Chapter 159 My Good Disciple!
"It's the Grand Elder of the Star Palace, Elder Jia, and Elder Wu!"
Inside the main hall, some cultivators from smaller and medium-sized forces showed expressions of joy.
With the Star Palace Elder present, there will be someone to uphold justice.
"Wow, wow, what a fantastic match I've witnessed as soon as I walked in!"
Elder Jia, wearing a golden mask, clapped his hands and spoke in an exaggerated manner.
"Kim Kyu, keep your dog under control!"
The bearded man turned his head to look at Kim Kyu, who was in the middle.
"Hehe, the bearded man's cultivation has improved quite a bit."
Jin Kui stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping over the Nascent Soul stage monsters in the main hall.
He paused slightly when he saw the Lan Clan's Twin Demons.
"The Lan Clan's Twin Demons, I didn't expect you two to still be alive."
Jin Kui's lips curled up, and his aura was fully unleashed.
His peak Yuan-level strength was far more solid than that of the barbarian with the beard.
Sensing Jin Kui's aura, the Nascent Soul cultivators present secretly prepared to make their move.
At this moment, Wan Tianming took the initiative to step forward.
"Jin Kui, why are you presiding over the opening of the Void Heaven Palace this time? Does the rule established by the two saints still apply this time?"
Wan Tianming squinted and asked.
"Hehe, Sect Master Wan, rest assured, the two saints are currently in seclusion."
Although this treasure hunt at the Void Heaven Palace was presided over by me and two law enforcement elders, I was still representing the Star Palace to supervise it.
The rules for the treasure hunt remain the same as in previous years. Anyone who bullies the weak, kills, or steals treasure during the treasure hunt will be considered an enemy of the Star Palace.
They will be attacked by the three of us, as well as relentlessly pursued by Hoshimiya.
However, our Star Palace's supervision is limited to the outer hall of the Void Heaven Palace.
They will not enter the inner sanctuary, nor will they interfere in any matters within it.
Therefore, everyone, let's wait until we enter the inner hall before we fight.
After Jin Kui finished speaking, he specifically looked at Man Hu Zi and the Lan Clan Twin Demons.
The Bearded Man's cultivation had advanced beyond his expectations. Furthermore, the appearance of the Lan Clan's Twin Demons introduced new variables into his previous plans.
"Manhuzi, Qingyi, Qingyangmen."
Extreme Yin, the Lan Clan's Twin Demons, Lady Wen, the Demonic Path.
Wan Tianming, Tian Wuzi, and Mu Tengzi, the righteous path.
Jin Kui's expression remained unchanged, but he was urgently analyzing the situation in his mind.
He made a pact with Qing Sanyang that after the Void Heaven Palace opened this time, they would deploy people on the periphery to assassinate Wan Tianming, then frame the demonic path and provoke a war between the righteous and the demonic.
But Qing Sanyang did not show up. Instead, Manhuzi, Qingyi and his son appeared here.
"What's the real culprit behind Qing Sanyang's actions? Why didn't he notify me beforehand that he'd changed people?"
Could he really be in seclusion trying to break through to the late Nascent Soul stage? Impossible. The late Nascent Soul stage isn't that easy to achieve.
Jin Kui quickly analyzed the situation in his mind.
He has been stuck at the peak of the mid-Nascent Soul stage for hundreds of years. He seems to be very close to the late-Nascent Soul stage, but only he knows how difficult it is to take that step.
"It seems we'll have to send Jin Qing to ask Qing Feng about it in the Spirit Abyss later."
Jin Kui glanced at Qing Feng. Since your father isn't here, he can only ask you, his son.
At this moment, Elder Jia had already replaced Jin Kui and introduced the rules of the Half-Day Void Palace.
These rules have been upheld by successive rulers of the Star Palace, and anyone who breaks them will be subject to the Star Palace's most severe punishment.
"They make it sound noble, but in reality they are secretly manipulating the hidden restrictions in the Void Heaven Palace to increase the difficulty, thereby reducing the number of Core Formation cultivators in both the righteous and demonic paths."
Qingfeng didn't believe a word Xinggong said.
