Chapter 193: Ruin Him? 180 Million Tael!

Chapter 193: Chapter 193: Ruin Him? 180 Million Tael!

The newcomer was a boy of fifteen or sixteen, dressed in luxurious clothes, his face as flawless as jade. At his waist hung a long jade-green sword inlaid with precious gemstones. His bearing was noble and imposing, while the sharp opening and closing of his eyes carried an air of unmatched arrogance, making it impossible to ignore his presence.

This young man was none other than Qi Guyun, the top-ranked disciple of the Xuanyuan Sect’s Outer Sect, and also a member of the Crown Prince Hall!

“Senior Brother Qi!”

The crowd hurriedly greeted him with utmost respect and deference.

Qi Guyun was not only the leading figure of the Xuanyuan Sect’s Outer Sect but also the cousin of Eighth Prince Jin Min of the Great Yue Dynasty, an identity held in high regard. His status within the Crown Prince Hall was equally significant.

Without expression, Qi Guyun chose a seat and sat down, lifting his eyes to Yan Qi before asking once again:

“If Luo Cheng advances to the Tongxuan Realm, what are your chances of defeating him?”

Feeling the weight of Qi Guyun’s question, Yan Qi exhaled deeply and confidently replied:

“I am but a step away from the Tongxuan Realm Second Layer. Even if he advances to the Tongxuan Realm, I am at least ninety percent confident of victory!”

A woman with peach blossom eyes frowned and said, “Luo Cheng advancing to the Tongxuan Realm? That’s not so fast! The Tongxuan Realm is the first major hurdle of martial cultivation. Awakening a Wasted Martial Soul, how could he possibly break through so easily?”

Qi Guyun cast a fleeting glance at her and said, “Indeed, he awakened a Wasted Martial Soul, yet he has also cultivated the Golden Body Realm—a feat unattained by anyone in the Great Yue Dynasty for the past hundred years.”

“This…”

The woman with peach blossom eyes was momentarily at a loss for words.

Qi Guyun continued, “In the battle between Luo Cheng and Jiang Xinglie, Jiang Xinglie was defeated not merely in physical prowess. A sect elder present told me that Luo Cheng’s Essence Energy has already reached the level of truth from falsehood, with extraordinary quality. That’s how he managed to defeat Jiang Xinglie with a single strike.”

“So that’s why!”

“No wonder he was able to defeat Ren Qian!”

The crowd came to sudden realization, their faces filled with shock.

Luo Cheng hadn’t been in the Outer Sect for long, yet he already had half a foot into the Tongxuan Realm!

The contemporaneous geniuses who awakened Advanced Martial Souls hadn’t advanced this quickly. It was astonishing, to say the least!

Qi Guyun said, “The fact that he dares to move the duel up by three days means he must have some reliance. He’s undoubtedly planning to use these three days to make an all-out effort to break into the Tongxuan Realm.”

Yan Qi smirked and said, “Senior Brother Qi, you don’t have to worry. The Tongxuan Realm isn’t something you can break through just because you want to! Besides, even if he truly advances to the Tongxuan Realm, it won’t matter—I’ll still defeat him!”

The towering Ren Xiaoguang snorted heavily and said, “As far as I’m concerned, why bother with all this trouble? Just find an opportunity over the next three days to cripple him once and for all! Over all these years, no one’s ever dared to go against our Crown Prince Hall!”

Ren Qian had been reduced to such a miserable state by Luo Cheng, and Ren Xiaoguang was so consumed with fury that he wanted nothing more than to rip Luo Cheng apart!

“Cripple him?”

Qi Guyun laughed coldly, “Who will go? You? If you think Yun Mengli’s warnings are nonsense, you’re welcome to try.”

“This…”

Ren Xiaoguang’s pupils contracted as he swallowed hard, a chill running through his heart.

Yun Mengli was audacious enough to kill elders with impunity. He couldn’t begin to imagine the consequences if Yun Mengli found out he’d acted against Luo Cheng.

“Enough. A mere waste is hardly worthy of complex scheming. Defeating him openly and honorably will suffice. Otherwise, we risk giving others reason to mock us, saying the Crown Prince Hall can’t even deal with a waste.”

Qi Guyun spoke again before standing and addressing Yan Qi, “This battle can only end in victory, not defeat! You must ensure nothing can go wrong. Follow me immediately—we’re heading to the Inner Sect.”

