Chương 149: Everything on the line, state of sudden enlightenment

The battle sequence was soon decided and only one seeded team was up against another opponent in the first battle. The Moonlight Cult was up against the second seed of their group, who had won seven battles straight without a single defeat in the individual's group stage.

"Gusion, you can settle this battle alone." The Moonlight Cult Master stated calmly as his disciple, Gusion, stepped onto the platform to face off against the six other opponents.

As for his six seniors, there was no need for them to make a move for now. Since he was able to be in full control of the situation back in that particular dimension, there was no reason for him to be incapable of doing so against seven others who were weaker than him.

The Sect Master of the opposing Tiger Tier Sect questioned in anger, "What is the meaning of this? Do you think that one disciple in the Martial Lord sixth realm can defeat my disciples in the Martial Lord fourth realm and above?"

Even though the Moonlight Cult Master was being taunted, he brushed it off with a smile and said with confidence, "You'll see it soon enough."

Gusion had already stepped onto the combat platform at this time, arrogance was written all over his face as ten daggers supported by his mental energy orbited around him.

"System, I would like a detailed analysis of this person immediately."

Under usual circumstances, Ace would be unable to gain information about anyone without spending any system points, but since Gusion was related to the system's quest, he was entitled to this privilege.

Host's cultivation: Martial Lord First Realm

System points: 0

That was Ace's current state and to make matters worse, he had no clue as to how he could obtain more system points even after around two years. Ace would obtain some whenever he made a breakthrough back then, but ever since he surpassed the Foundation Realm, that advantage he had soon vanished.

"System, am I unable to gain system points with each cultivation realm breakthrough?" Ace asked in his mind, but the system's reply to this question surprised him.

"That function has always existed as an achievement reward. The only reason the host didn't receive the achievement rewards, was because you wanted to rely on yourself instead of the system. But now that the host has learnt to control the advantages the system can provide while maintaining a clear vision of your future, the achievement function will be unlocked."

"Congratulations to the host for stepping into the early-stage Martial Master Realm, 100 system points will be awarded!"

"Congratulations to the host for stepping into the Martial Spirit Realm, 10k system points have been awarded."

"Congratulations to the host for stepping into the Martial Lord First Realm, 50k system points have been awarded."

After half a minute had passed, the notification sound finally concluded as Ace stared at the current amount of system points he possessed in shock.

System points: 70.64k

"Due to the host having more than 10k system points, the Mystic Grade System Shop will now be open. Please work hard to accumulate 100k system points at a time to unlock the Earth Grade System Shop."

"System points will now be tied to the sect points and used as a whole for the host to gain independence and make serious decisions by yourself."

The next moment, a list of items below 100k system points was displayed to Ace.

Emperor Creation Elixir: Miraculous effects in assisting a Martial King Realm cultivator to breakthrough into the Martial Emperor Realm. 20k system points

At first thought, the Emperor Creation Elixir might seem overpriced, but it was indeed a rare elixir that only the pinnacle alchemists of the Fragmented Cultivation World could concoct. To put it simply, only 7th-grade alchemists that corresponded to Martial Emperor cultivators were capable of refining this elixir with a low success rate of 20% under the best conditions.

Not to mention that the main reason Martial Kings were suppressing their cultivation and limiting their lifespan to five hundred years, was because of the heavenly tribulation they would have to face when breaking through into the Martial Emperor Realm.

In the Divine Realm, most cultivators have superior cultivation talent and could cultivate their laws to a much higher extent than cultivators of the Fragmented Cultivation World. This made it easier for them to step into the Martial Emperor Realm even if it means facing a heavenly tribulation that was much more disastrous.

Omnipotent Spiritual Vein: A spirit vein that can constantly grow and develop when nourished with Divine Crystal Essence (rare material of the Divine Realm), currently of the 4th grade. 50k system points

(Spirit veins will also be classified from the 1st to 9th grade from now on, note: there are grades above the 9th grade)

It was expensive, but without any hesitation, Ace decided to purchase it after he returned to the Nirvana Sect.

