Chapter 47: Top-grade Spiritual Artifact

  Update 2

  Within the Supreme Mysterious Yang Sect, there are one hundred and eight peaks. If we were to discuss which is the strongest, it would undoubtedly be the Tian Ding Peak.

  And not to mention that Feng Zhuling Yangzi is one of the only six Yuan Ying True Lords among the 108 peaks, and also because Bai Qianyu, the first disciple of Tiandingshan, can cultivate a quasi-golden elixir in the ninth realm of spiritual movement at the age of 27. This kind of strength is comparable to that of the direct disciples of the elders with the same status.

  Looking at the more than 6,000 inner disciples of the Supreme Mysterious Yang Sect, Bai Jin Yu is absolutely one of the top contenders for next year's Grand Competition, and one of the people with the loudest calls to be promoted to a direct disciple.

  This time, Bai Qianyu came to Bi Tianfeng, and it was because he had received his master's orders to come here to receive the new disciples of Tian Dingfeng. However, he did not expect to run into Chu Yi leading "Jin Gang" on a frantic rush up the mountain.

  With Bai Qian's discerning eye, it was clear that "Jin Gang" was a notoriously ferocious and violent ape, one of the seven-tiered demonic beasts that even he had never tamed before. How could this "Jin Gang" possibly be a domesticated beast pet that had been tempered with a "demon-subduing talisman" to remove its wild nature?

  If so, Bai Qianyu would be less concerned, after all, the natural obedience and the use of "Demon-subduing Talismans" to subdue beast pets are fundamentally different.

  Similarly, both are seventh-order demon beasts, with a difference in strength of at least one level. Moreover, "Jīn Gāng" swallowed two demon cores, greatly increasing its demonic power, and now it has the tendency to break through and become an eighth-order demon beast. Even someone like Bai Qianyu, who has an extremely high vision, couldn't help but be moved.

  A eighth-grade demon beast, even a Golden Dan True Person would find it hard not to be moved by its presence.

  At this moment, hearing what Chu Yi said, Bai Qianyu's face changed slightly. In the Wu Shang Xuan Yang Sect, he was a well-known figure after all. Even ordinary elders would exchange pleasantries with him when they met. He had never been treated like this by an inner sect disciple before.

  Moreover, with the appearance of "Jin Gang", the inner disciples who followed and watched along the way were not in the minority. Bai Qianyu couldn't save face, blocked the road, shook his sleeves and said coldly: "What a presumptuous fellow, stop for me."

  A formless gust of wind struck his face, which was the hidden strength that Bai Qianyu shook out with a flick of her sleeve, intending to make Chu Yu lose some dignity so she could regain face in front of the crowd.

  Chu Yi might not know Bai Qianyu. Even if he did, Chu Yi wouldn't buy it now, especially since Bai Qianyu made the first move.

  He completely ignored the dark energy that was approaching him, and Chu Yi let out a cold snort, as if nothing had happened, and charged forward with his powerful physique that could withstand spiritual attacks. The trivial dark energy couldn't pose any obstruction to him.

  It wasn't until now that Bai Qianyu finally noticed that Chu Yi was also in the Lingdong period, but he didn't plan to stop there. His face couldn't be lost to just anyone, especially not in front of so many fellow disciples.

  Just as Chu Yi was about to pass by Bai Qianyu's side, the latter pinched a decisive seal between her fingers, and instantly a green barrier appeared, sealing off the mountain road that was ten people wide.

  Chu Yi didn't want to cause trouble, but at this point, even if he had no intention of competing with others, he couldn't help but show something.

  He stopped in his tracks, Chu Yi's eyes flashed with a stern expression, locking onto Bai Qianyu: "Blocking my way, do you know the consequences?"

  Bai Qianyu blocked Chu Yi, but suddenly heard such provocative words, and immediately her face sank like water, coldly saying: "This mad ape, name a price, I'll buy it, that's all."

  "Not for sale, get out of the way."

  Chu Yi cherished every word like gold, but time was too pressing, and he endured once again. If not for being in the sect, with that fierce aura in his bones, it was highly likely that he would have killed his opponent instantly.

  Bai Qianyu was about to be driven mad by Chu Yi, his face dark and terrifying. But he wasn't a simple person, he wouldn't resort to bullying tactics. After a moment's thought, he had already come up with a plan. With a cold laugh, he said: "I see that this violent ape hasn't been tamed by the 'Demon-Suppressing Seal', it's extremely dangerous. Today, I'll take my sword and slay the demon on the spot, to prevent its ferocity from erupting in the future and causing countless harm."

  Jin Gang could understand human language, and suddenly became enraged, rushing towards Bai Qian Yu with a fierce roar. The demonic aura emanating from him caused the surrounding Xuan Yang Sect members with slightly weaker cultivation to retreat in fear, their faces pale with fright.

  "Behave yourself, Kong, don't be rude."

  Chu Yitian's eyebrows furrowed, and he first released a divine sense to warn Jīn Gāng before turning his gaze to Bai Qianyu, his aura changing greatly as he fiercely spat out two words: "You dare!"

  "Isn't it that you still want to protect this scourge?" Bai Qianyu laughed even more composedly.

  "It's my pet, you dare touch a single hair on it, I'll beat you until you're picking up your teeth from the ground."

