238 Immortal Opportunity Platform
The remaining four countries more or less had some kind of specialization. For example, the Sword Nation, which was prosperous in the forging industry, roughly corresponded to the metal attribute. The Medicine Nation, which was prosperous in the alchemy path, corresponded to the wood attribute.
Only the remaining Sand Country and Li Country had little to do with their attributes.
The non-human Demon Nation would not pay attention to anything. The Demon Nation was divided into races, which was why they called themselves the Demon Nation to outsiders.
“In the mystic realm, we must not be targeted by the cultivators of the Thunder Kingdom. They are very effective against us.”
Jiang Sha reminded them that the lightning element was their nemesis. Even if their cultivation levels were the same, they would still suffer greatly.
“Moo!”
A low moo attracted Song Shi’s attention. On the ground on the left, a rhinoceros that was like a mountain stood up, causing the ground to shake.
“That was the Black-feathered Thunderhawk of the Lei Kingdom. This is the Spiritual Rhinoceros of the Water Kingdom.”
Chen Yiling continued his introduction. “That’s Wind Nation’s Qing Luan.”
Song Shi also observed a green spirit bird. The latter’s posture was elegant, agile, and elegant. Its temperament was completely different from other spirit beasts.
He clucked his tongue in wonder, “It’s beautiful. I can hardly bear to eat it.”
Lu Youyou, who was sealed, rolled her eyes when she heard that. She complained in her heart, but unfortunately, she could not say it.
“That should be the Sword Nation. Such a huge sword.”
Song Shi was quickly attracted by a thousand-foot-long sword. Just by looking at it from afar, the sword was about to split the world apart.
There were seven stars on the Sword that attracted the light in the sky and were bedazzling.
“This is the Seven Stars Spirit Sword, the Numinous treasure with the strongest offensive power on the continent.”
Chen Yiling revealed a look of yearning, “The Sword Nation is a holy land for sword cultivators, and this Seven Star Sword is a treasure that all sword cultivators dream of.”
Next, Song Shi got to know the Heavenly Wood of the Alchemy Kingdom. This spiritual wood grew from the mountains. It was a thousand meters tall and the largest.
Meanwhile, the Sand Country’s national guardian spirit beast was a silver pangolin. It was curled up into a ball, and its silver light was brilliant. It looked like it was sleeping.
On the Demon Nation’s side, no one deliberately revealed anything. They did not need to attract human geniuses, nor would they purposely attract humans.
“The king of Great Qian has broken through to the Soul Transformation realm!”
“Impressive. Initially, I thought that Great Qian would fall apart due to internal strife. Now that Emperor Qian has broken through, he should be able to turn the tide.”
“Those who rebel are unlucky. Now that Emperor Qian has revealed his strength in a high-profile manner, it means that he won’t be polite to them anymore.”
…
The kings of the nine countries revealed their strength, and Emperor Qian used his stronger strength to snatch the limelight.
Experts from various countries looked over with different expressions.
“Lord of the Qian Nation, I didn’t expect you to go first.”
The King of Sword Nation said, “Unfortunately, your Great Qian no longer has any true Numinous treasures. It’s as difficult as ascending to the heavens to go to the Upper Realm.”
“A true expert doesn’t need to rely on external objects to go to the Upper Realm himself.”
Emperor Qian had a confident expression.
“Hehe, Emperor Qian is so confident. I hope he can still say this when he tries to ascend.”
The Lord of the Thunder Kingdom sneered.
“Everyone, take out the Langya Token and summon the Immortal opportunity platform!”
The Lord of the Water Nation sat lazily on the Spirit Rhinoceros’s head, preventing the two from bickering.
“I agree.”
The Wind Nation’s ruler spoke, not wanting the Qian Empire’s ruler to continue stealing the limelight.
“Then let’s begin.”
The nine kings each took out a pure white jade token. There were mysterious runes engraved on it, and they were connected to each other.
After they injected their power, the token emitted a dazzling light and shot out a thick pillar of light. After gathering, they all landed in the same spot in the Void.
RUMBLE!
