Chapter 969: Yuan Wu Tian Jun
Staring at the crazy cultivators who were going for the treasures, Ling Xian softly smiled and didn't attack.
First of all, attacking now would make it seem like he was hurting the public and news would spread. Second of all, he had won two treasures and there was no need to continue this.
Therefore, he chose to give up and decided to watch from afar. His at ease and collected ways truly looked pleasant.
The others were now fighting and clawing at each other.
HOMMM!
The Goddess of Battles used her long spear to knock out several Heaven's Favorites and gained a treasure.
Ye Xiao Yao formed a hand seal and took another treasure into his pouch.
The Demonic Fairy's Disorder of Yin and Yang was basically unstoppable. She too, gained a treasure.
The last one landed in Huang Jiu Ge's hands.
She was now a pure-blooded phoenix. She was not any weaker than even Ling Xian. Therefore, she finally displayed her attacking abilities and got her hands on the last treasure.
Just like that, the battle ended.
Those who had lost all left crestfallen and went to search elsewhere.
Ye Xiao Yao left as well. But as he was leaving, he gave Ling Xian a complex look.
The Demonic Fairy did the same.
At once, there was now only a man and woman remaining behind.
"The last time I saw you, your Qi was dormant. I cannot believe that you successfully transformed after only a few months."
The Goddess of Battles gave Ling Xian a look. She too, appeared complexed.
"I remember you vowed to battle against him. It's sometimes better to just do things rather than planning them. Let's fight now." Ling Xian smiled, a desire to battle appeared in his eyes.
Last time, though he defeated the Goddess of Battles, he fought with his physique only. Plus, he knew that this woman was unpredictable. So he wanted to battle again today.
"You want to, but I don't."
The Goddess of Battles spoke. "My spiritual energy is now also going through transformation. Are you trying to take advantage?"
"Transformation?"
Ling Xian was a little startled and frowned, "But I clearly sense Qi from your body. Shouldn't it be dormant?"
"Who told you when Qi transforms, it has to be in deep sleep?"
The Goddess of Battles' lips curled up, "There are many circumstances that can occur. Some Qi need to be dormant and need some kind of heavenly treasure to awaken it. You belonged to that category."
Pausing, she continued, "Some doesn't become dormant and can instantaneously occur. Some merely need time to pass to transform and isn't affected by much and can still be used. That is where I am."
Hearing this, Ling Xian's frown relaxed and he shook his head with a smile.
That was true. When the Immortals were explaining the transformation of Qi to him, they never said Qi has to be dormant when transforming. He was the one who made that mistake.
After listening to this explanation, he had a realization.
"So I encountered the worst case scenario."
Ling Xian bitterly laughed. It was so fortunate he found the Nirvana Fountain. Or else his Qi never would've successfully transformed.
"You could say that."
The Goddess of Battles nodded. "Luckily your physique was powerful enough. Or else god knows how many times you would've died."
"That is true. I would have to thank my dormant Qi for that. I never would've trained my physique so hard otherwise."
Ling Xian smiled, feeling fortunate.
If he was lucky and instantaneously transformed his Qi, then his physique never would've achieved what it is today. His Qi and soul never would've reached the peak of the original level.
This is also all thanks to the Nirvana Fountain. If he instantaneously transformed, he never would've searched for the Nirvana Fountain and again, wouldn't have today's accomplishments.
Basically, he had to thank his Qi for being dormant.
"Alright, let's not waste any more time. I want to make a deal with you. I wonder if you would accept?" The Goddess of Battles wiped off her smile and turned serious.
Ling Xian became interested, "Speak of it."
"As you know, the Sea of Death was once a battlefield. Reality is that the entire Palace of Heaven's Favorites is."
The Goddess of Battles' lips curled up, "As you know, it is easy for news to circulate. Therefore, all the greatest battles that happen amongst the most powerful happen in little universes. Such as the one we are in now."
"However, this place isn't the core of the battleground. The true top Heaven's Favorites battles occur inside the First Prohibited Area."
"In other words, the best treasures can be found there."
Ling Xian raised an eyebrow, "So you want to form an alliance with me and go into the First Prohibited Area?"
"Smart. But to put it more accurately, you and I need to work together to defend against others in order to win the number one treasure."
The Goddess of Battles smiled. "While the Number One Prohibited Area is dangerous, to the real deal, it is nothing. Therefore, it's not exactly a secret that the best treasure is there. Many people go and fight for the treasures."
"I see."
Ling Xian softly nodded and asked the critical question right away, "First of all, what is the benefit of me doing this. Second of all, what is the treasure? Third of all, why should I help you?"
"I can answer all your questions using one answer."
The Goddess of Battles softly smiled, "That treasure is the inheritance of Yuan Wu Tian Jun. Legend has it that the treasure is the reason why that omnipotent is able to get where he got. If acquired, you and I can also be enlightened."
"Yuan Wu Tian Jun?" Ling Xian frowned slightly, understanding what the Goddess of Battles said.
Since it is an inheritance, then naturally many people would go after it. That is the benefit of it and also the goal of the alliance.
"That person is an omnipotent. Even in the history of Tianzhou, he is a famous one."
The Goddess of Battles explained simply, "His inheritance is no joke. Someone claim it is a cosmic technique."
Hearing this, Ling Xian's eyes exploded with light and heat.
What is a cosmic technique?
It is the highest level of techniques!
When any cosmic technique becomes powerful enough, it can be known as the strongest in the world and surpass all other techniques.
Legend has it that even the most capable immortals practice cosmic techniques!
However, the number of cosmic technique is extremely rare. Out of the entire world, there aren't many. The value of each and every one of them is immeasurable and is a true treasure!
Using the Shang Qing Sect Technique as an example - it is the highest level of inheritance in Shang Qing Sect and is extremely extraordinary. Even the completed Shang Qing Technique cannot compare to one tenth of the cosmic technique!
Therefore, when the words cosmic technique was heard. Ling Xian's eyes turned heated. He asked impatiently, "Which one?"
"Nobody knows. It's not even known whether or not if it's real."
The Goddess of Battles glared at Ling Xian, "It's just that there are records that Yuan Wu Tian Jun's cultivation is likely a cosmic technique. The last place he appeared was inside the battle field. So many forces deducted that the cosmic technique would be in the First Prohibited Area."
"So then we must go." Ling Xian's lips curled up. His eyes shone with thirst and desire.
A cosmic technique was a treasure all living beings lust after. He was no exception.
"It appears you have agreed."
The Goddess of Battles smiled. "To gain such a powerful ally will increase my chances of success by a lot."
"Then let's not any more waste time."
Ling Xian smiled and after summoning the Winged Blitz, he turned into a dash of light.
The Goddess of Battles and Huang Jiu Ge followed closely.
