Chapter 1658: Chapter 0978: The Successor of the Sworn Enemy Chapter 1658: Chapter 0978: The Successor of the Sworn Enemy Chapter 0978: The Disciple of a Sworn Enemy
The Heavenly Tribulation in the distance lasted for almost half the night. It wasn’t until the latter part of the night that Gao Yuqiu felt the oppressive force weighing her down rapidly recede, which ant that the distant tribulation had ended. However, whether the other party had successfully transcended the tribulation, she couldn’t really tell. She couldn’t help but glance at Qi Tian, noticing that his expression hadn’t changed much from beginning to end, as if he didn’t care about the outco of the sudden tribulation.
Gao Yuqiu secretly hoped that the other party had failed their tribulation; after all, theoretically speaking, while cultivators at the peak of the Gold Core Realm seed to be only a step away from ascending to the Nascent Soul Stage, the success rate was indeed very low, one in a hundred.
Just a few days ago, Master Zhengyu had just succeeded in transcending the tribulation right in front of her. Since Master Zhengyu had managed to do so, it ant that there should be at least ninety-nine others who failed. It didn’t make sense that Master Zhengyu had succeeded and then soone else did again today. Calculating it like that seed a bit against common sense.
Of course, Gao Yuqiu also knew that this was just common sense; the problem was that the Cultivation World has never lacked miracles. No matter how you looked at it, those invited by the Holy Land were all young talents. Even without relying on various opportunities, their chances of successfully transcending the tribulation far exceeded those of other Gold Core Realm cultivators; it wasn’t impossible for consecutive successful transcensions to occur.
In the midst of her anxiety, Gao Yuqiu waited for almost two more hours. When it was nearing daybreak, Qi Tian suddenly said, “Master Zhengyu, prepare yourself, there’s action coming.”
Gao Yuqiu’s expression turned solemn, and her gaze shifted toward the distance. Could it be that what she feared most had occurred?
Having familiarized himself with the incantations to control the flower basket throughout most of the night, Master Zhengyu had morized them all and had beco proficient in their use. He had also gained a decent understanding of how to utilize the flower basket in combat. At this mont, he was very eager to find an opponent to test out the fruits of his night’s cultivation. He excitedly responded, “Just hand over the person to in a mont. You all can just support from the sidelines.”
Qi Tian chuckled and said, “This will be your first battle since becoming a Nascent Soul Master. You must win, and you must fight with pride and montum. Don’t let the world look down on you.”
Master Zhengyu touched the flower basket in his embrace. He didn’t need Qi Tian to tell him to go all out in the upcoming battle. He wasn’t only eager to test the true power of this type of flower basket but also to gauge how much his strength had improved and whether it was possible to contend with Qi Tian. If his power had increased enough, he wouldn’t mind dealing with Qi Tian as well.
Qi Tian, Master Zhengyu, and Gao Weiqiu didn’t have to wait long before they saw seven or eight dots in the sky flying rapidly towards them. The dots grew larger and quickly entered the trio’s field of vision.
Gao Yuqiu’s eyes suddenly widened, and she looked incredulous. She noticed that the people flying toward them were all acquaintances she had t before. Among them, one female cultivator had a particularly deep conflict with her.
Gao Yuqiu rembered what Qi Tian had said about the chance encounter at the last location. At the ti, Qi Tian suggested that those who intercepted them ahead of ti must be acquaintances of Gao Yuqiu. She had been sowhat skeptical then, but now she had no doubts about Qi Tian’s judgnt.
Gao Yuqiu almost ground her teeth to pieces. When those people flew closer and landed on the ground, she pointed at the female cultivator at the forefront and said, “You bitch, why is it you again? Before the great competition of the Holy Land, you were the one who led others in provoking . How co you are once again seizing the opportunities that should have been mine today? You’re truly shaless and malicious.”
The female cultivator laughed coquettishly, “Gao Yuqiu, we et again. I think you haven’t forgotten the words I said to you. Because of you that day, I suffered internal injuries and was almost unable to participate in the Holy Land competition. I swore then that the harm you caused would be repaid tenfold, a hundredfold to you. God has been fair, granting us a very good opportunity, which I gave to one of my followers. She succeeded in absorbing this opportunity and advanced to beco a Nascent Soul Master. It’s a joyous occasion, but what’s even more delightful is eting you now. Let ask you, Gao Yuqiu, are you ready? Are you ready to lose your head to ?”
Gao Yuqiu’s eyes were afla with fury. After the previous conflict with this woman at the inn, she had recounted the incident in detail to her Master, Dugu Bosi, who had hypothesized that this woman could very well be the disciple of one of Dugu Bosi’s sworn enemies.
Dugu Bosi’s rival was nad Zhao Yuying, and her cultivation technique was very similar to Dugu’s but also fundantally different. The thods taught by Dugu focused on using ntal power to enhance personal charm, thereby influencing others, whereas Zhao Yuying’s lineage used ntal power to increase their allure, bewitching and controlling others directly.
Comparing the two, Zhao Yuying’s thods leaned more toward the heterodox and were quite powerful once fully cultivated.
When Dugu Bosi had participated in the great competition of the Holy Land, he and his rival were in the sa team. Initially, they got along well, but as ti went on, their philosophies clashed, eventually leading to a fallout where they turned against each other, causing a split within the team. At that ti, Zhao Yuying’s cultivation wasn’t profound, so not many people sided with her, and the majority chose to follow Dugu Bosi.
That was all in the past. Dugu Bosi initially did not intend to share these events with Gao Yuqiu, but since Gao Yuqiu had encountered the situation, Dugu Bosi stopped hiding it. He also specifically warned Gao Yuqiu to be extra cautious about Zhao Yuying’s disciples. Fundantally, they were all on the sa path, with one side being more peaceful and the other more radical. Of course, these were not the most important differences. The critical reason was that Dugu Bosi had a special mission for Gao Yuqiu and the others entering the Holy Land competition’s secret realm. Dugu feared his rival might also send her disciple to target the sa goal. In that case, Gao Yuqiu would have to be particularly careful. If she encountered the disciple of a sworn enemy, she absolutely could not back down.
