Start with a dragon egg and join the chat group

At this time, at the hand tractor competition.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh

Bajiao Zhenjun took the lead and rushed into the finish line area.

The next moment, ten thousand talismans appeared in the void, forming a huge talisman array at the finish line.

The Lord of the Seven Lives Palace was slightly pale, but his face was filled with excitement and anticipation. He rode his sword and soared into the air, hovering above the enormous talisman array, presiding over it.

For the Seven Lives Talisman Master, presiding over this grand formation was very energy-consuming, but it was also an immense opportunity for him.

Senior Bai has extremely high attainments in 'rune formations', and when the Seven Lives Rune Palace Master is presiding over this rune treasure formation, he can personally understand Senior Bai's understanding of runes.

During the process of presiding over the Talisman Treasure Array, the Seven Lives Talisman Master gained many insights.

Now, his mission of teaching the indigenous people Chinese characters, with the principle of "education for all," is almost complete.

Next, after the 'Hand-held Tractor Competition' ends, he will be able to trade the 'Blood God Diamond' with his friend Shuhang and then attempt to break through to the fifth-grade Spirit Emperor realm.

When he advances, he will be at least a Golden Core cultivator with seven dragon patterns or higher.

"Activate the formation!" He formed a hand seal and suddenly brought his palms together.

The myriad talisman array eventually transformed into a huge phantom stone gate, and when that stone gate appeared, it immediately gave people a sense of ancient times.

Even more strangely, when the cultivators present tried desperately to memorize the appearance of the stone gate, they simply couldn't remember it.

The stone gate rose, and in the next second, the Tyrant Dragon True Monarch, who maintained his first-place position, passed through the stone gate.

In an instant, a curtain of light descended from the stone gate, enveloping the Tyrant Flood Dragon True Monarch. The Tyrant Flood Dragon True Monarch first frowned slightly, then a look of surprise appeared in its eyes... Years ago, it had made a minor mistake while cultivating an ancient cultivation technique. Although not serious, it had never fully recovered. The Tyrant Flood Dragon True Monarch estimated that only after it advanced to the seventh-rank Venerable level could this minor ailment be completely cured.

But at this moment, under the light curtain of the stone gate, its minor ailment completely disappeared. Moreover, it felt its physique subtly strengthen.

"Is this a perk for champions?" Bajiao Zhenjun wondered to himself.

Then, it turned its head and found that the True Monarch Luochen, Master Tongxuan, and the Lord of the Snow Wolf Cave who had arrived next were also shrouded in a layer of light.

It seems that winning isn't just a privilege of champions?

Fellow Daoist Bai is truly generous! Tyrant Dragon True Monarch thought to himself.

Setting up such a grand array of myriad runes must require an unimaginable amount of rare and precious materials, right?

Only a special being like Fellow Daoist Bai could set up such a grand formation for a hand-held tractor race! ... Hmm, no! There's also Fellow Daoist Tianyu. I heard that every fellow Daoist in the participating group has a Tree of Life. Such a precious spiritual plant, besides Senior Bai, only he has it.

While she was pondering, Yu Rouzi overtook Beihe Sanren at the last moment and rushed into the finish line.

A beam of light also fell on Yu Rouzi.

Chapter 127 How Long Did It Take You to Reach Second Rank?

"Wow! That's amazing!" Yu Rouzi waved her little fist. "With this light, I immediately advanced a minor realm. Just one more minor realm and I can break through to the fourth-grade Innate Realm! Then I can fly on a sword, hehehe!"

After expressing her joy, Yu Rouzi waved vigorously to Beihe Sanren and said, "Senior Beihe Sanren, Fellow Daoist Yuegu Zhuo, thank you!"

She knew, of course, that in the end, it was the Beihe Sanren Group that let her have the fifth place spot.

Beihe Sanren smiled slightly, turned to look at Yue Gu Zhuo who was breaking through to the next dantian, and after confirming that there were no problems, he also began to enjoy the benefits brought by the light screen.

Subsequently, the Creation King, the South Lake Taoist, Guo Da, and others entered the finish line one after another.

The illusory stone gate was generous and unrestrained, with beams of light falling down as if they were free, covering every fellow cultivator who entered the finish line.

Then, with a calm and comfortable expression, the Drunken Moon Hermit group slowly drove the hand-operated tractor with the huge drill bit and the completely motion-sick and balding Young Master Extinction Phoenix rushed into the stone gate.

