Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 1834 - 1839: Veiled Mockery

Ma Bai agreed.

He and Tang Ze, as high-ranking members of Imperial Sky Gate,

could access many unpublished pieces of information.

Among them, there was a rather old record that they had seen.

But given the current situation, it's likely no one would believe it if spoken.

"Protector Ma, are you joking?"

"Indeed, if the sect has a top-tier expert, why is Dongliu County still a fourth-level Capital County now?"

"Yes! How do you explain that?"

…

"Do you want to know the reason?"

Tang Ze suddenly asked coldly.

"Sect Master, please enlighten us."

"Please enlighten us, Sect Master."

This was almost everyone's heartfelt request.

A top-tier expert from Imperial Sky Gate.

In the end, he didn't let Imperial Sky Gate soar beyond the shackles of a fourth-level Capital County.

Who would believe this if told?

"Thousands of years ago, a talented cultivator with Dual Origin, unable to tolerate the internal strife within the sect, ended up crippling the foundation of a Foundation Establishment cultivator using his Qi Cultivation level."

As Tang Ze recounted this past incident, many people took sharp breaths.

Crippling a Foundation Establishment cultivator with Qi Cultivation level!

That's simply terrifying!

"Finally, under pressure, he was expelled from the sect, returning hundreds of years later with Nascent Soul stage cultivation..."

"What!"

"Nascent Soul stage!"

Everyone was in shock.

Nascent Soul stage, something they couldn't even dare to imagine.

In their lifetime, if they could condense a Golden Core, it would already be their dream come true.

"What a pity that if he hadn't been expelled from the sect at that time, both the sect and the Capital County would have reached an unimaginable realm and status."

"Indeed, but time cannot be turned back."

…

The elders all expressed their sighs.

If Dongliu County could become a higher-level Capital County, it would never be like this now.

"Indeed, what a pity."

Tang Ze scanned the crowd and continued, "I forgot to mention one thing, this expert hailed from Hundred Victories Hall."

"What!"

"Hundred Victories Hall!"

"This!"

Everyone exchanged glances.

Some didn't know how to express their shock.

Hundred Victories Hall, namely Bai Clan, actually produced a Nascent Soul stage expert!

"Surprised, right? If back then, all parts of the sect were peaceful and without conflicts, how would he have left?"

Tang Ze sarcastically remarked to the crowd.

The experience of this expert, didn't it parallel Xia Liu's situation now?

Being mocked countless times.

If he took another step forward.

Under pressure, he left the sect, returning a hundred years later with Nascent Soul stage cultivation.

What expressions would everyone have then?

Shock? Amazement?

Tang Ze just wanted to tell them, don't underestimate the poor youth!

"Sect Master, the timing is about right, how about proceeding to the next stage of the competition? History has passed, a new page is to be turned by us."

Sun Yuan, Elder of Tiande Hall, regarded as the Hall Master of this hall.

On the surface, he only had Foundation Establishment late-stage cultivation.

As for his true cultivation, it was comparable to Tang Ze's!

Even surpassing Tang Ze.

He was very familiar with the events of those years.

That was the darkest period for Tiande Hall, a period of inability to raise one's head.

He was unwilling to accept this part of history.

And it was precisely because of this history that the relationship between Tiande Hall and Hundred Victories Hall was irreparable.

"Cough, cough, I've said quite a bit today; let's proceed with the competition..."

Tang Ze glanced at Sun Yuan.

He understood clearly what this old fellow was thinking.

His attitude was made clear.

He hoped Xia Liu would hear and understand.

Xia Liu indeed understood.

But he felt no inner waves, even wanting to laugh.

"Elder Bai, you were indeed a person of temperament back then."

Xia Liu conveyed his thoughts.

The only Nascent Soul stage cultivator of Imperial Sky Gate, wasn't it Bai Jue who left and returned?

"Haha, back then I was quite impulsive; if not for worrying about the extinction of Bai Clan, I wouldn't have returned."

Bai Jue laughed heartily, explaining the reasons.

"I once gave Bai Clan a hand, allowing it to flourish for thousands of years. The subsequent downfall involved terrifying reasons upon careful consideration."

If Bai Clan had always been content and diligent in cultivation.

Bai Jue believed the current situation wouldn't have appeared. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Though he hadn't gone through it.

Having wandered for so many years, he could deduce.

Once people expand their ambitions, it won't be long before they pay the price for their actions.

"Next, there should be a competition where lives cannot be harmed."

"Competition? Competing for what?"

Xia Liu asked, puzzled.

"Remember the Trial Ground before the Ascending Heaven Gate? It's somewhat similar to that model."

"Oh? Throw participants into a place, then let them snatch tokens from others?"

"Exactly, though this place is different; it's within the formation, and cultivators outside can see the situation inside."

Bai Jue explained confidently.

"This is impressive, complete supervision without any threat to the disciples' lives?"

"That's one way to interpret it, but what's interesting is, as long as lives aren't harmed or foundations destroyed, anything else goes."

Xia Liu asked, "So besides not killing or destroying foundations, severely injuring them is allowed?"

"Theoretically, yes, but if you injure the favored disciple of certain elders, when you move within Imperial Sky Gate or leave, you will certainly face ambush."

"Haha! I like this!"

Xia Liu truly felt these rules were good.

As long as you don't kill or destroy foundations.

Let's see who blindly bumps into him.

While Xia Liu and Bai Jue communicated telepathically.

Ma Bai walked up to him.

Handed him a jade token.

"All participating talented cultivators take note, within the Minor Thousand World Formation, no killing or destroying foundations is allowed."

Tang Ze coldly stated, "You all know the rules; I won't elaborate on the Minor Thousand World Formation. Once the opponent hands over the jade token, cease all attacking actions."

"Got it?"

"Got it!"

Holding the jade tokens, the cultivators shouted in unison.

"According to the previously counted number of participants, there are a total of forty-eight disciples, and ultimately only three can emerge victorious."

Ma Bai scanned the crowd, saying, "In other words, you just need to obtain sixteen jade tokens, and you can apply to leave with the Array Defender."

Xia Liu murmured, "Sixteen tokens, the difficulty seems manageable…"

"For you, it's not difficult; it's just that within the Minor Thousand World Formation, finding people may be time-consuming."

"Elder Bai, you're surely familiar with the Minor Thousand World Formation; with you guiding, is there any worry?"

Xia Liu responded cheerfully to Bai Jue.

"Cough, cough, don't overestimate me. Inside the Minor Thousand World Formation, your positions are randomly placed. It's vast, and flying in a straight line takes days..."

"Pfft! Days to fly through the Minor Thousand World Formation, if someone deliberately hides, how to search inside?"

Xia Liu was speechless; such a large place is daunting.

"Don't worry, at intervals, there will be reminders on the jade token. The token closest to you will resonate, unless the token is within a hundred meters, otherwise the resonance will persist."
