The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud-Chapter 916: Divine Shepherd Sect

Chapter 916: Divine Shepherd Sect

Although Su Jingzhen already had some suspicions in his heart, he did not show them.

After this grand event concluded, he was determined to confront Xuan Jin and demand an explanation.

Even if it meant deliberately provoking a confrontation, he was resolved to do so.

While Su Jingzhen and Ning Yao were conversing, almost everyone in the secret realms began to research the pharmacological properties of the poisons.

This allowed them to enter into the third scenario.

The third scenario was the same for everyone: a shattered world.

Whether it was Tian Lin, Mu Qingshi, or any of the other distinguished individuals, upon entering this shattered world, they all felt a profound sense of awe.

However, they quickly understood the purpose of the third scenario.

All those who entered the third scenario, like Little Ling at the beginning, began to refine the corresponding pills near the areas where the Dao essence of their respective paths was most concentrated.

"Although everyone has subconsciously excluded Su Jingzhen, whether it's Dantai Ling'er, Tian Lin, or Mu Qingshi, these methodical alchemy geniuses are indeed pleasing to the eye.

However, with the brilliance of his earlier performance, their current operations seem somewhat ordinary in comparison".

"Indeed, although everyone deliberately avoided him, no one in this grand alchemy event can overshadow his brilliance."

"..."

Meanwhile, in the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, Little Green had already completely absorbed and refined the Dao essence from the floating islands that Su Jingzhen had collected.

Little Green now had three branches, and the entire tree had grown to about half a meter in height.

Although it was still a sapling, it already exuded a faint aura of majesty, resembling a divine tree.

As Little Green grew, the world force in the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss became more concentrated, and the various energies within it increased exponentially.

Su Jingzhen's consciousness attempted to gather a substantial amount of world force, which he could easily channel into his physical body.

Su Jingzhen felt that with his current strength at the second level of the Body Venerable Realm, if he unleashed his full power and combined it with the world force of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, he could likely contend with a late-stage Celestial Being Realm cultivator.

If he performed well, he might even approach the combat strength of the Great Perfection Realm.

Moreover, he still had over 10,000 points.

If he encountered Xuan Jin and they had a one-on-one battle, it was uncertain who would emerge victorious.

As time passed, a whole day passed.

No one had emerged from the third scenario yet.

Still, no one else had emerged except for Su Jingzhen.

After chatting with Su Jingzhen for a while, Ning Yao returned to the crowd of people from the Profound Mystery Dao Sect.

As she was now a member of the sect, it wouldn't be proper for her to stay with Su Jingzhen all the time.

Time passed quickly, and the three-day deadline was approaching.

Under Su Jingzhen's gaze, Little Ling had been continuously refining the pills, having already made 78 of them.

Each one seemed to have reached the level of a top-grade or even superior pill.

However, she still hadn't managed to infuse the Great Dao into the pills.

At this moment, Little Ling's aura was fully unleashed, and the flames in her hand seemed to have changed color, turning a deep red.

She took out another pile of medicinal materials and started again, her state seemingly much better than before.

"Little Ling seems to have gained some insight from her previous attempts at refining pills, perhaps she's about to succeed," Su Jingzhen muttered to himself.

He felt a pang of regret for not doing things this way from the beginning.

If he had only focused on refining pills normally, he wouldn't have been forced out of the Divine Dan Sect prematurely.

As Su Jingzhen was lost in thought, Little Green from the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss spoke up again, "That broken world is still extremely important to us. We've missed this opportunity, so we must find a way to enter that shattered space."

Another branch had grown, and the temptation was becoming more and more difficult for even Little Green to resist.

Su Jingzhen nodded solemnly.

Half an hour later, Little Ling's expression turned serious again.

She threw all the refined medicinal materials into the flames in her palm.

Although it was just a projected image of the array, Su Jingzhen and the others could still sense the rich fragrance of the pills.

At this moment, all the water elements on the floating island where Little Ling was seemed to be converging towards her.

Like an inverted tornado, they suddenly poured into the pill in her hand.

"This is... the Great Dao's blessing!"

"She will succeed!"

"Indeed, she's the strongest dark horse in this competition!"

"If the water Great Dao on that floating island wasn't broken, perhaps she would have been able to comprehend it as well!"

