Chapter 19: Tianwu Arena
“Daughter, this is the entire fortune of a Golden Core Stage Cultivator. Are you sure you’re giving it to me?” Zhou Xinghe asked.
Zhou Ningyu smiled and said, “Father, these things are useless to me, but they will be somewhat useful for the Zhou Family’s development. Father, just take them.”
Zhou Xinghe nodded at this moment, sighing inwardly, “My daughter, who I always needed to protect, has finally grown up. Now she can protect the Zhou Family. But what kind of Legacy does the Qin Family have? This is too terrifying. It’s truly a blessing cultivated over ten lifetimes that Ningyu could marry into the Qin Family.”
Meanwhile, in Qin Feng’s room, the scenes from the Secret Realm were displayed before him. When Qin Feng’s Divine Sense swept through it, he discovered that this so-called Tianwu Secret Realm was not simple; it was the Legacy of four Quasi-Emperors.
And the conversation of those four Quasi-Emperors just now appeared in Qin Feng’s Sea of Consciousness.
“I didn’t expect it to be the Legacy of four Quasi-Emperors, and they are even four siblings. However, I hope you all behave, otherwise, I can only refine you with the Demon Suppressing Pagoda.”
With a thought from Qin Feng’s Divine Sense, Qin Wudao and the other three appeared within Qin Feng’s Sea of Consciousness.
Qin Feng took out the Demon Suppressing Pagoda, and then a phantom image of a Demon Suppressing Pagoda appeared in the Sea of Consciousness of Qin Wudao and the other three, suppressing their Sea of Consciousness. If the four Quasi-Emperors dared to attempt Possession and resist, the Demon Suppressing Pagoda could instantly refine their remnant souls.
Then, Qin Feng separated a wisp of Divine Sense imprint and entered the Sea of Consciousness of the four. The phantom image of the Demon Suppressing Pagoda directly moved aside, and then Qin Feng’s Divine Sense imprint transformed into a divine sword, hovering within the Sea of Consciousness of the four, slowly hiding itself within their Sea of Consciousness.
As for Qin Shanhai and Tang Rou, Qin Feng also separated a wisp to protect them. As long as they encountered a life-threatening crisis, the Divine Sense Sword would instantly kill any strong Cultivator below the Five Revolution Great Emperor Realm.
After all, the gap between a Five Revolution Great Emperor and a Nine Revolution Great Emperor is like the gap between Qi Refining and Undergoing Tribulation. Each revolution an Emperor advances, their life essence undergoes a change, like an uncrossable chasm.
However, none of them knew this. If they did, they would instantly be stunned.
At this moment, within the Tianwu Secret Realm, everyone was divided into four areas. Qin Wudao, Chen Xun, Zhou Ningyu, and Qin Mengting happened to be divided into these four areas, which corresponded to the Legacy locations of Wu Bijun, Wu Sixuan, Wu Potian, and Wu Changkong.
Suddenly, within the Secret Realm, countless arenas appeared in each area, just like the martial arts arenas in the secular world.
“Fellow trial participants, what you see before you is the Tianwu Arena. Here, you can fight to your heart’s content, using your strongest Moves. Winners can continue fighting and receive rewards, while losers will lose their qualification. Here, you will compete to determine the strongest, who will then receive the Legacy.”
Then, a ranking appeared across the entire sky.
As soon as the voice fell, the Cultivators in the entire Tianwu Secret Realm were pulled into the Tianwu Arena.
Qin Wudao was currently on an arena, facing a Golden Core Stage ninth-level Cultivator who was looking at him with a cold smile.
“I am Qin Wudao.”
“Hehehe, a piece of trash at Golden Core Stage fifth-level doesn’t have the right to know my name. Go to hell!”
Then that person attacked fiercely. Qin Wudao’s expression turned cold, and he directly activated the Azure Origin Holy Sword Art. The Astonishing Rainbow Sword directly pierced through the Cultivator’s back.
That Cultivator spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, looking at Qin Wudao in disbelief, and said in despair, “Impossible! How can you be so strong?”
Then he fell down, clearly dead. Qin Wudao directly collected the man’s Storage Ring.
“Congratulations, assessment passed. Reward: one Grade 5 Medicinal Pill, Nine Revolutions Nascent Soul Pill.”
Then a Grade 5 Medicinal Pill, Nine Revolutions Nascent Soul Pill, appeared in Qin Wudao’s hand.
And this scene was also playing out in other places.
“I am Chen Xun, please enlighten me.”
“Little brat, you’re not this big sister’s opponent, oh. Be careful, big sister might spank your bottom later, oh. Remember big sister’s name, Liu Xuan.”
“Whether I’m a little brat or not, you’ll know after we fight.” Chen Xun said, pouting.
Chen Xun didn’t hesitate and directly unleashed his strongest Move, the Saint Emperor Suppressing World Fist, striking Liu Xuan with a single punch.
Liu Xuan was sent flying before she could even react, a look of disbelief on her face.
“Congratulations, assessment passed. Reward: one Grade 5 Medicinal Pill, Body Forging Pill.”
And at this moment, outside the Tianwu Arena.
“Senior Sister Liu, you’re amazing! You dealt with the enemy so quickly.” At this moment, a female Cultivator said with a smile.
“Junior Sister, I was directly knocked off the arena. It seems this trip to the Secret Realm is not for me.” Liu Xuan said helplessly.
“How is that possible? Senior Sister is a Cultivator at Golden Core Stage Great Perfection, and even more so a proud talent within the sect. How could she be defeated?” The female Cultivator beside her said in shock.
Liu Xuan didn’t respond, thinking inwardly, “Chen Xun, I remember you. You truly opened my eyes.”
