If he became a Divine Son, Zhang Ruochen would be able to access the higher secrets of the Blood God Sect, and moreover, he would be able to get a steady stream of cultivation resources, so he could wait for his time.
At the same time, becoming a Divine Son could really dissolve the Blood God Compulsion, which could save Zhang Ruochen a lot of trouble.
Regardless of the purpose, competing for the position of Divine Son of the Blood God Sect was also something Zhang Ruochen was bound to do.
Thus, Zhang Ruochen nodded to Dharma King Haixian and agreed.
“Since you have cultivated the Seven Orifices Blood Underworld Palm to the sixth orifice, then there is also a 30% chance that you will be able to compete for the position of Divine Son over the other few.”Dharma King Sea Underworld said.
A 30% chance was already great, enough to be ranked into the top five amongst the Divine Son candidates.
Zhang Ruochen quizzed, “Even if you cultivate into the sixth aperture, you only have a 30% chance?”
The Sea Underworld Dharma King nodded, his voice a little hoarse and invisible, with a sinister aura, saying, “Your physique is very powerful, and your enlightenment is also extremely high, however, the technique that you cultivate is only the Blood Dragon Sutra, a Ghost Grade Upper Grade Technique, and compared to those heavenly prides that cultivate King Grade Sacred Scriptures, you’re still in a disadvantageous position in the end.”?
“The fact that you were able to cultivate to the sixth aperture is entirely with the help of luck, if not for this bit of luck, I’m afraid that the probability of you becoming a Divine Son would only be 10% at most.”
“Furthermore, competing for the position of Divine Son and not being able to use the power of the Blood God Compass is also a limitation for you.”
Obviously, in the view of Dharma King Hai Mei, Zhang Ruochen’s ability to become the Flag Lord was mainly a result of borrowing the power of the Blood God Compass, coupled with some luck.
It wasn’t very favourable to him, and even if he had a chance to become a Divine Son, the probability wouldn’t be too high.
A genius who cultivated a Ghost Grade Upper Grade Technique would be able to fight a genius who cultivated a King Grade Sacred Canon?
A divine son, needed to be very good in all aspects and could not have weaknesses.
Dharma King Hai Mei added, ”The competition for the position of Divine Son of an ancient sect is greater than you can imagine. Once you become a Divine Son, you will be transformed into a dragon and become a human being, enough to be on par with the saints. Not only yourself, but even the family behind the Divine Son will be able to flourish and obtain endless resources.”
“The reason why Mei Lanzhu was able to become a Divine Son was not because of his natural talent, which has surpassed everyone in the sect. The celestials who defy him are, in fact, a large number of people.”
“It’s just that his performance at the Boundary Son Banquet was just too eye-catching, sitting in the tenth rank of the King’s Seat, and drinking the Great Sage Tongtian Tea that the Empress personally bestowed on him, his potential increased greatly. On top of that, there are also some external factors, and with all the reasons stacked heavily on top of each other, the position of Divine Son would be his.”
“This time, to compete for the position of Divine Son, in addition to Bai Yu and Yan Kongming whom you’ve met, there are also some characters younger than you, and some characters of a higher seniority than you who are taking part, the competition can be described as unprecedentedly fierce.”
After thinking for a moment, Venerable Lord Hai Mei continued, “Now, the Sacred Veins and Meridians in your body, are already set, and you cannot change to another technique.”
“Then, for the next month, you should devote yourself to cultivation, and strive to raise your cultivation a bit more, breaking through to the middle stage of the Third Stage Half-Saint. If you need the assistance of pills, by all means look for your Uncle Ji.”
Zhang Ruochen glanced towards Ji Shui and nodded gently.
He still had some good feelings and curiosity towards this Senior Uncle Ji who had always stood in the blood mist and had never revealed his true form.
“When you have the chance, make a trip to the Qian Zi Heavenly Palace, look for a suitable King Grade Sacred Canon, and spend some more time comprehending it. Even if you can’t directly cultivate it, it will still allow you to improve quite a bit. In the future, if you really have a great chance to reach the Saint realm, you will still have a not insignificant chance to cultivate another technique instead.”
Only after instructing everything in its entirety did Dharma King Hai Moi allow Ji Shui to bring Zhang Ruochen to retreat.
Until Ji Shui and Zhang Ruochen walked away, a gloomy look appeared in Blue Night’s eyes as he said in a low voice, “Master, this son is very proud, if he becomes a Divine Son and removes the threat from the Blood God Compass, I’m afraid that he won’t be able to obey the discipline.”
The smile on Dharma King Hai Mei’s face disappeared cleanly, and his body was permeated with an aura of cold fury as he said, “Even if he becomes a Divine Son, he will only have a somewhat higher status, and receive more abundant resources. With that little cultivation of his, how can he still turn out of the palm of Lao Fu’s hand?”
