If the sect doesn't accept geniuses, they will become giants once they leave?

Chapter 101: The inheritance of the Eight Desolations, the emperor of the Eight Desolations

Considering that the majority of the contestants in this Qianzhou competition are cultivators in the Qi training realm, and many of them have only cultivation but not much practical experience.

In order to encourage the Qi training monks not to give up, all the competitions in the Qi training realm were adjusted to sports events, and only the basic foundations were tested.

This indeed made many Qi-cultivating cultivators see the possibility of winning, and they were all very motivated. However, what was waiting for them were the disciples of Qingshan Sect, who had all eaten spiritual fruits, and might not have had good talent, but their foundation was very solid.

With the same level of cultivation, the disciples of Qingshan Sect are superior to the disciples of other sects in terms of endurance, output, and ability to control the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

After several rounds of competition, Qingshan Sect's points were so high that other aristocratic sects only had to consider competing for second place.

Many aristocratic families became jealous and began to discuss in a low voice whether to send the subsequent fresh blood of the aristocratic families to Qingshan Sect.

Many of them were still secretly looking at Miao Wujiang, some with pity, some with ridicule.

The other aristocratic families in Qianzhou were distant from the Qingshan Sect and had no conflicts with it. However, the Miao family, which was supposed to be close to the Qingshan Sect, had fallen out with it due to a series of events.

Miao Wujiang remained calm and even smiled contemptuously.

Now that his Miao family has the support of Tianxu Tower, the position of King Qian is already in their Miao family's pocket. There is no need for him to covet the Qingshan Sect's few cultivation resources.

Miao Wujiang said calmly, "Qianqian, you must perform well in this competition. You must not lose face for Tianxu Tower."

Miao Qianqian, who was sitting cross-legged with her eyes closed, slowly opened her eyes, a gleam of light flashing in them, "Dad, I am now in the middle stage of foundation building and only one step away from the late stage. With the skills I got from Tianxu Tower, I am confident that I can hold my own even if I reach the false elixir realm."

Hearing this, Miao Wujiang nodded with satisfaction.

The training facilities and techniques in Tianxu Tower are really expensive, but they are truly worth the price. Not only is the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the training ground so dense that it is almost turning into liquid, but every book of techniques is also embossed in gold. Just by looking at the name, you can tell that they are invincible.

Soon the Qianzhou competition came to the foundation-building group. Compared with the lively Qi-training group, the foundation-building group seemed much more desolate in terms of the number of people. There were only more than a hundred foundation-building cultivators in the entire Qianzhou, and more than half of them were elders and sect masters in the sect. Among the remaining small half, most of them were heads and cadres of various families. Only a small number were disciples of the younger generation.

When it comes to the Golden Core and Nascent Soul stages, the number of people is even smaller. As for the God Transformation stage, the only sects that openly have cultivators at the God Transformation stage are Chongshan Sect and Qingshan Sect.

In order to facilitate the counting of points, a ring system is adopted. The longer you defend the ring, the higher the rating of the monks you knock down, and the more points you get.

The first to start the fight were the leaders of Liushui Sect and Huosang Sect. Both of them were in the middle stage of foundation building. The total number of people in the sect was only more than a hundred, and most of them were in the Qi training stage. It might be more appropriate to call them a gang rather than a sect.

Seeing Li Yanmo's strange expression, Leng Ningshuang, who had come to join in the fun as a playboy, began to explain, "The Dao Sect allocates funds every year. In order to obtain more funds, some sects will allocate some people to establish new sects in other places. This behavior can also expand the sect's influence more subtly, so the Dao Sect tacitly approves such behavior."

Li Yanmo suddenly realized and silently wrote down the operation in his small notebook, thinking it might be useful in the future.

The battle between the leader of Liushui Sect and the leader of Huosang Sect was extremely exciting. The two men, with similar cultivation levels, were like a water baby and a fire baby, one spitting fire and the other spitting water, and their endings were equally exciting.

One sprays water until he becomes dehydrated, and the other sprays fire, causing all the water in his body to evaporate and he becomes dehydrated.

Because the leader of the Huosang Sect was dehydrated first, the leader of the Liushui Sect won.

