Chapter 103: Mystic World
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Daoist Azure Dragon continued to talk about the ancient grotto-heaven and the Dao Seeking Sect. Qi Ming also listened carefully. He gradually had an outline and understanding of the Dao Seeking Sect of the Eastern Region.
Qi Ming had not specially inquired about the situation in this cultivation world over the years, but under the influence of others, he still had the most basic understanding.
First, this cultivation world was called the Mystic World.
In the Mystic World, demons, devils, immortals, gods, humans, and ghosts existed together.
It was divided into the regions of Eastern, Southern, Western, and Northern.
Moreover…
There was also the Central Region.
As for other more secret matters…
Qi Ming did not know for the time being.
In addition…
The rules of this legacy competition were relatively relaxed. There were no absolute restrictions, but there was only one thing. They were not allowed to kill each other among their fellow disciples. If they were discovered, they would directly cripple their cultivation and be expelled from the sect.
They could fight.
However, they could not kill each other.
The duration of the legacy competition was not specified. The Sect Master and the three Grand Elders could decide when it should end.
At that time, the Grand Elders would determine according to the exact performance whether any legacy disciples were qualified to enter the Heaven Enlightenment Immortal Mountain in this legacy competition.
Buzz!
At this moment, after the azure dragon announced the exact content and rules of the legacy competition, it transformed into a green stream of light and disappeared into thin air. Subsequently, four figures floated out of the palace of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect’s legacy competition.
“We welcome the Sect Master and the three Grand Elders.”
“We welcome Sect Master…”
“…”
In the surrounding twelve floating palaces, all the elders, legacy elders, and the twelve Peak Masters present stood up and bowed to the four figures.
Of course, Qi Ming and the others also bowed respectfully.
Yang Li nodded slightly. There was no joy or anger in his calm expression, “Grand Elders, I’ll have to trouble you to open the spatial passageway next.”
“No trouble.”
“Sect Master, you’re being too serious.”
“This is what we should do.”
Daoist Azure Dragon, Patriarch Wuyan, and Daoist Purple Firmament cupped their hands.
“Activate!”
The next moment, they acted and formed hand seals. Spatial seals appeared and spread forward, easily tearing apart space.
…
A spatial passageway ten meters in diameter appeared. It was extremely stable and had an ancient gray luster. It was like a vortex.
“Sect Master.”
Daoist Azure Dragon said, “The spatial passageway has been established.”
“Okay.”
Yang Li nodded in satisfaction.
“Qingyin.” Yang Li said.
“Master.”
At this moment, Su Qingyin flew over from the back. It had been nearly ten years since they last met, and Su Qingyin looked a little older. At the very least, she did not look like she had at first. Her body had already grown, and she had an oval face and cherry lips. Her skin was fair, and her aura was even more extraordinary.
She was like a little fairy who had just entered the world.
She had an otherworldly aura.
Yang Li said, “Qingyin, you’re my personal disciple. You’ve only been in the sect for a short period of time. Today, you’ll be the first to enter the spatial passageway and lead the way for the fellow disciples of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.”
“Go.”
Yang Li waved his hand.
“Ah?!”
Su Qingyin was stunned, and her rosy lips opened slightly.
Honestly, she did not expect her master to let her take the lead. She was a little stunned. She felt that her master had really tricked her. This ancient grotto-heaven did not sound good. Moreover, people from the Dao Seeking Sect would come.
It was very dangerous!
This… this…
She was a little flustered…
“Is she the personal disciple that the Sect Master took in ten years ago?”
“She’s quite beautiful and has a good aura.”
“Lord Sect Master wants her to be the vanguard. Is he grooming her?”
“As the Sect Master’s personal disciple, according to her status, she indeed has the right to lead us. I’m just afraid that she doesn’t have the ability.”
“Logically speaking, the Sect Master’s personal disciple should not need to participate in this legacy competition, right?”
“Does Sect Master want her to prove herself in this legacy competition?”
“…”
Everyone discussed animatedly.
“Hurry up and go.” Yang Li frowned.
Su Qingyin took a deep breath, and the nervousness in her heart had gradually calmed down. Even if everyone’s gazes were focused on her, she gradually calmed down.
Nervous? Nervous? Panicking?
All kinds of negative emotions had already been abandoned.
Su Qingyin had grown a lot.
Swish!
Su Qingyin’s figure tore through the air and transformed into a stream of light. Under the gazes of everyone, her figure flew into the spatial passageway and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Buzz!
The next moment, in the sky above the palace of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect’s legacy competition, a projection appeared.
In the projection, it was Su Qingyin. She had just teleported to the dried Chang River through the spatial passageway. She was currently standing on the riverbed.
“The legacy competition has officially begun.”
Daoist Azure Dragon shouted loudly, “All legacy disciples who have passed the puppet screening, enter the spatial passageway and be teleported to the Chang River. Then, you will find the gap of the ancient grotto-heaven and enter it.”
“Let’s go!”
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!!!
As soon as he finished speaking, the legacy disciples’ figures tore through the air like streaks of light as they rushed upwards. They entered the spatial passageway one after another and were teleported away.
