“I didn’t understand the rules here until I came to the First Immortal Layer.”
Yan Ziye continued, “The top ten holy sects in the previous battle don’t need to attend the battle of thirty-three immortal layers. The ten black thrones above are actually ten small cultivation spaces for them to wait.”
Su Li’s eyes glittered, and said in quiet voice, “It seemed that no one attended the previous Tianjiao Battle, right?”
Yan Ziye bitterly smiled, “Yes. The talents in Qingshui Circle were dead, resulting in temporary shortage. The previous top ten in the Tianjiao List were determined by Tianyake Attic, respectively the great holy boys of top four holy sects, Xiuluo Holy Sect, Void Sword Sect, Han Sect, Ciyun Building,and Shenbei Holy Sect. Among them, Shengtian Shrine took up two positions. You may see it on the Tianxing Stone outside. In fact, this ranking has changed before long because Tianyin Tribe is destroyed, which really poses a thorny problem to Tianyake Attic.”
Su Li nodded. That Ling Li ranked first was beyond reproach, but she was quite surprised that Ling Xian could ranked the sixth position.
After all, in the Reincarnation Mirror, Ling Xian was not an important role, while others, such as Su Qingtan and Yan Ziye, often appeared in certain stages of her hypocritical previous life.
“Ling Xian…”
Su Li narrowed her eyes to look up at the sixth black throne, and then quickly saw back expressionlessly.
Meanwhile, Ling Xian who closed her eyes for rest in the black throne space, suddenly opened her eyes with uncertainty inside.
“Why did I feel flustered just now?”
Ling Xian subconsciously adopted the Gongfa Tactics, but paused. She frowned and loosened her gesture.
In the Shengxian Mountain, the art of divination was ineffective, so she could not foresee the fright by any means.
“It is an irresistible that Ling Li has joined in the Fate Palace. Will there be an exception? Who dare offend me?”
A hint of gloomy expression emerged on Ling Xian’s fair face.
…
The battel would last for a whole year. In this course, some practitioners would be promoted, some eliminated, and others died. Finally, there were only 20,000 practitioners in the First Immortal Layer to enter the next round.
However, the rules of the First Immortal Layer were different from that of the other 32 layers. It was a point race with implicit rules and the battle quantity depended on one’s strength. So no one exactly knew his battle number and time.
After Su Li learned about this information from Yan Ziye, she had no choice but accepted the rules.
It was a competition among all talents of the whole Qingshui Circle. One year was actually a very short time.
Su Li felt very boring, and then took out Thatched Cottage Essayto read.
It was shamed that when Su Li started to learn Destruction Will of Sword in the Star Path, she spent little time on it. Now she made few achievements on it.
Ye Che had lived for at least 40,000 years! He had an extraordinary perception on the sword law. If Su Li could understand this booklet and fully master the Destruction Will of Sword, her power of sword law would at least double.
People who came to the First Immortal Layer were capable and clever. Most sat cross-legged to quietly improve themselves, and others were watching the battle to learn some experience.
The Tianjiao Battle pooled the top 20,000 talents in the Qingshui Circle. Each battle had a highlight that was very exciting. If there was an extremely wonderful battle, even Su Li put down the booklet to watch it.
After a few leisurely days, Su Li finally ushered in her first battle.
“Ranking 13,690 vs. ranking 8,890!”
After the cold sound in the nothingness, Su Li only felt the jade token in her hand slightly hot, and then she was transported to the middle of the ring. When she saw her rival, her expression suddenly became odd.
“It is her!”
When the talents who were watching the battle saw this situation, they all excited.
“This woman has been promoted here for a few days, and it is her turn now!”
“Su Li ranks 13,690, and almost enters the Tianjiao List. Her initial ranking is quite good, so this woman is unusual!”
However, when everyone saw the person opposite Su Li, they began to show their regret.
“It is really unlucky for her to fight against Zheng Shu!”
“Yes, although the Jiguang Palace is only a top-grade sect, Zheng Shu’s performance is not less than that of the holy sect! Zheng Shu must have some fortune in these thousand years; otherwise, how could he be from the Yuanying Realm directly to the top Huashen Divinity!”
“In addition to the several superpowers, the cultivation of top Huashen Divinity is almost the top in the list. Zheng Shu would definitely have been ranked in the top thousand if he battled more.”
“I think it’s still hard to tell who will win.”
Suddenly, Yan Ziye who was silent laughed casually, and the crowd stopped their discussion.
Although they did not agree with Yan Ziye, it was this unknown person that had killed the one among top two hundred sects with one attack.
“I know you.”
A smile appeared on Zheng Shu’s gloomy face, “Before entering the mysterious realm, you were of the Jiguang Sect.”
Su Li raised her eyebrows slightly and laughed lightly, “Sometimes what you saw is not always true.”
“You are afraid now?”
