Chapter 447: Protecting Core Interests
Chapter 447: Protecting Core Interests
October 16, 2024
After witnessing Su Chen's confrontation with Lu Kechi, those who had doubts about Su Chen now understood.
Indeed, anyone who dared to lay a hand on Sang Mo Yuan was truly capable.
For Su Chen, he only needed to face one more challenge to firmly secure his position among the top thirteen.
The current situation was still relatively advantageous for Su Chen.
However, Sang Mo Yuan was now facing some trouble.
Before the third stage of the martial arts tournament, Su Chen's ambush on Sang Mo Yuan and Jun Han had left them both injured, as witnessed by everyone.
Given this, they were now seen as easy targets.
Why not squeeze a soft persimmon?
Senior Jing, being unaware of the situation in Jin Kingdom, found it normal that Su Chen, a citizen of Zhou Kingdom, was unfamiliar with it.
After the previous tournament, Su Chen did not compete against them.
As time passed, the Primordial Seal seemed to have discovered Su Chen's resistance.
In an instant, his entire mental state seemed to fall into the mud and sand beneath his feet.
Even today, when facing Sang Moyuan, he managed to inflict some injuries.
To put it more appropriately, they are now afraid to make a move.
The illusory realm before him seemed to bring him endless benefits.
Why insist on crashing into those hard rocks? Although Fan Badao and his disciple are domineering, they can't stop others from challenging them in the Sacred Essence Tournament.
Seeing this outcome, many people turned their attention back to Su Chen once again.
Xu Junnian was even more dissatisfied, and to be honest, she was also somewhat unhappy with Xu Junnian's performance.
This result further told everyone that not only were Jun Han and Jun Han injured, but they also lacked the strength to resist.
For smaller sects, unless they encountered a genius like a descendant of a Sacred Realm cultivator, there was no chance for them to rise.
It was as if the Sacred Essence Tournament was telling Su Chen that to gain improvement and acquire powerful strength, he must submit to its will.
There were a total of thirty-five people who came to observe the Primordial Seal.
After resting for a night, it was time to observe the legendary Primordial Seal.
The Unity Stage powerhouses, who were usually high above, were now kneeling on the ground.
Su Chen took this opportunity to inquire about the younger generation of the Jin Kingdom.
When Su Chen participated in the Sacred Essence Tournament, he remembered that Palace Master Yao had not mentioned any rewards when she spoke to him about it.
Perhaps it was not appropriate to say it like that.
"Bow your head and be reverent."
No one knew how long it had been, but the illusory figure had already demonstrated the core points of cultivation and experience.
Why was there not a single one at the Sacred Essence Tournament?
Those who had come to observe the tournament with Xu Junnian and Ming Yao Yao had previously looked down on Su Chen due to their incident.
As they returned to the Jade River Inn, many from the Zhuming Palace and Rain and Wind Tower looked at Su Chen with different expressions.
Su Chen snapped out of his immersion.
Among them, there were even rumors of Second Rank and First Rank powerhouses.
"Seize the opportunity, touch it, and open your eyes to the front."
Today's tournament began early in the morning and continued until the afternoon.
Su Chen watched as the scenes in the illusory realm unfolded.
At midnight, the sky had already darkened.
Ming Yao Yao seemed to have understood Xu Junnian's thoughts.
Even Sang Moyuan and Jun Han were injured.
However, his gaze was filled with cold indifference.
Perhaps this was also a sign of his concern for Su Chen.
Su Chen harbored resentment in his heart, and he truly wanted to take revenge.
Now that he had arrived in the Jin Kingdom, the more he understood, the more he felt her superiority.
The Primordial Seal was an unadorned seal, yet there were no words engraved upon it.
After the disciples from the major sects took their turns, they became less cautious.
The honored one who rode the divine beast was brutally killed by the beast's hooves.
He stepped into the pit.
It was very similar to the first stage of the illusory realm.
His gaze kept shifting towards Su Chen.
For Su Chen, this also sparked some curiosity in his heart.
He still dared to make a move.
The sects that had not gained much from the tournament left on the second day with some rewards.
If he were to seek out Su Chen again,
The voice of the Primordial Seal's guardian echoed once more.
Daring to venture into the wilderness and battle celestial demons.
They couldn't see it, but that didn't mean he couldn't.
The results were out, and they had to stay at the Jade River Inn for another night.
The higher-ups of the Zhuming Palace had always looked down on Xu Junnian.
Recalling the first time they met, when she saw Qiu Ruofang, she was just a powerful cultivator from the Jin Kingdom.
In the ninth month, he would have to go to Tong Lu City.
However, Su Chen was unwilling to submit and kneel before the Primordial Seal.
If he had acted impulsively and lost his composure.
He observed the seal.
From the Ninth Rank Body Tempering to the Eighth Rank Refining Essence, each rank's core was revealed.
One after another, the surrounding realms of awe-inspiring cultivation appeared.
It was indeed closer to everyone's expectations.
