Chapter 145: Meeting the Enemy Again
During the event, many disciples in the True Martial Realm were showing off their strength and powerful divine powers, which aroused the envy of many disciples in the Ordinary Martial Realm. This was also a kind of encouragement for them. Some disciples who had been traveling around all year round also took out some strange and weird things to broaden the horizons of the disciples in the sect. Some people even stood on a table, boasting and talking about their glorious experiences in the past.
There will also be some small activities during this period, which will allow many disciples to win some elixirs and crystals through their wisdom or strength, such as answering some questions, guessing riddles, etc.
Shen Xiang had been staying in the Taidan King Courtyard, using ambergris to stimulate the growth of the Qingxuan Fruit tree, which accelerated the fruiting process. Elder Dan also found this very suspicious, but as she was knowledgeable, she couldn't understand why it was so fast!
Five days have passed, and the flowers of the Qingxuan Fruit Tree have been wrapped up, and they are now forming fruits. Shen Xiang secretly sighed in his heart. He felt that this Qingxuan Fruit Tree seemed to grow very fast without the need for ambergris to ripen it.
"The Qingxuan Fruit Tree condenses the essence of wood to bear fruit, and this tree stays in this mysterious realm with rich spiritual energy. It absorbs spiritual energy very quickly and can quickly convert spiritual energy into fruit." Su Meiyao said. This was just her guess.
Now the preliminaries have begun. The final eight people who will go on stage will be decided through multiple fights. There are many people participating in the competition, both from the inner and outer courtyards, and they are all assigned to various martial arts academies for the preliminaries. A large number of people are eliminated every day.
In this preliminaries, everyone is afraid of meeting Shen Xiang, because Shen Xiang is the number one in the inner courtyard and is invincible below the Zhenwu realm. However, there are also many new young strong men who are eager to challenge Shen Xiang.
During the preliminary round, Shen Xiang was relatively gentle, and he always defeated his opponents in a very gentle way. If he found someone else's shortcomings, he would also give them some pointers, because the event was meant to allow disciples to communicate more, and this won him the respect of many people.
As soon as Shen Xiang finished watering the Pearl Green Mysterious Fruit Tree, he returned to the secret room and swallowed five True Essence Pills. A large amount of True Qi suddenly burst out of his body. He practiced the Tai Chi Dragon Subduing Technique, refining it and turning it into his own True Qi. Finally, he transformed the True Qi into divine consciousness and poured it into his sea of ??consciousness, feeding the divine soul infant in the sea of ??consciousness.
Only after this Shinto soul infant becomes stronger can he begin to practice Shinto, this is what Long Xueyi said.
Unconsciously, Shen Xiang was immersed in the process of cultivating the divine soul infant, and he concentrated on condensing a lot of spiritual consciousness to feed it. Although he did not eat the Zhenyuan Pill later, he was able to absorb a large amount of spiritual energy for cultivation through the Yin-Yang Divine Veins.
Elder Dan stood on a roof not far away, looking at the sky above the secret room where Shen Xiang was, and murmured: "It is indeed the Yin Yang Meridian. Only the Yin Yang Meridian can have this crazy ability to absorb spiritual energy. It seems that he is indeed the same as Master and Grandmaster."
Shen Xiang had been under the close watch of Elder Dan in the Taidan Palace, but Shen Xiang was cautious and did not notice it when he was using the ambergris. Although he did not see Elder Dan staring at him secretly, he could guess it.
For three consecutive days, Shen Xiang was practicing, and the amount of spiritual energy he absorbed did not decrease at all, but increased instead. This caused many people in the Elders' Council to be shocked. However, because the place where the incident happened was the Taidan King's Courtyard, no one dared to go in and investigate, and they could only watch from a distance.
Elder Dan snorted coldly, "Is this kid going to enter the Zhenwu realm? He didn't participate in the preliminaries in the past three days and had already lost his qualifications, but this is not like his style. According to his personality, he has to get the first place before breaking through!"
At this moment, Shen Xiang was in a state of oblivion, just like a newborn baby in deep sleep, unaware of anything but constantly absorbing large amounts of nutrition.
Shen Xiang's consciousness is all in that divine soul infant. He just wants to quickly absorb a large amount of divine consciousness to allow himself to grow. He is unaware of anything happening outside or any interference!
"Sister Meiyao, I tried my best, but I still couldn't wake him up. I think it's best for him to do it. It will be very troublesome if I force him to wake up." Long Xueyi's pink voice was full of helplessness, because she knew that Shen Xiang could not win the 100 True Yuan Pills, which made her secretly distressed.
The martial arts competition has begun. Everyone in the Taiwu Sect was very surprised because Shen Xiang did not make it into the eight positions. This was something that many people could not have guessed before. Judging from Shen Xiang's strength, it would be easy for him to get first place.
After asking around, everyone found out that Shen Xiang was eliminated because he did not attend the preliminaries on time, and Shen Xiang had not appeared for five days.
Shen Xiang, who was still cultivating, was secretly happy because he saw that the Shinto soul infant had grown a lot. It looked like a newborn before, but now it was about half a year old.
Shen Xiang learned from Long Xueyi that the growth rate of the soul is very slow. For example, Long Xueyi was nurtured in the dragon egg for a long time before she was eight years old. If she wants to grow into a big girl, she will need a longer time. Once she reaches adulthood, she will have the strength to look down on everything.
Shen Xiang finally woke up. Just as he woke up, he heard Long Xueyi's sweet voice with anger: "Shen Xiang, you slept for five days, and the one hundred True Essence Pills and one hundred thousand crystal stones are all gone."
"Why didn't you wake me up?" Shen Xiang immediately left the secret room and walked towards Taiwu Square, feeling very annoyed.
"I called you, but who knew you would practice so seriously? Next time, don't put all your consciousness into the soul infant, otherwise you will sleep for ten or eight years without any problem." Long Xueyi warned him seriously, her tone was very serious, because after Shen Xiang fell asleep, she had nothing to eat.
Shen Xiang wanted to slap himself twice, because his negligence caused him to be unable to participate in this competition, causing him to lose a hundred True Essence Pills and a hundred thousand crystal stones in vain!
This made him feel like his heart was being cut by a knife.
There were many people gathered in the middle of the square, but the faces of these Taiwu Sect disciples were full of anger, and Shen Xiang also saw a few people lying on the fighting stage not far away.
"What's going on?" Shen Xiang asked a middle-aged man beside him.
The middle-aged man couldn't help but be shocked when he saw Shen Xiang, and so were the people around him. They all told Shen Xiang the story.
Soon, Shen Xiang learned what had happened. At this time, he looked towards the high platform where Elder Dan and Wu Kaiming were. His pupils suddenly shrank because he saw a face that he was very familiar with. It was a very handsome face with a hint of arrogance between his brows, but it was not so annoying.
Seeing this person, Shen Xiang clenched his fists and dug his fingertips deeply into the flesh. This person was Liao Shaoyun!
After Shen Xiang came back from Piaoxiang City, he learned some things about Liao Shaoyun, which surprised him. He did not expect that Liao Shaoyun was actually an elder of the Zhenwu Sect, and a young man who was about to enter the Nirvana Realm. He had amazing talent and was a very important figure in the Zhenwu Sect.
Now the elders of Zhenwu Sect and Shouwu Sect have brought their disciples to participate in Taiwu Sect's event, and they also proposed that their disciples compete with Taiwu Sect's disciples. Then all the Taiwu Sect's disciples were defeated.
