System's Super Sect Chapter 1313 - 1145: Maybe They Just Didn’t Like It, So They Didn’t Pick It Up
Previously on System's Super Sect...
"What, missing your wife already? Keep drinking!"
When Prince Longyang finished speaking, Wen Ping urged Si Haixian, who was standing there like a wooden stake with his cup raised, stunned.
"O-okay... okay... Sect Leader Wen, I’ll down this, you drink as you like." Pulled out of his thoughts by Wen Ping, Si Haixian drained the strong liquor in his cup in one go.
Wen Ping understood very clearly how disappointed and despondent Si Haixian felt at this moment.
Men, after all.
When he downs a full cup in one breath,
either he’s got something on his mind,
or he’s a drunk.
For someone like Si Haixian, who had cultivated to this Realm, how could he possibly be the kind of man bewitched by the fleeting pleasure wine provides?
Not everyone is the Cyan Lotus Sword Immortal!
The next moment, Wen Ping immediately sent his voice into Si Haixian’s ear with his Spiritual Power.
"Domain Master Si, if you feel disappointed, then join the Immortal Sect. I may not be a sage, but I can at least promise I won’t let you down."
"Huh?"
Si Haixian was startled by this sudden voice.
"No need to be surprised, just a minor trick. Everything Prince Longyang said just now, I heard it all; your persistence, I also saw it all."
After the voice transmission, Wen Ping followed up with another sentence.
This time, it was spoken aloud.
"What, just now you were spacing out thinking about taking a concubine?"
Si Haixian gave a helpless smile and replied, "Nothing can be hidden from Sect Leader Wen, huh."
Wen Ping sent another voice transmission.
"If you want to have a say, you need strength. And that happens to be exactly what my Immortal Sect can give you. Think it over carefully, I’ll give you time!"
After the voice transmission, he continued aloud, "Since you want to take a concubine, then do it. You still afraid no one’s willing to marry you?"
Si Haixian pondered for a few breaths, then finally nodded slowly. "Sect Leader Wen, I’ll give it serious thought."
"Then I won’t nag, let’s keep watching the match." Since Si Haixian was already disappointed in the You Country Royal Family and had the thought of throwing in with the Immortal Sect, Wen Ping didn’t see the need to say more.
Saying too much would backfire instead.
Like when you want something too badly, most of the time you end up not getting it.
Si Haixian forced out a bit of a smile, tossed back another cup of strong liquor, then looked toward the Floating Island and sighed, "On the Floating Island, the scariest thing is never the dangers you can see, but those Cultivation Techniques and Vein Techniques that can let someone soar into the heavens in one leap. No one can resist their temptation!"
As soon as Si Haixian finished, Prince Longyang unexpectedly chimed in.
"That’s what makes it exciting. Cultivation is a process of fighting, isn’t it? Fighting for resources, fighting for rankings, and fighting for anything you can fight for."
Once Prince Longyang spoke, the others all began to echo him.
The many Celestial Unrestricted all expressed their agreement.
As for those Six-star Influences and Five-star Influences, they naturally followed along with endless praise.
"Your Highness truly has keen insight, isn’t Cultivation precisely a process of fighting?"
"Your Highness is wise!"
"Your Highness’s perspective is indeed extraordinary. I’m afraid even if we cultivated our whole lives, we still wouldn’t be able to arrive at such a profound realization!"
...
The voices of flattery were unending.
Prince Longyang was also greatly enjoying himself as he smiled and continued, "When they discover those Cultivation Techniques and Vein Techniques, that’s when the real contest begins!"
As his words fell, in the scene from the Floating Island, someone had already made contact with a Jade Scroll bursting with floating light. When he stuck his hand into the floating light, grabbed the Jade Scroll, and opened it, his face instantly showed a near-maniacal excitement. Without a second thought, he stuffed it straight into his Storage Ring!
Then he looked around, and seeing no one had noticed, immediately bolted toward the depths of the forest.
Because what he had found was an Earth Level Lower Grade School Vein Technique!
An Earth Level Lower Grade School Vein Technique already counted as extremely rare.
If you weren’t a core member of a Five-star Giant Influence, you couldn’t cultivate it!
