The Great Xia Dynasty's Longevity Begins with Connecting to the Swallowed Starry Sky

Chapter 404 The Seven Sects Martial Arts Tournament, The Beginning

The phrase "Shangqing Realm" terrified everyone present.

Su Ru's eyes also lit up as she looked at Qin Hao, her face full of disbelief.

She also didn't know Qin Hao's background.

Among those present, perhaps only Tian Buyi was able to remain calm.

This is because, two years ago, he already knew that Qin Hao had advanced to the ninth level of the Jade Purity Realm.

With his talent, it wouldn't be difficult for him to advance to the Upper Clarity Realm in two years.

Even so, a fleeting look of shock crossed his eyes.

If you look closely, you'll see that he doesn't know Qin Hao's specific situation either.

Qi Hao's voice had changed.

In my heart, I was already somewhat uncertain about my purpose in coming to Dazhu Peak.

Just as Tian Buyi said, Master Cangsong Zhenren's previous plan was to come and show off.

Back then, there were three orphans in Caomiao Village.

Qin Hao ascended the Azure Cloud Ladder, and no one knew his situation.

But everyone knows that he has excellent qualifications.

Of the remaining two, Lin Jingyu possessed astonishing talent and spirituality.

This can be seen from Lin Jingyu's cultivation at Dragon Head Peak over the past few years.

He has already leaped forward, becoming stronger than many of his senior brothers who entered the sect earlier, and has advanced to the fourth level of the Jade Purity Realm ahead of others.

Zhang Xiaofan was of dull talent, and none of the chief disciples were willing to accept him back then.

In the end, he had no choice but to give it to Tian Buyi after being pressured by Dao Xuan Zhenren.

Master Cangsong wanted Qi Hao to bring Lin Jingyu over to amaze him, as a show of force to Tian Buyi.

Although Zhang Xiaofan was only at the third level of the Jade Purity Realm, he had already surpassed many of his fellow disciples.

Not to mention the menial disciples.

There's no need to think about it at all.

Zhang Xiaofan, at the third level of the Jade Purity Realm, defeated Lin Jingyu, who was also at the third level of the Jade Purity Realm. It was clear at a glance that the magic weapon he used was extraordinary.

However, the third level of the Jade Purity Realm remains an insurmountable obstacle for him.

"Not bad, I was fortunate enough to advance to the Upper Clarity Realm."

Qin Hao smiled and said calmly.

In that situation, how could there be any talk of luck?
However, it seems as simple as eating a steamed bun for lunch.

"Can……"

Qi Hao gritted his teeth; he had the utmost respect for his master.

Since his master had given the order, nothing could stop him: "That cannot cover up the fact of this blood refinement."

"What fact?"

Qin Hao casually tossed the bamboo branch in his hand, and it remained intact, with the green leaves still perfectly preserved.

Qi Hao's magic weapon, though not as powerful as the Nine Heavens Divine Weapon, is still a rare and formidable weapon.

It didn't break the ordinary bamboo branch at all.

This gave Qi Hao a shocking, even unbelievable, feeling.

The opponent's strength is not simply that of an ordinary Shangqing Realm cultivator.

Bitter.

It seems that Master's plan will not be able to be realized.

Qin Hao said, “Any treasure refined with blood, no matter what, will have a bloody aura. Now look at this Soul-Seizing Staff, where is it…? Hmm, it does have a bloody aura, but that's only because of this Blood Source Bead. But look, where is there even a trace of demonic cultivation?”

Qi Hao was taken aback.

He just didn't expect it.

Seeing that Zhang Xiaofan was only at the third level of the Jade Purity Realm, I subconsciously felt that although he had not reached the level of controlling objects, he could still wield magical treasures.

If that's not a treasure refined through blood, then what is it?
But now, when he looked at that magic weapon again, he couldn't sense any demonic power at all.
Its shimmering, clear light is truly a treasure of the righteous path.

"But he came to the third level of the Jade Purity Realm."

"So what? Your Dragon Head Peak may not have this treasure-refining technique, but my Great Bamboo Peak certainly does," Qin Hao said loudly.

In that tone, Dragon Head Peak was belittled to the dust.

Then, before Qi Hao could say anything more, Tian Buyi nodded and said, "Yes, how could Cangsong possibly know about the treasure-refining techniques of my Great Bamboo Peak?"

This tone is even more derogatory.

But Tian Buyi could say that Qi Hao couldn't, and he felt that Qin Hao couldn't either.

Can……

"I do not believe."

"I don't care if you believe me or not. Who are you? What are you? How dare you interfere in the affairs of my Great Bamboo Peak?" Qin Hao said disdainfully.

Qi Hao opened his mouth, but really didn't know what to say.

This is because, although the Qingyun Sect is divided into seven peaks, the affairs of each peak are generally under the jurisdiction of its own head.

Even if the sect leader, Dao Xuan Zhenren, wanted to interfere in the affairs of Dazhu Peak, he would have to ask Tian Buyi, the chief disciple.

