Meeting Sequoia Again

Zhuowen did not expect the Heavenly Thunder Eye to leave his glabella.

Unfortunately, the Heavenly Thunder Eye was too fast. Zhuowen did not have time to catch it before it left Zhuowen's range.

Bzzt bzzt bzzt!

The Heavenly Thunder Eye dove into the ball of lightning and exploded with the sound of thunder.

The falling ball of lightning was instantly annihilated while the Heavenly Thunder Eye flew out unscathed and returned to Zhuowen's glabella.

Zhuowen checked with his divine sense and was pleasantly surprised to find that the number of bolts of lightning in the Heavenly Thunder Eye had increased from two to twenty. This was a tenfold increase!

With so many bolts of lightning, if Zhuowen met Lei Qi again, he would not be in such a sorry state like last time.

Of course, it was still wishful thinking to use these bolts of lightning to fight Lei Qi. After all, the difference between Zhuowen and Lei Qi was not small.

"It passed! Big Brother Zhuo is amazing!" Yun Chuyu exclaimed in surprise.

As for Brother Yan and the others in front of the gate, they were all stunned. They looked at Zhuowen as if he was a monster.

At this moment, Zhuowen was satisfied. The Heavenly Thunder Eye's power had increased greatly, which meant that his trump card had become much stronger. Naturally, he was happy.

"Sir!"

Zhuo Wen brought Yun Chuyu to the front of the doorpost. Brother Yan immediately led the eight black-robed cultivators to welcome them and spoke in a deep voice.

Zhuo Wen nodded, and then he glanced at Liang Dan and the female cultivator behind him. Zhuo Wen especially glanced at the female cultivator, and then he calmly turned his head away.

The charming female cultivator's face was pale. She knew that Zhuowen was pretending not to know her.

Thinking of all the things that had happened between her and Zhuowen, the female cultivator felt uncomfortable. She did not expect Zhuowen to become so strong that she could only look up to him.

"Seeing that your harvest has been good recently, I'll be merciful this time and only take half of it!"

Zhuowen smirked and spread his right hand as he spoke to Brother Yan and the others.

"Ah?

My Lord?

This … "Brother Yan's eyes were filled with anger, but he didn't dare to express it.

"What?

You collect disaster crystals from others, so why can't I collect protection fees from you? "

Zhuowen's voice gradually turned cold. The source of the disaster crystals in the hands of Brother Yan and the others was not legitimate. Therefore, Zhuowen did not have any psychological burden to take the disaster crystals from them.

Brother Yan sighed and could only obediently hand over 05% of the Disaster Crystals on him. The other eight naturally did not dare to disobey.

Looking at the 795 Disaster Crystals in the storage bag, Zhuowen raised his brows. He was pleasantly surprised by the harvest of Brother Yan and the others.

"Recently, Zhongyu opened up the trial grounds to the four main regions, so there are a lot of newcomers here …" Brother Yan explained carefully.

After putting away the calamity crystal, Zhuowen led Yun Chuyu into the doorway.

"Zhuowen!"

Suddenly, the charming female cultivator said.

Zhuowen stopped and looked expressionlessly at the female cultivator behind him.

Yun Chuyu also felt that Zhuowen was acting strangely. Her beautiful eyes slightly frowned as she looked at the charming female cultivator behind her. She curled her lips but did not say anything.

"Miss Hongshan, what's the matter?" Zhuowen asked indifferently.

Zhuowen naturally knew this charming female cultivator. She was Hongshan from the Brahma Fiend Star Jianghong Trading Company and Wu Han's granddaughter.

Back when Zhuowen was being chased by Lei Qi's five subordinates, he happened to run into Wu Han and Hongshan. Wu Han coveted Zhuowen's Fire Spirit Juice and Profound Yellow ore vein and did not hold back at all.

Zhuowen's good impression of Hongshan had long since disappeared.

Although Zhuowen knew that Hongshan could also participate in the Interstellar Tournament, he did not expect to run into her here. It was quite a coincidence.

Hongshan's pretty face paled. She could feel the coldness in Zhuowen's voice. She lowered her head and said, "Zhuowen, I let you down back then. I didn't know that grandfather would deal with you. I only said that you had a lot of potential and needed to be roped in, but I didn't expect …"

Zhuowen shook his head and said, "You don't need to say anymore. What's done is done. I don't want to ask about your matters. Let's leave it at that!"

After saying this, Zhuowen said to Brother Yan, "If the two of them want to go in, you don't need to stop them."

After saying this, Zhuowen completely disappeared from the doorway with Yun Chuyu.

Hongshan stood there in a daze. She felt a lump in her throat, but she stubbornly refused to cry.

"Miss Hongshan, I didn't expect you to know such a capable person. I really misjudged you!"

Liang Dan hurriedly moved in front of Hongshan, a trace of reverence in his voice.

Liang Dan and Hongshan had met in the canyon. Liang Dan had been stunned when he saw Hongshan and had walked together with her. In his heart, he had already decided that she would be his future companion.

Liang Dan had also heard from Hongshan that she was only the granddaughter of the president of the Jianghong Trading Company on the Brahma Fiend Planet.

Liang Dan had also heard that the president of the Jianghong Trading Company, Wu Han, had been seriously injured and had been uprooted by the Dazzling Light Trading Company and the Long Rainbow Trading Company. Wu Han had even been killed by the two presidents.

