Bab 12: Sage Mystic Realm, Underground Palace Competition
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Bai Weiwei was eager to return.
At this moment, she wished she had wings. She wanted to fly back to the Profound Sword Sect and hear Xuan Yi's teachings.
She put all her strength into the flying sword and finally returned to the sect three days later.
Before she could go to the back mountain, two women in silver plain robes walked from the opposite direction. Looking at their clothes, she knew they were inner sect disciples.
"Hey, did you know? A mystic realm is about to open in our south domain," a female disciple with a ponytail said to her companion.
"Oh? Are you talking about the Sage Mystic Realm?" Her companion had freckles on her face. She looked bored and did not seem to care.
"Yes, yes, yes, that's it. This is the most important thing in the southern domain now. We must prepare for it." The ponytail female disciple looked expectant.
"Forget it. I heard about this mystic realm a few years ago. Our sect master said that this mystic realm is related to the treasures of our sect. It will never be opened. Otherwise, if it is seized by other sects of the southern domain, we will be the sinner of the sect," the freckled woman said indifferently.
"That's old news. The opening of the mystic realm was discussed during the Sword Worship Assembly. It was only confirmed the day before yesterday. I've heard that the sect master not only agreed to let the top 100 sects of the south domain to explore it, but that he has appointed Elder Xuan as the leader of this expedition," the ponytailed girl said excitedly, "Elder Xuan is powerful and extremely talented. You must know that among these elders, only Elder Xuan has the qualification to enter it. After all, this mystic realm only allows people under the age of 30 to enter."
"What! !"
After learning that Xuan Yi was going to lead a team to explore the mystic realm, the freckled girl widened her eyes. She said in admiration, "No wonder. So it's Elder Xuan who is leading the team. How did you know?"
"Have you forgotten that my uncle is an elder of the sect? The news hasn't been announced yet. I only tell you."
Then, the disciple with a ponytail seemed to have thought of something. She grabbed her companion's hand and said in a low voice, "Then... then we have to hurry up and apply. Otherwise, all the slots will be snatched by those sluts. Elder Xuan will be in great danger if that happens."
"Right, right, right. Let's hurry up and apply. Elder Xuan needs us."
Bai Weiwei heard the disciples discussing some mystic realm as soon as she arrived at the sect.
Of course, she didn't care about the mystic realm. However, when she heard that her master was going to lead the expedition, she got interested.
"Hello, Senior Sisters." Bai Weiwei stepped forward and called out to them respectfully, "I'm Bai Weiwei. I want to ask you about the mystic realm you mentioned just now. What is it?"
The two disciples were about to leave when they heard someone calling to them from behind. They were a little unhappy at the interruption. However, when they turned around, they saw that it was Bai Weiwei.
Bai Weiwei was a famous figure now. Just the fact that she had been carried by Xuan Yi was enough to make many female disciples jealous.
With this resentment in heart, how could they answer her question?
The freckled girl's mouth twisted in anger as she shouted, "Coquettish fox!".
Fortunately, her companions still remembered that the sect forbad private fights and stopped her, otherwise a fight would have started.
Bai Weiwei was a little exasperated, but she was also pleased. Their jealousy showed that her master was very attractive. If they found out that she had slept in her master's bed, they would be furious.
However, she remembered that when she was unconscious after the Sword Worship Assembly, there was a stream of strong and hot spirit energy running wildly in her body. Her heart had been beating so fast because that was her master's spirit energy, and it had her master's smell.
Recalling this, she blushed despite herself.
The two inner disciples glanced at Bai Weiwei, then, they ignored her and said to themselves, "Looks like she's thinking of men. We have nothing to say to her. Let's go. The sect master said that as long as we could defeat anyone who was chosen to go to the Sage Mystic Realm, we could replace him. Let's go to the Underground Palace to join in the fun."
"Yes, yes! I heard that Elder Xuan has gone into the forbidden zone of our sect to obtain important information about the Sage Mystic Realm. I'm afraid we won't be able to see Elder Xuan for the next two days."
"What? You plan to challenge Elder Xuan? He's in the Law Enforcement Realm! In the entire sect, the most talented disciple under the age of thirty is only at the peak of Golden Core Realm."
"Hehe, I just want to see Elder Xuan. As long as we can enter the Sage Mystic Realm with Elder Xuan, we'll get lots of benefits."
The two inner disciples left as they talked.
Bai Weiwei watched them leave and fell into deep thought.
Master is in the sect's forbidden zone?
Sage Mystic Realm?
Underground Palace competition?
Bai Weiwei had planned to ask Xuan Yi how she could enter the mystic realm with him.
But she quickly abandoned this idea.
If she asked her master, perhaps her master would give a spot to her.
But from what she had just heard, many disciples had been questioning her abilities due to her performance in the Sword Worship Assembly.
It didn't matter if they questioned her, but she wouldn't allow it to impact her master's reputation!
Bai Weiwei's eyes became firm.
She thought to herself, "I'll show everyone in the sect that I, Bai Weiwei, have the right to enter this mystic realm. I won't let them say that I get the spot because of my master!"
At this moment, a majestic voice came from the sky. The owner of this voice was the sect master of the Profound Sword sect, Qing Xuzi.
"Disciples, I believe that everyone knows that the Sage Mystic Realm is about to open. This matter concerns the reputation and future of our sect. I hope that everyone takes it seriously.
"All the top 100 great sects of the south domain will participate in the exploration of the Mystic Realm this time. However, the quotas of each sect are different. Our sect has ten spots. The sect has already selected ten disciples from the last Sword Worship Assembly.
"However, considering that there will be some disciples who are not convinced by our selection, we have set up a competition in the Underground Palace for disciples to challenge the participants we have chosen! Anyone, either inner or outer sect disciples, can replace them as long as they can defeat the ten participants!
"Also, this mystic realm is restricted to those below the age of 30. People who do not meet the requirement must not attend the competition."
All the disciples of the sect, except for Xuan Yi who had yet to come back from the forbidden zone, heard the sect master's announcement.
Although the news had been spreading all over the sect in the past two days, it was finally confirmed by the sect master. Immediately, many disciples registered for the competition.
However, most of them were outer sect disciples of either Foundation Establishment Realm or Qi Condensation Realm because they wanted to take this opportunity to soar to the sky.
Even though they might encounter life-threatening danger in the mystic realm, they would not hesitate to do so!
After all, if cultivators couldn't face difficulties head-on, they had no right to be called cultivators!
On the other hand, the outstanding disciples who had access to the cultivation resources in the sect weren't that enthusiastic.
The Saint Mystic Realm was tempting but it was very dangerous. They had the resources they needed, so why would they risk their lives to obtain more cultivation resources?
Seeing the lack of interest in the outstanding disciples, Qing Xuzi felt bitter.
Then, his eyes lit up and he said, "Ahem, this time, Xuan Yi will lead the expedition."
His voice was not loud, but when people heard it, it was like a drop of cold water falling into hot oil.
The crowd immediately erupted.
"What? Elder Xuan is going too?"
"F*ck, sect master, you should have told us earlier. If Elder Xuan is going, then the trip is like a garden tour, right?"
"Oh my God, I'll go and register for the competition. I want to have a baby with Elder Xuan."
"Only those under 30 years old can enter. No wonder Elder Xuan has to go. He is only in his early 20s, but he has broken through to the Law Enforcement Realm. I guess his talent is as good as Sage Li's, or even higher."
"Yes, yes, elder Xuan is famous for his generosity. Even if we get nothing in the mystic realm, Elder Xuan will not let us return empty-handed. This is a sure win."
"Exactly."
...
Disciples swarmed to the entrance of the Underground Palace.
