The Birth of Sword God-Chapter 141 - 131: The Secret of the Origin Spirit Realm (Part 2)
His meaning was very clear: if someone truly has exceptional talent, then they can go to the first layer of the Origin Spirit Realm this year, and the second layer next year!
Teng Lingyi found this to be a bit fanciful.
He couldn’t help but speak: "If the dangers inside are indeed enhanced as stated in the Daoist Ancestor’s Proverbs, can anyone truly have such talent to conquer these two layers?"
He glanced at Chu Yinyin and said, "Even if your Daoist Sect has a Sword Dao prodigy who has comprehended Sword Intent, I’m afraid the odds of success aren’t great."
Teng Lingyi simply didn’t want to say harsh words at another sect’s venue.
He knew in his heart, even with Sword Intent support, there was only a ten to twenty percent chance, which was still practically a dead end!
"Anyway, just wait and see!" Chu Yinyin said proudly.
Teng Lingyi wasn’t stupid and could tell the people in the Daoist Sect had some confidence.
The Daoist Junior Martial Uncle sitting in the upper seat even had a... look of having the Wisdom Pearl?
This made him feel that it might be very interesting to lead the team to the Daoist Sect and witness the East Continent Tournament this time.
Suddenly, he realized that while he’d finished the introductions on his side, the Daoist Sect hadn’t mentioned who the two individuals who had comprehended Sword Intent were.
So, he inquired about the names.
Chu Yinyin glanced at Xiang Yan, and after the Sect Leader nodded slightly, she began to entertain.
"One of them is named Han Shuangjiang."
"The other is the future disciple I have chosen, Chu Huaixu!"
"Once he enters the Inner Sect, he will become my apprentice."
Sitting nearby, Situ Cheng couldn’t help but glance at the smug Chu Yinyin upon hearing this.
Normally proud as he was, he couldn’t help but murmur a few words in his heart.
"Become your apprentice? Are you sure?"
"This child is doomed."
...
...
The five-day preliminary competition passed quickly.
The East Continent Tournament had entered the second round.
According to the old rules, draw lots first.
Chu Huaixu’s luck was evidently better than Xiaoxu and Big Ice Cube.
Although they faced neither the highly anticipated seeded contestants nor obscurities in the first round.
He, on the other hand, encountered a prodigy from a Minor Sect.
Such individuals might be top geniuses in small places.
But compared to the strong ones in the Four Great Sects, the difference was significant.
Lang Yue from the Luoxia Sect didn’t leave the Daoist Sect after hearing Chu Huaixu and chose to stay here to watch the competition.
In fact, for losers, the Daoist Sect only allowed free lodging for three days, providing free accommodation and food.
But after three days, their stay would be at their expense.
Yet, Lang Yue, who was defeated so miserably and humiliatingly last time, couldn’t help but want to see what Chu Huaixu meant after hearing his words.
Hence, he decided to pay the expenses himself.
"Just consider it an opportunity to broaden my horizons and gain more knowledge!" Lang Yue thought.
During this period, Lang Yue would watch the matches of every newly famous person.
But his mind was always haunted by thoughts of Chu Huaixu.
Today, with another contest involving this surname Chu, there was no way Lang Yue could miss it.
"Is his opponent from the Illusion Spirit Sect?"
"Although it’s also a mid-sized sect comparable to the Luoxia Sect, this person might be harder to deal with than me."
Illusion Spirit Sect, as the name suggests, majorly practices Illusion Techniques.
Illusion Techniques are quite troublesome for low tier cultivators.
They’re considered by many to be devious arts.
It’s described as such because too many people have suffered losses from it.
Chu Huaixu still came today alongside Han Shuangjiang, often leading others to misunderstand their relationship.
But the handsome man and the beautiful woman together were always so pleasing to the eye, looking quite matched.
After the preliminary battles, their fame had grown a bit, especially Han Shuangjiang.
Her possession of a Super Grade Spiritual Artifact had spread throughout the Outer Sect.
This junior sister was truly equipped with Supreme Treasure!
After finishing the registration, Chu Huaixu gracefully stepped onto the stage.
He still held nothing in his hands, giving people the illusion that the Black Gold Robe was his Lifebound Spiritual Artifact.
A Body Cultivator with only a Middle Grade Spiritual Artifact?
Even if he easily defeated Lang Yue, people wouldn’t consider Chu Huaixu particularly strong but would ridicule Lang Yue for being so bad.
