The yandere senior sister pretended to be stupid to trick me, it made me feel numb!

Chapter 593 Relapse of old illness

After listening to Wu Zixu's story, Zhao Mu finally understood what the qualifying competition was.

Both Yan Qingyue and Ji Qingyue had briefly described the Fire God Festival to him.

The former said that the Fire God Festival was the compensation that the Fire God Temple made to the forces of the world after occupying the ancient volcanic clusters. Every hundred years, all forces were invited to gather at the Fire God Temple to share the opportunity of the ancient volcanic clusters.

The latter told him what the three major sacrifices were. The Fire God Sacrifice was essentially a gathering of various forces to reinforce the seal of the world's channel, and it happened exactly once every hundred years.

Although both sides say different things, they are both true.

As for this quota competition, it is actually very simple to understand. During the Centennial Fire God Festival, any invited forces can enter the ancient volcanic group to look for opportunities, but the opportunities contained in each area are different.

The place where the Fire God Festival is held, which is also the place where the ancient seal is located, is the place with the best opportunity.

However, since this place seals the world's passage, the ancient seal has limited bearing capacity and only allows cultivators above the Tiangang realm and below the Yin-Yang realm to enter.

Below the Tiangang realm, one's strength is too weak to cope with the unknown dangers of the sealed land, and the gains and losses are completely disproportionate.

When one's cultivation reaches the Yin-Yang Realm, it means that one's strength is too strong and exceeds the endurance limit of the seal. Yes, it is indeed possible for a few people to enter the Yin-Yang Realm, but on the contrary, no one else can enter at all. The cost-effectiveness is extremely low.

You know, if someone were to enter from the Tiangang Realm, Kongming Realm, or Siji Realm.

The seal can withstand a maximum of 10,000 Tiangang realms, 1,000 Kongming realms and 1004 Ji realms. Comparing the two, it is obvious which one is better.

The qualifying competition is for these 11,100 positions.

After explaining the qualifying competition to Zhao Mu, Wu Zixu simply gave a brief description of the gathering at Sifang Pavilion as well.

"Other than that, this gathering is pretty much the same as a normal exchange meeting. There are discussions, exchanges, and even the Fire God Temple, as the leader, will host a small auction each time..."

Listening to Wu Zixu's narration, Zhao Mu raised his eyebrows, his interest piqued, and said with a smile: "Brother Wu, will there be many people attending the Sifang Pavilion exchange meeting?"

"It's natural."

"Then we can start implementing what we discussed before!"

After receiving a positive answer, Zhao Mu had an evil smile on his face.

"Unscrupulous Taoist priest?"

Xia Ningzhi, Wu Zixu, and Yan Hongling said in unison.

Although Ji Qingyue did not participate in the last conspiracy, she knew long ago that Zhao Mu wanted to use a sting operation to lure out that stinky Taoist priest. After all, that unscrupulous Taoist priest still had the supreme thunder liquid that Zhao Mu wanted.

"What are you going to use to lure that Taoist priest out?"

Ji Qingyue asked.

Wu Zixu and the other two also looked towards Zhao Mu upon hearing the voice.

"Use this."

A dark blue bead appeared in Zhao Mu's palm, which immediately caused Wu Zixu to exclaim.

"Is this... Earth Spirit Pearl?"

"good."

Zhao Mu nodded with a smile, "That unscrupulous Taoist priest is good at formations, and this Earth Spirit Pearl, as a panacea, plays a significant role in assisting in setting up formations. It is a treasure coveted by alchemists, weapon refiners, and formation masters."

Zhao Mu was not exaggerating when he said this.

Because even Xu Wujing, who has reached the great perfection of the Tribulation Realm, could not resist this thing, which is enough to show how tempting the Earth Spirit Pearl is.

He believed that the unscrupulous Taoist priest would definitely be unable to resist.

"Zhao Mu, you have to plan this carefully. After all, this is the Earth Spirit Pearl. We certainly won't have any bad intentions, but people's hearts are unpredictable. Who knows, those above the Four Extremes Realm might plot against you."

Xia Ningzhi's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and she reminded her friend seriously, "After all, as you said, this item has an irresistible temptation for alchemists, weapon refiners, and formation masters."

"I see."

Zhao Mu smiled and nodded. Since he dared to use such a valuable item as bait, he must have thought of a foolproof plan.

However, Xia Ningzhi's reminder was still very helpful to him.

This friend really has no connection with me.

Although Wu Zixu didn't say anything, it was clear from his expression that he had the same opinion as the Ninth Princess.

Just as the few people were negotiating, Zhao Mu suddenly covered his chest and his face changed.

"what happened to you?"

Ji Qingyue was the first to notice it, and hurriedly supported Zhao Mu and asked with concern.

"I don't know what's going on. I just feel this inexplicable palpitations, and nervousness, and even... a groaning... a feeling of suffocation."

Zhao Mu's condition was visibly getting worse. Wu Zixu, Xia Ningzhi and Yan Hongling all looked at him nervously.

"No...it's nothing serious, I just need to rest for a while."

Zhao Mu waved to his three friends, indicating that he was fine. He then said to Ji Qingyue, "Don't worry. This feeling is quite similar to last time, but it's a thousand times milder. Help me into the house."

"it is good."

Ji Qingyue nodded and helped Zhao Mu into the house.

Outside the house, Wu Zixu, Xia Ningzhi and Yan Hongling looked at each other, all confused by this sudden change.

Wu Zixu: "Is Zhao Mu okay?"

Xia Ningzhi: "It should be fine. Judging from what he just said, this is probably not the first time it's happened."

Yan Hongling: "I'm worried, let's go get Senior Sister Yan."

Before he finished speaking, a woman in a blue and white Liuxian dress floated in, ignored the three people and went straight into the house. It was Yan Qingyue.

"What's up with him?"

As soon as she entered the room, Yan Qingyue noticed that Zhao Mu looked extremely pale. Even breathing became difficult due to inexplicable nervousness, and his whole body was trembling slightly.

"I don't know the exact cause, but it shouldn't be anything serious. The last time it suddenly flared up, it was a thousand times more serious than it is now. After a while, it inexplicably recovered."

Although Ji Qingyue said this, the worry in her eyes became more intense.

Known problems can be solved, but unknown changes are like an invisible bomb that may explode at any time. It could be recovered last time, and maybe it can be recovered this time, but what about the future? Who can guarantee it?

Although these two women dislike each other and don't want the other to have anything to do with Zhao Mu, in the current situation, each one is calmer than the other and is working together.

"We have asked Elder Wenhui about this matter, but she didn't know the reason. She also examined Zhao Mu's body and found nothing wrong. I have also searched many ancient books and consulted some respected medical experts, but to no avail."

Ji Qingyue took the initiative to state the situation.

Yan Qingyue frowned slightly when she heard this, and quickly stepped forward. She hugged Zhao Mu in her arms in front of Ji Qingyue, and lowered her head slightly, wanting to touch her eyebrows with Zhao Mu's.

"do not want!"

Seeing this, Ji Qingyue exclaimed subconsciously.

Boom~

When Yan Qingyue touched Zhao Mu's brow and was about to try a soul connection to check the situation, an indescribable repulsive force suddenly burst out, ruthlessly pushing Yan Qingyue away. She staggered a few steps before finally stopping.

"this....."
