Chapter 1473 - Nine Diagram Dao Plate
"What a great, pure Spirit Color Dao Stone!"
"The impurities in the Spirit Color Dao Stone can be removed so cleanly?"
"As expected, there is no more impurities in this stone."
"..."
A chorus of praises rang out.
Although the qualified Spirit Color Dao Stones had completely removed the impurities, in the eyes of these mid-grade and high-grade Heaven Arts, it was not truly complete.
However, Tang Huan's Spirit Color Dao Stone truly did not have any impurities at all, many middle ranked Heavenly Arts were sighing in their hearts.
Hearing the praise of Xue Yu and the others, although Du Xinghe, Liu Tiangang, and He Qingzhu did not say anything, their eyes were full of praise when they looked at Tang Huan.
As for those who were paying attention to the commotion, they were completely stupefied.
"A quarter of an hour … A quarter of an hour … "
Zhang Yi Ren felt that his brain wasn't too bright. The three characters were like a thunderclap that rumbled in the depths of his soul.
Before this, he had always thought that Tang Huan was only slightly ahead of him by a little bit, but hearing what Xue Yu had said just now, Tang Huan was ahead of him by an entire quarter of an hour!
In a match like this, just what sort of concept was a quarter of an hour?
There was such a huge difference between him and Tang Huan? How was this possible? Zhang Yi Ren shook his head with all his might, and looked at Tang Huan with eyes filled with unconcealable hatred. He could not help but shout crazily in his heart: "Second round! Tang Huan, I will definitely win against you in the second round! "
Hua Xiaoyan, Sun Yingwu and Tao Yanghui were also dumbfounded.
They knew that Tang Huan was ahead of Zhang Yi Ren, but didn't know that he was ahead by so much. At this moment, the astonishment in their hearts could not be described with words. On the other hand, Team Everlasting Temple's Hua Xiaoyan was still alright, but after Sun Yingwu and Tao Yanghui recovered from their initial shock, they felt a burning sensation on their cheeks.
Before the competition, they had mocked Tang Huan unrestrainedly, swearing to let Tang Huan experience their strength while they were still in the competition. But in the first round, they were slapped in the face by Tang Huan ruthlessly, the words he said previously were now like a joke when they thought back.
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, Xue Yu and the others returned to the high platform, and the examination of the Dao stones immediately ended.
"Five hundred and thirty-two people have passed the first round of the Heavenly Arts Competition!" On the high platform, Wang Shengjie loudly shouted, "Next up is the second round, the 'Nine Diagram Dao Plate'!"
Wang Shengjie waved his hand, and many cultivators started to rush into the competition grounds. In front of every piece of low-grade divine work, there was a white jade plate that was one inch thick and about two feet long, sparkling and translucent, but its light was dim.
This was the "Nine Diagram Dao Plate", which was used to test the deduction ability of the low-grade Heavenly Arts Dao Diagram.
The jade plate contained a complete dao diagram. It wasn't just one, but nine complete dao diagrams that interweaved and existed within it. One needed to successfully activate three dao diagrams to pass through the second round.
He only needed to activate two of the nine Dao-diagrams. They seemed rather simple, but in reality, they were the exact opposite.
Some of the nine Dao-seals, after having been activated, were able to coexist with each other, while others would reject each other. After successfully activating the first dao diagram, if the second dao diagram was incompatible with the first one, then all previous efforts would be in vain. He needed to start over and deduce the third dao diagram.
If he wanted to pass this round, he would need a strong ability to deduce.
In the past Heavenly Arts Competition held in the Heavenly Marks City, at least 80% of the low-grade heaven's work who passed the first round would lose to this second round's "Nine Diagram Dao Disks".
"Everyone, prepare yourselves. The second round of the Heaven Arts Competition will begin at the start!"
Accompanied by Wang Shengjie's loud shout, the hourglass on the platform suddenly flipped over, and the continuous rustling sounds were heard once again.
Inside the arena, everyone's attention was focused on the "Nine Diagram Dao Plate".
Compared to the previous round, the noise from the second round was much quieter. However, the tense atmosphere still continued unabated.
This round's time limit was the same as the previous round's. It was only one hour.
To deduce three correct and compatible dao diagrams within such a short period of time, was indeed an even more urgent task. Even Zhang Yi Ren, Hua Xiaoyan, Sun Yingwu and Tao Yanghui who were low-grade heaven's works with their Tools Method would have to compete for every second, otherwise, there was still a possibility of failure.
Therefore, at this time, they could no longer care about the backwardness of the last round, as their minds were completely immersed in the jade plate.
Tang Huan also picked up the "Nine Diagram Dao Disc". His expression was calm, and his heart was calm and unhurried. With regards to the ability to deduce dao diagrams, Tang Huan was confident that he would not lose to any of the lower tier heaven crafting skills. The only thing he needed to consider was not whether or not he could activate a few dao diagrams, but whether or not he need to be as eye-catching as the previous round.
After pondering for a moment, Tang Huan came to a decision.
Since his edge had already been revealed, why should he hide it any longer? Moreover, Xiao Budian and the nine spirits might very well be going through tribulation and ascend to the heavens, and the more famous he was in the Scarlet Radiance Heaven, the more advantageous it would be for them to find him, and perhaps even the mountains and rivers that would ascend to the heavens a step earlier would be able to obtain his information.
In that moment, Tang Huan's heart was as calm as water, his mind focused on the Dao plate in his palm.
Boundless True Essence already seeped into the interior of the Dao plate like silk. As the True Essence extended, more and more complex patterns appeared in Tang Huan's mind.
At this moment, Tang Huan's method was completely different from all the other low rank Heaven Arts. The others would first choose a part of the pattern on the Dao plate, and then follow the vines to deduce one of the dao diagrams. Then, using the dao diagram as the foundation, they would extract the silk and peel the calluses, and find another dao diagram that was compatible with it.
Tang Huan, on the other hand, had first memorized all the lines contained in the dao discs, and then proceeded forward in unison to deduce the nine dao diagrams at the same time. Within the arena, most likely only Tang Huan, who had fused with the "Intangible Buddha" and the God Crafting Crystal, would dare to use this kind of method.
As for the other low-rank work of nature, he estimated that his mind would be in a mess before all the lines appeared, let alone deducing them.
Time flew by like a shuttle. Tang Huan's body was like a boulder.
"Rumble …"
From time to time, the sound of trembling could be heard from within the arena. On top of the low-grade Heaven's Arts palm, many dao diagrams were successfully activated before releasing brilliant lights.
The nine dao diagrams contained within the disc represented nine different colors.
Unknowingly, this area had become bright and resplendent.
However, no one stopped, successfully activating a dao diagram was nothing, one needed to successfully activate two more dao diagrams in order to be able to pass through the second round. If they were able to successfully activate two more dao diagrams, then they would be able to pass through the second round.