Time passed quickly, and the competition continued. Four or five rounds had already taken place, and more and more Cultivators were eliminated. In the end, only a few thousand people remained on the arena, but these few thousand could be considered the elites of this Secret Realm trip.
“Look quickly, the rankings have updated again!”
“Yeah, who is this Chen Xun? How can a Golden Core Stage third-level Cultivator be on the list, even if it’s at the bottom? Isn’t this a joke?”
“I’m afraid you’re the one joking. In the last round, I fought this Chen Xun, and he sent me flying with one punch. If he hadn’t held back at the end, I would have been killed.”
“Damn it, this Chen Xun is truly a monster. I just don’t know which force he comes from.”
At this moment, Liu Xuan smiled and said, “Little brother, let big sister see where your limit truly lies. I’m so looking forward to it.”
And this scene also appeared in the other three areas. Qin Wudao, Zhou Ningyu, and Qin Mengting also made it onto the rankings, just like Chen Xun, also at the bottom of the list.
As the assessment progressed, Qin Wudao encountered people from the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect.
“I am Qin Wudao of the Qin Family from Heavenly Origin City, please enlighten me.”
“I am Li Wuya of the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect from Tianlei Prefecture, please enlighten me, Brother Qin.”
The two bowed, and Qin Wudao took out his Astonishing Rainbow Sword.
Seeing Qin Wudao take out the Astonishing Rainbow Sword, Li Wuya’s eyes twitched involuntarily. This was a Grade 10 Flying Sword! How many heads did he have that wouldn’t be enough to chop off? Could it be that Qin Wudao was able to get on the list just by relying on a Grade 10 Flying Sword?
But the Legacy was right in front of him, he couldn’t give up. Then he said, “Brother Qin, I have a suggestion. How about we have a Spell competition, without using Spiritual Qi, to determine the winner in one Move?”
Qin Wudao looked at the Astonishing Rainbow Sword in his hand and knew that Li Wuya was scared. However, Qin Wudao felt that Li Wuya was a Sword Cultivator, which was why he took out his sword to show respect. But since the other party suggested not using it, it didn’t matter.
“Brother Qin, I’m making my Move. This Move of mine once severely injured a Cultivator at the Half-Step Nascent Soul stage. If Brother Qin is not confident in taking this Move, I can hold back.” Li Wuya said solemnly at this moment.
“Li Wuya, why are you being so wishy-washy? Use your strongest ultimate Move, I’ll take it.”
“Wind and Thunder Sword Art: Immortal Sword Descends.” Li Wuya’s head surged with Spiritual Qi, and then a giant sword condensed in the air. Waves of terrifying fluctuations emanated from the sword body. This sword could indeed threaten a Half-Step Nascent Soul Cultivator.
But what Qin Wudao cultivated was the Azure Origin Holy Sword Art, which was many levels higher than the Wind and Thunder Sword Art. Wasn't this like showing off in front of an expert, or teaching a fish to swim?
Qin Wudao shouted, “Azure Origin Holy Sword Art: Heaven-Shattering Sword.”
The moment he spoke, a giant green sword condensed behind Qin Wudao, and then he said, “Go.”
Then that giant green sword directly slashed towards Li Wuya’s Immortal Sword in the sky.
Li Wuya’s forehead was covered in dense sweat at this moment, and then he said, “Wind and Thunder Immortal Sword... Go.”
Instantly, the two swords collided in the air.
The moment the two swords touched, Li Wuya spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. The Wind and Thunder Immortal Sword was broken, and he suffered a backlash.
Qin Wudao’s giant green sword continued its momentum, then directly struck the barrier of the Tianwu Arena, instantly emitting a piercing roar. Then some cracks appeared in the barrier, but they recovered quickly.
Li Wuya looked at this scene in horror, then said to Qin Wudao, “Brother Qin, I lost.”
Then he dejectedly exited the arena.
And upon seeing Li Wuya disappear from the rankings, the entire Wind and Thunder Sword Sect’s Disciples immediately erupted into an uproar.
Li Wuya was their Inner Sect Senior Brother, and he was at Golden Core Stage Great Perfection cultivation. Sword Cultivators were known for their sharp attacks, and on this arena, Li Wuya was supposed to be an invincible presence, yet he had lost.
Li Wuya walked dejectedly to the Wind and Thunder Sword Sect’s station, muttering, “I lost, I actually lost, completely lost.”
“Senior Brother, what exactly happened on the Tianwu Arena?” At this moment, Li Wuya’s Junior Sister, Yang Xiaoling, asked anxiously.
“I lost to Qin Wudao. If today were a life-and-death battle, I wouldn’t last a single Move against him.” Li Wuya said at this moment.
At this point, Yang Xiaoling said, “Senior Brother, do you think Qin Wudao might be related to the Wind Thunder Sword Body that the Sect Master is looking for? Otherwise, I can’t understand how a Golden Core Stage fifth-level Sword Cultivator could defeat Senior Brother.”
Hearing this, Li Wuya felt it made sense. They had originally come to Heavenly Origin City with a mission, and encountering this Tianwu Secret Realm was just an unexpected bonus. If they could find the Wind Thunder Sword Body, that would be a great achievement.
Then he made up his mind that after this trial ended, he would definitely go to the Qin Family in Heavenly Origin City to check.
Soon, the entire Tianwu Secret Realm emitted a deafening bell sound, and the first place had already been determined.
The four areas were Qin Wudao, Zhou Ningyu, Chen Xun, and Qin Mengting.
Then a majestic palace suddenly appeared in the sky, and the four were led into the palace. As for everyone else, they were all kicked out of the Secret Realm at this moment.
And after this trial, the names of Qin Wudao, Zhou Ningyu, Chen Xun, and Qin Mengting were thoroughly established in Tianlei Prefecture, and the Qin Family of Heavenly Origin City was also exposed to the Cultivators’ view.
