Chapter 61: Defending the Dragon Pillar in the Arena, Geniuses Gathered
In the Land of Flames, two days had passed since Su Yi occupied the Supreme Dragon Pillar. Sitting cross-legged at the top of the dragon pillar, he looked a little lonely as he looked at the notification on the interface.
[Notification: Supreme Dragon Pillar activation progress 3%/100%]
He looked at the interface, his fingers slightly trembling.
This was the so-called Supreme Dragon Pillar? Why was it activating so slowly?
At this speed, Su Yi suspected that he might not be able to fully activate the dragon pillar even after the three levels of the Triple Heaven Trial is over…
In the past two days, he had consumed another celestial-grade azure origin pill to increase his cultivation. Unfortunately, it was still a drop in the bucket.
He did not know if it was a problem with the mystery realm or something else, but the speed at which the spiritual Qi was absorbed here was less than 10% of that of the outside world.
Therefore, he was feeling a little lonely now. He also did not have enough true understanding of spells scrolls to was not enough to learn the Tiangang Sword Finger’s 11th move, and he could only take one azure origin pill every seven days.
‘Meditating and breathing exercises? Don’t joke around,’ he thought. A month of meditation here was not as good as a day of meditation in the outside world.
Therefore, at this moment, he seemed to have nothing to do. Suddenly, his spiritual sense stirred, and his gaze looked towards the center of the square below the dragon pillar.
A formation that was flickering with a silver light appeared. After which, a beautiful figure appeared from within the formation under a dazzling silver light.
“It’s her…” Su Yi muttered as he looked at that familiar figure.
The figure that had appeared in the middle of the platform was also absent-minded for a moment. Her soft black long hair draped over the back of her ink-black robe. Her somewhat icy cold pretty eyes contained killing intent.
If it was not Li Mengxi, then who was it?
The cold and solemn aura on her body had not completely subsided, as if she had just experienced a great battle.
Suddenly, Li Mengxi’s expression changed slightly. At this moment, her immortal destiny seal was trembling slightly. It was a message sent to her by Su Yi.
Looking at the message, Li Mengxi was slightly stunned. Her eyes narrowed slightly as she looked in different directions. Then, she saw Su Yi’s figure on the tallest and largest dragon pillar in the center of the platform.
The two of them looked at each other from a distance and communicated with each other using their seals.
Li Mengxi recounted what had happened in the past few days, which made the corners of Su Yi’s eyes twitch.
It had only been five days since they separated, and you had already encountered five robbery attempts. You were indeed worthy of being one of the two school geniuses. After stepping onto the path of immortality, your charm increased even more.
At the same time, Su Yi also felt anxious for Nie Ling. He was not worried about Li Mengxi. After all, she had a top-grade spiritual root and was on the same level as a Heaven’s Favorite. Very few people could touch her.
Fortunately, under Li Mengxi’s description, he knew Nie Ling was very safe and was about to gather the essence of water.
“What should we do?” she asked through the communication seal.
She had also seen the notification Dao voice, but she felt that these dragon pillars of different heights must have some sort of special purpose, which was why she did not simply choose just any dragon pillar to rest on.
“Fellow Daoist Li, I’m not too sure about the rules of this place, but it’s very likely to be a defensive battle.”
He voiced his opinion. From the beginning of the first trial, he had already discovered that something was wrong.
On the surface, it was to collect trial items. However, at the later stages of the trial, when the cultivators could not find the essence of water, they would start fighting each other and obtain the qualifications to enter the second trial.
Seeing that Li Mengxi had already gained the upper hand and still needed two days, one could imagine what had happened in the first trial.
Presumably, a great battle had already begun. Therefore, from this point, he could deduce that the second trial was not as simple as it seemed. He still needed to verify it.
Before Li Mengxi could choose a dragon pillar, another array formation appeared in the center of the platform. Under the shining light, a male cultivator’s figure appeared in their eyes.
The male cultivator was slightly dazed as if he was looking at a Dao voice notification. Very soon, his eyes shot to where Su Yi was.
Feeling the gaze of the male cultivator, he felt that there was a malicious intent in it.
Ah, speaking of the devil, he had arrived.
It was very obvious that the male cultivator who had just arrived had taken a fancy to the position where Su Yi was, the Supreme Dragon Pillar.
His feet moved slightly, and the true essence in his body circulated. His speed was like that of a cheetah as he dashed toward the dragon pillar where Su Yi was.
Seeing this, Su Yi frowned deeply. As expected, he was coming for him.
Although the platform was big, it did not take long for him to rush to the dragon pillar. This speed was normal for a foundation establishment realm cultivators.
Soon, the male cultivator arrived under the Supreme Dragon Pillar, and he used his true essence to fly up.
“Sir, what is the meaning of this?”
The male cultivator saw a figure dashing out from the Supreme Dragon Pillar, stopping him from climbing further.
Su Yi’s true essence was attached to his feet and landed vertically on the dragon pillar. Th eFrostflame Robe flapped slightly and looked at the male cultivator who had already stabilized his body.
Suddenly, the second-highest dragon pillar started to move.
Li Mengxi had placed the Spirit of Lingxiao into the dragon’s mouth and activated the dragon pillar.
Immediately, the red flames surrounding the platform started to ripple again. Thousands of flames shot out and then split into two and poured into the dragon pillar that Su Yi and Li Mengxi had activated.
Seeing this, Su Yi was slightly stunned. He seemed to have understood something. That was because on his interface, there was a change in the progress notification.
[Notification: Supreme Dragon Clan activation progress 5%/100%]
Other than that, he could also feel the changes on the dragon pillar. It seemed that the flames burning in the dragon’s mouth had become even brighter.
The male cultivator looked in the direction of Li Mengxi and slightly frowned.
Then, he turned back to look at Su Yi and said coldly, “let’s see what you can do.”
After saying this, the true essence in his body began to explode, as if about to attack Su Yi.
…
At this time, on this platform, teleportation arrays appeared one after another, and figures started to appear one after another.
All of them were imposing, and their faces were filled with arrogance.
“Ha, I didn’t expect you guys to be so fast,” a young cultivator said indifferently. He looked like a graceful young master and glanced at the old acquaintances who appeared around him. This person’s figure was tall and stiff, and he carried a rather arrogant feeling.
This person was the fifth of the eight prodigies of the central plains, Lan Xiaotian of the Fate Intercepting Pavilion. His nickname was Young Master Sheng Xu, and his strength was in the middle stage of the foundation establishment stage.
“Tsk, what’s the rush? Aren’t the three from the northern region not here yet?” a resolute man holding a magic tool and a large saber at the side muttered. He was the fourth among the Heaven’s Favorites, the southern region’s Dao clan’s prodigy, Dao Hai.
As soon as he finished speaking, three more formations appeared in the center of the platform.
There were a total of one man and two women. They were the three prodigies of the northern region of the Central Plains, and they were all in the top three among the Heaven’s Favorites.
They were: Ling Jun of the Abyss Valley, Zi Xin of the Purple Fan Pavilion, and Nangong Mingyue of the Inquisitive Heart Palace.
All three of them had top-grade innate spiritual roots. Among them, Ling Jun’s strength was rumored to be close to breaking through to the late stage of the foundation establishment realm.
The top three of the eight Heaven’s favorites, none of them were easy to deal with.