Before Qi Hao could ask any more questions, or even before he could say anything, a single case was insufficient to explain the situation.

But he did think of that, and his eyes lit up; he was just about to speak.

Qin Hao had already taken out quite a few beads.

"Come, come, in the past two years, besides going into seclusion, I have also refined some magic treasures, all of which can be directly refined and activated with just the first level of the Jade Purity Realm."

"Come, come, here are the Wind-Stabilizing Pearl, Water-Repelling Pearl, Fire-Repelling Pearl, Nine Thunder Pearl, and Youth-Preserving Pearl. Everyone has one."

Qin Hao took out pearls one by one from his hand.

Colors vary.

It seems that everyone has their own set.

“Master’s wife, this Youth-Preserving Pearl is something I specially made for you. As long as you wear this Youth-Preserving Pearl, you can keep your appearance from fading and make your skin more delicate.”

Qin Hao did indeed use pearls to refine these various magical treasures.

Although it cannot compare to the divine weapons of the heavens, it is still a first-rate magic weapon.

Most importantly, it can be refined and used at the first level of the Jade Purity Realm.

"Oh, right, there's also this Snow Condensation Pearl. It's not very useful, except that it emits cold air. We can use it to chill fruit and keep food fresh. I'll put one in the kitchen so we won't have to worry about ingredients."

Qi Hao swallowed hard; he still had a cooling bead in his sleeve.

This treasure was all of Qi Hao's magical artifacts, which he later gave to Tian Ling'er.

Although the Cooling Bead cannot be used for attack, defense, or to assist in cultivation, it has a unique function—beautifying and protecting the skin, which is very attractive to women.

Originally, he intended to give this treasure to Tian Ling'er.

Because this trip to Dazhu Peak was destined to offend Tian Buyi.

Qi Hao had already planned that if he offended the other party, he would give the magic weapon to Tian Ling'er.

That should ease the situation somewhat.

Seeing Tian Ling'er now, Qi Hao suddenly had the idea of ​​taking things further.

It would be best if I could win this girl's heart.

Unfortunately, the magical weapon he originally wanted to use was now unavailable.

Although Qin Hao disliked Tian Ling'er, he still gave her a set.

With the Youth-Preserving Pearl in hand, what else is there to offer with this Cooling Pearl?

"Indeed, it's a wonderful treasure." Su Ru held the pearl in her hand and immediately felt the Youth-Preserving Pearl begin to function.

It constantly absorbs the surrounding spiritual energy to nourish its skin. And it feels very refreshing.

At this time of year, the weather is one of the hottest.

Su Ru was already a bit irritable.

But at this moment, as soon as she got her hands on the Youth-Preserving Pearl, she felt the temperature around her decreasing.

Until it is maintained at a very suitable temperature.

Qin Hao smiled and said, "Alright then, I'm just testing the waters and practicing casually."

"It really is a good treasure." Du Bishu laughed: "Indeed, it only requires a little refinement to be as easy to use as an extension of one's own arm."

"This bead?" Tian Ling'er originally wanted to find an explanation for Qi Hao.

But she casually refined it a couple of times and threw out a bead, which grew larger and fell to the ground.

boom.

Then, the impact created a crater in the ground.

"Oh, that's the Heavy Earth Bead. Holding the bead and standing on the ground, you can continuously draw power from the earth to restore your magic power and even heal injuries. Of course, just like the method you're using now, the Heavy Earth Bead can also be infused with magic power and used as a magic weapon to injure enemies."

Qin Hao said calmly, "Let's see if Qi Hao still has the face to take out the Cooling Pearl."
How could a man over a hundred years old try to deceive a naive teenage girl?
Although this little girl is a bit vain and naive, and doesn't know what good things are.

It's just a mere cooling bead.

At this moment, Qi Hao's face was indeed very troubled.

Everything he had planned could no longer proceed.

The magical treasures that I considered very precious, the other side not only brought out even better ones, but also brought out many of them at once.

Even Tian Ling'er, who seemed to have a slight affection for him, could easily refine and use the magic weapon.

Then the wooden stick magic weapon from before should not have been a blood-refined treasure.

Because he couldn't see any trace of demonic power in that magical artifact.

Tian Buyi nodded in satisfaction, rubbed his chin, and said to Qi Hao, "By the way, what changes did you mention to the Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament?"

Qi Hao swallowed hard, momentarily hesitant.

According to Master Cangsong Zhenren, eight people emerge from one peak.

Who can defeat Qin Hao?

But what if he said that Qin Hao was not allowed to participate?

Qin Hao had only been a student for a few years, and he joined at the same time as Lin Jingyu.

Does that mean Lin Jingyu is also not allowed to participate?
This is obviously not possible.

"What? Didn't Cangsong send you here to demonstrate? Why can't you say it now?"

Tian Buyi burst out laughing at this moment.

Qin Hao alone has already made him extremely proud.

Not to mention Qi Hao, even the other chiefs would be astonished.

