Chapter 195 The Holy Land Under Question
The Qiankun Mirror can observe all things under heaven, and it is more than enough to observe a small formation.
But the sect leaders and elders around them were still furious.
"Lord of the Northern Ridge, you wouldn't have informed that elder beforehand, allowing him to leave secretly, and then used the Qiankun Mirror to observe, pretending nothing happened, and protecting that person, would you?"
The Sect Master of Taiyun said sternly.
He was naturally furious. Unlike other sects, all the members of the Taiyun Sect had been drawn into this competition.
He had just glanced around and discovered that everyone who had come to participate in the competition had been sent out by that elder.
In other words, their sect has been eliminated here, and they don't even have the chance to participate in the next round of the competition. This is simply outrageous!
The elders of the Northern Ridge Holy Land must have done it on purpose, deliberately eliminating everyone from their sect!
"Could there be some misunderstanding?" Some elders felt that the Northern Ridge Holy Land would not do such a thing, after all, the Holy Land has had a very good reputation for so many years.
There's no need to make things difficult for other sects at this crucial moment, is there? Isn't that just handing over leverage against them?
Some people think that the Beiling Holy Land would not do something so foolish.
However, with so many people speaking with such certainty, and so many elders filled with rage, they fell silent and simply looked at the Holy Lord of Beiling, waiting for him to give an explanation.
"Everyone, please don't be anxious. Once you see clearly what happened, you will understand the reason."
The Holy Lord of Beiling also looked helpless. He had only just heard the voice transmissions from the managers outside the Xuanwu Formation and learned what had happened.
It must be said that the Southern Spirit Sect truly produces a great many talented individuals.
No wonder Baili Xingzhou and Nangong Ye went to search for the inheritance but failed to find it, and instead it was obtained by two unknown girls.
Now it seems there's a reason for everything; those two girls weren't just lucky, they simply had the ability.
The Holy Lord of Beiling threw out the Qiankun Mirror, and suddenly a bright silver light shone in the air. Soon, everything that happened inside the Xuanwu Formation was presented to everyone.
The Qiankun Mirror is a top-grade spiritual treasure, said to be comparable to a celestial artifact. Using such a spiritual treasure requires a massive amount of spiritual energy and top-grade spirit stones.
The Holy Lord of Beiling even summoned two elders from the Beiling Holy Land, and finally inlaid a ring of top-grade spirit stones around the Qiankun Mirror before the image could be fully displayed.
This whole process really consumes a lot of spirit stones.
Unless there are special circumstances, the Holy Lord of Beiling would never bring this out.
But there was nothing he could do. Those little brats had made too much of a commotion. If he didn't take action, the reputation of the Northern Ridge Holy Land would be ruined.
So the Holy Lord of Beiling watched the scene with everyone, even while suffering from a headache.
The silver mirror reflected a majestic array of black Xuanwu (Black Tortoise) stakes, which were moving, and almost every stake had a person sitting on it.
Everyone looked wary, constantly glancing around as if they were afraid of something.
There were also quite a few people under the Xuanwu Stake, most of whom were Golden Core cultivators. Some of them were acting alone, while others were leading their teams.
Most people were wary of each other, and no one made any rash moves.
Looking through the Qiankun Mirror, this place doesn't seem like a competition venue at all, but rather like a performance.
The Sect Master of Taiyun snorted coldly: "It must be because your cover-up was too obvious that the elder stole a lot of identity tokens."
"Those who come to participate in the competition are not fools. They can sense your selfish motives and are naturally very vigilant!"
One sect leader lamented, "Your Northern Ridge Holy Land has really gone too far this time. If you don't give us an explanation, I will never bring my disciples to participate in competitions again."
Just as these people were talking amongst themselves, the Southern Spirit Sect Master suddenly interjected, "That's not entirely true; perhaps there are other reasons as well."
Yun Chong's expression was very calm; anyone who didn't know better would have thought he was also protecting the Beiling Holy Land.
The Black Serpent Sect Master opposite him gave him a careful look and scoffed, "I wondered who it was. It turns out to be Yun Chong, the Sect Master of the Southern Spirit Sect. Your sect has already reached a cooperation agreement with the Northern Ridge Holy Land, so of course you will stand up to support them at this time."
"Perhaps you've already colluded with each other, otherwise why would most of the people from the Northern Ridge Holy Land and the Southern Spirit Sect still be inside the Xuanwu Formation?"
Upon hearing the Black Serpent Sect Master's words, those around suddenly realized that quite a few people from the Northern Ridge Holy Land and the Southern Spirit Sect had indeed stayed behind.
For a moment, everyone's eyes were filled with doubt.
If they didn't collude and cover for each other, then why are there only one or two people left from other sects, while only the disciples of the Northern Ridge Holy Land and the Southern Spirit Sect have so many left?
Just as they were filled with rage, the mirror in the distance suddenly changed, turning to one of the Xuanwu pillars and reflecting the small snake that was secretly swimming on it.
The crowd could still hear the little snake's voice.
How many wooden signs do we have now?
"Not many, just over five hundred..."
"This number is still not enough. You guys wait, I've got my eye on another group. Brothers and sisters, let's move in a bit!"
