#284 - Chapter 284: Breakthrough, but Can’t Get Out
Yin Hour.
The people from the Star Observation Pavilion saw that the elimination was almost complete, so they reported to Mu Qianyuan.
Mu Qianyuan instructed the elder to ring the large bell.
“Clang… Clang… Clang…”
As the large bell rang, those whose golden flags were still lit advanced.
And those who had been hiding from beginning to end were extremely fortunate.
Mu Qianqian waved her hand, removed the house, and carried the large flag back.
“Do we need to wait for Senior Brother Xiaobai?” Ji Changsheng asked.
“No need, anyway, we are not far from the spirit boat, he will naturally return after he breaks through,” Lin Yaoyao said softly.
When Xiaobai was breaking through, she sensed a trace of demonic energy.
After he finishes breaking through, Lin Yaoyao will question him thoroughly.
The group quickly carried the golden flag back and returned to the spirit boat to rest.
…
Underground.
Xiaobai could no longer restrain the demonic energy in his body. The demonic energy was released, dyeing the entire ground black.
And his golden core was constantly expanding, and there were many cracks, just like a demon core.
The yin and yang dual cores revolved in the air, but they never transformed into a nascent soul.
Xiaobai was half gold and half black, his physical body consolidated to the extreme.
“Break! Just break!” Xiaobai endured and shouted.
He had experience in breaking a golden core to form a nascent soul, but now it was especially difficult to break the yin and yang dual cores together.
Xiaobai’s eyes flashed, he guided with both hands, manipulating the golden core and the demon core, making them collide.
“Bang… Bang…”
Each collision caused the ground to shake, just like an earthquake.
The yin and yang dual cores also cracked more and more with the impact.
“Break for me!”
Xiaobai shouted loudly, and the yin and yang dual cores slammed together.
“Bang!”
“Rumble!”
The violent collision caused a great tremor in the ground, and many people who were resting were awakened.
“Is it an earthquake?” Some people who didn’t know asked around.
“It’s okay, it’s just the earth dragon turning over,” Mu Qianyuan said with a smile.
He also knew what had happened.
Deep underground,
The yin and yang dual cores shattered completely after the collision, and two nascent souls appeared on Xiaobai’s sides.
One was a cyan spiritual energy nascent soul, and the other was a jet-black demonic energy nascent soul with a fierce look.
Both nascent souls looked like miniature versions of Xiaobai, sitting on Xiaobai’s sides.
Xiaobai absorbed the spiritual energy and demonic energy passed back from the shattered golden core, his strength soared, and he successfully broke through to the Nascent Soul stage.
After a while,
Xiaobai put the nascent souls into the dantian in his body. The demon nascent soul sat in the previous demon core position, and the spirit nascent soul sat in the position of the living spirit core.
The two of them were still incompatible like fire and water. If it weren’t for a line separating them, they would definitely fight.
Xiaobai understood this, spiritual power and demonic energy were inherently incompatible.
“I broke through, I’m not afraid of Senior Sister anymore,” Xiaobai rejoiced secretly.
Suppress Senior Sister!
Xiaobai got up and punched upwards, but only knocked down a layer of soil.
“How many layers did the Earth Spirit bury me in!” Xiaobai muttered, took out the spirit halberd and kept poking upwards, but he couldn’t see the light at all.
Xiaobai increased his strength and kept digging upwards.
The Earth Mother casually pressed down, pushing Xiaobai into the ground three thousand meters.
So at this time, Xiaobai could only laboriously dig upwards to get out.
On the spirit boat.
Ye Kong closed his eyes to rest, and suddenly remembered something.
“Ye Ling, did we forget something?” Ye Kong asked.
The Earth Mother glanced at Ye Kong and said unhappily, “Either call me Earth Mother, or call me Ling, don’t add a surname.”
“Okay, Ye Ling,” Ye Kong said.
The Earth Mother rolled her eyes at Ye Kong, too lazy to answer Ye Kong.
Ye Kong was distracted by the Earth Mother and forgot what he wanted to ask.
“Forget it, it’s probably nothing important, I won’t ask,” Ye Kong closed his eyes and continued to sleep.
He always felt that something was missing, but he couldn’t remember it for a while.
The rest of the night was very peaceful.
The next morning.
Chen Hour.
Mu Qianyuan landed on the arena, looked around, and shouted:
“All advanced contestants, gather at the arena in a quarter of an hour.”
As soon as these words came out, many advanced people walked onto the arena.
Lin Yaoyao was about to take her junior brothers and sisters to the arena when she found that Xiaobai had not returned.
“Master, Xiaobai hasn’t returned yet,” Lin Yaoyao ran to Ye Kong and said.
Ye Kong woke up immediately upon hearing this.
“I said something was missing, it turned out that Xiaobai was missing,” Ye Kong realized.
Saying that, Ye Kong looked at the Earth Mother.
The Earth Mother looked at the place where Xiaobai was suppressed and pointed to the moving soil there.
“He’s coming out.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiaobai’s head came out of the soil, and then Xiaobai pulled his body out and lay on the ground looking at the sun in the sky.
“I’m exhausted,” Xiaobai gasped for breath.
The joy of just breaking through was gone.
Digging in the ground all night almost exhausted him.
With his strength, he could completely break out of the ground, but the Earth Mother personally suppressed Xiaobai, and the ground was extremely hard, so Xiaobai could only dig slowly.
Lin Yaoyao looked at Xiaobai, who was covered in dirt, and waved her hand to draw water and splashed it on Xiaobai’s body.
Xiaobai woke up immediately and cursed, “Who is it, so lacking in virtue!”
“Me, your Senior Sister!” Lin Yaoyao frowned and shouted.
Xiaobai pouted and thought to himself: “Senior Sister, you wait, I will suppress you later!”
“Hurry up to the arena, the third competition is about to begin.”
Xiaobai used spiritual power to dry the water on his body and walked onto the arena.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Mu Qianyuan announced: “The third round, find the flag, I will hide sixty golden flags within a thousand miles, finding them and bringing them back to insert them on the arena will be considered an advance.”
Xiaobai raised his hand and asked: “Then can I stay here and wait for people to find them and then snatch them?”
Mu Qianyuan nodded slightly and said: “As long as the other party has not taken the golden flag to the arena, you can snatch it!”
As soon as these words came out, many disciples with weak strength were immediately dissatisfied.
“Why, the things we worked so hard to find, seeing that we are about to go to the arena, are snatched by others, this is too unfair.”
“That’s right, this competition is not fair at all.”
“Yes.”
Mu Qianyuan looked coldly at the disciples of other sects and said slowly: “The competition rules formulated by my Star Observation Pavilion are simplified based on the Thirteen Continents Competition.”
“If you think it’s unfair, then quit!”
“This is the world of cultivation, there is no absolute fairness, everything depends on strength!”
Mu Qianyuan’s words left them speechless.
Although everyone felt it was unfair, that was the reality.
No one will give you fairness.
“The competition begins!” Mu Qianyuan announced directly.
Xiaobai walked down the arena, called Erha, then jumped up, sat down, and slowly went to find the golden flag, and by the way, find a chance to suppress Senior Sister.
Many disciples who thought they were strong directly guarded the edge of the arena, preparing to rob.
Mu Qianyuan shook his head and smiled, robbing the golden flag was very difficult.
