Chapter 154: News

"... According to the news received by our Li family, the venue for the Four Sects Dharma Assembly is the Qilian Mountain Range at the border of Jingzhou and Taizhou.

This mountain range is rich in resources, but its location is special, and its ownership is not very clear. Due to the mutual bickering between the Qianzhu Sect and the Luori Sect, it has never been developed on a large scale. It is said that there are still many entry-rank spirit beasts inside that are rare in the outside world.

This time, after discussion among the four sects, they are prepared to designate an area on the outskirts of the Qilian Mountain Range, let the disciples of each sect participating in the Dharma Assembly enter, and compete for a certain designated rare resource. Finally, the ranking will be determined by how much of this resource is obtained." Li Tianqi spoke eloquently, seemingly already having a thorough grasp of the rules for this Four Sects Dharma Assembly.

"Does this rare resource refer to spirit herbs and ores, or spirit beast cores or spirit fruits? Does Lin Lin Shijie Li know the accurate news?" A man in his forties, looking like a scholarly Confucian with a refined appearance, couldn't help but ask upon hearing this.

"Huang Li Shixiong, no need to be anxious. The specific resource to be competed for needs to be decided jointly by the ancestors of each sect at that time. This is also to prevent anyone from preparing in advance, to prevent cheating." Li Tianqi explained with a light laugh.

"Doing it this way can be considered fair, but is the team size this time really as Lin Lin Shijie Li received information, only five people per team? Will there be any changes by then?" Another sweet-looking woman, seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing a purple dress with two long braids tied on her head, also asked softly, her voice as soft and pleasant as she was.

"Regarding this matter, Liu Shimei Liu, rest assured.

In previous Four Sects Dharma Assemblies, as long as it was a team mode, the number of people was generally around five.

Because this number can test the cooperation of each sect's disciples and also allow each disciple's strength to be fully exerted, it will not be easily changed." Li Tianqi turned her head and smiled at the woman in the purple dress.

"So that's how it is. I've only been in the sect for a few years, so I'm not very clear about this. Thank you, Lin Lin Shijie, for clearing up my confusion." Liu Shimei Liu replied with a sweet smile upon hearing this.

"It's normal for Liu Shimei Liu and Wang Wang Shidi to be unclear about the customs of previous Dharma Assemblies, as you both only entered the inner sect in recent years.

However, I heard that this Dharma Assembly is different from previous ones. In order to cope with the invasion of the demonic path of Yu Nation such as the Black Soul Sect and to stimulate the morale within the sect, the four sects have specially brought out quite a bit of the sect's foundation to heavily reward the disciples who rank high in this Dharma Assembly. I heard that the rewards are so generous that they far exceed those of the previous few Dharma Assemblies." The last white-robed youth with a delicate appearance also suddenly smiled and interjected, his burning gaze intentionally or unintentionally lingering mostly on the sweet face of the woman in the purple dress.

"The Sun family is the second largest clan in the sect after the Li and Yun families. If Sun Li Shixiong says so, then it must be correct. I was wondering why there are so many disciples from our sect participating in the Four Sects Dharma Assembly this time." Liu Shimei Liu responded with a sweet smile to the hot gaze of the white-robed youth.

The smile of this Liu Shimei Liu made this Sun Li Shixiong feel ecstatic, and he hurriedly said as if offering a treasure:

"My ancestor also said that among the rewards brought out this time, I'm not clear about the other sects, but our Sixiang Sect ancestor seems to have brought out a set of 'Small Spirit Gathering Array' array disks."

As soon as these words were spoken, except for Li Tianqi, Wang Yu and the others all had their expressions change slightly.

"Small Spirit Gathering Array! That's the auxiliary array that can gather nearby spirit Qi and significantly increase the purity of spirit Qi in the place of cultivation." Liu Shimei Liu widened her beautiful eyes and asked in surprise.

"That's right, it's this array. In the Sixiang Sect, this Small Spirit Gathering Array is only available in the cultivation places of true disciples and Golden Core ancestors. Others, even Foundation Establishment elders, don't have arrays to assist in cultivation." Huang Li Shixiong muttered, unable to hide the look of surprise on his face.