"She's only in her teens, is it really possible for someone to be this talented?"

The onlookers were shocked and amazed by the scene unfolding before them.

The next moment, while the crowd was still in awe, a pale blue pill suddenly flew out of Little Ling's palm.

The pill had numerous water-flower patterns on its surface, and it was filled with rich water attribute elements.

Through the array, the crowd could sense the fluctuations on the pill, and it was clear that it was a 6th Grade pill.

Moreover, it was likely a high-level among the 6th grade pills.

As soon as Little Ling grasped the pill, her figure disappeared from the third scene.

When she reappeared, she was indeed back in the central square.

It wasn't like what Su Jingzhen had imagined, with more scenes to follow.

When Little Ling's figure appeared in the central square, the crowd fell silent for a moment before bursting into applause.

Su Jingzhen might be a freak, but Little Ling was the perfect normal participant in everyone's eyes.

Little Ling's face showed a hint of confusion, and her gaze unconsciously turned to the high-ranking members of the Divine Dan Sect.

At this time, Zhou Daoqi and the others looked at her with appreciation, without the anger they had shown when looking at Su Jingzhen.

"Congratulations, you are the second person to pass the second round of the test!" Zhou Daoqi stepped forward and said to Little Ling.

Upon hearing this, Little Ling blinked her big eyes in surprise.

She had thought that this time she was the absolute first. After all, from the first scene to the third scene, everything had been smooth sailing for her.

However, when her gaze turned to her previous location and saw Su Jingzhen's smiling figure, she felt relieved.

If someone else had surpassed her, she might have felt unhappy. But if that person was Su Jingzhen, then it was okay.

After bowing to Zhou Daoqi and the others, Little Ling quickly flew over to Su Jingzhen. "Big Brother Su, you are the first, you are so amazing!"

Looking at Su Jingzhen, Little Ling felt genuinely happy and admiring. "When did you come out? Was it just now?"

Su Jingzhen could see that Little Ling was still confident in herself, and he didn't know how to respond.

If he told the truth, it might discourage her.

Considering his earlier achievements, however, it was only a matter of time before she found out.

He smiled and said, "It wasn't just now, I came out on the first day. Let's just say my second round was a bit unexpected."

Little Ling's big eyes blinked again, and she looked curious.

However, she also sensed that Su Jingzhen's words seemed to be hiding something.

Little Ling didn't press the issue further.

Time passed again, and nearly an hour had passed.

The group of people who had grasped the Dan Heart were gradually succeeding in refining their pills.

Although the Great Dao rhythm they had captured might not be as rich as Little Ling's, it was still enough to meet the standard for advancing.

The order in which they emerged was also a topic of speculation among the crowd.

Tian Lin came out third without any surprises, and he was also confident that he was the first.

After all, the scenes of the second round had not been too challenging for him.

However, when he saw Su Jingzhen and Little Ling standing on the observation deck, the confident smile on his face suddenly froze.

"How is this possible?"

He unconsciously questioned it, but he was also the Son of Heaven, and he quickly adjusted his mindset to accept the fact.

Still, in his heart, he couldn't help but feel a bit awkward.

This time, he had come with a mission, but he had been suppressed from the start of the first round.

In fact, it wasn't just Tian Lin; even Mu Qingshi and the others who had always been surrounded by glory were also suppressed by Su Jingzhen.

As time neared the end, more and more people were coming out of the third scene.

Wang Yingying and Mu Qingshi were among them, but Mu Qingshi, who had always been overflowing with confidence, was ranked over a hundred.

After emerging, he was no longer as arrogant as before.

When he looked at Su Jingzhen and Little Ling, he didn't show the same resentment as before.

Instead, he seemed a bit restrained and worried.

However, no one paid any attention to Mu Qingshi's condition.

Soon, the three-day time limit was over!

Only about a thousand people had successfully emerged from the third scene.

The crowd couldn't help but sigh again.

"This time, there were 2.3 million participants in the second round, and I didn't expect the elimination rate to be so high.

I thought eliminating half would be impressive enough."

"It seems that even among alchemists of the same level, the gap is huge."

"That's right, don't look at the fact that the threshold for this round is only 5th grade alchemists, but some people will spend their whole lives at the 5th grade level.