For an ordinary Five-star Influence, their strongest Clan Suppression Vein Technique was nothing more than this.
As it happened, the one who had obtained this Cultivation Technique came from a regular Five-star Influence, which was why he was so excited and agitated.
"Here we go!"
Prince Longyang watched, very interested, at the young man in the image whose entire body was bursting with bright floating light.
At the same time, more and more people were discovering the Jade Scrolls within the floating light.
Everyone who found a Jade Scroll was thrilled.
At the same time, more and more people had invisible floating light bursting off their bodies.
As time went on, when a group of people ran into each other and someone discovered that the person opposite him had floating light on his body completely different from his own, he finally realized something was off.
A great battle was inevitable.
Just like that, after several big fights, quite a few people finally figured out the pattern of the floating light and learned the fact that the brighter the floating light, the better the spoils.
So, those who’d understood this rule began to hunt down those whose bodies burst with dazzling floating light.
All four hundred plus people fell into a scramble.
Because the allure of the Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Techniques was simply too great.
Some even formed teams specifically to plunder and search for Earth Level Vein Techniques.
Seeing this, Prince Longyang said with delight, "This is how it should be. If you don’t fight or snatch, you might as well just be an ordinary person."
"Go for it!"
As the newly promoted Domain Master of the Primordial Yang Domain, Xing Sha also excitedly shouted beside Prince Longyang, drawing countless people into a chorus of cheers.
The spectators who were cheering were all green with envy.
"Earth Level School Vein Techniques everywhere, Earth Level Cultivation Techniques everywhere—what a pity, what a pity I wasn’t around for the Seven Domains Celestial Ascension Ranking when I was young."
"As long as you get an Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Technique, even if you don’t earn the favor of a Celestial Unrestricted powerhouse and don’t receive rewards from the Sect Leader of the Immortal Sect, your life is set."
"Exactly, with a Vein Technique of that Grade, you’ll absolutely have no opponents within the same Realm. Even if you don’t catch the eye of a Celestial Unrestricted powerhouse, you might still gain the favor of a Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted or an Earth Unrestricted Upper Realm powerhouse. In this life, you’re bound to become a major big shot!"
Amid everyone’s envious chatter, a very jarring voice suddenly rang out, "It’s just an Earth Unrestricted Upper Grade School Vein Technique. Is that really worth fighting over?"
The one who spoke was indeed Huai Ye of the Immortal Sect.
Huai Ye’s comment immediately drew a lot of attention.
But when they saw Huai Ye sitting behind the Sect Leader of the Immortal Sect, any impulse they had to curse "What are you pretending for?" vanished in an instant.
The Immortal Sect, after all.
Not something they could afford to provoke!
Prince Longyang couldn’t help but laugh as he said, "Sect Leader Wen, the Disciples of your sect really are extraordinary. So young, and he already looks down on Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Techniques!"
His words made quite a few people almost burst out laughing.
But afraid of angering Wen Ping, they tried their best to hold it in, or turned their heads away as they laughed.
Wen Ping smiled calmly and replied, "Children speak without scruples. Prince Longyang, don’t take it to heart. Who would dare say they look down on an Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Technique?"
Huai Ye immediately changed his tune.
"Seniors, I was talking nonsense, don’t take it seriously, don’t take it seriously."
Seeing that Wen Ping and his disciples had all said so, everyone stopped paying attention to such a trivial matter.
After all, children’s words carry no harm!
Everyone’s gaze returned to the image of the Floating Island, where multiple places on the Floating Island were erupting into battles over Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Techniques.
"Brothers, surround him. The flickering light around this guy’s body is so dazzling, it must be an Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Technique!" A man in the Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression glared viciously at a panicked youth whose back was pressed against a large tree. "First we snatch the thing, then we’ll discuss how to split it!"
After the man gave the order, the five or six people beside him immediately surrounded the youth and rushed in as one, and in an instant they forced that youth off the Floating Island.
When the youth, under threat to his life, was forcibly expelled from the Floating Island, that scroll of Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Technique fell down.
Everyone was overjoyed!
Sure enough, it was an Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Technique!
However, just then, a rustling sound came from within the forest. They immediately put the Vein Technique away and took up a defensive formation.
The next moment.