Venerable Lord Hai Mei was a controlling person who would never allow anyone to betray him. Even if, Gu Linfeng did become a Divine Son, if he didn’t listen, he still had some means to get him killed without God knowing it.
Ji Shui was not taking Zhang Ruochen to the Pixie Character Heavenly Palace, instead, he was heading out of the direction of the Jiegu Snow Mountain.
Zhang Ruochen unfolded his stance and followed closely behind Ji Shui as he asked, “Uncle Ji, where are we going?”
Ji Shui’s body, which was covered in blood mist, seemed to have no real body at all as he indifferently said, “Master has already dealt with Palace Master Qi, you do not need to return to the Pure Word Heavenly Palace for the time being, and you need to prepare for the battle with all your might. For the next month, I will be the one to instruct you in your cultivation until the day of the Divine Son Battle.”
Ji Shui did not tell Zhang Ruochen where he was going, and Zhang Ruochen did not continue to ask.
Ji Shui’s cultivation was very strong, giving Zhang Ruochen the feeling that her realm was a bit more profound than Blue Night.
Moreover, the technique she cultivated was quite bizarre, and even Zhang Ruochen could not see through her true realm. Of course, that was because, Zhang Ruochen did not cast out his Heavenly Eyes.
After exiting the Absolute Ancient Snow Mountain, the two of them transformed into two holy lights flying away from the air, displaying their speed to the extreme.
The Blood God Sect had a long history, having given birth to more than one Great Saint, and the founding ancestor was even a God, occupying a territory that was naturally quite vast, overrunning many spiritual mountains and blessed lands.
After flying for more than a thousand miles, Ji Shui gradually slowed down and glided downwards, landing on the ground.
Zhang Ruochen also flew down and stood beside her, looking forward.
It was a very grand mountain that rose above the plains, connecting all the way above the clouds, and it was impossible to tell just how high it was.
The mountain exposed below the clouds was already more than six thousand metres, appearing majestic and emitting a purple-green spiritual light.
“It’s actually a purple cloud aura, there must be a holy vein underneath the ground of this mountain.”Zhang Ruochen was somewhat surprised.
The clouds that floated in the sky were not real clouds, but a sea of Qi condensed from the Heaven and Earth’s Holy Qi, enveloping a radius of three hundred miles, turning this place, into a fairyland.
For ordinary clans, to be able to find a place with sufficient heaven and earth aura to establish a mountain gate was already quite good.
Forces that were able to possess a holy vein were the true behemoths, with an ancient heritage, not something that could be compared to those upstart sects that only had a history of thousands of years.
“This mountain, named Qian Yuan Mountain, is guarded by one of the Cross Heavenly Palaces, Qian Zi Heavenly Palace. At the top of that mountain, it houses the Blood God Sect’s billions of hidden books. Below the mountain to the waist, a number of cultivation caves have been opened up, and as long as a disciple contributes to the Blood God Sect, they will have the opportunity to go to Qian Yuan Mountain for a period of time to cultivate.”
Ji Shui explained to Zhang Ruochen as he travelled towards Qian Yuan Mountain.
Zhang Ruochen said, “I don’t seem to have made any contribution to the Blood God Sect, whatsoever.”
Ji Shui continued, “The Sect Master gave a holy order that before the Divine Son Contest, as long as the disciples who were counted by the Qian Zi Heavenly Palace and had the potential to become Divine Sons, they could enter Qian Yuan Mountain to train.”
Arriving at the bottom of Mount Qian Yuan, a withered and thin old man stood at the entrance into the mountain, wearing robes that represented the Qian Character Heavenly Palace.
According to Ji Shui, this person was Elder Xu of the Qian Zi Heavenly Palace, possessing a cultivation of a Ninth Order Half Saint, and could be considered a Qian Zi Heavenly Palace Elder-level figure.
Anyone who came to Qian Yuan Mountain must also obtain Elder Xu’s approval before they could enter the mountain.
On top of that, there were people who had arrived one step ahead of them.
There were three sets of people in total.
The first set of people were Wu Ji, the seventh disciple of the City Market Dharma King, and Bai Yu, Wu Ji’s disciple.
Bai Yu, who possessed the Flying Immortal Sacred Body, was the man of the moment in the Blood God Sect and was unrivalled in his pride.
Obviously, he was also one of the candidates for the Divine Son and was qualified to enter the Qian Yuan Mountain to cultivate.
During the competition for the Flag Master, Bai Yu had fought with Zhang Ruochen once and was seriously injured, losing face and his status in the Blood God Sect was in tatters.
Seeing Zhang Ruochen again, Bai Yu’s face, naturally, showed sulking and snorted coldly, “Truly an enemy.”?
Zhang Ruochen ignored him, appearing calm and peaceful.
