Started out getting scumbags, but then invested in the invincible Empress.

Chapter 63 Anyone who dares to touch you, I'll be the first to deal with them!

In front of the Xuantian Sect gate.

Including Li Wudao, the ten newly promoted disciples had been eagerly awaiting their arrival for a long time.

Not long after.

A flying boat, several hundred meters wide, approached from afar and slowly descended, kicking up a considerable amount of dust.

The flying boat was yellowish-brown, crafted from an unknown ancient tree, and possessed a simple yet imposing presence. A large flag was planted on its bow.

The three large characters of Xuantian Sect are imprinted on it, swaying in the wind with a majestic aura.

This is the sect's flying treasure, powered by spirit stones and true essence, capable of traveling hundreds of thousands of miles a day at an extremely fast speed.

Of course, the resources consumed are also extremely large, starting at tens of thousands of low-grade spirit stones. Only first-class sects have such resources.

Because the Hundred Flowers Secret Realm is too far away, new disciples cannot fly and can only use this as a means of transportation.

The sect's higher-ups attached great importance to this secret realm and directly dispatched two peak masters to lead the team.

One of them was Du Quan, the head monk of Ziyun Peak, an elderly man in his fifties with a kind face and white hair and beard.

The other person was someone Li Wudao was familiar with.

It was none other than Cheng Yuanliang, the leader of Lieyang Peak, with whom he had some prior conflict.

"It's that bald guy again!"

Li Wudao frowned, instinctively disliking this person.

Not to mention this bald guy, who helped Ruan Liangcai put pressure on him last time.

Based solely on this guy's slightly sinister appearance and arrogant demeanor, he was unwilling to associate with him.

"Ok?"

Cheng Yuanliang seemed to have sensed something, his gaze suddenly falling on Li Wudao, his expression uncertain, as if he was thinking about something.

After a few breaths, they slowly moved away.

"Could this bald guy be holding a grudge and having designs on me?"

Li Wudao felt a chill run down his spine and muttered to himself.

No wonder he thought that way; this bald guy didn't look like a good person at all.

"It's getting late, everyone, please board the ship."

Du Quan, the master of Ziyun Peak, stood on the eaves of the boat, greeting people with a smile.

"boom--"

Under the watchful eyes of many disciples, the ten true disciples boarded the flying boat one after another. Immediately, the boat shook and transformed into a rainbow, soaring into the sky.

As time passed, the atmosphere inside the ship gradually became somewhat strange.

One group of disciples, represented by Jiang Churan, sat quietly to one side, focusing solely on their cultivation and speaking sparingly.

On the other side, Li Wudao's disciples gathered together, chatting enthusiastically, their voices rising in a cacophony, creating a situation of "two extremes."

Among them, Qiu Zishi and Wang Zhao were the most enthusiastic, talking about everything and revealing a lot of embarrassing stories, which brought a lot of laughter.

Then, someone mentioned the secret realm, which attracted everyone's attention.

Do you know who discovered the Hundred Flowers Secret Realm?

One of the disciples spoke in a mysterious manner.

"Aren't they the three major sects?"

Others were suspicious.

"Of course not, it was Venerable Panlei who discovered it first."

"I know him. He was already famous in the Eastern Wilderness a thousand years ago, known as the number one person below the Martial Emperor realm. He is a person who can establish a sect!"

One disciple spoke with longing and great admiration.

"But what is the connection between Venerable Panlei and the Hundred Flowers Secret Realm?"

Akiko was puzzled.

The other disciples listened intently, which was also what puzzled them.

"Of course there is a connection. It is said that Venerable Panlei retired to the Hundred Flowers Secret Realm in his later years, and it is very likely that he left behind his mantle."

"So that's how it is. No wonder the secret realm only allows those with a bone age of twenty-five or younger to enter..."

Many disciples suddenly realized what was happening, and strange colors flashed before their eyes.

Just then, the Purple Cloud Peak Master also joined the discussion.

"You guessed right. The Hundred Flowers Secret Realm is very likely a test for Venerable Pan Lei to select his successor."

Du Quan stroked his white beard and said in a somewhat solemn tone:

"As far as I know, the mental cultivation method practiced by Venerable Panlei is a flawless royal-level technique called the Panlei Scripture, which is comparable to the sect's most treasured inheritance of my Xuantian Sect."

Royal-level cultivation technique...

Apart from Li Wudao and Jiang Churan, the remaining disciples were all shocked, their eyes wide open.

Even as true disciples, they can only practice ordinary Heaven-rank techniques. High-grade Heaven-rank techniques require sufficient sect contributions to exchange for.

Above the Heavenly Rank techniques, there are also King Rank techniques.

After the King Rank, comes the Emperor Rank cultivation technique!

Many disciples felt a burning sensation in their eyes and their breathing became rapid.

It's important to understand that the differences between different levels of cultivation techniques are vast; the higher the level, the higher the potential.

Under the same aptitude, a cultivator of Heaven-rank techniques is definitely no match for a cultivator of King-rank techniques.

This gap is not only reflected in combat strength, but also in cultivation speed and the level of cultivation bottlenecks.

"You ten are the best among the eligible disciples, which is why the sect has chosen you to enter the Hundred Flowers Secret Realm. This is a test, but also an opportunity. It depends on whether you can seize it."

