Chapter 99 Divine Void Sacred Mountain

  "You look so carefree, but in reality, your heart must be filled with resentment! The bet I mentioned earlier is still valid. As long as you can defeat either of the two guards behind me, I will give you this piece of meteoric iron."

  Simma looked at Qin Tianyi, as if wanting to see some emotions on his face that would make him feel comfortable.

  However, as a 9th-level spiritual practitioner with a mental fortitude surpassing that of ordinary spiritual masters, Qin Tianyi's control over his emotions was in no way inferior to that of a Sky Sword Master. In his heart, he indeed harbored murderous intent towards Sima Wuhen, but on the surface, he didn't reveal even a hint of it, instead speaking with a hint of mockery: "If you were to take the stage personally, I would naturally be willing to accompany you... Alas, but speaking of which, my heart really hurts now. A treasure like the 13,000 Condensed Yuan Spirit Dan, lost just like that... How sorrowful, how disappointing. Although, at the first auction, I had already regretted it - something that even a strong practitioner in the King's Realm couldn't refine, I bought it, what could I do with it? It's better to conserve these resources and buy some spirit medicine or spiritual instruments that can quickly improve my cultivation."

  "Hmm!?"

  Simu Wuheng looked at Qin Tianyi, and he couldn't quite understand what was going on in Qin Tianyi's mind at this moment.

  What he did just now was essentially to provoke Qin Tianji onto the life-and-death stage and use the power of his guards to kill him.

  A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. Even if he has the confidence to defeat Qin Tianyi, he will absolutely not take action personally.

  Just don't want to...

  The other party is so cunning and ignores his own repeated provocations.

  Qin Tianji ignored Sima Wuhen and turned to Xia Donglei: "Among these items, the Nine-Turned Xuan Dan is not needed for now. Can it be exchanged with Senior Xia for other items? Do you have Huayuan Lingdan, Jiulian Guiyuan Lingdan, or Xuzhen Zaohua Dan that can help break through to Sword Master?"

  "Dan medicine?"

  Xia Dong Lei glanced at Qin Tian Yi, somewhat surprised that he intended to advance to the Sword Master realm through alchemy, but he didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he directly pulled out a small porcelain bottle from his body and said: "The price of Huayuan Lingdan is around thirty Congyuan Lingdan, but I have three Jiu Lian Guiyuan Lingdan here, which are worth more than one point higher. The market price of this kind of elixir basically won't be lower than two hundred Congyuan Lingdan. Three of them will cost six hundred Congyuan Lingdan from you, in exchange for six Jiuzhuan Xuandan. What do you think?"

  "Thank you."

  Qin Tianyi slightly nodded his head, and the deal was about to be made.

  At this time, a voice suddenly came from the crowd.

  "Wait, you want to break through the Sword Master realm with a pill? I have one Virtual True Creation Spirit Pill here, and I'd like to trade it for the Flame Marrow in your hand. Are you willing to make the exchange?"

  "Is it a fake or real alchemical elixir?"

  Qin Tianji's gaze shifted and landed on an old man who was speaking.

  "While the Xūzhēn Cǎohuà Dān may be slightly inferior to the Huǒpò in your hand in terms of value, its existence is rare and hard to come by. If you were to exchange it, you wouldn't be at a loss."

  Xu Zhen Cao Hua Dan's help in advancing to the Sword Master realm is fundamentally incomparable to that of Jiu Lian Gui Yuan Ling Dan.

  After a moment of contemplation, Qin Tianyi nodded and said, "Let's switch."

  Refreshing.

  The old man said, and quickly took out a small porcelain bottle: "Check the goods."

  Qin Tianyi nodded and carefully verified it again. Based on No. 2's analysis, there was an 80% probability that it was a genuine Virtual Refining Dan.

  Those who are invited are all famous and well-known masters of the Great Xia Dynasty, knowing the roots and the bottom, with little possibility of fake medicine transactions.

  "Since Qin Tianyi has already refined the Virtual and Real Creation Dan, then these Nine-Refined Reverted Spirit Dans of mine are no longer needed."

  "Hehe, more elixirs, more assurance."

  Qin Tianji said, handing those nine-turn Xuan Dan to Xia Donglei.

  "The Xūzhēn Zàohuà Língdān itself is a top-grade impact on the Sword Master realm, and with Qin Tiānyī's threefold liquidization accumulation, I believe this time's advancement to the Sword Master realm will be a natural success. Let us offer our congratulations in advance."

  Watching Qin Tianji take over the elixir, Lichuang hurriedly smiled and congratulated him.

  Qin Tianji took out the materials for refining top-grade spiritual equipment twice in a row, which made him and even Xia Bingyu look at each other with new eyes. Later, he continued to take out various heavenly treasures from his bag, making them wonder if Qin Tianji had really been secretly accepted as a disciple by one of the deputy deans and was being cultivated as a future successor of the Xiansheng Sect.

  "With the help of elixirs, I can break through the Sword Master's boundary, but ultimately, it's hard to enter the realm of elegance. How can I be compared with all of you?"

  "Qin Tianyi is being too modest."

  Xia Bingyu smiled in response, with a warm and intimate smile that made people feel at ease.

  The high-level trading session continued, during which many rare and precious items were put up for sale or exchange. Even a bottle of Blood Moon Condensed Spirit Dan, which Qin Tianyi had wanted to buy, appeared, but when he saw it, Lian Zhong had already made an offer, so Qin Tianyi didn't want to continue competing with him.

