247: Let's start with you!
After a long while, among the tens of thousands of people present, not a single person responded.
Baili Hao felt his authority was being challenged, and his gaze swept across the scene.
"Since everyone is being so humble, this Young Master will have to call names!"
Hearing this, the hundreds of Loose Cultivators present were as quiet as cicadas in winter, lowering their heads one after another in silence.
Baili Hao casually pointed at a Golden Core Stage Fourth Level Loose Cultivator nearest to him and issued a command:
"Then let's start with you!"
That cold gaze emitted an unquestionable Aura.
The Loose Cultivator immediately retorted, "On what grounds?"
"On the grounds that you are not from my Eastern Region Continent. Since you've come to fight for the Opportunities of my Eastern Region Continent, you must be prepared to make sacrifices."
"Right! Young Master Hao is correct!"
A voice chimed in, followed by many Eastern Region Sects responding one after another, their voices rising like waves, each higher than the last.
Xiao Chen's gaze swept over all the Sect areas; only the Disciples of the Wuliang Zen Sect, Xiaoyao Immortal Sect, Nangong Family, and Liang Clan remained silent.
The others all wore the same ugly Faces.
"Ridiculous! I am a Loose Cultivator who paid the entrance fee. Why should I listen to your orders? Don't think your Baili Clan can cover the sky with one hand."
"So, you're determined to make an enemy of the entire Eastern Region Continent?"
With a single sentence, Baili Hao directly placed the other party in opposition to all the Sects of the Eastern Region.
The Loose Cultivator was not stupid: "Don't you find it comical? Can the Baili Clan represent the entire Eastern Region Continent?"
"Then why don't you listen to everyone's voices and see if more people support you or me?"
As soon as these words were spoken, a tide of accusations surged forth, drowning out the scattered voices of the Loose Cultivators.
"One must have some self-awareness. Since you want to obtain an Opportunity, you must pay a price!"
"Coming to my Eastern Region Continent to seek Opportunities means you must follow our rules."
"Exactly! If you can cross this stone bridge, it will not only be a great merit but also a test of your own abilities!"
"What are you still standing there for? Why aren't you getting on the bridge? Do you want everyone to send you up there?"
The harsh voices vibrated in his ears, making the Loose Cultivator feel utterly humiliated. He then let out a loud shout:
"Enough! I don't want this Opportunity anymore. Is it okay if I just leave?"
After speaking, he ignored the crowd's accusations and soared into the air, flying back in the direction he had come from.
Feeling like he had lost Face, Baili Hao's gaze turned icy. Spiritual power surged in his palm, and a streak of azure light suddenly blasted out, instantly piercing through the figure flying in mid-air.
"Ah!"
The Loose Cultivator screamed as his figure fell from the sky.
All those who supported Baili Hao wore arrogant expressions, as if saying that this was the consequence of being disobedient!
"You!"
Nangong Pan stared at him in disbelief and rebuked, "How can you kill people so recklessly? He was already leaving, so why did you still kill him?"
"This is the fate of those who defy my Baili Clan!"
Baili Hao said indifferently, his cold gaze sweeping over the crowd as he pointed at another Golden Core Stage Fourth Level Loose Cultivator:
"It's your turn!"
Everyone's gaze fell upon a white-clad figure in the crowd, and the Loose Cultivator's Face instantly turned deathly pale.
In the Face of the Baili Clan's brutality, moving forward still held some hope, while retreating meant certain death—the previous Loose Cultivator was a clear warning.
Clenching his fists, he walked through the crowd with unsteady steps, reached the spiritual power barrier, gritted his teeth, and charged straight in.
In an instant, an extremely powerful gravity Domain descended from above.
The Loose Cultivator's spine was instantly bent by the pressure, leaving him unable to move.
Veins bulged on his forehead and his whole body shook violently, but it wasn't as tragic as the previous two Golden Core Stage Second Level warriors.
*Hiss!*
Everyone present widened their eyes, watching this scene in disbelief—he actually held on!
Then, a red spiritual light glowed all over his body, enveloping him as he slowly moved his feet, inching forward step by tiny step.
With every step forward, he gasped for breath, his long robe already soaked with sweat, and traces of blood seeped from the corners of his mouth.
When he reached a hundred feet, the gravity Domain suddenly intensified again, and the Loose Cultivator fell directly to his knees.
The glowing red spiritual light around him instantly shattered, and his body was crushed out of shape, collapsing directly onto the stone bridge.
"Sigh..."
Seeing this, the crowd couldn't help but sigh in disappointment.
Through the testing of this pioneer, Xiao Chen also roughly figured out the limits of the gravity Domain's effect.
Since entry was restricted to those below the Nascent Soul Stage, it meant that the Golden Core Stage could pass through this stone bridge.
And since his own Physical Body strength and Soul strength had long surpassed the scope of the Golden Core Stage, crossing this stone bridge would be a breeze.
"It seems the Golden Core Stage Fourth Level can't withstand the gravity Domain in the middle either."
Baili Hao's gaze swept over the Loose Cultivators as he said indifferently, "Now, it's the turn of the Golden Core Stage Fifth Level!"
These words made the Loose Cultivators below the Golden Core Stage Fifth Level feel relieved, but it also announced that they were destined to miss out on the Secret Realm.
"This is simply treating human life like grass!" Beside him, Nangong Pan couldn't stand it any longer and directly rebuked.
Xiao Chen turned to look at him; he had a good heart, and Xiao Chen seemed to see a shadow of his Revered Master in him.
"Oh?"
Baili Hao turned his head and shot a disdainful look at Nangong Pan, "Does Young Master Pan have a better way?"
"Amitabha." The Disciples of the Wuliang Zen Sect closed their eyes one after another, pressed their palms together, and lowered their heads to chant unintelligible Zen mantras.
Seeing him remain silent, Baili Hao ignored him and continued to scan every Loose Cultivator in the area.
Then, his gaze landed on a woman in green.
"You'll do! Come out!"
Following everyone's gaze, a woman with delicate features came into view.
But to Xiao Chen, who was used to seeing top-tier beauties, she wasn't particularly beautiful.
The only thing that drew attention was her figure, which could be called top-grade; the enticing cleavage formed by her towering peaks made it impossible to look away.
Her slender willow-like waist could be held in one hand, and the skin of her calves, like mutton-fat white jade, revealed a charming milky white through the slit in her skirt.
As a gentle breeze blew past, her three thousand strands of smooth black hair became slightly disheveled, with one lock clinging to her cheek, giving her a unique charm.
A data panel suddenly appeared before his eyes:
Name: Liu Yiyi
Age: 25
Gender: Female
Cultivation: Golden Core Stage Fifth Level
Rating: 5S
Physique: None
charm value: 98/100
affection value: 0/100
Seeing the charm value on the data panel, Xiao Chen was stunned for several seconds. Logically speaking, with such looks, her charm value shouldn't reach 98 points.
Unless... like him, she had disguised her appearance.
Moreover, possessing a Golden Core Stage Fifth Level cultivation at only twenty-five years old, without having a Divine Physique, such talent was simply shocking.
Xiao Chen didn't believe that a mere Loose Cultivator could reach such an incredible cultivation speed relying on limited resources.
Thus, he directly activated the Eye of Chaos, turning on the X-ray vision function.
