Becoming a Deity from Planting the Bodhi Tree Chapter 368 - 177: Water Moon Spirit Machine, Slots Decided,

"Old thief, does your idea of a peer confrontation an a group of people beating up one person?"

"Hehe, let's stop arguing. Why not evaluate the performance of the martial artists from various families this ti."

"The top three are already clear; the Qin Family's daughter and the Ke Family's son are distinctly strong. Another is Ji Jingqiu from Dragon Tiger Dojo; the slash from seven days ago, still stunningly impressive when I think about it! With that concealed strike, who dares to assault him?"

"Right! The strength this lad has shown is probably not even all he has!"

"Hmm, aren't we going to discuss it further? Are the three seed spots settled like this? This is different from what we initially discussed." Soone spoke resentfully, trying to make a final appeal.

"Hehe, Zuo, don't you understand yet? The decision about these spots was never up to us from the beginning, but Elder Mu who has been watching with us." Soone said with a smile.

"Hmm, I heard that a person from the Ke family also ca, so that makes two Great Grandmasters."

"Ji Jingqiu... alas, this lad went to so secret place and his coordinates can't even be locked down; we couldn't see him compete with the other Heavenly Prides." Soone lanted.

Everyone nodded, feeling a bit regretful.

The Federation's Secret Technique can peek into the movents within the Po Suo Half-plane, but regarding so secretive places, they can't probe deeply, just like the previous Divine Temple, where they couldn't see the activities inside.

During these seven days, many martial artists from the Federation have distinguished themselves in battles against martial artists from Alien Clans, each displaying the grandeur of Arrogant Sun.

"Why not search again? We're about to end, this lad should be coming out, right?" Soone suggested.

"Indeed, if he doesn't co out soon, I'm almost suspecting that sothing unexpected happened to him!"

"Eh, he really ca out!"

"Good lad, mingling with a young girl from the Elf Clan again!"

...

...

Deep in the dense forest, the sunlight barely penetrates through the thick canopy and bushes, dappled across the ground.

An elf girl nimbly leaps over the branches, as graceful as a deer crossing a stream, her golden hair fluttering in the wind. She uses her affinity with nature to dodge pursuers and hides in a shrub.

After who knows how long, the elf girl peeks out from the bushes, with a few leaves on her head, and a cautious look in her eyes scans the surroundings, feeling an unusual fluctuation in the space around her.

Suddenly.

A familiar and upright figure appears in front of her out of thin air.

She widens her eyes, and then her perfect face bursts with sincere joy, as if finding the greatest support.

Ji Jingqiu doesn't imdiately look towards the elf girl but scans around, surprised to say:

"These people are hunting you? Our first eting was no accident; you seem to attract more hatred than I do?"

Mu Rouzhi is a bit irritated but can't beat him, so she communicates via transmission:

"They are mbers of the Hunting Star Association, a lawless organization spanning multiple Star Domains, specializing in hunting geniuses from various clans and extracting their essence of lineage."

"It's rumored they possess a certain Divine Arts for refining lineage, but it's never been confird. The organization's confidentiality thods are very peculiar. Once, top civilizations led and many civilizations joined forces but failed to eradicate them."

Hunting Star Association... there's such a force?

The situation in the Great Universe is far more complicated than he thought.

Around the jungle, a dozen figures appear one after another, completely locking down the area.

Upon seeing the young man beside Mu Rouzhi, soone exclaid:

"Eh, another competitor?"

"Wait, he doesn't look like one of us, hmm, knows the prey? Friend, you still have ti to leave."

"Why leave? Let's stay together; it doesn't matter keeping one more or less."

So people said mockingly, so classified Ji Jingqiu as prey too, and so, under the dim light upon recognizing Ji Jingqiu's face, were horrified and turned to leave.

The Po Suo Half-plane is too vast.

Even though Ji Jingqiu has beco well-known across various sectors by stepping on Wan Shensan these days, not everyone has heard his na, let alone know his appearance.

And those who recognized him now turned to flee decisively and simply, without even warning others, hoping that these people could delay Ji Jingqiu a bit, buying ti for their escape.

Ji Jingqiu's gaze swept over, and just by appearances, he could see martial artists from different civilization forces, including the Three-Eyed Empire and so previously unseen civilizations.

"How long have they been hunting you?" Ji Jingqiu suddenly asked. "Why not choose to exit the secret realm?"

Mu Rouzhi clenched her teeth, "I was waiting for you! I have important things to tell you! Otherwise, I would have left long ago! They thought I had no ans of escape, so they've been relentlessly pursuing during this ti!"

Ji Jingqiu surveyed the surroundings, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword.

He hears the whispered encouragent from the elf girl again:

"Your na has beco famous in this half-plane this ti, and after you go out, you will surely be on their list, but your Federation is located in a remote area, so it won't be a short while before soone cos looking for you."

"But if you participate in so Cosmic Secret Realm events in the future, you will also beco their target!"

"So better take them out now, otherwise so of them will beco hunters pursuing you in the future!"

Ji Jingqiu was speechless.

The gap between them would only grow larger with ti, and later on, let alone hunting himself, even looking up to him would be wishful thinking.

"Strike!"

Sensing Ji Jingqiu's intention to draw his sword and fight back, the surrounding martial artists struck simultaneously, preparing to nip the crisis in the bud and leave them no chance to fight back.
