Chapter 1217 - 1077: Immortal Sect Tournament
"That array is nothing but a trap. If you enter it and want to come out, you can only rely on someone else entering to replace you. Do you know what the consequence of such an action is?"Shi Potian asked.
"I know, it means a lot of cannon fodder will be sent in to die!"
Duan Gujin pondered briefly and came to this conclusion.
"Exactly, that array is clearly designed to continuously send cannon fodder inside, then use them as offerings to maintain the array's operation! There indeed might be some treasure in that place, but I'm telling you, unless you have extremely amazing strength, I advise you not to try it! Both of our strengths are too weak now, let's not take the risk!"
Shi Potian said earnestly.
"Okay, I understand!"
Duan Gujin nodded hastily.
In his heart, he guessed that Shi Potian would definitely return to that place once his strength had increased sufficiently to take the risk.
For Shi Potian, the place previously held something worth searching for.
However, Duan Gujin had little interest in the treasure from that place.
The adventure of Duan Gujin and Shi Potian at Beihuai Ancient Plain ended in failure. Initially, Shi Potian thought that the two of them together might obtain the treasure.
Yet, the course of events completely exceeded his expectations. It was only at the end that he realized it was impossible to get the treasures within his current strength.
Even though he felt it was a pity, he also understood very well that his strength was still too weak.
He reconsidered and thought that he might ought to give up on the treasures within those ruins.
The treasures and swordsmanship of Sword God Wu Fu eventually fell into the hands of Xu Chi, who had reached the Supreme God Realm.
Clearly, the gap in strength between him and Xu Chi was too large now.
Xu Chi being able to obtain Sword God Wu Fu's treasures and swordsmanship didn't mean he could attain them too.
Therefore, Shi Potian knew that unless his luck was good enough, he couldn't find Sword God Wu Fu's treasures and swordsmanship.
Before, Duan Gujin just tagged along with Shi Potian to see the world.
Now he knew that it was tough for the two of them to find treasures and swordsmanship from the so-called Sword God's Tomb. He suspected the tomb was a massive sealing array.
To seal certain special ancient gods and demons, Sword God Wu Fu set up a special array inside, letting some adventurers intrude and sustain the array's operation with their lives.
For reasons unknown, Sword God's Tomb had been buried long ago, and no one knew of its existence.
It was said that Xu Chi discovered the Sword God's Tomb by chance.
"Looks like in the end, Sword God's Tomb will indeed be taken by Xu Chi!"
Duan Gujin had no notion of feeling content or discontent; in the previous life, it was Xu Chi who learned Sword God Wu Fu's swordsmanship.
Logically speaking, that swordsmanship of Sword God Wu Fu should belong to Xu Chi.
Two days later, Duan Gujin and Shi Potian were awakened by a sudden urgent noise from outside.
They quickly ran out of their small courtyard to find out what was happening, only to realize many disciples had returned.
"Disciples of Ascension Academy, everyone quickly go outside to help, many are injured!"
At this moment, a heavy female voice echoed from the sky.
Duan Gujin and Shi Potian immediately rushed out, swiftly arriving at the playground.
On the playground, they saw numerous martial artists covered in blood lying on the ground, knowing they must be returning from the front line. They promptly approached and asked the elders how they could help the injured martial artists.
The elder quickly gave them some elixir pills, instructing them to circulate their own primordial power and administer the pills to the wounded martial artists.
Duan Gujin and Shi Potian readily complied.
After a busy half-day, they finally managed to heal the surface wounds of those injured martial artists.
Although the martial artists no longer appeared injured from the outside, their internal injuries were not thoroughly healed.
Upon inquiry, Duan Gujin and Shi Potian learned that the majority of Ascension Academy's disciples had retreated from the Black Hole World.
"The Immortal Domain has dispatched many immortals' spirit bodies to temporarily alter the Rule Power of the Black Hole World!"
Soon, such news spread.
Initially, Duan Gujin and others found it hard to believe, but eventually, the dean of Ascension Academy personally came out to confirm the truth.
"Everyone, we don't need to worry about the Black Hole World for now. The immortals from the Immortal Domain have intervened and temporarily sealed it!"
Upon hearing this, everyone rejoiced.
To them, it meant they wouldn't have to go to the battlefront for some time.
Previously, the disciples had no idea how terrifying the exotic realm creatures were until they fought them in the Black Hole World, experiencing firsthand their dreadfulness.
Next, some martial artists asked until when the immortals of the Immortal Domain planned to seal the Black Hole World.
The dean of Ascension Academy told the gathered disciples, "You don't need to worry about that right now; at least for the next year, you won't have to go to the front lines!"
Several martial artists cheered.
Not having to be on the front lines was the best news for them.
