Chapter 787 - 879 Selling Bone Tokens
Merak Flying Sword is a divine technique created by Zuoqiu Yiren.
After Zuoqiu Yiren gained fame, the Merak Flying Sword she created also became known, as Zuoqiu Yiren was so strong that people naturally wanted to study the divine techniques she developed.
The Merak Flying Sword indeed possesses formidable power, and its unique execution style makes it as renowned as the name "Shuangxian of Qiuyi."
Now, seeing her disciple wielding the Merak Flying Sword, it inevitably causes a stir.
"It seems Zuoqiu Yiren really cares about her disciple, seeing as she has taught him the Merak Flying Sword."
"So powerful, it can even smash an upper-grade magical artifact."
"Back when Fairy Zuoqiu joined the Daoist Alliance assessment, she entered with the highest score. Can Chen Mo achieve that?"
"Don’t even think about it. With Senior Brother Xiao around, he doesn’t stand a chance at first place."
"Even if he isn’t first place, judging by his performance in the Tai Chi Diagram, if he joins the Daoist Alliance, his future achievements will undoubtedly be limitless."
...
There was much discussion in the outside world.
Meanwhile, Wang Di, during his unyielding cries, activated a green rune and was transported away, dropping a bone token from his body.
The other people trapped within the Thunder Array turned pale.
Exactly.
Chen Mo and his two companions hadn’t even taken action yet.
They not only had to deal with the array and the attacks from Xuan Kui but also face the sneak attacks from Chen Mo’s flying sword, turning their desperate situation into a hopeless one.
"It’s your turn." Chen Mo’s eyes sharpened as his gaze fell on Xu Yong, directing Tian Wen to shoot violently towards him.
During its rapid flight, Tian Wen split into three and hid in the void.
Merak Flying Sword—Hidden Sword.
Xu Yong had to fend off the attack from Silver Thunder and also guard against potential assaults from Xuan Kui.
Now, Chen Mo also made his move.
Xu Yong was on the verge of collapse.
Just after narrowly avoiding the Silver Thunder, the Tian Wen hidden in the void appeared behind Xu Yong, the three blades converging into one, striking him directly.
"Buzz!"
The green rune on Xu Yong’s chest was triggered, and a green energy shield blocked Tian Wen.
"No..." Xu Yong seemed to sense something and struggled desperately, but it was too late.
This green rune was condensed from the Power of Origin used by the sect leaders through the Tai Chi Diagram. Once triggered, how could Xu Yong in the Nascent Soul Realm resist it?
The green shield promptly turned into a green black hole, swallowing Xu Yong.
And this signified his elimination.
As Xu Yong’s figure disappeared in the Tai Chi Diagram.
Han Zijing’s pretty face soured directly.
Previously, she had even mocked Zuoqiu Yiren, claiming she would take care of Zuoqiu Yiren’s disciple...
But now, all three of her direct disciples were eliminated by a single disciple of Zuoqiu Yiren.
Han Zijing bit her red lip, knowing full well that her three disciples were all of Nascent Soul cultivation.
If nothing unexpected happened, with their strength they definitely could pass the Daoist Alliance assessment and become disciples of the Daoist Alliance.
But now, they were all mercilessly eliminated, only able to wait for the next opportunity in five years.
Resentment and regret took over her features.
Ultimately, she blamed Zuoqiu Yiren for all this.
"Why, why do you always have to oppose me, claiming all the good things for yourself? The master favors you, the senior brother likes you..." Han Zijing tightly gripped her hand, a trace of malice flashing in her eyes.
...
Inside the Tai Chi Diagram.
Taking a lesson from Wang Di’s example.
This time, Chen Mo spared none.
All the contestants Zhu had found were eliminated.
For a moment, Chen Mo held twenty-three bone tokens in his hands, leaving the outside spectators dumbfounded.
"Why push me to take action?"
Looking at these bone tokens in his hand, Chen Mo sighed softly.
Ever since coming to Eight Trigrams City, he never voluntarily provoked anyone.
Yet they opposed him at every turn due to some rumor spread by an unknown source.
Now, they all ended up being eliminated.
Ice Spirit, with her long legs, walked over, expressing concern, "You eliminated so many people all at once, you’ve thoroughly offended the disciples of every faction. Xiao Qingtian and Lan Chengting might come seeking revenge."
"They came to provoke me first, and if I let them go, who knows if they would, like Wang Di earlier, rally more people against me? Better to eliminate them first, fewer opponents that way."
Chen Mo said calmly, whether he eliminated them or not, their attitude towards him wouldn’t change anyway. They still saw him as an enemy, so why let them off?
Ice Spirit pursed her lips, putting her hands on her hips, and said softly, "Either way, you did it to help me, young lady. Don’t worry, if Xiao Qingtian and Lan Chengting do come, I’ll help you."
"Just don’t say those neurotic things you said before, and you’d be helping me."
Based on the simulation, the only person to deal with next would be Xiao Qingtian.
But to be fair, from the simulation content, Xiao Qingtian seems to be a person of character.
He actually rejected Yu Jinwu’s offer of alliance to have a one-on-one duel with me.
If Xiao Qingtian had agreed, with his half-step Divinity Transformation strength, along with those people, he would have an absolute advantage.
"Why are you like this, really don’t know why Zhao Fujin would like someone like you." Hearing this, Ice Spirit stamped her foot in anger, then said, "Then you just stay here waiting for Xiao Qingtian and others’ revenge, missy won’t bother with you anymore."
After speaking, she took steps to walk out of the forest.
However, she paced slowly, waiting for Chen Mo to call her back.
Yet, Chen Mo had no intention of calling her back.
"You..." Ice Spirit stamped her foot in anger again, came over and pointed at Chen Mo, "I know how to repay a favor. After helping you deal with Xiao Qingtian and the rest, missy will owe you nothing, and we’ll be even."
"..."
Chen Mo gave Ice Spirit a glance, arranged the array again, and then lay back on the tree.
Since he had enough bone tokens, he just needed to wait for the time to end.
As for the extra bone tokens, he had his own plans.
And Chen Mo’s attitude made Ice Spirit furious.
"Trying to play hard to get? This missy won’t fall for it..."
...
Next, a surprising situation occurred that shocked all contestants in the Tai Chi Diagram.
In their perception, over twenty bone tokens were gathered in one place.
This meant at least more than twenty people were gathered.
This caused some solo contenders to not dare head there.
Very soon, another day passed.
With only just over a day left before the end of the competition.
Those who had been waiting to take action until then began to move.
Bai Hua was one of them.
Similarly, he didn’t head towards Chen Mo, seeing as over twenty bone tokens were gathered in one place, indicating a small team. Bai Hua had no interest in dealing with such a tough situation.
However, at this moment, he heard a rumor that Chen Mo was selling bone tokens.
