Chapter 138 Finally Entering the Hall of Inheritance
Chen Yi estimated that with another 150 or so of these Thunderfire Gold Crystals, he would be able to complete the tempering of his entire body's jade bones.
During this period, besides tempering his jade bones and cultivating the Taiyi Longevity True Scroll daily, Chen Yi had a lot of free time.
Elder Xu Tianyue of Jade Dragon Bone has sent three messages, urging Chen Yi to enter the secret realm.
Chen Yi had no choice but to set off.
If it weren't for the fact that he had taken the money and had to do something, Chen Yi would have preferred to use up all the materials he had before setting off.
"However, it's fine to go now. With my strength, entering the third level should be a piece of cake."
"Furthermore, I will stay in the second level of the secret realm for a while longer, quietly absorbing some thunder pool liquid to replenish the thunder spirit runes and thunder crystals in my body before going down."
"Moreover, the Jade Dragon Sect's requirements are extremely simple: one only needs to enter the third level as a disciple of the Jade Dragon Sect and comprehend a stone tablet."
Such an easy task can be completed by simply slacking off.
It's the same whether you go in and practice your skills while swimming.
In any case, most of those prodigies have spent the past few months in the Inheritance Hall comprehending and cultivating.
Chen Yi thought to himself,
Finally leaving the rented cave, I dusted myself off, got up, and headed towards the entrance to the secret realm.
This time, because the Jade Dragon Sect had given prior notice,
It's completely free.
As Chen Yi entered the secret realm, he nodded slightly to the gatekeeper elder.
"Senior, I'll stay inside for another hour and then come out. I hope no one will say I'm wasting spirit stones, right?"
The elder turned his head and snorted coldly, ignoring Chen Yi.
Because he was the elder who guarded the entrance,
One-tenth of Chen Yi's 500 spirit stone subsidy for admission was deducted from his daily earnings.
Deep within the secret realm, a streak of light pierced through the air and arrived.
Chen Yi stood on the Jade Dragon Sect's standard flying sword, wearing the sect's specially made body-cultivation battle robe, the hem of which fluttered in the wind.
This flamboyant style is completely different from his usual approach, but it is exactly what he needs today.
When he landed,
An old Taoist priest was the first to recognize it and exclaimed in surprise:
"It's Xu Jiu, the strongman!"
Come and see, the Jade Dragon Sect has finally sent a master!
What did I say? This secret realm is located on the territory of the Jade Dragon Sect. They can't just watch outsiders take all the good stuff inside and they get nothing in return.
The Jade Dragon Sect has finally dispatched its secret prodigy to raid the Inheritance Hall!
The old Taoist priest was quite old, but his voice was loud and clear, drawing the attention of all the cultivators on the outskirts of the secret realm.
Normally, Chen Yi would definitely be extremely low-key.
But today, this is exactly the effect he wanted.
Chen Yi's lips curled slightly as he stood tall on his flying sword and laughed loudly:
"Old Taoist Master, your insight is truly remarkable! Since this secret realm is within the territory of my Jade Dragon Sect, it should naturally be returned to its rightful owner."
I, Xu, am not talented, but today I will retrieve what is rightfully mine for the sect.
"Gentlemen, I am Xu Jiu, a disciple of the Jade Dragon Sect. May I ask for passage?"
Before he finished speaking, his body shone with golden light, like the blazing sun.
The onlookers spontaneously parted to make way for them.
With a light touch of his toes, Chen Yi transformed into a golden lightning bolt.
In just a few leaps and bounds, they had covered a distance of several hundred feet.
It plunged straight into the thunderous array outside the Hall of Inheritance.
The lightning array surrounding the Inheritance Hall, and the lightning array on the first floor, were no match for Chen Yi.
He went straight to the second floor.
at this time,
The four prodigies from Zhongzhou all entered the third level.
The two prodigies of Qi, Qin Chengcheng and Ning Bu'er, also joined the ranks.
Qin Chengcheng had just gone in.
Previously, after Qiu Li obtained part of the inheritance from the third stone tablet on the third floor, she returned to the second floor once.
She secretly passed on a mnemonic to Qin Chengcheng.
This allowed Qin Chengcheng to enter the third level under the protection of the Divine Soul Secret Technique.
Of course, this was also because Qin Chengcheng had studied the Thunder Pool at the center of the second floor for several months and gained considerable insights.
As for Qi Wuba, Qi Yourong, Qi Yunxi, Feng Qingjun, Leng Jianfei, and two other prodigies, as well as some top geniuses from other sects large and small in the Qi Kingdom,
On the second level, there was still no way to safely break into the danger zone.
In fact, quite a few people didn't even go into the latter half of the second floor, the area with the Tier 3 high-grade lightning field.
As soon as Chen Yi entered, his distinctive bald, muscular appearance was recognized by many people.
"Haha, Brother Xu, you've finally arrived!"
Qi Wuba was cultivating the Thunder Spirit Body Tempering Technique in a mid-level third-tier thunder field area. He was the first to greet Chen Yi.
Others naturally turned their attention to it as well.
