Chapter 6122: Conquering the Crowd
Baili Zilin didn’t advance right after entering the world created by Luck Saint Realm. On the contrary, he stopped.
Some Netherworld Sectmembers thought that Baili Zilin was confused about where he should go, so they secretly sent him messages via voice transmission.
“You don’t need to tip me off. I have my ways,” Baili Zilin suddenly said.
The worried Netherworld Sectmembers zipped up their mouths.
Baili Zilin didn’t know his destination, but that didn’t mean he had no clue where he should head to. He had stopped to describe his surroundings to Jie Mubai so that the latter could analyze the situation and determine his next move.
Seconds later, he flew into the forest in front of him.
The forest transformed as soon as he stepped into it. At the same time, a powerful restraint preventing him from flying was placed on him. Before he knew it, he found himself trapped in a forest labyrinth.
But Baili Zilin didn’t lose his nerves, and neither did he attempt to blast his way out. Instead, he calmly navigated his way through the forest.
“How does Baili Zilin have such a deep understanding of that world?” Daoist Third Dragon asked with a frown.
It was the right decision for Baili Zilin to navigate his way through the labyrinth instead of resorting to brute strength. The labyrinth formation was formidable; there was no way he could have destroyed the forest. Thus, the only way out was to decipher the labyrinth.
What surprised Daoist Third Dragon was that Baili Zilin had seen through that, and it looked like he knew the solution to the labyrinth too.
“You can’t tell, Third Brother?” Daoist Second Dragon laughed. “World spiritist techniques are built on spirit power. Even with young friend Chu Feng’s level of talent, someone with his spirit power could never hope to deal with such a problem so easily. Someone is giving guidance to Baili Zilin, and he’s just doing what he is instructed to. No wonder young friend Chu Feng calls him a puppet.”
Daoist Second Dragon had spoken those words out loud, and his words, as a pinnacle True Dragon World Spiritist, had weight.
It sparked discussions among the crowd.
“What nonsense are you blabbering?!” a Netherworld General berated in anger.
Daoist Second Dragon felt many cold glares directed at him, but he remained unfazed.
“Why? Are we not allowed to speculate? Your young master shouldn’t fear such discussions if his capabilities are the real deal,” Daoist Second Dragon scoffed.
“Indeed.”
The other daoists nodded in agreement.
Daoist First Dragon was the only one who didn’t say a word, but it was evident from his expression that he wouldn’t hold back if the Netherworld Sect made a move on his brothers.
They were aware of Chu Feng’s conflicts with the Netherworld Sect, and they had come here today with the intent to back Chu Feng. It was for that reason that they criticized Baili Zilin aloud.
“You’re trying to sway public opinion by defaming our young master,” another Netherworld General said.
“Sway public opinion?” Ouyang Kongyu sneered. “Your Netherworld Sect said a lot about young friend Chu Feng before he arrived. Does that not count as swaying public opinion? You don’t hesitate to criticize others, yet you act like a victim whenever the Netherworld Sect is criticized.
Ouyang Kongyu’s eyes remained on the formation realm’s center. He couldn’t be bothered to look the Netherworld Sectmembers in the eye.
“You...”
The Netherworld Sectmembers were displeased, but they were unable to do anything about Ouyang Kongyu. He was a Heavenly Dragon World Spiritist, after all.
“Let them say what they want. There’s no point arguing,” Jimo Qianzhou suddenly interjected. “The world will come to know who is the real deal once Baili Zilin clears the trial and obtains the strongest luck energy.”
He was annoyed too, but he couldn’t act too domineering as the Netherworld Sect was trying to put on a righteous front in public. Furthermore, the Netherworld Sect would suffer heavy losses too if a fight broke out here.
It would be wiser to let go of this matter.
“He succeeded! Incredible!”
The crowd was awed.
Baili Zilin had navigated his way out of the forest labyrinth.
Once he was out of the forest labyrinth, he raised the black sword manifested from the stone monument formation up to his chest level while forming hand seals with his left hand.
Boom!
The trees in the forest shook, producing countless green specks of light that flew into Baili Zilin’s black sword like a rewound meteor storm.
“What’s that?”
The juniors were confused.
“It looks like some kind of special energy.”
The older cultivators were unable to see through those green specks of light, but they could tell that they were important to the trial.
Baili Zilin didn’t head straight for the mountain peak afterward. Instead, he took detours, journeying through a marsh, a lake, a desert, and more.
These places had their unique formations; some had powerful monstrous beasts prowling, and some were filled with traps. It wouldn’t have been easy to overcome those dangers.
The crowd initially thought that Baili Zilin could easily clear the remaining challenges after being buffed with such a powerful support formation, but they quickly realized that the energy from the support formation wasn’t enough to clear the trial.
More than that, Baili Zilin needed to be sharp and discerning too.
The challenges he faced were so complicated that even the older cultivators found themselves stumped, but he would always find a way to swiftly and cleanly resolve them.
It came to a point where a deafening applause would break out each time he cleared a challenge, The more challenges he cleared, the more the crowd admired him.
Jimo Qianzhou was right.
The strong had the biggest say in the world of cultivation. The world only listened to the words of the victor.
And Baili Zilin was winning the crowd over with his competency right now.
Right now, Baili Zilin was faced with hundreds of stone behemoths that were hundreds of thousands of meters tall. These stone behemoths emanated the aura of a Heavenly God, and they had the means to set up formations too.
To make things worse, these stone behemoths would come back to life after being killed, making it impossible to get rid of them for good.
The crowd was worried for Baili Zilin. They had no idea how he could overcome this ordeal.
Baili Zilin calmly moved among the stone behemoths. All of a sudden, he brandished his blade, and a stone behemoth’s head was sent flying.
All other stone behemoths dissipated right away.
In truth, there was only one real stone behemoth, and the others were illusions. This was why the stone behemoths could endlessly ‘come back to life’ no matter how they were chopped up.
The crux to this challenge was to find the real stone behemoth and slay it.
“Incredible. How did he see through that so quickly?”
A resounding applause broke out. The crowd was filled with praises for Baili Zilin.
Baili Zilin relished in their compliments. He formed a hand seal, and another surge of energy flowed into his black sword.
After he was done, he looked in Chu Feng’s direction and scoffed, “You still aren’t making a move? Are you hoping to copy my formation deciphering method? Don’t bother. The formation deciphering method changes each time the formation is activated. You can’t overcome these challenges by copying me.”
There was no response from Chu Feng, but Baili Zilin knew for a fact that Chu Feng could hear him. The latter was merely ignoring him, and that irked Baili Zilin.