Today, Shen Miaoyun from the Illusion Spirit Sect felt certain of her victory.
This woman, who primarily practices illusion techniques, was truly unexpected, finding herself so fortunate to encounter a Body Cultivator she can completely restrain!
As everyone knows, Body Cultivators have the least mysterious methods, and their various divine techniques are quite monotonous, just possessing a strong body, resistant to beatings.
Compared to many flashy cultivators, Body Refining is indeed quite plain...
She felt that the other party couldn’t break through her illusion realm at all.
Moreover, from what she knows, Body Practitioners are all... full of vigor!
"These men, how can they resist the temptation of the Desire Illusion Realm?" Shen Miaoyun thought.
Today, she specifically dressed rather coolly, and her makeup leaned towards a lovable, delicate girl-next-door style, which counts as a little outside trick.
I appear so weak, brother, you’re so strong, can you truly bear to?
When combined with the illusion realm, the effect is even better!
As a result, when she saw Chu Huaixu for the first time, she was somewhat lost at a glance.
This handsome and extraordinarily charismatic man completely overturned her shallow understanding of Body Cultivators!
This is by no means the crude Body Cultivators imagined by the world!
His Black Gold Robe even made Chu Huaixu appear quite noble, like a noble family’s young master.
In a sense, why isn’t this also a kind of Desire Illusion Realm he cast on her?
Moreover, as the second person on the Accompanying Play Must-Eat List, Chu Huaixu is extremely professionally ethical, his eyes full of drama, long since cultivating eyes capable of looking at a dog with passion.
Shen Miaoyun glanced at him, feeling her heart racing, completely falling into the trap!
Before the formal competition started, Chu Huaixu smiled and courteously cupped his hands to her, and she nearly became infatuated looking at him.
After all, she’s still a young girl at the age where love first buds, so it’s only natural.
However, as the top rank within the same realm of Illusion Spirit Sect, she immediately calmed down once the competition began.
Her lifebound magical treasure is the pair of Lucky Cloud Boots on her feet.
Illusion techniques take time to cast.
Moreover, she continuously maneuvered about with her body technique, easily creating illusions and confusing enemies.
Chu Huaixu stood on the stage, his gaze constantly following the moving Shen Miaoyun, watching the afterimages she left behind.
"Illusion Spirit Technique! Open!" She shouted coquettishly in her heart.
Chu Huaixu looked at the Desire Illusion Realm in front of him, watching wave after waves of turmoil, observing the dramatic mountain peaks, finding it amusing internally.
"It’s like wearing VR glasses, really... ’realistic’?"
But in fact, if one gets lost in this kind of illusion realm, surrounded by so many spectators, it might indeed be quite embarrassing and a complete social death!
It’s like numerous eyes watching you transform into a hound.
He didn’t even bother to urge the black little sword within his Sea of Consciousness.
This kind of low-tier illusion technique doesn’t require Heart Sword to break through.
Lang Yue, watching from below, thought Chu Huaixu would undoubtedly fall into this woman’s trap!
Instead, he soon witnessed an extremely familiar scene.
This Body Practitioner suddenly moved, so fast it was hard to see clearly.
"Gibberish Eight Trigrams Palm!"
——"Eight Desolates Roaming Dragon!"
A charming shout rang out; dressed coolly, Shen Miaoyun flew backward, directly vomiting out a mouthful of blood mid-air.
Lang Yue watched this scene, first shocked, then slightly excited.
"She’s just like me!"
"She’s just like me; couldn’t withstand even a single move, defeated by the Martial World Martial Arts of a Body Practitioner!"
He didn’t know why he was excitedly rambling, but just felt thrilled!
The endless frustration and shame in his heart seemed to lessen?
The onlookers below looked at each other, utterly puzzled.
"Isn’t illusion supposed to restrain Body Practitioners quite well?"
"I wonder what illusion realm he saw just now, not affected at all."
"Ah, that lad, not tenderhearted at all."
"Tsk! Look at who Junior Brother Chu’s dao companion is!"
"Another one-move victory, I barely even saw it just now."
Among the crowd below, aside from a few fools, no one truly believed Chu Huaixu knew no other techniques and only used this one Martial World Palm Technique.
The reason might be he sees Martial World Palm Techniques as already sufficient?
In fact, indeed... one palm is enough!
Some thoughts began to emerge in many people’s minds.
"When will he use techniques?"
"What kind of opponent will force him to use techniques?"
...
