This beautiful figure was Chen Xue.
Looking down from the sky, there were many sand dunes and valleys. There were also some dilapidated ancient ruins and ancient cities that emitted a dazzling golden light under the sun.
Sou! Sou!
Sou! Chen Xue sensed that there were at least a hundred cultivators with powerful auras within a thousand miles.
… …
"This is the outer area of the Mirage Desert. If we continue to approach the core, we will reach the protective barrier formed by the sandstorm. If you can enter, then follow me. If you can't, then leave quickly. Don't stay here for too long in case you are killed by other cultivators … … "
"Senior Wang, is it really that serious? Our Spirit Serpent Valley is a Rank 9 Sect … … "
"Don't think that a Rank 9 Sect can do anything. Not to mention our Spirit Serpent Valley, even the disciples of the Yuan Gate would be killed here. The Mirage Desert gathers cultivators from the Eastern and Western Continents and the Southern Sea Islands. Those who dare to come here are all geniuses among geniuses. There are countless disciples from powerful sects and super geniuses from the Demon Dao and the Demon Dao. Even I have to be careful … … "
"Oh … … Senior Wang, is it really that difficult to enter?"
"Very difficult. The Mirage Desert is also known as the City in the Sky. It only opens once every hundred years. According to the records of the sect, only Golden Core Realm and Nascent Soul Realm cultivators under the age of thirty can enter. Those with a low cultivation base, high cultivation base, or over the age limit will not be able to enter. "
"Then we are all within the criteria … …"
"The basic criteria are met, but you have to pass the City in the Mirage Desert test. Only those who are ranked above a thousand will be able to enter. Relatively speaking, Golden Core Realm cultivators like you have less chances than Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. But the Mirage Desert test does not depend on one's cultivation level. The most important thing is potential! You will know when you participate in the test. Let's go, there are still ten days. I think many people have already arrived … … "
… …
"Ruochen, you will see the super geniuses of the Western Continent and the Southern Sea Islands in this trial. Don't limit your vision to Chu Qingtian of the Yuan Gate and Gu Xing of the Sky Sword Sect. The competition between the sects will end one year later. Now, you are representing the top geniuses of the Eastern Continent. You are on the same side! Competition is fine, but we can't kill each other! Originally, if Xia Youyou had not advanced to the Incarnation Realm, the four of you should have been able to obtain a decent harvest. Unfortunately, she had lost the right. It's up to the three of you now! This time, the Yuan Gate's Chu Qingtian is in charge. You don't have to be so calculative. It isn't that he's stronger than you, and it's just that the Origin Gate is stronger! During the Mirage Realm test, try your best to aim for the highest ranking. Don't hide your strength! This is related to the fate of the Eastern Continent and your own! It would be even better if he could defeat Chu Qingtian and Gu Xing in terms of ranking! Furthermore, the higher your ranking, the more opportunities you will encounter in the area you enter … "
"Don't worry, I will do my best! Whether it's Chu Qingtian or Gu Xing, they can forget about beating me! "
Dozens of disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect were flying in the Mirage Land Desert, and a late-stage Nascent Soul Realm youth said to Wu Ruochen. Although his combat strength was no longer comparable to Wu Ruochen's, his age and experience made him the leader of the Sky Sword Sect to participate in the Mirage Desert.
…
Three days later, when Chen Hao appeared in the Mirage Desert, he saw thousands of Golden Core Stage and Nascent Soul Stage disciples gathered together outside a sandstorm barrier that blotted out the sky.
These disciples were all super geniuses of the Eastern Continent. Although his father didn't tell Chen Hao about the Mirage Desert, there were very detailed records of it in the sect's information. The Mirage Desert was a city in the sky that opened once every hundred years. It was definitely a competition between the super geniuses of the Eastern and Western Continents and the Southern Sea Islands. What could one obtain in the city? Life or death? It depended on each person's fate, but the competition would start before entering the city in the sky. That was the Ranking Pagoda! It was a competition between one's own fate and the fate of the continent they belonged to.
However, including the sixth-grade sects, very few people from the low-grade sects participated. It wasn't that they couldn't or didn't want to, but it was useless even if they went. They wouldn't be able to enter the top 1,000. These low-grade sects would only remind their disciples to go if they were truly super geniuses.
"There are so many people!"
Chen Hao stared at the thousands of young disciples and was slightly shocked. Whether it was the Golden Core Realm or the Nascent Soul Realm, their auras were extremely powerful. They were definitely super geniuses in the same realm. Only a small part of them were rogue cultivators. Most of them were disciples of the sects sitting together. Most of them were super geniuses of the seventh-grade sects and above.
Chen Hao didn't completely conceal his aura and landed at the back of the crowd.
"A disciple of the Star Picking Sect? That's funny. A third-grade sect with a late-stage Golden Core Realm disciple dares to come to the Mirage Desert … "
Before Chen Hao appeared, he had changed into the Star Picking Robe that symbolized his identity as a disciple of the Star Picking Sect. The reason for this was very simple. He was a member of the Star Picking Sect and also a member of the Eastern Continent. If he wanted to win providence for himself, he could only be himself openly.