Their arrival and claiming the top spot was almost a certainty.
The tournament had only progressed to the fortieth position.
Upon hearing these words, Su Chen nodded seriously.
The Elder Huang beside him also nodded and continued the conversation.
"Let me be frank with you.
In that instant, the scene before my eyes changed, and I found myself in an illusory realm once again.
It's possible that Senior Yin Nu's illusory realm was also related to the Primordial Seal.
I chose to give up without hesitation.
Ming Yao Yao could predict that Xu Junnian would do this, and she knew that the Palace Master, her grandfather, and the other elders would be informed.
Su Chen looked into the distance, where a thread of light was pulling him forward, leading him away.
Hearing these words, Xu Junnian still chose Su Chen as his opponent.
The correct version is available on the 69 Book Bar! 6=9+Book_Bar is the first to publish this novel.
Sang Mo Yuan was ranked forty-fourth, while Jun Han was ranked thirty-second.
At the same time, a voice spoke to him in his mind.
The seal appeared to be a shade of emerald green, and Su Chen turned his head to examine the side with the inscription.
It's hard to say how much he had recovered, but it was enough to intimidate many people.
In comparison, those who wanted to challenge Su Chen had disappeared.
This was a calculated move.
There were already few to begin with, and it's not certain that such a Heaven's Talent would appear in your generation.
Take Qiu Ruofang, for example, who had already become a Transformation Realm Powerhouse in her early thirties.
Those ranked in the top fifteen were considered to have seized the opportunity.
Especially those from Feng Yu Tower.
Tomorrow, I will go to see the Primordial Seal and claim the rewards I deserve.
Secondly, such talented individuals with this ability would participate in the Sacred Jade Tournament at a younger age and achieve outstanding results.
If you want to speak with them, you should ask yourself what you have to offer."
Some light could shine through, but it was impossible to see the situation inside.
Senior Yin Nu stood before the crowd, beginning to address them.
But Ming Yao Yao was even more dissatisfied with this display.
Su Chen's actions were not mere threats or intimidation; he genuinely wanted Sang Mo Yuan's life.
Logically, Jin Kingdom should also have experts who entered the Transformation Realm by the age of thirty.
One by one, the passing figures were all saints of the continent.
The medicine pill might not hold much significance for Zhuming Palace. Perhaps if they took it back, they would even be ridiculed by the Palace Master and the elders.
Upon hearing this, Su Chen couldn't help but nod in agreement.
Further up the rankings, even more people chose to forfeit their challenges.
The vast Jin Kingdom was indeed teeming with talents like clouds and stars.
In the center of this pit, a palm-sized seal was being lifted by the rising sand.
He didn't ask for anything, and he directly led the crowd away.
"Stand at the four corners and observe with your hearts."
Previously, the disciples from ordinary sects were still somewhat apprehensive.
Such a powerful individual at this time could be a saint capable of changing the world's order.
The other rewards, such as items, were of no use to Su Chen and the people from Zhuming Palace.
After about a quarter of an hour, Senior Yin Nu rose to his feet.
Sang Mo Yuan hadn't even made a move, yet he conceded with a sullen expression.
The surrounding illusions also presented more scenes, depicting a powerful figure who could split mountains with a wave of his hand, but who ultimately hanged himself from a peach tree on a mountain peak.
However, after the events of the day, this rigid impression had vanished.
It was Su Chen who had injured them.
Indeed, among the world's top talents, there was no one in their thirties who would still come to the Sacred Jade Tournament.
He seemed rather low-key and modest, but his actions were indeed astonishing.
But at this moment, he finally understood where these oddities originated.
Yet, Qiu Ruofang had also stepped into it.
By the time they grow up, they will have outgrown these tournaments for young people."
To put it simply, it's difficult for us to even ask for an audience with these top talents.
The original fresh air had become turbid at this moment.
The once-dry riverbed had collapsed, forming a large pit.
In his heart, he felt a hint of secret joy.
With the corresponding rankings, everyone was satisfied.
By submitting to it, one could touch this beautiful moment and reap countless benefits.
The tournament continued, and there were numerous challenges for the two positions where Sang Mo Yuan and Jun Han had lost.
However, at Su Chen's side, things felt a bit awkward.
Mo Liu Zheng, the little junior sister, was slightly weaker.
Almost all the top young martial artists had been recruited by the major sects.
Xu Junnian simply stood on the riverbed and conceded.
"Young people who can enter the Transformation Realm in their twenties are rare in the entire Jin Kingdom.
This peculiarity couldn't be explained, and Su Chen never managed to grasp it.
The outcome was not bad, and at least the elders of Zhuming Palace and Feng Yu Tower were more accepting of Xu Junnian's actions.
It wasn't just about using illusions to intimidate.
He even started using various methods, just like before, trying to consume Su Chen with illusions.
But it was thinking too much.
With the tempering of the Sacred Heaven Heart Decision, and the mental state he learned from Jingbo Immortal,
The Primordial Seal wanted to consume him, but it was thinking too much.