From then on, the Jianghong Trading Company had completely disappeared from the Brahma Fiend Planet.

Hongshan had been lucky enough to be teleported away by Wu Han and had entered the trial grounds to avoid being hunted down.

Hongshan knew of Liang Dan's background, which was why she had acted together with him.

Now, Hongshan was alone and had no one to rely on. The Jianghong Trading Company had been uprooted, and the Long Rainbow Trading Company and the Dazzling Light Trading Company were eyeing her covetously.

She was very clear that if she couldn't find a strong pillar of support, even if she didn't die in the trial grounds, she wouldn't be able to live for long. The Long Rainbow Trading Company and the Dazzling Light Trading Company wouldn't let her go.

Hongshan forced a smile and said, "Senior Brother Liang is too polite. Zhuowen and I have only met once. We can't be considered good friends."

"The two of you, since the Lord has spoken, why aren't you getting in?

Don't tell me you don't want to go in? "

Big Brother Yan was suppressing a fire in his heart. Seeing Liang Dan prattling on and on, Big Brother Yan was unusually irritated and couldn't help but speak coldly.

"Ai, we'll go in now!"

Liang Dan had long since lost his previous arrogance and hurriedly pulled Hongshan into the doorway.

After entering the doorway, golden ripples spread out in front of them. Misty fog surrounded them.

"These golden ripples are specifically targeted at the Spirit?"

Zhuowen raised an eyebrow and looked at the golden ripples around him in surprise. He discovered that the golden ripples were constantly pouring into his Spirit, constantly hammering his Spirit like an awl.

However, Zhuowen's Spirit was far more powerful than the average cultivator's. The golden ripples that poured into his Spirit did not affect him at all.

Moreover, Zhuowen discovered that the moment the golden ripples entered his Spirit, they were constantly tempering his Spirit. He could clearly sense that his Spirit was slowly strengthening, but the rate of strengthening was much slower.

Compared to the relaxed Zhuowen, Yun Chuyu was not doing so well.

Her face was ghastly pale as she bit down on her lower lip. It was as if she was enduring unimaginable pain.

"Chuyu, these golden ripples are very beneficial to the Spirit. Once you endure it, your Spirit and consciousness will become much stronger," Zhuowen said softly.

Hearing this, Yun Chuyu's eyes flashed. She nodded gently and began to endure the pain of the golden ripples invading her Spirit. She also attempted to use the golden ripples to temper her Spirit.

Just as Zhuowen said, her Spirit had indeed grown by leaps and bounds.

The two of them continued to walk until they finally reached the end of the passageway. The fog dispersed.

What appeared in front of Zhuo Wen and Yun Chuyu was an incomparably large hall. Surrounding the hall was a vast expanse of rocky ground, and the rocky ground was surrounded by rolling fog.

The rocky ground was densely packed with cultivators.

Some of these cultivators were sitting cross-legged, silently cultivating. Others were shouting and fighting. It was extremely noisy.

Moreover, these fights were not over the top. Bloodshed and even deaths would often occur.

Zhuowen discovered that there was no one around the cultivators sitting cross-legged on the ground. It was extremely spacious.

Many of the surrounding cultivators looked at the cultivators sitting cross-legged with reverence in their eyes.

Zhuowen's gaze fell on the large hall in front of him. He discovered that the golden ripples here were even more intense. The closer he got to the large hall, the more intense the golden ripples became.

Suddenly, Yun Chuyu, who was beside Zhuowen, exclaimed in surprise, "Brother Zhuowen, it seems like I can extend my consciousness!"

Zhuowen looked at Yun Chuyu beside him and discovered that Yun Chuyu's consciousness could indeed be extended. Although it could only extend a few inches, it was still much better than not being able to extend her consciousness.

"Chuyu, congratulations!" Zhuowen said with a smile.

Yun Chuyu smiled sweetly and immediately looked around. She asked doubtfully, "Is this the trial ground?

There are so many people. Also, what is that large hall? "

"Let's go and ask!" Zhuowen said with a smile.

"Brother, is this the first level of the trial ground?

Also, what's with that large hall? "

As he spoke, Zhuowen casually stopped a cultivator passing by and asked with a smile.

The cultivator was slightly displeased. He looked at Zhuowen from head to toe and said snappily, "I can tell at a glance that you're a rookie who doesn't know anything. You're probably a cultivator from the other four regions who came to participate in the Interstellar Tournament, right?"

Zhuowen smiled and nodded. He did not mind this person's unfriendly attitude at all.

Seeing that Zhuowen's attitude was good, the person's expression eased a little. He continued, "In the trial ground, consciousness is more important than cultivation, especially in a place where consciousness is suppressed. The stronger one's consciousness is, the stronger one's strength will be."

"The trial ground is divided into a total of 63 levels. There is one on every level of this large hall. Only by passing the trial in this large hall can one enter the next level."

Zhuowen nodded and immediately looked at the cultivators around him who were eager to give it a try but did not enter the large hall. He asked doubtfully, "If that's the case, why don't these cultivators outside enter the trial ground?"

The cultivator shook his head and said, "The trial ground is not that simple. These people outside are all people who did not pass the trial ground. However, they are unwilling to stay on the first level, so they continue to cultivate, hoping to increase their strength and enter the second level."
