Legend of Swordsman - Chapter 5781
5781 Sky Lantern
Fang Tianfeng’s position in the Flame God Kingdom was second only to the Divine Spirit, the Flame God.
This status demanded respect even from the current Lord of the Shi Kingdom.
As Fang Tianfeng entered the grand hall, she casually scanned around before finding a scat.
Her demeanor and attitude exuded an air of superiority.
Jian Wushuang couldn’t help but feel a twinge of envy.
In his heart, he couldn’t help but sigh, “If only I had half her charm!”
The thought of her soon heading to the spacetime river where the Qishen Temple was located made him envious.
Reincarnation was truly an art.
Obviously, he wasn’t very successful in this aspect.
He wondered how the others were faring.
Hu Qing had warned him not to go to the Ancient Moon Ruins.
But enough about Fang Tianfeng.
What about the others?
Jian Wushuang took a deep breath.
Perhaps the luck of the others was also good.
Under the operation of the supreme law rules, they might all have bright futures.
Wu Zuo and the others were not lacking in talent.
With a little entry into some major powers, they could become geniuses.
Becoming the Universe Master wasn’t difficult.
It was just hard to find.
Ilis current reputation only circulated in the Ancient Wood Continent and didn’t affect the entire realm.
But it would soon change; he was about to make a name for himself in the Ancient Moon.
Once the Wanliu was unlocked, his reputation would surely skyrocket.
At that time, if the others were doing well, they could also seek refuge.
However, he didn’t know that the others might not be doing as well as him,
For example, Wu Zuo.
At this moment, he was trapped in the Wu Hua Secret Realm.
And he encountered unprecedented difficulties.
In this dilemma, he also unexpectedly met a truly influential figure!
..
“Ladies and gentlemen, I am Feng Jiuwu. I will be hosting this auction. The rules remain the same as before. You can settle with Primordial Stones or with treasures of equal value. When encountering essential treasures, you can also bid by lighting the sky lantern!”
Sky lantern?
Jian Wushuang was a bit puzzled upon hearing this.
Luckily, Sword Immortal Tonghe was sitting beside him.
He learned about the function of the sky lantern from the other party.
Once the sky lantern is lit, it means endless bidding.
It only stops when no one else bids.
In other words, once the sky lantern is lit, there’s no need to bid oneself. Just watch others bid, as it will always outbid them.
Upon hearing this, Jian Wushuang thought to himself, only a fool would light the sky lantern.
However, Sword Immortal Tonghe casually remarked, “The first time I participated, I once lit the sky lantern. That treasure was extremely useful to me, even a chance to break through the Seventh Tribulation. For that treasure, I even sold several epochs of my life to the Shi Kingdom!”
“Selling life?” Jian Wushuang was quite surprised.
“There’s nothing to be surprised about. At that time, I couldn’t produce so many treasures and Primordial Stones. In the end, it was the strongmen of the Shi Kingdom who guaranteed it for me. I got that treasure, and then repaid the favor by fighting for the royal family of the Shi Kingdom several times!” Tonghe spoke plainly.
But only he knew that during those battles, he almost perished.
He even killed a Universe Master of the same level.
The battles of the Shi Kingdom were not the conflicts of the Ancient Wood Continent.
They were the contests over Outer Domain secret realms.
There were many Outer Domain secret realms!
But most were occupied by some major forces.
Only some extremely dangerous secret realms, which even the superpowers couldn’t suppress, remained unclaimed.
Such as the Wu Hua Secret Realm and the Ancient Moon Ruins.
These secret realms, no one dared to touch.
For a superpower like the Shi Kingdom, internal battles were meaningless; the resources of the Ancient Wood Continent were so scarce.
Usually, battles were for the external contest of Outer Domain secret realms.
Hearing about the rumors of the secret realms, Jian Wushuang’s heart stirred.
He had learned a lot about the Outer Domain regions in the past.
The so-called Outer Domain regions were places beyond the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands.
They were extremely dangerous, with many natural secret realms.
Even Universe Masters would venture there.
Naturally, there were many opportunities.
If it weren’t for Wu Li’s plan, he would probably have gone to the Outer Domain regions. But
with Wu Li’s plan, unlocking the Wanliu was the best choice.
Because the dangers within the Wanliu were relatively smaller.
Venturing into the Outer Domain posed much greater risks.
Even Universe Masters of the Sixth Tribulation faced the threat of demise.
The Wanliu Divine Tree was different; the danger lay in how to confront the strong individuals of the Ancient Wood Continent upon venturing out.
Internally, the risks were not as significant.
At least there were no competitors.
In the Outer Domain, within some universe secret realms, there were many old monsters.
There were also many unique life forms.
For an Emperor like him, even if his strength could rival that of the Fifth Tribulation, going there was extremely dangerous.
The Tonghe chuckled lightly before continuing, “You’ll understand when you succeed in the future. The dangers in the Outer Territories also represent opportunities!”
Jian Wushuang nodded in agreement.
Behind every crisis lay immense opportunities.
Just like his current situation.
Facing the formidable Mie Sheng also presented the opportunity to control the cycle of
reincarnation.
Even Mie Sheng coveted it greatly.
Coming from the Starry Sky, seeking the Master of Life.
If he could defeat Mie Sheng, he could devour the Master of Death, control reincarnation,
and grasp spacetime.
It was even possible to surpass the Universe Masters.
Just like those ancient existences.
With confidence comes determination.
Jian Wushuang clenched his fists.
The auction officially commenced at this moment
Feng Jiuwu waved his hand casually, and a huge jade pillar appeared on the high platform in
the hall.
At the top of the pillar, an object was floating at this moment. “Esteemed guests, this treasure is the heaven-defying supreme treasure from the Wu Hua Secret Realm, the Qingyan Divine Water. All Universe Masters are aware that during the Fifth Tribulation, the Cataclysmic Flame Divine Mountain will descend into the Universe. Origin Source. With this item, that tribulation will no longer be a tribulation!” After Feng Jiuwu’s introduction, many Universe Masters of the Fourth Tribulation turned their
attention.
The Universe Master transcended his own tribulation, not just his personal ordeal, but also the tribulation of the universe itself.
The fundamental universe also experiences tribulations.
Ordinary personal tribulations can be anticipated, and one wouldn’t attempt to transcend them without confidence.
However, the supreme tribulation within the fundamental universe is different. It requires not only personal strength but also the strength of the universe’s Origin Source.
If the Origin Source of the universe cannot withstand it, even immense divine power is
futile.
Most practitioners of divine power in the Ancient Moon Spacetime are not strong in Origin
Source.
So for them, personal tribulations are not difficult.
It’s the supreme tribulations of the universe that pose a challenge.
This reminded Jian Wushuang of Qishen.
Qishen failed in his tribulation, yet the Origin Source of the fundamental universe persisted.
Later, it evolved into Qishen Temple.
Qishen, who cultivated the Origin Source, fell under his personal tribulation, but the
fundamental universe did not perish.
He could have chosen to transcend as a scattered tribulation, but it would have required
abandoning the Origin Source of the universe.
For the sake of the fundamental universe, Qishen would rather sacrifice his own universe.
He was truly ruthless.
But perhaps the reasons behind it were not as simple as they seemed.
Jian Wushuang, on the other hand, was different.
His personal tribulations corresponded to the intensity of his divine power.
His divine power now surpassed even the Origin Source.
While the supreme tribulation within the Universe Origin Source was formidable, it still
couldn’t compare to the Starry Sky evolved from the Extreme Dao.
The first universe was about to illuminate.