“Junior Brother Qi, why aren’t you setting off?” Zheng Feijuan looked at the calm Qi Ming.
“No rush.” Qi Ming said.
“Then I’ll be leaving first.” Zheng Feijuan replied.
Not long after, the legacy disciples of the Green Cloud Peak around Qi Ming teleported away through the spatial passageway and headed for the Chang River, leaving Qi Ming alone.
“This kid is not anxious at all.” Miao Hongjian said.
“That’s true.” Feng Zimu said, “Those who achieve great things naturally have to be calm and composed.”
“Hehe.”
Wei Donghua laughed, “I think that Qi Ming is a little arrogant after obtaining first place in the puppet screening. He doesn’t know his place.”
“That makes sense.”
“…”
The other peak masters said and deliberately belittled Qi Ming.
Qi Ming had already arrived in front of the spatial passageway. He raised his foot and walked in. His figure disappeared into the spatial passageway and immediately felt weightlessness.
His vision was blank.
Buzz!
The next moment, Qi Ming’s vision returned to normal, and the weightlessness disappeared.
“This is…”
Qi Ming looked around.
What greeted his eyes was an empty river bed. Because the Chang River had dried up more than 30 years ago, the river bed had long dried up and was filled with cracks.
He looked up.
The sky was cloudless.
“The spiritual qi is too thin.”
Qi Ming took a deep breath and sensed that the surrounding spiritual qi was extremely thin. It was completely unable to be compared to the Heaven Enlightenment Sect. It was the difference between heaven and earth.
If the spiritual qi unit in the Chang River Bed was 1, then the spiritual qi unit of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect generally exceeded 100. In some special places, it was enough to reach thousands or even tens of thousands of units.
From this, it was obvious.
The environment of the outside world was far inferior to the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.
The Chang River was already in the outside world.
“Next, I should find the entrance to the ancient grotto-heaven.”
With a thought, Qi Ming consumed his Dharmic powers and calculated with his fingers. He quickly determined the exact location of the ancient grotto-heaven. He did not have to search blindly like the other legacy disciples.
Buzz!
The Dharmic powers on Qi Ming’s body shook, and he easily neutralized the backlash killing intent.
With Qi Ming’s current cultivation level, as long as it was not something that involved the workings of the heavens, the ‘backlash’ caused by it could easily be offset with his Dharmic powers.
Of course, if Qi Ming enhanced the Purity Golden Body, he could do even more.
“Riding Clouds and Fog.”
Qi Ming circulated his Dharmic powers and used the Heavenly Constellation Thirty-six Techniques. Clouds and fog surrounded him. In the blink of an eye, a white cloud condensed.
Then, he jumped up and stood on the white cloud.
“Go!”
Swish!
Qi Ming was like a stream of light as he disappeared from the spot. His speed was extremely fast as he flew towards the gap in the ancient grotto-heaven.
Riding Clouds and Fog.
This was the flying method of the Heavenly Constellation Thirty-six Techniques. It was considered a mystic technique divine power that was relatively easy to master. The speed at which one flew was mainly related to their cultivation level.
The higher his cultivation level, the faster he could fly.
On the contrary, the lower his cultivation level, the slower his flying speed would be.
Not long after, Qi Ming met his fellow disciple.
The two sides met.
Then, they looked at each other from afar.
“Qi Ming!”
The other party was a short-haired youth, “We actually met here.”
“You are?”
Qi Ming looked at the other party and did not know him.
“I’m the legacy disciple of the Immortal Progression Peak, Jiang Ming.”
The short-haired youth introduced himself and revealed his identity, “I’ve long heard of your reputation. Since we’re fated to meet, let me see if the Chaos Green Lotus Sword Scripture is as powerful as the rumors say.”
“You want to attack?” Qi Ming asked.
“Of course.” Jiang Ming answered.
“You’re not my match.”
“How would we know if we haven’t fought?” Jiang Ming retorted.
In the sky above the palace of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect’s legacy competition, thousands of projections appeared.
The situation of the legacy disciples was spread to everyone.
In the Immortal Entering Floating Palace.
“This kid, Jiang Ming, why is he finding trouble with Qi Ming for no reason?”
The legacy elder of the Immortal Progression Peak, She Kaishan, frowned, “What we should do now is to immediately find the entrance to the ancient grotto-heaven. This Qi Ming has three spirit pets protecting him. How can he be so easy to deal with?”
“Jiang Ming has cultivated the Dao Nascent Soul and is very strong. Even if this Qi Ming has a spirit pet, he should not be Jiang Ming’s match.”
“Spirit pets are just spirit pets after all. They’re only an external force.”
“His own cultivation is still the most important.”
The legacy elders of the Immortal Progression Peak said in succession.
“This Jiang Ming is really detestable.”
Lü Qingyan frowned slightly. “Why do you have to find trouble with Junior Brother?”
“Qi Ming’s cultivation level is only at the late-stage Core Formation realm.”
Feng Zimu pondered, “This Jiang Ming must have cultivated the Dao Nascent Soul. Qi Ming has three spirit pets to protect him. It’s not like he can’t fight.. He still has a chance of winning.”
