C915 Dawnbringers Saintess!

In the valley, a Dawnbringers girl in a white pleated dress, her skin as white as snow, captured the gaze of many onlookers.

The Terror Claws sect nestled among the mountains suddenly shone brightly.

The illumination wasn't just a figment of their imagination; within a ten-mile radius, the light had genuinely intensified.

As the saintess of the Dawnbringers, Canli brought radiance to any place she graced with her presence.

This was the magic of her innate bloodline.

"Canli! She's here too?"

"The Dawnbringers see her as a precious gem. How could they let her face danger?"

"By the Ancestor God, why has this lady come here?"

The moment Canli made her appearance, numerous Otherkin powerhouses from the extraterrestrial Star River felt a stirring within them. Their eyes converged on her, filled with secret amazement.

The Dawnbringers are a formidable race from the depths of the Star River, and Canli is their current saintess.

Born with the seventh-level bloodline of the Dawnbringers, Canli possessed a multitude of mystical innate talents.

Each Dawnbringer lived for at least a thousand years, their maturation slow, only reaching adulthood at two hundred.

At one hundred and seventy, Canli was still a slender young girl, not yet an adult.

"Canli!"

Zhongli Dapan cracked a meaningful smile as he gazed toward the Devil Palace. "The Devil Palace has been after her life for ages. In the extraterrestrial Star River, their experts have relentlessly tried every trick in the book to kill her. And now, within the Everlands?"

Zhou You, too, wore an unusual expression of concern. "Chen Liangquan sure knows how to give us a shock."

Then, in that instant!

Yu Yuan felt a resonance within the Altar of Rebirth inside him. It was as though he could see a similar, yet distinct, Altar of Rebirth within the Dawnbringers girl.

Yu Yuan closed his eyes and envisioned a dazzling altar, like the crystallization of countless sources of light, nestled beneath Canli's gently rising chest.

"The Altar of Rebirth!"

He jolted, recalling the words of the Second Bane, Blood Moon.

Blood Moon had claimed that the most gifted among the Otherkin, deep in the starry expanse, are born with their own Altar of Rebirth.

Every individual among the Otherkin born with an Altar of Rebirth is considered a once-in-a-generation prodigy within their ranks.

The leader of the Blood Fiend Clan, a branch of the Sky Fiend, was one such individual, born with an Altar of Rebirth within him.

The Otherkin who joined the ranks of the Terror Claws were also the cream of the crop from various regions, numbering in the thousands.

Yet, Yu Yuan's Altar of Rebirth had never resonated particularly strongly, except with Wen Lu, who was of mixed Shadowkin and human heritage, and only because her bloodline aura echoed his Altar of Rebirth.

Wen Lu herself did not possess an Altar of Rebirth.

Aside from Yu Yuan, he finally encountered another unique being with an Altar of Rebirth within her.

His was artificially constructed from the Sunsorrow of a giant beast, while Canli's was a natural birthright.

"The Dawnbringers and the Devil Palace are archenemies in the extraterrestrial realms. The Devil Palace's dark arts and the Dawnbringers' bloodline are inherently opposed," Zhongli Dapan said with an odd smile. "The current leader of the Dawnbringers has had several fierce battles with Tan Xiaotian. When Tan Xiaotian entered the Star River of the extraterrestrial with the power of the Solar Spirit, he saw the Dawnbringers' leader as his ultimate adversary."

"After five battles, Tan Xiaotian finally inflicted a severe injury on the Dawnbringers' leader in their last encounter. Tan Xiaotian's rise to the helm of the Devil Palace and his esteemed status in the Everlands were achieved by stepping over the Dawnbringers' leader."

"Tan Xiaotian solidified his status as the foremost figure in the devil's path through his victory over the current leader of the Dawnbringers," Zhongli Dapan revealed nonchalantly.

Yu Yuan grasped the situation after listening.

The Devil Palace's central dark arts and the Dawnbringers' bloodline balance each other out, making them natural foes.

Tan Xiaotian validated his supremacy through the Dawnbringers, using darkness to eclipse light, and carved out a formidable reputation for himself in the Star River of the extraterrestrial.

The phrase "darkness swallows light" has become widely known beyond our world.