Several Immortal Sect disciples in white robes walked out of the woods, chatting and laughing.
When they saw the tense, drawn-crossbow stance of the few people ahead, they all stopped laughing.
"Immortal Sect disciples!"
"What a coincidence!"
The few showed expressions of delight.
Because on that Hidden Dragon Ranking, the Immortal Sect disciples were almost all only in the Lower Realm of Mountain Suppression.
Clearly just in the Lower Realm of Mountain Suppression, yet ranked so high and hogging the limelight—this had long made them very displeased.
And now they had run into them.
Perfect timing!
"Brothers, go! Let’s test these Immortal Sect disciples ranked in the top hundred!"
The few once again swarmed forward.
The five Immortal Sect disciples were startled, and had no choice but to open their Meridian Gates.
Bang—
Bang—
As the five opened their Meridian Gates,
the uniform display of the Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression made the few on the opposite side freeze.
How are they in the Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression?
They clearly remembered that the Immortal Sect disciples in the Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression were ranked extremely high on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, all within the top thirty.
The few of them immediately looked at one another, slowing their steps.
Then they heard an Immortal Sect disciple say helplessly, "I, Chen Min, am only ranked a bit over one hundred and thirty, why make things hard for me?"
"Go on, go on."
"The sooner we finish, the sooner we move on."
The other four echoed him.
Their opening moves were killing strikes!
All of them were Transformation Realm Vein Techniques!
The few on the opposite side were wiped out in an instant, without even a chance to fight back.
The gap was obvious at a glance!
For those at Peak Transformation Realm who didn’t understand Vein Techniques, this scene held only visual impact. It gave everyone a far deeper understanding of the Immortal Sect disciples’ power.
The Hidden Dragon Ranking, it seemed, was not made up nonsense.
The water in it was not as deep as they had imagined.
But for Si Haixian, who had already stepped into the Transformation Realm, this scene was extremely shocking.
"This..."
Si Haixian glanced incredulously at Wen Ping beside him.
Wen Ping just sat there calmly, with little expression on his face. Only when he noticed Si Haixian staring at him did he reply faintly, "What kind of expression is that? There’s nothing surprising about this. The Transformation Realm isn’t some impossible Realm to step into."
"In all the world, only you would say something like that."
Si Haixian sighed and turned his gaze back to the Floating Island.
They saw the Immortal Sect disciples, after expelling those few from the Floating Island, slowly approach that Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Technique, and then they heard a line spoken.
The words themselves were nothing special.
Anyone seeing an Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Technique would say the same.
"It’s actually a Gold Attribute Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Technique."
But the next moment, the actions of the few Immortal Sect disciples shocked everyone.
"Let’s go, let’s go, don’t look at it, it’s wasting our time." Chen Min just took one glance, then stepped away.
The other Immortal Sect disciples didn’t even look at it and swept straight past.
"Hey, that’s a Gold Attribute Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Technique!"
"What’s wrong with these Immortal Sect people?"
"Facing the Sect’s Treasure of a Five-star Giant Influence, how can they show that kind of expression?"
Countless spectators exclaimed again and again, unable to believe the scene before their eyes.
Prince Longyang and the others were the same.
Everyone’s expressions froze.
Si Haixian, sitting beside Wen Ping, couldn’t help glancing back at Huai Ye, who had spoken earlier. "Didn’t you say that was just children’s nonsense?"
What children’s nonsense?
What talking nonsense?
Who were they trying to fool?
When a little girl like Huai Ye said that, one might take it as a lie.
But how were they supposed to explain the scene on the Floating Island?
Would those prodigies who had already cultivated to the Middle Realm of Mountain Suppression joke around with an Earth Level Upper Grade School Vein Technique?
Seeing Si Haixian’s stunned gaze, Wen Ping had just been about to say something, but when he turned his head he saw over a hundred pairs of innocent, eager eyes. For a moment he really didn’t know what to say.
"Don’t look at me, maybe they just don’t like the Gold Attribute."
Wen Ping casually made up a reason.
Because he really couldn’t think of any other reason.
Then they heard Si Haixian sigh to Huai Ye, "Little girl, so you weren’t joking earlier. It’s my vision that was too narrow!"
(Anyone there?
See you tomorrow!)
