Six Realms Immortal Emperor

Chapter 49 The Temptation of Rewards

Xu Jingtian and Dongfang Siyu were talking, which made Dongfang Sixing, who was standing to the side, extremely jealous. After all, his relationship with Dongfang Siyu was closer than that with Xu Jingtian.

Dongfang Siyu didn't even ask him about the situation, but instead inquired about a servant of the Dongfang household, which made him feel extremely embarrassed. However, despite his dissatisfaction, he dared not show it in front of Dongfang Siyu.

"So what? My cultivation has also reached the second level of Qi Refining," Dongfang Sixing said with a sneer. The reason his cultivation had increased so rapidly was entirely due to the elder's medicine forcibly boosting it. Hmph, Xu Jingtian was also able to reach the second level of Qi Refining, which must be inseparable from Elder Yuezhi's pills.

"Really? You've also reached the second level of Qi Refining?" Dongfang Siyu's beautiful eyes then drifted towards Dongfang Sixing.

"That's right. No matter how bad I am, I'm not worse than a servant, am I?" Dongfang Sixing said disdainfully.

Dongfang Siyu seemed to understand him perfectly and didn't mind his attitude. She chuckled and said, "No matter what, you all come from the Dongfang family. I will treat you all equally. Let's work together to bring glory to the Dongfang family."

As Dongfang Siyu finished speaking, she suddenly felt something was wrong. She turned her head and noticed that there was a beautiful female disciple next to her, staring at her intently.

Dongfang Siyu smiled slightly at her, then, unperturbed, continued speaking to Xu Jingtian and the other two: "The wilderness trial will begin in a little while. There are many disciples participating in the trial, including quite a few with Qi Refining Level 3 cultivation. You must not clash with them. Remember, in the cultivation world, everything is based on strength. If you encounter someone strong, you should be patient."

There was another sentence that no one else could hear; it was a sound transmission technique used by Dongfang Siyu that directly reached Xu Jingtian's ears.

"You've probably already seen the storage bag I gave you last time. In case of danger, you can use the magical artifacts inside."

Xu Jingtian smiled knowingly. In fact, even without Dongfang Siyu's reminder, he had always carried the storage bag with him, just in case.

Dongfang Siyu gave them a few more instructions before flying away on her sword with peace of mind.

"Is she Senior Sister Siyu?" Li Wanruo asked Xu Jingtian as soon as Dongfang Siyu left.

"Yes, she is Dongfang Siyu, the eldest daughter of our Dongfang family. Her cultivation is now extremely high, and she has entered the ranks of elite disciples." Xu Jingtian praised Dongfang Siyu endlessly, and even glanced in the direction she flew away.

However, he didn't notice the displeasure on Li Wanruo's face. Xu Jingtian couldn't understand a young girl's thoughts at all, and he didn't care.

Because of Dongfang Siyu, Xu Jingtian and his group became particularly eye-catching, attracting the attention of the surrounding disciples. The moment Dongfang Siyu flew away, it caused quite a commotion.

Xu Jingtian could certainly feel the many eyes watching him, some filled with envy, some with jealousy, and some with ill intentions.

Suddenly, he turned around and looked at a group of disciples a few feet away. He didn't know if it was because of his improved cultivation, but his spiritual senses had become unusually sensitive. Just now, he could feel an unfriendly gaze behind him, which seemed to pose a threat to him.

However, after carefully searching through his disciples several times, he found no one suspicious.

Who could it be? Or is it just my imagination?

"What, did you see someone you know again?" Dongfang Sixing was still bothered by what had just happened.

"That's not it," Xu Jingtian said calmly. He naturally wouldn't say anything he wasn't sure about, especially since it was based purely on intuition. Even if he said it, the other person wouldn't believe it; it would only invite ridicule.

Xu Jingtian didn't focus his gaze on any particular direction, but instead scanned the entire crowd around him. This way, he wouldn't attract the attention of any peeping toy and risk being discovered.

At the same time, the disciples around him were pointing and whispering. Xu Jingtian's casual glances around seemed like a natural human reaction.

Most of these disciples were older than them, and must have entered the Brahma Sect a few years ago. Most of them were only at the second level of Qi Refining, and there were even a few at the first level of Qi Refining who wanted to broaden their horizons. However, most of them attached themselves to the disciples with higher cultivation levels.

It's worth mentioning that a small number of disciples have already reached the third level of Qi Refining, and some of them are even considered cultivation geniuses. They specifically participated in the wilderness trial this time, partly for the reward, but also for an important reason: to gain practical combat experience here.

Cultivating magic is merely a powerful means of attack, while actual combat not only allows one to master magic to a high level, but also forges a physical body that surpasses that of a cultivator, laying a solid foundation for improving one's cultivation.

Therefore, for cultivation, actual combat is the most important thing. No matter how high your cultivation level is, you will still have to use it to fight enemies in the future. Wilderness trials are just the best place to cultivate.

In addition, those who rank among the top in the wilderness trials will receive rewards from the sect and will also receive attention from higher-ups, laying the foundation for their entry into the inner sect.

This is why some outer disciples, even those who have reached the third level of Qi Refining, are not in a hurry to advance to the inner sect.

