Tower of Cloud Pavilion
While Su Changxing was being humiliated, Chu Xingyun and Xue Qingwu had already stepped into Tower of Cloud Pavilion.
"Before you even opened your mouth, I already guessed that Su Changxing would end up like this." Xue Qingwu suddenly turned her head and said to Chu Xingyun.
"He's not smart enough and still wants to show off. The result is most likely like this." Chu Xingyun curled his lips.
Xue Qingwu shook her head and smiled, "Although Su Changxing likes to be in the limelight, he is not a stupid person. If it were someone else, they would have lost all their face and become the laughing stock of countless people."
"Grandpa once said that although you look young, you're actually very meticulous and can plan everything in your heart. It's hard to find anyone in the entire Imperial City who can compete with you. That Su Changxing is unlucky to have kicked an iron plate."
Hearing Xue Qingwu's praise, Chu Xingyun didn't show any signs of complacency. He just laughed lightly. He always felt that he had only done something insignificant, nothing more.
The two walked side by side and soon arrived outside a cabinet.
At this moment, an old man in a green robe was sitting at the door of the cabinet. He had a kind smile on his face and seemed to be very close.
"The Sky Spirit Realm!"
Chu Xingyun's brows trembled slightly. He could feel that this old man in green robe contained an extremely strong Yang energy, like a large sun.
This energy was the Yang energy. Only those who had stepped into the Sky Spirit Realm could absorb it into their body.
"The Soaring Sky Martial House is indeed the number one Martial House. They actually sent a Sky Spirit Realm expert to guard Tower of Cloud Pavilion. However, judging from the Yang energy this old man emits, he should only be at the first level of the Sky Spirit Realm." Chu Xingyun withdrew his gaze and quickly calmed down.
Xue Qingwu walked in front of the old man in green robe and cupped her hands, "Disciple Xue Qingwu greets Elder Qing."
The old man in green robe slowly raised his head and smiled kindly, "You're about to step into the Earth Spirit Realm at such a young age. Not bad indeed. As for this little fellow …"
The old man shifted his gaze, his turbid eyes flashing with a sharp light. He carefully sized up Chu Xingyun, as if he wanted to completely see through him.
"His name is Chu Xingyun and he became a core disciple not long ago." Xue Qingwu knew the terrifying identity of this Elder Qing and hurriedly helped Chu Xingyun to answer.
"Since you have become a Core Disciple, then according to the Sect's rules, you have the qualifications to enter High Heaven Pavilion." Elder Qing said, his eyes never leaving Chu Xingyun. With a wave of his hand, the stone door behind him began to tremble until it opened completely.
"Let's go in. Take note of the time. We only have six hours." Elder Qing reminded.
"Many thanks, Elder Qing!" Xue Qingwu cupped her hands again and didn't continue to stay. She immediately followed Chu Xingyun into the stone gate.
Elder Qing looked at Chu Xingyun's back as he left. His eyes flickered as he laughed in a low voice, "A mere third layer of Spirit Gathering can actually become a core disciple. Aside from that, he can also secretly spy on my cultivation. This little guy is a little interesting …"
… …
Just as he stepped into Sky Tower, Chu Xingyun felt a flash of light in front of him.
What appeared in front of him was an extremely spacious room. The room was divided into many areas. Some were filled with books, while some were filled with rows of weapons. There were so many different types that it made one feel dazzled. Even the walls of the room were filled with countless holes. Many scrolls were placed in the holes, and each of them gave off an ancient aura.
"The items in Sky Tower all have great origins. However, some of the treasures have been damaged and their power is no longer there. You must be careful when choosing. First, familiarize yourself with the environment here. I'll go over there to take a look." Xue Qingwu also reminded him. Her gaze locked onto the bookcase in front of her and she quickly walked over.
After Xue Qingwu left, Chu Xingyun began to wander around. His eyes carefully scanned the surroundings.
"Only when the Spirit Condensing Black Stone is completely activated will there be disputes. It seems that the Sky Tower Martial House doesn't know of its existence. They most likely thought that it was an ancient jade and casually left it in Sky Tower."
"This place is so spacious. It won't be easy to find the Spirit Condensing Black Stone."
