"Hey, how much is the puppet chicken? Give me a price! I can still afford a hundred thousand or two hundred thousand. "Wrinkling her pretty nose, the young woman called out to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen left without turning his head back, saying indifferently, "Sorry, I only want this puppet chicken."
"You're too difficult to talk to. How about this, I'll give you thirty thousand mid grade spirit stones, and you give me the puppet chicken." It was easy to see that she was very fond of the puppet chicken. Thirty thousand mid grade spirit stones could buy a mid grade artifact. Ordinary Astral Reaching experts would definitely be unable to resist this temptation.
Of course, she was not a spendthrift either. It was just that the puppet mechanism spell had almost been lost in the true spirit continent, so it was hard to find any puppet products in the market. A lot of things were obviously useless, but the rarer they were, the more valuable they were, and the same applied to puppet products.
"Not for sale."
Ye Chen threw out two words.
"Infuriating!"
The young woman hatefully glared at Ye Chen's back. If not for Blue Bird City forbidding brawls, and if not for Ye Chen's cultivation base not being weak, she would have long since taught him a lesson. How could she tolerate his arrogance? "Humph! Senior Sister Feng said that Blue Mountain Island has many strange things. It's indeed so. Unfortunately, her interest was ruined by him!"
"Miss, do you want to look at other antiques? I'll give you a discount." The old man had heard the conversation between the two. Knowing that the young woman was rich and overbearing, he said with a smile.
"Even if you give it to me, I wouldn't want it."
A fragrant wind drifted in the air. The young woman's figure was like a wisp of cold air, shuttling through the crowd. Her frightening agility technique made some Astral Reaching experts on Antique Street turn pale with fright.
…
Outside the city, grass grew on both sides of the road.
Ye Chen took out the puppet chicken, found the switch for spirit stones, and inserted a low grade spirit stone.
Hehehe!
The puppet chicken's gem-like eyes swiveled around, and the hard feathers on its body began to tremble before arranging themselves in an orderly fashion. At the same time, the feathers on the puppet chicken's neck began to spread open, and it threw its head back to let loose a cry. Perhaps this was due to the refraction of sunlight, or perhaps it was due to the vital energy contained within its body, but the feathers on the puppet chicken's body seemed to have become softer than before, and they began to emit a dazzling light.
"Unbelievable! It looks exactly like a real rooster. At first glance, I would have thought it was a live chicken. Although the True Spirit Continent was a bit primitive in some aspects, it was also much more advanced than the world that I came from. No, with his twenty years of experience in that world, the puppet chicken's technology had already surpassed his imagination. But, it makes sense. Dao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets everything in the world. Science is only one of the many paths in the world, and when you reach the extreme, you will reach the same destination. It does not have any superiority over the other paths."
While pacing, the puppet chicken sensed a bug in the grass beside it. It walked over and pecked it to death.
After a cup of tea's worth of time, the puppet chicken suddenly stopped moving.
"Low rank spirit stones indeed can't support it for too long. This is still because the puppet chicken has a supply of spirit stones, and the exquisite parts inside its body can automatically absorb the natural Yuan Qi. Otherwise, it would have used up all of its energy in half a cup of tea's worth of time."
Taking out the wasted low rank spirit stone, Ye Chen inserted a mid rank spirit stone into it.
Hehehehe!
The puppet chicken started to move again, and the colors on its body became brighter and brighter. Its bean-sized gem-like eyes flickered from time to time, looking extremely spirited.
"If I bring it to that world, even the word 'priceless' wouldn't be enough to describe it. It would be a miraculous treasure, a miracle."
Putting away the puppet chicken, Ye Chen sighed inwardly and flew toward a big city in the center of the Blue Mountain Island.
"Brothers, another fat sheep has come. Let's kill him and take his storage ring!"
In this world, there would always be some people who didn't like to work and liked to rob others to replenish themselves. The big cities of the Blue Mountain Island didn't allow wantonly fighting. Outside the cities, there were many bandits hiding in the depths of the mountains, waiting for the fat sheep to come knocking.
Ye Chen's cultivation base was at late Astral Reaching realm. Perhaps in some small countries of the South Rudra Region, he would be considered a powerful expert, and no one would dare to touch him. However, this was the Blue Mountain Island, where there were countless martial artists from different regions. Late Astral Reaching realm experts could be seen everywhere, so it was not a big deal at all. Dozens of people rushed out from the hidden area, and all of them had a cultivation base of late Astral Reaching realm. One third of them had a cultivation base of peak late Astral Reaching realm.
Unfortunately, they had chosen the wrong target.
Without reducing his speed, Ye Chen pulled out the Destruction sword.
The sword light flickered and soared into the sky. Ye Chen flashed through the crowd's encirclement. He was so fast that the eyes couldn't even blink, and the sword light couldn't even disappear.
Swoosh!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Blood splashed everywhere as dozens of people were killed in one sword strike. Holding their necks, they fell down, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"Thirteen people killed in one sword strike! Such a fast sword strike! When did another top sword artist come to the Blue Mountain Island? Too frightening!"
There were a lot of Astral Reaching realm experts passing by, but they were basically all in groups, so as to not become fat sheep and die on the spot.
"Interesting! Perhaps he is going to participate in the Astral Reaching Challenge Tournament!"
"If he were to participate in the Astral Reaching Challenge Tournament, he would definitely have the confidence to win ten in a row, and twenty in a row is also possible. Thirty in a row and above would not be that easy."
"Yeah, after twenty in a row, his moves and habits would be completely understood. Another expert of the same level would be enough to beat him. Moreover, the Blue Mountain Island would not sit and watch one person win in a row. They would definitely send experts to stop him."
