Chapter 706: The Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The five totem elite warriors looked at each other and they all felt that this situation had seemed to surpa.s.s what they had predicted beforehand.
The totem elite warrior of the Dark Mysterious Clan touched his nose and said to Snow Cicada Chief, “Snow Cicada Chief, this is the Karakorum Immortal Clan, what do you say we do? If Qin Wushuang has truly died, would we reset the champions.h.i.+p or let this position remain empty?”
“Empty?” Snow Cicada Chief shook her head. “It cannot remain empty. If it remains empty, who would get the two Supreme Dao Fruits? All five of us totem powerhouses have given a Supreme Dao Fruit and it would not be fair to give it to anyone else. We can only reward these partic.i.p.ating candidates. In the worst case, we can go along the ranks. The original second place winner would be the champion and so on. The sixth place would enter the top five ranking and the eleventh would get b.u.mped up to the top ten.”
“Ha ha, that fifth place person would get an unexpected surprise. The fifth place person would rise to fourth place and win a Supreme Dao Fruit out of nowhere. It would definitely be an unexpected surprise!”
“Who is the original fifth place winner?”
“It’s Lu Qingchuan from the Flying Rainbow Daoist Sect, right?”
Snow Cicada said, “Initially, Lu Qingchuan also had the strength to enter the top four. Only, ha ha, she was unlucky… It’s hard to predict the things in this world. That Qin Wushuang had exhibited great power and disqualified Zhu Yunyan and Lu Qingchuan one after the other. Unexpectedly, at this last pa.s.s, he lacked this same luck…”
Xuan Yuan Ba of the Xuan Yuan Clan had not been speaking. Now, he suddenly opened his eyes which contained strange lights within his tiger like eyes. With a low voice, he said, “Everyone, we are only making a.s.sumptions. We are not sure whether Qin Wushuang has truly died or not. Now, isn’t it too early to discuss the distribution of the rewards?”
“Ah, Brother Ba, we know you are not feeling well. However, if he could not even protect the transportation jade plate and the divine beast trule shattered it, then we can only wait for the time limit and see if he comes out of the island when the defenses are let up. Within two months, would Qin Wushuang be able to survive after being targeted by the divine beast?”
Xuan Yuan Ba did not pay attention to these discouraging words. Instead, he glared at Ling Tianzhi and said lightly, “Why didn’t you speak of this earlier? Why say this now?”
Before the strong aura of the totem elite warriors, Ling Tianzhi instantly felt a burst of gigantic pressure through his entire body. His breathing had become urgent instantly.
The totem elite warrior of the Dark Mysterious Clan said lightly, “Brother Ba, mind your status.”
Xuan Yuan Ba glared at the elite warrior of the Dark Mysterious Clan and responded, “I’m only asking a simple question.”
Ling Tianzhi said timidly, “I… I was in a panic at that time and I didn’t see too clearly. Therefore I did not dare to speak any nonsense. After having waited for so many days, when I saw that Qin Wushuang has not come out, after some careful thinking I thought that something might have happened. Therefore I told my father. Then…”
“Such excuses,” Xuan Yuan Ba sneered inwardly. “Whatever the panic, this was all nonsense. Most likely his true starting point was hoping that Qin Wushuang was destroyed by the divine beast.”
After all, if he had said this matter as soon as he got out, most likely the totem elite warriors would enter and interfere. In that case, with Qin Wushuang not dead, it would be hard to say who would win the champions.h.i.+p.
“That Jiang Kui had come out with my son, he should have also seen this,” his father, Ling Shen, added.
Snow Cicada and the other few totem elite warriors exchanged a glance. “Brother Ao, you are in charge of the One Horned Mountain Dragon, you should summon them.”
This warrior mentioned by her was in fact, the elite warrior of the totem powerhouse, the Original Dragon Clan of the Endless Eastern Sea. The Original Dragon also had the surname Ao. And only the Original Dragon Clan was qualified to have the Ao surname.
The surname Ao was also a unique surname belonging to the totem clan of the Endless Eastern Sea.
The totem elite warrior Ao performed a divine skill and snapped a communication voice talisman. In a moment, the leader of the One Horned Mountain Dragon walked over with Jiang Kui.
“Jiang Kui, Ling Tianzhi said when you guys had come out, you saw Qin Wushuang’s transportation jade plate destroyed by the beast. Did such a thing happen?” the Ao elite warrior asked.
Jiang Kui stammered, “I was somewhat nervous and could not see clearly at that moment. I only saw Qin Wushuang tangled with that divine beast and he seemed somewhat in a struggle. He did not have the room to resist. Since Ling Tianzhi said he saw this, I believe it is very possible to have happened. I could not see clearly for my view was not good.”
This Jiang Kui was more diplomatic than Ling Tianzhi for he had s.h.i.+fted the responsibility completely. Since Ling Tianzhi already told the truth, it did not matter if I add one more word. For this evil person, Ling Tianzhi should be the one to do it.
Ling Tianzhi said with discontent, “Jiang Kui, at that moment you were in a better position than me, you should have seen it.”
Jiang Kui’s complexion sank. “The power of that divine beast was to powerful, I could barely open my eyes, how could I have seen clearly?”
Denied directly, another denial.
Xuan Yuan Ba said with a cold sneer, “Now the younger generation of the Tian Xuan Land has become so irresponsible! It seems the generations of the Tian Xuan Land are getting less and less righteous.”
Snow Cicada gave a long sigh. “Brother Ba, you should not be firing these words. That Qin Wushuang is one from your Xuan Yuan Mound, tell us what to do.”
Xuan Yuan Ba said lightly, “Would my words really count?”
“You say, you say.” The other four totem elite warrior were also happy to give him favor at this moment. “Anyways, your Qin Wushuang has already died. We shall let you off easy.”
