Chapter 788: Divine Source Secret Realm
Su Jingzhen, Xue Ning, Yan Xia, Qiu Yaoyao and their group of four gathered together again.
Today, their expressions were somewhat serious.
However, they didn’t say much and left directly from Qiu Yaoyao’s estate, heading towards the northern region of the Four Waters Divine Realm.
Qiu Yaoyao summoned her contracted beast, Hei Tong, and transformed into its true form to travel.
Behind them, an elder from the Heavenly Dragon Race in the Great Perfection Realm followed silently, guarding them.
After all, there were three core disciples of the first sequence here, and the Heavenly Dragon Race couldn’t afford any mistakes.
The participants from the other major powers in the Four Waters Martial Arts Competition were also led by their respective elders.
In the northern part of the Four Waters Divine Realm, there was a secret realm called the Divine Source.
Every Four Waters Martial Arts Competition was held in the Divine Source Secret Realm.
When they arrived at the entrance to Divine Source, it was already packed with people.
Many forces had set out before dawn and were waiting here.
At the entrance to the Divine Source there was a huge square for the various powers to watch.
Above the square was a huge array, which was currently silent, floating in the air like a mirror.
According to the legend, this array could connect to all the scenes within the secret realm of the Divine Source.
As soon as the participants of the Four Waters Martial Arts Competition entered, the array would activate, allowing the young talents of the various forces to be observed in real time.
Around this array, countless seats were tightly arranged.
After all, although the Four Waters Divine Realm in Zhongzhou was only considered a medium, the number of divine realms in Zhongzhou was huge.
Those forces that were friendly with it, and the neighboring divine realms, would generally show up to observe the ceremony.
Even some rival divine realms would come to watch the spectacle.
After all, the performance of the young disciples was crucial to the future of a divine realm.
Of course, for such a big event in a mid-level divine realm, the super divine realms and super powers in Zhongzhou would also come to watch.
Some of the old super powers in Zhongzhou, when they needed to absorb new blood and attract new disciples, would often recruit from such divine realms.
People have high aspirations, and joining a more powerful power for cultivation was very common in Zhongzhou.
Just like if Su Jingzhen were to be recruited by another super force, it wouldn’t mean that he was no longer part of the Heavenly Dragon Race.
On the contrary, it would increase the Heavenly Dragon Race’s influence in Zhongzhou.
By this time, the reputations of young geniuses like Xuan Jin, Jian Ling, Xuan Su, and Han Qianxue, including Qiu Yaoyao, were already well known.
They had attracted the attention of many powerful forces in Zhongzhou.
This Four Waters Martial Arts Competition was especially grand.
When Su Jingzhen and the others arrived, most of the seats in the arena had already been filled.
Several representatives of powerful forces from high-level divine realms were already seated.
As time passed, half an hour later, everyone who was supposed to be there had arrived.
The whole place was almost full.
At this moment, the Heavenly Dragon Lord, Heavenly River Sect Master, Shangling Sword Sect Head, and Eternal Water Immortal Sect Head all appeared simultaneously.
They stood on a high platform formed by energy.
Of course, at such a time, some formalities were inevitable.
However, Su Jingzhen filtered them out and looked directly at the vortex passage slowly rotating behind the array.
This was the entrance to the secret realm of the Divine Source.
At the same time, Su Jingzhen looked at the most prominent seats in the middle of the plaza.
The people sitting there exuded an extraordinary aura, and he knew that they were from the ancient major forces of the high-level divine realms, but he didn’t recognize any of them.
Of course, he didn’t think about joining any other force at this moment.
Staying with the Heavenly Dragon Race was just fine.
With the system, as time passed, he would eventually become invincible in this world.
“Sister Yaoyao, according to the information, the top ten in this Four Waters Martial Arts Competition will receive rewards.
There is a mysterious grand prize for the first place, right?
What is this mysterious grand prize?”
Su Jingzhen asked Qiu Yaoyao curiously.
Qiu Yaoyao shrugged her shoulders, “Well, if you ask me, who should I ask?
I only know that the rewards from tenth to second place are provided by the four great powers of the Four Waters.
As for the first place, the reward is jointly provided by the three super powers here to observe the ceremony.
Super divine realms have existed in Zhongzhou for countless years, and their depth is beyond our imagination.
Anyway, the reward from them won’t be bad in such a setting.”
As she said this, a hint of anticipation flashed in Qiu Yaoyao’s eyes.
While they were talking, they suddenly felt several gazes land on them.
Su Jingzhen followed the gazes and saw that another group of young geniuses from the Heavenly Dragon race had gathered on the other side.
Xuan Jin was at the forefront.
Even many young disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Race who had arrived with them were now surrounding Xuan Jin.
Obviously, Xuan Jin’s charisma in the Heavenly Dragon Race was much stronger than Qiu Yaoyao’s.
Although many young members of the Heavenly Dragon Race were infatuated with Qiu Yaoyao, they didn’t dare to show it.
This was because everyone knew that Xuan Jin always considered Qiu Yaoyao to be his exclusive property.
No one dared to challenge Xuan Jin’s authority in the Heavenly Dragon Race.
Of course, Su Jingzhen was an exception.
Seeing the looks from Xuan Jin’s side, Qiu Yaoyao’s lips curled into a smile.
