These disciples of the sects and family clans were all born with silver spoons in their mouths. All of them had abundant resources to use.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.They had all kinds of powerful cultivation techniques and martial techniques to choose from.
They even had Ten Thousand Year Realm experts to give them guidance, helping them avoid many unnecessary detours.
Rogue cultivators were different. Not to mention the guidance of Ten Thousand Year Realm experts, they didn"t even have a good cultivation technique and martial techniques.
They had to fight for every bit of resources themselves, and they wouldn"t even know when they deviated from the proper cultivation path. By the time they realized, it would already be too late.
This was also why rogue cultivators were generally weaker than the disciples of large families and clans.
It was already a very good result that a dozen of rogue cultivators had managed to obtain the Demonic Beast essence blood.
Moreover, of this handful of rogue cultivators, five of them were the guards that had come with Bei Feng!
There were around 100 people from the 12 main factions, and over a third of them had obtained the rewards. Only around 10 had died.
As for the rest, even if they hadn"t received any rewards, they had still pa.s.sed this round of test.
As for those 10 that had died, it was not because they were weak. It was because they were too arrogant, underestimating their opponent and dying after being caught off guard!
In contrast, there were over 1,000 rogue cultivators, but hundreds had died. As for the percentage that"d obtained the rewards, the disparity was too much.
The shockingly dense Ling Qi seemed to be endless, allowing everyone to absorb it as they pleased.
One could truly say that cultivating here for a single day was comparable to decades of hard cultivation outside.
The reason everyone had managed to break through so quickly was because of the high quality of the Ling Qi.
If a person ate too much medicine, their body would gradually grew immune to the said medicine.
But after absorbing the ordinary and impure Ling Qi for so many years, it was naturally easy to break through their bottlenecks after absorbing this high-quality Ling Qi.
No one wasted any time, and they all concentrated fully on absorbing the Ling Qi. After all, no one could tell whether this amazing Ling Qi would still be around in the next moment.
"I feel that if I keep on cultivating like this, I will be able to reach the peak of the Thousand Year King realm in just 10 years!"
"This place is a paradise!"
"This is where my rise begins!"
Everyone seemed as if they"d been injected with chicken blood, sucking the Ling Qi in madly without regards for their own foundations.
What a dense high-quality Ling Qi! My cultivation has already reached the peak of the Hundred Year realm. If I continue breaking through, I"ll be in the Thousand Year King realm.
Lu Wei had concentrated all his efforts on refining the Demonic Beast essence blood, but he could still clearly feel the changes in the outside world. Huge amounts of shockingly high-quality Ling Qi were flowing into his body as he refined the Demonic Beast essence blood, and he could feel that he was infinitely close to the Thousand Year King realm!
As long as he wanted to, he could revolve his cultivation technique and smash through that barrier, becoming a Thousand Year King!
His lifespan would also increase tremendously if he became a Thousand Year King.
Why was that realm termed Thousand Year King realm? Because the lifespan of cultivators who reached that realm would reach a thousand years!
Although it only seemed like a small increase of 200 years from the peak of the Hundred Year realm to 1,000 years for the First level of the Thousand Year King realm, it was not really counted like this.
A cultivator would immediately have his lifespan extended to 2,000 years upon reaching the Second level of the Thousand Year King realm!
Theoretically, a peak Thousand Year King realm expert could live for 9,999 years.
This was an incredibly tempting thought. Even a Second or Third level Thousand Year King realm expert would be able to live many times longer than a peak Hundred Year realm cultivator.
There was also no need to mention that one"s ability would increase greatly after breaking through, and they would be able to enjoy more benefits in society.
It"s breakthrough, then! I"ll break through now!
"After you break through to the Thousand Year King realm, your lifespan will be greatly increased, and your strength will rise tremendously. At that point, you will not need to worry about anything anymore." A devilish voice rang out beside Lu Wei"s ears, seducing him to break through to the Thousand Year King realm immediately. This voice was soft and subtle, sounding like a hidden desire from the depths of his body.
Wait!
Lu Wei acted subconsciously according to the will of this voice, but right as he was about to start breaking through, he jolted, and sweat poured down his face.
How could he have forgotten…
There were indeed countless benefits to breaking through, but didn"t the nine-headed eagle say that Thousand Year Kings would cause the imbalance of this place?
That peak level Thousand Year King realm expert had also used his life to remind everyone about the price of entering this s.p.a.ce as a Thousand Year King.
It was already stated earlier that this ruin did not permit the presence of any cultivator above the Hundred Year realm.
Even though Lu Wei didn"t know if the same was true for people who broke through to the Thousand Year King realm inside the ruin, he did not dare to take this risk.
At that moment, he no longer dared to dwell on the thought of breaking through, and instead directed all the Ling Qi to strengthen his body, foundations, and blood Qi.
Since he couldn"t break through, he might as well take the opportunity to establish a stronger foundation. Then, when he broke through to the Thousand Year King realm, his blood Qi fusion would be higher.
"HAHA! The bottleneck that"d blocked me for 10 years is finally loosened!" a cultivator roared with intense joy. Originally, he"d intended to slowly grind away at the bottleneck with time, or if he failed, he would remain at the peak of the Hundred Year realm for the rest of his life.
But who would have thought that this high-quality Ling Qi would be so beneficial for him!
