A life of clearness

Chapter 196 Deception
"The former are like slaves for the Venerable Realm. If we don't have the background of the Venerable Realm, we, the outer cultivators, will have to do some dangerous and hard work. If we want to enter the core of the power, we don't know how many years we have to endure."

“But the sequence is different. Once you become a sequence, you will directly enter the core of the Venerable Realm. Not only will you save thousands of years, but you can also receive the Venerable Realm’s dedicated training.”

"The Sequence Highness that the forest ranger mentioned earlier is also meditating in the Forest of Ten Thousand Dharmas. With his status, he is not only protected by powerful beings, but also has many privileges in the Forest of Ten Thousand Dharmas. We can only meditate for three years, and the number of places is limited and everyone is competing for it. But for the Sequence Highness, he can come whenever he wants and stay as long as he wants. This is just one of the insignificant benefits of being the Sequence Highness."

“Becoming a Sequence can be said to be a step to heaven. However, it is not something that can be achieved just by thinking about it.” Liu Qiancui’s eyes flashed with gloom as she talked about this. “What the Venerable Realm wants is the number one prodigy among all the heavens and myriad worlds. Therefore, the competition for this Sequence is open to all cultivators in the heavens and myriad worlds who have reached the stage of Divine Transformation or the ninth stage of Divine Transformation.”

"Since everyone can participate, what does the quota have to do with it?"

"Of course this quota is important." Liu Qiancui said solemnly. "Although it is open to all the gods in the heavens and myriad worlds, the number of gods is huge. The number of gods in Xuanfeng Realm alone has reached nearly one billion. This is just Xuanfeng Realm. There are tens of thousands of other spirit realms that have not been counted. The strength of our Xuanfeng Realm is not outstanding among the many spirit realms. And the number of gods in Zun Realm itself is even more terrifying."

Nearly a billion?!

Hearing this number, Rong Qing managed to keep her face straight and not distort it.

In the Mother Realm, it takes a while for a few Divine Transformation cultivators to appear, but in the Spirit Realm, they are counted in the billions. This difference is too terrifying.

No wonder the Xuanfeng Realm cultivators have always been high and mighty, looking down on the Mother Realm, calling them lowly cultivators. With such resources and background, it is hard not to feel proud.

But even with such a mysterious world, Liu Qiancui still said that it was not outstanding among the many spiritual worlds. What was the outstanding spiritual world strength? Even the strength from the Supreme Realm God?
Rong Qing suddenly didn't dare to think about it. But she had already decided in her heart that she must participate in this sequence competition!
She needed to have an accurate understanding of her own strength. She couldn't become complacent and stagnate just because she had a little luck.

Where does she rank among all the worlds?
Liu Qiancui continued, "It would be a waste of time if such a large number of Divine Beings were to compete against each other one by one. Therefore, according to the rules of previous sequence competitions, all Divine Beings from every hundred spiritual worlds are gathered together, and a certain turbulent flow is selected as the battlefield. Under the notarization of many powerful seniors, everyone is allowed to fight each other in the battlefield until the number of people is reduced to the number they need."

"Generally speaking, this initial screening is to select one out of a hundred. In this way, the number of people who enter the battlefield with a hundred spirit realms jointly supplying the God Transformation is about ten billion, and only one hundred million can come out alive. The number of people will fluctuate every session, but the fluctuation range is very small, and this number can basically be determined."

“In a chaotic battlefield with hundreds of millions of incarnations fighting together, who would dare to be arrogant? Who would dare to say that they would definitely come out alive?” Liu Qiancui shook her head. “In addition to the Dao of the Five Elements, there are many rare but extremely powerful Daos. In addition, there are all kinds of strange treasures. Even the most talented cultivator might stumble.”

"In this case, quotas come into being. Each spirit world can be allocated a number of quotas. With these quotas, you can directly enter the next round of selection without entering the battlefield."

"As far as I know, the number of places that the Yan family can get is no more than ten fingers, and the disciples in the family are extremely jealous. The ancestor is willing to exchange this place, which is really sincere."

"Xiao Cui'er is right," said the Yan clan ancestor, "This is the best offer I can make. If you are still unwilling, then I can do nothing more."

Xiao Cui'er... Liu Qiancui tightened her grip on the jade flute, and the corners of her mouth twitched. This name is really disgusting. If it was someone with a lower level of cultivation than her, I'm afraid she would go up and beat the other person's head off if she heard it.

After hearing the ultimatum from the Yan family's ancestor, Rong Qing had to think about it.

"If what she said is true, then this quota is indeed very important." Rong Qing's eyes flickered, "Then from the perspective of value, are the quota that is guaranteed to pass the preliminary selection and the Eternal Thunder comparable?" Perhaps in the eyes of the Yan family's ancestor, a guaranteed quota of Eternal Thunder is more important than a quota that can only be guaranteed to pass the preliminary selection.

The younger generation he was most optimistic about was Yan Wuji. This preliminary selection spot must be reserved for Yan Wuji, and with the Eternal Thunder, Yan Wuji's strength will increase again, which will also be of great benefit to the subsequent selection.

For Rong Qing, the preliminary selection was more important than the Eternal Thunder because she was using the Eternal Thunder to be devoured by the Great Destruction Thunder. If she didn't devour the Eternal Thunder, she still had other options, such as finding other natural treasures that would have the same effect.

But the preliminary selection quota was different. Without connections, even if you had the resources, you couldn't get it. This was something that only the ancestors of the clan could exchange for. If Rong Qing missed this opportunity, it would be difficult to find another chance to get this quota.

but……

While Rong Qing was feeling excited, she also became suspicious.

"If they hadn't mentioned this sequence competition, I wouldn't have known anything. This move seems to be that they can't wait to force the quota on me. I'm a cultivator from the Mother Realm, and I don't have much experience. It would be more cost-effective for them to lure me with benefits and give me some magic weapons and other things to coax me. Is there a trick here?"

If there is a fraud, what are they going to do?
"It seems like you guys are very optimistic about me." Rong Qing chuckled to herself, "With my limited ability, what's the big deal if I escaped the preliminary selection? Compared to those geniuses who only got one in a hundred, I'm afraid I'll lose even more miserably and ugly. Haha."

"Because, fellow Daoist, you are the most special person I have ever met." It was Liu Qiancui who answered.

Not powerful, not gifted, but special...

Rong Qing didn't have time to think deeply about the meaning of these words, but suddenly found an illusory flame appearing in her mind.

It suddenly appeared there, next to the four Tao seeds.

this……?
Rong Qing's eyes suddenly widened. She seemed to understand why the ancestor of this clan had gone through so much trouble to cross the world and why he was so kind to her!

The mind, the sea of ​​consciousness, the body... in just a flash, the speed at which this illusory flame spread was astonishing!

Rong Qing saw Liu Qiancui's surprised eyes and the moaning and distorted figure in the other's pupils.

Countless illusory flames emerged from Rong Qing's body, erupting from her hair, seven orifices, and skin, instantly engulfing her in the translucent, swaying flames.
