652 Participating in the Contest
The topic of the Northern Continent also shifted from the Kun Peng’s inheritance to the ancient battlefield.
Lin Mo and Qilin embarked on their journey and arrived at the vast Dragon State on a warship.
It took 15 days, and they had to travel at full speed to the Dragon Pavilion after arriving at Dragon State.
Although the land of Dragon State was vast, there were countless creatures of different races.
The population base was huge, and each force had nearly ten thousand juniors.
There were close to a hundred outstanding ones.
The total number of juniors in the 3,000 states of the Northern Continent would be terrifying.
If all of them were to come, they would probably occupy the entire Dragon State...
However, not all of those juniors would come. Most of them had been eliminated from their respective forces.
Other than a few extremely powerful top forces that could send people into the ancient battlefield directly, the rest of them had to go through a series of screenings.
Even if they obtained a spot from a quasi-Saint, they would still have to go through a selection process before entering the ancient battlefield.
It could not be helped. The opportunities on the ancient battlefield were too great. Even some of the older generation severed their cultivation bases in an attempt to enter.
“This is too crazy. So many people had to die for a spot...”
Lin Mo mumbled. It happened once every 3,000 years, and every time the battlefield opened, blood would flow like a river.
Countless young talents would die because of this and become the stepping stones for others.
In the distance, an old woman walked over with a smile and said, “You’re so scared, young man. As the future of the Northern Continent, you should be brave. How can you be so timid in the face of battle? ”
“You overstated it, senior. We’re only rogue cultivators, so we don’t deserve to be a part of the future.” Lin Mo shook his head. He was slightly shocked by the old lady’s strength.
“There’s no hiding. You guys can leave. Without the Dragon Invitation, you’ll have to win in the arena.”
The old lady considerately pointed out a path for Lin Mo and Qilin to take part in the duel at the mayor’s mansion.
After thanking her, Lin Mo and Qilin left.
Along the way, they were stopped many times, and many powerhouses came up to talk to them.
Every time, those people would use their powerful soul power to scan and investigate their backgrounds.
“The situation doesn’t seem right...”
Even Qilin felt it too. It was too frequent. What was the purpose of those people?
It was only when they arrived at the mayor’s mansion that they finally understood.
There was another round of questioning at the entrance, and they were told the reason.
The Dragon Pavilion believed that Qilin came from the ancient battlefield and should be left to them to deal with.
As for Lin Mo, he had caught the attention of most of the Northern Continent’s forces. Their target was the Kun Peng’s supreme inheritance.
“These are your battle passes.”
The mayor’s mansion had a special person to receive them. This was a small city. It was not very big, and there was only one spot.
The so-called battle made Lin Mo shake his head. It was too cruel.
Tens of thousands of people would compete in a small world, and only one winner would be qualified to receive the Dragon Invitation.
“By the way, what about our jade seals?”
Lin Mo then recalled that the jade seal was equivalent to an immunity pass and that they could not miss it.
Even so, his and Qilin’s identities were too sensitive at the moment. Would the Dragon Pavilion agree to give them the jade seals?
“Don’t worry. To activate the ancient battlefield, we need 3,000 young powerhouses with jade seals. We’re strong enough and will definitely be on the list.”
Qilin was aware of this. After all, she was from the inner regions of the ancient battlefield.
The Dragon Pavilion had a great reputation. They had been in control of the ancient battlefield for many years and had never shown any unfairness.
Even if they wanted to capture Qilin, they would not tamper with the Hidden Dragon Rank and the jade seals. Otherwise, their reputation would be ruined, and all their years of hard work would go to waste...
“Time is precious. You have one day. The jade seal will appear in the center in the last two hours. Whoever can walk out with it will win.”
The mayor of this city had arrived. He was a powerful quasi-Saint.
After the rules were announced, tens of thousands of figures turned into streams of light and were sucked into the small world.
If one person was selected within a day, this small world was destined to be filled with blood...
Fortunately, this mayor was not too cold and had set up formations in the small world.
If people died inside, they would not be completely annihilated. Instead, they would be teleported away, and at most, they would be seriously injured.
“It is brutal but not cruel. It’s just that there’s not much time…”
After entering the small world, Lin Mo could feel the rich spiritual Qi. This place was even more suitable for cultivation than the outside.
“This place is also a treasure land. I wonder if there’s any divine medicine being nurtured here..”. Qilin said.
The moment Lin Mo and Qilin landed, they sensed the aura around them.
However, this fairyland-like scene was destroyed in the next moment and was replaced by blood.
Miserable cries were continuously heard as the ground shook. Vines shot out one after another, each with a barbed tip and emitting a foul stench.
“We entered a dangerous place.”
Lin Mo frowned. With the appearance of these vines, the Yin Qi in the area became more intense, and even the air was filled with poisonous mist.
“What’s a plant-type demonic beast?” Qilin frowned. The beautiful scenery was gone just like that.
“Earthly Demonic Vines are poisonous and like to devour the blood and Qi of living beings. Let’s retreat first.”
Lin Mo recognized the vines at a glance and knew that they were not to be trifled with. He retreated with Qilin.
“Boom!”
There was also a battle outside the Earthly Demonic Vines, but it was only the participants fighting.
Martial arts collided, and fragments of magic tools flew all over the sky. Some people were immediately torn apart, while others were invincible and killed in all directions.
“Ah!”
Someone let out a blood-curdling screech. A genius who was originally very brave was ambushed and killed in the next moment.
The battle had only just begun, but the ground was painted red with blood.
More and more people gathered. The scale of this battle was comparable to that of a war. The only difference was that this was a chaotic battle.
Everyone nearby was an enemy. In order to protect themselves and win, people attacked the people around them.
There were no allies here, and there was only one spot. The survival of the fittest was the cruelest rule of survival.
“Bang!”
Lin Mo struck out with his palm and sent a few people who wanted to sneak attacks on him flying. The terrifying force shattered their arms as they barely managed to block the power of Lin Mo’s palm.
The surrounding people were shocked by this scene.
To be able to push back so many people with just a light palm, how much power was needed?
On the other side, the Earthly Demonic Vines had also chased after them. Many people had their chests pierced, and their blood essence was drained.
“Don’t linger in the battle and preserve your strength...”
Lin Mo frowned. Luck played a huge part in this selection. Even he and Qilin could not guarantee that they could eliminate everyone.
Especially since there were fearsome creatures like the Earthly Demonic Vines here, they could not let their guard down.
“Since the Earthly Demonic Vines chased us out, are there any treasures in their lair?” Qilin suddenly asked.
Although this small world was dangerous, it should not be a problem for her to protect herself with Lin Mo’s help.
Hearing this, Lin Mo nodded. It was not a bad choice.
“You can go and take a look. Just be careful.”
The two of them turned back. With the World-changing Technique, their auras gradually changed into that of the Earthly Demonic Vines and blended in with the place.
Without any obstacles, the two of them followed a cave and arrived at the Earthly Demonic Vines’ nest...
