Starting From The Equal Opportunity To Become A Saint

292. Chapter 292 Stirring A Hornet’S Nest!

Chapter 292: Stirring up a Hornet's Nest!

The main peak of Qingyun is different from the other four peaks.

Not only because it is guarded by the other four peaks and is the core of the Qingyun Immortal Gate.

But also because within the main peak of Qingyun, there is a cultivator like Zhong Ten Thousand Year, who has reached the Nascent Soul Eighth Realm.

Moreover, as the main peak of the Qingyun Immortal Gate, who knows if there are any other big shots hiding in the dark besides Zhong Ten Thousand Year?

"Do we still need to continue?" Liu Zimo's gaze was fixed on the nearby main peak of Qingyun, and he muttered to himself, hesitating somewhat.

Tonight, he has already gained enough on the four peaks of Qingyun. Is it necessary to take the risk and venture into the main peak of Qingyun?

The danger level of the main peak of Qingyun is several times higher than the other four peaks!

[Your good brother Zhou Yanqing had a fortuitous encounter, his cultivation base soared, and he broke through to the Nascent Soul First Realm in his Immortal Dao cultivation base!

Triggered the 'Heaven-stealing' talent attribute, sharing half of the Immortal Dao cultivation base increase, Immortal Dao cultivation base +200, Spiritual Sense +100, divine soul origin +100, sea of consciousness space +10,000.]

While contemplating, Liu Zimo suddenly heard a familiar sound of an ability prompt in his ear.

At the same time, the aura on the peak of Emerald Bamboo Peak surged, the Great Dao trembled, and a soaring golden light illuminated the entire sky above the Qingyun Immortal Gate.

This... someone has broken through to the Nascent Soul realm!

Liu Zimo's mind trembled slightly as he felt a massive influx of Immortal Dao cultivation base and Spiritual Sense cultivation base into his own body and sea of consciousness.

This instantly caused his cultivation base realm, which was already at the peak of the Nascent Soul Fifth Realm, to break through and ascend!

"Nascent Soul Sixth Realm!"

Liu Zimo clenched his fists tightly, a hint of joy appearing in his eyes.

The hesitation and indecision in his heart quickly dissipated due to the breakthrough in his cultivation base realm.

"Let's go all out!"

"This is how the world works. Those who are bold will survive, while the timid will starve!"

"Anyway, I won't stay in this Qingyun Immortal Gate for long. Instead of being forced out by Zhong Ten Thousand Year or other strong individuals in the main peak of Qingyun Immortal Gate in the future, it's better to take a risk before leaving!"

"Even if I am eventually discovered by Zhong Ten Thousand Year or other powerful individuals in the main peak of Qingyun, with my current Nascent Soul Sixth Realm cultivation base realm, I may still be able to retreat unscathed!"

Liu Zimo's gaze quickly became resolute and determined.

In the thirty years of the apocalypse, he had experienced countless life and death crises.

As long as the gains were sufficient, he would not hesitate or retreat when it was time to fight.

And this main peak of Qingyun in front of him was undoubtedly a great opportunity and chance for the current Liu Zimo.

The number and quality of the outstanding disciples and true transmission elders in the main peak of Qingyun far surpassed the other four peaks.

If he could bind all these outstanding disciples as his "good brothers" and "good sisters," Liu Zimo's cultivation base advancement speed in the future would undoubtedly reach a new level.

"Congratulations, Junior Brother Zhou, for breaking through and stepping into the Nascent Soul realm!"

"Congratulations, Elder Zhou, for breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm and adding ten thousand years of life!"

"..."

At this moment, all the elder disciples on the five peaks of Qingyun were communicating through voice transmission, congratulating Zhou Yanqing, who had just broken through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Especially Zhong Ten Thousand Year, sensing someone breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm, he directly flew up and left the main peak of Qingyun, appearing on Emerald Bamboo Peak.

The addition of a new Nascent Soul within the sect was definitely a great joyous occasion.

As the Sect Master, Zhong Ten Thousand Year naturally had to personally congratulate and commend Zhou Yanqing.

Upon seeing this, Liu Zimo felt secretly delighted and said, "Heaven is helping me too." Immediately, he moved to the peak of Qingyun Main Peak.

Without the presence of the Nascent Soul cultivator, Zhong Ten Thousand Year, his chances of being discovered while infiltrating Qingyun Main Peak became even smaller.

At this moment,

At the summit of Qingyun Main Peak,

In front of the Qingyun Great Hall,

Countless Elders, true disciples, and inner disciples from the main peak stood densely.

Everyone had a joyful and envious expression as they looked towards Emerald Bamboo Peak, witnessing the phenomenon caused by Zhou Yanqing breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.

