Chapter 2168 - 2168 Trap

2168 Trap

In a thousand years, he cultivated from a Grade 6 Earth Immortal to a Grade 8 Earth Immortal—that cultivation speed was terrifying.

Even someone like Princess Scarlet Rainbow who had almost unlimited cultivation resources could not do it.

For the past 100,000 years, Yun Ting was the only one in the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain who could cultivate at such a terrifying speed!

After the shock, Princess Scarlet Rainbow quickly regained her composure.

“Let’s go. We’ll head to the Essence Spirit Pavilion first and claim the Essence Spirit Stones you acc.u.mulated over the years.”

Princess Scarlet Rainbow remarked.

Even if the outer sect disciples of the academy did not complete any missions, they would receive 1,000 Essence Spirit Stones every year for a thousand years.

If one could advance to the Heaven Essence realm within a thousand years and join the inner sect, they would naturally move on to claim the rewards of the inner sect disciples.

If they could not break through within a thousand years, they would have to complete some missions arranged by the academy if they wanted to obtain Essence Spirit Stones.

For the past thousand years, Su Zimo had been in seclusion. Every year, his Essence Spirit Stones were stored in the Essence Spirit Pavilion.

A rough count amounted to a million stones—that was not a small figure.

Su Zimo and Princess Scarlet Rainbow flew through the air towards the Essence Spirit Princes Pavilion.

Along the way, Princess Scarlet Rainbow smiled. “Since you’ve cultivated to become a Grade 8 Earth Immortal, it no longer matters that you didn’t take part in the outer sect compet.i.tion.”

“Why do you say that?”

Su Zimo asked.

Princess Scarlet Rainbow said, “There’s nothing interesting about the outer sect compet.i.tion. It’s just a fight between outer sect disciples to prepare for the upcoming 10,000 Year Meet.”

“For every outer sect compet.i.tion, 20 outer sect disciples will be selected to take part in the 10,000 Year Meet to fight for a spot on the Earth Ranking.”

“Although you didn’t take part in the outer sect compet.i.tion and are not among the 20 rankings, given your capabilities, the academy will definitely let you accompany them.”

A thousand years ago, at the Immortal Sect Selection of Coiling Dragon Mountain Range.

Su Zimo, who was only a Grade 6 Earth Immortal, singlehandedly wiped out more than a hundred Execution Guards of the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom and became the number one of the Immortal Sect Selection.

The terrifying power and methods displayed by Su Zimo in that battle were still fresh in Princess Scarlet Rainbow’s memories.

If that was the case when he was a Grade 6 Earth Immortal, which of the outer sect disciples could go against Su Zimo now that he was a Grade 8 Earth Immortal?

As they chatted, the two of them arrived at the Essence Spirit Pavilion.

At the entrance of Essence Spirit Pavilion, Steward Chen of the outer sect was patrolling the vicinity. When he caught sight of Su Zimo and Princess Scarlet Rainbow, his expression darkened and a dark look flashed through his eyes.

“Stop right there!”

Steward Chen went forward and stopped Su Zimo.

Su Zimo had some impression of Steward Chen.

Back when they had just joined the outer sect and arrived here, it was this Steward Chen who received them—this was a mean and sarcastic person.

According to Princess Scarlet Rainbow, Steward Chen was merely an outer sect disciple in the past. When he saw that he had no hope of joining the inner sect, he converted into an outer sect steward.

One could even obtain a reward of Essence Spirit Stones for this job.

“Steward Chen, what can I do for you?”

Su Zimo asked indifferently.

Steward Chen looked askance at Su Zimo. “Why are you going to the Essence Spirit Pavilion?”

“To retrieve the Essence Spirit Stones that I’ve acc.u.mulated in the Essence Spirit Pavilion over the years,”

Su Zimo did not hide his intentions and said straightforwardly.

“Take it.”

Steward Chen took out a storage bag and threw it to Su Zimo.

