Chapter 804 Entering the Arena
Chapter 804 Entering the Arena
In the early morning, a ray of bright morning glow rose from the horizon, and an extremely sloppy old man appeared from the end of the sky, holding up his baggy pants in his hands, which looked very funny.
"Is this what you call the ancestor?" Lu Hao let out a sigh. This person didn't look like a master.
"Yes, he is our Tianji ancestor!" Tian Fen's old face turned red, and there was a bit of embarrassment and awkwardness in his voice.
"Ancestor Frog?" Lu Hao couldn't help but reveal a strange look on his face.
"You little bastard, I am the ancestor of Tianji, not the ancestor of Tianji!" The sloppy old man had excellent hearing and glared at Lu Hao angrily.
After the group reunited, they all took off and flew towards the capital of the Dune Kingdom. Various magical weapons could be seen flying around wherever they passed. It was obvious that these cultivators were also going to attend the Immortal Cultivator Conference in five days.
The Tianji Patriarch had a good eloquence and talked about all sorts of things. Lu Hao could often answer easily when others couldn't. The two of them chatted very well all the way, and in the end they even put their arms around each other's shoulders and became brothers.
"My young friend, I feel that you and I are of the same kind. I am in a good mood today, so I will pass on a scripture to you!" The ancestor of Tianji held his white beard with his hand, with a kind look on his face.
"In that case, thank you very much!" Lu Hao was overjoyed. He didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain. He hurriedly took the yellow ancient book handed to him by the other party and couldn't wait to read it.
"A method of health preservation!" Lu Hao looked at the title of the ancient book and couldn't help feeling disappointed. He originally thought that the other party had given him a very powerful spell, but it turned out to be just a useless method of health preservation. He began to read with a listless look.
"The Empress said, 'Fill your mouth with saliva, then swallow it. Swallow every half a minute, repeat several times.' Regular practice will ensure your physique remains strong. This is my way to maintain health...!"
"Hmm!" Lu Hao felt a surge of energy after reading the first paragraph. He nodded repeatedly, quite satisfied with the Empress's health regimen.
Qin Miaoyin must be allowed to practice sometime, after all, she might really be a real empress.
In fact, after being with Qin Miaoyin for such a long time, he already had a vague guess in his heart that the other party was the reincarnation of the empress.
After a day's flight, they finally arrived in the imperial capital. Lu Hao even passed by the gate of Xia Mansion. He looked at the ruined house with a complicated expression. He had lived here with Qin Miaoyin for a long time.
This conference of immortal cultivators, which is held only once every hundred years, was convened personally by the Emperor of Dune Kingdom. The venue of the competition was the largest square in the imperial capital, which could accommodate 100,000 spectators. The participants were the sects of Dune Kingdom and some neighboring countries.
The sect that stands out here will gain greater prestige and voice in the world of immortal cultivation. At the same time, it can also attract more immortal cultivation geniuses to join, thereby enhancing the strength of the sect.
The imperial capital is now crowded with people. There are monks from various sects on the streets. All the inns are full, and it is impossible to walk on the streets.
The emperor personally arranged accommodation for some prestigious large sects. Obviously, Guigu Sect was not among these large sects, so it could only find a place to live on its own.
Lu Hao and his group stood awkwardly in the corner. It was raining heavily outside and the wind was howling, making everyone's clothes rustle.
"It's all your fault, Grandpa. Otherwise, we would have booked an inn long ago. Why are we in such a mess?" Tian Xin complained in a low voice, with a hint of grievance in her voice.
Upon hearing this, Tianji Patriarch felt embarrassed. He was indeed a day late. It was all because of that vixen's pink arms that were too tempting, making it impossible for him to escape for a while.
Lu Hao took a look at these unreliable and weird teammates and finally understood why Guigu Sect declined.
Finally, they walked all the way out of the city and finally found accommodation in a remote street.
A few people were eating in the lobby of the inn when they heard the sound of monks talking nearby.
"It is said that the biggest favorite in this competition is Gao Lingtian from the Wanjian Sect. His cultivation has reached the Void Breaking Realm, and he can be said to be the best young man in the Dune Country!" A cultivator couldn't help but exclaimed, his eyes full of envy and admiration.
"Breaking the Void Realm?" Lu Hao couldn't help but mutter. This realm is very special. It requires more than just cultivation. It also requires understanding life and death and refining the mind in the mortal world. Some cultivators are stuck in this realm for their entire lives.
"Gao Lingtian's strength is not just that. It is said that under the guidance of his elders, he has also comprehended the last move of Ten Thousand Swords Transforming into Dragons." Another young girl held her cheeks with her delicate hands, looking like a crazy fan.
Everyone began to discuss some powerful and popular disciples from other sects.
"Alas, facing these opponents who are stronger than the other, I just hope that our Guigu Sect won't lose too badly." Tianxin sighed softly.
"Don't worry, junior sister. I'm here. Even if we can't make it to the finals, it should be no problem for us to get into the top 200." Zhang Yan comforted her softly, with a confident look on his face.
"Thank goodness you!" Tianxin looked at her senior brother lovingly, her eyes full of tenderness and sweetness.
Hearing this, Lu Hao glanced at the two of them with a strange look on his face.
After several days of waiting, the Immortal Cultivation Conference finally officially began amid the anticipation of countless people.
Led by Tian Fen, they entered a huge square. It was dark and crowded with people. They couldn't even move and had to wait in line for a long time.
"Huh..." Lu Hao let out a light breath and finally walked into the venue. He saw several familiar figures sitting in the most eye-catching VIP seats.
Xia Xinyi was standing gracefully in a sexy pink long dress. She had a beautiful face, eyes as bright as stars, and skin as white and crystal clear. Suddenly, a breeze blew gently past, lifting her long black hair and outlining her proud curves.
Many men in the field couldn't help but look at her and were deeply attracted to her.
Next to her was a young man with loose black hair and an attractive and heroic appearance. He was Gao Lingtian. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, with a hint of arrogance. It was an innate self-confidence, and he exuded a unique charm in his every move.
The two of them were chatting and laughing in the VIP seats, like a perfect match made in heaven.
"I heard that these two have got engaged and will be getting married next month." A cultivator next to Lu Hao suddenly spoke.
"Perhaps this marriage can only be a ghost marriage!" Lu Hao looked up at the sky expressionlessly and muttered to himself.
