Chapter 699: The Ninth Island!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
This time, the one that was disqualified was an elite warrior from the Heavenly Fire Southern Border. He also belonged to the same level as Qin Taichong. Naturally, this person had ranked sixth.
When one saw that the next person who was disqualified was not from the Qin Clan, the complexion of each person of the Xin Clan had turned to be blood red. Xin Tianchen felt drops of blood dripping from his heart as he thought viciously, “Such great evil doers have emerged from the Qin Clan all of a sudden, it would be disastrous if we allow them to keep developing like this! Now only five people had remained, no matter how bad it would become, the Qin Clan would at least gain a spot in the top four. Once they have acquired a spot in the top four, they would gain one Supreme Dao Fruit. If Qin Wushuang had also truly seized Supreme Dao Fruit from the Emei Daoist Sect earlier, the Qin Clan will have three or four Supreme Dao Fruits… The consequence is unthinkable!”
In fact, Xin Tianchen was feeling madly indignant. For this Supreme Dao Fruit, one would not see one for a few hundred years. At least in the past thousand years, the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates had never seen such fortunate divine fruit!
However, during this journey to the Illusion Heavenly Lake, Supreme Dao Fruit have appeared in succession and have greatly challenged Xin Tianchen’s nerves!
He felt the most depressed because ever since the Supreme Dao Fruit had appeared, the Xin Clan were always the ones badly bruised during each contest. Xin Wuji even paid his life for it!
Yet the Qin Clan continuously profited! This made Xin Tianchen feel profoundly dissatisfied!
A sense of crisis kept invading him. It also caused Xin Tianchen’s mood to change. Supreme Dao Fruit, he must seize the Supreme Dao Fruit!
Xin Tianchen understood that he must not allow people from the Qin Clan to consume this fruit. Or else, once these Supreme Dao Fruits started to work, the political situation of the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates would suffer a drastic change.
Sitting and watching the Qin Clan get stronger? This was something the Heavenly Emperor Xin Clan was never willing to see. Especially for the Heavenly Emperor election every five hundred years, regardless, he must not allow the Qin Clan to have the chance to disrupt things in this pageant!
Thinking here, Xin Tianchen quietly left the Heavenly Emperor and arrived at a secluded place. He activated the communication jade plate and made contact with the Heavenly Emperor.
“Tianchen, how’s the situation over there? Has the ordeal competition not ended?” Xin Tianwen, the Heavenly Emperor asked with an indifferent tone.
“Your Majesty, I think the curtain is almost falling. However, the outlook of the situation works to our disadvantage extremely.” Xin Tianchen was almost gnashing his teeth with anger.
“Hm?”
“That Qin Clan, the two people of the Qin Clan have made it to the top five! The top four will be rewarded with Supreme Dao Fruit. Since those two have made it into the top five, even if they both achieve the worst grade, one would be in fourth place. Certainly, they will get one of the Supreme Dao Fruits! Heavenly Emperor, how’s the preparation over at the Heavenly Emperor Mountain?”
When Xin Tianwen heard this news abruptly, he was violently shaken. However, in the end he was a person that had occupied a high position for a long time. Xin Tianwen did not excessively lose his calm. After stunned for a moment, he said, “Tianchen, over your side, try not to make any noise and let it flow. Return, there will be arrangements. Humph humph, Supreme Dao Fruit… the more they get, the happier I am.”
“Your majesty, you mean?” Xin Tianchen was happy all of a sudden. This way, could the Heavenly Emperor have already arranged everything?
“Tianchen, do not beat the grass and scare the snake,” Xin Tianwen said indifferently. “Also, do not let the Qin Clan see any openings, understand?”
“Yes, your majesty,” Xin Tianchen immediately responded and then asked, “Your Majesty, is there still no news of Wuji?”
A few months have already passed. If there was still no news, perhaps Xin Wuji had truly been dead.
