Chapter 1427: Rumors of the Dao Observation Mountain Contest
More than ten years ago, when great changes happened across the world, Blood Kill Battlefield also became entirely different.
Back then, the emperor, the empress, the principal of Qinglu Academy, Blood Kill King Zhao Tailai and other important figures of the empire led a group of young cultivators onto Blood Kill Battlefield.
At the same time, influential figures of the Magi Brute Race also arrived on the battlefield with elites of the younger generation in their race.
Half a year later, in the depths of the Spirit Burial Sea, a mysterious and terrifying figure, who many called the Azure Emperor, opened up a great ancient array with his supreme means and unblocked the passage into Blood Kill Battlefield.
Since then, the Blood Kill Battlefield became a stage for the competition between the empire, Magi Brute Race and the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races.
Our empire camp is located in Yuncang Mountain which is about thirteen thousand miles away, and it is watched over by the Bloodthirsty Queen, Elder Zhao Xingye.
The Magi Brute Race camp is in the far west, more than twenty thousand miles away from Yuncang Mountain. The person in charge of them is an old monster from the Darkness Tribe called the Dark Blood Magi Saint.
The Alliance of Ten Thousand Races is located in the far east, nineteen thousand miles away from Yuncang Mountain. It is commanded by a Saint from the Herculean Demon Bull Clan.
Ye Xiaoqi guided Lin Xun and others towards Yuncang Mountain.
Along the way, he roughly briefed Lin Xun about the situation in Blood Kill Battlefield.
Lin Xun quietly listened, but he couldnt help gasping inwardly.
Who is that terrifying figure in the depths of the Spirit Burial Sea that all the ancient forces call the Azure Emperor?
He could actually open up a passage into Blood Kill Battlefield. His ability has to be beyond terrifying.
No wonder we encountered experts from the Winged Spirit Clan on Blood Kill Battlefield.
The emperor, the empress, the principal of Qinglu Academy and the others all left together after arriving at the Blood Kill Battlefield back then. They went to a place called Mulberry Woodland.
When Ye Xiaoqi said that, Lin Xuns heart pounded. Mulberry Woodland?
Yes, I heard that it is a true primal chaos origin land, and many unimaginable great opportunities and mysterious and unpredictable things happen there.
Ye Xiaoqi continued, Unfortunately, such a danger-ridden place is like a forbidden land to cultivators below the Saint Stage. Going there is no different from seeking death.
Lin Xun nodded.
Lone Man had already warned him before he came to Blood Kill Battlefield.
In Mulberry Woodland, it was not uncommon to see terrifying existences such as Saints, Big Saints, Saint-Kings and even Quasi-Emperors. It was beyond terrifying!
However, Lin Xun did not expect Mulberry Woodland to be a primal chaos origin land.
In addition to the emperor and the others, the big shots from the Magi Brute camp and the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races also went to Mulberry Woodland back then.
Ye Xiaoqi continued, If they hadnt, king stage cultivators like us would have struggled to survive here all these years.
Lin Xun nodded in agreement. Indeed. King stage cultivators might be terrifying to other cultivators, but in the eyes of Saints, we are just insignificant ants. If they were around, we would have no business here regardless of whether it is competing for opportunities and treasures or dealing with other affairs.
Right? Ye Xiaoqi smiled. Fortunately, those powerful figures have not been around all these years, so we managed to seize the opportunity to utilize the cultivation resources on Blood Kill Battlefield. As a result, in just over ten years, a large number of longevity king stage cultivators had emerged.
Ye Xiaoqi suddenly thought of something and couldnt help scrunching his brows. The only problem is that our empire camp is not the only group on Blood Kill Battlefield. Theres also another two camps here. Over the years, the different camps have frequently clashed over various cultivation resources, and battles have often broken out.
Ahh, our situation is getting worse and worse now. Not only does the Magi Brute camp regard us as mortal enemies, but the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races is also targeting us. Ye Hongxue sighed.
Have those two camps formed an alliance? Lin Xun wondered.
Ye Xiaoqi shook his head. Not exactly, but the Magi Brute Camp and the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races never interfere with one another.
I see. Lin Xun said thoughtfully, Its obvious that they think the empire camp is easy to bully, so they dare to be so blatant about it.
Then, he couldnt help but wonder, Has the empire not done anything in response?
The powerful figures have all gone to the Mulberry Woodland. Before they left, it was agreed that each of the camps would only be watched over by one Saint.
Ye Xiaoqi explained patiently, In other words, the competition between the three major camps is, ultimately, between king-stage experts like us.
Lin Xun said with a faint smile, And? Are our people not as strong as those from the other two camps?
Ye Xiaoqi immediately retorted, Of course not! Thats impossible. In these years, the experts of our empire have to fight against experts from both the Magi Brute camp and the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races at the same time. We have been at a disadvantage from the start!
Yes, its difficult to defeat four hands with two fists! Also, in recent years, the experts from our empire have always been ganged up on by the other two camps during the contest on the Dao Observation Mountain, which resulted in consecutive tragic defeats and the loss of many powerful people. This is also why the other two camps are getting more and more arrogant! Ye Hongxue added furiously.
