Zhuo Ming Made Her Name
Fu Zongjue tried to enter the range of the Great Dao Tree using his Puppet Body.
Upon discovering that the Longevity Trial still existed, the Azure Sun Puppet began to stiffen after only a few steps, and even its outer shell began to crack.
Chen Mobai, who was outside, immediately used the rope he had prepared to pull him out.
"From now on, disciples of my sect will be prohibited from coming to this area of the Great Dao Tree. In any case, over the years, only you and Hong He have benefited."
After trying it out, Fu Zongjue felt that the Great Dao Tree posed more danger than opportunity for the disciples of the Divine Wood Sect, so he simply suggested giving up.
Chen Mobai nodded in agreement.
Although he had attained Major Realm of swordsmanship within the Great Dao Tree, Third-tier Perfection Yi Wood Divine Thunder, establishing his invincible reputation among his peers, he still agreed with Fu Zongjue's idea compared to the potential dangers.
For the many disciples of the Divine Wood Sect, being able to obtain opportunities from the Magic Treasure Tree and the Talent Tree is already considered very fortunate.
For them, the Longevity Trial where the Great Dao Tree was located was truly just a trial.
After agreeing on the terms, Fu Zongjue brought in one of his Third Grade Puppet Body from outside, along with a set of array flags.
Without needing Chen Mobai's help, Fu Zongjue pointed his finger, and under the Animate Plants as Soldiers Technique, one after another Crimson Sun Spirit Tree transformed into tree people, setting up the array flags Formation Disk according to his will.
Once the Array Formation is activated, it will ensure that Divine Wood Sect disciples will not accidentally wander into this place out of curiosity.
After a busy day, the two left the Divine Tree Secret Realm.
At the signal from the true form of Old Ancestor Fu beside him, Lu Yi, who was waiting outside, reopened the secret realm portal. Opening it repeatedly in such a short time had nearly killed him, and he only recovered after Meng Hong helped him out.
"Senior Brother Lu, after the Sect Grand Competition, my disciple will be entering the secret realm. I will need your help again then."
After Fu Zongjue left after resolving the matter, Chen Mobai smiled and said to Lu Yi, who was pale-faced and waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that he was old and needed to rest for a year or two before he could start again with full energy.
"Senior Brother Lu has worked hard for the sect. Take these Second Tier Spirit Rice to replenish your vital energy."
Since everyone present was an acquaintance, Chen Mobai didn't stand on ceremony and handed him the twenty catties of Green Jade Spirit Rice that he had prepared in advance. Lu Yi's eyes lit up immediately, and after glancing at Meng Hong, he accepted it with a smile.
"You're young, but you act just like us old guys. Leave this to me. Just call me after the Sect Grand Competition."
After resolving the matter of the Divine Tree Secret Realm, Chen Mobai felt relieved.
When he returned to Divine Wood City, he witnessed Zhuo Ming displaying his prowess on the arena.
She and Tan Qianshi, the true disciple of the Body Refining Department, neither dodged nor avoided, exchanging punches one after another. After twelve consecutive punches, Tan Qianshi could no longer withstand the power of mountains and rivers contained in Zhuo Ming's fists. He spat out blood, his proud Earth Spirit Body was broken, his ribcage was fractured, and he was sent flying off the stage.
If the Foundation Establishment Elder was presiding over the Sect Grand Competition hadn't caught him, his injuries would probably have been even more severe after he landed.
"The winner Zhuo Ming!"
When Foundation Establishment Elder Chi Tong saw Tan Qianshi's miserable state, he frowned but still announced the result.
He also knew Zhuo Ming's background. Now, in the entire Divine Wood Sect, apart from the two patriarchs, there is only the Little South Mountain Lineage.
Chi Tong first stabilized Tan Qianshi's injuries, and then released him. After all, he was not his disciple, and Tan Qianshi would have to heal his injuries on his own.
However, this is the most crucial True Disciple Battle.