Space fluctuated violently, forming circles of ripples. Pure white light spread out, and it was as if a huge creature had appeared from the water.
“After a hundred years, I finally can see the Immortal opportunity platform again.”
Jiang Sha sighed as he looked at Luo Chi and Lu Youyou: “Seize this opportunity, if you can obtain the true Immortal opportunity, there will be many chances to make up for what we are facing now.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge white jade stone platform appeared. It was a thousand meters tall. Around the stone platform were stone steps that extended down from midair and connected to the ground.
The stone platform on the steps was engraved with mysterious runes that contained a special aura. Suddenly, the space on the stone platform squirmed, forming a huge vortex. On the vortex, four silver ancient words condensed.
Langya Mystic Realm.
Light pulsed in the vortex, as if another space was slowly appearing on the surface of the water.
There were pavilions, pavilions, immortal palaces and spirit halls inside the Langya Mystic Realm.
Only Foundation Establishment and Golden Core cultivators were allowed to enter this mystic realm. Furthermore, they had to pass through the stairs.
However, not everyone could go to the Immortal opportunity platform. They had to be one in a thousand geniuses.
This restriction was set up by Langya Mystic Realm mainly to choose a successor. Unfortunately, no one had obtained the core inheritance since ancient times.
“The Immortal opportunity platform has been opened. Anyone who feels that they are qualified can try climbing it. Remember, you have to climb up step by step.”
Emperor Qian turned around and spoke to the forces in his country.
The other kings also said to the people behind them. Then, young people flew out one after another.
Song Shi realized that demons had also flown out from the Demon Nation’s side. However, they had all transformed into human forms and did not maintain their demon bodies.
Seeing his confusion, Chen Yiling explained patiently, “The Langya Mystic Realm was created by a mighty figure of the human race. It only recognizes human forms. If the demons want to obtain opportunities, they have to follow the rules.”
When Song Shi heard this, he asked curiously, “Do you think a demon who turns into a human is considered a human or a demon?”
“Demons, right? They’re just changing their forms. They have form but no soul.”
Chen Yiling shook her head.
“Fair enough.”
Song Shi acknowledged it, just like his Thousand Transformations Technique. Although he could become someone else, it was impossible for him to really become someone else. His soul would still be his own.
“Most importantly, the Demon Kingdom doesn’t have the Lang Ya Token. If they didn’t join forces, they wouldn’t be qualified to participate. Therefore, you don’t have to worry too much about them snatching the Immortal opportunity.”
“Stop muttering. Prepare yourself to ascend the Immortal opportunity platform. As long as you can climb above three thousand steps, you are qualified to enter the mystic realm. If you can climb a little more, you will obtain another reward for every three thousand steps. These rewards are all treasures contributed by the various countries.”
Jiang Sha interrupted Song Shi and Chen Yiling.
“Why aren’t you removing Junior Sister Youyou’s seal?”
Luo Chi harrumphed.
Song Shi flicked out a flame. Lu Youyou’s body relaxed and she regained her freedom. Just as she was about to bare her fangs and brandish her claws, Song Shi said, “If you want to be sealed again, you can say whatever you want.”
Lu Youyou held back the words of scolding that she had been preparing for a long time. Her face turned red. “You’re bullying me. Boohoo!”
Song Shi could not be bothered and said to Chen Yiling, “Let’s go over.”
Since this step allowed Foundation Establishment cultivators to climb, he would naturally give Chen Yiling a chance.
The latter was surprised. “I thought you wouldn’t let me go.”
“You don’t want to go?”
“I don’t care, because this Immortal opportunity platform can only be ascended once in my life. If I don’t ascend this time, I can try again a hundred years later. At that time, when I reach the Golden Core realm, my foundation can be deeper and I might have a better chance at succeeding.”
Chen Yiling was noncommittal, “After all, this step tests one’s foundation, including talent, perseverance, and foundation.”
Song Shi was enlightened. “How many levels are you confident in reaching?”
“More than six thousand steps, but it’s a little difficult to advance further and reach the top nine thousand steps.”
Chen Yiling looked at Song Shi, “Unless you return the spiritual sword to me.”
