The magical instrument fell into Luo Mao’s hands, and after a moment of inspection, his eyes glowed brightly and his body trembled with excitement, which was enough to show how important this magical instrument was to him.
From the Great Sects seat, Han Yi’s line of sight fell on Luo Mao of Star Moon Sect and couldn’t help but nod.
Although the opponent was only at Foundation Building Middle Level, the compass was quite powerful, forming a unique field with starlight and launching attacks across space within the field.
However, such attacks were useful against cultivators of the same level but somewhat less effective against higher level cultivators.
Han Yi’s gaze moved to the Heavenly Mechanism Stone stele, and Luo Mao’s name wasn’t on the Qianlong List. Although his combat ability was not weak, his potential wasn’t ranked near the top, so it wasn’t included in the Heavenly Mechanism Stone records.
Han Yi’s line of sight moved to his own name.
Ranked ninth, Han Yi, Xuandan Sect, Foundation Building Middle Level.
The Qianlong List only records the sect and realm and does not record certain key events like the Master List, but Han Yi stared at his realm ‘Foundation Building Middle Level’ and fell into contemplation.
The Heavenly Mechanism Stone was not up to date, and it should have been the placings made by the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion based on the collected information on Daqian cultivators.
With a thought, Han Yi understood.
If the Heavenly Mechanism Stone could truly probe the heavenly secrets and rank all the potential of the cultivators of Daqian out of thin air, then it would not only be a spiritual treasure but a truly immortal artifact that could only be controlled by a genuine Immortal with infinite mysteries.
Han Yi withdrew his gaze and looked back at the Star River Square.
After the first round of just now, other cultivators began to go on stage one after another, unable to resist.
Some people went up for the treasures in the Heavenly Mechanism stone stele, some for fame, and some because they were unwilling to not be ranked, wanting to prove their strength. After going on stage, they directly called out someone in the audience for a challenge.
There was no fixed event for the Heavenly Mechanism Displays, so it more resembled a stage for showcasing oneself.
As the contest became increasingly intense, the enthusiasm of the cultivators surrounding the Star River Square was aroused.
Cultivators from immortal clans, loose cultivators, small Foundation Building sects, Golden Core Sects, and Nascent Soul Great Sects all took the stage one after another, and even the cultivators on the Qianlong List gradually began to participate.
Han Yi originally didn’t want to go on stage, but someone challenged him. Remembering Liu Ruyan’s words, he also stood up.
Before him, one of the cultivators ranked in the top ten of the Qianlong List had already taken the stage, and everyone was clearly more curious about the cultivators ranked higher on the list.
Among the loose cultivators around Star River Square, Dou Yu looked at Han Yi walking forward, a strange glint in his eyes, and suddenly laughed and said to the cultivators surrounding him:
“Everyone, the one now on stage is Han Yi from Xuandan Sect, ranked ninth on the Qianlong List.”
“Although my strength is not strong, I have friends all over the world, and I am quite familiar with Daoist Han. However, Daoist Han doesn’t like male cultivators but prefers female cultivators. If any female cultivator wants to follow him, you only need one hundred middle-grade spirit stones, and I will help you make the connection, how about that?”
At Dou Yu’s side, male cultivators shook their heads in disappointment, while female cultivators’ eyes brightened and they asked for details.
Dou Yu was secretly delighted, and with a serious expression, said: “However, Daoist Han has high requirements, and I can only recommend one person to be his follower.”
“Following a future Master Golden Core or even Nascent Soul Master is a status that ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators can’t compare to. If you’re lucky and reveal some Immortal Affinity, his follower may even break through the Golden Core stage. It would be a great honor.”
“This opportunity is rare, so sign up quickly! Don’t push or shove, I’m only taking ten people. If you’re not chosen, I’ll return ninety spirit stones. My integrity can be vouched for by the loose cultivators on Luoxia Mountain. You won’t have any trouble finding someone.”
On the other side.
Han Yi didn’t know that Dou Yu, whom he had met only once, was actually using him for his business.
At this moment, his focus was on the cultivator standing in the middle of the stage.
The one who challenged him was not Fu You from Southern Dipper Divine Palace.
The one who challenged him was Ding Jiansheng from Chi Xiao Sword Sect.
Qianlong List, ranked fifty-sixth, Chi Xiao Sword Sect, Ding Jiansheng.
During the Treasured Jade Heaven in the past, Han Yi had seen him but had never fought him.
This was a proud young man with a proud face and demeanor. This pride wasn’t an act but a Sword Intention innate to his Sword Way.
This was a true Sword Cultivator.
As one of the Three Great Sects of Daqian, the Chi Xiao Sword Sect’s strength was undisputed, and as a Sword Sect, its combat ability was even more prominent. If ranking were necessary, the Three Great Sects of Daqian would rank Chi Xiao Sword Sect first.
Tai Xu Sect was originally the undisputed number one, but twenty-nine years ago, the demon lair descended, and its location was close to Tai Xu Sect. During the battle between immortals and demons, two Nascent Soul masters from Tai Xu Sect died. Since then, the Chi Xiao Sword Sect has been the strongest among the Three Great Sects of Daqian, albeit not by much.
Of course, the relationship between the Three Great Sects of Daqian wasn’t harmonious. There were constant disputes, with Southern Dipper Divine Palace always on the move, Chi Xiao Sword Sect standing still, and Tai Xu Sect keeping a low profile. The undercurrents between them were unknown to most people, and Han Yi only knew the most superficial aspects.
“Chi Xiao Sword Sect, Ding Jiansheng, please.”
Ding Jiansheng’s face remained proud, but amidst the pride, there was a hint of solemn formality. Behind him, three sword tools – bronze, ice blue and red – exuded sharp Sword Qi that was ready to be released.
“Xuandan Sect, Han Yi, please.”
Seeing as it was a competition and the opponent had announced his name, Han Yi naturally wouldn’t fail to observe the courtesies.
As soon as the word ‘please’ fell, Ding Jiansheng launched an attack.
Because in his eyes, Han Yi’s presence had grown much stronger than it had been two years ago to an exaggerated extent, causing him to become extremely cautious.
Two years ago, during Emperor’s birthday celebration, the slightly stronger cultivators who entered the Treasured Jade Heaven all obtained a Spiritual Jade and, with the help of it, entered into the Foundation Building Middle Level.
However, within two years, they could barely stabilize their realm, merely at the beginning stage of the Foundation Building Middle Level.
But in Ding Jiansheng’s eyes, Han Yi’s presence was much stronger than his own, obviously already at the Foundation Building late stage, and even within that stage, he had progressed a considerable distance.
This gap shocked him and naturally made him even more cautious.
Clank!!
The bronze ancient sword in the middle broke through space in an instant, reaching Han Yi in the blink of an eye without any hesitation or unnecessary movements.
The other two sword tools, ice blue and fire red, followed closely behind, one to the left and one to the right.
