"Xu Ziqing" just walked into the center of the spear’s force out of thin air, then suddenly swung a sword forward.
The spear’s force was instantly engulfed, yet the overwhelming evil and sinister qi still surged forward.
Their forms appeared sowhat nacing.
Sotis resembling fierce beasts, sotis like vengeful spirits...
The Ancestor Emperor held his long spear diagonally in his hand, resting it behind him.
He understood in his heart that the opponent could at most manage to swing such a sword once more.
"Even a Body Refiner cannot bear it!"
"The recovery speed of his flesh cannot keep up with the damage inflicted by using an Evil Sword!"
"If it were Chu Huaixu’s physique, perhaps more swords could be wielded."
With this thought, the Ancestor Emperor felt more remorseful and angry.
Once again, he swung his spear forward. The purple moon’s phantom behind him rged into his body at the sa mont.
Moreover, he activated the power attached to his Divine Thought.
From the storage ring worn on his left hand, he retrieved an item.
It was a drop of water.
A drop of extrely pure water.
Amongst the great cultivators on the high platform, Nangong Yue couldn’t help but exclaim: "This is... the Holy Water!"
This water is acclaid as the purest, clearest, most sacred substance in the world.
It is one of the most top-tier Heavenly and Earthly Treasures.
It can be used in artifact refining, talisman crafting, or array setting...
Apart from that, it has a slight counterimpact on the sinister qi known as the most evil qi in the heaven and earth.
But unfortunately, the sinister qi contained within the Bronze Sword is simply too imnse.
And the Holy Water in this world is so scarce.
At the mont when the spear tip of the "Imperial Moon" pierced this droplet, it intercepted it into the spear’s force.
A gust of wind swept the entire area.
Wherever this wind went, it made everyone feel refreshed and invigorated.
On the spear’s body appeared waterfalls of water.
The waterfalls and the purple fla intersected, yet neither was affected.
But the sinister qi was dispersed and part of it evaporated.
Chu Huaixu stood below watching, and suddenly a thought occurred to him.
"I can’t extract the things inside the Evil Pill because I can’t break it open."
"So can this Holy Water dissolve the Evil Pill?"
"Such a sacred object seems only effective against evil entities and won’t destroy what’s inside the Evil Pill," thought Chu Huaixu.
He felt it was possible.
But such Heavenly and Earthly Treasures are extrely rare.
He’s not even sure if the Treasure Pavilion of the Daoist Sect has any in reserve.
After all, even the Ancestor Emperor only took out one drop!
"Xu Ziqing" had a face filled with endless anger and agitation.
The Evil Sword undoubtedly harbored deep aversion towards this Holy Water.
The black Sword Qi instantly beca fiercer, and the Bronze Sword emitted a sword cry.
The tumultuous airflow made it impossible for everyone to see what truly happened in the sky.
Even Chu Huaixu couldn’t discern it clearly.
But in the end, they only saw a sword and a spear descend from above, with the tips piercing into the arena.
In the chaotic airflow where clarity was elusive, Xu Ziqing’s body was the first to fall from the heights.
On the high platform, Jiang Zhi waved his large hand, and a surge of Spiritual Power lifted the unconscious young man.
When the high altitude beca vaguely visible, everyone saw "Qin Xuanxiao" still standing in the air.
This seed to already indicate the victor.
The entire arena erupted into tumultuous cheers like a tsunami.
But these sounds soon ca to an abrupt halt.
Because the Crown Prince’s swaying figure also plumted from above imdiately after.
...
...
Thus ended the semifinals of the East and West Continent Competition.
The Heir of Prince Rui, Qin Xuanxiao, advanced to the championship with a narrow advantage.
After the event, the great cultivators from the East Continent Mirror Country gathered in Jiang Zhi’s courtyard instead of returning to their respective places.
"What aning does it have even if the Moon Country won this competition!" Situ Cheng spoke directly as soon as he started.
i Chuxue imdiately echoed: "Indeed, it does nothing for the overall situation and actually breaks the rules."
Chu Yinyin imdiately chid in: "Exactly, exactly!"
"Originally, if Qin Xuanxiao relied on the Spirit Seed, we could turn a blind eye."
"After all, that little girl is special, and the Spiritual Power she borrowed can be brought into the Origin Spirit Realm."
"But this ti, the entrance to the second layer of the Origin Spirit Realm is still within our Mirror Country’s borders."
"So the power of fortune that this Ancestor Emperor utilizes is utterly unusable and cannot be brought in!"
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded.
According to the unspoken rules of hundreds of years, the comprehensive strength valued by the Four Great Sects and the Moon Country Royal Family essentially refers to the power that can be utilized within the Origin Spirit Realm.
Today, Qin Xuanxiao won with the Ancestor Emperor’s help and many augntations, but so what?
Entering the Origin Spirit Realm, he’s not even as good as Xu Ziqing with one sword!
Jiang Zhi and the Sword Venerable, however, remained silent.
As everyone engaged in intense discussion, soone arrived uninvited.
