Chapter 63 Pre-match Competition
"This is probably another protest against the poor food. The elder of the Beast God Peak asked me to come to you to ask if you have any monster corpses."
"Master, why don't you give him a good beating and teach him a lesson?"
"Junior sister, he is called the guardian beast. He has the blood of a beast and can suppress the fortune of the sect. He is our ancestor and must be worshipped. How can we fight him?"
Luck is something too mysterious. Zhong Ling'er has heard of it, but doesn't know what it is specifically. She only thinks that the ability of this divine beast to suppress luck should not be very good, otherwise the Taiqiong Sect would not have been destroyed in the past few generations.
Zhong Ling'er took out two storage rings and handed them to Ye Qinglan, and then devoted herself to her task of drawing talismans.
Half a month later, the Taiqiong Mirrors in the six major cities of Dongzhou were finally completed after much haste. The remaining small cities could only be installed slowly, which also meant that the second competition was about to begin.
The location of this competition is the Demonic Mist Swamp in the north, which is also a secret place, but a notorious one because the spiritual energy there is thin and bursts of black mist often appear. Some people say that the black mist is transformed from demonic energy because the swamp is full of demonic flowers, which only grow in demonic energy.
But contrary to the demonic energy, this demon flower is actually a good thing. Using the flower as medicine can eliminate distracting thoughts generated during cultivation and make the foundation of Taoism more solid.
The market price of the Demon Spirit Flower is up to 10,000 spirit stones for a flower that is over a hundred years old, 100,000 spirit stones for a flower that is five hundred years old, and a thousand years old can be put up for auction.
But even though the Demon Spirit Flower is so valuable, few cultivators are willing to enter here, because the monsters here have been infected by demonic energy and have all been transformed into demons. Not only are they ferocious and brutal, but they also have thick demonic energy on their bodies. If you are injured by them, you will most likely become possessed by the devil.
This competition is a true test for the descendants of each clan. Although each descendant is equipped with a teleportation token that can be crushed to leave, there are still descendants who die here every year.
The Taiqiong Sect was still the last to arrive this time, but the treatment was different. At least all the sect leaders smiled when they saw Master Wuchen.
The disciples were somewhat discordant and seemed a bit on edge.
Lei Fengming stared at Zhong Ling'er fiercely and even made a gesture of wiping his neck to intimidate her.
Zhou Yizhuo blocked the junior sister behind him and silently uttered three words: "Peach buttocks!"
Lei Fengming immediately jumped up, but was grabbed by Xiao Haotian, "Calm down, you can't beat him!"
Lei Fengming shouted unwillingly, "You Taiqiong Sect wait, we will meet in the secret realm."
Li Qiufei also stared at everyone in Taiqiong Sect, especially Ye Qinglan, viciously, "Just wait, I will definitely let you know what will happen if you provoke me."
Song Minglian, the senior sister of Danxiang Pavilion, pulled him, but he pushed her away, so she stepped aside and stopped asking questions.
Ye Ling'er looked at the senior sister and smiled friendly. She was a pitiful woman. Although she was the chief of Danxiang Pavilion, she was the least noticeable one among the chiefs of the five major sects. It was not that her cultivation was low and she was not worthy of the title of chief, but that she had a cowardly personality, which was very similar to the original owner.
Lin Chuchu walked forward and took Zhong Ling'er to talk in private. People from the fourteen sects that had cooperated with them also came over to say hello. Apart from the seven opposing sects, Taiqiong Sect had a good reputation.
Dean Tianxuan came to explain the rules to everyone again.
The competition is scored based on the quality and quantity of the magic flowers brought back by the disciples of each sect. Points are calculated based on whether the flowers are under a hundred years old, three points based on whether they are between a hundred and five hundred years old, seven points based on whether they are between five hundred and a thousand years old, and ten points based on whether they are over a thousand years old.
Talismans, formations, magic tools, elixirs, etc. are still limited to the fourth grade and below. Using items above the fifth grade will be considered cheating and the contestant will be disqualified.
Each disciple carries with him a clairvoyance, a palm-sized world, a token that can be teleported at any time, and a special jade box that can store magic flowers. The most advanced feature of this time is that the jade box can automatically count the points gained by putting magic flowers in it and display them on the magic mirror outside.
As for the others, there are no restrictions.
Zhong Linger raised her hand and asked, "Dean, does the magic flower we got belong to us? And if there are other opportunities in the secret realm, does it belong to whoever gets it?"
Dean Tianxuan smiled and said, "Yes, whoever gets these things will own them, but they are full of dangers, so don't take risks for these things. Also, don't pick up the corpses of monsters, because they are all infected by evil spirits, and their meat cannot be eaten."
Many people burst into laughter. Dean Tianxuan chuckled, like an old man teasing his juniors, but Zhong Ling'er always felt that he looked down on her.
"We still have to pick them up. Who knows, they might be useful somewhere. We in Taiqiong Sect are very poor. We have to learn how to make a living."
Zhong Ling'er said this with a serious look on her face, and the audience booed. Is Taiqiong Sect poor? Taiqiong Sect has been collecting a lot of spirit stones these days.
Zhong Linger complained, saying that the sect was no longer poor, but she was poor. I had a Cang Hai Pearl to raise, which was like a bottomless pit.
Lei Fengming also raised his hand, "Dean, you just said that there are no restrictions on other things in the secret realm. There are no restrictions on us stealing other people's things or fighting with them."
Dean Tianxuan nodded, "That's right, but I would like to remind everyone that if you see that the situation is not good, quickly crush the token. The magic flowers you bring out after leaving the secret realm will still be counted as the sect's achievements."
Several pairs of unfriendly eyes are already looking around. This is a good opportunity for them to seek revenge.
Everyone began to line up to enter the secret realm. Gu Yanze quietly came to Bai Luochen and said, "Last time, several of our sects lost badly. This time, we have to catch up in the rankings. So after we go in, I will not hold back."
Bai Luochen smiled and said, "Same here."
Xiao Haotian also came over and laughed at them: "I'm sorry in advance, please don't hate me in the future."
Zhong Linger smiled sweetly, "Brother Xiao, we should be the ones to say sorry. I hope you can meet us later."
Li Senting also came over and smiled sinisterly, "We will trample you under our feet this time."
Zhou Xuzhuo did not say anything, but with a "clang" sound, the sword came out, and the sword intent spread. Li Senting retreated with a gloomy face.
Zhong Yuxue also wanted to come over and say a few words, but before she could get close, Qi Haoran jumped out and blocked the little junior sister tightly, shouting with a vigilant look on his face: "Don't come over, don't call me sister all the time, you snatched away the little junior sister's mother and her fiancé, what else do you want to snatch? If you really want to care about sisterhood, kneel down and kowtow a few times to show your sincerity."
Zhong Yuxue's pretty face turned red. She couldn't take a step forward nor could she take it back, and she stood there awkwardly.