Fortunately, the surrounding disciples were all there to participate in the trial and did not pay attention to Xu Jingtian and his group for long before turning their attention to the exceptionally talented disciples.

"Look, isn't that Qu Feixiong?" one of the disciples who was closer to them said, pointing into the distance.

"Indeed, it really is him. He has only been a disciple for three years, yet his cultivation has already reached the third level of Qi Refining. He truly deserves to be called a genius youth." Another disciple in front of him exclaimed.

Xu Jingtian also turned his gaze to where the person was pointing. In the crowd, a tall and slender young man caught his attention.

"In my opinion, he's the clear winner of this year's trials!"

Another person argued, "That's not necessarily true. No matter how good Qu Feixiong's aptitude or how high his cultivation is, it's useless if his magic is not good enough. He may not be able to defeat those senior disciples, and it will be difficult for him to win first place."

"Yes, what you said makes sense. Our Brahma Sect has thousands of outer disciples, and there must be many hidden talents among them. Sometimes, geniuses may not be able to defeat mediocre people. At crucial moments, strength is still the most important factor. That Lu Yikuang also has a chance." The outer disciple pointed to another indifferent young man.

This person is named Lu Yikuang. He has been in the Brahma Sect for four or five years, and only recently reached the third level of Qi Refining. However, it is rumored that his magic has been cultivated to an astonishing level, which is why he has become famous and a focus of attention in the outer sect.

Lu Yikuang was not old, only about twenty years old. He had a cold and stern face and was full of arrogance. Xu Jingtian couldn't help but take a few more glances at him.

Lu Yikuang was indeed a master; he actually reacted and glanced at him, but after seeing Xu Jingtian and the people around him, his face was full of disdain.

Xu Jingtian could only smile wryly. It seemed that his cultivation level was too low, and the other party did not take him seriously at all. He would have to work harder to cultivate in the future.

"They're here! They're here!"

"The elder has arrived!"

Just then, a commotion arose nearby. Xu Jingtian and his companions looked over and saw several disciples dressed in white Taoist robes flying over on their swords and landing on a nearby hilltop.

Judging from their attire, these disciples should all be elite disciples among the inner sect disciples.

"Isn't that Senior Brother Yan Gang?" Dongfang Sixing recognized him at a glance.

Xu Jingtian looked up and, sure enough, it was him. The other man was looking down at him with that same domineering air.

"You know that senior brother too?" Gu Tianxing asked with some envy.

Xu Jingtian and Dongfang Sixing not only knew someone as powerful as Dongfang Siyu, but also an elite disciple like Yan Gang, which made Gu Tianxing realize that the two were no ordinary people. It seemed that his decision to befriend them was absolutely correct.

Gu Tianxing had already secretly decided that as long as he could get along well with Xu Jingtian, he would never have to be afraid of Zhu Wanli and his ilk again.

"Hmm," Xu Jingtian replied casually. He guessed Gu Tianxing's thoughts immediately, but only he knew the true nature of his relationship with Yan Gang.

Dongfang Sixing said with a smug look, "Of course! When the two of us first entered the sect, it was Senior Brother Yan Gang who personally led us up the mountain!"

Xu Jingtian rolled his eyes at him. Si Xing was really shameless. Yan Gang hadn't even given them a second glance back then.

Just then, one of the older disciples stepped forward and announced to the disciples in the valley: "This wilderness trial begins today and ends in three days. All outer disciples participating in the wilderness trial will be ranked according to the number and quality of wild beasts they kill."

"I wonder what the reward will be this time?"

"I don't know, it seems to be different every year, and the rewards get more generous every year." People in the crowd couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

"Quiet down, everyone!" the senior disciple said, looking at the crowd below. "The first place winner in this year's trial will be awarded a high-grade magic weapon, twenty Spirit-Stabilizing Pills, and three Five Elements Blood Coagulation Pills. The second place winner will be awarded a mid-grade magic weapon, ten Spirit-Stabilizing Pills, and two Five Elements Blood Coagulation Pills. The third place winner will be awarded a low-grade magic weapon, five Spirit-Stabilizing Pills, and one Five Elements Blood Coagulation Pill. The fourth through tenth place winners will each be awarded two Spirit-Stabilizing Pills."

The rewards clearly show that the more talented a person is in a sect, the more attention they receive. Those who rank in the top three receive far more generous rewards than those who rank in the bottom three.

"Ah, a top-grade magic weapon, and the Five Elements Blood Coagulation Pill!" Even an ordinary outer disciple would be excited for a long time just thinking about it.

The Spirit-Solidifying Pill is already very precious to outer disciples, let alone the Five Elements Blood-Condensing Pill, which even inner disciples envy. Moreover, the first to third place winners will receive magical artifacts as rewards, with the first place winner receiving a high-grade magical artifact.

It should be noted that it is not easy for an ordinary inner disciple to obtain a low-grade magic weapon.

The Brahma Sect is now offering such generous rewards, which is incredibly tempting for outer disciples.

However, for most outer disciples, these rewards were just something they could dream of. They all knew that these rewards always went to the genius disciples, and there was no chance for them.

Looking at the exceptionally skilled disciples, each one was eager to try, their fighting spirit rising steadily as the trial drew near. The rewards were simply too tempting for them.
