Shennong Dao Master-Chapter 1306 - 9: Who Knew You Could Break the Rules Like This?

"Bang!"

Heavenly Thunder streaked from above, and the disciple was instantly dead beyond any doubt.

[Bastard!!]

Ziluo Venerable was furious, yet didn't dare say a word, only scribbling furiously to curse.

Because he too had almost fallen victim, his mind affected by those strange eyes.

Unfortunately, Zhao Xing ignored him entirely.

The three strong figures from the Four Extremes Sect, Chen Song, Zhang Liang, and Peng Bo, also lamented non-stop.

They desperately wanted to give Ziluo Venerable a beating, wondering why he provoked others needlessly?

He almost dragged us into trouble.

However, they didn't dare make any move, merely tiptoeing forward.

The surroundings soon fell silent once more.

The three groups advanced silently in the dojo, quickly arriving at another square.

The ground of the square was littered with blood moss, clearly nothing good.

Everyone cautiously avoided contact.

There were stone platforms on all four sides of the square, and the Earth Puppet stood in front of a relatively intact palace on the east.

King Shenluo clutched his chest, visibly excited.

He wrote awkwardly, telling everyone: this is the place!

Zhao Xing followed King Shenluo's indication and saw a faint golden light sphere floating above the palace roof behind the Earth Puppet.

"Heaven and Earth Spiritual Beauty, it doesn't seem too strong," Zhao Xing pondered. "But it might just be my senses aren't strong enough, as it's the exclusive Heaven and Earth Spiritual Beauty for limited professions."

Zhao Xing asked King Shenluo: [Do you think it's time to harvest?]

Though excited, King Shenluo carefully sensed and shook his head: [Very close, but not yet.]

Zhao Xing nodded, noting the eight whirlwinds hadn't arrived, meaning this Heaven and Earth Spiritual Beauty needed time to mature.

Surviving here wasn't easy, yet no one retreated.

Zhao Xing and his group quickly occupied the stone platform area in the east.

Chen Song, Zhang Liang, and Peng Bo from the Four Extremes Sect, following suit, took the southern stone platform. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Ziluo Venerable, unsure of the situation as his people hadn't reached here before, seeing Zhao Xing and the Four Extremes Sect behaving this way, ran to the western stone platform.

"Hmm? Speech is possible, is this an isolated rules' safe zone?" Ziluo Venerable was quite surprised, realizing Zhao Xing understood more than them!

"How on earth did this person manage that?"

Ziluo Venerable fixed his gaze on Zhao Xing, deciding to emulate Chen Song and the others, following Zhao Xing's actions.

The wait for the Spiritual Beauty to mature was long; Zhao Xing rotated people out of the safe zone every two hours to reset their safe zone time before returning.

To understand this, Ziluo Venerable's group paid with another life.

Zhao Xing casually sent people to scout, unexpected that staying around the stone platforms too long was dangerous.

After half a month, King Shenluo suddenly spoke: "It's time, I can feel it, the moment has arrived."

Zhao Xing retrieved his clone from the square at once.

"Wait for me here a moment."

Ye Yuxong curiously asked: "Can Earth Puppets talk?"

Zhao Xing's clone approached the Earth Puppet after leaving the stone platform area.

Having been hunted before, they all had shadows of fear about the Earth Puppet, yet Zhao Xing boldly walked up to it.

Ji Yun and Cui Chengzhi pricked up their ears to listen.

However, Zhao Xing was writing, using the characters seen all over Jixi Dojo.

Previously, when the rule descended, they couldn't understand the sounds, but as Fate Palace Realm masters, they could comprehend the content, for it was conveyed through the Dao.

Now, Zhao Xing seemed to be conversing using these characters.

"The Grand Minister of Agriculture mastered this language in such a short time?" Ji Yun marveled: "Truly a genius."

"I suspect he even speaks the language. Didn't Qing Yu Zi come here before?" Cui Chengzhi chuckled.

"Amazing!" Ye Yuxong raised his thumb in approval.

Meanwhile, Zhao Xing successfully communicated with the Earth Puppet.

[Senior Apprentice Brother, I wish to enter the True Inheritance Hall, what are the requirements?]

The Earth Puppet noticed the words in the air, turning to glance at Zhao Xing, its eyes dark and deep, unlike a human's.

It spoke directly, seemingly in an ancient language: "To enter the True Inheritance Hall, one must complete a cross-level challenge to prove oneself."

Zhao Xing contemplated, then glanced at the roof's Spiritual Beauty, and backed away.

"So, what did it say?"

"I asked the Earth Puppet about the conditions for entering, and it said you need to complete a cross-level challenge to prove your worth."

"Ah?" Ye Yuxong and King Shenluo were a bit disappointed.

They were already at the Fate Palace Realm, yet a cross-level challenge?

Wouldn't that mean fighting in the Rule Realm?

That requirement was indeed absurd!

"You're forgetting the rules here have changed," Zhao Xing laughed: "King Shenluo, go find a rank-three from the Corpse Puppet Sect and take them down."

"What do you mean?" King Shenluo was puzzled.

"It only said cross-level challenge, didn't specify going up," Zhao Xing shrugged. "Going down is also cross-level, why doesn't it count?"

Everyone: "..."

The four were stunned, could it be played like this?
