Chapter 178: Chapter 155 Half-step Spiral Pill
The oddities of the ancient tomb were, of course, unknown to the Rotating Pill Realm powerhouses.
Armed with the Heavenly Saint Linghua's jade token, all the strong cultivators were determined to seize this grand opportunity!
Although they couldn't enter the tomb directly with their Rotating Pill Realm cultivation, they would definitely select their most valued disciples to enter the tomb on their behalf.
The six powerhouses' arrangements met no objections, as the sects of the Seventh, Sixth, and Fifth ranks, where Rotating Pill Realm powerhouses resided, all had the chance to be allocated treasures.
And the True Qi Realm cultivators from the Eighth-rank sects, who were not given the chance to enter the tomb, could only comply with the arrangements under such a major trend, not daring to oppose in the least.
After all, this was a significant event valued by all Rotating Pill Realm powerhouses in the Heavenly Wind Kingdom; they wouldn't dare show any disrespect!
Just as their matters were not for True Qi Realm disciples to interfere with.
What the Rotating Pill Realm powerhouses had decided, these Spirit Sea Realm individuals certainly didn't dare to meddle with!
Once all arrangements were made, the six powerhouses entered the entrance of the ancient tomb together, and jointly cast their Cultivation Techniques to completely seal it, leaving behind a Divine Sense Seal to protect it.
Then, they jointly announced that there would be a month's time to summon and select those who would enter the tomb, and after that month, the adventure into the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb would officially commence!
After all the arrangements were completed, hundreds of Rotating Pill Realm powerhouses returned to their sects to prepare for the big event of entering the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb after a month.
The selection of individuals to enter the tomb was related to the distribution of their benefits, which they of course treated with the utmost seriousness.
The major event of the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb being hidden within the "Burial Demon Abyss" stirred up great waves throughout the entire Heavenly Wind Kingdom as Rotating Pill Realm powerhouses returned to their sects to select the Spirit Sea Realm disciples who would enter the tomb.
All sects, and even unaffiliated cultivators, were paying attention to this significant event.
The three major Fifth-rank sects, along with the Drunken Sword Immortal, each had thirty quota spots, and among these sects and the unaffiliated cultivators, there were more than enough powerful Spirit Sea Realm cultivators, making the selection fiercely competitive.
Some sects held selection competitions, while others had their powerhouses directly appoint those who would enter the tomb.
Everyone was preparing for the entrance to the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb a month later, and these selections would be finalized then.
After Taixuan Sect's Rotating Pill Realm powerhouses like Fairy Jia Luo returned to the sect, they also began discussing the arrangements for the quotas to enter the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb.
As a Sixth-rank sect, Taixuan Sect had ten spots to enter the tomb, far fewer than the Fifth-rank sects.
Accordingly, the chances of obtaining treasures from the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb would also be much less.
In the end, the powerhouses of Taixuan Sect decided to determine the entrants based on the Spirit Rankings.
Those who made it to the top ten of the Spirit Rankings before entering the tomb would receive Taixuan Sect's ten spots.
After all, the higher the ranking on the Spirit Board, the stronger the cultivation, increasing the likelihood of competing with disciples from other sects in the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb and seizing treasures.
When the news spread throughout Taixuan Sect, all the true inheritance disciples began a frantic rush for the Spirit Rankings.
Taixuan Sect's Spirit Rankings were based on true transmission points.
The acquisition of true transmission points could be achieved in various ways: executing various sect tasks, earning true transmission points through trials in the sect's three major trial grounds, or challenging other true inheritance disciples to seize their points, all of which could increase one's own points and rank on the Spirit Board.
True inheritance disciples from the Eight Great Inner Peaks, intent on surging up the Spirit Rankings, flooded the various trial grounds, undertaking numerous sect tasks, and even the "True Inheritance Battle Platform" for disciple challenges became overcrowded.
The rankings on Taixuan Sect's true inheritance Spirit Board shifted constantly.
Everyone was watching the Spirit Rankings, eager to see which ten individuals would ultimately earn the right to enter the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb!
After the regulations for Taixuan Sect's ten entrants to the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb were established, Fairy Jia Luo returned to Snowdrift Peak.
Once back at Snowdrift Peak, she summoned Jiang Yao to the "Snowdrift Residence" at the peak's summit—and Ye Chen accompanied Jiang Yao inside Snowdrift Residence.
When Ye Chen and Jiang Yao heard about the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb, both were taken aback.
They had both entered the relics of the Heavenly Saint previously—the Thousand Lotus Cave Abode where they met was part of the Heavenly Saint's relics!
But neither had ever entered the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb—the tomb bearing the Heavenly Saint Realm powerhouses was indeed a major event in the Heavenly Wind Kingdom!
"Master, Yao'er will surely enter the tomb and strive to seize that 'Law Relic' for you!" said Jiang Yao firmly to Fairy Jia Luo, after hearing about the immensely important Law Relic in the tomb, accessible only to Spirit Sea Realm powerhouses.
Watching Jiang Yao's earnest little face, Fairy Jia Luo stroked her head, "Yao'er, I called you here not for that 'Law Relic'."
"You have cultivated the bloodline secret technique to the second layer and can now overpower late-stage Spirit Sea powerhouses, but you are still not on par with those half-step Rotating Pill disciples."
"Our Taixuan Sect only has two half-step Rotating Pill disciples, but there are quite a few in those three major Fifth-rank sects. In the end, it's likely that those half-step Rotating Pill disciples will seize that 'Law Relic'!"
"Yao'er, remember, this Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb is not only highly beneficial for Rotating Pill Realm powerhouses, but also precious to Spirit Sea Realm cultivators. After entering, you don't need to compete with those half-step Rotating Pill disciples for the 'Law Relic.' Just find opportunities that suit you," she added.
