In midair, the elder appeared bitter.
His right hand collapsed down helplessly. His blood was mixed with his flesh and he shook uncontrollably.
At once, the entire place silenced.
All gazes were fixated on the severely injured right hand. Everyone’s face was full of shock. Then, everyone began to gasp.
“Unbelievable, this powerful elder’s hand was injured just now?”
“How terrifying of a physique, how horrifying of a capability. That was merely one punch and the elder from the Palace of Heaven’s Favorites couldn’t stop it?”
“Too powerful. Not only did he make the elder retreat, the elder is injured!”
Everyone was in awe. All gazes were now on Ling Xian with disbelief.
The other two elders were shocked at this as well.
The physique at the peak of the original level means it isn’t hard to force the elder to retreat. It also isn’t shocking. However, for the elder’s arm to be tangled up like this was unbelievable.
Therefore, everyone once again fell into disbelief. They were truly shocked!
“Elder, you don’t need to expose yourself before the others.”
Ling Xian shook his head. He didn’t care what others say, which was why he never said he had injured the elder as well.
He didn’t expect the elder would show his right hand to everyone.
“Losing is losing. Though being forced to retreat is night and day to being injured, that is what happened. Why should I hide or deny?”
The elder exclaimed, “The new waves push away the old waves. You are way more powerful than I was when I was your age.”
“Elder, you have flattered me.” Ling Xian waved his hand, his expression was collected and calm.
The elder looked even more impressed at this, “Another black horse has joined the competition this year.”
Hearing this, Ling Xian smiled and changed the subject, “I wonder if I passed the test?”
“You injured me in one move. If I do not let you pass, I would be purposely giving you a hard time.”
The elder smiled faintly. “Go in. But remember, do not enter the sealed down area or else you will endanger your life.”
Hearing this, Ling Xian’s expression turned serious. He knows that the elder is warning him. Therefore, he paid his respect and went into the palace.
Huang Jiu Ge did the same.
Perhaps it was because he wanted to give Ling Xian face, the elder didn’t stop her. After all, Huang Jiu Ge was yet at the original level and technically didn’t qualify.
The moment Ling Xian stepped over the door, he felt himself getting dizzy – as if he had entered a different universe.
After he opened his eyes, he saw a scenic place with water, mountains, birds, and flowers. Then, a cold statement rung beside his ear.
“Cultivate here for a year. Then, head to the world center Heaven’s Favorite Battle Ring.”
Hearing this, Ling Xian smiled. “Just like Wu Dao Zi had said, everyone who enters cultivates for a year before starting the competition.”
“Then, this place is the mysterious place inside the Palace of Heaven’s Favorites. In other words, the Nirvana Fountain is likely here.”
Remembering the fountain that can transform his Qi, Ling Xian felt passionate, “Jiu Ge, can you use your blood to try and see if the Nirvana Fountain is here?”
“I can try.”
Huang Jiu Ge’s eyes were heated. The Nirvana Fountain impacts her a lot and can transform her into a pure-blooded phoenix. Therefore, she had high expectation as well.
“Using blood as a lure, search!”
Shouting, Huang Jiu Ge formed a hand seal. A drop of gold blood dripped down from her fingertip and landed on the ground.
Immediately, a ring of red light expanded, sending out strange and magnetic energy.
Ling Xian had high expectations about this. He hoped that he would be able to hear the answer he wants to hear from Jiu Ge.
After some time, Huang Jiu Ge opened her eyes. Joy flickered on her face. What she said excited Ling Xian.
“Master, I cannot be certain whether or not this place actually has the Nirvana Fountain, but I felt a real phoenix’s blood.”
Ling Xian smiled at this, “It is the Nirvana Fountain for sure. Or else there wouldn’t be real phoenix’s blood.”
“That’s right. It looks like the Nirvana Fountain was brought here.” Huang Jiu Ge smiled brightly, extremely happy at this.
“What about the exact location? Did you sense anything?” Ling Xian asked a key question.
Though he hasn’t explored this mysterious place, he could feel that this place is edgeless and is basically its own unique universe. If he aimlessly searches, it is hard to tell when he will be able to find it.
“I can sense the general direction and where the blood scent is the densest.” Huang Jiu Ge was very certain.
“Then let’s go.” Ling Xian smiled, revealing a joyous smile.
If he can find the Nirvana Fountain, he will be able to transform his Qi successfully. When that happens, he will truly possess the ability to compete with top Heaven’s Favorites!
“Master, come up.”
Huang Jiu Ge grinned and after Ling Xian hopped on, she flapped around his wings and headed in the southeast direction.
However, after a while, she had to stop.
Before them was a frozen pond. In the center of it were three icy blue lotus flowers that were fluttering in the wind. They exuded much cold energy and everything within a hundred miles froze into ice.
The Frozen Lotus!
Legendary heavenly medicine!
On top of the pond, four human-formed silhouettes were tackling each other. Every single time they clashed, an extremely powerful vibration pulsed and cracked the space.
It was obvious that everyone was extremely powerful here.
Because of this, Huang Jiu Ge was forced to stop.
“Three Frozen Lotuses, no wonder these people are fighting.” Ling Xian’s eyes flickered, he was tempted.
After all, this was a rare heavenly medicine with naturally terrifying cold energy. There were also three of them, anyone would be tempted.
So, he decided to meddle.
“Jiu Ge, retreat and hide, just in case the battle fires get you.” Ling Xian grinned. Without another word, he tore apart space.
When he reappeared, he was on top of the lotuses. The Flame of Purity shot out from his right hand and headed towards the three icy blue Frozen Lotuses.
This medicine is naturally cold and is extremely terrifying. Even with his level of capability, he felt his body getting cold when he got closer.
He needed to use the Flame of Purity against the medicine’s coldness. Or else he would turn into an ice sculpture.
Under the energy of the flames, the coldness evaporated by a lot. However, just as he was about grab onto the lotuses, four separate attacks dropped down from the sky.
Without exception, they were all powerful!
Ling Xian sighed silently and had to give up the lotuses. It wasn’t that he cannot handle the attacks, it was that if he pushed for it, he would be heavily wounded.
So he was destined to have to give up on the Frozen Lotuses.
Therefore, in a flash, Ling Xian scooted away. Then, he felt four cold gazes land on him.