Su Zimo opened the storage bag and took a look. He said expressionlessly, “The number is wrong. There are only less than 200,000 Essence Spirit Stones in this storage bag. I should have gotten a million!”

“A million?”

Steward Chen sneered, “Ever since you joined the academy, you haven’t even shown yourself, let alone completed any missions. What rights do you have to collect a million Essence Spirit Stones?!”

“Let me tell you, giving you 200,000 is already a great gift!”

“Bullsh*t!”

Princess Scarlet Rainbow could not take it anymore and could not help but say, “The sect has a rule that there’s no need to complete any missions for Essence Spirit Stones within a thousand years of joining the academy!”

“Princess, this is none of your business. It’s best if you don’t interfere,”

Steward Chen seemed to be wary of Princess Scarlet Rainbow and said.

Su Zimo was puzzled.

He had never interacted with Steward Chen before and had no feud with the latter—why would the latter suddenly target him?

If he truly had any enemy in the academy, it would be Sword Immortal Yue Hua.

However, there was no way Sword Immortal Yue Hua knew that he was the divine dragon on the Dragon Abyss Star back then.

Even if the two of them met again, Sword Immortal Yue Hua might not remember him.

“You pocketed my remaining 800,000 Essence Spirit Stones for yourself, right?”

Su Zimo glared at Steward Chen and suddenly spoke.

“What did you say?!”

As though he had exploded, Steward Chen raised his pitch and turned to glare at Su Zimo with an unfriendly expression.

The conflict here gradually attracted the attention of many surrounding cultivators and disciples as more and more people gathered.

Steward Chen’s face flushed red as he pointed at Su Zimo’s nose and grit his teeth. “Let me tell you, just because you slandered me earlier on, I can make you scram from the outer sect and become a servant of the academy!”

“Su Zimo, as an outer sect disciple, how dare you spout nonsense and slander an outer sect steward! Do you understand the severity of your actions?!”

Right then, a figure stood out from the crowd and hollered righteously.

Lu Wenbin.

Su Zimo narrowed his eyes slightly.

A thousand years ago, he had seen this person in the Immortal Sect Selection and even fought him.

At that time, Lu Wenbin attacked consecutively, wanting to stop Su Zimo from going forward to greet the four immortal sects. However, he failed consecutively and lost face.

Could Lu Wenbin be holding a grudge because of that?

Suddenly!

A thought flashed through Su Zimo’s mind as he thought of a possibility.

“What’s Lu Wenbin’s ranking in the outer sect compet.i.tion?”

Su Zimo sent a voice transmission with his spirit consciousness.

“20. Why?”

Princess Scarlet Rainbow replied.

When he heard that, Su Zimo sneered internally.

Lu Wenbin must be worried that after he came out of seclusion, he would s.n.a.t.c.h away his spot to take part in the 10,000 Year Meet. That was the reason why he joined forces with Steward Chen to stage today’s scene.

“Steward Chen, you’re not qualified to enforce the law in the outer sect,”

Su Zimo walked slowly towards Steward Chen with a cold gaze. He exuded a shuddering aura that was suffocating!

“Hand over my Essence Spirit Stones!”

He took a step forward and extended his palm. Like an enraged Vajra, he glared at Steward Chen and shouted with a voice like a bell.

A glint flashed through the depths of Lu Wenbin’s eyes when he saw that.

This act of his seemed like it was filled with loopholes.

However, he had witnessed Su Zimo’s personality and methods during the Immortal Sect Selection.

In his opinion, Su Zimo could not endure such grievances.

Given Su Zimo’s decisive nature to kill, he would definitely fight after being targeted as such!

Private fights were not allowed in Heaven and Earth Academy.

If anyone wanted to fight, they would have to head to the Sword Discourse Arena of the Academy.

If there were private fights, the lightest outcome would be a drop in the disciple’s status and the worst outcome would be for them to be kicked out of the academy!

As long as Su Zimo attacked, he would win!

When he saw that Su Zimo was enraged and was walking step by step into his trap, Lu Wenbin’s heart burned with uncontrollable excitement.