The National Guardian Xiahou Yue arrived, clad in golden armor, making the person look even more imposing.
"Gentlen, I have co this ti rely to deliver a ssage."
"The dispute that weighs on your minds, His Majesty and I are well aware of."
"However, that person stated that he has his own way to bring the nation’s fortune into the [Origin Spirit Realm]."
"After all... you should also understand that the so-called national fortune of the Moon Country actually gathers because of him."
"This is all I have to say, farewell."
Having said this, Xiahou Yue transford into a stream of light, flying in the direction of the Imperial Palace.
Situ Cheng and the others left behind in the courtyard couldn’t help but let out cold snorts.
"He claims it can be brought inside, but can it compare to being in the Imperial Capital today, with the fortune constantly supplied?" Situ Cheng remarked in frustration.
But there was no definite response from the other side, so no one could provide him an answer.
In the end, the middle-aged scholar spoke, asking, "Elder Jiang, what does the Daoist Sect plan?"
Currently, it is Xu Ziqing who unfairly lost, while Chu Huaixu is about to compete for the top position.
Naturally, the focus is on the Daoist Sect’s stance.
Jiang Zhi exchanged glances with Nangong Yue and Chu Yinyin before speaking:
"The competition isn’t over yet, let’s discuss it after it’s finished."
"The top position is rely displayed for everyone to see on the surface."
"In the end, who actually enters the Origin Spirit Realm, still leaves room for a good discussion between our Mirror Country and the Moon Country!" His gaze sharpened.
Everyone hearing this nodded slightly.
However, the one known as [Tianluo] from Luotian Valley couldn’t help but say at this mont:
"It’s just that, from the current situation, I can’t see much chance for Chu Huaixu to win."
"This constantly flowing national fortune is too difficult to deal with."
If the opponent were only Qin Xuexiao, this scenario wouldn’t have arisen.
The fortune he can mobilize is rather limited.
But the Ancestor Emperor descending to fight personally can draw an overwhelming power of fortune!
Jiang Zhi remarked, "I just checked on that young man; he seems carefree, as if after observing today, he feels no pressure."
"Therefore, I believe Chu Huaixu will win."
Upon hearing this, everyone exchanged glances.
Do you perhaps trust your disciple too much, Elder Jiang?
Little did they know that the nurous tis of being smacked in the face have turned Jiang Zhi into a seasoned veteran.
....
....
In the small courtyard where the true disciples of the Daoist Sect resided, Xiaoxu was still unconscious.
Han Shuangjiang tended to him from the side, while Chu Huaixu sat ditating on a mat with his eyes closed.
Currently, his character panel showed over five million points of free experience.
In addition, there was still 1 free special attribute point left unallocated.
In his [Backpack], there was also an Earth-level treasure chest.
Following his previous approach, he directly allocated this 1 special attribute point to Physique.
"[Physique 9]! How impressive!" he praised himself.
Chu Huaixu never expected to raise his Physique to 9 points while still in the Third Realm.
Only a final step away from the legendary Physique 10.
"I wonder if there will be attribute points in the mission rewards of the second layer of the [Origin Spirit Realm]?"
"If there are, as long as I win and return, I could reach Physique 10!"
Of course, the prerequisite is to first win the East and West Continent Competition.
Chu Huaixu sat on the mat, clenched his fists, and felt the power of the flesh within.
"This is terrifying; this ti it increased by nearly fifty percent!"
"Could this last point cause the power to double?"
He believed the likelihood of this was very high!
More importantly, having Physique 10 as a foundation would make his future body refining path smoother, and the enhancents to his power of the flesh upon cultivation would also be greater.
"To not beco the number one Body Cultivator in the world would be a waste of such talent!" thought Chu Huaixu.
In this world, ignoring the Dao Ancestor, it seems that in these thousand years, a Ninth Realm Body Cultivator never erged.
Even Seventh and Eighth Realm ones are extrely rare.
The path of body refining, to join the ranks of a Great Cultivator, is indeed too difficult.
Who could have anticipated that selecting the [Refining Sword Formulas] from a pile of cultivation techniques would bind him to this cultivation system?
From "Body refining is sothing even dogs won’t pursue," to "Refine! Refining is exactly what I do!"
At this mont, Chu Huaixu pondered and decided to open the Earth-level treasure chest.
The contents surprised him sowhat.
"Damn! Why is there a 6.66 million experience points package!"
"To actually receive such a thing!" Chu Huaixu was astounded.
Getting experience points from a treasure chest is generally not very worthwhile.
Because the system calculates an appropriate number based on your overall condition.
In the present, it’s indeed a substantial amount!
But looking toward the future, even several million doesn’t seem much.
"Yet seeing the panel with 11.8 million experience points, just seeing it is still quite satisfying," he thought.
This substantial sum could elevate his overall combat power dramatically!
Suddenly, thinking of this, he paused for a mont, recalling sothing.
Previously, upon entering the Daoist Ancestor Secret Realm, he made a pact with himself.
In the future, for every 10 million experience points accumulated, draw out 1 million to do this once, a learning of...
——[Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root]!