As for the rest of the items, they were of great use, but Ace would only consider buying them when the need for them arose.

By the time Ace exited the system shop, the battle between the Moonlight Cult and the Tiger Tier Cultivation Force had already concluded. One move. Gusion defeated all seven opponents with just seven of his ten daggers. The battle ended in an instant while the battles on the other platforms were still in progress.

"Gusion, you can return." The Moonlight Cult Master ordered upon seeing that Gusion had no intentions of leaving the platform.

Gusion wanted to mock his opponents, but he was apparently more fearful of the Moonlight Cult Master as he turned around and left the platform immediately.

The Paladin Haven was currently in a battle with another Tiger Tier Cultivation Force, but it was apparent that the Paladin Haven had won the battle with just Grace alone.

As for the next battles, the teams that were lucky enough to avoid the seeded teams all won their opponent based on the expectations of the crowd.

As for the teams that were up against the seeded teams, none of them was even close to defeating their opponents.

But there was a cultivation force that everyone held high hopes for in defeating a seeded team. The Magic Tower.

Craze might only be in the Martial Lord Second Realm, but everyone believed that he and his seniors were capable of defeating the disciples of the Nirvana Sect that were barely in the Martial Lord First Realm.

Over the past year, the disciples of the Nirvana Sect had made full use of the Foundation Rebirth room to strengthen their foundation, cultivated under the spirit tree to comprehend laws in just the Martial Spirit Realm and experienced battles in the Life and Death Realm constantly.

They were young, but their strength all originated from the same place. The Nirvana Sect and their desire to grow stronger.

"All of you should stand back later, if they can't even defeat someone as young as me, there's no need for you guys to make a move." Ray stood out and stepped onto the platform, barehanded.

"I'll take on all of you alone." Ray taunted as he configured a tiny bird that stood on his index finger.

"You're being too arrogant!" Craze replied with a pillar of flame that rose from the ground to take on the shape of a dragon.

"Fire Style: Dragon's breath!"

The dragon puffed a beam of flame towards Ray who sent his bird to face off against the dragon.

"Verdict has been made, the bird shall defeat the dragon effortlessly and gain its powers," Ray stated calmly, his confidence getting on the nerves of the others of the Magic Tower as they configured their respective magic arrays.

"You'll regret messing with the Magic Tower!"

"If you die right here, you can only blame yourself for being this arrogant."

Ray however remained calm in face of the threats that surrounded him. "Verdict has been made, your attacks should be nullified by my magic barrier."

The next moment, a magic barrier protected Ray from the approaching attacks and by the time his opponents managed to sort their thoughts out, the bird had already devoured the dragon and was dashing towards the centre of their formation.

"Final Verdict, the bird shall explode and send all of you off the stage."

"Boom!"

The explosion took place, the disciples of the Magic Tower sprawled on the ground, humiliated but unharmed.

The various cultivation leaders were attracted to this scene, they understood that this was only because of the vast difference in their spirit energy. But more importantly, this youth by the name of Ray had more than perfect control over his spirit energy, he had even stepped into the realm that most wouldn't even be close to in their life.

The Realm of Control, a peculiar realm that only the chosen could step into. The Devil Envoy was the only one who knew the true prowess of this realm. Even in the Divine Realm, there were only fewer than a hundred cultivators that were in this realm, but none of them were this young and even the first to awaken it was in his forties and in the Martial Saint Realm.

The Devil Envoy told Ace about this immediately.

"I see, it seems that Ray has already gained independence and is walking his own path. I should probably do the same as his sect master." Ace sighed with a calm reaction as his slaughter law faded away. He was cutting off his current cultivation of the slaughter law totally. He was now in a state of sudden enlightenment. If he fails, he would lose his combat strength to a large extent, but if he succeeded, he would open up a new path.