  In the end, Xia Bingyu bought a young beast with growth potential that could reach the Sky Sword Master, Fang Tianya bought an inferior spiritual instrument. Of course, the things they bought were naturally far from comparable to the two items in Qin Tianyi's hand in terms of value.

  "Qin Tianji, the next step should be to refine the Nine Refining Return to Yuan Spirit Pill or the Xuanwu Rock. If you don't mind, you can temporarily come to my mansion to cultivate in seclusion for a period of time. I guarantee that no one will disturb your cultivation."

  Xiayu's sincere words of invitation.

  Although she can't guess which deputy dean has accepted Qin Tianyi as a disciple, it's still good to establish a good relationship early on.

  "Thank you for your kindness, Princess Sixteen..."

  Just as Qin Tianyi was about to refuse, Li Zhong had already begun to persuade him: "Qin Tianyi senior, in the Divine Void Academy right now, there are indeed many troubles. Although Gu Wu Shuang is really overbearing and bullying, Qin Tianyi senior will not be afraid of him. However, he has been entrenched in the Divine Void Academy for a long time and has many followers. These people may not become great talents, but after several times of harassment, how can senior still cultivate quietly? How can you impact the Sword Master realm? Moreover, the Divine Void Holy Mountain is about to open, and this trial is related to the allocation of quotas for going to the Divine Void Sect in the near future. The better the results, the higher the probability of being selected to go to the Divine Void Sect. We also hope to be able to go with Qin Tianyi senior."

  "Shenxu Shengshan?"

  "Qin Tianyi had just entered the Shenyuan Academy and didn't understand that this Shenyuan Sacred Mountain training should be considered the last sprint for our Shenyuan Academy's upcoming Shenyuan Sect entrance exam. No, it's not just a training session, but rather a treasure hunt extravaganza! The entire Shenyuan Sacred Mountain is filled with countless heavenly treasures and earthly riches. In each Shenyuan Sacred Mountain training session, there are often many originally unknown students who, due to various strange encounters, rise to prominence and push the original top-ranked students on the Divine Communication List down. Fang Tianya's purpose in coming to the Shenyuan Academy at this time is also to not miss out on this grand event."

  "What Liang said is true. It's said that in the previous session, there was a disciple who originally ranked outside of the top 50 on the Divine Communication List and shouldn't have had any chance of getting into the Divine Void Sect. However, during the trial process on the Divine Void Sacred Mountain, he unexpectedly encountered several great opportunities: spirit stones, heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and spiritual instruments. Relying on these precious items, he not only broke through to the Sword Master realm but also condensed a true flame within his body using the heavenly material and earthly treasure, although it wasn't the true flame of a late-stage Sword Master. Nevertheless, its power was extremely astonishing. Thanks to these opportunities, during the Divine Void Sect's quota competition, he suddenly rose to 9th place on the Divine Communication List and entered the inner sect."

  Xia Bingyu said, looking at Qin Tianyi: "Due to the danger of the Divine Void Sect's entrance examination, the Divine Void Holy Mountain's training does not prohibit killing. Some powerful individuals who rank high on the Divine Ability List will even take the initiative to eliminate potential threats to their status, so many students will form teams voluntarily to reduce the possibility of becoming prey for others. This trial is a matter of life and death, it is the starting point for officially entering the ranks of the strong. Any student who wants to join the Divine Void Sect's Divine Void Academy must face this."

  "Can't help but want to fight..."

  Qin Tianyi murmured.

  The strong, have always risen from the midst of blood and carnage. After joining Shén Xū Academy, he had always felt that the academy's training methods were too gentle, protecting its students too much. Only now did he realize...

  It's just that the rulers of the Divine Void Academy think that the students haven't reached the point where they need to face this kind of bloody baptism yet.

  Qin Tianyi's eyes held a hint of murderous intent as he glanced at Sima Wuhen, whose expression was unpredictable and who was wandering aimlessly.

  It's likely that Sima Wuhen also has a hidden intention to kill him...

  "How much longer until the trial of Divine Sacred Mountain begins?"

  "Twenty-one days, not counting today twenty days, the opening time of Shenyu Sacred Mountain is three months. Within these three months, most students of Shenyu Academy will enter the 300-kilometer-long Shenyu Sacred Mountain to search for opportunities. Among them, students on the Divine List are required to participate compulsorily. One month after the opening of Shenyu Sacred Mountain, it will be the time of the Grand Competition of Shenyu Academy, and then it will be the moment when the quota for entering the Shenyu Sect's entrance examination is decided."

  "Only twenty days! Time is running out..."

  Qin Tianji's mind moved slightly, and he didn't waste any more time: "Then let's disturb the 16th princess."

  "Hehe, it's an honor for Qin Tianyi to come to my mansion, please."

  Xia Bingyu said, with a wave of her hand, leading Qin Tianyi, Fang Tianya, Li Yang and others to the mansion, these people were obviously members who went to participate in the Shenvu Sacred Mountain training 20 days ago.

  As the princess of the Great Xia Dynasty, Xia Bingyu naturally had her own courtyard outside the palace. The richness and grandeur of it far exceeded Qin Tianyi's imagination. If he didn't have the experience from the Federation world, the strange buildings in the steel forest would have caused aesthetic fatigue, and he might have been amazed by the decoration and layout of this temporary palace as well.

  Qin Tianyi bought the Xuan Gui Zhi Yan and exchanged three Jiu Lian Gui Yuan Ling Dan with Xia Dong Lei. He was eager to digest these items into real power. Xia Bingyu was also considerate, quickly arranging a quiet courtyard for Qin Tianyi.