"Excellent! Hurry up and enter the third level. The geniuses of Qi Kingdom are almost completely wiped out. If no more outstanding talents enter the third level..."
"It seems the Thunder Soul Hall's inheritance has been snatched away by the people of Zhongzhou!"
Qi Wuba had entered the third level himself and knew how strong it was inside.
At this moment, he only had confidence in Xu Jiu.
However, Qi Wuba's words drew the attention of all the Qi Kingdom's geniuses who were cultivating around him.
Qi Yunxin was displeased. This Xu Jiu wasn't a good person; he was petty and calculating.
Moreover, despite possessing the talent of a lightning spiritual root, she has only grasped a small part of the way to enter the lightning pool and has not yet dared to fully venture into it.
What gives Xu Jiu the right to do this?
Leng Jianfei, a sword cultivator among the Qi Kingdom's prodigies, looked displeased.
"Fellow Daoist Wuba, we can't even enter this Thunder Pool. You admire Xu Jiu so much, be careful not to bet on the wrong treasure."
Besides,
"Our Qi state has many outstanding talents, each with their own unique abilities. When have we ever needed someone to lift the cauldron?"
At this moment, Qin Chengcheng and Ning Bu'er, whom he liked most, had already entered the third level, and Leng Jianfei was quite anxious.
He was eager to impress the female cultivators, hoping to win their hearts during this secret realm expedition.
Seeing that the swordsman from Zhongzhou had used up all his magic power to condense a sword intent and then broke in, he couldn't help but feel a little frustrated.
At the same time, they were well aware that not just anyone could enter these three levels of the Thunder Pool Pass.
Now that Qi Wuba is praising Xu Jiu, he is naturally even more displeased.
Chen Yi ignored the swordsman. With his current strength, he could easily crush the top talents of the Qi Kingdom.
At least they can easily protect themselves without worry.
Especially those with weaker attack power might not be able to break through Chen Yi's defense.
Normally, he would have handled it discreetly.
But now he comes representing the disciples of the Jade Dragon Sect, carrying the mission of enhancing the sect's reputation.
At this moment, he humbly said:
"Brother Wuba, you think too highly of me."
However, even if Xu were to enter these three floors, it would be useless.
We, the cultivators of Qi, should unite and all go in.
Only in this way can we compete with the geniuses of Zhongzhou.
Xu, alone, was ultimately outnumbered and outmatched.
Chen Yi's voice was loud, which made Leng Jian fly even faster.
"Bald guy! What a big mouth you have! Do you think you can just walk into the three-tiered forbidden zone like that? And you dare to talk about unity?"
The proud sons of Qi each possess their own strengths.
If we want to unite, whose orders should we follow?
"Are you suggesting we listen to a strongman like you?"
Chen Yi glanced at him coldly and uttered four words: "Clown jumping around."
"You!" Leng Jianfei was furious.
Since meeting Qin Chengcheng, he has regarded her as a goddess and has long harbored resentment towards "Xu Jiu" who has frequent contact with Qin Chengcheng.
"Take my sword if you dare!"
Chen Yili ignored him, his body glowing with golden light as he entered the late-stage third-tier lightning field.
Under the stunned gaze of everyone,
Chen Yi walked towards the Thunder Pool in the center.
Although the lightning liquid in that lightning pool was only of mid-grade third rank, it was far superior to that in the lightning field.
Lightning strikes in a minefield are intermittent and occur only occasionally.
That lightning liquid can soak a person, which is equivalent to being attacked by countless lightning bolts at the same time.
Even if they are very fast, they are still extremely dangerous to cultivators whose strength has not reached the Core Formation stage.
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Chen Yi, surrounded by golden light, strolled leisurely through the late-stage third-order lightning field.
Dense bolts of lightning and lightning snakes exploded around him, but they could not penetrate the solidified golden light.
When he arrived at the edge of the Thunder Pool, the entire space trembled slightly due to the agitation of the Thunder Spirit.
Everyone stared wide-eyed.
Chen Yi first dipped one hand into the Thunder Pool, and it was instantly engulfed by the boiling thunderous magma.
Everyone closed their eyes, unable to bear watching. A normal Foundation Establishment cultivator was utterly defenseless against being enveloped in mid-grade third-tier lightning plasma.
However, the next moment, a flash of golden light appeared in Chen Yi's hand, and he took it back unharmed.
It's like washing your hands in there.
Everyone examined it closely and found that Chen Yi's arm was completely unharmed, as if it had not been touched by lightning.
"Impossible! Could it be that the power of this Thunder Pool has decreased?"
Leng Jianfei looked skeptical.
But then Chen Yi, with his bald head, turned around and grinned at everyone. Then, amidst gasps of surprise, he was enveloped in golden light.
He charged straight into the Thunder Pool!
next moment,
At the entrance to the three-tiered Hall of Inheritance, a burly, bald man with a head gleaming with golden light appeared.
Everyone sensed it, turned around abruptly, and saw that it was Chen Yi.
Qin Chengcheng was the first to show a look of surprise, then her expression became knowing, as if to say: I knew you could come in, you've finally arrived!