Liu Zimo, like a dark night elf, calmly blended into the crowd.

Looking at the disciples shining with colorful light in front of him, he was also extremely delighted.

"Sure enough, the number of outstanding disciples in Qingyun Main Peak far exceeds that of any other peak!"

"This trip was worth it!"

Liu Zimo sighed with excitement.

Without any hesitation, he continuously moved through the crowd, binding one after another of the outstanding disciples and Elders with the Locking Shadow technique, keeping them three feet away from him!

[Binding successful! Your good sister, Sang Wenyi, is online. Currently, there are (505/1000) available targets for binding.]

[...]

[Binding successful! Your good brother, Wang Laizhang, is online. Currently, there are (565/1000) available targets for binding.]

It took about three breaths of time for Liu Zimo to bind all the outstanding disciples and Elders he had never seen before.

A total of sixty new "good brothers" and "good sisters" were added to his account, and the number of binding slots exceeded the total number of people bound by Hutu Peak and Tianchi Peak combined!

After completing the binding, fearing that Zhong Ten Thousand Year might return early, Liu Zimo did not dare to stay on Qingyun Main Peak for long and immediately had the intention to leave.

However, before he could move, a excited and urgent voice came from his sea of consciousness:

"Master! Master, quickly go to the Great Hall ahead and take a look!"

"I can sense a strong soul power inside!"

"Nascent Soul! There must be Nascent Soul bodies, and not just one!"

"Oh no, as soon as I smell their soul power, my saliva starts flowing!"

"..."

Liu Zimo frowned, surprised.

He didn't expect that there would be the aura of Nascent Soul bodies emanating from the Qingyun Great Hall, and his Nascent Soul sixth realm divine sense didn't sense it in advance.

If it weren't for Yao Lingling, the devouring spirit bug that specialized in devouring spiritual soul power, he might have missed it completely.

However, the Great Hall was the face and core of the Qingyun Immortal Gate. It was not easy for an outsider like him to enter, as it was guarded not only by Elders in the Nascent Soul realm but also by layers of killing formations.

"Master, master, why are you hesitating? There is a massive amount of divine soul origin inside. Don't miss this opportunity, it may not come again!"

"As long as you send me in, I can devour them all in minutes!"

Yao Lingling urged eagerly, unable to contain her excitement.

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Zimo decisively nodded and said,

"Alright, I will send you in!"

"However, if you encounter any unknown dangers, I may not have the opportunity to save you!"

The devouring spirit bug was a naturally born spirit body, existing between illusion and reality, and was immune to any formations and soul attacks.

Sending it to the Great Hall of Qingyun is not a difficult task, but Liu Zimo has no idea what the situation is inside the Great Hall.

If there are any traps or deadly crises inside, Yao Lingling will have to deal with them on her own.

"Don't worry, don't worry!"

Seeing Liu Zimo's agreement, Yao Lingling happily exclaimed,

"When it comes to dealing with cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage with physical bodies, I may not have many ways, but all the Nascent Souls inside are their original bodies. They're unlucky to encounter me!"

"Master, don't hesitate anymore, please send me over. I can't wait any longer, I want to have a good meal!"

If it weren't for the Nascent Soul cultivators guarding the front of the Great Hall, it would have been very likely that Yao Lingling would have already flown over on her own without the help of her master.

Liu Zimo nodded slightly, his figure flickered, and he appeared directly in a corner of the Great Hall, concealing himself with secret techniques, and quietly released Yao Lingling from his own sea of consciousness.

Swish!

Yao Lingling swiftly flipped over and directly dove into the formation barrier in front of her, without causing any ripples or disturbances.

Liu Zimo stood still and waited silently.

One breath, two breaths... five breaths, ten breaths...

After about twenty breaths, the formation barrier in front of him rippled again, and a bloated devouring spirit worm, at least ten times larger than before, suddenly appeared, shining with a strong soul fluctuation.

Whoosh!

Liu Zimo immediately collected Yao Lingling into his sea of consciousness, and then swiftly disappeared like lightning!

"Who?!"

Just as Liu Zimo left, three Nascent Soul cultivators appeared at the spot where he had been standing.

Seeing that the place was empty and the formation barrier was still intact, showing no signs of being broken or invaded, the three Nascent Soul cultivators looked at each other with a hint of doubt in their eyes.

"What's going on?"

"I clearly sensed a strange soul fluctuation here just now, why is it gone now?"

"Yeah, I sensed it too. Could it be that a thief sneaked in here and wanted to harm the elders in the hall?"

"It's possible. We need to report this to Senior Brother Head Teacher immediately!"

After discussing for a while, the three of them quickly made a decision.

Two of them continued to guard and investigate, just in case, while the other flew towards Emerald Bamboo Peak to report the abnormal situation to Elder Zhong Ten Thousand Year in person!

