Chapter 275 Shocking Four Seats
Chapter 275 Shocking Everyone
After sending Ah Can and his group into the small world of Tian Long Ba Bu, Bai Ke returned to Chi Jie Cliff to cultivate in peace.
Two days later, Bai Ke, who was practicing the improved version of "The Great Shift of Heaven and Earth", suddenly felt a powerful pressure coming from outside the door.
He opened the door and saw the imposing Bai Yan standing outside, calmly looking at him.
"are you ready?"
"Of course, Father."
"Let's go."
Bai Yan nodded and instantly disappeared. Bai Ke was not to be outdone, using his Immortal Crossing technique to its fullest extent, and followed beside Bai Yan.
At this moment, the elders were gathered in the Ascending Heaven Hall of Tian Ce Peak. Ning Fengyi sat on the sect leader's throne, gazing intently at the door.
"They've arrived," Ning Fengyi thought to herself.
Suddenly, Bai Ke and Bai Yan appeared at the door and entered the main hall at the same time.
Bai Yan returned to his position as Supreme Elder, while Bai Ke stood in the center of the hall alongside Lin Xiu.
Lin Xiu glanced coldly at Bai Ke, a hint of killing intent flashing in his eyes.
"Greetings, Sect Leader and all Elders!" Bai Ke announced loudly.
"Alright, everyone's here, let's begin," Ning Fengyi said, waving her hand.
An elderly man stepped forward from the elders' assembly, holding a piece of jade in each hand. He approached Bai Ke and Lin Xiu and said in a deep voice:
"The Heavenly Strategy Holy Son Selection will officially conclude today. The elders have given you corresponding scores based on three stages: personal cultivation, group experience, and sect contributions."
"This is your score tally. You can also increase your score by submitting treasures to the sect." The old man divided the jade into two parts and handed them to Bai Ke and Lin Xiu respectively, then turned around and sat back down in the elders' seat.
Bai Ke unfolded the jade scroll, on which were written: 400 points for personal cultivation, 400 points for team training, and 200 points for sect contribution.
Needless to say, Lin Xiu's score statistics are impressive; his contribution to the sect alone accounts for a full thousand points.
Do you have any objections to this points-based evaluation system?
"No!" Lin Xiu and Bai Ke answered in unison.
"Alright, you can now increase your points by submitting treasures to the sect. Do you have any treasures to offer?"
"Yes!" Lin Xiu and Bai Ke shouted in unison again, Lin Xiu glaring at Bai Ke with displeasure. He then stepped forward, took an old book from the storage necklace around Bai Ke's neck, and said to the sect leader:
"This disciple presents a low-grade Earth-rank cultivation technique!"
"Low-grade Earth Rank!?" Ning Fengyi raised an eyebrow, slightly angry. He hadn't expected that old geezer Xing Jian had such a precious cultivation technique hidden away. He then called out, "Elder Liu, please help me appraise it."
Liu Yiji, a highly experienced elder, stepped out from the elders' seat, took the ancient book from Lin Xiu's hand, and began to carefully peruse it.
After a while, Liu Yiji raised his head and announced, "The ancient cultivation manuals from the ancient cultivation era are genuine."
An uproar erupted among the elders, who began to discuss the matter.
"A low-grade Earth-rank item! How precious! What a grand gesture!"
"The Heavenly Strategy Palace's inherited cultivation technique, the Heavenly Strategy Reverse Immortal Technique, is only a high-grade Earth-rank technique."
"A low-grade Earth-rank cultivation technique is considered a rare treasure in the entire Mountain and Sea Realm."
Seeing this, Ning Fengyi pressed her hand down to signal for quiet. After discussing with the elders in charge of evaluating the points, she said, "This low-grade Earth-rank cultivation technique is worth one thousand points."
Lin Xiu was overjoyed upon hearing this, and looked at Bai Ke triumphantly, thinking to himself: Now what do you have to compete with me!
"Heh, it's just a low-grade Earth-rank cultivation technique. Why are you all so agitated, elders?" Bai Ke chuckled.
"Bai Ke, what peerless treasure do you have to offer this time?" Ning Fengyi asked meaningfully.
All the elders looked at Bai Ke, who remained calm and composed.
He slowly took out a piece of stone from his storage ring, held it high, and showed it to everyone present.
Upon seeing the damaged martial arts manuals engraved on the stone wall, the elders were immediately struck by a jolt and stood up, approaching the wall. Their eyes and minds were instantly drawn to the profound patterns within.
This is the original projection on the stone wall from last time!
The creators of the stone wall inscribed their understanding of heaven and earth and nature stroke by stroke on the stone wall, each stroke containing a pure and profound understanding of the laws.
This is a masterpiece within the cultivation system of the small world in the novel *Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils*, a testament to the indomitable struggle of those geniuses who amazed the world despite the constraints imposed by the Heavenly Dao! The martial arts techniques on the stone wall are their own paths of enlightenment, gleaned under immense adversity!
The appearance of this item shocked everyone present! The elders stared intently at the martial arts techniques inscribed on the stone wall, exclaiming in excitement:
"A divine object! A divine object containing the power of laws!"
"Incredible! The power of laws on this stone wall is not only complete, but also incredibly pure!"
"My cultivation level is actually increasing! Heavens! Give me another six months to comprehend it, and I will definitely be able to break through the bottleneck of the Returning to the Void Realm!"
Liu Yiji's reaction was the most intense. He felt that his cultivation, which had not progressed for many years, was gradually rising as his understanding deepened, and the barrier to his Void Returning Realm cultivation was actually loosening!
He walked unsteadily to Bai Ke and bowed deeply. The elders and Bai Yan rushed to his feet to help him up, repeatedly saying, "Elder Liu, you mustn't do this! You mustn't do this!"
But Liu Yi stubbornly bent down, and after a long while, he raised his head and said to Bai Ke with tears in his eyes, "Young friend, I finally have hope of breaking through to the Void Returning Realm! Thank you, I owe you a huge favor!"
Bai Ke felt awkward being bowed so deeply to such an elderly man on his deathbed. He personally helped the emotional Liu Yiqing up and escorted him back to the elders' seat.
Lin Xiu was stunned. He secretly ran to Xing Jian's side and asked anxiously, "Father, Father! What should we do?"
Xing Jian's face was grim as he glared at Bai Ke, who was surrounded by the elders like stars around the moon, but he felt a sense of powerlessness. Faced with his son's plea for help, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Go back to where you were and stand still."
Lin Xiu's plea for help went unanswered, so he had no choice but to slink back home.
Gong Yu, standing next to Xing Jian, also had a gloomy expression. He exchanged a glance with Xing Jian, and they both understood the meaning conveyed in each other's eyes.
This child cannot be kept!
The lively atmosphere in the main hall lasted for quite a while until Ning Fengyi put away the stone wall, which finally quieted down.
Seeing the flushed faces of the elders present, Ning Fengyi couldn't help but chuckle.
What's the point of comparing these two? We can skip the scoring process!
Ning Fengyi only exchanged two sentences with the elders in charge of evaluating the points before being turned away by their impatient looks.
He could only say, with a wry smile:
"Hmm... After careful consideration, we have unanimously decided that this treasure is worth..."
