The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard-Chapter 2163 - 2162: Setting Out for the Trial
After Chang Xi and Taida left, a group of cultivators who wanted to embark on the Starry Ancient Path came in to register with Long Fei.
Long Fei informed them in advance that the Starry Ancient Path is extremely perilous, with the risk of losing one’s life at any moment.
He is only providing the route and is not responsible for their safety.
Once on the road, they must take responsibility for their own lives or deaths.
Everyone present nodded, including Shen Feng and his sister Shen Yan’er from Mount Shu, and the old Taoist Fu Chenzi from Kunlun.
He had rebuilt his physical body using the Kunlun Snow Lotus.
This secret technique can provide the same capabilities as a physical body, absorbing external Yuan Force to support the cultivation of the primordial spirit.
It’s like putting a mecha on the primordial spirit.
From the Ocean Clan, there were Long Zhu’er, Azure Dragon Demon King, and Ao Jiang, Ao He, Ao Hong, and Ao Hu from the Nether Sea Dragon King’s family signed up.
These four sons were Ao Kun’s finest.
Originally, Ao Kun planned to name them to govern the rivers, lakes, and floods in the human realm.
The Old Dragon King’s ambition back then was extraordinary.
The Azure Dragon Demon King is now only at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm, falling behind many juniors present.
He really does not want to waste time in this small pond of Terra King Star anymore; life is short, he might as well take a gamble.
The Great Xia Country was once full of talent, but now its glory is fading.
The ten great talents of the past have all perished.
There’s no other way, the elite path was blocked, they had to suppress them and redistribute resources to those below.
What surprised Long Fei was that Shennong Valley left Six-Eared Monkey to accompany Long Fei.
This Six-Eared Monkey has been on Long Fei’s mind for a long time.
It’s a natural intelligence agent; with a perk of the ears, it knows the affairs of the world.
All the people of the Great Xia Country were present, and the extraterritorial cultivators have already headed to Demon King Star to meet up with Long Fei there.
They hold themselves in high esteem and disdain to share the same path with Long Fei.
Long Fei dismissed the crowd, letting them rest on Jade Island; they would set out together in three days.
Among the disciples of Jade Island, Long Fei initially chose Chu Feng, Murong Chong, Wang Jie, Bald Dog, Ground Rat Demon King, Da Heiniu, and Old Lvv.
He wasn’t at ease leaving these guys in this world.
They once traversed the Immortal King Star together and were familiar with the external environment, knowing how to adapt in critical moments.
He went to Lin Yingying’s courtyard, intending to discuss with Lin Yingying again.
Just as he reached the door, he saw a room full of people, all of whom were female disciples pleading with Lin Yingying to follow him on the Starry Ancient Path.
They quieted down when they saw Long Fei.
"Everyone’s here!"
Long Fei gave them a slight smile and entered the room to sit with Lin Yingying.
Lin Yingying sighed with relief, "You’re finally here, please help with these crazy girls! Each of them wants to go on the Starry Ancient Path and can’t be persuaded otherwise."
Leading these people was none other than Lin Shanshan.
She mumbled to Long Fei, "Brother-in-law, this time you have to take us all. Every time you go out, you never take us. Are you discriminating against women?"
"Right, exactly!"
Zhang Xuan’er hummed in agreement.
Li Zhenni said, "That’s right. I used to be an organizer of adventure teams in the mortal world. Now that I’m a little wife and stuck on this island, I can’t go anywhere; it’s so frustrating."
Gongsun Zhi said, "Previously, our cultivation level was not as good as others, but now we’ve reached the Divinity Transformation Realm and can protect ourselves outside!"
Jiang Yunlan said, "Wherever they go, I go! I can practice alchemy and serve as the logistics personnel for everyone."
The two Fox sisters said, "We are going to pursue the footprints of our ancestors, to see where our ancestors lived."
Bai Qianqian said, "Me too, me too."
The three foxes had an aura of demonic qi that was restrained, but their fox-like charm was becoming more prominent, making them very alluring.
Saintess Emily from the Western Direction said, "I’m going to spread the Master’s gospel and see the traces left by the Master in other worlds."
An Xiaoke and Liuu Ruyan, with low cultivation levels, stood by without speaking, content to serve as Lin Yingying’s little secretaries.
They each had sharp tongues, talking as if they were imprisoned on Jade Island.
Long Fei looked at Hua Qianmo and said, "Vice Sect Hierarch, are you going too?"
Hua Qianmo shook his head and smiled lightly, "I’m not going; I don’t have the time."
Long Fei asked Ding Xue, "What about you?"
Ding Xue said, "As the head of security, I have to stay here to help Yingying."
She had a good relationship with Lin Yingying; wherever Lin Yingying was, she wished to stay there.
The vampire sisters, Sophia and Soria, were now her deputies.
Since she refused to go, naturally, the twin sisters didn’t go either.
Long Fei nodded, "Seems like only a few of you are busy; everyone else is indeed quite idle."
Everyone exchanged glances and shared a laugh, asking Long Fei, "Will you agree then?"
Long Fei said, "You claim I’m discriminating against women. If I say no, wouldn’t that confirm my reputation?"
The women exclaimed excitedly, "Are you agreeing?"
Long Fei smiled calmly, "How about this? I’ll give you a test. If you pass, I’ll agree to take you along."
"What test?"
Lin Shanshan and the other sisters widened their eyes.
Long Fei took out a magical treasure and said, "Back on the Immortal King Star, on Immortal King Mountain, there were nine levels of opportunities. The highest level had a battlefield illusion made with a magical treasure. If you enter the illusion and can hold out for one incense stick’s time before coming out, I will take you along."
"A battlefield environment?"
The group of women frowned, having never heard Long Fei mention this.
Lin Shanshan asked Long Fei, "Is it dangerous inside?"
Long Fei said, "Of course, although the illusion is all imaginary, the injuries you experience inside are as real as can be. Only upon death can you exit and return to reality. Each time you die, your primordial spirit will be severely damaged, requiring ten to fifteen days for recovery."
The group of women gasped in unison, surprised to learn of such a magical treasure.
Li Zhenni, being bold, encouraged everyone, "It’s not actual death, so what are we afraid of. One incense stick is only fifteen minutes; it will be easy to endure."
"Right, what’s there to fear, let’s just go in!"
Lin Shanshan nodded in agreement.
The other women nodded, thinking it’s only an incense stick of time; they can endure it.
They asked Long Fei, "If even one person holds out to the end, does it count?"
"It counts!"
Long Fei nodded.
Gongsun Zhi asked, "Are there any restrictions on spells inside? Can magical treasures from reality be used?"
Long Fei nodded and replied, "There are no restrictions; after you go in, you can summon your magical treasures, which will become virtual treasures inside without any difference compared to reality."
Lin Shanshan and the others called out proudly, "Then let’s go in; what’s the big deal."
"Alright, that’s settled!"
Long Fei smiled, leading the group of women out to the great hall where the wedding ceremony was held yesterday.
The place was empty, perfect for transforming into a trial area for the disciples.
He brought out a trial artifact he took from the Immortal King Palace, and immediately, a dazzling light attracted the attention of all the disciples.
To their surprise, it was a thousand-pocked, surface-dried, almost withering old willow tree.
Long Fei placed it in the great hall, and its roots quickly embedded into the floor tiles.
Spiritual energy rapidly converged from all directions, making its body increasingly radiant, exuding sparkling starlight.