Suddenly, Xin Tianwen’s tone had become heavy as he said lightly, “Tianchen, do not ask about Wuji. Do not talk to anyone else! I can only tell you that he’s not dead! However, for this news, you cannot tell anyone, understand?”
“Wuji is not dead?” Xin Tianchen was exulted. “Your majesty, the Coagulate Spirit Genuine Soul Book you had bestowed to him must have worked. Ha ha ha, great! Your majesty, this is great.”
Xin Tianwen gave a slight sneer, “It’s still somewhat troublesome. Anyways, for these matters, you will learn more when you come back.”
Initially, after Xin Wuji had robbed Ruo Ping Fairy’s body, he had returned to the Heavenly Emperor Mountain keeping a low-profile. When Xin Tianwen saw his beloved son appear in such a way, all sorts of feelings welled up in his heart.
When he left the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, he was a man with rich ambitions. Yet, when he returned, he had turned into an elegant lady.
However, his son was not dead in the end. While Xin Tianwen was furious, he also felt somewhat grateful. The matter of changing his body could get solved slowly.
Therefore, he comforted Xin Wuji, “Wuji, don’t be frustrated. Now, you should just train and make a dash for the Supreme Dao Stage. When you achieve the divine soul, I will mold an ideal male body for you. You can just destroy this body by that time.”
Xin Wuji’s tone was brimming with bitter resentment, “Great father, that Qin Wushuang caused me to be like this. If the Qin Clan does not get destroyed, there will always be a knot inside my heart. It will be extremely difficult for me to make a dash for the Supreme Dao Stage!”
In order to pound against the Supreme Dao barriers, one must solve all their troubles inside their hearts. Like Honored Warrior Zhi Huai of the Qin Clan, with one devil inside his heart, he had been disturbed for a few hundred years and was unable to break into the Supreme Dao Stage.
As Xin Tianwen was an expert, of course he knew about it. He nodded lightly. “Wuji, don’t worry, I will not let you wait too long for this day.”
“Ok! Father, I must capture that Qin Wushuang alive and let him have a taste of what it’s like to become a woman!” Xin Wuji’s mentality was completely twisted.
…
On the transportation platform of the eighth island of the Illusion Heavenly Lake, five qualifiers had already stepped onto the platform. Including Ling Tianzhi, the other three all looked at Qin Wushuang and Qin Taichong with a somewhat astonished look.
Only five people remained?
How come Zhu Yunyan was not here?
Clearly, those three had felt incredibly strange. If only five people were left in the end, Zhu Yunyan should be here.
Why was Zhu Yunyan not here, yet the Qin Clan had two people? Could it be that elite warrior Zhu Yunyan was also disqualified? Who disqualified Zhu Yunyan?
As those three people looked at each other, they could see the confusion in each other’s eyes. With some thought, they felt apprehended inwardly. Could it be, those two disciples of the Qin Clan had disqualified Zhu Yunyan?
They knew about Zhu Yunyan’s strength and he was definitely on a similar level as them. They all possessed power to be at the Peak of the Common Mysterious Stage!
Additionally, that Zhu Yunyan specialized in transformation. He was indeed, powerful and a figure that was the hot topic to win the championship. If Zhu Yunyan was disqualified by Qin Wushuang quietly, then…
The gazes of these three had become complicated instantly. They looked at Qin Wushuang and Qin Taichong from the corner of their eyes and felt an unprecedented mutual understanding.
They must not let these two heroic figures of the Qin Clan join hands. Regardless, they must separate them and disqualify one of them.
Or else, as these two people had joined hands, they would always hold an advantage compared to them fighting alone!
Through the exchange of glances, these three had achieved an unprecedented mutual understanding. Although Qin Wushuang had appeared calm and collected on the surface, he was in a perilous situation inside.
Certainly these three had reached a mutual understanding!
Exactly as Qin Wushuang had expected, the ninth island would be their main battlefield. Everything was within his calculation!