Zhang Xiaofan, on the other hand, originally had no hope.

But Zhang Xiaofan also decisively defeated Lin Jingyu.

If it's not about saving face, then what is it?
Qi Hao hesitated for a moment, but still said, "There have indeed been some changes. Reporting to Uncle Tian and Uncle Su, the situation is as follows: In previous years, during the 'Seven Lineages Martial Arts Tournament,' each lineage under the Qingyun Sect sent four people."

In addition, four more people from the Tongtian Peak of the Changmen Sect will join, bringing the total to thirty-two. They will then draw lots to determine the winners, who will advance in the next round. This process will continue for five rounds, with the final winner becoming the most outstanding young member of the Qingyun Sect and receiving the careful guidance of their teachers.

Su Ru smiled gracefully and said, "Speaking of the last grand examination, you were quite the star. I remember you were the runner-up, right? If it weren't for Xiao Yicai from the Changmen sect, you might have won the title of Martial Arts Champion of the Qingyun sect."

This can be considered as giving the other party some face.

Su Ru was also quite adept at using elaborate sedan chairs to carry people.

But at that moment, Qi Hao swallowed hard.

This was a championship he was determined to win.

But now he dared not speak.

With a master of the Upper Clarity Realm present, even Xiao Yicai from the previous generation, who was only at the ninth level of the Jade Clarity Realm, wouldn't dare say he could defeat him.

But Qi Hao still forced himself to say, "My master, Master Cangsong, believes that the original intention of the 'Seven Veins Martial Arts Tournament' is to discover promising talents among the disciples of each vein and cultivate them."

Today, Qingyun Sect has nearly a thousand disciples, especially the younger generation of new disciples, many of whom are exceptionally talented.

Considering this, an opportunity that only comes once every sixty years, with each lineage producing only a handful of four individuals, is far too few.

Therefore, my master suggested that each of the seven lineages send nine disciples, with the eldest lineage having the most, plus one more, making a total of sixty-four. From there, the competition would proceed as before, with matches drawn by lot, for a total of six rounds, to determine the winner. This would also prevent any outstanding talents from being overlooked.

Tian Buyi and Su Ru exchanged a strange glance.

His Dazhu Peak lineage has fewer disciples and lower aptitude, which at first glance seems to give him an advantage, but in reality, the Changmen Tongtian Peak and Cangsong Longshou Peak, which have the most disciples and talents, are far more advantageous.

But now that Qin Hao has appeared, nothing is certain anymore.

Dazhu Peak doesn't care about anything else; as long as Qin Hao appears, winning first place in the Seven Peaks Martial Arts Tournament will be a piece of cake.

Tian Buyi laughed heartily: "When Cangsong made the suggestion, he probably didn't know that I had a seventh brother, who had already advanced to the Shangqing Realm, right?"
Now, things are much better. Go back and tell Cangsong that I agree.

I just don't know how he's going to exclude me, his disciple, again.

Qi Hao was inwardly groaning, but he didn't know what to do.

I had no choice but to bite the bullet and say a few words.

Before leaving, Qin Hao said, "Jingyu, we are from the same village after all, and we grew up together. Xiao Fan accidentally hurt you just now; that was a magic weapon I crafted."

Therefore, I will give you this set of four elemental orbs: Earth, Fire, Water, and Wind. No matter the circumstances, wielding these four orbs will allow you to heal your injuries.

Therefore, there's no need to give you any more pills.

"By the way, your Dragon-Slaying Sword complements these four spirit orbs perfectly, enhancing your sword's power by a factor of three."

As he spoke, Qin Hao flicked a set of four spirit orbs over.

Lin Jingyu was taken aback and quickly reached out to catch them, but the four spirit orbs landed right in his hand.

"Thank you, Qin Hao."

Qi Hao, who was also named Hao, felt very aggrieved.

Finally, Qi Hao looked at Tian Ling'er, wanting to say something.

But I was short of money and couldn't come up with a good gift.

His words and actions have unnecessarily made him disliked.

"Then, my two senior uncles, Jingyu and I will take our leave."

"Go."

This time, Tian Buyi's complexion was much better.

Although the disciple's intentions were not pure, since he had lost face, he had at least vented his anger.

There's no need to hold grudges against the younger generation.

Qi Hao's mouth was dry, but in the end he could only force himself to turn around and leave with a bewildered Lin Jingyu.

Lin Jingyu had no idea that he had other purposes for coming today.

He was simple-minded, but he had already thought of something.

Zhang Xiaofan was the only one who didn't understand anything.

At this moment, I was still a little confused.

Tian Ling'er's face was filled with complex emotions.

Qin Hao had no idea how the other person felt about him.

This is only our first meeting.

Let's see what she chooses from now on.

Tian Buyi, unaware of Tian Ling'er's thoughts, glanced around and said, "Let's go back and have a proper talk."

No one else spoke; they all lowered their heads and followed Tian Buyi inside. (End of Chapter)
