Chapter 233 - Chapter233

For an ordinary person, a competition and a divine artifact as a reward are rich enough. But for the young master of the Ten - Thousand - Snake Valley or the young master of the Qitian Sect, people from powerful forces, the rewards of the competition are not that remarkable. But why did they fight desperately at the cost of their lives? From the very beginning, Zhou Peng had thought about this problem, and later on, he was even more puzzled. Is a divine artifact really more important than life? If one loses their life, what's the use of having a divine artifact? Moreover, the divine artifacts on the Tianyuan Continent are just toys for children in the outer - realm sky and are not worth mentioning. The reason why Wu Tian had to compete for the first place was the same as that of Liu Shuanghan. Was it all for this first - place title? They were all intelligent people. How could they be so stupid as to fight desperately for an unfounded title? It was completely impossible. Now Zhou Peng had a little clue. They were all aiming at the Overturning Heaven Seal. Walking out of the main hall of the divine palace and following the crowd, Zhou Peng kept thinking about what secrets the Overturning Heaven Seal had. Even Long Xiaotian couldn't figure it out. They were only at the Breaking - Sky realm. What ability did they have to break the seal of the Overturning Heaven Seal? If the seal of the Overturning Heaven Seal couldn't be broken, the Overturning Heaven Seal would be just like a stone, unable to exert any power at all and be completely useless. Besides the Overturning Heaven Seal, the other rewards were not very difficult to obtain. And as long as one entered the top ten, they could get them. Why did they need to fight desperately for the first place? "It must be the Overturning Heaven Seal." Zhou Peng became more and more certain in his heart. The rewards for the disciple ranking competition were announced a month ago. During this period, Wu Tian and Liu Shuanghan must have discovered something; otherwise, they wouldn't have been so desperate. "What secrets are hidden exactly?" Zhou Peng frowned slightly. Puzzled in his heart, he didn't dare to let his mind enter the spatial ring at this time either. There were people all around, and he was still on Long Xiaotian's territory. He had to be extremely careful. Moreover, this spatial ring was the sect - master ring of the Qianji Sect. Long Xiaotian had spent a great deal of effort to look for it. If he knew that the ring was on Zhou Peng, Zhou Peng would surely bring about his own death. "I must find a deserted place to find out..." Unconsciously, Zhou Peng fell to the back of the team. A disciple from the Qianyang Palace, Chen Tai, deliberately slowed down, opened up a distance from the disciples in front, and then walked to Zhou Peng and quietly said, "Zhou Peng. Your master asked me to tell you to be careful of Elder Han." "Uh?!" Zhou Peng's heart tightened, and he looked sideways at Chen Tai, his face slightly changing. After saying that, Chen Tai didn't stay any longer and immediately caught up with the people in front, looking back at Zhou Peng intentionally or unintentionally a few times. "Han Kong?" Zhou Peng was secretly shocked and thought to himself, "There is no golden light on Han Kong. He is not a BOSS. Shen Yan asked me to pay attention to him. Could he also be a BOSS?" "If he is a hidden BOSS..." "A BOSS at the Qiankun realm is not easy to deal with." In Zhou Peng's eyes, he could tell whether someone was a BOSS at a glance. However, he really hadn't seen that Han Kong was a BOSS. But he was also half - believing and half - doubting Shen Yan's words. After all, in his heart, Shen Yan might not be a good person either. She was so concerned about him surely for the Gengjin Qi. It's never a bad thing to be more cautious. Moreover, Shen Yan hadn't obtained the Gengjin Qi yet, so she wouldn't deceive him. Zhou Peng withdrew his thoughts and caught up. A group of eleven people walked for about half an hour and came to another mountain peak. The mountain peak was named Chilian Peak, which was very different from Tian Shen Feng. The Chilian Peak was completely bare. There were no trees, not even a blade of grass, as if it were a huge rock. There was a cave on the mountainside of the peak, named Chilian Cave. The entrance of the cave was artificially chiseled. The path in the cave could allow three people to walk side by side. The cave was dark - gold in color, and