The Rilan Star River King is average in appearance, with a large nose and small eyes. Rather, it was the Star River King’s floating belt tied around his head that gave him a bit of grandeur. Compared to the average looking Star River King, the woman beside him made Ning Cheng feel stunning.
“That beautiful woman should be the Whirling Jade Consort, right? No wonder this place is called Whirling Jade City.” Ning Cheng said in a small voice. This woman was so beautiful that it made sense for the Leland Star River King to dote on her.
The beauty of the Whirling Jade Consort was completely different from that of Shi Yu Lan, one was like a bud that had not yet opened, while the other was already a dazzling rose in bloom.
“Keep your voice down, don’t talk casually here.” Shi Yulan hurriedly said, she had seen the Star River King and knew how terrifying it was, even if they talked in a low voice here, it might reach the ears of the Leland King.
Ning Cheng smiled and did not continue speaking. His words were all bundled with sound, and it was impossible for the Leland Star River King to hear his voice even if he was at the Heavenly Plane Realm. Rather, it was Shi Yu Lan’s words just now that could possibly be heard.
The Leland Star River King, with his beautiful concubine, floated down on the main altar of Leland Square, and his divine sense swept through the entire square.
When his divine sense swept over Ning Cheng’s body, Ning Cheng felt a coldness all over his body, as if he was naked and appearing under the gaze of others. Ning Cheng knew that this was an illusion, but the terror of this Star River King was thus evident. This was still a Star River King of the most ordinary Star River, if it was a powerful Star River King, there was no telling how powerful it would be.
Only when the square was silent did the Leland Star River King say aloud, “I am very happy today, those who have come here are the elites of my Leland Star River, in the future the Leland Star River is yours, and the Man Lun Star Sky will also have your shadow. I hope that in the future, outside the Manlun Sky, a strong man will say that he comes from the Leland Star River, and that is what makes me happiest.
The Manlun Starry Sky is also holding the Star Peeping Realm Genius Selection Tournament in order to break out of our starry sky and enter the vast universe. My Leland Star River is full of geniuses, and there are a million and sixteen thousand Star Peeping Realm geniuses who can be selected to participate in the Leland Star River competition. I would hate for all these geniuses to enter the Time Desolate Domain, but there are too many star rivers in the entire Manlun Starry Sky, not just our one Leland Starry River.
We at Leland Star River can only select another 10,000 geniuses of geniuses to enter the Time Desolate Realm among these one million or so geniuses. All of them know what entering the Time Desolate Domain means to a starry sky cultivator. It means that one can go farther and charge higher in the future ……”
The sound of thunderous cheers showed that the Leland Star River King still had a certain level of support.
With a smile on his face, the Liran Star River King raised his hand and waved it, continuing, “Because there are too many geniuses participating in the competition, we are using a one-time decision method to decide in one day ……”
Ning Cheng already knew the method of selection and still paid attention to listen. If he could, he also wanted to help the three Jing Wuming. As for Ruan Mingshu, he was sure that the other party would be able to pass the selection and did not need him to care. To complete the selection of a million cultivators in one day was indeed very fast.
“Many people already know that this selection is coming through the Leland Star River’s Ninth Order Arcane Formation. The Leland Star River’s Ao Formation was formed by the number one Ao Formation Master of the Man Lun Star Space, Dazzling Mingzi, who led the formation, and it was fair and just for all of us. The 10,000 geniuses who can get the furthest out of our Leland Star River’s Ninth Order Ao Formation will represent Leland Star River to Man Lun Star Space ……”
The Liran Star River King was still talking on the stage, and there were already some small murmurs from below.
Ning Cheng had never seen an Ao Formation before, he had heard Ruan Mingshu say before that there were some differences between Ao Formations and formations. Passing the Ao Formation barrier did not rely mainly on the level of the formation, but rather on star element power, divine sense strength, perceptive ability, and the ability to project and combine. It was somewhat like the gambling formations in casinos in general, and I heard that gambling formations were an offshoot of Ao Formations.
The number of levels in an Ao Formation is indeterminate; Leland Xinghe’s nine-level Ao Formation means that this Ao Formation has nine levels. The passage of each level is related to the cultivator’s astral energy, divine sense, and also perceptive ability.
“The entrance and exit of the Leland Star River’s Ao Formation has been arranged in Leland Plaza, and the results of the participating geniuses will also be displayed on the formation display in Leland Plaza, the competition will now begin ……”
Immediately after the Liran Star River King finished speaking, he flew up from the high altar carrying his consort and landed on the viewing main stage off to the side.
A moment later, the main altar he had just been standing on automatically sunken down, and then a huge teleportation formation gate appeared. A bearded old man appeared next to the gate, took out a jade pillar and erected it, then said, “All practitioners participating in the selection process, please take out your identity jade tags and hang them on your chest, then enter the teleportation gate. Those who are not participants please do not enter, otherwise they will be directly blocked back and killed on the spot ……”
After this old man finished speaking, he dodged and stood to the side. Numerous participating cultivators hung their jade tags on their chests and walked into the teleportation formation gate.
The ten blank formation displays in the middle of Leland’s Grand Plaza also quickly had more names.
“Senior Brother Ning, let’s both go in together later, so we can have a lookout.” Ruan Mingshu walked up to Ning Cheng’s side and said in a small voice.
