C366 The New Competition of Sky Sovereign City
Three to five days passed by quickly.
At this time, the Heaven Sovereign City had returned to its normal state as it had been for a long time.
Everyone's focus was still on cultivation, even the cultivators in the high realm were no exception.
However, there was never a lack of competition in the Middle North area. As the core of the Middle North area, there would also be plenty of competition.
The battle for the Magic Sword s had a certain amount of momentum over the years. However, in the eyes of the traditional cultivators from aristocratic families, they were merely there for the children and cultivators with Essencial Core Rank to practice with. True cultivators at the peak of the Yuan Dan or Empty Meditative Rank would not casually touch this.
Wasting your time.
Therefore, the Empty Meditative Rank cultivators that Xiao Xinghe brought with him that time, were not much in the high realm. However, in the battle for the Magic Sword, it could already be considered a top tier strength.
At that moment, although the fluctuations from the Magic Sword had just disappeared, there was still a huge challenge coming his way.
It was for no other reason but to the side of the Heaven Sovereign City. He discovered another vein mine of jade, and it was a large-scale vein mine at that!
As I said before, the current currency in the cultivation world is the Jade Scallop that was released by One Origin Sect. Of course, even with a power like One Origin Sect, it was impossible to resolve this kind of monopoly with a single word.
Of course they had to share the benefits.
Thus, the required ingredients were these types of jade materials, and could be considered to pacify the various Aristocratic Sect in the area.
And every time a new jade deposit was discovered in the Middle North Grounds, it would give rise to an intense competition for it. This time was no exception.
This was not a competition between Magic Sword, so a few cultivators from Essencial Core Rank could participate in this. Every vein mine of jade could at least bring about terrifying profits for the next ten years. It had always been a place where cultivators above the Empty Meditative Rank could take action!
Even if Tranquil Extinction Rank himself were to participate, it wouldn't be surprising.
Within the Imperial Palace, in an extremely luxurious courtyard house, the tall eaves and overlapping buildings displayed the identity of the owner.
This was just a side courtyard of the Xiao Family.
In the main hall of this courtyard, two cultivators from the Xiao Family were currently conversing.
Sitting at the head of the table was a white-haired cultivator. He looked very old. However, his face was rosy and he didn't look old at all.
This kind of cultivator clearly had an extremely high level of cultivation.
Beside him sat a young man with an extraordinary charm and charm. He was smiling faintly. And this person was Xiao Xinghe who had appeared outside of Heaven Sovereign City a few days ago.
Due to the difference in speed between inside and outside the Mystery City, more than a month's time had actually already passed inside, but only less than five days had passed in the outside world.
"... This time, we have discovered the vein mine for the jade. According to our usual practice, the Venerable family in Gaotou will decide on the location for the competition. " The old man said slowly, "So, do you have anything to say about this competition?"
Here, we need to briefly introduce the general competition situation in Heaven Sovereign City. If there were new discoveries like this, everyone would choose a different location to have a "fair" competition.
This rule didn't exist in the beginning. At that time, the competition was also a direct result of Guo Guo's bayonet meeting red. If he wanted a vein mine, he could just directly send people to snatch it.
As for not being able to beat them and being killed in the end, no one will sympathize with you.
However, over time, most of the families with Heaven Sovereign City knew that this method wasn't feasible. Especially for the powerful family of the High Que — only a thousand days of being a thief, there's no thousand days of being a thief.
As the stall grew bigger, even the aristocratic families in the high school didn't want to deal with the berserk counterattack from the other aristocratic families. Even if they wanted to withdraw a portion of their vested interests, it wouldn't be easy to control them.
If his first action wasn't good, then the other Aristocratic Sect would think that he was the leader of a huge building, and wouldn't be able to handle it.
Other small Aristocratic Sect also wanted to end this chaotic competition. This was because a single failure during the competition could cause the majority of the clan's forces to be annihilated, so who would be able to endure this.
Therefore, when new vein mines appeared in the future, the powers in the Heaven Sovereign City would choose a different location to compete in, through the selection of teams from each clan, for the right to ownership.1
Once the competition here was over, they could not take action to seize it. Otherwise, they would be suppressed by the combined forces of other aristocratic families.
The aristocratic families in Gao Que were, of course, very satisfied with such an outcome, but the other Aristocratic Sect s were obviously not happy with such an outcome. They had joined hands to push for another rule. Once a cultivator successfully participated in a competition, they would not be able to participate again for five years.
Due to the large stalls of the aristocratic families in Gaotou, there weren't many high level cultivators, allowing the other middle and small cultivators to have a taste of the soup.
This rule would continue, and this time was no exception.
And the reason why this old man came to ask for Xiao Xinghe's opinion, was because over these years, this young man had already faintly become the leader of Xiao Family's younger generation.
Even the cultivators of the older generation would unknowingly ask for his opinion on many issues.
Xiao Xinghe had a faint smile on his face. Obviously, he had walked out from the shadow where Xia Ling played with him five days ago. He asked the old man: "The choice of location for this competition is decided by my Xiao Family, right?"
The old man nodded and said, "That's right. According to the order, it should be my Xiao Family's turn this time around."
The time and place for the competition had always been grasped within the Aristocratic Sect of Gao Que. This was an important power, and the highest power in the Heaven Sovereign City would not easily allow it. And according to the order from the past, this time, it just so happens to be Xiao Family.
Xiao Xinghe thought for a while and slowly showed an expression of interest. He said, "I don't think so. It should be placed in the valley where the Magic Sword disappeared a few days ago."
"Hmm?" A look of confusion suddenly appeared in the old man's eyes as he asked, "Why did you choose that place?"
Xiao Xinghe pondered for a moment and explained, "Actually, from that day onwards, I did not believe that Magic Sword could really escape under my nose."
"They must have used some hidden method. They should still be there." Even in their current environment, they would still be able to hide. However, if the competition were to be held there, the resulting commotion would be huge. "
Xiao Xinghe didn't know what his obsession was, it was just that his previous plans were always unfavorable. But this time, he suffered a huge loss against an unknown brat.
That's right, even if Xia Ling was an alchemist with Sixth Class, in the eyes of Xiao Xinghe who came from a powerful family, he was just a nameless brat.
Therefore, Xiao Xinghe couldn't let him off that easily!
