Chapter 267: The Bloodline of the System Master
"What an exaggerated little girl. Not even the Dao Sisters or the Dao Sons say they want to sweep everything aside. She has no luck to support her and no battle honing; is she just dreaming?"
"The Qushuang Dao System has indeed become increasingly arrogant lately. They think any random person can be invincible and crush everyone? Do they really think there are no strong opponents in the Spirit Sect?"
At the Emerald Spirit Lake, a flurry of discussions erupted.
Cultivators who stayed in their caves, using tokens to watch, were also frequently communicating through their tokens.
The name Su Xinsan echoed again in the ears of all the disciples of the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect.
The vast majority did not believe Su Xinsan had the strength to sweep all foes aside.
But there were also some disciples who supported Su Xinsan for a simple reason.
Su Xinsan was beautiful and had an impressive demeanor. Even when she spoke arrogantly, she radiated incredible charm.
This was worth their attention—after all, she was destined to be a significant figure, so why should they care about her ultimate height?
Moreover, those with such confidence, even if they were not the strongest, could never be weak.
Defeating a genius on the Qilin Rankings and being recognized as the thirty-second rank showed that Su Xinsan was at least in the top ten of her generation, indeed possessing the potential to surpass common assumptions.
"Let’s wait and see. This trial features a Dao Sister; we can observe how the competition turns out."
"Hehe, it’s okay if it ends in a tie; but if she faces a crushing defeat…"
Someone couldn’t help but laugh with amusement.
This spectacle was bound to be interesting.
It’s important to note that Dao Sisters and Dao Sons possess the bloodline of the System Master.
Whether in the direct lineage or the next generation, those who completely inherit, or even exceed, the bloodline of the System Master can be called Dao Sons and Dao Sisters. In bloodline status, they surpass everyone else.
Each generation’s Dao Sons and Dao Sisters would at least become very powerful figures in the law realms.
Some might even reach the Mystic Realm; these are the most valued individuals in the Dao System.
Although the Qushuang Dao System boasts seven peerless figures, each comparable to those in the Mystic Realm, they are not invincible.
In terms of true Mystic Realm practitioners, the Qushuang Dao System is at an absolute disadvantage.
The top three Dao Systems all have more than three Mystic Realm practitioners, while the head of the sect alone has six Mystic Realm practitioners, reaching the pinnacle of power.
In the Cloud Heavenly Spirit Sect, where strong opponents constantly emerge, aspiring to become a contemporary genius is nearly impossible; let alone competing against Su Xinsan, who stands on a stage with not just the current generation!
The possibility that she might achieve her own boasts is minuscule.
As Su Xinsan sailed away, everyone shifted their attention to other projections.
For example, Yun Ye.
Many noticed that the flying artifact used by Yun Ye was incredibly fast; he would likely be the first to reach the core area.
Unlike the random transport of the Crescent Moon Secret Realm, the Rain World Secret Realm methodically deposited everyone at its boundary in a circular fashion.
Entering from different directions of the light columns would result in appearing at various points along the edge of the Rain World Secret Realm—this was predictable.
In other words, no one would start very close to the core area; at least at this starting point, everyone had an equal chance to compete.
In this situation, the red dot representing Yun Ye on the large map projection moved toward the core area at an astonishing speed, creating a stark contrast with all the others.
"Only one person can barely keep up?"
"That’s the True Disciple of the Kongmen Dao System. He masters the formations and Spirit Laws of spatial teleportation, and he can only manage to stay close. This Xiang Ying is just too fast…"
The Kongmen Dao System ranks low and doesn’t have much distinction between its main vein and branch veins; everyone practices spatial Spirit Laws, but those who can master them are exceptionally rare.
In Huangzhou, even in the law realms, only a few grasp spatial power, which shows the significant gap between the top Spirit Sects in Huangzhou and the royal family of the Luo Dynasty.
…
Yun Ye and his three companions moved at ten times the speed of sound; their pace was indeed rapid, thanks in part to Xiang Qingrou’s Spirit Law support.
In this Rain World Secret Realm, the border area remained calm and clear, free of storms.
However, as they advanced toward the core area, natural disasters became more frequent.
What began as light rain escalated into heavy downpours, thunderstorms, and even tornadoes.
Deeper into the realm, the rainwater became infused with spirit energy, making ordinary Spirit Laws difficult to resist.
Continuing their high-speed flight consumed significant spirit energy, with the consumption rate surging from several times to dozens of times.
This is why many areas of the Rain World Secret Realm remain unexplored; in such an environment, even in the law realms, movement is extremely challenging. If one charges recklessly, they might encounter thunderbolts capable of striking down law realm practitioners or divine rains that can dissolve their power.
Xiang Qingrou’s Spirit Law detection became less effective the deeper they traveled, but it still helped maintain their flight speed to some extent.
Unfortunately, after crossing about a quarter of the map and still having a quarter to go to reach the core area, Yun Ye noticed that the spirit energy in the air began to spiral out of control, transforming into inert spirit energy or violent spirit energy that was difficult to manipulate.
This weakened the cultivators’ recovery abilities. To continue, they would need to either slow down or rely on pills and treasures.
"Heir, the spirit energy is becoming difficult to manipulate. This place not only has natural disaster threats, but we should also slow down to conserve our strength," Xiang Qingrou immediately alerted.
"It’s a small problem," Yun Ye said, shaking his head. He produced a transparent ring and tossed it above his head, causing it to quickly turn white.
The three of them were taken aback because the ring was absorbing spirit energy!
Such a terrifying ability to extract spirit energy—was it a magical treasure?
But that didn’t seem right; magical treasures and spiritual tools are different. Treasures need refinement to be effective, and with their spiritual realm strength, one would not be able to refine a magical treasure, which is precisely why forbidden devices exist.
If a magical treasure were the same as a spiritual tool, activated simply by uttering an incantation, then why bother with sealing devices?
To put it plainly, magical treasures are powered by magical energy, and magical energy cannot simply be extracted from spirit energy. If that were the case, law realm practitioners wouldn’t need to fear depleting their magical energy.
"This is a formation disc that can deploy a formation to extract spirit energy; with this power, we should be able to reach our destination," Yun Ye mentioned casually, sparking further questions.
How could a single formation disc possess such power?
It wasn’t only Xiang Qingrou and her companions who questioned this.
Various big shots outside were equally curious.
Each type of tool represents a qualitative breakthrough made by predecessors at the heights of their fields, which is why they are categorized separately.
Spiritual tools merely conduct spirit energy, amplifying the power of Spirit Laws.
Spiritual artifacts possess activated spirituality, allowing them to store a certain amount of spirit energy and assist their owner in automatically converting some spirit energy.
Magical treasures, on the other hand, extend from activated spirituality, giving rise to spirit entities that enable inanimate objects to match the ever-changing magical energy of their practitioners, thus enhancing their combat power.
Each step represents a qualitative change, from being unable to extract spirit energy to being able to do so, and leveraging magical energy to extract spirit energy is an evolutionary process; formations essentially follow the same principle.
Theoretically, if the formation disc and flags were crafted based on spiritual tools, no matter how exquisite, they would still have limits.
They wouldn’t be able to collect such a vast amount of spirit energy with just a single ring.
Unfortunately, separated by projections, they couldn’t perceive the intricacies within; otherwise, they might gain some insights.
