Chapter 726 Chapter 728 Fantasy Cloud Pearl
Rong Xianxian had heard that as an old second-tier force, Bagua Sect must have a Transcendent Realm master in charge. She was now in the Blood Refining Realm, and there were still three realms to go before she could cultivate to the Transcendent Realm. Although she had never seen a Transcendent Realm cultivator take action, she had encountered a seventh-level monster, the Black Rock Giant Ape, on the battlefield in the South China Sea.
At that time, the Black Rock Giant Ape was seriously injured in the turbulence of time and space, and was struck by thunder because its own strength exceeded the range that the new domain could accommodate. Its strength was greatly reduced. After the military used various new weapons with powerful lethality, such as powerful poison mist bombs and high-explosive missiles, it still failed to kill the Black Rock Giant Ape. After going berserk, the Black Rock Giant Ape created a giant storm group, causing heavy casualties to the military.
Rong Xianxian had been tracking the Black Rock Giant Ape for a long time, and seized the time when the Black Rock Giant Ape was at its weakest. Using the cover of the foggy space, she inserted the Soul-Devouring Sword into the wound under the ribs of the Black Rock Giant Ape, killing it.
Even a seriously injured level seven monster was so difficult to deal with. Rong Xianxian was very afraid of what kind of power a cultivator in the Transcendent Realm would have, even though she had never seen it.
After seeing Ze Lin off, Rong Xianxian had just flipped through a few pages of the "Intermediate Talisman Making Book" when Ren Chong sent a letter in, inviting her to attend the banquet together, and the two of them went to Yaoyu Peak together.
Yaoyu Peak is located near the center of Bagua Mountain and is one of the three main peaks of Bagua Mountain. After the two arrived at Yaoyu Peak, many young disciples were waiting on the way up the mountain and led them to Chaohui Hall halfway up the mountain, where the banquet was held.
"Mr. Ren, Miss Rong, please come in quickly!" Ze Lin said with a smile. He had received the report long ago and came to the door to greet them.
The Chaohui Hall was decorated in a magnificent and grand manner. As the sky gradually darkened, the moonstones inlaid on the walls, floor, and roof of the hall glowed brightly, illuminating the interior of the hall. In the center stood three long tables, on which were placed various spiritual fruits. Ze Lin personally welcomed Rong Xianxian and Ren Chong in, attracting the attention of everyone in the hall.
There were seventy-two people participating in the Blood Refining Realm group, but only seventeen entered the ranking competition. Among them were Bai Yihan from the Northern Snow Mountain, Mu Qingfan from the Tiangong Mountain, Qiu Tong, a disciple of Zhenren Yanluo, Ren Chong from the Qinghe Ren family, and Li Qinglan from the Yujing Peak.
"Miss Rong, nice to meet you again!" Li Qinglan stepped forward and greeted her enthusiastically.
"Master Li!" Rong Xianxian smiled back. Li Qinglan was a talisman master. Although his strength was not outstanding, he was lucky enough to draw an opponent with weaker strength in the final and successfully entered the ranking competition.
"Brother Li, have you met Miss Rong before?" Ze Lin asked Li Qinglan with interest.
"I had the honor of meeting Miss Rong before in Nanning City. At that time, I felt that Miss Rong had a unique temperament and wanted to make friends with her. Meeting here today can be considered a reunion, right?" Li Qinglan seemed to be in a good mood.
Rong Xianxian exchanged a few words with him and then found an excuse to leave. Except for Rong Xianxian and Mu Qingfan, most of the others present had some connection with each other in some way and knew each other. Only Mu Qingfan was from Kaiyuan Continent and Rong Xianxian was from another world. The two of them found a secluded place to stay at the same time.
"Everyone, thank you for participating in the founding ceremony of our Bagua Sect. Before coming to Bagua Mountain, I believe you have all heard that several predecessors stationed in the star field on the Kaiyuan Continent have detected a new area where spiritual energy has just been born. Tiangong Mountain has sent a large flying boat here for this matter. Those who are interested in exploring the new area can ride the flying boat for free, and those who are temporarily undecided can pay 10,000 spirit stones to obtain the qualification to board the flying boat." The reason why the founding ceremony of the Bagua Sect was able to attract so many people to participate has a lot to do with this matter.
"Brother Ze, have any of the fellow travelers who went to the new territory returned?" someone asked!
"No!" Ze Lin said, looking in the direction of Mu Qingfan.
"Has anyone sent back any news?" Bai Yihan asked.
"A month ago, when the five immortal kings worked together to tear open a space gap in the seventh area of the star field, the younger generation of one of the immortal kings sent back a soul fire image. The fellows who went to explore were besieged by the indigenous people of the new area. The scene was tragic and there were many casualties." Mu Qingfan replied.
After Mu Qingfan finished speaking, the hall fell silent, and then a heated discussion broke out.
"Since this is a new area that has just generated spiritual energy, how could the natives have the ability to besiege the monks? Could the information sent back be wrong?"
"I think we have a misunderstanding of the new domain. The attacks on our comrades may not have been launched by the natives. In the early days of the new domain, the environment and climate are very unstable. They may have encountered some harsh environment, like the Fire Domain or the Thunder Sea."
"How is it possible? All of our fellow travelers who passed through the space rift carried many treasures with them. Even if they encountered a harsh environment, there wouldn't be too many casualties. There must be something fishy going on over there."
The discussion in the hall became increasingly heated, with most people concerned about the safety of exploring new areas.
"Everyone be quiet and listen to me. At the beginning of the new domain, the purple light contained in the spiritual energy is pure and rich, and it is very easy to integrate into the Dantian Purple Palace. It is extremely beneficial for us to cultivate the life fire. Even if it is very dangerous there, I must go there." Ze Lin said in a firm tone.
Most of those present are cultivators at the top of the Blood Refining Realm. Once they are promoted, they will become cultivators at the Life Fire Realm. Although they are at the same Life Fire Realm, their combat effectiveness varies greatly, and the key lies in the strength of the Life Fire.
"I have no interest in the new domain. I just want to go to Kaiyuan Continent to see the world." Qiu Tong's lazy tone revealed a casualness. He was not talented. He had just ignited the Dan Fire after practicing to the Blood Refining Realm. There was no hope of opening up the Purple Mansion, so he was not in a hurry to practice the Life Fire.
These people are basically the elites of their respective families and are wealthy. The price of ten thousand spirit stones is not expensive for them. They would rather spend money than be bound by others.
“Brother Ze, let’s not talk about the new domain for now. We are really looking forward to tomorrow’s competition. Your sect actually offers the Fantasy Cloud Pearl as a prize. You are indeed an old-established force with a profound heritage that is truly admirable!” Someone in the crowd changed the subject.
“The Fantasy Cloud Pearl is a true treasure from heaven and earth. It can not only dispel all illusions, clear the negative states of the body, and ensure a clear mind, but it can also assist in spiritual practice. It is extremely precious and rare. I wonder which brother will be able to come out on top tomorrow and get this treasure!” Li Qinglan knew that he would be the last one in tomorrow’s battle and was destined to have no chance of getting the treasure, so he said this very frankly.
After Li Qinglan finished speaking, Rong Xianxian felt several gazes passing over her. Also attracting everyone's attention were Ren Chong, Mu Qingfan, Bai Yihan and others.
