Chapter 617: 0385 Three Mountains and Five Mountains Gather in Kunlun (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Subscriptions)_2

The Dragon King said that those who work hard will have good luck.

[The trial for the first phase lasts for three months. Each time dusk falls upon Hongze, the lake water turns red, and demon ghosts will surge from the sea to attack the island you’re on, retreating at midnight. You can hunt alone or cooperate as a team, and your token will automatically calculate your points.

After three months, the top 10 million in the ranking will automatically advance to the second phase, and the rest will be eliminated! Those who advance will receive corresponding rewards—the higher the rank, the better the reward. During the day, there will be no demons in Hongze, allowing trialists to move freely, explore for treasures in the lake while being cautious of the fierce water creatures breeding there, and make their own arrangements.]

With that said, the spirit of the Water Mansion disappeared.

Zhou Ruoxue: "It’s incredible that this vast expanse of Hongze is actually a divine being’s backyard."

Bai Miaomiao: "It seems that the first phase of the trial won’t have direct collisions with geniuses from other worlds... I was hoping to meet aliens."

Shi Ruyu: "We, the human clan of Da Xia, have been fighting against the demon race for so long, we’re quite adept at demon hunting. Out of 9,999 trialists, I wonder how many can advance to the second phase."

It’s already afternoon in Hongze, and Lu Chenzhou said, "Everyone, protect me. I need to consume the Earth Element Milk."

Ye Zhiqiu: "Don’t worry, Captain. Leave it to us."

Lu Chenzhou summoned the Dog Ghost. After last night’s slaughter, it had advanced to the middle stage of the Third Realm and could be put to use.

The sweet Earth Mother’s Origin Milk, with its vast medicinal properties, circulated through his body as he practiced the True Scripture, flowing throughout his limbs and bones.

In the Inner Scenery Land, vibrant auras descended from the sky, and the shattered earth, ruptured Three Mountains and Four Peaks, visibly healed, with a healing power almost ten times that of the Green Lotus Treasure Qi. Lu Chenzhou could see with his own eyes his fractured ribs knitting back together, the wounds on his five viscera healing in an instant.

Not only his body, but his exhausted spiritual power also quickly recovered.

"It replenishes both health and mana!"

After an hour, Lu Chenzhou’s state of mind and body returned to its peak condition.

By this time, more than half of the medicinal effect remained.

These flowed into his Dantian and began to transform Lu Chenzhou’s Qi Sea.

In the Inner Scenery Land, giant Kun-like shadows emerged from the void, continually striking the Heaven and Earth Membrane.

"This is expanding my Dantian Qi Sea, increasing the capacity of True Gang, enhancing the growth and recovery rate of True Gang."

Stimulated by the medicinal properties, the "Lu Wu Demonic Cleansing Scripture" ran wildly.

Huge True Gang stones rained down from the sky, stacking like Russian Tetris blocks, falling on the Eastern Land.

Here, half of Mount Tai was still unfinished, needing 500 True Gang stones.

Two hours later, a towering high mountain stood majestically.

"Nature’s creation is divine, Yin and Yang split dawn from dusk!"

Lu Chenzhou ascended Mount Tai, viewing the Canghai from the East Stone, feeling at peace.

"Three Mountains and Five Peaks, thus completed."

Yet the medicinal effect still had remnants.

In the more western region, a divine mountain greater than the Three Mountains and Five Peaks combined took shape.

"Ancestor of a Thousand Mountains, Kunlun Mountain! This Earth Mother’s Milk saved me the effort of 2,000 True Gang stones. Truly an Earth Grade treasure."

Kunlun Mountain requires 6,000 True Gang stones, leaving him needing to condense about 4,500 more.

Unfortunately, this treasure is only highly effective on first use; later, the cost-effectiveness is very low.

Moreover, refining True Gang itself is an essential cultivation process, impossible to rely solely on herbs.

Opening his eyes, it was already dusk.

Lu Chenzhou’s Qi-blood surged vigorously, reaching 1700 points, just 300 points shy of the end realm.

After the transformation of his Qi Sea, he introspected his body.

"My Qi Sea’s capacity limit has increased by 30%. The typical grandmaster’s limit is 36,000 True Gangs, and I have 48,000... Speaking of which, 36,000 corresponds to Mount Buzhou. Then what mountain is 48,000?"

Nobody could answer Lu Chenzhou this question; even the Eternal Immortal and Dragon King only had the Heaven-reaching Immortal Armor.

In his mind, he recalled the poem by the Qinglian Sword Immortal.