While others can stand at the top of the alchemist world in the cultivation realm."

"Indeed, although each round of this event is a benefit provided by the Divine Dan Sect to the broad masses of alchemists, it seems that some people are not worthy of such benefits."

At this moment, the over a thousand people who had advanced to the third round were undoubtedly the focus of the attention of hundreds of millions of viewers.

When the time came to an end, the image on the central square suddenly disappeared and the barrier collapsed.

The square returned to its original state, and the hundreds of thousands of people stood there in a daze.

The next moment, Zhou Daoqi stepped forward again.

With a gentle wave of his hand, Su Jingzhen and the others who had passed the second round became a beam of light.

The others, on the other hand, were left in darkness.

"Congratulations to those who have successfully entered the third round! The third round will test your endurance!

You can go back and prepare now, but just like the first round, the top three this time will also receive a unique reward from the Divine Dan Sect!"

Zhou Daoqi didn't reveal what the reward was.

His gaze turned to the hundreds of thousands of alchemists looking at each other.

"As for the rest of you, this second round has already given you the blessings you could have obtained, so it's not a loss."

He didn't directly say that they were eliminated, but the implication was clear.

The people who still had a glimmer of hope in their eyes suddenly lost their light.

No one dared to question Zhou Daochi's words.

His gaze turned back to Su Jingzhen, Little Ling, and Tian Lin.

The crowd couldn't help but feel a sense of awe as the top three spots were once again taken by these three individuals.

"It seems that the unique rewards for each round of this grand event will go to no one else."

"Why don't these three just join the Divine Dan Sect directly and give others a chance? It's not like they need the opportunity."

At this moment, countless spectators felt a mix of envy, jealousy, and hatred in their hearts.

Human nature is such that even if they can't obtain something themselves, seeing others get it will still evoke a sense of discomfort.

"Su Jingzhen, Dantai Ling'er, Tian Lin, follow me!"

Zhou Daochi still didn't reveal the rewards for the top three.

However, Su Jingzhen and the others had experience from the previous time, so they didn't hesitate and took a step towards Zhou Daochi.

The latter led them toward the buildings in the high skies of the Divine Dan Sect.

It was clear that the rewards were still at the Divine Dan Sect's headquarters.

Soon, Zhou Daochi led the three of them to a platform deep within the Divine Dan Sect.

At this moment, Su Jingzhen once again saw a line of golden text appear before his eyes.

Three days had passed.

The daily fixed points had arrived again, but during those three days, no one had resonated with him.

The points he received were just the dry, fixed points.

[Remaining usable points: 15755].

Although he still received over a hundred points each day, this amount was truly insignificant to Su Jingzhen.

After receiving the fixed points, he looked at Zhou Daochi with curiosity.

Since he was able to choose an item from the treasure trove in the first round, the second round would surely be even better.

Facing the curious glances of Su Jingzhen and the others, Zhou Daochi's face revealed a mysterious smile.

"Please continue to follow me."

As soon as he had finished speaking, Zhou Daochi waved his hand.

On the jade-white platform, a swirling portal suddenly appeared.

The other end of the portal seemed to have an extremely mysterious aura.

...

As Su Jingzhen and the others received their rewards, the central square was still crowded with people.

The spectators had no intention of leaving, as the final selection of the Divine Dan Sect's event would be held on this central square.

At the same time, in the building where Dantai Mingjing and the others were, the white-robed elder who had been sent to investigate the attack on Little Ling had returned.

He looked at the Great Elder with a serious expression.

"Great Elder, I've investigated and found out that the black-robed person who attacked Su Jingzhen and the others three days ago is from the Divine Shepherd Realm.

He is a Mystic Immortal Realm-level elder of the Divine Shepherd Sect, named Shi Yin.

He also has another identity, which is the guardian of the young master of the Divine Shepherd Sect, Mu Qingshi!"

After a pause, the old man in white robes continued: "After investigating and obtaining certain evidence, our people in the Emperor Realm have already rushed to the Divine Shepherd Realm.

With just one order from the Great Elder, the Divine Shepherd Sect can be removed from the cultivation world!"

As he spoke, the eyes of everyone in the building turned to the Great Elder.

The fate of a top-tier sect hung in the balance, dependent on the Great Elder's decision.
