Chapter 968: Qianyuan Mountain
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

If Zhang Ruochen could become the Deity, he would be able to discover high-level secrets of the Blood G.o.d Sect. He would also have an endless supply of cultivation resources and acc.u.mulate power while waiting.

At the same time, being the Deity could cure him of the Blood G.o.d Venomous Worm. This could save him a lot of trouble.

No matter the reason, trying for the position of the Blood G.o.d Sect's Deity was imperative for Zhang Ruochen.

Thus, Zhang Ruochen nodded at Discipline King Haiming, agreeing.

"Since you've already cultivated the Seven-Aperture Blood Palm to the sixth aperture," Discipline King Haiming said. "Then you have a 30 percent chance of beating the others."
A 30 percent chance was already very large. He could be in the top five of the candidates.

"There's only a 30 percent chance even if I cultivated the sixth aperture?" Zhang Ruochen asked.

Discipline King Haiming nodded. "You're strong physically and have high comprehension," he said, voice turning hoa.r.s.e and carrying an evil tone. "However, you've only cultivated the Blood Dragon Scripture. It's only a Ghost Level supreme cla.s.s technique. Compared to those prides who have King Level saint spells, you're still at a disadvantage."

"You only cultivated the sixth aperture because of your luck. If not for that, you might only have 10 percent of a chance to become the Deity. Plus, you can't use the Blood G.o.d Venomous Worm in the fight. This restricts you too."

Clearly, Discipline King Haiming thought that the main reason that Zhang Ruochen had become the Banner Lord was the Blood G.o.d Venomous Worm and some luck. He didn't have high hopes. Even if Zhang Ruochen had a chance to become the Deity, it wasn't very likely.

How could a genius with a Ghost Level supreme cla.s.s technique beat a genius with a King Level saint technique?

The Deity had to be talented in every aspect and have no weaknesses.

"The compet.i.tion for the Deity of an ancient sect surpa.s.ses your imagination," Discipline King Haiming continued. "Once you become the Deity, you immediately become a king above the others, equal to Saints. Not only you, but the family behind you will also reach their highest state and receive endless resources."

"Mei Lanzhu didn't become the Deity because his talent had surpa.s.sed many people in the sect. Many people were unsatisfied with him. However, his performance at the Heir Banquet had been too eye-catching. He was tenth of the King Seats and had drank the Empress' Supreme Saint Heavenly Tea. His potential increased greatly. In addition, there are some outside factors that all overlapped to make the Deity position his without a doubt."

"This time, other than Bai Yu and Yan Kongming, who you've met, there are some even younger people who will compete. They'll compete with your generation. The compet.i.tion has never been so intense before."

Thinking of this, Discipline King Haiming continued, "Your Saint Meridians and meridians are set now and unable to cultivate other techniques. So, in the coming month, focus entirely on cultivation. Try to improve a little and reach the middle stage of the third level. If you need pills for help, ask your Senior Uncle Ji."

Zhang Ruochen glanced at Ji Shui and nodded. He had a better impression of the person who always stood in a cloud of b.l.o.o.d.y mist and never showed her true face. He was also curious.

"If you have the chance, visit the Nether Heavenly Palace and search for a suitable King Level saint technique. Spend some time on comprehending it. Even if you can't cultivate it directly, it can still help you improve. If you really have a good opportunity and reach the Saint Realm, there's a bigger chance to cultivate another technique."

After telling him everything, Discipline King Haiming had Ji Shui take Zhang Ruochen away.

When Ji Shui and Zhang Ruochen were far away, Blue Night's eyes turned dark. "Master," he said in a low voice. "That man is extremely proud. If he becomes the Deity and cancels the threat of the Blood G.o.d Venomous Worm, he might not listen to us anymore."

The smile on Discipline King Haiming's face disappeared completely. He radiated with a cold aura. "Even if he becomes the Deity, he'll only have a higher status and receive more resources. His cultivation isn't enough to break free from my control."

