Global Cultivation: First-time Top-up for the Ultimate Destiny Treasure

Chapter 44: Great Desolate Ruins, the Trial before the Sect Competition

Nie Ling stopped in her tracks when she heard Li Mengxi’s question.

“Great desolate ruins? What are you talking about?”

Su Yi asked curiously. He looked at Nie Ling, and it was obvious that she knew.

“Fellow Daoist Su, I came to look for you a few days ago because of this matter. It’s just that you were cultivating at that time, so I didn’t tell you.”

“The great desolate ruins is…”

She was about to explain to Su Yi when Li Mengxi caught up from behind and said lightly.

“Su Yi, it’s normal that you don’t know about the great desolate ruins. You’re not from the Central Plains, nor are you from a large family clan, so you naturally don’t know about this information.”

“It’s just that the great wilderness ruins can be said to be a trial before the opening of the Tiandao sect.”

“Trial? There’s such a thing as a trial?”

He was a bit puzzled. Was the opening of the Tiandao sect not a grand competition? There was such a thing as a trial?

Li Mengxi looked at him and explained.

“The trial is just a general term. Every time the Tiandao sect opens, a strange phenomenon will arise in the great desolate region one month before the opening of the sect.”

“Then, some ancient ruins will appear in the great desolate region. Among the ruins, there are treasures that can increase one’s cultivation base, as well as all sorts of top-grade magic treasures. But at the same time, there are quite a few dangers.”

“There may be demon beasts in the ruins, or there may be traps set up by magic arrays. But what’s more terrifying is the remnant souls left behind from the ancient times. Those remnant souls are far stronger than foundation establishment cultivators of the same realm.”

“That’s why, gradually, the ruins were said to be a trial. Because those who were able to come out alive all had bountiful harvests.”

“Oh right, I heard that the last time the ruins were opened, there was someone who obtained an immortal spiritual herb inside and raised his spiritual root by one level.”

After saying that, she looked at Su Yi and realized that his expression had changed. He must be thinking about this.

As if she had received a satisfactory answer, the corners of Li Mengxi’s mouth curled up. A faint smile appeared on her beautiful face as she waited for the other party’s response.

After Su Yi heard about it, he was indeed a little moved. Not to mention obtaining all sorts of magic treasures, just the magic treasures that could raise one’s cultivation level was enough to move his heart.

Originally, he had been seizing his cultivation level for the Tiandao sect’s grand competition. However, there was still more than a month before the Tiandao sect’s grand competition.

In such a short period of time, even with the Starry Sea Bottle’s refinement and help, he might not be able to break through to the third layer of the foundation establishment stage, let alone break through to the middle stage.

And the opening of the great desolate ruins was obviously for those geniuses to make a breakthrough in the final month. How could he not participate?

Besides, Li Mengxi waited for a long time and did not receive any response, so she continued to speak indifferently.

“Although the great desoalte ruins is good, it’s a pity that there are still restrictions to enter.”

“Therefore, those who can enter the ruins are all people who are envied by the heavens.”

“What restrictions?” Su Yi asked.

From his slightly shining eyes, it could be seen that he had a strong intention to enter the great desolate ruins.

Unexpectedly, Li Mengxi sighed and said.

“Sigh, it’s just the Dao age and cultivation. Dao age should be below 50 years old, but that cultivation is above foundation establishment. In other words, you can’t enter the ruins without foundation establishment.”

From the corner of her eyes, she looked at Su Yi,

However, what surprised her was that Su Yi didn’t reveal a sense of disappointment.

Could it be that he had also broken through to the foundation establishment realm? This absurd thought emerged in Li Mengxi’s mind. After all, she had only broken through to the foundation establishment realm a month ago.

Not to mention the cultivation resources of the Li family, her spiritual root was one of the rarest top-grade spiritual roots. Even if she came to Central Plains, it would still be one of the top-grade spiritual roots.

But soon, her absurd thought was confirmed.

Su Yi nodded and said.

“Dao age below 50, cultivation above foundation establishment, that’s quite a high limit.”

“Su Yi, what do you mean, don’t tell me you’ve also reached the foundation establishment?” Li Mengxi asked in disbelief. Perhaps she already had an answer in her heart.

Looking at Li Mengxi’s disbelief, he did not hide anything and only said lightly, “you’ve already guessed it, haven’t you?”

“This, I still don’t quite believe it. Or should I say, you must be another Su Yi?”

Her eyes continuously swept over Su Yi, as if she wanted to see through him.

Nie Ling, who was at the side, pursed her small lips. Her gaze was a little dazed, and no one knew what she was thinking.

“No, I’m still the same Su Yi from before. As for why I was able to reach foundation establishment realm, that’s a personal secret.”

His expression was indifferent as a figure dressed in white flashed through his mind. At this moment, he did not know what her realm was, but she must have already reached the foundation establishment stage.

“I’m sorry, I asked too much.”

Li Mengxi did not probe further. If she continued to ask, it would only make people feel that her motives were impure.

“So, fellow Daoist Su, do you want to follow my Li family’s team to the great desolate ruins?”

She looked at Su Yi and sent him an invitation, but this time, she placed him in the same position.

He did not answer immediately, but looked at Nie Ling and asked.

“Fellow Daoist Nie, can you go to the great desolate ruins?”

“Of course I can. Although the trading firm needs to develop, I also want to participate in the Tiandao sect competition. Just…”

Nie Ling replied, her body emitting a faint foundation establishment aura.

“Just what?” Su Yi was stunned.

When did this girl break through to the foundation establishment realm?

He was very curious about this. Nie Ling’s talent was definitely not bad, but he did not expect her breakthrough at all.

“It’s just that the Nie family still doesn’t know which area to expand to, right?”

Li Mengxi said with a slight smile. Although the Nie family was better than the Li family in business, they were still not as well-informed as her Li family.

Nie Ling looked at Su Yi and admitted.

“Indeed, it is a problem.”

“That’s good. Why don’t Miss Nie come with us? Such an opportunity like the ruins is always first come, first served.”

“Since it’s first come, first served, then why did fellow Daoist Li come to us? If you don’t tell us, wouldn’t it mean that there will be two less people competing for the opportunity?”

Su Yi looked at Li Mengxi with a somewhat cold and solemn expression. If she could not give him a valid reason today, he would let Nie Ling take the risk. So what if he entered the ruins a little later?

Seeing Su Yi’s expression, Li Mengxi was not a fool. She understood what he wanted to say.

Li Mengxi said, “fellow Daoist Su, you and I are quite familiar with each other, and there’s no direct conflict between us. Do you think I trust you or others in the Central Plains?”

Hearing this, he thought about it and realized that it was indeed the case. Li Mengxi had no reason to harm them.

Moreover, after witnessing the actions of one of the chosen from the central plains, he felt that there were some reckless people among those chosen.

He looked at Nie Ling and nodded. After receiving Su Yi’s affirmation, Nie Ling also nodded slightly.

He looked at Li Mengxi and said, “alright, we’ll join.”

“Okay, three days later, I’ll be waiting for you at the teleportation array in the south of Horizon City.”

After saying this, Li Mengxi left the Nie family branch.