Although they secretly formed an alliance, their situation is similar to that of the Reverse Star Alliance, which represents both the righteous and demonic paths.
If an ally affects them, or if an ally becomes weak, then a "true ally" wouldn't mind betraying them.
In particular, the best-case scenario would be if allies and enemies could wear each other down while one could reap the benefits.
"Jin Kui's target is Wan Tianming, my target is Ji Yin, and the righteous and demonic paths are both the Reverse Star Alliance."
"Trying to assassinate Wan Tianming and frame the demonic path is difficult to execute. We'll see how things go and let Jin Kui be the target."
Qingfeng pondered that his main targets this time were the Nine-Bend Spirit Ginseng, the Void Heaven Cauldron, the Azure Ice Flame, the Silver Moon, as well as the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Milk and the Soul-Nourishing Wood.
To get these things, we need to make this place chaotic so it'll be easier to operate.
"Those who lack the strength should stop here. Otherwise, they might lose their lives in vain before even passing the first hurdle."
Furthermore, don't assume that the celestial palace will come to your aid if you encounter danger. Once inside, your life or death is in your own hands.
Even if they perish and are annihilated, we, as their oversight, won't even blink. Do you understand?
At this point, Elder Jia finally finished explaining the rules.
Afterwards, the Core Formation cultivators in the hall began to discuss the matter telepathically.
Jin Qing, who was sitting in the corner, suddenly froze. The voice transmission from Ancestor Jin Kui had already entered his ears.
"In the Spirit Abyss, I will arrange for you to meet the young master of the Qingyang Sect. Go and ask him where the Three Yang Old Demon is now. Remember that?"
"Yes! Yes, I remember, Ancestor."
Jin Qing hurriedly responded to the ancestor's instructions.
"Yes, the first level, the Spirit Abyss, is full of vengeful spirits and ghosts. Once you enter, circulate the 'Golden Sun Blazing Sun' technique passed down to you by your family, and you will be able to pass the level."
Jin Kui directly told Jin Qing the method to pass through the checkpoint.
"Yes, thank you for your guidance, Elder Ancestor."
Jin Qing was thrilled; he had received a reward for the first time he had done something for the ancestor.
"Is there anything else you need?"
Jin Kui asked again.
"Uh, Ancestor, could you help me by sending my friend Lao Hu and Han Li, who is being held captive by Ji Yin's men, to my side?"
Jin Qing tried asking.
He wanted to help his friend.
"……All right."
After a moment of silence, Jin Kui agreed.
For him, secretly manipulating the Spirit Abyss in the first level wouldn't be considered causing trouble.
The real trouble comes from the Nascent Soul stage monsters who want to enter the inner hall of the Void Heaven Palace and retrieve the Void Heaven Cauldron.
While Jin Kui was giving Jin Qing instructions, Han Li, who had been captured by Ji Yin, was winking at Qing Feng, hoping his older brother could save his life.
Qingfeng naturally saw that Han Li was asking him for help, so he slowly opened his folding fan.
"Where there's a will, there's a way; when the boat reaches the bridge, it will straighten itself."
On his fan was written a line of poetry.
Han Li breathed a sigh of relief after seeing his elder brother's hint.
"My brother is telling me to observe the situation and wait for an opportunity."
Han Li pondered the meaning of the poem for a moment.
Fortunately, after following Master Mo, he began to read and write; otherwise, it would have been terrible if he hadn't been able to understand the meaning of his elder brother's poems.
"Good apprentice, are you itchy?"
An extremely sinister old face suddenly loomed close to Han Li's eyes, and a chilling voice nearly startled Han Li.
"Hehe, don't be afraid. I have no ill intentions towards you. You are the successor of my junior brother, that is, my disciple of the Extreme Yin Sect."
Master, I will protect you.
"Thank you... thank you, Master."
Han Li wanted to deny that he was the successor of Ji Xuan, but with the Lan Clan's female demon still there, he had no choice but to continue the charade.
Meanwhile, Xuan Gu, hidden inside the Qingfeng Box, was glaring at Ji Yin with gritted teeth.
"My dear disciple! I've missed you so much!"