"The Heavenly Platform is forty-eight thousand feet high, and gazing upon it tilts the southeast."

At the witching hour.

The waters of Hongze turned blood red.

Bai Miaomiao’s voice came: "Brother Lu, the demons are coming."

The sea roared as demon creatures with fish heads and human bodies, clad in rusted iron armor, appeared—all were Great Demons.

Lu Chenzhou said, "Form the formation, grandmasters on the outermost ring, weaker ones on the inner circle to hunt stragglers—safety first."

All he could do was assist everyone to this point, trying to make sure all advanced to the second phase to earn guaranteed rewards, leaving no one empty-handed.

"Kill!" Lu Chenzhou swept with his spear, akin to the Galaxy descending from the Nine Heavens, turning a dozen Great Demons to ashes.

Chen Jiu remarked, "It seems these demons in Hongze, like those in Battle Realm, are some sort of recyclable projection power, leaving no remains."

Wang Hongdao said, "Indeed, I initially thought of gathering materials to exchange for battle merits."

Time passed.

By midnight, all demons automatically vanished, and everyone hadn’t even had enough of the killing.

Before Lu Chenzhou, the token hovered, displaying his points:

[Lu Chenzhou: 1589 points, ranked 9578]

He glanced towards Senior Sister.

[Shi Ruyu: 15 points, ranked 9,860,000...]

Bai Miaomiao’s expression was shocked: "Brother Lu only ranked nine thousandth? Are people from other worlds so fierce?"

The group opened the leaderboard.

[Fang Bifan, 5430 points, ranked 1st]

Clicking in, there was also the battle footage.

On the island, a man clad in red feathers swung a longsword, unleashing a flaming giant sword spanning dozens of meters, sweeping with the power of the Fire Element of heaven and earth.

Where the flaming sword light passed, countless demons turned to dust.

Around the red-feathered man, there was a group of followers, driving demons towards him.

"Could this Red Feather Clan naturally command the powers of heaven and earth?"

"In Da Xia, such domains are accessible only to the Heavenly Phenomenon Master."

The group scrolled down the leaderboard, the top ten were basically similar to the Red Feather Clan.

In the Ten Thousand Water Realm, Boke of the Sea Dominating Royal Family gestured, conjuring countless water orbs in the air, obliterating everything in range.

In the Little Cold Realm, a princess of the Ice Spirit Clan with a wave of her hand froze everything.

In the Thunder Swamp Realm, the Purple Beard Clan controlled true Thunder Skill, heavenly thunder rumbling, annihilating everything.

These clans all harness the power of the Five Elements of heaven and earth to assist in combat skills or spells, not only powerful but also sustaining.

Lu Chenzhou pondered, "Indeed, this phase puts us Martial Artists at a disadvantage, lacking a true wide-area killing move besides the Sound Wave Technique."

As far as he knew, none of the top ten races were ordinary.

According to the Martial Arts Department, these races might have bloodlines from top races in the Great Wilderness or even divine beings, born transcendent.

In a one-on-one fight, Lu Chenzhou believed he wouldn’t lose to these individuals.

The ranking in the first phase signifies nothing; advancing is all that matters, just determining the amount of reward upon settlement.

His goal is to become the Master of the Water Mansion; the path ahead is still long.

The next day.

After completing their cultivation tasks, the group arranged to explore the vicinity of Hongze.

On the first day, Shi Ruyu’s luck was astonishing; she obtained a Yellow Grade treasure.

Lu Chenzhou did not go; he cultivated alone on the island.

For him, the first phase’s rewards were negligible.

Even the luck of obtaining Earth Grade treasures would waste too much time.

Hongze’s treasures were welfare for ordinary trialists.

...

Days passed.

In the first month, only First Realm Demons attacked, and everyone passed with ease.

Lu Chenzhou’s ranking steadily advanced to three thousandth.

As the second month began, numerous Second Realm Demons appeared, increasing the difficulty.

For Shi Ruyu, Chen Xiaoyun, and others, they noticeably felt stressed.

Yet, with Lu Chenzhou, the killing machine, Su City’s trial team passed comfortably, with no eliminations.

Furthermore, everyone maintained a position within the top ten million.

In the blink of an eye.

The third month arrived. Unknowingly, Lu Chenzhou reached the 357th rank.

On this day, Lu Chenzhou stood up, and a True Gang Jade Robe, enveloped with the power of the Five Elements, took shape, surrounded by towering mountains!

"The Kunlun Jade Robe is complete."
