Hearing the words of the Emperor of Lingyun, Qingfeng Li frowned slightly while he considered. The emperor said only Mengyao Xu and Qingfeng Li could go with him, but Qingfeng Li had several people with him, including Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, and the Desert Giant.
He asked, “Emperor, can you bring a few more people?”
With a bitter smile, the emperor said, “I wish I could bring more people in there so we can get more spiritual treasures, spirit herbs, and other treasures. But as a low-tier kingdom, Lingyun doesn’t have more vacancies.”
After a moment’s consideration, Qingfeng Li had an idea. He asked, “Besides the three of us, can we bring some battle beasts, such as Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake?”
The emperor said, “There is no restriction on that. You can say Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake are your pets and battle beasts, but they can’t go in separately.”
Relieved, Qingfeng Li was pleased since Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake were powerful and would be great help to him.
Especially Black Puppy. With its sensitive nose, it could clearly smell a familiar scent within 10,000 kilometers and thus could find Xue Lin easily.
Besides, Black Puppy could help him track down the spirit royal spirit herbs, elixirs, and spiritual treasures. It would take him forever to find them by himself.
Qingfeng Li asked, “Emperor, when do we set off for the Sun Mystic Realm?”
The emperor said, “People usually leave for it after the day of the opening, so we will leave tomorrow and all the major forces, sects and the high-tire and super kingdoms across the whole Continent will set off tomorrow.”
Qingfeng Li nodded and set a meeting time with the emperor before returning to their hotel with Mengyao Xu.
He told the whole thing to Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake, Li Yang, and the Desert Giant.
Li Yang and the Desert Giant looked disappointed and regretful when they heard Qingfeng Li’s words since they had wanted to go with.
Qingfeng Li reached out his hand and patted Li Yang and Desert Giant on their shoulders. He comforted them, “You two don’t need to worry. I will bring you some of the spiritual treasures and spirit herbs from the Sun Mystic Realm.”
Li Yang and the Desert Giant were eventually satisfied, knowing that Qingfeng Li was a man of his words. They would be able to greatly increase their power with the spirit monarch realm spirit herbs and spiritual treasures.
Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake wagged their tails and came to Qingfeng Li, rubbing against his pant legs.
Black Puppy said, “Qingfeng Li, I know you are the best. You will definitely take me with you.”
Sky-Devouring Snake said from the side, “Black Puppy, stop your brown-nosing. You always mock Qingfeng, but I’ve always been good to him and so he will take me before he takes you.”
Hearing the bickering words between the two guys, Qingfeng Li was amused, saying, “Don’t fight. I’ve decided to take you both with me, but only as my battle beasts or you can’t go in there.”
Black Puppy was not pleased since they were two godly beasts from the ancient times, one was the ancestor of dogs and the other the ancestor of snakes. But thinking of the large number of treasures in the Sun Mystic Realm, it finally nodded and agreed to go as Qingfeng Li’s battle beast.
Meanwhile, besides Lingyun where Qingfeng Li lived, the emperors of other kingdoms, chiefs of major forces, and leaders, elders, and disciples of major sects were also selecting people to enter the Sun Mystic Realm.
In the most northern part of the Crimson Fire Continent, the Dark Ice Sect was also selecting candidates. The sect leader was a beautiful middle-aged woman named Xi Xuan.
More than ten years ago, her husband disappeared when he was exploring a mystic realm. Some guessed he had died and others said that he had been devoured by a spirit monarch realm demon beast after falling off a cliff.
Standing before her were her son Tian Xuan, Xue Lin, and some elders.
The Dark Ice Sect was a famous major sect in the northern Crimson Fire Continent, and Xi Xuan herself was a half-step spirit monarch realm master and was trying to break through into the spirit monarch realm.
But she needed some aid. She hoped they would go into the Sun Mystic Realm and get some treasures to help her break through into the spirit monarch realm.
Looking ahead, Xi Xuan said, “This time the Dark Ice Sect can recommend five people to enter the Sun Mystic Realm. Besides me, Tian Xuan, and Xue Lin, there are two vacancies left.
I’ve decided on the first elder and the second elder to go with us into the Sun Mystic Realm. Does anyone have any objections?”
Hearing her words, the facial expressions of the disciples and other elders outside changed, since they all wanted to go. But considering their weaker cultivation levels, they had to back off, though reluctantly.
Xue Lin’s charming face showed her concern since she had planned to bring the third princess and the prince of the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace, the Sky Fate Elder and Qixuan Zhenren, but it now seemed not possible.
Xue Lin wasn’t close with Qixuan Zhenren and Sky Fate Elder, but she knew that they were her husband’s important assistants.
Besides, Qixuan Zhenren and the Sky Fate Elder had been severely wounded and wouldn’t live long. Xue Lin had planned to bring them into the mystic realm and find some treasures to extend their lives. But the plan was no plausible now.
Xue Lin swore silently that if she met Qingfeng Li in the Sun Mystic Realm, she will tell him to find some spirit herbs and other treasures that could extend life.
In addition to the Dark Ice Sect, the intermediate kingdoms and sects, high-tier kingdoms and sects, and super kingdoms and sects were also selecting candidates for the expedition.
The most powerful super kingdoms on the Crimson Fire Continent were the Crimson Fire Empire, Blood Sea Empire, Sky-Breaking Empire, and Sky Demon Empire. The four empires were all governed by eighth level spirit royal masters and thus were the most powerful empires within the whole Crimson Fire Continent.
They were allowed to bring five hundred people into the Sun Mystic Realm, and that was why they had acquired most of the spirit monarch realm spiritual treasures, cultivation techniques, elixirs, spirit herbs and other treasures during the previous times when the Sun Mystic Realm had opened.
These treasures had helped these empires grow stronger, aiding more people in breaking through into the spirit monarch realm. In this way, the empires could continue to dominate the whole Crimson Fire Continent.
Besides the four super empires, the high-tier empires and intermediate empires also sent out their spirit monarch realm masters, and some spirit monarch realm sects also showed up.
The winds were up, and clouds were surging, signaling an imminent storm. With the top 200 absolute super fighters on the spirit monarch realm master list coming out, an undercurrent was surging in the whole Crimson Fire Continent. Countless ancient monsters, big devils, and absolute geniuses showed their faces and turned their eyes to the Sun Monarch Mystic Realm.