A moment later, Zhong Ten Thousand Year hurriedly returned.

Without bothering to ask the three Nascent Soul Elders for details, he anxiously entered the Great Hall and rushed towards the [Prayer Gathering Formation] inside the Great Hall.

Soon, when he saw that the Nascent Soul bodies of the three Sect Ancestors, who had been nurtured in the heart of the formation, had all disappeared, Zhong Ten Thousand Year stumbled, almost falling to the ground.

"Ancestors!"

Zhong Ten Thousand Year exclaimed in grief, his eyes instantly turning red.

"Who on earth?! How dare they plot against our Qingyun Ancestors?!"

Inside the Great Hall, the air was filled with killing intent and cries of sorrow.

Outside the Great Hall, due to the presence of soundproof formations, the others did not hear the cries of the Sect Master and were still unaware of what had happened, their faces filled with curiosity.

It wasn't until the sound of bells rang out from the Soul Sending Hall that everyone realized that something significant had happened.

Swish! Swish!

Dai Yingyu and Zhu Houbin appeared outside the hall at the same time, activating their identity tokens and directly passing through the formation barrier into the Great Hall.

Upon entering the Great Hall, the two immediately heard the usually calm and composed Head Teacher shouting loudly. Dai Yingyu and Zhu Houbin's expressions changed drastically upon seeing this.

"Senior Head Teacher, what happened?"

"Where are the three ancestors? Why weren't they cultivating in the formation? Could it be... the three bell tolls just now..."

Both of them felt a tremor in their hearts and were filled with disbelief.

This is the Great Hall of Qingyun Immortal Gate, the safest place within the gate. Why did the three ancestors who were always cultivating their Nascent Souls in the Great Hall all encounter a calamity at the same time?

Who could have done this?!

When they arrived just now, they didn't notice any abnormalities in the formation inside and outside the Great Hall!

Dai Yingyu and Zhu Houbin were filled with doubts and a chilling feeling.

The other party was able to quietly enter the Great Hall without breaking the defensive formation, and effortlessly eliminate all three Nascent Soul peak-level ancestors, without even making a sound.

This is too terrifying!

All three ancestors were peerless experts at the peak of the Nascent Soul realm!

Even if their physical bodies were destroyed, leaving only three Nascent Soul bodies, they were still Nascent Soul bodies at the peak of the Nascent Soul realm!

Under normal circumstances, even their Senior Head Teacher might not be a match for those three Nascent Soul bodies!

But now, they have all disappeared and perished, not even leaving a trace of their aura!

"Activate the protective formation!"

"Seal off the entire sect!"

"Summon back all the elders and disciples who are outside training!"

"Go invite Senior Yuzhu and the guardian of the scriptures to come out!"

After a moment of mourning, Clock Ten Thousand Year suddenly straightened his body and gritted his teeth, giving orders loudly.

The three most relied-upon ancestors of Qingyun Immortal Gate were all simultaneously plotted against, which meant they had lost the support of three Nascent Soul peak-level powerhouses.

Someone was digging the roots of Qingyun Immortal Gate, severing its inheritance. This was extremely malicious and absolutely cannot be left unresolved!

With the transmission of each command, the entire Qingyun Immortal Gate boiled and began operating at full speed.

The protective formation, which had not been fully activated for a thousand years, was instantly activated with full force.

Sword orders were sent out from the main peak of Qingyun, summoning all disciples who were outside to return to the mountain.

Xing Yuzhu, who had just entered closed-door training, as well as the guardian of the scriptures who had been guarding the library, and other Nascent Soul realm seniors, were all awakened and invited to the Great Hall by Clock Ten Thousand Year!

For a while, the entire Qingyun Immortal Gate mobilized and prepared for battle, creating an atmosphere of unprecedented tension and killing intent.

Meanwhile, the instigator of this incident, Liu Zimo, quietly slipped back to his own servant's dormitory and went to sleep, ignoring the commotion outside.

Now, even if he were slow to react, he knew that he and Yao Lingling had stirred up a hornet's nest in Qingyun Immortal Gate.

The three Nascent Soul bodies that Yao Lingling devoured in the Great Hall of Qingyun were definitely extraordinary.

Otherwise, Clock Ten Thousand Year wouldn't be so grief-stricken and nervous, even activating the protective formation as if he had lost his own father!

Unless something unexpected happens, it will probably be difficult for him to leave the sect gate for a long time!

However, for Liu Zimo, this is not necessarily bad news.

With the sect gate closed and the formation activated, it means he can stay in Qingyun Immortal Gate for a while longer and gain more strength.

Of course, the premise is that Clock Ten Thousand Year and the others won't cast suspicious eyes on him, a servant disciple.