After Zhuo Ming won, he replaced Tan Qianshi and became one of the Twenty-Four True Disciples of the Divine Wood Sect.
Tan Qianshi stood up with a pale face, looking at the girl in the khaki long robe who was standing on the arena, whom he had never paid any attention to before, still with disbelief on his face.
"Nine Ren Dharma Body, you actually mastered the Nine Ren Dharma Body!"
As a disciple of the Body Tempering Department, Tan Qianshi naturally knew about this top-tier body tempering method with the Eastern Wilderness Earth attribute. The threshold for this technique was extremely high, and even in the summit of Mount Han, only a handful of people had mastered it.
The last one to master it Ji Daoyuan, was known as one of the Five-Colored Immortal Seed. He used it to run rampant in the Eastern Wasteland. Among those of the same Qi Refining level, even the true disciples of Golden Light Cliff were helpless against him.
After Ji Daoyuan was killed by Chen Mobai, this technique was actually mastered by Chen Mobai's disciple.
Before stepping onto the stage, Tan Qianshi didn't even know who Zhuo Ming was.
Although he had heard from his junior brothers about his opponent's background, among the Little South Mountain Lineage, apart from the number one Sword Cultivator of the Divine Wood Sect, only Luo Yixuan was someone he feared.
Although Liu Wenbai had also been a disciple of the true lineage over the years, Tan Qianshi felt that as long as he was serious, he could easily defeat Liu Wenbai.
Luo Yixuan has consistently ranked among the top three disciples in recent years, not only because of her outstanding appearance, but also because of her genuine skills. In fact, after the battle that destroyed the summit of Mountain Shaking Peak, the glory of disciples following their master has become the face of this generation of disciples of the Divine Wood Sect.
Its fame has spread throughout half of the Eastern Wasteland.
Whether they are disciples of major sects or Rogue Cultivator, everyone knows that the Divine Wood Sect has a "South Mountain Fairy" with an ethereal beauty and outstanding cultivation.
Who is Zhuo Ming?
Is there such a person in the Little South Mountain Lineage? It turns out that he relied on the Second Tier Magic Tool, the Divine Wood Shield, to get through. After seeing Zhuo Ming Tan Qianshi nervously take out the Divine Wood Shield, Tan Qianshi calmly took out a Second Grade spirit talisman and briefly sealed the opponent's Magic Artifact.
Then, with a confident expression, he threw a punch, which landed heavily on Zhuo Ming's shoulder.
With a dull thud, it sounded like something hitting a rock.
He's also a body tempering cultivator...
Tan Qianshi, seeing an opportunity, was overjoyed and began exchanging punches with Zhuo Ming. Soon after, half of his body was nearly crushed by Zhuo Ming's fists.
After the crushing defeat, Tan Qianshi had already figured out Zhuo Ming's body-tempering technique, and he was shocked.
As soon as he spoke, the Divine Wood Sect disciples watching the battle all turned solemn, especially those who had made it to the final Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer.
After the Nine Ren Dharma Body reached its first level, they could only break through its defenses by using Second Grade Magic Artifact or spells, but Zhuo Ming also possessed the Divine Wood Shield.
Even if Li Yixian, the former Top True Disciple disciple Second Grade Puppetry, were to make a move, he would probably be extremely troubled and not know how to proceed.
"You need to take care of yourself, otherwise your muscles and bones will not recover well, which may affect your future Dao Path."
Just then, Zhuo Ming came down. She also realized that her punch seemed a bit heavy. The main reason was that when her previous opponents saw her take out the Second Grade Divine Wood Shield, they all forfeited with pale faces. Tan Qianshi her head-on.
Seeing that her opponent was seriously injured, Zhuo Ming took out a Regeneration Talisman from her storage bag and slapped it on him. Over the years, she had been well protected by Chen Mobai and farmed every day, so she was kind-hearted.
"Thank you... Sister Zhuo!"