When Ning Bu'er and the little monk turned around and saw that it was Xu Jiu, their expressions didn't change much.
Entering the third floor was perfectly normal for Xu Jiu.
When Zuo Shouqing and Young Master Ji of Zhongzhou saw the bald Xu Jiu for the first time, they looked him over with scrutiny.
I've heard of this young man many times, but this is the first time I've met him.
Judging from his abilities, he is indeed quite capable, managing to enter the third level.
However, the two only glanced at Chen Yi a few more times before looking away. Currently, one was studying the second stone tablet, and the other was studying the third.
The progress is already far ahead.
The two of them, along with Qiu Li, were in the first tier.
Qiu Li was fighting the Thunder Lion of the third stone tablet. She only glanced at Xu Jiu with her divine sense and then paid no more attention to him. She knew Chen Yi's identity.
"Benefactor Xu! Quickly, these stone tablets should contain many useful secrets. You should try to pass the test first. As long as you defeat a Thunder Lion, you can understand one of the stone tablets."
With your strength, you can easily break through the first three stone tablets.
The young monk himself only comprehended the first stone tablet, but he urged Chen Yi to forge ahead bravely.
Chen Yi roughly observed the situation on the entire third floor.
The lightning field, almost entirely covered by a third-tier high-grade lightning field,
There are nine thunder-covered stone tablets in total, and a small thunder lion crouches in front of each tablet.
Several people have already pondered the meaning beneath the first three stone tablets, or confronted the thunder lions beside the stone tablets.
Chen Yi roughly sensed the strength of those thunder lions.
Each one was stronger than the last, but at least the first three Thunder Lions posed almost no threat to Chen Yi.
Chen Yi sensed the state of everyone.
Qin Chengcheng is currently studying how to confront the first Thunder Lion.
Qiu Li, wait, could this woman be Qin Chengcheng's friend from Zhongzhou? She has a decent appearance, quite different from the ugly woman who came to his shop.
However, this woman seemed to know my true identity.
A thought flashed through Chen Yi's mind, and he decided to put even more thought into this woman.
This woman, at this moment, also displayed extremely powerful divine sense and lightning spirit magic talent.
He was currently meditating at the third stone tablet.
The young monk and Ning Bu'er seemed somewhat wary, and they were also meditating at the first stone tablet, without using their full strength.
Chen Yi roughly understood, then clasped his hands in a fist salute to the little monk and said:
"Young Master Linghui, please don't be so harsh on me. This place is extremely difficult for me to move an inch."
Xu will probably need to return to the second floor to reflect further, and will have the opportunity to come back here again to learn from you all.
After speaking, to the astonishment of Linghui and Ning Bu'er,
Chen Yi was promoted and returned to the second floor.
Chen Yi easily passed through the entrance to Lei Chi.
As Chen Yi traversed the Thunder Pool, the lightning crystals within his body flickered, and 30 lightning spirit runes lit up.
The system's power was also quietly operating, absorbing the lightning spirit power in the lightning pool bit by bit.
This absorption effect did not significantly reduce the power within the Thunder Pool.
No one could tell the difference.
Meanwhile, the thirty-first Thunder Spirit Rune within Chen Yi's body slowly lit up.
When everyone saw Xu Jiubiao's stylish bald head emerge, they were all stunned.
Qi Wuba's eyes widened, and he slapped his thigh with great regret, saying:
"Brother Xu, how come you came out so quickly?"
"Going in once is incredibly difficult, and to come out and go back in again—how much damage would you suffer, how much of your life force would you expend...?"
Qi Wuba represents the sentiments of everyone, because it's difficult for anyone to even get in once.
So this guy went in for less than ten breaths and then came out again?
Won't he get hurt?
However, before Qi Wuba could finish speaking, Xu Jiu's body lit up with a purple light from the lightning crystal, and he reached his hand into the lightning pool again.
Furthermore, he was still pondering as he stretched.
The flames, golden light, and lightning crystal radiance emanating from his body were constantly shifting.
At the same time, he was muttering to himself, seemingly trying, pondering, and analyzing various things.
next moment,
Xu Jiu took two steps back and sat cross-legged on the edge of the Thunder Pool, in the most intense part of the Thunder Field, and began to meditate and comprehend.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
This is a dangerous place that everyone would risk their lives to cross, and you're using it to wash your hands repeatedly?
And he sat right next to the Thunder Pool and began to meditate and comprehend it?
For a moment, everyone was a little confused.
Qi Wuba, who was also a body cultivator, seemed to have guessed something and blurted it out.
"Brother Xu? Could it be that you've advanced to the third level of Body Refinement?!"
After these words were spoken, the entire room fell silent.
Third-tier body refinement?!
It seems that only this possibility fits Xu Jiu's current situation.
Having guessed this possibility, even the most sarcastic Leng Jianfei dared not utter any more words about taking his sword.
After all, although his sword was powerful, it was still no match for a third-tier body cultivator.
Chen Yi, however, was truly comprehending the truth at this moment.
He discovered a secret about the Hall of Inheritance.