Similarly, three beams of light fell upon Mie Feng and Jushi.

The three began to enjoy the benefits of the 'Ten Thousand Talismans Array'.

Among them, Guanghua directly broke through from the first rank to the second rank.

"It really is true that everyone gets a share," Bajiao Zhenjun exclaimed. Zhenjun Qianli Zhaozhao responded to Fellow Daoist Bai's call to participate in this competition, and it was well worth it.

.............................

As each participant crossed the finish line, they were bathed in the light curtain hanging over the stone gate.

Finally, Senior White's tractor chugted and made its way to the finish line.

Several light curtains descended.

The light screen covering Lu Tianyu and Senior Bai flashed by in an instant... This level of body tempering had no effect on them at all, and they no longer needed such tempering.

Apart from Kanna and Thor, the rest of them were all cultivating in the light screen, including the Six Fairies of the East.

Thor stared at Xiaolin, who was focused on her cultivation, with a lovesick look on his face. He wanted to go up and rub against her, but he was afraid of disturbing Xiaolin's breakthrough, so he could only obediently sit on the side and stare at the increasingly beautiful Xiaolin.

Meanwhile, Kanna, inside the light screen, opened her small mouth, as if trying to see if she could swallow the light screen.

I want to taste whether this light is salty or bland.

At that moment, when Xiaolin, Song Shuhang, Lianhua, and Xiaoju's bodies came into contact with the stone gate's light curtain, they suddenly burst into a dazzling seven-colored crystal light.

Song Shuhang felt his true energy surging within his dantian.

That was the true qi cultivation of three 'Year Crystal Roots' gathered over a full 'nine years', filling Song Shuhang's dantian to its fullest.

The seven-colored crystal light on Song Shuhang, Lianhua, and the others was due to the burst of the medicinal power of the Time Crystal Root.

"Am I about to level up again?" Song Shuhang asked doubtfully, sensing the situation in his dantian. "Senior Bai, isn't this too fast? If I break through again, I'll have a Grade 2, Eighth Dantian?"

You have to eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time. He's only been cultivating for a little over a month and he's already about to reach the third rank!

“If it were before, I wouldn’t have recommended that you advance your minor realm. But now, since you went to the Sea Urchin Warrior Altar with young friend Tianyu, experienced battles there, and even experienced ‘Ultraman transformation’ at the Chu family, although the size is different, you still absorbed a lot of experience, so there’s absolutely no problem,” Senior Bai said with a slight smile.

As for Lianhua, Xiaolin, and Xiaoju, they have just broken through to the second rank and have the Spring of Life as a foundation, so there is absolutely no problem for them.

"It's a pity that your 'Thirty-Three Beasts Innate Qi Technique' is not yet complete, and that 'pseudo-innate true qi' has not yet taken shape... Otherwise, the effect of advancing would be even better. Hmm... Speaking of which, judging from the time, the 'Thirty-Three Beasts Innate Qi Technique' should have been completed by now." Senior Bai chuckled.

"Then, senior, I'll start leveling up!" Song Shuhang glanced at the people around him, then closed his eyes with peace of mind and began leveling up the next dantian.

...

...

With the medicinal power of the 'Crystal Root of Time' and the assistance of the 'Ten Thousand Talismans Array', Xiaolin, Lianhua, and the other two, whose cultivation levels were still low, quickly reached the critical point and broke through two minor cultivation levels to reach the Dragon Body Dantian.

She stood up and silently watched Song Shuhang, who was working hard to break through his current limitations.

At this moment, Song Shuhang, who advanced with his eyes closed, was being mercilessly watched by the seniors of the "Nine Provinces Number One Group" and everyone in the "Chat Group".

Beihe Sanren: "Is my young friend Shuhang advancing in rank at this moment?"

"Mm." Lu Tianyu nodded.

"Damn, he really is leveling up!" Beihe Sanren asked, "But young friend Tianyu, didn't Shuhang just advance in rank before? When you were cultivating on the Broken Immortal Platform, did you break through using the spiritual energy you cultivated with? How come you've broken through again so quickly?"

"It's like this," Senior White explained. "When Fellow Daoist Lingdie and I were building the racetrack, we were lucky enough to dig up a few 'Time Crystal Roots.' They were useless to me, so I gave a few to Shuhang and the others. The Time Crystal Roots accelerated the operation of this Myriad Talisman Array, which allowed them to meet the requirements for advancement. So, I let them take this opportunity to try their luck at advancing."

