Chapter 330 Spotlight
Although the so-called Celestial Lake Conference was a gathering, it was an opportunity for the three holy lands to display their strength in reality.
There weren’t only three holy lands in the Southern Border. Other than these three holy lands, there were also many forces and sects, and some of these sects were especially powerful.
On the surface, their strength wasn’t weaker than these holy lands.
However, their accumulation was not as strong as those of the holy lands, and they did not have a trump card like those of the holy lands.
Therefore, in order to intimidate these sects, the three holy lands would hold a gathering in many places almost every year.
Next was the segment where the various holy lands displayed their strength.
Many cultivators were also used to this.
Next, they just needed to watch, and it would be over. However, the Jade Sword Holy Land actually introduced Jiang Yi at this year’s Celestial Lake Conference.
This surprised many people.
This was because Jiang Yi was famous for his strange personality.
A cloud platform slowly rose, directly forming a cage in the air.
Battle!
This was something that cultivators couldn’t avoid in their entire lives.
Therefore, this Celestial Lake Conference naturally required a battle.
The three great holy lands would take turns sending people to battle on this cloud platform.
The winner would then decide on the quota to bathe in the immortal lake.
At this stage, the other factions or vagabond cultivators would be able to go up and battle.
In the end, in this sort of battle with no rules, five quotas would be chosen.
These five quotas would be the quota to bathe in the immortal lake.
Did this sound very ridiculous?
There were too many things to be considered, such as choosing the right time to go on stage, choosing the right opponent, and so on.
Without the restrictions of the rules, it could be said that almost everyone had a chance.
As long as one could take one of the five spots, the process was not important, and the key to getting a spot was a cloud bead.
As long as one took it, the spot would belong to them.
The three holy lands had many people. Under normal circumstances, they would fight one-on-one on the cloud platform and then choose different people to challenge.
This was because once they went up for a free-for-all battle, the disciples of the three holy lands would definitely swarm up.
Therefore, the quota for bathing in the immortal lake was actually divided up among the three holy lands.
Occasionally, only a few vagabond cultivators would have the chance to enjoy the wonders of this immortal lake.
“I wonder if there’s a chance to fight for the remaining two quotas.”
“I don’t think there’s a chance! Fairy Qing and the other two people directly occupied three spots! The remaining spots are too difficult to fight for!”
“That might not be the case. There might be a chance in the end!”
Jiang Yi and the other two people automatically occupied three spots by default, so all the cultivators present would be fighting for two spots. ‘Even the weakest is in the Divine Ability realm?’
Zhou Feng looked at the surrounding cultivators and frowned slightly.
It seemed that bathing in the immortal lake wasn’t an easy task.
Those who participated in the competition were all in the Divine Ability realm, and there were very few in the Purple Mansion realm.
This meant that he was naturally at a disadvantage.
He was able to go against the flow of many Divine Ability cultivators with his Purple Mansion cultivation, but standing out from the crowd?
Just thinking about it was extremely difficult.
If there was no need, he would still hide at the side!
Zhou Feng had already made up his mind to hide well and not attempt it.
But just as he was thinking this…
Jiang Yi’s eyes lit up because he had discovered Zhou Feng.
“My friend! I finally found you!”
Jiang Yi’s entire body suddenly moved, and he teleported to Zhou Feng’s side in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Yi had appeared by Zhou Feng’s side before the latter could react.
What followed were the gazes of countless people.
“Who is that person?”
“I don’t know him. This person has actually become friends with Young Master Jiang? He cannot be underestimated!”
“Young Master Jiang actually made friends?”
“Purple Mansion realm? Could it be that he’s hiding his strength?”
Jiang Yi himself represented the Jade Sword Holy Land, and his strength was displayed there.
In this gathering, he could be said to be the irreplaceable main character.
Since he had suddenly appeared at Zhou Feng’s side, this person definitely wasn’t simple.
A true dragon would never be friends with a loach. This was the consensus of everyone.
Sima Di and Fairy Qing also looked over, their eyes filled with scrutiny.
Although Zhou Feng had only displayed the Purple Mansion cultivation, he was definitely hiding his strength in the eyes of others. His true strength was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
They had to pay close attention to it.
In reality, however, Zhou Feng was a Purple Mansion cultivator.
And he didn’t intentionally hide his strength. He was just used to hiding his aura.
When Zhou Feng sensed the changes in his surroundings, a hint of killing intent appeared in his eyes.
This hint of killing intent was directed at Jiang Yi because he was practically putting him on fire.
Zhou Feng had never offended Jiang Yi before, but Jiang Yi’s actions at this moment put him in great danger.
From a certain point of view, he was basically putting a target on his back.
Zhou Feng would never show mercy to those who did that.
Even if Jiang Yi was extremely powerful and he might not be able to defeat him, Zhou Feng still needed to have the attitude that he should have.
“What are you doing?” Zhou Feng said coldly.
“Hehe~ I know that my actions are a little abrupt, but I cannot reveal my reasons for doing so.”
Jiang Yi looked a little embarrassed, and it seemed like he didn’t want to do this, but he still chose to do this for some reason.
Jiang Yi also knew that he would be sending Zhou Feng to the center of the storm by doing this.
However, the Great Elder’s prediction was definitely not wrong.
When he thought of the Great Elder’s prediction, Jiang Yi’s face became resolute again.
“I know you’re looking for the Whale King Musk. As long as you help me obtain a spot and answer a question after bathing in the immortal lake, then the Whale King Musk in my hands will be yours!”
When Jiang Yi said the words ‘Whale King Musk’, Zhou Feng’s face instantly revealed a trace of shock.
“How did you know that I needed the Whale King Musk?”
This was really too strange! Logically speaking, no one should know that he needed the Whale King Musk.
The function of the Whale King Musk itself was very obscure. If one wanted such an item, it would basically be either a Pill Master or an Artifact Master.
or an
After all, not only was this item expensive, but it also didn’t have much of an effect on cultivation.
“Anyway, I just know. How about it? How about this deal?”
Jiang Yi stared at Zhou Feng.
“Okay!”
Although he didn’t know what Jiang Yi was doing, Zhou Feng had no reason to refuse.
If he obtained the Whale King Musk, then his efficiency of soul travel in the great void would greatly increase.
The probability of breaking through to the Divine Ability realm would be magnified infinitely
With such an opportunity in front of him, how could he give it up?
Although there were many risks involved, it was still worth a gamble.
If Jiang Yi deceived him in the end, then Zhou Feng would make him pay a heavy price.
“Good! Oh right! What’s your name? I still don’t know your name!”
Jiang Yi immediately heaved a sigh of relief as if he had accomplished something great.
Zhou Feng withdrew the trace of killing intent in his eyes and simply replied with two words, “Zhou Feng!”
