After the two women entered a meditative state, Qin Luo waited in deep thought.
The only thing around them was the huge point of light where Murong Liyue was located, which kept changing and flashing.
Withdrawing his gaze, Qin Luo let out a soft sigh, took out his captain's token, and after inputting spiritual energy, detailed information about the top-ranked academic teams, their scores, and their current locations were displayed.
First place: Linghuang Sect, score 2700, region: Wanlin Domain, leader: Dongfang Yingluo.
Second place: Holy Spirit Gate, score 2500, region: Prison Suppression Domain, leader: Bai Yunxin.
Third place: Qingmu Sect, score 2000, region: Burning Heaven Domain, leader: Mu Qianran.
......
Fifth place: Piaomiao Sect, score 1799, region: Wind and Sand Domain, leader: Su Xuan.
......
8th place: Starfall Gate, score 1200, region: Wanlin Domain, leader: Xiao Chen.
......
30th place: Huanmengmen, score 300, region: Xuanbing Domain, leader: Sikong Xiu.
Qin Luo examined it closely, his brows sometimes furrowing slightly and sometimes relaxing.
Not long after they started watching, a strong gust of wind suddenly swept in. Qin Luo knew who it was without even looking up.
With the woman's disappearance, this space completely lost the concealment of her power and was no longer hidden.
After Sikong Xiu and the others emerged from the spiritual seal that had enveloped them, they noticed an unexpectedly high concentration of spiritual energy in the area. Following the aura, they hurried over.
Sikong Xiu was seen leading the way, wearing a black and pink long dress, her long hair flying in the wind.
Behind her, the three members of the Illusionary Dream Sect followed closely, each with a wary yet curious expression. When they saw Qin Luo standing alone to the side, while two people were cultivating in the Sea of Seals not far away, they all showed longing.
However, when Sikong Xiu saw Qin Luo for the first time, she knew in her heart that something was wrong.
They immediately guessed that the disappearance of the spiritual seal that had surrounded them was most likely related to Qin Luo.
Looking again at the huge point of light not far away, and the sea of spiritual energy behind Qin Luo, he already knew that Qin Luo had probably seized the great opportunity here first.
But Sikong Xiu remained outwardly calm, stepping forward with a concerned smile on her face:
"Young master, it's so good that you're alright. Those spirit seals were really strange; they trapped us for quite a while before we finally managed to break free."
After speaking, Sikong Xiu's eyes darted around, and she casually glanced at Yin Hai, saying as if speaking in a nonchalant manner:
"The spiritual energy here is incredibly rich, unlike anything I've ever seen in my life. I never imagined there could be such a wonderful place here."
Qin Luo put away the captain's token, looked at her meaningfully, and said indifferently:
"What? You want to go in and cultivate too? I must say, you, Huanmeng, really know how to reap the benefits without sowing."
Hearing this teasing tone, Sikong Xiu's heart skipped a beat, but she maintained her smile and responded calmly and respectfully:
“What you say is true, young master. We know that such an opportunity is rare and we dare not hope to get a share of it easily. However, when we were trapped in the spiritual seal just now, we had to use all our strength to escape and find our way here. Now that we see that the spiritual energy here is so rich, it will be of great benefit to our cultivation. If we can cultivate here for a while, we will surely be able to add more strength to serve you in the future.”
She lowered her eyes slightly, her tone subtly conveying a hint of sincerity, attempting to downplay the doubt in Qin Luo's words.
Qin Luo raised an eyebrow, crossed his arms, and sized up Sikong Xiu and the disciples of the Illusionary Dream Sect behind her.
Under Qin Luo's gaze, the three members of the Illusionary Dream Sect became uneasy upon recalling the profound power of the man before them, and unconsciously shifted their feet.
"Judging from your current cultivation level at the Spirit Tribulation stage, if you were to enter and cultivate there, would you be confident in passing the Soul Tribulation?"
This sudden question made Sikong Xiu's heart tighten. She vaguely felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it. She could only bite the bullet and say:
"If the spiritual energy inside can truly replenish my Qi Sea, then I will naturally be confident in overcoming the Soul Tribulation."
Hearing this, the coldness in Qin Luo's eyes lessened considerably, but he persisted in asking:
"What are the chances of success? This soul tribulation is no child's play; the slightest mistake will result in the soul being scattered. If we are not absolutely certain, going in will only be a pointless loss of our lives."
“Something’s not right…” Beads of sweat appeared on Sikong Xiu’s forehead. Under Qin Luo’s intense gaze, and looking at the sea of seals behind him, she gritted her teeth and steeled herself to say:
"Seventy percent, I'm seventy percent sure."
As soon as she spoke, the disciples of the Illusionary Dream Sect behind her all showed surprise and exchanged glances. He also knew the terror of the Soul Tribulation; a 70% chance of success was already quite high.
"Seventy percent? That's not enough. Although the spiritual energy in this Sea of Seals can help you improve your cultivation, it will also accelerate your soul tribulation. Without a foolproof plan, going in would be dangerous."
Sikong Xiu inwardly groaned, yet was unwilling to give up this rare opportunity. She took a deep breath, calmed herself, and said:
“Young master, I have another secret treasure that can help me withstand a soul lightning bolt at a critical moment. Moreover, if I can enter the Sea of Seals this time, I will be careful and cautious, and prepare to deal with the soul tribulation while I am trying to improve my cultivation.”
After saying that, she looked at Qin Luo expectantly, hoping to see a hint of relenting on his face.
Hearing this, a smile finally appeared on Qin Luo's face:
"Indeed, I knew you leaders of the Heavenly Gate had some tricks up your sleeve. Hand them over."
Sikong Xiu stared wide-eyed in astonishment at Qin Luo, seemingly unable to believe what she was hearing.
Realizing what had happened, she quickly took a few steps back, instinctively crossing her arms to protect her chest, her face full of vigilance.
"Young master, what do you mean by this? This treasure is a matter of life and death for me. Are you trying to steal it?"
Seeing this, the three members of the Illusionary Dream Sect quickly adopted a defensive stance, staring warily at Qin Luo, and the air was filled with a tense atmosphere.
"What are you talking about? Do you think I'm that kind of person?"
"I just want to borrow it from you for a bit. If I hadn't intervened during that puppet crisis, would you have survived? Now you won't even lend me a secret treasure? Besides, I won't let you suffer any loss. If you lend me the secret treasure, you can enter this Sea of Seals to cultivate. Such an incredible opportunity is hard to find even with a lantern. No matter how you look at it, you'll be the ones who benefit."
As Qin Luo spoke, he slightly spread his hands, a warm smile on his face.
However, the surrounding void suddenly began to fluctuate violently under Qin Luo's seemingly casual gesture, with ripples spreading outwards from Qin Luo as the center.
Wherever the ripples passed, the space folded like cloth, and black cracks appeared and disappeared, placing Sikong Xiu and the others within them.
Their faces were filled with terror as they stared at the distorted space around them, as if it would grind them into dust at any moment.