Discipline King Haiming was very controlling and wouldn't let anyone betray him. Even if Gu Linfeng became a Deity, if he wasn't obedient, Discipline King Haiming still had ways to kill him secretly.

Ji Shui didn't take Zhang Ruochen to the Nether Heavenly Palace. Instead, they went toward the Ancient Snow Mountain.

Zhang Ruochen used a physical technique to follow Ji Shui. "Senior Uncle Ji, where are we going?"

b.l.o.o.d.y mist swirled around Ji Shui. She seemed not to have a physical body. "Master already talked with Palace Lord Qi," she said indifferently. "You need not return to the Nether Heavenly Palace for now. You must prepare for the battle wholeheartedly. I will guide your cultivation the next month until the day of the compet.i.tion."

Ji Shui didn't tell Zhang Ruochen where they were going. Zhang Ruochen didn't keep asking either.

Ji Shui's cultivation was very strong. Zhang Ruochen felt that her state was even higher than Blue Night's. Plus, her technique was very strange. Even Zhang Ruochen couldn't distinguish her true state. Of course, this was because Zhang Ruochen hadn't used his Heavenly Eye yet.

After leaving the Ancient Snow Mountain, the two transformed into two beams of saintly light, flying in the air with extreme speed.

The Blood G.o.d Sect had a long history and had produced more than one Supreme Saint. The founder of the sect was like a G.o.d. The sect's territory was naturally vast, sprawling over many spiritual mountains and lands.

After flying for more than 1.000 miles, Ji Shui gradually slowed. She started descending and landed on the ground. Zhang Ruochen also landed. He stood beside Ji Shui and looked forward.

There was a majestic mountain. It rose up on the flat land and shot into the clouds. One couldn't see how high it was. The parts below the clouds were already more than 6,000 meters tall. It looked mighty and vast, radiating with purple-green spiritual light.

"It's actually purple Cloud Qi." Zhang Ruochen was shocked. "This mountain must have a Saintly Meridian under it."

The clouds in the sky weren't actual clouds. They were the Sea of Qi formed by Spiritual Qi. The vicinity of 300 miles was filled with the clouds. This place had become a heavenly place.

It was already impressive for an average clan to find a place with sufficient Spiritual Qi to create a mountain base. A force that had a Saintly Meridian was truly a monster. They had ancient heritages and couldn't be compared to the new sects that only had a few thousand years of history.

"This mountain is called Qianyuan Mountain," Ji Shui explained while walking toward the mountain. "It's guarded by the Heaven Heavenly Palace, one of the Ten Heavenly Palaces. The peak has millions of books of the Blood G.o.d Sect. The middle of the mountain has some cultivation caves. Only disciples who have contributed to the Blood G.o.d Sect have the chance to cultivate in Qianyuan Mountain."

"I don't think I've contributed anything to the sect," Zhang Ruochen said.

Ji Shui continued, "The founder has ordered that any disciple the Heaven Heavenly Palace believes has potential to be the Deity can cultivate here before the battle."

They reached the foot of the Qianyuan Mountain. A frail elder stood at the entrance. He wore the Heaven Heavenly Palace's robe.

According to Ji Shui, this man was Elder Xu of the Heaven Heavenly Palace. He was a ninth level Half-Saint and was one of the first members of the Heaven Heavenly Palace. Anyone who came to Qianyuan Mountain needed his permission.

Others had arrived before them. There were three groups in total.

The first was Wu Ji, seventh disciple of Discipline King Chengxu, and Wu Ji's disciple Bai Yu.

Bai Yu had the Flying Fairy Saint Body and was a popular figure of the Blood G.o.d Sect. He was extremely arrogant. Clearly, he was a candidate for the Deity, so he was qualified to cultivate on the mountain.

Bai Yu and Zhang Ruochen had battled once for the Banner Lord position. He'd been seriously injured and humiliated. His status had plummeted in the Blood G.o.d Sect.

Seeing Zhang Ruochen now, Bai Yu was naturally furious. He huffed coldly. "Truly a small world for rivals."

Zhang Ruochen ignored him. He looked composed.