Ning Cheng took out the jade token and hung it on his chest, then asked, “Senior Sister Mingshu, are you sure of entering the top 10,000?”
Ruan Mingshu nodded, “I have entered the Ao Formation, so I am certain of entering the top 10,000.”
“Then how about this, you go in first, I’ll discuss it with a few friends.” Ning Cheng rejected Ruan Mingshu’s proposal.
Ruan Mingshu looked at Jing Wuming and Lan Ya and said with some disappointment, “Alright, then I will go in first, Senior Brother Ning, no matter what, you must pass this selection ……”
Even though there was nothing threatening in Ruan Mingshu’s words, Ning Cheng was still a little uncomfortable in his heart when he heard them. This was a disguised way of telling him that he and the Ruan family were in cooperation, and not to fail the selection himself because of someone else.
After Ruan Mingshu had left, Ning Cheng asked Lan Ya and the three of them, “Are you guys sure about this?”
Jing Wuming hesitated for a moment and said, “I’m not too sure, but I still have some.”
Lan Ya also nodded, “I’m also like Wuming, I’m not too sure, I won’t know until I go in and see it, but I believe there’s still a chance that I can pass.”
Shi Yulan fell silent until Ning Cheng looked at her, then she said, “I’m not sure.”
Ning Cheng pondered for a moment and said through voice transmission, “How about this, Shi Yulan and I will be in a group, while Wuming and Senior Sister Lan will be in a group. We will go in first, and Wu Ming you and Senior Sister Lan Ya will follow closely behind me. Whether it works or not, let’s give it a try first. Remember, don’t move once you’re inside. If you don’t receive my message, then it means that this formation cannot be cheated and you will have to break through by luck. If you can receive my transmission, then don’t rush.”
“Good.” Jing Wuming and the three of them answered at the same time, all agreeing with Ning Cheng’s statement, the four of them going in together would also have a caretaker.
……
This teleportation formation gate at Leland Square was so huge that even if several hundred people went in side by side, it was not crowded at all. More than a million participants quickly poured into the formation gate, and soon a small half of them had entered.
Ning Cheng and Shi Yulan were side by side in front of them, while Jing Wuming and Lan Ya followed behind Ning Cheng and Shi Yulan and entered the teleportation formation gate.
As soon as he stepped into the Teleportation Formation Gate, Ning Cheng felt a hollow feeling in his body, and a moment later, he landed on the ground.
Ning Cheng surveyed his surroundings, it was an empty hall, there was a wall more than ten metres in front of him, the wall and the underground of the hall were painted with some arcane patterns. He was the only person in the entire hall, and no one else could be seen.
Not to mention Jing Wuming and Lan Ya, even Shi Yulan, who came in with him, could not be seen.
Even though there was no exit or entrance to this great hall in front of him, Ning Cheng was not in a hurry, since it was an arcane formation, he must have to choose the exit himself. His divine sense carefully extended out, and when his divine sense touched the hall wall of the great hall, it was immediately blocked.
Ning Cheng did not withdraw it just because it was blocked, he had tried many times, his divine sense could penetrate some formations that shielded it, or even natural prohibitions that restricted it. It had been verified when he first obtained the Fire Origin Pearl.
Sure enough, when Ning Cheng’s divine sense forcibly penetrated, his divine sense slowly penetrated through the wall, and he then saw Shi Yulan, who was frowning and not moving, and Jing Wuming and Lan Ya on the other two sides. Apart from that, he also saw some other participating cultivators.
Ning Cheng panted, the Starry Sky Sea of Consciousness was indeed immensely powerful, he was sure that there was no second person who could be like him. This Ninth Order Arcane Formation should also be a huge spatial treasure, so much space had been cut open in this.
Shi Yulan stood in the middle of the great hall somewhat dazed, her divine sense could only wander around this great hall, how could she possibly receive Ning Cheng’s divine sense message? Moreover, this was still the first level, so she didn’t know how she should cope with it, what should she do later?
Just at this time, she sensed Ning Cheng’s divine sense message, “Don’t worry, the first level is something that you can pass through by calculating and star elements. You can go from here to the wall of the main hall, there is star yuan resistance in the middle, you must not retreat, once you do, you will be transported out.
There is also a pattern under your feet, and you need to calculate the exact landing direction yourself through the patterns in the Great Hall. If you miscalculate, you will also be transported out. This first level, you should be able to pass, once there are those who cannot pass later, don’t rush off yet, just stay where you are.”
Shi Yulan was pleasantly surprised, she could not have imagined that Ning Cheng’s divine sense could penetrate such a great hall and teleport to her, this was simply too powerful.
At the same time when Shi Yulan received Ning Cheng’s divine sense message, Jing Wuming and Lan Ya also received this divine sense signal, and both of them were equally shocked. Ning Cheng had the lowest cultivation level, how could he have such a strong divine sense. Or did he have a special gong method?
In any case Ning Cheng being strong was good for them, and several people immediately followed Ning Cheng’s words and went to break through the first level themselves.
What Ning Cheng did not expect was that while he was using his divine sense to transmit a message to the three Shi Yu Lan, Consort Xuan Yu, who was beside the Leland Star River King, suddenly frowned and her gaze landed on the teleportation formation gate in the middle of Leland Square.
