Chapter 49 Exchange Students at Yaochi
Chapter 49 Exchange Students at Yaochi
The young man was exceptionally talented. Using the Jade Pool as a sheath, he drew a wisp of dragon energy and slew down a supreme expert.
It can be called the best in the world.
With Jiang Rui vanishing into thin air, the battle on the Yaochi Battle Platform came to an end, but the storm it stirred up was far from over.
Phoenix, the pearl of the Wind Clan, stood amidst the scattered spectators. Her face, adorned with a five-colored mask, was tilted back, her clear, bright eyes reflecting the dragon shadows dancing in the air and the youth upon them. Suddenly, she turned to the silent Golden-Winged Roc King beside her and asked, "Brother Roc, what do you think?"
"I can't kill a supreme expert; I can't kill them by any method..."
The Golden-Winged Roc King muttered to himself, his handsome face devoid of its former arrogance, replaced by deep confusion. How could he possibly contend with such an opponent on his path to becoming an emperor?
After another moment of silence, he suddenly spoke, his voice resolute: "Fellow Daoist Feng, I'm leaving. I'm returning to my clan to attempt the trials set by the ancient Heavenly Roc Saint, to undergo a life-or-death seclusion. If I fail, I will perish within them!"
"Ah... Brother Peng, why do this? I just received news from the clan that a clue to the other half of the [Extreme Weapon] left by the Ruthless Great Emperor has been discovered in the Miaoyu Nunnery in the Divine City. There are still many opportunities ahead, there's no need for this."
Phoenix tried to persuade him, she hadn't expected this battle to have such a significant impact on the Golden-Winged Roc King. The Roc clan in the central part of the Eastern Wilderness was powerful, having produced an ancient sage who was unparalleled in the world. Before his death, the sage set up a trial within the clan as a test for his descendants.
This trial aligns with the most ferocious bird nature; it is extremely dangerous, but those who successfully overcome it will reap immense benefits.
But throughout history, very few people have been able to truly overcome the obstacles posed by the ancient sages; they are simply too difficult!
"There's no other way; otherwise, it's impossible to compete with this person." The Golden-Winged Roc King turned and transformed into a golden light, disappearing into the distance.
On the other side, the area around the Thirteen Great Bandits was also bustling with activity.
"What a monster! What a monster! How could such an invincible monster appear in this world?" Tu Fei shook his head and sighed repeatedly, seemingly very regretful. He moved closer to Jiang Huai Ren and said, "You bad guy, your great-grandfather was killed by that guy surnamed Yuan. Aren't you even a little sad?"
"Your great-grandfather is the one who died!"
Jiang Huai-ren angrily said, "Big mouth, if you keep talking nonsense, I'll beat you up. Back then, my great-grandfather Jiang Zhe was forced to leave, and my grandfather Jiang Yi rebelled against the Jiang family and joined the Thirteen Great Bandits. It was all related to this Jiang Rui. He's a cancerous old man. I'd be happy if he died."
"Indeed, the Ji family is the one who should be truly saddened."
With thick eyebrows, big eyes, and an honest face, Li Heishui smiled slightly and said in a low voice, "This genius of the Yao Guang Holy Land is vengeful. Jiang Rui, who just attacked him directly, is already dead, but the powerful figure from the Ji family just used a replica of the Void Mirror to aid and abet evil."
Although his voice was soft, he did not mute it, and the Ji family members nearby heard it and all changed color.
The gray-haired Ji family powerhouse wanted to rebuke Li Heishui for his gloating and outrageous behavior, but he dared not make any unnecessary moves. He remained vigilant, with the bright mirror above his head floating and sinking, constantly emitting wisps of chaotic energy to protect himself and the siblings Ji Haoyue and Ji Ziyue behind him.
Because a certain aura has been firmly locked onto this place.
Just like Li Heishui said, Yuan Qingsu is a vengeful person!
"This is troublesome. Look, that madman is coming over." Ji Ziyue muttered to herself. Even under the protection of a powerful being, she didn't feel safe at all.
Ji Haoyue's face was also tense, his eyes fixed on Yuan Qingsu who was walking step by step in the sky. Every step the young man took felt like it was stepping on his heart, making it hard for him to breathe. Although he was very unwilling to admit it, he knew that he was afraid.
It is a tragedy to encounter such a young and supreme being when one is full of youthful ambition.
Of course, the powerful Ji family member felt that it was a tragedy to encounter such an arrogant young man at his age.
hum!
Just when many thought another battle to slaughter a powerful being was about to break out, a tower made of immortal tears and green gold appeared above everyone's heads. A hazy power flowed around it, and with a whoosh, it snatched away Yuan Qingsu, who was walking step by step, immediately causing people to discuss it again.
"Huh? Yaochi has made a move?!"
