#61 - Chapter 61: The Magic Palace is coming

Time flew by, and ten days passed.

During these days, everyone was preparing for the Nine Peaks Competition, and the entire Galaxy Sect was much quieter.

The Nine Peaks Competition concerns the ranking order of the nine peaks, the allocation of resources, and the embodiment of the sect's strength.

The sect was completely quiet, mainly because the sect master had said a few days ago.

Anyone who causes trouble or makes mistakes in the sect will have their entire peak disqualified from the competition.

For this reason, the peak masters of each peak, considering their own peaks, ordered all disciples to retreat and cultivate.

They were not allowed to leave seclusion until the Nine Peaks Competition was held, and those who violated this would be directly expelled from the peak.

Of course, expelling people from the peak was also a way to protect themselves.

Once the person is expelled, their mistakes have nothing to do with my peak.

This is called having countermeasures from above and policies from below.

On逍遥 Peak.

Ye Kong was fishing with a fishing rod, and Little White and Lin Yaoyao had also been diligently cultivating during this time.

Although they didn't care about the Nine Peaks Competition, it was, after all, related to the survival of 逍遥 Peak.

In order to continue staying on 逍遥 Peak, they still had to pay attention to it.

By the Bitter Sea.

Ye Kong raised his fishing rod, Qi Training +1…

A day of fishing is often so simple and unadorned.

Ye Kong, with his hands behind his back, was about to return when he heard the system's voice in his ear.

"Ding, it has been detected that the Demonic Sect is about to pay a visit, and a reception task is now issued."

"Reception task: The host is to welcome the Demonic Sect. Task reward: One special item fishing opportunity."

The system's voice slowly faded.

Ye Kong frowned slightly when he heard this, "What is the Demonic Sect coming for?"

"And according to the system, they are coming openly and honestly. Are they here to die?"

Ye Kong was hesitating whether to wipe out the Demonic Sect.

"Forget it, I'll see what happens. Since it's a reception, I can't let them all die here, right?"

Ye Kong shook his head and returned to his 逍遥 Pavilion to lie down and rest.

The Demonic Sect hasn't arrived yet, so he'll wait until they come before going out to receive them.

…

In a hurry, more than ten days passed.

In these ten days, the sect had already begun to arrange the Nine Peaks Competition.

The Law Enforcement Hall had been dispatched, and Qin Shou and Chen Changqing had also been released.

The time for the Nine Peaks Competition was not far away.

The Nine Peaks Competition was getting closer and closer.

Everyone was preparing for the Nine Peaks Competition, only 逍遥 Peak was still unhurried.

"Junior Brother Qin Shou, don't forget our plan!"

"Don't worry, Senior Brother Changqing, there are only two people on 逍遥 Peak. It's a sure thing to block them in the Nine Peaks Competition."

Qin Shou said with a faint smile.

After the two bid farewell to each other, one returned to the Beast Control Peak and the other returned to the Heavenly Sword Peak.

In the following days, the Galaxy Sect called back all the disciples who were performing tasks outside.

The Nine Peaks Competition was approaching, and all tasks were temporarily put on hold.

The Galaxy Sect was preparing for the Nine Peaks Competition.

On 逍遥 Peak.

Little White rode on the back of Erha, wandering around.

After many days of cultivation, he had broken through from the early stage of Foundation Establishment to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.

It had been a few days since Little White broke through to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. After breaking through, he didn't cultivate, but instead wandered around here and played there every day.

"Senior Sister, my cultivation needs to be steady and solid. It hasn't been long since I broke through, and I need to settle down for a few days," Little White said with a slightly bitter expression.

If it weren't for my master giving me a broken bone to build my foundation, I would have already been in the late stage of Foundation Establishment.

I don't dare to cultivate too quickly now, for fear that my Dao foundation will collapse.

Little White felt bitter in his heart.

"Okay, then you settle down, don't affect my cultivation," Lin Yaoyao waved her hand, letting Little White go play.

Little White rode Erha and galloped away.

Lin Yaoyao shook her head, Little White's talent was still too poor, he couldn't hold on after breaking through.

Lin Yaoyao now, one foot had already stepped into the peak of Foundation Establishment, and she could break through to the peak of Foundation Establishment before the Nine Peaks Competition.

There were still fifteen days until the Nine Peaks Competition.

This amount of time was enough for her to break through.

By the Bitter Sea.

Ye Kong sat on the Bitter Sea fishing, yawning from time to time.

Is the Demonic Sect coming or not?

More than ten days have passed, don't tell me they're not coming.

Could it be…

Is the Demonic Sect coming when the Nine Peaks Competition starts?

Ye Kong suddenly thought that the Demonic Sect was waiting.

Waiting for the Galaxy Sect's Nine Peaks Competition to begin before they come to make trouble.

What deep calculations!

Ye Kong looked at the time, there was still half a month before the Nine Peaks Competition was held.

"There are still fifteen days, so there's no rush," Ye Kong raised his fishing rod, stretched his muscles, and fished with peace of mind.

Fifteen days was neither fast nor slow.

These fifteen days were unusually quiet.

Luo Yangtian was waiting, he was waiting for the arrival of the Demonic Sect.

If the Demonic Sect came, it would prove that there were spies among the high-level members of his Galaxy Sect.

If the Demonic Sect didn't come, then the Nine Peaks Competition would be held normally.

"Demonic Sect, come quickly, I have prepared so many traps for you. If you don't come, then I will have wasted my efforts," Luo Yangtian murmured.

He secretly had the most reliable Grand Elder set up traps in the three competition venues, traps specifically for the Demonic Sect.

If the Demonic Sect dared to come and make trouble, then it would be right in Luo Yangtian's arms.

Not only could he confirm that there were Demonic Sect spies among the high-level members of the sect, but he could also severely damage the Demonic Sect.

A double win.

He wasn't afraid of them coming, he was just afraid of them not coming.

…

Demon Music Palace.

Xu Bubai sat on the throne, his fingers lightly stroking the armrest, making a crisp metallic sound.

In front of him, stood a thousand elite disciples of the Demonic Sect.

They held weapons, ready to go, and all knew what to do.

"I won't waste any more words. This time, I'm taking you to participate in the Galaxy Sect's Nine Peaks Competition. This Palace Master has only one request!"

"Everyone must kill one Galaxy Sect disciple!"

"One Foundation Establishment head is worth ten spirit stones, two heads are worth five pills and twenty spirit stones, and so on!"

"The more you kill, the higher the reward! If you achieve the achievement of killing a hundred people, then I will exceptionally promote you to one of the Demon Music Palace's—Nine Palace Sons!"

Xu Bubai said softly, offering conditions that were tempting enough.

The Nine Palace Sons were the absolute high-level members of the Demon Music Palace in the future, one as the Palace Master and the other eight as elders.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The thousand disciples shouted loudly.

"Black Cloud, are you ready?" Xu Bubai asked.

"The spirit boat is ready. If we set off now, we can arrive before the opening ceremony of the Nine Peaks Competition tomorrow," Black Cloud said with cupped fists.

Xu Bubai heard this and stood up from the throne.

He slowly walked to the outside of the hall and looked up at the dim red sky.

"Then, let's set off!" Xu Bubai said slowly.

…

Galaxy Sect.

Luo Yangtian received a message from an informant planted in the Demon Music Palace.

"Demon Music Palace, as expected, is coming," Luo Yangtian said softly.

"Xu Bubai ah Xu Bubai, don't think that you are the only one who has planted spies in my Galaxy Sect. I have also planted nails in your Demon Music Palace!"
