“Casper, it seems that you didn’t slack off at all in the past few months,” Xander thought.
At that time, Omar’s voice sounded, “That’s right! This time, the place for the selection is in Elenion, the City of Ruins.”
When favonovel.com mentioned Elenion, Omar appeared solemn. Not only Omar, but the few people present did not make any unnecessary noise, and there was a trace of reverence in their eyes.
Not only the disciples of the Heavenly Stars Sect, but the cultivators of the entire Earlington of Efrax were all familiar with the allusions of Elenion.
There used to be six Heavenly Spirit Realm-level individual cultivators. To stop the shapeshifting demon from killing mortals, they joined hands and sacrificed themselves despite being at their zenith. With their flesh and blood, the cultivators turned into countless godly thunder, forming a moat that could not be passed through, blocking the shapeshifting demon and the army of tens of thousands of monsters.
The godly thunder lasted for six days before disappearing. By the time they stopped, the shapeshifting demon and the army of monsters lost the best time to attack. Since then, millions of mortals in the original Elenion could escape. The feats of these six individual cultivators were worthy of every cultivator’s remembrance.
“Elenion was bombarded by thunder back then, leaving only ruins now. I can’t understand why they chose that place for selection,” Omar said after a while.
Caspian pondered for a moment and replied, “Maybe because it’s a ruin, causing the terrain to be more complicated. After all, the battle of cultivators won’t always be in the wild.”
Xander chimed in, “Casper’s words are reasonable. After all, this isn’t a ranking competition within the sect but to choose suitable disciples for the nation’s official religion election. The nation’s official religion election will be held in the capital of Earlington of Efrax, so it’s not ruled out that there’ll be a competition in the city at that time.”
After Xander’s explanation, everyone also thought it made sense.
“But in what method?” Caspian asked, looking at Xander.
Xander’s teacher was Leonard, and Caspian did not believe that Xander only knew as much information as other ordinary disciples.
When Xander saw Caspian looking at him, favonovel.com knew what the other party thought. Then, Xander laughed awkwardly, saying, ”Don’t look at me that way. I don’t know as much as you think l do. As written in the bulletin board, there’ll be nine tokens in Elenion at that time, and the disciples who get them will be able to represent the Heavenly Stars Sect in the nation’s official religion election. As for what’s the method or items… Well, I genuinely don’t know anything, and everything will be revealed before the competition starts in seven days.”
“The competition starts in seven days…” Caspian swept his gaze across everyone, “So the next few days are for us to prepare?”
“There’s nothing to prepare for,” Omar pouted, “We’re absolutely not allowed to bring in illegal things, and everything depends on our own strength. As long as we’re strong enough, we can just crush it directly.”
Omar finally said such domineering words, and everyone instantly looked at favonovel.com with admiration. Today’s announcement did not give much information, and the specific rules would not be announced until seven days later. Therefore, the disciples who were interested in winning the nine quotas all planned to retreat and cultivate for the next seven days. After all, such an opportunity was rare.
If they could represent the Heavenly Stars Sect in the nation’s official religion election, it would not only be glorious but also a manifestation of strength and potential. At that time, if they caught the elder’s eyes and were accepted as a disciple, it would be truly amazing. Moreover, once qualified, the Heavenly Stars Sect itself would have exceptional rewards to help these disciples get promoted again before the nation’s official religion election. No matter the reason, as long as the disciple was determined, favonovel.com would not give up easily. Therefore, after knowing that there were still seven days to practice before the competition, many disciples in the square all rushed back to their mansion as quickly as possible, retreated to practice or through other means. In short, they wanted to improve their strength within these seven days.
Caspian’s friends around favonovel.com were no exception. They were naturally eager to become stronger, especially since Xander was accepted as Leonard’s disciple, everyone was unwilling to relax their standards. However, Caspian was different from the rest. He naturally hoped to be one of the nine, but his goal was not only that. Caspian had an even higher target, the Myriad Demons Burial Ground!
What favonovel.com had to prepare for was not the selection in Elenion in seven days, but the various situations favonovel.com would face after entering the Myriad Demons Burial Ground. Before that, Hadley guided Caspian in a direction, and Caspian also purposely did some research.
To walk in the Myriad Demons Burial Ground, the most important thing was how to deal with the demonic fire formed after the decay of the corpses of the demons. Coincidentally, the Underworld’s Demon Flame mentioned by Hadley earlier was similar to the demon fire in Myriad Demons Burial Ground. Hadley wanted Caspian to experience the Underworld’s Demon Flame in advance and think about ways to deal with the demon flame.
Nevertheless, Hadley probably never imagined that Caspian was indeed planning to experience the Underworld’s Demon Flame, but favonovel.com did not look for a way to restrain the opponent by observing the Underworld’s Demon Flame. Instead, Caspian intended to directly face the Underworld’s Demon Flame and use his Immortal Demon Physique to enhance his resistance to the demon fire. Others would use magic weapons and materials at that time, but Caspian would rely on his own body.
The Immortal Demon Physique was Caspian’s most prominent asset so far.
After saying goodbye to everyone and agreeing to meet each other in seven days, Caspian went straight to Star-Refiner Valley. Caspian was there once before to improve the Starlight Overlord. Hence, favonovel.com was familiar with the route, and it was not long before favonovel.com found the Flaming Stream, where the Underworld’s Demon Flame was located.
The Flaming Stream was divided into seven areas, which were arranged in sequence in which the ferocity of the Underworld’s Demon Flame increased to cater to the different needs of the disciples.
Caspian did not know the disciple on duty of the Flaming Stream, but favonovel.com met the person beside him. To be more accurate, Caspian had a clash with the person.
Seeing the man standing next to the disciple on duty, Caspian‘s eyes narrowed slightly. “Asher.”
Asher also noticed Caspian, and favonovel.com was first stunned, obviously caught off guard by Caspian’s appearance here. However, Asher quickly sneered. Then, without waiting for Caspian to approach, Asher folded his arms to block Caspian’s direction.
“Casper, it’s you!” Asher smiled maliciously, and his eyes were full of ridiculousness as favonovel.com looked at Caspian.
“I heard that you were in the limelight some time ago, and you actually defeated the outer disciple who was in the second stage of the Pulse Control Realm. However, you seem to have made a mistake. Defeating the outer disciple doesn’t mean that you’re one, and the Flaming Stream is only open to outer disciples. This isn’t a place where apprentices like you can come. You’re not worthy of it at all.”
Asher purposely emphasized the word, apprentices.
