Chapter 135: Songtao Pavilion [Second Update]

  Dongfu Hall is the cave left by Dongfu Xianren, and it is also the best cave in the entire Dongfu. In addition to its rich spiritual energy, the cave itself has many ingenious mechanisms, such as Songtao Pavilion. The Songtao Pavilion is like the Sword Cave of Wukong Jianmen, with a separate cave heaven. However, compared to the relatively unknown reputation of Wukong Jianmen's Sword Cave, Dongfu Hall's Songtao Pavilion is famous outside.

  Inside Songtao Pavilion, the terrain is treacherous and steep, with towering peaks and vast spaces. Moreover, the successive masters of Dongfudian have always domesticated spiritual beasts within it, most of which are extremely ferocious. Every generation of disciples would often enter Songtao Pavilion for training after the Condensation Period. This is also why there are so many people who look up to Yu Bai in various major casinos. To others, the unfamiliar Songtao Pavilion is just Yu Bai's backyard.

  A unique and extraordinary treasure like Songtao Pavilion requires immense magical power to refine. Almost all sects with some foundation were created by their ancestors at the time of establishment, spending countless magical powers to open up as the sect's foundation. Inside Songtao Pavilion, cultivators below the Golden Elixir stage can fight without causing any damage. Of course, those tamed spirit beasts in between cannot escape unscathed.

  The entire Donghu has only two places with Dongtian Fa Bao: the Donghu Palace and the Wu Kong Sword Gate, but the sword cave of the Wu Kong Sword Gate is almost unknown to anyone.

  The heads of the other sects looked at Tiansongzi opening Songtao Pavilion with envy, especially the head of the Lingying Sect. This can be seen from the depth of a sect's foundation. Even if the Lingying Sect is now rich, in the eyes of those slightly higher-level cultivators, it is just a nouveau riche sect.

  Dongtian Fa Bao cannot be bought with crystal stones. Refining this type of Fa Bao requires not only immense magical power, but also a huge price to pay. Except for refining it for one's own sect, no one would refine Dongtian Fa Bao for sale.

  Pei Yuannian and a few others were very calm, the sword cave of the Kongmen was mysterious, compared to Songtao Pavilion, it had surpassed it. Even they, every time they talked about the sword cave, couldn't help but feel nostalgic for their ancestors' grandeur. Although they are now all in the Golden Elixir stage and are well-known masters in the Tianyue realm, they still don't have the ability to refine the Dongtian treasure.

  One hundred cultivators who participated in the final round of trials stood quietly, but many of them had a curious expression on their faces. Many of them had never entered the Dongtian Treasure before and were extremely curious. As for Gu Rongping and other disciples of the Great Gate Sect, they either looked calm or gazed at others with disdain, feeling superior in their hearts.

  The surrounding Songtao Pavilion, the "Mirage Shadow Array" was slowly activated, and the seven-colored light beams swam like countless fish, gradually appearing as a faint mirage above the Songtao Pavilion.

  The mirage rapidly grew larger and clearer until it enveloped the entire sky above Dong Fu. What appeared before everyone's eyes was an unusually calm world.

  Lofty peaks of emerald green mountains, steep terrain, as if written with bold and vibrant ink, with glimpses of spiritual beasts roaming between the peaks.

  Such a clear and large-scale mirage is rarely seen, and many people can't help but exclaim in surprise. The monks who came from afar are all celebrating that their trip was not in vain, such a grand scene is rarely seen.

  Whether floating in the air or on the ground, it is very convenient to watch this vast mirage.

  At this time, the east floating formed a peculiar and unparalleled scene. In the sky, countless cultivators were floating densely, some high and some low, with people flying back and forth from time to time, adjusting their angles and constantly marveling at the sight. On the ground, some people brought out deck chairs, while others squatted on rooftops, looking up at the enormous mirage in the sky.

  All of them are repairmen!

  Hundreds of thousands of practitioners gathered in Donghu, as far as the eye could see, like ants, densely packed.

  "What a grand scene!" An elderly master from a foreign school couldn't help but praise: "Magnificent!"

  "Tian Songzi indeed has the guts, worthy of being the master of Dong Fu." Another elder beside him said: "Such a grand gathering, if it can be held every few years, it would not be a bad thing!"

  "It's difficult! The number of sects in the Tianyue realm that possess Dongtian-class treasures can be counted on one hand. Even if there are any, who would be willing to take them out for a trial like Tiansongzi?"

  "Indeed! Who doesn't deeply fear that the Heavenly Treasures are not hidden deeply enough? Like Tian Songzi, this is actually the first time I've seen someone do something like this. I have no idea what he's thinking!"

  "Tian Songzi is someone I've met before, he doesn't seem like a simple person, he must have some plan in mind."

  ……

  As they talked on, the topic of conversation among the elderly people unknowingly went off track.

  "Who do you think will win?" one of the elders suddenly asked.

  "Gu Yongping!"

  "Gu Yongping!"

  "Nature is Gu Rongping. The Xinhulian Sword Sect has a profound foundation, and it is one of the top sects in this realm. Gu Rongping himself is a once-in-a-century genius, and it's really hard to find someone who can match him."

  Everyone has a very consistent opinion on this point.

  "What about Gu Yongping?" An elderly man who rarely spoke suddenly opened his mouth.

  "That guy is a bit mysterious, quite capable."

  "Kui Feng's 'Little Ghost Sword' is quite mature, I have high hopes for him."

  "Wei Sheng won those two battles quite decisively, but this Wu Kong Jian Men is unheard of, probably a small sect." An elder said with some hesitation.