Xuan Yuan Ba nodded. “In this case, let’s wait for the time limit. If Qin Wushuang still has not come out, then I will enter and see.”
“Hold on, Brother Ba, let’s figure this out beforehand. If he has not died, when you go in and rescue him, how can we call this the champions.h.i.+p?”
“Of course it’s still Qin Wushuang winning the champions.h.i.+p, he held on much longer than these two, has he not?” Xuan Yuan Ba did not move an inch.
The elite warrior of the Dark Mysterious Clan shook his head. “That’s not right. It’s true that he has held on the longest, yet if he can not come out himself, what’s the point of holding out longer?”
The Ao totem elite warrior of the Endless Eastern Sea also supported him. “That’s right, unless he comes out himself, how can we give him the t.i.tle of victor? Would everyone accept this?”
Ling Tianzhi and Jiang Kui had belonged to the Endless Extreme North Snow Zone and the Endless Eastern Sea. Therefore, the totem elite warrior of the Dark Mysterious Clan and the Original Dragon had used more effort.
After all, if Qin Wushuang could not win the champions.h.i.+p, most likely the position of victor would fall into the powerhouses ruled by them. At this crucial point, they were all selfish.
Xuan Yuan Ba was annoyed and looked at Snow Cicada Chief. Snow Cicada shook her head, “Brother Ba, although I do admire that Qin Wushuang, I must say that he could not even protect his transportation jade plate. If he could not come out himself, we will not convince the crowd of giving him this champions.h.i.+p.”
Three of the five totem elite warriors had stated their viewpoint. Even if Xuan Yuan Ba had wanted to say anything, he could not as he said angrily, “Then I don’t care. If Qin Wushuang is alive, at least we must keep one of the top three spots. After all, only these three have entered the tenth island. Even if he has given up at that time, he was already locked into the top three.”
“I do not object this, ha ha, I do not object if we give him number three.” The elite warrior of the Dark Mysterious Clan laughed.
The Ao totem elite warrior also chuckled. “For third place, I also do not oppose.”
As long as it does not invade their benefits, of course they would not object.
Xuan Yuan Ba shook his head helplessly. The five totem powerhouses encouraged each other and would all share evil intentions. With such openings for them to gain the benefit, it would be strange if these warriors didn’t take advantage of it.
It would be Qin Wushuang’s fault. If he couldn’t protect the transportation jade plate and come out even one second later than them, he would still be victor!
Getting the ordeal champions.h.i.+p would not benefit the Xuan Yuan Clan at all. Yet, at least he would represent the peak of the Tian Xuan Land and represent the pride of the Xuan Yuan Mound.
Therefore, Xuan Yuan Ba did not hold much affection for the Qin Clan. Yet on this matter, he had rather hoped Qin Wushuang was able to win in the end.
However, unknown to them, just when they were mingling and scheming, Qin Wushuang had done a lot at the tenth island in this half a month.
“Whoos.h.!.+”
Qin Wushuang opened his eyes and the entire world seemed to have become clearer. A sense of renewal made Qin Wushuang feel that the color of the entire heaven and earth had become richer.
For the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage, finally, he had pa.s.sed this obstacle!
Finally, he had entered the legendary Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage!
The Void Martial Stage had become history now! Traces of warmth rippled inside Qin Wushuang’s heart. He thought about how each step on the path of martial arts had been so arduous, yet he was also very fortunate. He knew that with his age, the majority of martial artists were still struggling at the spiritual martial force.
Even among the secular powerhouses, those fellow River County colleagues that had partic.i.p.ated in the martial arts student exam together with him would dwell at the Genuine Martial Force for their entire lifetime.
They could not even enter the Upper Sky Realm!
Yet at this age, Qin Wushuang had entered the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage.
What was the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage? It was the path towards the Supreme Dao Stage! The Exquisite Mysterious Boundary was a bridge, the path one must pa.s.s to go to the Supreme Dao Stage.
Once he had stepped onto this bridge, it would be worth looking forward to the Supreme Dao Stage. If he could not even step onto this bridge, then it would be meaningless to prying into the supreme Supreme Dao Stage.
Followed by the breakthrough, the divine beast floated in like a burst of wind and roared with laughter. “Young man, you are indeed on time. Ha ha, very nice, very nice. It seems that for the heavenly laws of the unseen world is indeed, reasonable. As you could acquire the Graceful Spiritual Bow, indeed you are fortunate. Excellent!”
Qin Wushuang said leisurely, “Senior divine beast, then can I take those Shooting Sun Arrows now?”
“Of course, but you must also be prepared. The defenses surrounding them were set up by a Supreme Dao elite warrior. With your current strength, you will still be influenced more or less.”
The divine beast looked around with a grinning face. “Tsk tsk, although I am like a prisoner that has lived in this place for a few thousand years, I still feel somewhat reluctant to leave. Ha ha ha!”
Qin Wushuang narrowed his eyes into a line and looked at the Shooting Sun Arrows on the wall with a dazed look. He moved forward and s.n.a.t.c.hed with his palm, but bursts of power kept s.n.a.t.c.hing him towards the wall.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
…
Nine violent booming sounds had emerged continuously. Burst after burst of golden lights kept shooting out. Suddenly, the lights shot in all directions inside the cave. If Qin Wushuang had not had the protection of the Supreme Dao s.h.i.+eld, certainly he would have suffered severe injuries by getting hit by the golden lights. Even in this case, he still felt as if he was deep inside a boundless ocean, hit by endless waves unable to hold himself together.
Finally, the golden lights gradually dimmed. The nine Shooting Sun Arrows were floating before Qin Wushuang. Like a traveling son returning home, the arrows yearned to be reunited with the bow.
The Graceful Spiritual Bow and Shooting Sun Arrows had finally reunited!
