Supernatural Insight Eyes-Chapter 1915 - 1916 Ascending the Immortal Platform!
The Turquoise Pool Grand Assembly has begun.
On the mountain peak, there is a massive square, large enough to hold tens of thousands of people. However, the number of attendees is overwhelming, with over ten thousand loose cultivators alone. Not to mention the veteran martial artists, just counting the young martial artists.
Some people can only stay below the square because the crowd is so dense that it’s impossible to squeeze in.
Ye Qiu noticed that everyone crowded here were those ordinary martial artists previously turned away. There wasn’t a single person of the Saint Heir level in sight.
Li Jin complained on the side, "You’re wondering where those Saint Heirs have gone, right?"
Ye Qiu indeed had this thought.
Li Jin gave a bitter smile, "We’re different from them. They have invitations; we have nothing. You could say we came voluntarily, and this is a test for us. Only by passing it can we enter the true venue. Did you think the Turquoise Pool Holy Grounds would be so generous that anyone who came could eat the Spirit Peaches?"
Upon hearing Li Jin’s words, Ye Qiu realized that this wasn’t the actual Spirit Peach venue. No wonder he just saw a sea of people and no powerful figures; it was actually meant to test them.
"Welcome everyone to my Turquoise Pool Holy Grounds. According to tradition, those who wish to enter the Spirit Peach venue must ascend the Turquoise Pool Platform. Good luck to all of you." A woman in white stood in mid-air, her voice reaching everyone’s ears.
The Turquoise Pool Platform?
Soon, Ye Qiu discovered that right above them was a circular platform, connected by a series of steps. Because the platform is so high, some of the steps are shrouded in mist, making it hard to spot unless you look carefully.
As soon as the woman’s words fell, many people stepped onto the stairs, beginning their climb, hoping to reach the Turquoise Pool Platform.
Ye Qiu wasn’t in a hurry. He wanted to watch others first. Seeing Ye Qiu so calm, Li Jin was a bit surprised and said, "Stunned by the Turquoise Pool Platform, huh?"
Ye Qiu simply wanted to observe others climb first, not that he was stunned. But since Li Jin said that, he didn’t feel like explaining, so he just nodded in agreement, as if he were indeed stunned.
"Actually, you don’t need to be too surprised. I’ve climbed this Turquoise Pool Platform twice before, but unfortunately, I didn’t make it to the end either." Li Jin, watching many people climb the Turquoise Pool Platform, couldn’t help but feel a sense of regret. It seemed he had attempted this climb more than once.
Ye Qiu said nothing.
Li Jin didn’t mind, thinking Ye Qiu was here for the first time and still in shock, so he continued, "Climbing the Platform is quite good. Everyone who reaches the top of the platform instantly becomes famous. The Turquoise Pool Holy Grounds indeed provides a platform for those wanting to make a name for themselves. Climbing the Turquoise Pool Platform is not only a proof of strength but also a proof of talent. The future of those who succeed will be extraordinary, even the Saint Heirs will treat them as equals."
"For us loose cultivators, the only way to make a remarkable impression and be taken seriously is to climb the Turquoise Pool Platform. I remember at the last Turquoise Pool Assembly, someone got accepted as a disciple by a powerful master for reaching the platform."
Li Jin went on, talking endlessly in Ye Qiu’s ear, describing climbing the Turquoise Pool Platform as if it were the college entrance exam, suggesting that life would change completely upon success.
The Turquoise Pool Holy Grounds, by setting up the challenge of ascending the Turquoise Pool Platform, undoubtedly intends to screen for talents. This way, the Holy Grounds can make connections, as not everyone can ascend easily; it requires great perseverance and talent.
Of course, there is another intention at the Turquoise Pool Holy Grounds. Anyone who ascends the platform will become a key focus for the Holy Grounds. The Holy Grounds is willing to have their female disciples marry those who ascend the platform, thus both drawing in talents and strengthening the Turquoise Pool Holy Grounds.
After listening for a while, Ye Qiu roughly understood that the Turquoise Pool Platform is a test for the younger generation of loose cultivators, and also a minor attraction for the Spirit Peach Assembly, provided for everyone’s entertainment.
Since there were no women in sight here, could they be at the Spirit Peach Assembly venue?
Since he was here, Ye Qiu intended to go to the end, and he also wanted to see whether he could ascend the Turquoise Pool Platform himself.
The Spirit Peach Assembly venue.
The leader of the Turquoise Pool Holy Grounds, the Holy Mother of the Turquoise Pool, sat at the center of the main seat, wearing a phoenix coronet and a multicolored robe. She was dazzlingly radiant, exuding the presence of a supreme leader, making people dare not look directly at her.
This was the authority of the leader, invisibly radiating. Even some Saint Heirs dared not look directly, for fear of offending the Holy Mother.
In front of the Holy Maiden of the Turquoise Pool, two rows of people were seated, all with extraordinary backgrounds; either Saint Heirs or Saint Maidens. Each had fragrant Spirit Peaches laid out before them, but no one dared to touch them without the Holy Mother’s permission.
The Spirit Peach Assembly is targeted at the younger generation, with few veteran martial artists present unless for special reasons.
In the center of this venue, a light projected the scenes of numerous loose cultivators ascending the Turquoise Pool Platform.
At this moment, everyone was intently watching this display, observing these loose cultivators clamber and climb, trying to reach the top of the Turquoise Pool Platform, revealing faint smiles.
"I wonder how many will reach the platform this Spirit Peach Assembly."
"If I remember correctly, last time thirteen people did. I wonder how many exceptional talents will emerge from the loose cultivators after ten years."
"I hope more will emerge. Everyone, don’t compete with me, alright?"
"Hmph, I don’t care. To sit here, I’ve given the Turquoise Pool Holy Grounds plenty of good stuff, all to get a good disciple today."
The few veteran martial artists present whispered among themselves. They had good relations with the Turquoise Pool Holy Grounds, which is why they were seated here. Another reason they came was to observe the young people ascending the Turquoise Pool Platform and possibly take them as disciples.
"You’re already arguing, yet no one has reached the platform. What’s the rush?" an elder remarked, calm and composed.
"With your slow demeanor, if the number of young people who ascend is too low, don’t compete with us."
"I, Miao Shan, choose disciples differently from all of you. If I don’t receive one this Spirit Peach Assembly, then I’ll come again in ten years. I can’t afford to be careless in choosing disciples; I can’t just pass on my lineage to anyone easily."
Upon hearing this, the other elders stopped laughing. Given Miao Shan’s strength, he indeed had the power to say such things. His strength was arguably the greatest among the elders present, and he was the most discerning in taking disciples, which explains why he hadn’t accepted any for so many years.
As the elders discussed, a woman appeared in the venue, instantly drawing the attention of all the Saint Heirs. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
The Holy Maiden of the Turquoise Pool had arrived!