a strong and abundant spiritual energy rushed towards them. The deeper they went, the denser the spiritual energy became. After going a hundred meters deep, there were countless rooms on both sides of the cave. At this time, Han Kong stopped and said faintly, "If someone feels unwell, don't worry. It means that your body can't bear the concentration of Gengjin Qi. Step back a certain distance and find a room to start cultivating. As for how far you can go deep, it depends on yourselves." After saying that, Han Kong deliberately looked at Zhao Kunlun. Zhao Kunlun understood and nodded slightly. "Why is there a skeleton in this room?" Someone in the crowd exclaimed, pointing at the room beside them. Han Kong didn't even look and said, "Gengjin Qi contains powerful energy. When introduced into the body for tempering, it can improve qigong, nourish, and break through realms." At this point, Han Kong paused slightly and then changed the topic, "There are advantages and disadvantages. If Gengjin Qi enters the body and is not controlled properly and can't be tempered, it will surely cause a backlash. I don't need to tell you the result. He is just one of those in this Chilian Cave." "Gengjin Qi will cause a backlash? I've never heard of it." "Risk and return have always been proportional. Just be careful." "If you're afraid, get out." Zhao Xuan sneered and said with disdain. The two immediately glared at him, their faces slightly changing, but they didn't dare to say anything. The other party was one of the top ten disciples, and their strength was far stronger than theirs. If several of the top ten hadn't died, they wouldn't have had the chance to enter Tianwaitian at all. On someone else's territory, they naturally had to lower their posture. Seeing that they didn't speak, Zhao Xuan sneered and said, "Waste." When saying the word "waste", Zhao Xuan stared at Zhou Peng, his tone full of provocation. The four Zhao - family disciples beside him also sneered at Zhou Peng, and a strong killing intent was released from them. Zhou Peng also sneered but didn't say anything. "Enough." Han Kong shouted sternly, and then glared at Zhao Kunlun. Zhao Kunlun looked the other way as if he hadn't seen it. Subsequently, after going about thirty meters deeper, someone felt unwell and immediately backed out several zhang and entered a room to start cultivating. As they went deeper, gradually some disciples couldn't adapt and began to enter the rooms on both sides of the cave to cultivate. Finally, only the five major disciples and Zhou Peng were left. Han Kong was slightly shocked in his heart. Being able to go two hundred meters deep into the Chilian Cave for the first time was something that even Zhao Donglai could only do one hundred and eighty meters for the first time. Zhou Peng was really amazing. This Chilian Cave was not based on cultivation level but on personal physique, or it could be said on talent. All of the top ten disciples were extremely talented and outstanding, but when they entered the Chilian Cave, they couldn't enter the two - hundred - meter - deep area either. The deeper they went, the denser the Gengjin Qi was and the greater the danger was. Zhou Peng's being able to reach this point really surprised them. But they were all unconvinced in their hearts, and Han Kong also wanted to see how many more meters Zhou Peng could go. Then, they quickened their pace and walked towards the deeper area. For some reason, Zhou Peng couldn't feel any pressure at all and thought it was very strange in his heart. When he entered Tianwaitian, he felt as if a mountain was pressing on his heart, but now he didn't feel anything at all. At first, when he saw that they were unwell, he thought they were faking it, but now it seemed that it was completely not the case. After going another hundred meters deeper, Zhou Peng still didn't feel any discomfort. At this time, the faces of the five major disciples had slightly changed, and their breathing became heavier. For them, three hundred meters was already close to their limit. If they went deeper, their bodies could hardly bear it. But when they saw that Zhou Peng hadn't changed at all, they were very unhappy in their hearts and secretly competed with him. "How is it possible?" "How can someone be able to go three hundred meters deep for the first time?" "Is he still human?" Han Kong's heart was like huge waves crashing on the shore. He was extremely shocked and stared at Zhou Peng as if looking at a monster. ...!