She subconsciously held Su Jingzhen’s hand again, as if declaring her ownership and challenging Xuan Jin.
Xuan Jin remained expressionless, appearing very calm.
But a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
Since the Banquet of Elegance last night, he had become a laughing stock in the Four Waters Region.
And it seemed that all of this was due to Su Jingzhen.
It would be a lie to say that he wasn’t resentful.
He had never hidden his affection and tolerance for Qiu Yaoyao, but what was she doing now?
Perhaps he, Xuan Jin, was already wearing a green hat in everyone else’s eyes.
At this moment, countless gazes filled with mockery were directed at Xuan Jin.
Since the Ji and Yan clans had no other participants in the Four Waters Martial Arts Competition, the young talents from other top forces like the Heavenly Sword Sect and the Earth Fiend Sect mostly gathered around Xuan Jin.
These people had one thing in common: they didn’t like Su Jingzhen, or rather, they were jealous of him.
Therefore, they naturally gathered together.
However, Su Jingzhen didn’t care at all.
Because at this moment, Jian Ling, Han Qianxue, Xuan Su, and other young talents from the three major forces of the Four Waters quietly stood by his side.
And the three goddesses, when they looked at Su Jingzhen, all had a smile on their lips, expressing goodwill.
The countless observers and veteran experts from various forces participating in the competition naturally understood the situation by looking at the positioning of these young people.
“Has the Heavenly Dragon Race finally produced a rival to Xuan Jin this time?
That little guy seems to be quite popular among these young girls.”
“On the surface it seems so, but I noticed that the little guy’s aura isn’t very strong.
He seems to be a body cultivator, and according to the records, his cultivation is only at the Body Sovereign Realm, which is merely comparable to the Unity Realm.
Xuan Jin, on the other hand, has long since reached the later stage of the Celestial Being Realm, and should already have entered the Great Perfection Realm.
The two of them seem quite incomparable.”
“But that’s what makes it interesting.
This Four Waters Martial Arts Competition has many outstanding participants from various powers.
Jian Ling, Han Qianxue, and Xuan Su, these three young girls are no less famous than Xuan Jin of the Heavenly Dragon Race.
This competition should be a fierce battle between dragons and tigers.”
“…”
Many veteran cultivators from the four major powers were discussing this.
At this moment, Su Jingzhen also noticed the gazes of the three major forces sitting in the most prominent positions, constantly looking at him.
His brows furrowed; he didn’t like such a high-profile situation.
“Lord, that is Xuan Jin of the Heavenly Dragon Race. According to the records from our Frozen Ice Domain, this guy should have already reached the Great Perfection Realm, and his cultivation age is less than two hundred years.
He is a rare genius in Zhongzhou.
If there’s a chance, our Frozen Ice Domain can absorb him.”
“As for Han Qianxue of the Heavenly River Sect, Jian Ling of the Shangling Sword Sect, and Xuan Su of the Eternal Water Immortal Sect, these young people might be on par with Xuan Jin, but overall, Xuan Jin seems to be the best.”
At one of the prominent positions, a black-robed elder was smilingly explaining to a white-robed woman.
The woman had an extremely extraordinary aura.
But those with insufficient cultivation couldn’t see her true face.
The people from the ancient forces in the central positions looked at this old and young pair with quite serious expressions.
When the black-robed elder introduced the various geniuses, the beautiful woman smiled.
“So Xuan Jin is the number one genius in this Four Waters Divine Realm?
But why does it seem that the guy called Su Jingzhen is getting more attention?
What do you think of Su Jingzhen?”
Upon hearing the woman’s words, the black-robed elder was taken aback.
“Lord, according to the records, Su Jingzhen is only at the Body Sovereign Realm as a Body Cultivator.
He is quite famous in the Luo River Basin, but mainly because of Qiu Yaoyao, he relies on a woman for his fame.
His specific battle records are limited to fighting ancient demon kings in the Divine Kingdom, but the authenticity is hard to verify.
So he seems to fall short of Xuan Jin in comparison,”
The black-robed elder said objectively.
The white-robed woman smiled again and nodded, “What if I say that the first place winner of this Four Waters Martial Arts Competition will be Su Jingzhen? Do you believe it?”
At this, the black-robed elder’s brows furrowed.
His gaze scanned the participants of the Four Waters Martial Arts Competition.
Shaking his head, he found it hard to imagine a cultivator from the Body Sovereign Realm becoming the first among a group of geniuses from the Celestial Being Realm and the Great Perfection Realm.
“Lord, I find it hard to agree with that.”
The white-robed woman didn’t care and smiled, “Let’s see.”
…
After another incense stick time passed, all the participants in the Four Waters Martial Arts Competition were ready.
Heavenly Dragon Lord and others exchanged glances, and their auras suddenly surged.
This time, Su Jingzhen could clearly sense that their aura had reached the Spirit Immortal level.
The master of the Heavenly River Sect, the head of the Eternal Water Immortal Sect, and others were also at this level.
Each of the four of them had a mysterious power, and they simultaneously took out a dark golden token and activated it.
The vortex passage behind the mirror-like array slowly opened.
“The Divine Source Secret Realm Gate has opened. All participating disciples from the Four Waters region can enter and compete for the Divine Source for two months.
After two months, the ranking will be determined by the amount of Divine Source each participant has obtained.”