"There are only twenty-four people in the Blue Mountain Island with fifty in a row in the past ten years, and only one with a hundred in a row. How many powerful experts have not been able to go through fifty battles? After all, in the Challenge Tournament, one can't wear a defensive artifact, and the weapons in their hands have to be Blue Mountain Island's standard weapons. If one wants to win, one can only rely on one's cultivation base and martial arts."
"However, the Blue Mountain City has recently produced a super character with fifty in a row. I heard that it is the head disciple of the Cloud Billow Region's Mysterious Moon Pavilion, Chu Zhongyue. His martial arts are very special, and ordinary people would not be able to see through it. His habits are also ever-changing. The people who have lost to him thought that they had seen through his moves, but when it comes to the real battle, not a single one of them is not confused."
"Blue Mountain City's Feng Yanrou has also won forty in a row. Fifty in a row is not far away."
"Feng Yanrou … Could it be the second disciple of the Misty Snow Region's Snowy Palace, the Snowy Sword Artist Feng Yanrou?"
"Indeed!"
"It's getting more and more interesting. Feng Yanrou can absolutely be ranked in the top five of the young generation of the Misty Snow Region, maybe even top three. And after fifty in a row, every nine battles, the tenth battle will be against another fifty in a row warrior. The winner can continue, and the loser will have to stop."
"My heart is itching. Let's go take a look!"
Hearing these people's conversation, the corner of Ye Chen's mouth hooked into a smile. The Astral Reaching Tournament in the Blue Mountain Island was indeed challenging. There were no defensive artifacts, and all the attacking weapons were standard weapons of the Blue Mountain Island. In this way, a portion of the Extreme Astral Reaching experts would also drop a level. After all, the basic requirement to become an Extreme Astral Reaching expert was having a mid-grade defensive artifact and mid-grade offensive artifact. Without these two, one's battle power would naturally drop. Of course, the powerful Extreme Astral Reaching experts would still be powerful without their mid-grade artifacts, and would be comparable to ordinary Extreme Astral Reaching experts.
As for winning in a row, of course, it would not be that easy.
Not to mention the fact that the more times one participated in the tournament, the more one's moves and habits would be known by others. Moreover, after a long battle, one would inevitably lose the vigor they had at the beginning, and would become more and more tired. At this point, an expert of the same level would be able to end one's winning streak.
Even if one passed this stage, the following experts would be even more powerful. Nobody was an idiot. Knowing full well that they were not your opponent, why would they go up? Only those who were confident would go up. After defeating one, the next one would be even more powerful. The Blue Mountain Island would also send out powerful experts to stop them. If it was really not possible, then after fifty battles, the other two cities' fifty win streak experts would also fight with you, exposing more of your hidden strength and preparing for the next one.
"In the past ten years, only one person has maintained a hundred win streak record. I reckon that person has an overwhelming strength. Otherwise, it would be very dangerous."
The Blue Mountain Island had three big cities with a population of more than ten million. They were the Blue Mountain City, the Blue Crest City, and the Blue Water City. The one Ye Chen came to was the Blue Water City.
The Blue Water City was huge, and the city gate was a hundred meters tall. There were at least ten million permanent residents inside. Adding the floating population, it would be fifteen million for sure.
On the main road, which was wide enough for thirty-two horses to walk side by side, warriors were coming and going like a black flood. Judging from the degree of prosperity, it was even more prosperous than the Martial City of the Black Dragon Empire in the South Rudra Region. It was not hard to imagine how popular the Blue Mountain Island was.
Without asking for directions, Ye Chen followed the crowd and arrived at the east side of the city. There were no random buildings there, only a huge battling field. It was hundreds of miles in radius, surrounded by a high wall. The guards outside the wall were fully armed, looking very serious.
There were a lot of entrances to the battling field. Ye Chen arrived at one of them.
On the side of the entrance, there was an announcement board, on which was written, "Entrance fee is fifty mid rank spirit stones or five thousand low rank spirit stones. Please enter after applying for a VIP tag. Troublemakers will be killed without mercy."
"Low rank spirit stones are indeed not worth much. The exchange rate with mid rank spirit stones is one hundred to one. Clasping Yuan Realm warriors would run out of money after seeing it a few times."
Although Ye Chen had a lot of low rank spirit stones, there was no need to be so stingy with mid rank spirit stones. He was an Astral Reaching Realm warrior, and using low rank spirit stones to pay the entrance fee was too stingy.
After paying the fifty mid rank spirit stones, Ye Chen followed the entrance and entered the battling field.
As far as the eye could see, the spectator seats were filled with people. The noise was so loud that it reached the sky and was deafening.
Ye Chen arrived neither too late nor too early. The seats in the front were all filled, but there were still some seats in the middle.
Finding a seat and sitting down, he looked around. Most of the people here were Astral Reaching Realm warriors. There were only a few Clasping Yuan Realm warriors. And in the middle, below the spectator seats, two Astral Reaching Realm warriors were fighting fiercely. Magnificent Zhen Yuan ripples were leaking out from time to time.
"Liu Zhendong has won. Which hero will go up next? If you can win against Liu Zhendong, not only will you get one thousand mid rank spirit stones, you will also end his winning streak. This is a good opportunity to become famous. If you can win ten times in a row, our Blue Mountain Nation will award you a ten times in a row token. You will get a five percent discount anywhere in the Blue Mountain Island. If you win twenty times in a row, you will get ten percent, fifteen percent, twenty percent, and fifty percent. Besides the necessary mid rank spirit stones, you will also get five hundred upper rank spirit stones as a reward." On the battling field, a black-robed old man said with a loud voice.
