Invincible Uncle-Grandmaster Novel - Chapter 193
Chapter 193: Sacred Artifact City
There were many factions and clans in the Profound Mysteries Realm and the total territory was not inferior to the Spirit Central World at all.
As the strongest region, the Eastern Region contained a total of three super factions and nine top factions.
Among the three super factions were the Demi-Immortal Institute, the Seven Stars Palace, and the Hanging Tower.
The first to discover the spatial rift was the faction nearest to the Far East, the Demi-Immortal Institute.
In the Profound Mysteries Realm, the Demi-Immortal Institute was not only incomparably powerful, but also a respected holy land in the hearts of many cultivators.
The reason was simple. There were countless experts who had come from the Demi-Immortal Institute, and they were scattered throughout the entire Profound Mysteries Realm. Some of them had already become powerful and dependable beings of the realm, and were renowned throughout the world.
In addition, according to the ancient records, the Demi-Immortal Institute was the source of cultivation.
All of the cultivation techniques that the cultivators of the Profound Mysteries Realm cultivated were basically related to the Demi-Immortal Institute. They were either passed down from the institute, or they were created based on the cultivation techniques of the institute.
In any case, the Demi-Immortal Institute was considered to be very important.
Basically, anyone that had power in this realm was pretty much considered to be a disciple of the Demi-Immortal Institute. Under such circumstances, who would dare disrespect the Demi-Immortal Institute?
In fact, by the time the Demi-Immortal Institute discovered the spatial rift, most places in the Far East were already reduced to ruins.
Caught off guard, experts from the Demi-Immortal Institute were forced to retreat again and again, and the Asura World Army even got close to expanding past the Far East.
Fortunately, the Demi-Immortal Institute reacted quickly. After realizing the seriousness of the situation, they immediately led their experts here to stop the Asura World Army in its tracks.
Because of the importance of the matter, the Demi-Immortal Institute didn’t hide the news from the other two super factions.
Thus, the Seven Star Palace and the Hanging Tower joined the battlefield one after another and also began fighting the Asura World Army.
At their level, the people in charge of these super factions were already old monsters that had lived for thousands of years. They were not idiots so how could they not understand the principle of unity at a time like this?
Moreover, wherever the Asura World Army passed, lives would be lost and the land would become barren.
If they did not fight back, then what awaited them would only be death.
As the three super factions fought alongside each other, the Asura World Army was suddenly unable to fight back and was defeated.
Just as the three super factions were about to defeat the Asura World Army in one go and close the spatial rift, more Asura World experts suddenly appeared. For a time, even the three super factions were unable to resist!
Therefore, three months ago, the nine top factions had also joined the war one after another. Unfortunately, it was still difficult for them to win.
Now, the three super factions had no choice but to issue a summons to gather all the cultivators in the world. It could be seen how tense the situation was.
“The camp set up by the resisting factions of the Profound Mysteries Realm is up ahead.”
Su Li pointed at a city in the distance.
This city was blue-grey in color. Runes circulated around it, and it was densely packed. It looked exceptionally sturdy and did not look like it was a temporary settlement.
As if seeing Qin Jue’s confusion, Su Li explained, “This city is actually a quasi-sacred artifact of the Demi-Immortal Institute. It was used because of the urgent situation of the battle.”
Qin Jue’s face was full of surprise. Such a large quasi-sacred artifact?
Speaking of which, Qin Jue also had a quasi-sacred artifact in his storage ring, and it was from the Asura World. However, compared to this city in front of him, the difference between the two quasi-sacred artifacts was like the difference between heaven and earth.
“Stop right there, identify yourselves!”
Before they could approach the city, several female cultivators dressed in armor and with grave expressions flew over to stop the two.
“I’m an itinerant cultivator who came to help after seeing the summoning order.” Su Li said indifferently.
With her peak Supreme Stage cultivation, she might not be of much use in this war, but she would still not be chased away.
“What about him?”
The female cultivator in the lead looked at Qin Jue and frowned. “You actually brought a man here. What are you doing here?”
Qin Jue :”…”
Were men not allowed on the battlefield?
Hearing this, Qin Jue’s body trembled. His entire body was covered in cold sweat on a hot day, and his limbs were cold.
It seemed that true evil resided in the human realm and not in hell. When is this world going to become a better place?
How should us men live in order to satisfy you women? Why are these tears falling… Uh, never mind the tears.
“He’s my friend and also wants to help.”
After a moment of hesitation, Su Li said.
“No, he’s too weak.”
The female cultivator in the lead shook her head in refusal.
In their opinion, Qin Jue seemed so thin and weak that they thought he was at most an Earth Stage expert. If so, he simply didn’t have the qualifications to participate in this war.
Qin Jue couldn’t be bothered to waste his breath. He raised his hand and punched the distant hill.
Boom!
Rocks flew everywhere. A few breaths later, a kilometer-long gully appeared in front of everyone, and the mountain was flattened.
“…”
The female cultivator in the lead blinked her eyes, somewhat at a loss.
Everyone was puzzled.
Not only her, but the other cultivators were also dumbfounded, including Su Li.
“Can we go in now?”
Qin Jue retracted his fist and said indifferently.
“S-Sure.”
The female cultivator in the lead nodded, still unable to react.
Qin Jue didn’t care what the other party thought and directly flew towards the city not far away.
“Wait.”
Su Li suddenly woke up and chased after Qin Jue in disbelief. “Did you throw that punch just now?”
“Obviously?”
“If you’re so powerful, why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
Su Li blushed and suddenly remembered that she had tried to protect Qin Jue yesterday.
With the strength Qin Jue had displayed just now, why would he need her protection?
“You never asked me.”
Qin Jue said matter-of-factly.
Uh… that did seem to be the case.
Su Li thought for a moment and was speechless.
From the beginning, she had assumed that Qin Jue was very weak. Only now did she realize that she wasn’t able to see through Qin Jue’s cultivation from the beginning. If he was weaker than her, how could she not see through his cultivation?
After figuring this out, Su Li opened her mouth and could not help but ask, “Then what stage are you at?”
“I don’t know.”
Su Li :”…”
Alright, forget it!
In fact, Qin Jue really didn’t know, but he was certain that he wasn’t within the scope of the ten realms of the Great Void Stage.
After another round of inspection, the two of them finally entered the city. The first thing they saw were many cultivators coming and going. Each of them was above the Heaven Stage, and even Supreme Stage and Legendary Stage cultivators could be seen everywhere.
Countless high-level cultivators had gathered here. There were experts from the three great super factions and cultivators from the nine top factions, as well as itinerant cultivators from other middle-tier factions.
In short, there were at least a hundred thousand cultivators in this quasi-sacred artifact city, and most of them were women. There were very few men.
Therefore, after Qin Jue appeared, he immediately became the focus of everyone’s attention.
Qin Jue was more or less used to this kind of gaze.
Under the female guard’s lead, Qin Jue and Su Li quickly arrived outside a courtyard.
Due to the seriousness of the situation, all the factions and itinerant cultivators who saw the summons for this war were temporarily arranged to live in the city to avoid being suddenly attacked by the Asura World Army.
Qin Jue and Su Li were naturally no exception.
