Nine Revolutions Star Technique-Chapter 584 - 587: Kunlun Realm! Extraordinary!

The entire Lintian City is immensely vast, with gates leading to all directions, constantly swallowing and spewing out cultivators from all corners of Southern Heaven and beyond.

The streets are bustling with cars and crowds, endlessly flowing.

Even the most prosperous city in the Barbaric Continent is far from matching even a tenth of its grandeur.

Moreover.

What surprised Ye Qingchen even more was.

Within Lintian City, most of the people coming and going are cultivators. Among them are many strong individuals, including Celestial Saints and Celestial Venerables!

"Just the number of Celestial Venerables in this city alone is not inferior to that of the Barbaric Continent," Ye Qingchen thought to himself as he glanced around, silently amazed.

You must know.

On the Barbaric Continent, to cultivate to become a Celestial Venerable requires at least a hundred years, and each one is a rare genius. Yet here, they are not uncommon, indicating how shocked he truly is.

Although these cultivators have gathered here because of the Taotian Palace selection, you can see how immense the background of the Kunlun Realm is.

"Didn’t you say there’s still three months until the Taotian Palace selection, why have these cultivators already come here so early?" Ye Qingchen asked, his hands behind his back.

Sea of Zhou chuckled and said, "Although there’s still over three months, during this time, some elders and high officials of Taotian Palace will deliberately come down the mountain to search for some highly talented cultivators. These people probably want to make a name for themselves in front of Taotian Palace!"

Ye Qingchen nodded slightly.

He learned from Sea of Zhou about the situation in the Kunlun Realm. Besides a few countries, most people reside in cities. There are tens of thousands of cities scattered around, ranging from tens of thousands to millions in size.

Each city exists in dependence of the sects, with the major sects holding supreme power over everything!

Boom!

Just then.

A thunderous sound suddenly came from above the sky, immediately followed by two figures swiftly streaking across the sky like a flash, colliding fiercely as countless eyes watched in awe.

An overwhelming pressure crazily poured down.

"Is that?"

Ye Qingchen suddenly looked up.

He saw.

In the beam of light, the two figures parted at the touch and stood in the void.

They.

One dressed in white, holding a Gilded Long Spear, with an aura like a dragon. The other in black, holding a heavy black blade, with a presence like a tiger. The two powerful energies collided fiercely, evenly matched.

"It’s Wu Xingyun and Tuoba Ye!"

Sea of Zhou exclaimed.

Seeing Ye Qingchen’s puzzled expression, he quickly explained:

"That young man in white is Wu Xingyun, he is the son of the great family from Guangling Prefecture. The other is Tuoba Ye, the third young master of Tianqi City!"

"Both are Celestial Venerable Ninth Layer, reportedly already chosen by Taotian Palace as True Disciples even before participating in the selection, and plenty of elders have fought fiercely over them!"

"Celestial Venerable Ninth Layer?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingchen quickly looked over.

Indeed.

He saw the two youths with vast and imposing energy, far surpassing anything Du Di could compare to.

Sea of Zhou thought Ye Qingchen was intimidated, hastily said, "Mr. Ye, these two, even in the Kunlun Realm, are extraordinary talents. They have constantly consumed various Heavenly and Earthly Treasures since childhood... Naturally, their strength isn’t comparable to ordinary people."

"With your qualities, as long as you can join Taotian Palace, in another ten years or so, you’ll be able to reach their level!"

"Three to five years?"

Ye Qingchen mused silently shaking his head.

You must understand.

He progressed from the True Qi Realm to the Celestial Venerable Realm within just two years, and that was while in the True Qi-deprived Barbaric Continent. If he were in the Kunlun Realm, he might surpass them in just three to five years.

"Tuoba Ye, you can’t defeat me, why do you insist on pushing me?" In the void, Wu Xingyun’s eyes slightly drooped, whispering.

"Haha, as they say, ’No two tigers can share one mountain.’ You and I are the top contenders for this Taotian Palace selection. I just want to know who is the superior between us!"

Tuoba Ye revolved his blade, laughing loudly.

"In that case, let me accompany you for a battle of joy!" Wu Xingyun glanced at the Lintian City below, "However, this isn’t a suitable place for battle, let’s change the location!"

Boom!

With his words.

He already turned and exploded rapidly towards the distance.

"Don’t run!" Tuoba Ye shouted loudly, quickly chasing after him.

In the blink of an eye, their figures had vanished from the sky. Many people in the city, seeing this scene, couldn’t help but be curious about the outcome of this battle, and followed in pursuit.