It was only then that Beihe Sanren noticed that Lianhua and the others had also broken through two realms.

Beihe Sanren looked up at the sky and sighed softly.

The wandering cultivator recalled the bitter experiences he had when he first entered the world of cultivation.

Life is like this... Is this the difference between 'someone else's life' and 'your own life'?

The Creation King leaned closer and asked, "Old Beihe, how long did it take you to advance to the second rank back then?"

“Eight years. You know I was a rogue cultivator back then. It took me several years just to get that body-tempering fluid, and I almost gave up all my possessions. After that, I advanced through the ranks and had many fortuitous encounters. I also befriended Su Shi Aqi, who was traveling abroad back then. But it still took me a full eight years to break through from the first rank to the second rank,” Beihe Sanren recalled.

"Then, how long did it take you to advance from the second rank to a minor realm?" the Creation Dharma King asked.

"More than two years. Back then, I worked at 'Fahua Temple' for more than a year to get a batch of pills needed for the upgrade." Beihe Sanren felt his eyes getting a little moist.

Being a rogue cultivator is tough. Without a sect or faction, you're basically unwanted and neglected in the cultivation world—a miserable existence. Sometimes, to earn money for pills, you have to team up and do odd jobs at various sects.

"Sigh, I'm about the same. It took me about two and a half years," said the Creation Dharma King. Although he was a senior disciple of a prestigious sect, his cultivation method was special, and advancing to the "True Body of the Battle Buddha" was particularly difficult.

"I spent a day, or rather half a day, with the other half spent watching the competition. I also managed to break through to the third rank while doing so," Lu Tianyu recalled from the side.

"Brother, it took me half a month!" Lianhua thought for a moment and said. She had reached the peak of the first rank at Lu Tianyu's birthday banquet, and only broke through to the second rank a few days ago after cultivating the "Thirty-Three Beast God Technique". Now she has the third dantian of the second rank.

“I’m just like Lianhua,” Kobayashi and Komari said.

“Hmm…” Koshigaya Taku nodded.

"I broke through in just one day," Guanghua said, scratching his head.

Senior citizen from Kyushu No. 1: "..................."

Chapter 128 - Four-Character Daoist Title

The seniors looked at Lu Tianyu and his group, as well as Song Shuhang, who was radiating a seven-colored light, and sighed in unison.

These people advanced from Rank 1 to Rank 2 in less than two months, and Shuhang is about to reach the peak of Rank 2.

As for Lu Tianyu, surely no one would actually consider him a third-grade minor cultivator?

At this moment, Song Shuhang also completed his breakthrough. He was only one rank away from breaking through to the third rank after he established the Dragon Head Dantian. He stood up and looked at the many seniors gathered around him. Why did they all look so envious and amazed?

The seniors looked at Song Shuhang, who was completely bewildered. Perhaps it wasn't just that Senior Bai had overwhelming luck, but that young friend Song Shuhang himself also had an extraordinary level of luck.

...

...

The first round of the hand-held tractor race finally came to an end after Song Shuhang made a breakthrough.

Afterwards, the seniors began to hold an awards ceremony.

Spirit Butterfly Venerable and Whirlwind Venerable secured all the prizes for the 'Hand-held Tractor Race,' while Senior White personally funded the setup of the 'Ten Thousand Talisman Array.' As for Lu Tianyu's personal sponsorship of the entry prizes, those were only for the seniors of the Kyushu Number One Group.

Although the participants in the first competition were all seniors from the Kyushu No. 1 Group, Bajiao Zhenjun had also joined the Kyushu No. 1 Group before participating in the competition.

The medals for Venerable Spirit Butterfly and Venerable Whirlwind are the same as those for ordinary people; the medals are divided into gold, silver, and bronze.

However, since these three medals came from the hands of two venerable figures, they are naturally not ordinary.

The gold medal is made of the rare material 'refined gold', and this material alone is worth a thousand sixth-grade spirit stones.

Sealed within is a rune of the Spirit Butterfly Venerable, which, in a crucial moment, allows the user to unleash the 'Butterfly Wind Transformation' sword technique. That is a Venerable-level strike, with immense power.

If the Tyrant Dragon True Lord himself doesn't need the gold medal, he can give it to one of his children as a life-saving measure. After all, he has quite a few children.

Both the silver and bronze medals were made by the Whirlwind Venerable, using the same precious refining materials.