Contest on Dao Observation Mountain? Lin Xun said puzzledly.
Ye Xiaoqi immediately explained.
It turned out that a peculiar sacred mountain existed in Blood Kill Battlefield, and on the summit cliff of the mountain stood a stone wall.
Every three years, complex and cryptic great dao carvings would appear on the stone wall on the summit cliff.
The great dao carvings were extremely magical. Anyone who observed and comprehended them would see tremendous improvements in their cultivation!
Moreover, the great dao carvings had an unimaginable miraculous effect on helping ones cultivation breakthrough.
Thus, the mountain was called Dao Observation Mountain.
However, strangely, the great dao carvings would only appear on the stone wall every three years. And each time, only one person could scale the summit cliff to observe and comprehend its profound meaning.
Initially, the three major camps, the Empire, Magi Brute, and the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races, broke into a fierce and bloody battle over the control of the mountain.
But in the end, it got nowhere, so they jointly agreed that, every three years, a contest would be held in front of Dao Observation Mountain.
The rules of the contest were extremely simple: Just fight!
In the beginning, each of the three major camps would select an expert from their side to take part in a one-on-one battle. The winner could ascend the mountain to observe the great dao carvings on the stone wall.
For the sake of fairness, the winning side would be disqualified from the next contest, leaving the other two camps to compete.
After understanding everything, Lin Xun couldnt help but ask, Then, does that mean the empire camp has not benefited much from the contest?
Ye Xiaoqi looked down with shame. Thats correct.
Ye Hongxue stated bluntly, In the first contest sixteen years ago, it was the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races that won. Then, thirteen years ago, it was the Magi Brute camp that won. Ten years ago, our empire camp finally won. But since then, the other two camps have taken turns to win in the Dao Observation Mountain contest
Lin Xun was almost speechless. Are you saying that the empire has only won just once?
Ye Xiaoqi nodded awkwardly.
But in two years, the Dao Observation Mountain contest will be held again. Our empire will definitely win this time! said Ye Xiaoqi resolutely after taking a deep breath.
Yes, we will definitely win. If it all goes well, within two years, Senior Brother Li Duxing will break through to the ninth longevity tribulation stage! Ye Hongxues eyes blazed fanatically, and her voice was filled with admiration.
The others eyes also shone with admiration and respect.
Li Duxing!
The image of a reserved and quiet young man in a black robe and with a pale complexion suddenly appeared in Lin Xuns mind.
Li Duxing left a very deep impression on Lin Xun when they were training in Blood Kill Camp. He was withdrawn and quiet, and his expression was always as cold as a block of thousand-year-old ice. He did little else apart from training with his sword.
However, Lin Xun knew that while Li Duxing had an ice-cold exterior, he was full of enthusiasm and passion inside.
This was because he had drunken alcohol with Li Duxing before. After a few drinks, he became very talkative, comparable to women who chatter endlessly...
This secret was known to only a few peopleLin Xun, Shi Yu, and Ning Meng.
If Lin Xun remembered correctly, after leaving Blood Kill Camp, Li Duxing went to train in Black Glory Sacred Hall because he possessed an extremely rare talent. His aeth power reservoir generated the phenomenon of the Dark Night Sword.
Li Duxing...hes also here... Lin Xun muttered in a trance. He hadnt seen the withdrawn and eccentric guy for many years.
Ye Xiaoqi chuckled, In addition to Li Duxing, Shi Yu, Ning Meng and Gong Ming are also here. They definitely will scream with excitement when they hear that you have come.
Lin Xun had made quite a few friends when he came to the empire, but there were only a few he considered as friends who shared weal and woe and who would die for each other. They included Shi Yu, Ning Meng, Ye Xiaoqi and Gong Ming.
They had all trained in Blood Kill Camp and had been through many things together in the Forbidden City of the empire.
However, they hadn't seen each other ever since Lin Xun left for the Ancient Wasteland Domain many years ago.
Lin Xun thought that Shi Yu and Ning Meng had also gone to the Ancient Wasteland Domain, but it turned out they had all come to Blood Kill Battlefield.
Look, thats Yuncang Mountain, our empires camp!
A quarter of an hour later, Ye Xiaoqi pointed ahead and sighed with relief. He felt a huge weight lifting off him.
Lin Xun raised his eyes and was greeted by a majestic and towering mountain shrouded in purple qi, standing between the sky and the earth like a pillar of the world. What a magnificent sight!
The nearby mountains all seemed ordinary when compared to it!
Yuncang Mountain!
Given Lin Xuns ability, he could immediately tell that the beautiful mountain shrouded in purple qi was a sacred place.
There was no lack of magnificent mountains and blessed lands in the nine upper realms of the Supreme Realm, but when compared with Yuncang Mountain, they were all undeniably inferior.
Blood Kill Battlefield is indeed extraordinary!
Lin Xun exclaimed to himself.
However, when their group neared Yuncang Mountain, they heard a piece of bad news
Li Duxing had been ambushed and was badly injured!