  Bai Qianyu seemed to have heard the most ridiculous joke in the world, pointing at Chu Yi: "A disciple of the inner sect who dares to challenge me, Bai Qianyu, has not been seen for ten years. Let alone I, Bai, won't give you a chance, since that's the case, I'll fight with you. If your skills are inferior, this violent and ferocious ape will be at my disposal..."

  "You won't hit me, I will hit you."

  Chu Yi's anger had been stirred up by Bai Qianyun's overbearing attitude, and he said coldly: "If I lose to you, the Golden Strength will be yours to deal with as you please. But what if you lose?"

  "What if I lose?" Bai Qianyu smiled and said: "I won't possibly lose."

  "There's nothing impossible in this world, with so many fellow disciples around, it's a good opportunity to bear witness. Are you not even willing to put down a little wager on your defeat?" Chu Yi said as he glanced around.

  Bai Qianyu was taken aback, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in his eyes. "If that's the case, this top-grade spiritual artifact will be the stakes. If I lose, it's yours."

  As the voice of Bai Qian fell, a purple-golden pagoda appeared in her palm. The pagoda had five layers, with spiritual light swirling around it, and was engraved with hundreds or thousands of intricate and mysterious symbols. Each layer of the pagoda had a lifelike coiled dragon guarding it, and at the top was embedded a crystal-clear, purple-flamed gemstone that seemed to contain an inner fire, clearly no ordinary object.

  Bai Qianyu took out this treasure, and instantly attracted a burst of exclamations from the surrounding crowd.

  "Could this be the 'Purple Flame Golden Five-Element Pagoda' from Lingyangzi's famous set of masterpieces?"

  "It was this object that, according to legend, Ling Yangzi's master Shi Bo relied on when he had not yet completed his cultivation of the Yuan Ying True Lord, and with another top-grade spiritual artifact, the 'Fantasy Destruction Great Sun Pot', single-handedly defeated two Golden Dan True Men of the same realm."

  "The six great spiritual artifacts of Tian Ding Peak are renowned, and the 'Purple Flame Golden Five-Element Pagoda' is among them. Although it's ranked last, its power is still enough to annihilate ordinary Spiritual Movement stage cultivators. Even if a Golden Dan True Person were to confront it, they might not be able to gain the upper hand!"

  "Unexpectedly, Bai Qianyu Shixiong has already obtained the transmission of this treasure. It seems that next year's promotion to direct disciple will be a big competition, and he will definitely take up one of the spots."

  "I'm not so sure. Among the strong, there are those who are even stronger. Let's not mention others, just our own Wind Cloud Master is no weaker than him."

  "Fengliu Yun, that's the one personally led by the Sect Leader to the mountain, and also obtained the treasure of Yuan Ying Zhen Jun Wu Chang Dao Ren's cave, just with the precious instrument in his hand, he has already stood on the ground of invincibility. However, don't forget, the quota for the Grand Competition is not limited to one person, Bai Qianyu's cultivation as a quasi-Golden Dan, plus this 'Purple Flame Golden Five-Element Pagoda', it will be easy for him to squeeze into the top five."

  "That's true..."

  Rumors had been circulating among his fellow disciples, and Chu Yi finally remembered the identity of Bai Qianyu. In the past, at the Trading Arena, Chu Yi had once done business with Song Dan from Tian Ding Peak, who even gave him a Cyan Jade Token, inviting him to visit in the future.

  However, this cannot change Chu Yi's disgust towards Bai Qianyu. Even when the latter took out "Purple Flame Golden Five Sided Pagoda" as a bet, Chu Yi was even more determined to give him a good beating.

  "Today, you'll pay for losing your wife and soldiers..."

  ——————————

  Compared to the summit of Bi Tian Peak, Danyangzi's forehead dripped with a drop of sweat, his face showing embarrassment as he said: "Senior brother, just let me take back one step."

  "No regrets in losing a game of chess." Pure Yangzi faintly spoke out a sentence, his eyes gazing into the distance, as if deep in thought.

  "Alright, I won't play anymore. If I had known I would lose so badly, I wouldn't have invited you to play with me."

  Danyangzi puffed out his chest and glared with his eyes, saying: "There's still about half an hour, we'll wait together until then."

  Chun Yangzi heard this and a hint of a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, pointing to the slope below, "No need to wait, my disciple seems to have already come up the mountain."

  "Here, where is it? Look at me, I'm going to teach this little brat who has no sense of time a good lesson. He's been making me anxious for an hour and a half watching you guys play chess." Angry Yangzi said on the side.

  "It seems like you're out of luck, little brother. Someone else has already stepped in to teach him a lesson on my behalf."

  Chun Yangzi said this with a tone of self-justification and obvious slight anger.

  At this moment, Danyangzi and Nuyangzi have already released their divine consciousness to explore, although the two's cultivation strength is difficult to be as high as Chunyangzi, but after all, they are also a true person of Jindan Dacheng, covering an area of hundreds of miles with their divine consciousness is still no problem.

  Right after that, both of their faces changed slightly. Nuyangzi was the first to lose his patience and said: "Master brother, that is your first disciple when you opened up the mountain. If you don't take care of him now and he gets beaten up by that little brat Bai Qianyu, then even you won't have anywhere to reason with."

  "Why should I care? Am I supposed to stop him from getting that ultimate spirit weapon?"

  Chunyangzi's words shocked everyone, and with a nonchalant wave of his sleeve, he said: "Junior brother, let's continue this game of chess. I'll give you the chance to regret one move..."
