Apocalypse 12 did not say anything else and turned to leave.
Nie Tian looked at Apocalypse 12's departing figure with an ugly expression.
He had a vague feeling that Apocalypse 12 was plotting something and had been guiding him in the dark.
Was Apocalypse 12 also doing this for the Wu Kui reward?
"Boss, I think this person is too sinister. It's not good for you to get too close to him," She Tiankuang suddenly said to Nie Tian with a serious expression.
Nie Tian froze for a moment, then smiled and said, "I know."
If even She Tiankuang could see that Apocalypse 12 was sinister, then there must be something wrong with him.
For the next half a month, besides paying attention to the Scarlet Life Loyal Heart and Qing Qi's progress, Nie Tian cultivated.
The opponents he would face in the Hidden Dragon Battle were too strong. With his current strength, it would be too difficult for him to reach the end.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
During this time, Nie Tian's strength had broken through from the second tier of Heavenly Righteousness to the third tier.
This kind of improvement was of no real help to him. It was better than nothing.
As for the Cosmic Singularity, he did not dare to recklessly merge with it. He could not afford to take that risk.
During this half a month, the Scarlet Life Loyal Heart and Qing Qi had finished dealing with Yu Jingchen's matters. Yu Jingchen was in the great array, waiting for the moment when the seal on the sword embryo would be completely lifted.
At this time, Nie Tian, the Scarlet Life Loyal Heart, and Qing Qi stood on the square outside the Myriad Yuan Pavilion, ready to go to the Vast Cloud Square.
"Nie Tian, your strength has broken through again. That's great." The Scarlet Life Loyal Heart looked at Nie Tian, feeling his aura, and said with a hearty smile, "I didn't expect you to grow so fast."
Indeed, Nie Tian's speed of growth would be extremely terrifying for any other cultivator.
Even though he was the Star Sky Holy Lord, the Scarlet Life Loyal Heart was shocked.
"My current strength is still too weak compared to the other warriors in the top 64." Nie Tian sighed softly and said, "I don't know if I can make it to the last step in the Hidden Dragon Battle."
Scarlet Life Loyal Essence and Qing Qi heard Nie Tian's words and became silent at the same time.
Although they knew that Nie Tian's talent was terrifying and hoped that Nie Tian would win, they didn't have much confidence at the moment.
Nie Tian was currently a Third Tier Heavenly Justice Great Lord. He should be the weakest among the top 64.
His opponents included Zhu Xiyi, Xiu Wanjie and other pinnacle geniuses. Therefore, both Chi Ming and Qing Qi felt that the chances of Nie Tian reaching the final step were slim to none.
"Seniors, I have something to ask you," Yang Kai said. At this moment, Nie Tian suddenly remembered something. His eyes trembled slightly, and he told him about Jun Jian Xing.
So it turned out that after Jun Jianxing was killed by King Shang, although he left behind an Earthly Extermination Astral Soul, it had yet to be reborn.
Now that a long time had passed, Nie Tian couldn't help but start to worry.
"The Forbidden Astral Soul is still there, but the Astral Lord has yet to be reborn. This is indeed not normal." Qing Qi frowned after hearing Nie Tian's words. He was also puzzled.
"There is only one explanation for this situation." Scarlet Life Loyal Essence's face darkened. He glanced at Nie Tian and said, "When the Earthly Extermination Astral Lord was killed, because the power was too strong, it caused him to be separated from the Earthly Extermination Astral Soul."
Qing Qi frowned and nodded.
In fact, he had also thought of this. He just didn't want Nie Tian to worry, so he didn't say it.
"This …" Nie Tian's expression changed, and he was suddenly speechless.
He didn't expect the situation to be so serious.
Could it be that Jun Jian Xing was really dead?
"Nie Tian, you don't have to worry too much. Maybe it's something else." Qing Qi looked at Nie Tian and said with a forced smile.
"Yeah." Nie Tian nodded and didn't say anything else.
It was useless for him to worry now. Whether Jun Jian Xing could be reborn was no longer something he could decide.
What happened next would depend on Jun Jian Xing's luck.
Afterwards, Nie Tian and the others did not stay any longer. They arrived at Haoyun Square very soon.
At this moment, Vastcloud Square was already filled with a sea of people. When one looked down from high up in the sky, it was filled with a dense mass of people. A rough estimate would place there at least a million people.
"So many people," Nie Tian smiled bitterly. He did not think the Hidden Dragon Battle would be so grand.
"Of course." Qing Qi chuckled and said, "Every time the five academies recruit students, it's a major event that shakes up the All-Heaven Sacred World. All the sects, clans, and organisations with some strength in the entire All-Heaven Sacred World will send people to participate. "
"The Hidden Dragon Battle is the battle before the top 64. It represents the apex of the younger generation of cultivators in the All-Heaven Sacred World."
"There are so many sects and clans. Who wouldn't want to witness such a grand spectacle?"
"That's true," Nie Tian said with a smile, but he was silent inwardly.
It was extremely likely for important figures who would influence the entire All-Heaven Sacred World to appear in the top 64 of the Hidden Dragon Battle. It was indeed a good opportunity to witness their battle.
"The five academies' recruitment this time is different from the past." Then, the Scarlet Life Loyal Heart said, "Aside from the spectators, the upper echelon of the five academies have probably all arrived."
"Yeah." Qing Qi nodded with a smile, "Since Zhuge Keyun has come, the other four principals are probably here as well."
"Yes." The corner of the Scarlet Life Loyal Heart's lips twitched, "The Haoyun Square seems to be bustling right now, but it's actually the most heavily guarded place in the All-Heaven Sacred World. The experts of the five academies, and even the organisations behind them, have all sent experts over to guard the square together. "
Qing Qi's eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze sweeping across the entire Vast Cloud Plaza, and he said with a smile, "The entire Vast Cloud Plaza is enveloped by a grand array and barrier. I'm afraid that the current defense is not much different from my Myriad Yuan Pavilion. The five academies have really put in a lot of effort for that thing. "
The Scarlet Life Loyal Heart nodded again and said: "Only that thing is worth such a big battle."
"The Hidden Dragon Battle this time really is a gathering of the best in the All-Heaven Sacred World," Qing Qi chuckled with a sliver of excitement.
Nie Tian's eyes could not help but light up when he heard the two of them.
Of course, he knew what the two of them were talking about. It was the reward the five academies had given to Wu Kui. At the same time, it was the item related to the Ninth Level Chaotic Beast that Apocalypse 12 had told him about.
"Senior Scarlet Life!" At this moment, Nie Tian's eyes suddenly trembled, and he called out to the Scarlet Life Loyal Heart.
"What's wrong?" The Scarlet Life Loyal Heart could not help but be taken aback.
"Senior Scarlet Life, if I obtain what you're talking about, can you protect it?" Nie Tian's eyes darkened. He nodded sternly and asked.