Sea of Zhou was also eager, but after glancing at the nearby Ye Qingchen, he sheepishly stopped.

"Why aren’t you chasing to watch?" Ye Qingchen asked, amused.

"My cultivation is too low, I simply can’t keep up." Sea of Zhou laughed awkwardly. He understood well enough, people like Tuoba Ye and Wu Xingyun are beyond his reach.

Whereas Ye Qingchen before him was undoubtedly capable of passing the selection and becoming an Inner Sect Disciple, he naturally wanted to cling tightly to him.

That earlier scene was merely a small interlude.

Later.

Ye Qingchen encountered a few more battles, although not as monstrous as Tuoba Ye and Wu Xingyun, still powerful Celestial Venerable experts.

According to Sea of Zhou’s introduction, Ye Qingchen learned of certain ’rules’ in the Taotian Palace selections over the years. Every selection saw cultivators below Celestial Saint making up about ninety percent, while Celestial Venerables occupied the other ten percent.

Celestial Saint cultivators can enter Taotian Palace and become Outer Sect Disciples.

As for Celestial Venerables, they can become Inner Sect Disciples!

Certain outstanding, extraordinarily gifted individuals may even become True Disciples!

"Celestial Venerable is just the beginning, then!"

"I see my path of cultivation still has a long way to go!"

"But before that, I must first heal my wounds!"

Ye Qingchen stroked his chin, contemplating.

The battle with Du Di was very draining, even with the nourishment of the Fire Element Spirit Spring, he barely restored himself to the Celestial Venerable First Layer. Next, he must heal before continuing his cultivation.

Moreover, his pills have all been depleted, it’s time to restock.

Thinking of this, he turned to Sea of Zhou and said, "By the way, are there any medicine shops in Lintian City?"

"Medicine shop?" Sea of Zhou paused and suddenly slapped his head, "There’s a Longevity Pavilion in the city, the largest medicine shop in Lintian City, complete with all kinds of herbs."

"Great, let’s go there!" Ye Qingchen decided.

True to Sea of Zhou’s words, the Longevity Pavilion was built along the street, covering a hundred acres, looking very grand. After Ye Qingchen stepped in, he found a wide range of herbal medicines, with everything you could wish for.

Even.

Certain Spirit Grass herbs, extremely rare on the Barbaric Continent, could be seen here.

Ye Qingchen handed Sea of Zhou a list, but upon receiving it, Sea of Zhou frowned, hesitating to speak.

"What’s wrong?" Ye Qingchen asked.

Sea of Zhou replied, "Mr. Ye, the grade of the herbs you want is quite high. Do you have enough money?"

Uh!

Ye Qingchen was momentarily speechless.

Back on the Barbaric Continent, he hardly used money. If he wanted something, people would offer it willingly. At most, it was exchanging goods, but now his pills were exhausted, and his Spirit Sword remained on the Barbaric Continent, leaving only his Gui Xu Sword and some items in his Void Ring. What else could he have?

Just then, mocking laughter suddenly came from behind, "Sea of Zhou, I didn’t expect you, a waste, to come to Lintian City. No money, yet you dare come to Longevity Pavilion?"

Hearing this, Ye Qingchen turned, seeing a group of people swaggering toward him, led by a young man in silk clothing with arms crossed, studying them with a mocking look on his face.

"Zhao Mo, what I do is none of your business!" Sea of Zhou frowned and shouted, "Also, please show some respect in front of a Celestial Venerable!"

"Celestial Venerable?"

Zhao Mo scanned Ye Qingchen, noticing his ordinary demeanor and simple attire, smirking coldly, "Most Celestial Venerables attending the selection come from prominent cities as paragons. I’ve never seen anyone like this?"

The youths behind him laughed mockingly:

"Only someone like you, who has never seen a Celestial Venerable, would be deceived!"

"People are drawn to their own kind. Those associating with waste are likely waste too! If you’re a Celestial Venerable, well then, I’m a Human Immortal!"

"Hahaha, he’s a Celestial Venerable? That demeanor hardly resembles a Celestial Venerable!"

His entourage laughed openly.

Sea of Zhou’s face changed dramatically.

You must understand.

He witnessed Ye Qingchen in the valley killing Du Di, a formidable Celestial Venerable Seventh Layer. To behave so audaciously before such a strong figure is seeking death, isn’t it?

Sure enough.

Ye Qingchen, standing there, his expression turned cold, brows slightly furrowed.
