Chapter 6029: Tiers of Empty Tokens
Not only was there already no light on Zhao Zhuyin’s body when she walked over, but she even murmured, “They should have said it earlier. I wouldn’t have wasted so much time if I knew that I could freely join a team.”
Her action frustrated the gleeful Redsoul Sect’s young master.
Zhao Zhuyin was a True God level cultivator too, so her joining Chu Feng’s side put him in a tough spot. He was planning to suppress Chu Feng and the others with his martial power after all the wavering present-era juniors joined his side.
He had heard about Chu Feng obtaining the Genesis Bloodline, and he didn’t want to give up on such a tasty piece of meat. It would be a huge merit if he could capture Chu Feng.
But Zhao Zhuyin defecting to the other side messed things up for him, making it far harder for him to pull off his plan.
Annoyed, the Redsoul Sect’s young master asked, “Miss, why are you joining them when you are from the Ancient Era too?”
There was no anger in his words; instead, he sounded confused and indignant.
Zhao Zhuyin halted her footsteps and turned around to say, “Chu Feng is my friend.”
“They are acquainted?”
Zhao Zhuyin’s words startled everyone. This was a huge shock, but it made sense in a way. While it was hard to believe, it explained why she had stopped the Redsoul Sect’s young master when he made a move on Chu Feng and the others earlier.
The Redsoul Sect’s young master was at a loss for words. Her choice had made it much harder for him to deal with Chu Feng.
Zhao Zhuyin headed over to Chu Feng’s side, but instead of fusing her aura into his formation right away, she raised her head and asked, “Chu Feng, may I join your team?”
“Of course, I warmly welcome friends,” Chu Feng replied with a smile.
Weng!
A light shrouded Zhao Zhuyin. She had successfully joined Chu Feng’s team.
Her defection was a surprise, but it didn’t stop the present-era juniors from defecting to the Ancient Era’s team. The present-era juniors had an idea of what the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion was capable of, and they dared not to offend them.
In the blink of an eye, the tables were turned.
The Ancient Era’s team previously only had a thousand members, but they now had over ten thousand people.
In contrast, Chu Feng’s team only had three hundred people left. Most of those who stayed were the cultivators whom Chu Feng had helped exact vengeance against the Redsoul Sect. They chose to stay behind because they felt indebted to Chu Feng, and they harbored a grudge against the Redsoul Sect too.
Not everyone whom Chu Feng had helped chose to stay on his team. A portion of them gave up. They retreated from Chu Feng’s team out of fear of the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, but they refused to side with the Redsoul Sect too.
“Chu Feng, you might be a present-era cultivator, but it looks like you’re unpopular,” the Redsoul Sect’s young master sneered in arrogance.
“Why would this young miss join me if I’m that unpopular? Those who joined you are merely a bunch of fence-sitters. Your team can be a hundred thousand people strong, but it still won’t rival this one miss,” Chu Feng replied.
However, the Redsoul Sect’s young master only smiled even more gleefully. “Don’t you know that numbers are important here?”
“Of course I do. I received the same piece of information as you, and I know you changed your mind because you want more people to join your team so that you can maximize your benefits.”
Those words left those who joined the Ancient Era’s team feeling conflicted. They didn’t doubt Chu Feng’s words here. While it was a win-win situation for them, being exploited by the Ancient Era’s juniors still left them with a bitter aftertaste.
“Yes, I want to maximize my benefits, but that can only be done if I can help them in the first place. I am confident of pulling that off, but what about you? Can you decipher the formation in the sky?”
After saying his piece, the Redsoul Sect’s young master started forming hand seals. His body glowed, and the formation in the sky cast a beam of light down on him. The light shrouding him began to morph as spirit power gathered around him.
He changed his hand seal, and the spirit power gathered around him swiftly manifested as empty tokens. He had forged enough empty tokens for each of his followers to have one, and he distributed it equally among them.
Those who obtained the empty tokens were overjoyed, especially those who didn’t have one. They thought that they had chosen the right person to follow.
“Chu Feng, I heard that you are the most talented world spiritist, possessing the legendary Ruler’s Bloodline. I trust your formation deciphering means are far above mine. It shouldn’t be tough for you to forge empty tokens for your followers then. Stop beating around the bush and make your move. Let me see what the most talented present-era world spiritist is capable of.”
The Redsoul Sect’s young master looked at Chu Feng provocatively.
“You don’t need to worry. My Brother Chu Feng will fare better than you,” Qin Xuan sneered.
“Why do you keep interjecting in my conversation with Chu Feng? Are you his dog?” the Redsoul Sect’s young master asked in displeasure.
Weng!
The earth suddenly shook. Pillars of light descended to the ground, making the world exceptionally bright.
“Those are formations harnessing energy. Follow me with your empty tokens to breach those formations and collect energy.”
The Redsoul Sect’s young master quickly led the crowd away. This showed that even though he had a foul mouth, he was not one to let squabbling get in the way of what was more important.
“Chu Feng,” Qin Xuan called out to Chu Feng.
He was starting to get nervous. The map Chu Feng gave him had failed to indicate the locations of any of the light pillars. This made him doubt the map's reliability.
If the locations Chu Feng had marked on the map were not related to this trial, they should have made a move right away to compete with the Ancient Era’s juniors over the energy in the light pillars. Otherwise, they would be disadvantaged.
A few others shared the same thought as Qin Xuan too.
Other than Yuwen Yanri and Zhao Zhuyin, who retained their composure, the three hundred people on Chu Feng’s side looked flustered.
“It’s fine, Brother Qin. The light pillars you see right now are the weaker formations. They revealed themselves because of the Redsoul Sect’s young master forging the empty tokens via the formation in the sky. I’m guessing that the revealed formations correspond to the quality of the empty tokens he forged,” Chu Feng replied.
“I understand. Even the forged empty tokens can be of different qualities,” Qin Xuan replied.