Tan Qianshi felt that he could move around with difficulty, so he took out a bottle of healing medicine and swallowed it. Before leaving, he thanked Zhuo Ming with a slightly embarrassed expression.
"I started learning later than you, so you can just call me junior sister."
Zhuo Ming called out to Tan Qianshi's retreating figure, but the latter walked away without turning his head.
"You are better than him, so it's right for him to call you senior sister."
Xi Jinghuo walked over at some point. As the Chief of the Sword Cultivation Department, he had defeated his opponent and become a true disciple. Because he often came to Little South Mountain, he had a good relationship with Zhuo Ming.
"That won't do. Master said that within the Little South Mountain sect, seniority is not determined by cultivation level."
Zhuo Ming shook her head, indicating that Xi Jinghuo was wrong.
"I originally thought that after Luo Yixuan and Li Yixian Foundation Establishment, the position of the Top True Disciple was a sure thing. I didn't expect that there would still be a sleeping tiger like you."
Xi Jinghuo clicked his tongue. As a second-generation immortal of the Divine Wood Sect, he had abundant resources and received personal guidance from Xi Yisheng, the Deputy Minister of the Sword Cultivation Department. He had also visited Golden Light Cliff many times to exchange and learn, and had already reached the peak of sword qi. Last year, Li Yixian's Azure Sun Puppet almost couldn't suppress his flying sword.
Without the two of them this year, Xi Jinghuo, whose sword energy had become more refined and mature, originally felt very lonely.
But seeing Zhuo Ming and Tan Qianshi clash twelve punches in succession, completely shattering the physique that this true disciple of the Body Refining Department was most proud of, Sword Heart began to boil with a long-lost passion.
"I'm probably no match for you. I'll just need to get the position of true disciple with Senior Brother Liu."
Although Zhuo Ming felt that she was somewhat powerful, she did not think she could compete for the Top True Disciple. She felt that she might not even be able to beat Liu Wenbai, let alone Xi Jinghuo, a genius Sword Cultivator.
"Among this generation, no one but you can catch my flying sword!"
Xi Jinghuo left those words behind and departed from the arena.
After learning that Zhuo Ming had mastered the Nine Ren Dharma Body, everyone agreed with Xi Jinghuo's judgment.
In an instant, Zhuo Ming became the most popular name among the Qi Cultivation Disciple the Divine Wood Sect.
The second senior sister of Little South Mountain is devoted to farming and cultivating Spirit Plant. She is not good at fighting, but she has exceptional talent, no less than Ji Daoyuan of the Mountain Shaking Peak.
If Luo Yixuan hadn't successfully Foundation Establishment, and Little South Mountain hadn't needed another disciple to Qi Refining sect, plus the Foundation Establishment was about to be completed, Zhuo Ming might not have been willing to show his talent.
As expected of Chen Mobai's disciple, his personality is just like his.
He could have become famous through his cultivation, but he prefers farming.
"Master, am I really that powerful?"
Zhuo Ming had heard everyone's comments and admiration for her along the way, and when he returned, he was still a little incredulous. He murmured to Chen Mobai, " I can't believe it."
"In the entire Eastern Wasteland, apart from your master, you need not fear anyone of the same cultivation level."
Chen Mobai knew that Zhuo Ming lacked confidence. Apart from himself, who had cheated and could activate the sword rainbow, no one in the Qi Refining realm could kill her.
"So, you're saying I won't embarrass you, Master!"
After Zhuo Ming understood, Xiao Yuan looked relieved, but her first reaction was this.
"Not only will you not lose face, but you will also make your master look good."
Liu Wenbai, standing to the side, was filled with envy. When he saw Luo Yixuan, who had already successfully Foundation Establishment and was standing next to Chen Mobai, he, as the senior brother, felt ashamed.
With both of his junior sisters being so capable, he, as the senior brother, is under a lot of pressure.
