Chapter 2075: Chapter 2076: Ancient Arena
The entire cave was filled with violent energy. At this moment, Ye Luo had completely turned into a bloody figure, his whole body torn open, a sight truly shocking!
Fortunately, with the presence of the Heavenly Mechanism Talisman, in the eyes of those monitoring, Ye Luo appeared to be merely meditating cross-legged, without any abnormalities!
The energy in the container had been absorbed by him halfway. After familiarizing himself with the effects of the energy, he felt at ease, and with the Great Saint Physique’s cultivation technique protecting him, there wouldn’t be any major problems!
At most, it was just self-torture!
However, Ye Luo now realized how painful self-torture was! At the same time, he deeply admired the creator of the Great Saint Physique. For him, this level of self-torture must have been routine.
Moreover, he discovered a problem!
The last time he used this energy to torment himself, his physical body became much tougher, but this time, there wasn’t the anticipated effect!
A simple explanation would be that his body probably developed resistance to this energy!
In that case, he had to refine the Dragon Bone!
"Recover for me!"
He growled softly and activated the Great Saint Physique’s cultivation technique. Instantly, the blood on his body solidified, and this energy began to be refined by him!
Though the effect wasn’t as intense as before, it was better than nothing!
After torturing himself for so long, there had to be some gains!
Afterward, he pressed the Dragon Bone remnants onto his body. According to the order of the Dragon Bones, refining it like this would better strengthen the body!
In fact, this was equivalent to a continuation of the body-switching technique! After all, the previous body-switching he received was merely Dragon Soul and bloodline!
This time, it was equivalent to the physical body!
...
The entire Kunwu Sect was filled with a joyful atmosphere.
All the disciples had changed into brand-new sect attire. Although located in the Sixth Region, perhaps Kunwu Sect wasn’t considered a major force, sometimes giving the impression of being reliant on the Dragon Clan!
But the real figures knew that the relationship between Kunwu Sect and the Dragon Clan wasn’t so harmonious. Although Kunwu Sect itself might not be respected by other forces, the power behind Kunwu Sect was quite extraordinary!
Fighting the Dragon Clan to a draw, could it be an ordinary force?
Therefore, many big figures were happy to give face to the power behind Kunwu Sect and attend the Kunwu Sect Master’s birthday banquet!
In truth, the Sect Master didn’t really catch the eyes of these big figures.
As such, the Sect Master wisely lowered his status, personally welcoming these big figures, arranging their accommodations, and always referring to himself as the junior!
Not only the Sect Master, but even the elders of Kunwu Sect were extremely busy!
These big figures seemed to come to celebrate, but in reality, they were harder to please than grandfathers. A slight mistake, if these big figures threw a fit, it would be unbearable for Kunwu Sect.
Besides these big figures, there were many young talents from various forces!
In the Martial Realm, strength was revered. To see the depth of a sect, it’s not about how many Supreme Elders there are, but about the younger generation!
After all, even with many Supreme Elders with decent strength, once they reach the end of their lifespan, it’s all in vain!
But the younger generation is different, representing the future status of this power!
Because of this, Kunwu Sect decided to showcase the strength of their young talents during the birthday banquet for those who came to celebrate.
If Kunwu Sect thought like this, wouldn’t other forces think the same?
After all, this Kunwu Sect birthday banquet was quite the grand event, coinciding with the selection of a Kunwu Sect Master candidate, stimulating the nerves of many big powers’ younger generation.
Therefore, even before the banquet started, the younger generation from various forces was already tense and on edge.
This was also a headache for the high-ranking members of Kunwu Sect, leading the Sect Master to gather the elders for an impromptu meeting.
"Family Head, far too many young talents have come this time, totally beyond our expectations. We need to prepare a dueling place for these talents, otherwise, if their resentment is vented on us Kunwu Sect, we cannot bear it!"
"That’s easy for you to say. These talents’ strength is not below ours. If we can’t guard properly and someone gets hurt, Kunwu Sect would become a laughingstock!"
"Indeed, but troubling the Supreme Elders for this matter, we would be criticized too!"
The elders sighed one after another. While big figures were difficult to serve, they were at least restrained. You couldn’t say that two big figures would just casually fight it out.
But the younger generation was different; they truly might start a fight for any disagreement!
The key was that these talents were strong, and once they fought, it would inevitably affect others.
The Sect Master pondered for a long time before raising his head.
"I have already discussed this matter with several Supreme Elders. After our discussions, we have decided to open the Ancient Arena!"
"What!"
Many elders exclaimed in shock, their faces immediately changing!
"Sect Master, be cautious. The Ancient Arena is a place of great danger!"
"The last time we opened it, it brought disaster to Kunwu Sect!"
The elders began to dissuade.
The Sect Master sighed, "Of course, the other Supreme Elders and I are aware of this. However, Kunwu Sect might seem glorious, but in truth, it’s riddled with crises. If they abandon us, we would have no chance of survival! The Dragon Clan would be the first to destroy us, so do we have another choice?"
After the Family Head finished speaking, the elders fell silent, but their faces bore the clarity of sorrow.
In the days approaching the Sect Master’s birthday banquet, a piece of news left all the forces coming to Kunwu Sect shocked!
The Ancient Arena of Kunwu Sect was unexpectedly going to be opened!
The younger generation might not know, but the older generation basically regarded it with fear!
The Kunwu Sect’s territory, during Ancient Times, was a massive trial ground!
Legend has it, all major powers used to come here for tempering. Of course, the trials in the Martial Realm were brutal, and thus with the repeated fall of many talents, this place naturally became one of great danger!
And so was the Ancient Arena even more so!
This ancient battlefield was once personally constructed by several big figures, primarily to resolve disputes among them!
It’s said that several Dragon Kings of the Dragon Clan fell here!
And countless other big figures from other clans fell even more so!
Though these big figures fell, their Divine Soul Power was preserved, akin to a Dragon Soul’s resentment. This Divine Soul Power was unlike an ordinary cultivator’s, filled with resentment!
