu Chuan emerged from seclusion.
But after hearing the news of the impending Holy Son battle today.
She decided to stay a little longer.
She wanted to witness Xu Chuan become the Taiyi Holy Son with her own eyes!
She wanted to be the first to offer Xu Chuan her most sincere blessings!
This was her unique romance!
Hearing this, Xu Chuan smiled and said, "I know, I'll go later."
"You stay here at Zhenyang Peak with peace of mind, and I'll personally escort you back to Yaochi in a while!"
"It's time to meet your master."
After speaking, Xu Chuan gently stroked her hair.
"Mmm!"
Su Miaoyin nodded shyly, her face flushed.
How could she not understand Xu Chuan's words?
This was Xu Chuan's promise to her.
After he truly became the Taiyi Holy Son, he would personally go to the Yaochi Sacred Land to provide a perfect explanation for their identities!
It would be like meeting parents.
Her parents had already passed away, and the only one who could be considered her parent now was her master!