"Next, you don't need to hold back anymore. Go and help Little South Mountain get another Top True Disciple."
After Zhuo Ming roughly understood her own strength, upon hearing Chen Mobai's words, she felt a surge of immense motivation welling up inside her. She clenched her fists and nodded heavily.
"Master, I will not let you down!"
"Master, I will also try my best."
Liu Wenbai also spoke up, puffing out his chest, feeling that he couldn't let his junior sister steal the spotlight. In the round of 24 to 12, he encountered Niu Longyuan, a true disciple of the Spirit Beast Department. The latter had borrowed a Second Grade Old Yellow Ox, whose strength in beast taming was no less than that of Li Yixian, who possessed Second Grade Puppetry.
The battle between the two was absolutely spectacular, with both fighting to their last breath.
In the end, Liu Wenbai relied on the defense of the Azure Scale Armguard to hold out until his opponent's spiritual power was exhausted. He then took out the Gold Jade Axe and defeated the Old Yellow Ox with one blow, cutting off one of its horns.
But after entering the top twelve, Liu Wenbai felt that he had reached his limit. Sure enough, in the next round, he encountered Guan Xiaolong from the Array Department. The latter used softness to overcome hardness and did not give him a chance to use the Gold Jade Axe. He was sent out of the arena by a maze formation.
Although it was a pity to stop at the top twelve, at least we were guaranteed a Foundation Establishment Pill.
After feeling frustrated for a while, Liu Wenbai quickly adjusted his mindset and started cheering Zhuo Ming on.
Having cultivated the Nine Ren Dharma Body and possessed the Divine Wood Shield, Zhuo Ming remained cautious and defensive throughout, allowing her opponents to attack. As long as they couldn't break through her defenses, she would win once her opponents' spiritual energy was exhausted.
Of course, some opponents might try to stall, but Zhuo Ming also possesses the Purple Fire Sword Talisman bestowed upon her by Chen Mobai. If she were to take the initiative to use this Talisman, unless they possessed her level of defense and Second Tier Magic Tool, any true disciple would suffer a crushing defeat.
Zhuo Ming fought her way through the competition, defeating Jiang Zongheng of the Transmission Department in the top twelve, and helping Liu Wenbai avenge himself by using the Purple Fire Sword Talisman to break Guan Xiaolong's Array Formation.
In the battle for the top three, she faced off against an acquaintance of Chen Mobai, Ding Ying, a true disciple of the Talisman Department.
After Foundation Establishment Failure, Ding Ying has recovered over the years and is now even stronger. The beautiful and confident Ding Ying was once Zhuo Ming's role model.
When Zhuo Ming first left New Bud Hall, her only dream was to join the Talisman Department, learn one or two Talisman -making techniques, and live a peaceful life in the Divine Wood Sect.
Unfortunately, her applications went unanswered several times.
Having exhausted all other options, she wanted to participate in the Sect Grand Competition to showcase herself, but unexpectedly, she encountered Chen Mobai, which led to a defeat that would change her destiny.
"Senior Sister Ding, please give me your guidance!"
Zhuo Ming saw Ding Ying, who was facing her with a solemn expression and had activated the Heavenly Wood Talisman and Domain Expansion, suddenly smile and take out a colorful umbrella from her storage bag.
She opened the umbrella, but did not use the defensive power of this Magic Artifact. Instead, she let Ding Ying scatter the leaves and petals that flew everywhere, pricking her body from all over.
Amidst a series of crisp clanging sounds, Zhuo Ming approached Ding Ying, who was standing beneath the tree seed, and raised her fist.
Thud! Thud! Thud!...
After thirteen consecutive punches, Ding Ying coughed up blood and was thrown off the stage, her face pale.
Ten years ago, she lost to Chen Mobai.
Ten years later, she lost to Chen Mobai's disciple! At this moment, Ding Ying looked at Zhuo Ming, who was holding Flower Umbrella on the stage, confident and proud, and felt a sense of shame.