"Hehe, this kid is indeed terrifying and incredibly talented, but he shouldn't have touched Yaochi's sacred spirit on their own territory. This is Yaochi's lifeblood. Yaochi fought countless battles with other holy lands over this in the past."
"I hope Yaochi will imprison him, otherwise who can compete with him in this life?" someone sighed.
An elderly cultivator shook his head and said, "Actually, it's not that exaggerated. Putting aside the blessing of the Yaochi Holy Spirit, exaggerated combat power at lower realms doesn't mean it can be maintained at higher realms. After all, those who can reach the Sendai Secret Realm are all geniuses, and everything will be different then. Not to mention the subsequent Dao-Slaying Kings and even more distant Saints. Many cultivators are amazing in their youth, but gradually become ordinary in the future."
Seeing this, Ji Ziyue said to the gray-haired powerhouse with delight, "Grandpa, let's hurry up and leave while this madman is suppressed by Yaochi."
"You and Haoyue go first, I'll stay."
"Huh?" The Ji family members were taken aback, thinking to themselves, "Does the old man still want to fight him?"
Swish!
The supreme expert of the Ji family stretched out his aged hand, flipped it in front of him, and took out a sandalwood treasure box from the void. He opened it, revealing five priceless leaves from the Ancient Tea Tree of Enlightenment. Looking at the Holy Lord of Yao Guang not far away, he said in a deep voice under the watchful eyes of everyone, "Fellow Daoist Li, I have offended you greatly just now. May I come over for a chat?"
With Jiang Rui's experience as a precedent, he intends to follow his heart and use Li Daoqing as a breakthrough to resolve his grievances with Yuan Qingsu.

"Why is the Queen Mother of the West preventing me from settling my karmic ties with the Ji family?"
"Alright, stop acting. Origin techniques are special; they don't consume divine power but they do consume mental power. You mobilized so much dragon energy to suppress and kill a top-tier expert. How much mental energy do you have left? If it really comes to a battle, and that old codger from the Ji family goes all out, you'll be in big trouble. Just scare them a little."
"The Source Technique does indeed drain one's mental energy, but with the help of the Holy Spirit, it's not that draining. Killing another top-tier expert wouldn't be a problem," Yuan Qingsu said seriously.
At this moment, beside the Immortal Pool in the sacred Jade Pool, under the lush ancient peach tree, he stood beside the strange stone with nine orifices and eight holes, and even with the supreme imperial weapon, the Western Emperor Tower, above his head, he still spoke with unwavering confidence.
The mature and beautiful Queen Mother of the West stood opposite her. Upon hearing this, she took a deep breath. Her jade-like hands, hidden within the sleeves of her feathered robes, clenched and unclenched repeatedly before she slowly spoke: "What method did you use? Why have you formed such a deep bond with the Holy Spirit? Even the Western Emperor Tower couldn't sever it?"
When the Western Emperor Tower was used to suppress Yuan Qingsu, the Holy Lord of Yaochi wanted to use the aura of the ultimate weapon to cleanse his entire body and sever his connection with the Holy Spirit.
But as soon as she made her move, the strange stone flew over on its own and stayed with Yuan Qingsu, showing a situation where they would share both glory and loss.
If she were to act recklessly, the sacred spirit within the strange stone would suffer irreparable damage, something that Yaochi could not tolerate.
"Perhaps it's because He drank my blood."
Yuan Qingsu said calmly, "I could feel it when I watered Him with my blood not long ago. He liked my blood very much and will need me to nourish Him with my blood in the future."
"Your constitution is indeed special..."
Two beams of divine light shot from the Queen Mother of the West's beautiful eyes as she looked at his chest repeatedly. Finally, she sighed and said, "Would you be willing to stay in Yaochi for the time being? We need time to figure these things out. The Holy Spirit is too important to us; we cannot afford to lose him."
Being able to temporarily escape the dangerous and dangerous Yao Guang Holy Land and become an exchange student in such a treasure land to cultivate, with rare stones by her side to constantly enhance her relationship, Yuan Qingsu was naturally happy. She nodded slightly and said, "Okay, but I need to say goodbye to the Holy Lord, the Holy Maiden, and my junior sisters."
"That's the proper thing to do, but not now. We'll arrange for you to meet with them the next day. For now, you stay here. Fellow Daoist Li and I still need to clean up the mess you left behind."
The Jiang family lost a top-tier expert in the Yaochi Holy Land, and now the Sun God Furnace is right at the door. This matter must be addressed no matter what, which is why the Queen Mother of the West is unwilling to see the Ji family's expert killed.
If two extreme weapons come to reason with them at the same time, the pressure will be too great.
Watching the graceful figure of the Queen Mother of the West depart, Yuan Qingsu glanced at the Western Emperor Tower in the sky one last time, then turned her attention to the spoils in her hand. This was Jiang Rui's Qiankun Bag, containing his lifelong collection.
I wonder how many particles he can revive...
