Seeing Jun Wu Xie so confident, Lord Alcohol and Uncle Bird couldn't help but remind him, "We know that you are no longer the same as before. Your strength has increased by leaps and bounds, but you must not underestimate your enemy. After all, they have the numbers advantage, while our Sōgō Gakuin School only has three disciples."
Jun Wu Xie thought for a moment and said, "I'm not afraid of their numbers, but I'm afraid that Xu Daoling and Kong Xu will become their primary targets. If the training ground really opens, can you let me go alone? "
"You can. After all, among the three of you, the Daiga Ken Sect is most afraid of you growing up. If we insist on not letting Xu Daoling and Kong Xu participate, I believe they won't force it. "
When Lord Alcohol said this, he pondered for a moment before changing the topic. "However, the training ground is very special. Although participating in the training ground is dangerous, it's also an opportunity."
"Wu Xie, we hope that you can take care of your two junior brothers. Although they have outstanding talent, they will be no different from flowers in a greenhouse if they cultivate on Mount Zong Wang all the time. Furthermore, they will miss out on many opportunities. The gap between them and you will probably widen, "Uncle Bird said earnestly.
Lord Alcohol said, "If the three of you can come out of the training ground alive, you will definitely be able to break through to the Grotto-Heaven realm. This will only take a few days, at most ten days! "
"The Land of Trials can allow a martial artist to cultivate so quickly?"
Jun Wu Xie was alarmed.
He was now at the Extreme Qi Condensation realm, while Xu Daoling and Kong Xu were at the Tenth Transformation of the Qi Condensation realm.
He was a little special. Xu Daoling and Kong Xu were still a half-step Grotto-Heaven realm away from the Grotto-Heaven realm.
As for the Grotto-Heaven realm, it was a new realm. One needed to construct a Grotto-Heaven in their body. This required warriors to condense their Essence Qi to an extremely pure level. Otherwise, it was very easy for them to fail.
Typically, breaking through a major realm would take a very long time. It was basically several times longer than breaking through a minor realm.
Lord Alcohol was actually so confident!
He could break through to the Grotto-Heaven realm in ten days at most?
"Of course!" Lord Alcohol's eyes flickered as he said, "You wouldn't be so surprised if you knew what a trial ground is."
The trial ground was a special underground space discovered thousands of years ago. There were countless passageways inside, just like a maze.
In that underground space, there was a dense Earth Spirit Qi. At the same time, there was a mysterious crack in that space that led to an unknown place.
Those fissures overflowed with a vicious aura all year round.
These evil auras gave birth to some "spirits" that absorbed and devoured the aura of the earth, transforming into various forms of tormented spirits.
Tormented souls were formed by the condensation of Evil Qi and Spiritual Qi. They were extremely powerful. However, if one could kill them, one would be able to destroy the Evil Qi of the tormented souls and extract the Spiritual Qi from them.
When the tormented soul's ruthlessness was defeated, it would launch its final counterattack, infusing spiritual energy into the body of the living being that killed it.
In this way, the person who killed the tormented spirit would be able to obtain the Earth Spirit Qi that had been purified by the tormented spirit. There was no need for him to refine it again. He could directly refine it into his Dantian or Heavenly Abode and turn it into his own Genuine Qi.
This process was hundreds of times faster than a martial artist refining their own resources!
"So that's how it is …"
Jun Wu Xie was a little surprised. There were too many strange things in the cultivation world that he had never understood before.
From the looks of it, the trial ground was really a good place.
"The trial ground can be said to be a holy land for low-level martial artists to cultivate, but at the same time, it is also extremely dangerous," Lord Alcohol explained. "Tormented souls are extremely powerful and like to live in groups. It is very difficult for genius-level martial artists to gain the upper hand in a one-on-one fight. Even if they travel in groups, there is a high chance of them being killed by the tormented souls.
"Furthermore, after killing the tormented soul, one's body will be contaminated with the Evil Qi. One has to completely refine or expel the Evil Qi before killing the other tormented souls. Otherwise, the Evil Qi will devour one's heart and cause one to lose one's mind. The consequences will be unimaginable."
Jun Wu Xie nodded and said, "I understand. Participating in the trial is indeed a chance for my two junior brothers to quickly raise their realms. Don't worry. With me around, I will definitely ensure that they return alive. "
"We know your strength, but we must not let our guard down this time." Lord Alcohol's expression was solemn as he said, "The trial ground has not been opened for a thousand years. There must be a reason why the Mountain Bearing Sword Sect suddenly agreed to open the trial ground.