"Don't underestimate him. He should be Chen Hao who has been the talk of the town recently! "
"Chen Hao? The Chen Hao who killed Fan Fang and saved Duan Yufei and Xia Lanlan from the Redflame Beast? "
"He must be! Otherwise, who would dare to come to the Star Picking Sect? "
As the people around discussed, everyone's attention was focused on them. The Nascent Soul Realm experts who didn't take Chen Hao seriously looked over and used their minds to check him out.
Fan Fang, who was half a step away from the Nascent Soul Realm, was quite famous in the cultivation world. Whether it was talent or combat strength, he was comparable to the super geniuses of the eighth-grade sects. He was not much inferior to the super geniuses of the ninth-grade sects. Chen Hao was able to kill him when he was only at the late-stage Golden Core Realm. The commotion he caused was huge, especially when the Ling Tian Sect came out to protect him.
…
"He's here too?"
Chen Xue saw Chen Hao immediately. She was sitting cross-legged at the back of the crowd alone. Her aura was cold, her graceful figure, and her beautiful face hidden under the black veil was exceptionally eye-catching. However, some people who came forward to invite her to join their team were coldly rejected by Chen Xue. Even the experts at the peak of the late-stage Nascent Soul Realm were no exception. If it was any other time or place, someone would have flipped out. However, no one dared to cause trouble at this time. At least before entering the Sky City, no one dared to cause trouble.
This was because every force represented the Eastern Continent's honor. Those who could come here naturally knew the rules.
…
"Brother Chen, how have you been?"
Whoosh!
Not long after Chen Hao sat down, two streaks of light flashed and flew in front of him. Duan Yufei cupped his fists and said with a smile on his face. Xia Lanlan glared at Chen Hao. Her gaze was not friendly, but there was no hostility.
Chen Hao smiled and stood up to return the greeting. "I'm fine. Thank you for the help of Brother Duan's sect … "
Hearing Chen Hao's words, Duan Yufei smiled and shook his head. "This has nothing to do with me. Brother Chen understands. Unfortunately, she won't be coming this time … "
Duan Yufei seemed to be implying something.
"So what if she comes? Some people are as timid as mice and don't even dare to recognize her! Hmph! "Xia Lanlan glared at Chen Hao. Obviously, she already knew about Chen Hao and Xia Youyou's meeting. She was very dissatisfied that Chen Hao didn't even have the courage to recognize her face to face. She was outspoken and her considerations were very simple. She didn't think about the interests of the sect and other big issues. In her opinion, since Youyou was so good to Chen Hao, Chen Hao should disregard everything and throw away everything.
This was out of Chen Hao's expectations. He didn't expect Xia Youyou and Xia Lanlan to have such a good relationship.
Hearing Xia Lanlan's words, Duan Yufei pulled Xia Lanlan and stared at Chen Hao. "Brother Chen, don't mind her. Lanlan is her best sister, and no one knows her better than her … Let's not talk about this. Brother Chen, this is our Ling Tian Sect's communication talisman. After you enter, if you encounter a dangerous place that you're not confident in, you can inform me and we'll explore together. It's very difficult to obtain the greatest benefits by yourself. "
"Alright," Chen Hao slightly hesitated, but he still took the communication talisman from Duan Yufei's hand and replied.
…
After Duan Yufei and Xia Lanlan left, Chen Xue suddenly stood up under the attention of many obscure gazes. Her figure flashed and arrived before Chen Hao. She glanced at Chen Hao through the black veil and sat beside Chen Hao. The distance between them was only a foot, and they were practically shoulder to shoulder.
This kind of rejoicing instantly made Chen Hao, who was already one of the focal points, attract even more attention and cause a flurry of discussion.
"You broke through to the Nascent Soul Stage so quickly?" Chen Hao turned his head and asked with a slightly surprised voice transmission.
"I've already reached the peak of the advanced-stage of the Golden Core Stage. What's there to be surprised about? Have you gone back? "Chen Xue asked with a seemingly indifferent voice transmission.
"Yes. The matter is far more complicated than you and I imagined. I hope that you don't blame Father, at least before you know the truth. Father didn't even know of your existence. Even … "
"Even what?"
"Father originally thought that he and your mother had never … done the deed of husband and wife."
"How is that possible?" Chen Xue was slightly surprised.
"I also thought that it was impossible. But when Father heard me mention you, he said it himself in shock … We don't know the specific situation. Father didn't tell me and didn't let me get involved. I can understand your feelings, but please trust my intuition. There's definitely an extremely great secret between Father, your mother, and my mother … I believe that Father can handle it well. What we have to do is just wait … "Chen Hao said.
"Wait … Mother has waited for over a hundred years. How long do we have to wait? Wait until her lifespan is exhausted? "
"Your mother has at least 200 years of lifespan, right? What about my mother? Only a hundred years! Do you know what happened between them? How much do you know? Your mother has bitterly searched for over a hundred years. My mother, at least from as long as I can remember, has never eaten a full meal … Father is a cripple. What's laughable is that because of me, he was beaten into a cripple by a bully in a small town who can't even be considered a cultivator … I simply can't understand all of this. I also can't understand. You also can't understand … "
Hiss!
Just as Chen Hao and Chen Xue were arguing with each other through voice transmission, a powerful aura suddenly came from the horizon and interrupted the two's conversation.
(Today is the last chapter. Blushing with shame, there's really no other way … When I return to Kunming, I'll start to repay the debt. No matter how much I owe, I'll repay it. I'll cover my face and escape …) (To be continued. If you like this work, I welcome you to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