Chu Xingyun thought to himself as he searched for the Spirit Condensing Black Stone.
In the past, when the Spirit Condensing Black Stone was discovered, Chu Xingyun wasn't present. This information was all hearsay. He didn't know what the Spirit Condensing Black Stone looked like or where it was hidden.
Fortunately, Chu Xingyun was very familiar with the properties of the Spirit Condensing Black Stone. Immediately, he condensed his spiritual energy into strands and with him as the center, spread them out to the surroundings.
The Spirit Condensing Black Stone was like a human's primary sea. It was extremely sensitive to spiritual energy. Once it came into contact with pure spiritual energy, it would slowly absorb it.
Although the Spirit Condensing Black Stone hadn't been activated yet, a slight absorption cycle was still possible.
With Chu Xingyun's high control of spiritual energy, as long as he found a trace of abnormality, he would be able to find the Spirit Condensing Black Stone and keep it in his bag!
Slowing down his pace, Chu Xingyun focused all his attention on the Spirit Condensing Black Stone. He pushed his perception to the limit and carefully searched for the Spirit Condensing Black Stone.
However, as time passed, he didn't find anything. He didn't detect any abnormalities at all.
"I've already searched half of the High Heaven Pavilion and didn't miss a single piece of jade. Logically speaking, this shouldn't have happened. Could it be that the Spirit Condensing Black Stone had already been taken by someone before I arrived?"
This thought suddenly appeared in Chu Xingyun's mind.
The Spirit Condensing Black Stone was indeed obtained by a core disciple in the High Heaven Martial House and accidentally activated it.
However, Chu Xingyun didn't know where the Spirit Condensing Black Stone was activated.
If that core disciple had already obtained the Spirit Condensing Black Stone and accidentally activated it after a while, then that would be troublesome. It was almost impossible for Chu Xingyun to obtain the Spirit Condensing Black Stone.
"When the Spirit Condensing Black Stone isn't activated, it's no different from ordinary jade. No one would waste such a precious opportunity on an unknown piece of jade. The chances of someone taking the Spirit Condensing Black Stone and accidentally activating it are negligible."
"If that's the case, then the Spirit Condensing Black Stone is most likely still in the High Heaven Pavilion. Did I overlook something?"
Chu Xingyun became a bit impatient. The Spirit Condensing Black Stone was extremely important to him and he had to obtain it no matter what.
"Qingwu, let me help you."
Just as Chu Xing Yun was feeling vexed, a disgusting voice drifted into his ears, causing him to feel even more vexed. He glanced around and saw the ugly face of Su Changxing. Su Changxing had a fawning smile on his face as he walked towards Xue Qingwu.
According to the rules of the sect, once a disciple stepped into the earth spirit realm, they would receive a chance to enter the High Heaven Pavilion.
Although Su Changxing had long since become a core disciple, he'd only stepped into the earth spirit realm not too long ago. Therefore, this was his second time entering the High Heaven Pavilion.
"He's already lost all face just now, and now he dares to flatter and fawn over me. This Su Changxing's face is as thick as a city wall." Chu Xingyun shook his head. Just as he was about to leave, a strange yet familiar fluctuation was transmitted to him along the fine thread of spirit power without any warning.
"Spirit Condensing Black Stone!" Chu Xingyun was delighted. This ripple was the Spirit Condensing Black Stone he'd been searching for for a long time.
He immediately searched along the ripple, and his gaze finally stopped on Su Changxing's body. More accurately, it stopped on Su Changxing's hand.
At this moment, Su Changxing's right hand was tightly gripping an ordinary-looking grey jade stone. Chu Xingyun's spirit power was immediately absorbed when it came into contact with the jade stone. After a short while, the spirit power was spat out again, forming a cycle of absorption and spitting.
This scene made Chu Xingyun speechless. Now, he finally knew which core disciple had been so lucky in his past life to have unintentionally activated the Spirit Condensing Black Stone.
"The High Heaven Pavilion has rules that during the selection period, no one is allowed to rob or fight. It looks like I have to think of a way to make Su Changxing voluntarily hand over the Spirit Condensing Black Stone."
