Chapter 411: The Competition for the True Spirit World

Genres:Martial Arts and Xianxia Last update:25/03/23 21:03:52
        Opening the jade box, Wen Zhixi covered her mouth with her hand.

    In the jade box, there was actually a divine elixir flower.

    This item is not only priceless treasure in the cultivation realm, but also priceless treasure in the immortal realm.

    Her greatest desire was for the Xianxuan flower, and she didn't know how to obtain one before; now, the Xianxuan flower was in her hands.

    Wen Zhixi at this moment, her hand was trembling, and she couldn't control her inner excitement.

    Shaking hands, she picked up the jade scroll, and Ding Huan's voice came: "Zhixi, you told me that your mother only had a trace of her essence left. I don't know if you have found your mother."

    This Xianxuan flower was something I obtained in my youth, and I have no use for it either, so I leave it to you. There will always be a meeting in the mountains and rivers; we shall meet again in days to come."

    Wen Zhixi tightly grasped the jade scroll, muttering, "Thank you, Ding brother, we shall meet again in the future!"

    …

    "You, stop." Ding Huan was descending from the seventh floor when he was called by someone.

    Suddenly, he found that it was a man wearing the Qingxu Dao robe who called him.

    The guy had long hair, and his face didn't look too good. His cultivation was definitely beyond Xuanxian.

    "What's the matter?" After asking these few questions, Ding Huan suddenly remembered something.

    His clothes are the style of the Qingxu Dao, although the details are different, it's really hard to notice if you don't look closely.

    “I haven't seen you before,” the cultivator who stopped Ding Huan frowned and asked a question.

    Ding Huan awkwardly smiled: "Uh, I just arrived, just arrived..."

    "What's your name? Which peak are you from?" The cultivator's tone was still very serious.

    Ding Huan could only say, "My name is Ding Busan."

    "Do you understand formation cultivation?" The cultivator asked again.

    "I understand a little, I'm a newly-apprenticed Level 2 Immortal Array Practitioner," Ding Huan said casually.

    He just wanted to leave as soon as possible. The reason he said he was a Level 2 Immortal Array Practitioner was to set a trap.

    If the other person asks how he joined the Qingxu Dao, he would say it was because of his skills in formation cultivation. If the other person doesn't ask and lets him go, he would leave as quickly as possible.

    "Very good, follow me to come with me." The cultivator finished speaking and first went down the stairs.

    Ding Huan hesitated for a moment and still followed him.

    If he were to leave now, it would definitely expose him.

    With his current cultivation, the Qingxu Dao might be able to kill him with just one finger.

    He could indeed say that the clothes were different, but those barely noticeable differences, everyone knows are intentional attempts to trip up.

    Soon, following the guy's lead, Ding Huan arrived at the end of the third floor. The guy took out a jade token and drew a line across it, opening the array door.

    After following him inside, Ding Huan's heart secretly called for mercy.

    There was actually a hall here, and most importantly, there were at least 40 to 50 people inside.

    He couldn't stand the light, so how did he end up being brought to a place with so many people?

    "Xuan Chenzi, isn't your Qingxu Dao only two people?" A shrill voice sounded, which made people feel a bit uneasy.

    Ding Huan secretly thought that the guy who brought him was called Xuan Chenzi.

    Hearing this, Xuan Chenzi clearly wasn't pleased either. He snorted and said, "Even if it's just me, I can still beat you."

    "That's true, two people would save a lot of entrance immortal crystal." Someone in the crowd added sarcastically.

    Ding Huan still hadn't figured out what these people were up to by now.

    "Xuan Chenzi master, what are you going to do?" Ding Huan had no choice but to ask in a helpless manner.

    He felt that Xuan Chenzi was also a guy with bulging muscles and some mental shortcomings. Just because he wore a Qingxu Dao robe, he was pulled here as if he were a disciple of Qingxu Dao.

    Actually, one can't really blame Xuan Chenzi for that.

    In the ancient Immortal Tower, no one dares to impersonate other Immortal Sect disciples randomly. This is asking for death.

    If a disciple of one Dao Sect is wearing the robe of another Dao Sect and scams people, that would be the enmity between two Dao Sects.

    If it's a solitary cultivator...

    Alright, who dares to impersonate a disciple of a cultivation sect?

    Xuan Chenzi said, "My Qingxu Dao's powerful array practitioners have all left. There's only the one with the lowest array level in my Qingxu Dao, Ding Busan. However, before the competition, you should go over the rules with my nephew."

    Actually, he himself was rather angry before because he couldn't find anyone, and he didn't hear the rules very clearly.

    "Can't you yourself say it?" A female cultivator couldn't help but mock him.

    "Okay, I'll say it." A man who looked somewhat composed came forward.

    "Everyone, I'll repeat the rules for you. If anyone doesn't want to participate, they can withdraw; we have no objections."

    Now there are a total of 53 people, with nine Dao Sects involved. Besides those from Shuangyue Temple and Pavilion Hai Merchants, seven Dao Sects are participating in this betting match.

    These seven Dao Sects are Tianxuan Sword Dao, Yihai Palace, Qingxu Dao, Shenxin Gate, Changfo Temple, Xiao Kunlun Dao Sect, and Xianwu Palace…”

    Ding Huan's heart moved slightly when he heard the name Xianwu Palace.