“Senior Brother Jin Min has already made the arrangements. Over the next three days, you will be assisted in igniting your Life Spirit Light and advancing to the Tongxuan Realm Second Layer! That way, regardless of whether Luo Cheng advances to the Tongxuan Realm, you will be invincible!”

“Thank you, Senior Brother Qi!”

Yan Qi was overjoyed.

Two months ago, he had already reached an advancement bottleneck but had been searching for the way forward. He hadn’t expected such an incredible opportunity.

“Heh heh! Luo Cheng, you should thank me! In three days, I’ll see what kind of waves you can make before me!”

Yan Qi clenched his fists tightly, his heart cold with arrogance.

After chatting with Gu Lingfeng for a moment, Luo Cheng said his goodbyes and left with Chen Lingyu.

On their way down the mountain, Luo Cheng said, “Senior Sister, I’ll need your help arranging for Gu Lingfeng and the others to settle on Qingxuan Peak.”

“You just focus on cultivating. Leave everything else to me,”

Chen Lingyu blinked her eyes and chuckled, “Don’t forget—I’ve bet a lot on you. Don’t let me lose it all, alright?”

“Of course.”

Luo Cheng nodded.

“Well then, I’ll take my leave.”

At the foot of the mountain, Chen Lingyu bid farewell and departed.

The commotion Luo Cheng caused by injuring Ren Qian and others still needed Chen Lingyu to handle.

Watching Chen Lingyu’s departing figure, Luo Cheng exhaled deeply.

With Gu Lingfeng and his companions’ matters sorted, Luo Cheng could fully devote himself to advancing to the Tongxuan Realm over the next three days!

Having already opened his Essence Energy Mansion and condensed an Essence Energy Vortex, he didn’t need to worry about hitting a bottleneck.

The only concern was whether he had prepared enough Spiritual Medicines and Spirit Pills.

Luo Cheng silently calculated his wealth.

When he returned to the sect, he had eight to nine million taels of silver. Completing sect missions had earned him an additional twenty-five million taels of rewards, bringing his total wealth to over 110 million taels.

Breaking into the Golden Body Realm had cost him more than 30 million taels. Yet afterward, he received 30 million taels worth of rewards from the Fifth Elder and his master, balancing the expense.

Including the 7,000 Essence Energy Pills from Senior Sister Chen Lingyu, Luo Cheng now possessed a total wealth exceeding 180 million taels!

180 million taels!

Such wealth was unimaginable for most Outer Sect disciples!

But Luo Cheng didn’t feel at ease.

Breaking into the Tongxuan Realm’s Third Layer, known as opening the Three Gates—Dantian Earthly Realm, Heart Life Gate, and the Divine Power Heavenly Gate—was the true mark of embarking onto cultivation’s divine path.

The First Layer, Dantian Earthly Realm, required a Transcendence Realm martial artist to use immense Essence Energy to push their physical body to its limits. Then, the Essence Energy would sink downward, opening the Essence Energy Mansion and forming a Dantian Energy Sea.

Ordinary Transcendence Realm martial artists required only two to three Bright Essence Pills and hundreds of Essence Energy Pills, with a total cost of one to two million taels, to advance.

But Luo Cheng couldn’t use them as points of reference.

Having cultivated the Golden Body Realm and pushed the True Dragon Technique to the Seventh Level, his physique rivaled, or even surpassed, that of Tongxuan Realm First Layer peak martial artists.

The amount of Essence Energy he could withstand was unfathomable, far beyond the capacity of ordinary Transcendence Realm peak martial artists.

“180 million taels, which means 18,000 Essence Energy Pills. That should suffice!”

Luo Cheng muttered to himself.

At this point, he could only give it his best shot!

Resolving his thoughts, Luo Cheng turned and headed toward the Outer Sect Hall.

At the Outer Sect Hall’s Dan Medicine Pavilion, Outer Sect disciples streamed in and out, purchasing Spiritual Medicines and Spirit Pills.

“Hmm? That’s Luo Cheng!”

“It really is him! They say he’ll have a life-and-death duel with Senior Brother Yan Qi at the Martial Arts Square in three days, yet he still has leisure to come here.”

“He’s probably here to buy some Spirit Pills. Unfortunately, there’s only three days left—no Spiritual Medicine or Spirit Pills will be of much use now. Nothing but a waste of resources.”

News of the duel in three days had already spread. Upon seeing Luo Cheng, surrounding Outer Sect disciples began whispering, with some showing signs of pity, while others wore mocking smiles.