When Canli was born 170 years ago, the sky presented an extraordinary omen. Every member of the Dawnbringers was convinced that her arrival heralded the end of an age of unending darkness.

The patriarch and all the elders of the Dawnbringers saw Canli as the one who would one day defeat Tan Xiaotian.

It was rumored that even the mightiest within the Devil Palace came to believe in the Dawnbringers' prophecy after witnessing Canli.

Though Tan Xiaotian himself remained noncommittal, numerous Devil Palace powerhouses were intent on eliminating this threat before Canli reached her full potential.

"It's you."

At the heart of the teleportation circle, the Dawnbringers' saintess, Canli, paid no heed to Chen Langzhi's solicitousness. When she felt a resonance with the Altar of Rebirth within Yu Yuan's body, a similar reaction occurred within her own.

She immediately fixed her sights on Fiendpeak.

A dazzling light burst forth from the teleportation circle, compelling all onlookers, including guests from other tribes, to shield their eyes.

Nine Dawnbringers warriors clad in gleaming silver armor cried out in their language, "Saintess!"

In the blink of an eye, a luminous silhouette materialized atop Fiendpeak.

Zhongli Dapan and Zhou You's faces registered subtle shifts.

Positioning themselves on either side of Yu Yuan, they prepared for what was to come.

Zhongli Dapan's fists unleashed a forceful explosion, carving out a void between Canli and Yu Yuan, in a bid to forestall any rash actions by the saintess.

Zhou You, with a stern countenance, cautioned, "Don't be hasty."

"I know you're Yu Yuan! Chen Liangquan told me that if I were within a hundred miles of you, I'd recognize you instantly," Canli declared, her gaze shining with a brilliance rivaling the sun. "I doubted his words at first, thinking he was spouting nonsense, but now I understand why."

Both of them harbored an Altar of Rebirth within, each with its unique attributes.

In the vastness of the Extraterrestrial Star River, those with an Altar of Rebirth could sense one another within a certain range, unless they deliberately concealed their aura.

Yu Yuan, not having fully mastered the control of the Altar of Rebirth, had made no attempt to hide his presence.

"Saintess!"

"My dear little aunt!"

The warriors of the Dawnbringers, along with Chen Langzhi, quickly followed through the teleportation circle.

"An eighth-level bloodline," Yu Yuan mused, rubbing his eyes. "So young, yet with such an astonishing bloodline. It's no wonder Chen Liangquan had a word of caution for me."

He gestured to Zhongli Dapan and Zhou You to relax. "My name is Yu Yuan. Welcome to the Everlands."

"Welcome? Hehe, I do enjoy a warm reception." Canli turned and shot a disdainful look at the Dawnbringers' warriors before berating Chen Langzhi, "Beat it! I don't know you, you repulsive, pig-like creature."

With that, she dismissively pointed at Zhongli Dapan and Zhou You, "You two are not needed here."

Her demeanor made it clear that she was the master of the Terror Claws and the host of this trade fair. Aware that both Zhongli Dapan and Zhou You were formidable Unbound Realm experts—one with an exceptionally fearsome physique and the other with profound space magic—she remained unabashedly haughty.

"Yu Yuan, make sure she's well taken care of," Zhou You remarked, sensing no malice from her towards Yu Yuan. He was content to leave them to it and walked away.

Zhongli Dapan watched Yu Yuan with amusement, choosing not to take offense at Canli's brashness. "Yu, enjoy your chat."

In a moment, only Yu Yuan and Canli were left atop Fiendpeak.

The silver-armored warriors of the Dawnbringers approached but were instructed by Zhou You not to ascend the mountain. They reluctantly stationed themselves at the base, vigilantly watching the summit.

Chen Langzhi was likewise denied the climb.

"Why did Canli make a beeline for that young man as soon as she arrived?"

"It's odd. They've never met before, have they?" The crowd murmured among themselves.

"Is that the saintess of the Dawnbringers, the one prophesied to counter Tan Xiaotian in the future?" Ann Ziqing of the Colddeath, seemingly well-versed in extraterrestrial rumors, scoffed, her eyes flashing with a sanguine glow. "That Canli seems like a naïve girl. Are the Dawnbringers all talk?"

"No, the saintess possesses a peculiar object within her," Ann Jieshan stated gravely, "something innate to her."

"The Altar of Rebirth!"