    Before he heard Peao Xiaomei talk about the tragic encounter of the Thirty-three Dao, he had mentioned Xianwu Palace.

    The cause of that incident was because Xianwu Palace had only one disciple slot available, which led to Fu Yu Xing being ambushed.

    There is also the Xiao Kunlun Dao Sect. It's unknown if it has any connection with the Kunlun Mountain on Earth.

    "The cause of this incident is a grade-not bad spirit treasure, and a true spirit world…"

    At this point, the composed man pointed at a jade pearl placed in the center of the hall.

    Ding Huan saw this jade pearl as soon as he entered, his divine sense scanned it, locked by the restriction, he withdrew his divine sense.

    He didn't expect it to be a true spirit world.

    The level of a true spirit world is not comparable to that of a small world. It's said that if one is willing to spend the cost, a true spirit world can even grow into a Wuxing world.

    This thing is very valuable.

    Of course, true spirit worlds also have good and bad distinctions. Since this true spirit world is called a spirit treasure, its level is naturally very high.

    Does this mean that these guys are using a true spirit world as a stake?

    By all accounts, when a spirit treasure like a true spirit world appears, the first thing should be to inform the sect's elders and the sect master. How could it be allowed for just some disciples to make decisions here?

    "Since this true spirit world was discovered by us, it should be handled by us. Although Qingxu Dao is a bit weaker, its luck is also a form of strength. This cannot be blamed on others..."

    "Fan Zhí, there's no need to say these things. Just directly state the rules, and we'll get it over with." Someone in the crowd interrupted this verbose middle-aged male cultivator.

    Fan Zhí didn't mind, and continued: "The rule is that each family will send someone to set up a trap array, locking this true spirit world."

    Once the array is set up, everyone can rush into it at the same time within the agreed time to seize the true spirit world. The first one to grab it will have the true spirit world belong to their sect.

    When rushing into the true spirit world to seize it, everyone can set up various arrays to attack or imprison their opponents at any time, as long as it doesn't involve killing.

    In addition to the true spirit world, there are some other prizes. The prizes are high-grade immortal crystal.

    One thousand high-grade immortal crystals can only allow one person to enter and seize the true spirit world. Two thousand high-grade immortal crystals can allow two people to seize the true spirit world, and so on.

    The winner not only gets the true spirit world but also gets all the high-grade immortal crystals. At the same time, everyone in our field must address him as a senior brother in the future.

    If there are no problems, then we'll get started."

    "Let's begin. We Tianxuan Sword Dao have no issues, and we will send five people." A man of tall stature said, then proactively took out a ring without restrictions and dropped it next to the true spirit world.

    Ding Huan's divine sense landed on it, and indeed there were 500 high-grade immortal crystals inside the ring.

    "My Yihai Palace also has five people." Following a short and plump guy, another ring was also taken out and placed next to the true spirit world, containing exactly 500 high-grade immortal crystals.

    Then, three from the Shenxin Gate, three from the Changfo Temple, five from the Xiao Kunlun Dao Sect, four from the Xianwu Palace, and only two from Qingxu Dao.

    Ding Huan saw Xuan Chenzi take out a ring containing 2000 high-grade immortal crystals and throw it next to the true spirit world, his heart couldn't help but laugh.

    This guy must have gone back to find his fellow disciples for help, but they were all not around, pulling himself to be a cannon fodder.

    Since Xuan Chenzi doesn't recognize him, it means that this group of people has just arrived in the Immortal Tower of the Eternity.

    Just relying on the number of people is not enough.

    From Xuan Chenzi's face, Ding Huan estimated that the guy's confidence was not based on any certainty.

    Moreover, there is the Shenxin Gate, whose name suggests that they excel in array arts.

    It's unclear what these people are thinking, why they agreed to this method, it would be better to give it to Shenxin Gate.

    "Jiawo sister, your Duanyue Temple is not participating, so please serve as the host of the combat array." Fan Zhí himself was also going to participate in the combat array competition, so he naturally turned his gaze on a female monk.

    The female monk smiled slightly, stepped forward, and said, "Sure, everyone has paid the immortal crystals just now."

    Now, please have disciples from Tianxuan Sword Dao, Yihai Palace, Qingxu Dao, Shenxin Gate, Changfo Temple, Xiao Kunlun Dao Sect, and Xianwu Palace arrange trapping arrays in turn.

    Xuanyan Sword Dao was the first to step forward and arrange the trapping array. Ding Huan found that the person who came out was Fan Zhí, which turned out that this guy was from Xuanyan Sword Dao.

    Although everyone believed they could win, everyone watched intently as Fan Zhí set up the trapping array.

    Ding Huan didn't expect that Fan Zhí was actually a level three array master, who set up a level three trapping array.

    After that, Yihai Palace came out to arrange the trapping array, and they set up a level two trapping array. Then the guy who brought him here, Xuan Chenzi, went to arrange the trapping array as well, which was also a level two trapping array.

    Ding Huan thought that the Shenxin Gate would definitely set up a level three trapping array, but to his complete surprise, Shenxin Gate also arranged a level two trapping array.

    Finally, the seven Dao Sects except for Tianxuan Sword Dao all set up level two trapping arrays.

    From the means of arranging arrays, Ding Huan believed that Xuan Chenzi could rank no higher than fifth.

    The worst was Xianwu Palace, which barely set up a level two trapping array; even slightly worse, it would fall to the level of a level one trapping array.