Only so much time had pa.s.sed, but he was already able to charge into the Thousand Year King realm now.
"Break for me!"
A strong self-confidence surged in his heart; looking around, he discovered that he was the first one who"d begun to break through. In that moment, he could not help but feel smug.
So what if they"re disciples of large factions? Aren"t they still being suppressed by me now? The first one to begin breaking through was me!
As the saying went, being ahead one step earlier would result in being ahead at every step. Right now, this person was already fantasizing about carrying out a killing spree inside the ruin, and robbing all the fortuitous opportunities from the rest.
The mist formed by the Ling Qi limited the vision on the bridge, and even a Thousand Year King realm expert would not be able to see far.
As soon as the first person began breaking through, tens of auras joined him.
These cultivators were all preparing to break through to the Thousand Year King realm. The moment they succeeded, there would be tens of Thousand Year King realm experts added into this compet.i.tion!
It wasn"t just the rogue cultivators. Even the disciples of the large factions could not resist the temptation, and began to break through.
"We"ll let these people test the path for us first. If nothing happens to them, we can also break through with a peace of mind."
A large number of people was watching and waiting pa.s.sively.
Time pa.s.sed slowly, and huge amounts of Ling Qi surged towards the cultivators who were breaking through.
The scene was extremely grand. After all, the sight of tens of people breaking through to the Thousand Year King realm together was not commonplace. Perhaps only the Martial Alliance, the government, the five great families, and the 13 peak sects had the foundations necessary to replicate such a sight.
"HAHAHA! I"ve broken through! After I come out from this ruin, it will be time for my meteoric rise!" a cultivator roared excitedly with laughter.
He"d never thought that there would actually be a day when he would reach the Thousand Year King realm. Happiness had come too quickly and too suddenly.
"AAAAH! Zhuang Family, when you annihilated my entire family, had you imagined that I would also become a Thousand Year King one day, and that this day would come so quickly?!" Another voice rang out, this time filled with hatred and grief.
A middle-aged man walked out with a sigh, and said, "Indeed. Who would have thought that the you, who"d escaped that day, would actually reach such heights."
"It"s you! You actually came here as well!"
The youth"s eyes were completely red. He hadn"t expected that his enemy would actually have followed him over here, and he actually hadn"t discovered it before.
"It surely doesn"t feel good to be chased like a dog by the Zhuang Family all these years? What"s the point of torturing yourself? Wouldn"t you be free of everything if you died?" the middle-aged man said with a faint smile.
"Your Zhuang Family is still alive, so how can I die!?
"It"s good that you"re here. I"ll use your fresh blood to celebrate my ascension to the Thousand Year King realm!"
A violent aura burst out of the youth"s body, causing the middle-aged man to take a few steps backwards.
"Haha, what a joke. After struggling for over 20 years, you"ve managed to break through to the Thousand Year King realm before the age of 40 years. Your talent can indeed be considered rather good. But, it"s a pity that in the end, it"s all futile!"
The middle-aged man was laughing so hard that tears were hovering in the corners of his eyes. He didn"t seem to have the slightest fear of this Thousand Year King who could kill him with a single slap.
"You still run your mouth when death is before you!?"
The youth furrowed his brows with unease. After running and hiding for so many years, he"d already developed an extremely cautious mindset. The fearless look on this middle-aged man"s face caused him to grow suspicious and wonder what kind of trump cards the latter was holding.
"Whether death is upon me or not is uncertain. The only thing I know is that your death is definitely here! Take a look around you and see for yourself!" The middle-aged man laughed madly as he pointed at something.
The youth"s face turned into one of pure terror as he exclaimed, "Eh?! When did that appear—"
Countless tiny white lines had appeared beside him, easily tearing through his defense, and cutting deeply into his body.
At this time, he suddenly remembered the peak Thousand Year King realm expert who"d run first onto the stone bridge.
"NO! Even if I"m going to die, I will drag you down with me!"
The young man went mad with despair. Even a peak Thousand Year King realm expert was completely helpless against these white threads, much less him!
Knowing that he was unable to avoid death, he was determined to pull at least one Zhuang Family b.a.s.t.a.r.d into the grave with him!
"Did you think that you are the only talented one here? There are so many people here, and so many geniuses from the large factions. Which one them does not have greater talent than you? Are their cultivation techniques inferior to yours? But look at how many people chose to break through.
"They are all waiting for you idiots to test the waters for them! Very clearly, the results are out.
"Brain is a good thing to have. I hope that you will one day have some too. Try to be a little cleverer in your next life."
The middle-aged man laughed mockingly as if he couldn"t see the boisterous blood Qi on the youth"s body.
Clearly, the youth was preparing to self-detonate, killing the Zhuang Family guy with him!
Unfortunately, from the instant that the silvery white threads entered his body, the result was already determined.
"Bang!"
A light sound rang out, and everything returned to its former calm.
Nothing remained of the young man who had been standing there a moment ago.
As for self-detonating and dragging the Zhuang Family guy down with him, he didn"t even have that chance.
"NO!"
"How can this be!?"
"I"m a genius chosen by the heavens! How can I die here?!"
Many cultivators also broke through at the same time.
However, a nightmare awaited them. Every single one of those experts was killed by those silvery white threads as soon as they broke through!
No matter how they tried to resist or flee, nothing worked!
The silvery white thread was unstoppable, and impossible to escape from!