"It is impossible that they are only responding to the Daiga Ken Sect's request. They must have their own desires. It is said that more than a thousand years ago, a Guardian of the Mountain Bearing Sword Sect entered the trial ground for some reason, but he never returned. Later on, the Mountain Bearing Sword Sect sent people to search for him several times, but to no avail. "
"Lord Alcohol, what do you mean?"
A glint flashed in Lord Alcohol's eyes as he said, "I suspect that the Mountain Bearing Sword Sect is looking for the Heart of the Sword King!"
"What is the Heart of the Sword King?"
"More than a thousand years ago, the Guardian of the Mountain Bearing Sword Sect's Sect Monarch Domain was a Sword Dao Sect Monarch. If such an expert was in an environment with abundant Spirit Qi, it was possible for him to condense his life's Sword Dao into an energy crystal before he died. This kind of crystal is called the Heart of the Sword King. If one can obtain the Heart of the Sword King, the Mountain Bearing Sword Sect will be able to promote a new Sword Dao Monarch to the Sect Monarch Realm within a year! "
Jun Wu Xie's heart skipped a beat when he heard that. He said to Lord Alcohol, "If the Heart of the Sword King is in your hands, can you use it to become a Sword King?"
Lord Alcohol's eyes were immediately filled with hope and yearning. His eyes were especially bright.
But immediately, the light in his eyes dimmed as he said with some desolation, "Just think about it. Ignoring the fact that it is impossible for the Heart of the Sword King to fall into our hands, even if I have the Heart of the Sword King, it is impossible for my body to break through to the Sect Monarch realm …"
When he said that, Uncle Bird could not help but sigh.
"Why is it impossible?"
Jun Wu Xie felt that Lord Alcohol and Uncle Bird seemed to be hiding something from him.
"A hundred years ago, there was an accident when Uncle-Master and I were retrieving the Spring of Life. In order to save me, Uncle-Master was struck by a Frost Beast. There has always been a wisp of Frost Qi in his body that is difficult to refine and expel. This is also the reason why you, Lord Alcohol, drink wine every day.
"Uncle-Master's wine is Flaming Wine soaked in Flaming Pills to suppress the Frost Qi. Due to the Frost Qi, Uncle-Master's realm has not improved in the past hundred years … "
"Old man, you are so miserable …"
Jun Wu Xie didn't expect that Lord Alcohol had always been suffering from a hidden illness.
However, the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.
This left Lord Alcohol and Uncle Bird baffled.
Could it be that this brat was rejoicing in his misfortune?
"Don't look at me like that. It's just a Frost Qi in my body. How big of a deal is that?" As Jun Wu Xie spoke, he shook off a few seeds from the Scorching Sun Flower and handed one to Lord Alcohol. "Take a look. Can this thing refine the Frost Qi in your body?"
"Kid, if the Frost Qi in your Lord Alcohol's body was so easy to expel, how could it have remained until today?" Uncle Bird shook his head and said, "How high grade can this seed be? Let me tell you, unless it's a superior-grade seven-star … "
His voice came to an abrupt halt.
His eyes widened as the golden light of the Scorching Sun Flower seed was reflected in his pupils. He swallowed his saliva hard.
As for Lord Alcohol, he was already dumbfounded. His lips and body trembled slightly.
"What … What is this?"
Lord Alcohol and Uncle Bird spoke in unison, their voices trembling.
The sunflower seed in Jun Wu Xie's hand emitted an extremely rich Scorching Sun Qi. This Scorching Sun energy was too pure, beyond imagination!
"Scorching Sun Flower seed, Saint-grade!"
Jun Wu Xie smiled brightly. The Frost Qi was nothing. What kind of Frost Qi couldn't be cured by the Saint-grade Scorching Sun Flower seed?
Qin Keqing's Nine Yin Terminal Meridians could be treated with the Scorching Sun Flower seed, not to mention the Frost Qi left in Lord Alcohol's body by the Frost Beast.
"Wuxie, are you sure this is for me?"
Lord Alcohol even stuttered.
He had been searching for Spiritual Purity all his life. He was considered knowledgeable, but at this moment, his entire heart was trembling.
Saint-grade!
He didn't even dare to think about such a thing!
Not to mention a Grandmaster like him, even peerless experts at the Sage Sect realm wouldn't dare say that they could take out a Saint-grade treasure!
Saint-grade treasures could only be found by chance!
With such an item, not only could he expel the Frost Qi in his body, but he could also replenish the Yang Qi he had lost over the years. He was bound to break through in a short period of time.