  "Speaking of Wu Kong Jian Men, it's not to be underestimated. The three disciples who participated in the competition actually all made it to the final round."

  Upon hearing this, the elder who was looking at Su snorted with laughter: "Don't bring up such things, that zombie-like guy only made it to the final round by relying on Rou Kong. All one can say is that Wu Kong Jian Men and Tian Song Zi have a good relationship."

  Another elder immediately retorted: "Although this guy's cultivation is a bit low, he still has some skill."

  The elder who was watching him immediately retorted: "Are you sure you're looking at him?"

  "How is that possible!" The elder shook his head: "The gap between the foundation-building period and the pulse-condensing period is too great, and there is also the precedent of Chong An. Even if he sees him, he won't be careless again. He's just a foundation-building cultivator, how many tricks can he have? I reckon he's already used them all up, his seniors probably just let him go to gain some experience."

  "Does anyone vouch for him?" The elder who had been looking at him turned to ask others.

  "Haha! Whoever wants to take care of him, I'll admire them greatly!"

  "Haha..."

  ……

  A group of elders were enthusiastically discussing. Those from the same sect would also exchange ideas to see if there were any suitable candidates.

  Zuo Mo was among the many cultivators, looking around in all directions. Although his face was expressionless like a zombie's, his eyes were shining with curiosity.

  In private, he was chatting with Pu Yao.

  "Po, who do you think is more powerful, Songtao Pavilion or Sword Cave?"

  "All trash." Pu You said with disdain.

  Zuo Mo was momentarily speechless, and rolled his eyes, retorting in the same tone: "Aren't you a heavenly demon? Can you refine one?"

  The demon Pú Yāo said with a shameless tone: "I'm playing with something that's not fun at all, it's so boring."

  Zuo Mo finally knew why he was just a foundation stage cultivator while Pu Yao was a heavenly demon, it was completely proportional to the thickness of their faces.

  He suddenly noticed that Gu Rongping seemed to have glanced at him unintentionally. Although Gu Rongping covered it up well, Zuo Mo keenly captured the emotions hidden in that glance.

  No way!

  Someone like me is not worth Gu Yongping's attention, it must be my own misconception.

  "Be careful!" Pu Yao suddenly said in a low voice.

  "What?"

  "Someone just used the Scouting Technique."

  "What's the trick of the Exploration Method?" Zuo Mo was stunned for a moment before exclaiming in surprise: "No way!"

  He was just about to take a look around when Pu Yao suddenly shouted: "Don't look!"

  Zuo Mo didn't dare move for a moment and obediently stayed in place. He rarely saw Pu Yao so tense, with an expression as if he was facing a great enemy.

  Someone used the probing technique, and he pretended to be normal, sweeping his eyes around, but no one's expression was unusual, not even Gu Rongping seemed to have noticed that someone had just used the probing technique.

  Zuo Mo's heart was shocked, to be able to use the probing technique on so many people without anyone discovering it, what kind of terrifying cultivation must the practitioner have!

  "Hmph, looks like someone's got their eyes on me." The Peony Demon sneered, but her words were fearless.

  "How did you know I was staring at you?" Zu Mo subconsciously added a sentence.

  "Isn't it just 'Candle Eyes'? I've encountered it several times." The Pú Yāo's tone grew even colder, filled with deep disgust: "Just like Zhēn Xiū's 'Tianyǎn Tōng', how annoying!"

  Hearing such a tone full of hatred, and thinking about Pu Yao's vengeful personality, Zuo Mo didn't need to guess to know that Pu Yao must have been wronged by this spell before. He suddenly tensed up: "Has the other party discovered you?"

  Pu Yao heard this and suddenly became somewhat pleased, heh-heh laughing: "The other party would never think that I'd be in your mind's eye. Although this candle's gaze is formidable, it can only investigate demonic energy. Don't worry, as long as you don't reveal anything unusual, the other party will be unable to guess even if they crack their skull."

  "That's good." Zuo Mo felt slightly relieved in his heart.

  Just then, Tiansongzi stood out. All eyes were focused on him.

  Tiansongzi's self-cultivation and nature-nurturing efforts were extremely profound, yet seemingly imperceptible. With a calm tone, he said, "Are you all ready? I will soon send you into the Songtao Pavilion."

  After speaking, he began to operate his magic power. His legs stood upright and still, his palms lightly rotated, and spiritual energy gushed out.

  Everyone only felt that the seemingly ordinary Tian Songzi's body suddenly became extremely tall and majestic, like a thousand-year-old ancient pine tree, with a strong and sturdy aura. His feet were like countless roots deeply embedded in the ground, as stable as a boulder, unmoving even in strong winds and rains. And that vast, wave-like oppressive feeling almost enveloped the entire Dong Fu.

  Apart from the cultivators above the Golden Elixir stage, who were calm and composed, even Gu Rongping, a cultivator below the Golden Elixir stage, who was known for his elegant demeanor, couldn't help but change color. Yu Bai's eyes gleamed with fervor as he looked at his master, his heart filled with pride. Wei Sheng was also affected, his face showed no signs of retreat, instead he raised his head, his eyes widened, and his hands clenched into fists involuntarily.

  Good grief, what a formidable old man! Zuo Mo secretly cursed in his heart, but after comparing Tian Songzi and the Second Elder, he still felt that the Second Elder was more terrifying.

  "Hiss!"

  Tian Songzi let out a loud shout.

  Only to see a hundred cultivators suddenly float up with countless rays of light under their feet, the lights flashing, and they disappeared without a trace.