Just as Li Yanmo was marveling at the vastness of the world, a horrible scream rang out. A sect leader in the Foundation Establishment stage was thrown from the arena, spitting blood. He struggled to raise his hand and pointed at the black-robed figure on the arena, as if he wanted to say something, but due to the severity of his injuries, he collapsed to the ground, spitting blood. At the same time, a radiant glow filled the arena. A phantom, emanating the power of unrivaled dominance, appeared and, with a single palm strike, sent a veteran Foundation Establishment stage leader flying. Many Nascent Soul stage sect leaders were drawn to the phantom, their eyes flickering with strange lights. Even the Taoist envoy, Hong Chang, was surprised.

"Eight Desolate Emperor?! This Qianzhou actually has the Eight Desolate inheritance!?"

Hong Chang's voice was not loud, but as a Taoist envoy, her every move was closely watched, and this exclamation was naturally heard by everyone. Miao Qianqian stood proudly on the stage, and Miao Wujiang, who was sitting in the audience, raised his chin proudly and glanced in the direction of other families.

This is the confidence that Tianxu Tower gave him!
"Emperor of the Eight Desolations?"

The elders of Qingshan Sect were all curious. Hong Chang snorted and explained with her hands behind her back.

"At the founding of the Great Yu Dynasty, an unrivaled powerhouse appeared. He called himself the Eight Desolate Emperor. While ordinary Tribulation Crossing cultivators can only nurture one world, the Eight Desolate Emperor nurtured eight different worlds and stitched them together to form the Eight Desolate Land we know today!"

"Each realm has its own phase. Legend has it that the Eight Desolate Emperor has eight incarnations, and the Eight Desolate Emperor phases summoned by the Eight Desolate inheritance are the phantom images of those eight incarnations. Legend has it that if someone can summon the eight phantom images, they can summon the legendary ninth phase of the Eight Desolate Emperor, his true form!"

"A single strike from this avatar possesses the might of the Nine Realms! No one below the level of an Immortal can withstand it!"

When Hong Chang said this, everyone exclaimed in surprise and looked at Miao Qianqian with envy.

Leng Ningshuang had a strange look on her face.

As soon as he saw Leng Ningshuang's expression, Li Yanmo knew that Miao Qianqian might have bought the gold-stamping technique that was a specialty of the Dayu Dynasty.

"What kind of technique is this? Could it be someone...using eight pseudonyms?"

"This... has to start with a genius in geography," Leng Ningshuang raised a finger and shook her head as she explained. "At that time, the Dayu Dynasty had just risen to power, and the remnants of the Great Shun Dynasty joined forces with eight Tribulation-crossing cultivators from an ancient sect in an attempt to reshape the entire land."

"At the time, that scholar had spent decades mapping the entire geography of the universe. Just as he was about to complete it, this terrible incident occurred. Furious, he revealed his true identity and, posing as the Emperor of Eight Desolations, tore apart the eight Tribulation Crossing Stage cultivators. He then shot down the realms they had incubated, pieced them together, and named it the Land of Eight Desolations."

"And once this Eight Desolate Emperor reaches great perfection through cultivation..."

"That's all?"

"You can see how those eight Tribulation Crossing cultivators were beaten to death. That scholar from the underground world really hated those eight people and vowed to let everyone know how badly they were beaten. So he created the Eight Desolate Inheritance." Leng Ningshuang raised her hand and patted Li Yanmo's shoulder. "It's quite exciting. If you think you have too much time, you can practice it for fun. But it's not without practical value. Before you can fully master it, you can summon the phantoms of the eight Tribulation Crossing cultivators. When you gather all eight phantoms, you will attract the furious Eight Desolate Emperor Shadows. All you have to do is drag the enemies into the Eight Desolate Emperor Shadows when they beat up the eight Tribulation Crossing phantoms."

Li Yanmo tilted his head back slightly and glanced at Miao Qianqian, who was controlling the Eight Desolate Emperor to fight with other veteran Foundation Establishment Stage masters. "It seems to me that the power is quite strong."

"That's natural. A world has already been nurtured during the Tribulation Crossing Stage. Death alone cannot erase the traces of their existence. Moreover, the world they nurtured is still within the Eight Desolations, so their will still exists. They can sense when someone summons their phantom through the Eight Desolations inheritance."

"In order to avoid everyone seeing them being beaten up by the Eight Desolate Emperor, they will do their best to avoid having to summon the Eight Desolate Emperor."

Leng Ningshuang put her hands behind her head and said, "Aren't you going to defend the ring? With your ability, the Qianzhou Foundation Establishment cultivators can't be your opponents. This is a good opportunity to test the strength of a normal Foundation Establishment cultivator."

Li Yanmo thought about it and felt that this was the truth, so he jumped into the air and stood on a stage.