"Lin Lin Shijie Li, you are a disciple of the Li family; do you also know about this news?" Wang Yu finally asked Li Tianqi a question.

"That's right, my ancestor did indeed hint at this matter.

As for this Small Spirit Gathering Array, everyone shouldn't get their hopes up. It looks like it's prepared for those true disciples participating in the competition. If we can strive for the second-tier rewards, such as Foundation Establishment Pills and the like, that would be considered not bad." Li Tianqi first nodded, but then shook her head to wake everyone up.

These words were like a basin of cold water, immediately waking Huang Li Shixiong and the others up, and the look of surprise on their faces couldn't help but diminish a little.

Wang Yu's gaze flickered slightly when he heard this.

"Lin Lin Shijie Li is absolutely right. However, for this Dharma Assembly, if it really is based on how many of a certain rare resource are found to determine the final ranking, sometimes luck is also very important. I am not talented, but I still have quite a few means in finding people and objects." The white-robed youth chuckled and said, his gaze sweeping over Liu Shimei Liu beside him again.

"Sun Li Shixiong, is what you said true? If we are lucky, is it really possible to get this Small Spirit Gathering Array?" The woman in the purple dress showed a look of surprise on her face again, staring at Sun Li Shixiong and asking.

"Liu Shimei Liu, Junior Sun Li Shixiong, don't forget, the Four Sects Dharma Assembly examines the strength of the disciples of the four sects. Even if you can find enough designated resources first, you will definitely have to fight a few battles with other teams before you can bring the resources out." Huang Li Shixiong had clearly sobered up and said to the two with a bitter smile.

"That's right, what kind of results we can achieve in this Four Sects Dharma Assembly naturally still depends on the strength of our own abilities.

Among the five of us, Huang Li Shixiong has the highest cultivation, already at the perfection of Qi Refinement.

I am at the ninth level of Qi Refinement, and Junior Sun Li Shixiong and Liu Shimei Liu are both at the eighth level of Qi Refinement.

Although Wang Wang Shidi is only at the seventh level of Qi Refinement, his strength is very astonishing, even I am not his match." Li Tianqi simply stated the cultivation of the five people and specifically pointed out Wang Yu's true strength.

Hearing Li Tianqi say this, the other three had somewhat strange expressions.

Wang Yu's cultivation was so low, yet Li Tianqi claimed his strength was even above that of Li Tianqi, who was at the ninth level of Qi Refinement. Although they had also heard about the small clan fighting for spirit vein quotas some time ago, they were still somewhat skeptical about the gold content of Wang Yu becoming the final winner.

After all, they had never been to the scene to watch the entire competition process in person, and the news they received was also a mix of truth and falsehood, so they felt that Wang Yu's achievement of snatching the spirit vein quota might have a lot of exaggeration.

The reason they agreed to Li Tianqi pulling Wang Yu into this team was mainly because they valued Wang Yu's status as an official artifact refiner and hoped to use this to befriend Wang Yu.

"Lin Lin Shijie Li is too complimentary. If Lin Lin Shijie really let go and fought me, how could I possibly be her match? This time, I still have to rely on Lin Lin Shijie and several senior brothers." Wang Yu said very modestly when he heard this.

Hearing Wang Yu say this, Huang Li Shixiong and the others naturally exchanged a few polite words.

"This time, the number of disciples from our Sixiang Sect participating in the competition, including both inner and outer sects, is about seven or eight hundred. Among them, the inner sect accounts for one-third, and the outer sect accounts for two-thirds, most of whom are at the late stage of Qi Refinement. In addition, there are two great Qi Refinement true disciples participating." Seeing this, Li Tianqi laughed twice and continued to recount the news she knew.

Qi Refinement true disciples!

Wang Yu's expression tightened when he heard this.

Huang Li Shixiong and the others couldn't help but look solemn when they heard this. ===== CHAPTER 155 =====