Zheng Shu couldn’t restrain his anger, and then his smile turned vey hideous,“You dared to humiliate our Fenguang Palace so much at the Tianyake Attic! Today I will let that Huo feel the pain of losing a disciple!”
Then he lowered his hands, and a mark on his arm suddenly came to life, turning into a long white snake towards Su Li!
Su Li yawned, and patted the white snake—
Boom!
Then lighting in the sky scattered on the shoulders of Zheng Shu, who was full of dismay and fear.
“Well done.”
Su Li narrowed her eyes and smiled lightly, clapping her hands, “You are a little bit weak.”
Boom!
Zheng Shu’s flesh exploded, with the dissipating light dotted in the scarlet, forming a beautiful picture.
Quiet—
After silence, the crowd felt a tinge of sadness.
The top Huashen Divinity was dead, in that way?!
Some were not even able to make a bet, and then Zheng Shu was gone?!
“Rank 13,690, win! Ranking: 639. Any objections?”
The practitioner in yellow clothes standing on one of the immortal layers was startled and scared with an instant response of “no objection!”
Damn it! This mysterious realm space actually didn’t follow normal rules. This witch had strong strength, and her means wereruthless! The yellow-clothes practitioner was only a top Huashen Divinity, so he must be killed by her one attack.
“So the rankings are changed, and the immortal layer is vacant. There will be one person from inferior ring for promotion.”
Su Li returned to the immortal layer, glancing at the ranking on the jade token. Then she re-sat down and picked up the booklet. Now even if Yan Ziye did not speak anything, no one dared to talk about her any more.
With the progress of this battle, the outside world became even more turbulent. All the departments of holy sects that were responsible for information collection almost quarreled.
“Among the top 700! Where is this dark horse from?”
“What? She is Su Jiuzhou? That one directly from the 33rd Immortal Layer to the First Immortal Layer?!”
“Find her background information right now! And the two “nobodies” who gave a surprise to the public. If you can’t find out their information, you all go to the hell!”
“…”
On the Immortal Layer, Ling Qinglan stared at Su Li who was studying the unknown booklet.
Her power was much stronger than that at their first meeting.
It was only nine years that Su Jiuzhou had completed the leap from the Jindan Realm to the nature’s test, reaching even a higher level, how did she do it?
“She did what a demon do? Break the rules, and do what ordinary people can’t?”
At this moment, his mind was somewhat complicated.
Ling Qinglan was thinking of the man all the time who could reappear and lead them to complete their revenge.
But he clearly realized that this idea was so naive that it was impossible to achieve!
“Perhaps, today is the best time for me, and I should not struggle anymore.”
Ling Qinglan smiled bitterly and suddenly became very serious, “Sir, I have finished what you ordered.”
Su Li suddenly stiffened, and then relaxed. She smiled, “Finished? Not out of my expectation. Qinglan, are you finally willing to call me ‘Sir’ like Yan Ziye and the others? Very good! In the future, you will know it is not a bad choice.”
Ling Qingzhu reluctantly smiled, “I am grateful for your kindness, and I won’t regret.”
“Oh…Really?”
Su Li gave Ling Qinglan a meaningful glance and then read the booklet again.
This eye contact was unnoticed by anyone but one person.
“Is that Su Jiuzhou? Exactly as same as the portrait that little junior fellow apprentice gave to me.”
Among the First Immortal Layer, a handsome man in white with white hair and white eyebrows frowned and lost in thought.
Su Jiuzhou saved the life of his junior fellow apprentice then, so he remembered her appearance. He planned to protect her, but never thought that he couldn’t see through this woman’s strength. At least competed with Zheng Shu, he could never do it easily.
“It seems that protection is not necessary, but goodwill can still be conveyed.”
A smile appeared on this handsome man’s face, which immediately drew the surprise of several persons around.
At the same time, the purple-clothes woman leaning on the soft couch made of velvet leather smiled, with her beautiful eyes flashing gloom.
“Shit! Damn it! I took great efforts to introduce you, but you died so easily! Is she Su Jiuzhou that little junior sister apprentice mentioned? She is a troublemaker. It seems necessary to use Great Master’s means. If she poses a threat to Great Master’s plan, it will cause troubles.”
In the following days, many more people died in the ring, but it was meaninglessly for Su Li. So she just read Thatched Cottage Essay.
During this period, there were constant deaths of talents, and people from inferior immortal layers were replenished. On the thirteenth day, Jiang Run with a pale face appeared on one immortal layer, and then he couldn’t help but be excited and fiercely clenched his palm.
Soon after, another acquaintance was promoted, it was Ying Qiao’er of the Wanjian Sect. That girl’s attitude towards her was a bit too enthusiastic since the incident of the spiritual boat, making Su Li quite uncomfortable.
“Lord Qingshui!”
Just as Su Li expected, the first thing that Ying Qiao’er did just after her promotion was to look for Su Li, and then sent her voice after finding her.
Su Li smiled helplessly, and was about to say something, when suddenly the mysterious realm sounded.
