Chapter 1700 - Speedy Catch (1)
Within the three hundred plus bubbles, within one of the bubbles, a dark red flame that was the size of an egg lit up from within the coc.o.o.n formed by the immortal sky"s spiritual energy.
Everyone was very clear about what this meant.
The Grand Demonic Saint Sect"s Tian Gong called Guo Yu had already ignited an Immortal Seal. More and more Tian Gong would ignite more and more seals.
As expected, before long, the other bubbles also lit up.
Other than the most common fires, many of them were blue, green, yellow, and even white. It was obvious that in the remaining three hundred or so workers, many of the fire attribute Five Elements were not fire, but water, wood, earth, and metal.
Unknowingly, within the compet.i.tion for the Celestial Mirror s.p.a.ce, there were already specks of multicolored light flickering about. The flames inlaid on the giant coc.o.o.n had already surpa.s.sed ten of them.
However, after succeeding consecutively, failure also came along with it.
Previous Chapter Next Chapter "Boom!"
As if there was a huge explosion, the white coc.o.o.n suddenly burst apart, and the red light that was embedded in the coc.o.o.n also disappeared. A figure immediately appeared, his face full of shock and confusion, as if he had not recovered from the change.
"Pah!"
And then there was the sound of bubbles breaking.
The bubble immediately burst, transforming into threads of white-colored odor that melted into the s.p.a.ce of the Celestial Mirror. The figure inside also disappeared, obviously teleported out of the compet.i.tion. For the Celestial Artist, who had been sent out, his journey in the Artifact Arena had come to an abrupt end.
"What a pity, if I"m not wrong, he has already ignited nine Immortal Seals."
"That guy seems to be Zhao Junda from the Jade Capital School of the Great Firmament Sword. It"s indeed a pity. He"s too impatient."
"Haha, good!" Good! I have long disliked this guy! "
"..."
A cry of surprise sounded out from the void pa.s.sageway. Soon after, sounds of pity or schadenfreude resounded out in succession.
As one of the first prodigies to have such a situation happen, there was no doubt that Zhao Junda"s ranking would be at the bottom of the group. If Tian Gong were to accidentally ignite the Diamond Immortal Stone again, even if he ignited a lower number of seals, his ranking would still be higher than Zhao Junda.
Unless both of them detonated the Diamond Immortal Stones at the same time, they would only decide the rank by igniting the number of seals.
If the Diamond Immortal Stone didn"t shatter, even if Zhao Junda wasn"t able to ignite a single immortal seal in the next hour or so, he wouldn"t be at the bottom of this round.
This is indeed very regrettable.
On the other hand, Cao w.a.n.g and the other Great Demonic Saint Sect cultivators who were watching the compet.i.tion from the void corridor were constantly sighing with a heartbroken expression. The sounds of schadenfreude that echoed from time to time made them even more dejected. Fortunately, Zhao Junda wasn"t the only one who left the venue in such a manner.
Not long after, another bubble burst and the cultivators inside were immediately transported out. Before the bubble burst, there were a total of five b.a.l.l.s of fire flickering on top of the coc.o.o.n.
The number of seals ignited by this cultivator was far less than that of Zhao Junda, but fortunately, he failed later than him. Thus, his ranking was naturally higher than Zhao Junda"s.
Of course, someone like him was only an exception.
After that, Tian Gong, who had failed, ignited more and more celestial seals. Unknowingly, there were less than 200 bubbles remaining in the Immortal Mirror s.p.a.ce arena. It was only about half the time limit of two hours had pa.s.sed, and the number of prodigies who had completed the compet.i.tion had reached over a hundred.
"Right now, the ones that have the most celestial seals ignited are the King of Heaven, Lin Siwei. There are a total of 36 celestial seals!"
"Arrogance isn"t bad either. To be able to reach thirty-two, the chances of him catching up to Heavenly King Lin is extremely high."
"Where"s Tang Huan? Which was the person who ranked first on the Seven Wheel Artifact Ranking? Sigh, I came too late. I didn"t see the seven exciting rounds of the compet.i.tion, what a pity, what a pity … "Yi, what"s going on with that bubble? It didn"t even light up a single immortal seal, is it that bad?"
"The "poor" Tian Gong is Tang Huan!"
"..."
The atmosphere in the sky above the Saint Dao City was filled with endless discussions.
In the s.p.a.ce within the Celestial Mirror, the s.p.a.ce above the path became much quieter. However, every time a bubble burst, it would cause a commotion.
The more time pa.s.sed, the more nervous the cultivators became. Firstly, they were worried that the fellow cultivator would fail due to the Diamond Immortal Stone explosion, and secondly, they were worried that the opponent of the fellow cultivator would overtake him. This was especially true for the cultivators of the sects who were ahead of the heaven"s work.
Numerous gazes swept across the spa.r.s.e arena. Many cultivators were paying attention to their own heaven"s work while paying attention to the results of other heaven"s work.
From the start of the round, almost an hour had pa.s.sed, and the last person to be paid attention to was none other than Tang Huan.
Until now, Tang Huan had not ignited a single Divine Seal.
However, no one felt that it was because Tang Huan was too weak. In the past seven rounds of compet.i.tions, Tang Huan"s specialty was to be the last to arrive. He basically would only make her move after comprehending the situation thoroughly, and then, with unstoppable force, she would surpa.s.s her opponent and obtain the best results.
The calmer Tang Huan was now, the more astonis.h.i.+ng the storm that would erupt later.
Everyone could not help but have such a thought. In fact, during the seven round compet.i.tion, Tang Huan had left a very deep impression on everyone.
Three quarters of an hour quietly pa.s.sed by.
"There"s almost a quarter of an hour left."
Up in the void corridor, Hou Jun took a deep breath, his fists clenching involuntarily.
Currently, Lin Si Wei was still in the lead. Moreover, she had pulled apart the gap between her and a high-grade heaven"s work like Du Yuan. She had ignited 65 seals. If this trend continued, she would end up with an estimated 70 seals. Even if past compet.i.tions were included, this result would be enough to be placed in the top five.
However, Dao Jun was still very worried. The reason it was like this was naturally because of Tang Huan.
"66 pills now..."
As his gaze swept past the round bubble Lin Siwei was in, the sixty-six lumps of green flames reflected in his pupils, caused a smile to involuntarily float up Hou Jun"s face. But at this moment, an incomparably noisy musical note suddenly drilled into his ears, "It"s moving, it"s moving, quickly look, everyone, quickly look …"
Dao Jun"s heart thumped as he reflexively looked over.
In the next moment, Hou Jun"s expression suddenly changed. His body stiffened as his heartstrings uncontrollably tensed up. Nervousness involuntarily emerged from the depths of his eyes, and within the bubble that had always been devoid of flames, a ball of jade-blue fire suddenly appeared at the white coc.o.o.n.