Only, the random transportation of this channel would more or less give rise to a blank period for the alliance of the two people of the Qin Clan.
Therefore, at this point, Qin Wushuang would not dare to promise that he could regroup with Senior Brother Taichong before those three people.
Senior Brother Taichong’s power was not a problem. However, the remaining three opponents were all warriors at the same level as Xin Wuji!
There was Ling Tianzhi from the Heavenly Mountain Sect of the Extreme North Snow Zone!
There was Jiang Kui of the One-Legged Mountain Dragon of the Eastern Sea.
And finally, Lu Qingchuan from the Flying Rainbow sect of the Illusion Heavenly Lake.
These three were all proud sons of the heaven from each sect. Additionally, they were the strongest elite warriors of the younger generation beneath the totem clan from each Forbidden Spiritual Zone.
They were equal with Xin Wuji and Zhu Yunyan, who was disqualified by Qin Wushuang, were called the Five Tian Xuan Heros.
Of course, the name of these five was made up by the secular world to surround them with a sense of awe. Since the totem powerhouse had not stepped out, of course they would claim to be heros.
Compared to the exceptional disciples of the totem clan, these Five Tian Xuan Heroes would be too pale by comparison. If putting them into the powerhouses of the totem clans, the strength of these five would at most, be average in level.
Yet at this moment, these three were major enemies of the two brothers from the Qin Clan.
Qin Wushuang sent his voice to Qin Taichong, “Senior Brother Taichong, these three have already formed a mutual understanding. When we arrive at the ninth island, if we are close, I will go find you. If we are not close, use all means necessary to make sure you are not chased and killed.”
Qin Wushuang weighed the degree of seriousness. He knew that if they were far away from each other, before Qin Wushuang could make it, perhaps Senior Brother Taichong would get targeted by the others.
Therefore, the situation would be incredibly subtle for the battle on this ninth island.
In the viewpoint of Qin Wushuang, the crucial point was for the two of them to enter the top four. If making it to the top four, even if Senior Brother Taichong were to get kicked out, he would have a Supreme Dao Fruit as a reward.
As for the second or fourth place, they would all get Supreme Dao Fruit. The only difference would be either getting the Supreme Dao armor or weapon. Although the Qin Clan did not have too much of these two rewards, for someone at Qin Taichong’s level, he would not be missing out too much!
Therefore, Qin Wushuang’s goal was to help Senior Brother Taichong to make it to the top four! As long as he had entered the top four, even if Qin Wushuang did not win the championship, he could make sure the Qin Clan acquires two Supreme Dao Fruits!
If Qin Wushuang became the champion, it would mean three Supreme Dao Fruits!
Qin Wushuang knew profoundly that the chance to change the fate of the Qin Clan is right before his eyes! It would depend whether or not he could extend his hand to seize it. If he could bring back five Supreme Dao Fruit through this trip to the Illusion Heavenly Lake, to the Qin Clan that was deteriorating day by day, it would be a gigantic turning point unquestionably!
For your information, five Supreme Dao Fruits were a major fortuitous opportunity which wouldn’t even occur every few thousand years. Even for the extremely powerful totem elite warriors, each house could only afford to give one Supreme Dao Fruit!
It was obvious to see how precious this object was!
“I must… must help Senior Brother Taichong make it to the top four! Two Supreme Dao Fruits are the bottom-line!” Qin Wushuang secretly established this goal.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
As the transportation formation was activated, five figures had been sent to the ninth island. While one furthered to head into the ordeal islands, each island would be much more vast than the previous one. The terrain would be more complicated as well. The size of this ninth island was five times bigger than the first one.
The instant when each person was transported, a voice sounded next to their ears. “Young people, the environment of this island will be enough to form a threat to all of you! There will be many spiritual beast at the same level as you. Of course, if you can make it smoothly and enter the island of the fourth level, it’s possible that you will face a Supreme Dao spiritual beast!”
