Chapter 221: The Four Regional Champions, The Blade of the Northern Plains, and the Opening of the Wild Sea!
In the cultivation world, there actually exist miraculous items that could reshape one’s foundation, or even their body.
However, these were incredibly rare, perhaps appearing only once every few thousand years. With the resources of the world, especially the top-tier resources, all under the control of the Holy Land, the average cultivator has even less of a chance to encounter, let alone obtain, such miraculous treasures.
Thus, stories of youths finding rare treasures and rising to fa were no longer heard. Nor were there powerful wandering cultivators around.
This world had essentially beco fixed.
“Did Hua Ciyan ntion that I should watch over you during this journey into the Wild Sea?” Suddenly, Yun Bujue shifted the topic.
“Well...” ng Changqing was surprised that Yun Bujue would bring this up.
“Don’t mind her. That Wish Fruit is no easy thing to obtain. You need to focus fully on it.” Yun Bujue patted ng Changqing’s shoulder. “As for , I’m not as weak as you all might think. I can handle myself.”
After speaking, Yun Bujue turned to leave, his figure fading into the distance, appearing sowhat out of place among the people and atmosphere here.
“Senior Brother Yun.” ng Changqing looked at him deeply.
Strictly speaking, Yun Bujue was the first high-ranking sect mber to show him genuine kindness. After ng Changqing reached the Sea Cleaving Realm, Yun Bujue directly broke sect rules and privately taught him an advanced Earth-level sword technique, the “Holy Spirit Slaughtering Sword Art.”
Unfortunately, there was nothing that could be done about his lifespan.
ng Changqing shifted his gaze and continued observing the remaining powerful talents present, using his Observation Eye He also pondered the so-called ‘formidable opponents’ of this event.
The first was naturally Han Yuanzhen.
He was at the ninth level of the Life and Death Realm, with his sword intent already perfected to ten stages.
The second and third were from the Western Desert. He wasn’t fully certain of their details, but he assud their intent was at least at eight stages, possibly ten.
Then, there was the last tournant champion from the Eastern Seas, nad Dongn Xiangzhong. He was a rather mysterious figure.
Even the information ng Changqing had received from the Elder’s jade slip was scarce.
It was said he possessed nurous high-level demon beasts, but the exact number was unknown. His understanding of intent was also unclear since Eastern cultivators specialized in beast-taming, which ant they didn’t emphasize martial intent as much as mainland cultivators.
There was also one person who had particularly caught ng Changqing’s attention: Yue Qingchan from yesterday.
It was unlikely that any of the younger prodigies, even champions, could rival ng Changqing. However, this young woman gave him an unusual feeling, unlike the others.
“Could she really be a dual-souled person?” ng Changqing’s eyes narrowed slightly, considering the possibility.
According to ancient records, dual-souled individuals often possessed one exceedingly powerful soul.
“This trip to the Wild Sea might be interesting,” ng Changqing thought with a slight smile. “Oh, and from the demonic path, who knows who might appear.”
Around a corner, Han Yuanzhen stopped, prompting curiosity from the two by his side.
“Senior Brother?”
The speaker was Lu Bao, the current champion of the Northern Plains.
He was powerful and had reached five stages of intent. But compared to ng Changqing, the difference beca obvious.
“That guy... he’s sothing else,” Han Yuanzhen remarked suddenly.
“Are you referring to the champion of the Southern Region we just saw?”
“Who else?” Han Yuanzhen’s gaze sharpened. “I didn’t expect such a prodigy to erge from a peaceful place like the Southern Region.”
In the eyes of the world, the Southern Region was indeed too tranquil. It lacked the kind of intense strife found in places like the Northern Plains, where the Abyss forced even low-level cultivators into endless conflict with demonic forces.
The Eastern Seas had been fierce before they allied with the sea demons, but had since weakened and was now seen as more akin to the Southern Region.
As for the Western Desert, it had its own demonic lands and faith-based conflicts.
So among the four domains, the Northern Plains and Western Desert had always been at the forefront. Yet now, the Southern Region had produced such a talented young leader, a truly remarkable occurrence.
“From him, I felt a certain pressure,” Han Yuanzhen continued.
This was what truly surprised him. His natural perception was extraordinarily acute, much more so than ordinary people. Facing soone who could pressure him ant that, even if he could win, he’d likely suffer injuries.
With the Wild Sea about to open, that would be an unnecessary risk. Otherwise, with his combative nature, he certainly would have fought ng Changqing just now instead of walking by him.
Hearing this, Lu Bao’s pupils contracted slightly. The previous champion before him had never lost a fight nor admitted anyone could make him feel pressured. Yet now, this new Southern champion had managed to do just that!
For Lu Bao, this realization was hard to accept.
Even so, Han Yuanzhen maintained his usual confidence, saying, “But it’s just a slight pressure. When we enter the Wild Sea, he’d better not stand in my way. Otherwise, I’ll show him just how powerful the blade of the Northern Plains is.”
Han Yuanzhen’s tone was cold, radiating an aura of invincibility as he continued forward.
Soon enough, three days passed, bringing the official opening of the Wild Sea.
The entrance lay in the heart of Wild Sky City, constantly guarded by the Wanxiang Pavilion.
A huge square teed with streaks of light as young elites from the four domains arrived one by one, revealing themselves.
The duration of the Wild Sea opening was short — only five days. Due to the different spatial rules within, those who entered could not leave at will, aning that if they faced danger, their only option was to rely on their own power.
Unlike typical small secret realms, where they could crush a teleportation token and escape, in the Wild Sea, they could only exit after five days.
With a flash of light, ng Changqing arrived, accompanied by Mo Xiaoyu, the Shi brothers, Yun Bujue, and even the Grand Elder.
Then, a rumble began.
The earth and sky quaked, the void trembled, and waves of ripples spread outward, as if so terrifying presence was pushing its way from the void into the world!
At the sa ti, an ancient aura spread across the area.
