I apologize, I am late. I wish for your understanding.

Bright laughter traveled over. It was apologetic and helpless.
Everyone was startled and looked over without thinking.
From afar, they saw the appearance of a pure white phoenix that clouded part of the sky. It was graceful and pure as its wings generated a sky full of blood.
On the phoenix’s back stood a man. He wore a robe as white as snow and he stood with his hands behind his back. Like a descended immortal, he was graceful and divine.
Especially since he was standing on the back of a phoenix, he looked even more unparalleled and righteous.

What the f!ck! This is too much! He came on the back of a half-blooded phoenix!


There are many Heaven’s Favorites who came. Some came flying with their swords, some came riding cranes… we have seen many different treasures with the ability to fly. But compared to the way he is entering, they are weak!


Yeah, who is this person? How did he manage to tame a half-blooded phoenix? He is far too lucky.


A purely white phoenix with Flame of Purity around its body… it’s beautiful! I am jealous.

Everyone spoke, their eyes revealed much envy.
What could they do? The way Ling Xian entered was far too out of the world. Even out of all the Heaven’s Favorites who are attending, this was the best way to enter!
To be stepping on a phoenix and to arrive in such a manner was unheard up.
That was a half-blooded phoenix!
Out of everyone in the world, how many people can tame one? Yet Ling Xian had arrived on top of one. Why wouldn’t everyone be jealous?
Some female cultivators were shooting stars out of their eyes. They were jealous of Ling Xian’s stance and jealous that he had such a rare half-blooded phoenix.
The three elders revealed much exclamation and jealousy.
Just then, Ling Xian came closer. He looked over to the elders and paid his respect,
Everyone, I am late. I wonder if you can let this go just once?


I…

The leading elder paused,
If you came a few seconds earlier, I would let you in. but, I already announced the entrance is closing. If I let you go, it’s a little inappropriate.

Hearing this, Ling Xian shook his head and bitterly smiled. He didn’t want to be late. He had been heading over here ever since he got out of the grave.
Based on his estimation, not only was he going to arrive on time, he had a month of time to spare. But who could predict that he had wrongly entered into a maze while on his way, which trapped him for an entire month?
What could he do? Nobody knew who made that maze. There were over 9,000 arrays inside. Even with Ling Xian’s grandmaster level of array abilities, it took a whole month for him to escape.
He felt very helpless. But what drives him even crazier is that he gained nothing from that place. He honestly entered by mistake and wasted more than a month’s time.
Ling Xian was helpless against that and could only admit that he was unlucky.

However…

Ling Xian smiled bitterly. The elder in white stroke his beard,
If you can pass my test, I can let you in.


Oh? Please do speak of it.

Ling Xian’s eyes brightened. He had two aims in coming here. For one, he wanted to find the Nirvana Fountain and transform his Qi. Secondly, he wanted to meet the different people and fight against all Heaven’s Favorites.
These two targets both required him to enter the Palace of Heaven’s Favorite. Therefore, he took this seriously and there was light in his eyes.

Very easy. You can do whatever you want – if you can force me to retreat one step within 10 rebuttals, I will let you in.

The elder grinned. His white robe fluttered in the wind threateningly.
Hearing this, Ling Xian smiled.
He could tell that this elder was a powerhouse at the peak of the original level with great foundations. At the very least, he was a Heaven’s Favorite who reached two different undefeatable realms.
But to him, forcing him to retreat one step was not difficult. Therefore, he smiled,
Then I won’t hold back.


Don’t worry, do everything you can.

The elder chuckled mindlessly,
I suggest you unleash your best techniques. Don’t treat me lightly.


I understand.

Ling Xian smiled and formed fists with his hands. He didn’t call out the Disorder Conquering Fists, he merely formed fists.
The elder chuckled at this.
Young man, you better use a technique or a weapon. Your physique alone isn’t going to force me to retreat, not even one step.


Why don’t we try?
Ling Xian smiled. His confidence lit up the universe.

I won’t say more. Then let’s go.

The elder brandished his hand, gesturing for the people behind him to retreat. Then, he rooted himself onto the ground with his hands behind his back. He was as heavy as a mountain.

I apologize.

Ling Xian smiled. His right fist pushed forward. It was slow but violent!
At once, the elder’s expression changed. He lost his normal composure.
He knew that if this punch lands, he will be forced to retreat or even be wounded. Therefore, his own hand began to emit light and he greeted Ling Xian’s fist.
HOMM!
After an earth splitting rumble with terrifying vibrations, the clouds in the sky shattered.
Everyone was astounded and then they saw an unbelievable scene.
After moments of stalemate against Ling Xian, the elder could no longer resist and stepped back one step.
Everyone howled at this.

He retreated! The elder of the Palace of Heaven’s Favourite was forced to retreat!


How powerful. Just who is this person? How did he manage to force an elder to step back?


He is the elder of the Palace of Heaven’s Favorite. He is insane in capabilities. Yet this person used one fist to drive him back. How strong did he have to be to do that?

Everyone reacted in awe.
Even the elder himself was astounded. He hid the fist he used to defend against Ling Xian. His old eyes were full of surprise.

You retreated.
Ling Xian smiled and paid his respect.

Not bad. It’s rare to be so collected.

The elder looked at Ling Xian and exclaimed,
What a monster. Your physique is at the peak of the original level!

Those words stunned everyone. They didn’t think Ling Xian’s physique would be so powerful. But then they realized something.

No wonder the elder was forced to retreat. So it’s not too surprising.


Yeah, on the contrary, the elder is the strong one. He fought face on with a physique at the peak of the original level and he merely retreated one step. Unbelievable.


He is the elder of the Palace of Heaven’s Favorite after all. He truly is strong.

Everyone resumed their chitchat. Their voices were full of compliments but instead of talking about Ling Xian, they praised the elder.

Only one step?

Hearing the discussion down there, Ling Xian shook his head. That punch didn’t just force the elder to retreat one step. However, he didn’t say anything.
The elder bitterly grinned, a little embarrassed.
Then, he sighed a long sigh and revealed the arm he used to defend against Ling Xian.
His arm was shaking uncontrollably and was now a mush of blood and flesh. One could even see the white bone beneath it.
At once, the area silenced.