Du Quan smiled wryly, his eyes filled with high hopes.

"Peak Master, if any disciple is fortunate enough to obtain the inheritance, should they hand it over?"

Someone couldn't help but ask.

"The Panlei Scripture naturally needs to be handed over to the sect. As compensation, a King-level cultivation technique can be provided. As for other treasures, the sect will not care about them."

Du Quan patiently explained.

The disciples had some reservations about this answer, but they could not find it unacceptable.

After all, royal-level cultivation techniques are of great importance. If they are spread out, they are likely to attract unwanted attention and could even bring trouble to the sect.

If one could obtain a King-level cultivation technique, it would be a great gain, and the trip would not have been in vain.

"We haven't even entered the secret realm yet, and you're already daydreaming?"

Just as the disciples were lost in their fantasies, Qi Xingyu suddenly poured cold water on their enthusiasm.

"What do you mean?"

Some people looked at him resentfully.

"What do you mean...? Do I need to spell it out for you?"

Seeing his defiant expression, Qi Xingyu sneered, "With your strength, you'd be cannon fodder even if you entered the secret realm. If you encountered a third-tier demon beast, you'd probably be reduced to nothing but bone fragments. Don't be delusional."

According to rumors, there are quite a few third-tier demonic beasts in the Hundred Flowers Secret Realm, and a very few are even comparable to the Great Perfection of the True Essence Realm.

Even with his fighting prowess, he could not withstand the attack and could only flee in disarray.

However, those great demonic beasts have extremely strong territorial awareness and are mostly located deep within secret realms, so they are generally not encountered.

"you........"

The disciple gritted his teeth, wanting to refute but finding himself speechless.

His performance in this newcomer competition was indeed mediocre, showing only the strength of the mid-stage True Essence Realm.

"If Junior Brother Peng can't do it, why can you?"

Wang Zhao curled his lip in disdain.

"Hmph, what does it matter to you whether I am capable or not? Why are you being so nosy?"

Qi Xingyu's face stiffened, and he frowned as he rebuked him.

Hear the words.

Wang Zhao glanced at him, grinned coldly, "Yeah, since it has nothing to do with you, why are you meddling? Mind your own business, are you just bored?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately garnered the support of many disciples.

Most of them were only at the early or middle stage of the True Essence Realm, and Qi Xingyu's words offended them, so naturally they wouldn't give him a friendly look.

He immediately stepped aside, his face showing disdain and indifference.

Seeing this scene,

Qi Xingyu's face darkened instantly, his hands clenched tightly in his sleeves, and his cold eyes fell on Wang Zhao.

"Your name is Wang Zhao, right? I'll remember you!"

After uttering this harsh remark, he withdrew his gaze.

Immediately, he sat alone in a corner, closed his eyes to rest, and said nothing more.

"Ugh......."

The Purple Cloud Peak Master looked at Qi Xingyu and shook his head slightly.

This kid is a bit too impatient; he can't just focus on internal strife.

He prayed silently that things would calm down after entering the secret realm, and that there would be no conflict or damage to their harmony.

The Lord of the Blazing Sun Peak remained indifferent to all of this, observing from the sidelines without any intention of interfering.

"Old Wang, it seems like he's keeping an eye on you. Be careful once you enter the secret realm."

Akiko looked worried and whispered a reminder.

In the newcomer competition, Qi Xingyu's strength was not to be underestimated, and he knew he was no match for him.

Wang Zhao nodded, showing no sign of regret.

That's just his temperament; he can't stand such ridicule and sarcasm, and even if it means suffering a bloody head, he'll still speak out for justice.

"It's okay, we can just stick together. If anyone dares to touch you, I'll be the first to deal with them."

Beside him, Li Wudao smiled faintly, trying to lighten the mood, showing no sign of worry.

Qi Xingyu is nothing more than a chicken or a dog; he's not worth his attention.

His voice wasn't deliberately lowered; it clearly reached everyone's ears.

The disciples all had different expressions, shaking their heads and winking, hinting that he should be careful what he said.

Although I don't want to admit it, Qi Xingyu's strength is indeed far superior to theirs, and I don't want Li Wudao to follow in Wang Zhao's footsteps.

Throughout, Jiang Churan sat cross-legged in the corner, aloof and detached, seemingly an outsider, completely unconcerned.

Only when Li Wudao opened his mouth did she subtly glance at him, showing a hint of concern.

Of course, the girl herself was unaware of this subconscious change.

"Li Wudao, come with me for a moment."

She suddenly stood up, quietly looking at the boy, her eyes as clear as water.

She turned and left immediately, her steps light and graceful, her white dress fluttering, her black hair smooth and silky, her figure elegant and charming.

"oh........"

Li Wudao responded and followed behind the girl, puzzled.

Amidst the envious gazes of the disciples, the two stepped out of the cabin.

at this time.

Qi Xingyu opened his reddened eyes and stared intently at Li Wudao's back, his jealousy and murderous intent reaching their peak.

"Damn it! They all deserve to die..."

He swore fiercely, then gave Wang Zhao a sinister glance.

That's right, besides Li Wudao, Wang Zhao was also on his kill list.

All of this was because the other party had talked back to him.

"Damn it, you've infuriated me! Once we enter the secret realm, I'll see how I kill you two!"
