Chapter 6116: The Challenge Begins

“Will the talisman paper nullify the threat of Chu Feng’s Asura World Spirit or outright kill her?” Baili Zilin asked with clenched jaws.

He harbored a deep-seated hatred for Eggy that he dreamed about exacting vengeance on her. But Eggy remained cruel in his dreams. Not only did he fail to exact vengeance on her there, but he ended up getting tortured instead.

Eggy’s beautiful face had become Baili Zilin’s nightmare.

Whenever Eggy appeared in his dreams, he would wake up drenched in sweat. There were a couple of times he burst into tears.

Cultivators of his level didn’t need to rest to relieve their exhaustion, but perhaps because he had exhausted himself practicing his world spiritist technique or that the injury he had suffered from Eggy had dealt him a psychological trauma, he often felt exhausted and needed to sleep.

But each time he slept, he would jolt awake from a nightmare.

His superficial injuries had mostly healed, but his psychological trauma continued to torture him. He had no idea when this would stop.

On top of that, he was too ashamed to confide in anyone about this, so he could only silently endure it.

“It can only restrain her, but I’m sure you can deal with Chu Feng once he loses the support of his world spirits, right?” Jie Mubai asked.

“Of course,” Baili Zilin replied with a confident smirk.

“Don’t kill him. I have a use for Chu Feng. If you can capture him alive, I’ll charge you half the price for helping you conquer the Luck Saint Realm,” Jie Mubai replied.

“I can easily curb him; I’m just worried that he dares not come.”

“That is a problem. Most people would have backed out in this situation.”

Jie Mubai looked at the Luck Saint Realm with a conflicted look. He wasn’t sure if Chu Feng would come.

...

Three figures were eyeing the Luck Saint Realm from space. They were Xia Xingchen, Daoist Starseizer, and his disciple, Huahua.

“You agreed not to reveal yourselves unless Chu Feng comes,” Daoist Starseizer reminded.

“Rest assured, elder. There’s no reason for us to reveal ourselves if Chu Feng doesn’t come,” Xia Xingchen replied with a sweet, coy smile.

Most men would have succumbed to her beauty, but Daoist Starseizer was unfazed.

“Master, will you help Chu Feng if he comes?” Huahua asked as she looked at Daoist Starseizer with a pitiful face.

Daoist Starseizer glared at Huahua. “We agreed beforehand. I’m only here to protect you lest you meet with harm. I’ll only tell young friend Chu Feng the result of my prophecy regarding his mother if we meet him.”

His stance was clear from his response.

As a member of the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, he wouldn’t do anything detrimental to the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion even though he had left them.

“Elder, what’s the result of Jie Ranqing’s prophecy?” Xia Xingchen asked.

“I will only tell young friend Chu Feng,” Daoist Starseizer replied.

“Is it bad news?” Xia Xingchen pressed on.

She didn’t know the result, but she remembered Daoist Starseizer’s complexion didn’t look good when the prophecy came out.

Daoist Starseizer didn’t answer her question.

...

Soon, the long-awaited moment arrived.

A ray of light swiftly rippled from the formation realm, devouring a huge space that spanned an area comparable to the Luck Saint Realm. The light contained teleportation energy that could be channeled to enter the formation realm.

Those who didn’t want to get to the formation realm could simply ignore it.

The crowd was excited as this meant they could witness everything that would happen.

Many people invoked the teleportation energy to enter the formation realm.

With a wave of his sleeves, Daoist Starseizer enveloped himself, Xia Xingchen, and Huahua in his spirit power to ensure they remained together when entering the formation realm. Only then did he invoke the teleportation energy and enter the teleportation passageway.

“The speed of the teleportation passageway is incredible! Who’s the Luck Saint Realm’s owner? Is it the World Spiritist Emperor?” Huahua asked out of curiosity.

“It doesn’t appear to be the World Spiritist Emperor’s means. Regardless, the Luck Saint Realm’s owner must have been an amazing figure in the Ancient Era.”

As a world spiritist, Daoist Starseizer could sense how formidable the Luck Saint Realm was, to the extent he doubted he could ever reach the same height as its creator.

The formation was so powerful that it didn’t take long for Daoist Starseizer, Xia Xingchen, and Huahua to enter the formation realm even though they had been far away.

The formation realm was much larger than what it appeared on the outside. It resembled a dueling ring and was split into two areas—the center area and the outer area.

The outer area was filled with spectator seats. It was so huge that there would be a seat for everyone no matter how many people came to spectate.

In the center area was a giant transparent sphere. This sphere was larger than most realms, and it harnessed the power of magnification. It allowed everyone to see what was happening in the dueling ring no matter how weak their cultivation was.

Through the sphere, the spectators could see three gigantic squares resembling compasses. These squares were so big that they were larger than most continents.

The centermost square was the most mysterious one of all.

The other two squares looked identical, with each containing a stone monument. One was inscribed with ‘Chu Feng’ and the other ‘Baili Zilin’.

The squares also contained two formations each. The first formation enveloped only the stone monument, whereas the second formation occupied over 90% of the square.

The world spiritists present deduced that the two formations served to support Chu Feng and Baili Zilin in the trial. They had to channel the smaller one themselves, whereas the crowd could help them with the bigger one.

Weng!

There was a sudden surge of light, and Baili Zilin appeared on the square inscribed with his name. His tiny figure highlighted just how huge the square was.

It should have been hard to spot him given how tiny he was compared to the square, but the formation made it so that his entry immediately piqued everyone’s attention, and his figure could be clearly seen through the transparent sphere.

At the same time, countless spirit formation gates neatly appeared on the transparent sphere, and Baili Zilin’s name was written in the center of these gates.

The meaning was clear. Those who wished to support Baili Zilin could do so by entering the spirit formation gate.
