The Road To Immortality

Preliminary Round

Two young men advanced to the top of the arena, both from small sects, one using a sword and another using a stick, after the aba - aba, the two started fighting each other.

Nang In observed the participants sitting in special chairs, guessing that most of them were 16 to 17 years old, except for 13-year-old Qiau Mey who became the youngest participant to attend this year's Young Cultivator Tournament.

Although most of them consisted of teenagers in their teens, the lowest among them had Qi Gathering level 7 and the highest at Earth Foundation level. This shows that the generation of cultivators in this era is more talented than the previous generation of cultivators.

While observing the faces of the participants Nang In's gaze met with Zhou Luong, the young man sitting on the podium of Frozen Island with Fuan Yu, Zhou Luong looked at Nang In with a curious gaze, the young man thought how Nang In could recognize Bai Luinha, even though she was an active type of girl yet Bai Luinha would not be interested in someone unless she had something interesting.

Seeing Nang In sitting on the podium of the Star Alchemist Association, the young man guessed that Nang In had an unusual identity, not only was Zhou Luong watching Nang In, but Fuan Yu had been looking at him with a stare, like he was making sure of Nang In.

'Did the Old Lady feel the Ruler Of Ice qi inside me?'

Nang In recalled Zhou Jin's words if the Frozen Island Cultivators had a sensitivity to cultivators who had a basic ice spirit, especially if it was a Nascaen Soul warrior class like Fuan Yu. Then it would be very easy to feel the qi from one's body. In addition, Fuan Yu is one of the heroes of Frozen Island who is famous for his skills in playing spears.

'I should be careful of them!'

The Ruler Of Ice for Frozen Island cultivators was considered as a figure who nourished their land, that was why Zhou Jin was so respected by the residents for being the Heaven Seal of the Ruler Of Ice. When Zhou Jin decided to look for an heir, many of the higher-ups of Frozen Island submitted their own candidates for the Heaven Seal.

However since Zhou Jin chose an heir instead of coming from within the sect, naturally many would not like to know that Nang In was the one chosen by Zhou Jin to become the next Heaven Seal.

"Finally the first game is over...!" Nang In sighed, The first match lasted only about ten minutes and was won by the young man carrying the stick, who was, he did not pay too much attention to the first game because it was not too interesting even Zihan Shi did not hesitate to yawn because he was bored.

Zihan Shi asked the next two participants to enter the arena, this time the spectators were startled by one of the participants who entered, a yellow-haired youth figure with a body as big as a bear standing in the middle of the arena, this time around, the young man was silent but the audience cheered him.

True, that person was Weiheng, the spectators especially some cultivators from small and medium sects would not accept if Weiheng who was branded as a troublemaker or criminal were allowed to enter the Tournament. This made Zihan Shi speak...

"Mr and Madam all please calm down! I accepted this young man as a participant because I had no reason to ban this young man from the Tournament, after all other than the identity of none of this young man!"

Zihan Shi straightened out the grievances of the audience, he accepted Weiheng as a participant because there was nothing wrong in his identity, except for the history of the mess he made. But it is not something that can be used as an excuse to prohibit him from competing. After all, there was no prohibition for Rouge Cultivator if they wanted to enter the Young Cultivator Tournament. As long as you have a clear identity.

"So my first opponent was a rude guy who liked to destroy things?" the handsome young man with pink hair entered the arena, the young man looked at Weiheng with a humble gaze, "I think I should sacrifice my hand to clean this one's dirt!"

Weiheng did not respond at all to the speech of the handsome young man in front of him and was only busy cleaning the earwax with his little finger.

"Really, how do you know?" asked Xuan Li.

"Hmm this is just a hunch" Nang In said with a smile. After all other than a premonition, Nang In had fought Weiheng, so he was pretty sure that Weiheng would not lose if not against Jian Long, Bai Luinha or Song Zixin.

Zihan Shi gave an aba - aba then the second match began!

A second of the match at the beginning Weiheng grinned. Pressing his feet on the floor to shatter and then sped off at high speed.

"What the fuck is he..!?"

The unprepared handsome youth instantly panicked when a fist pointed towards him and struck his face extremely hard.

A BANG!

The handsome young man slammed out of the arena to smash against the wall, his face now covered in blood with teeth that almost all fell out. The young man was finally unconscious.

"Weak! very weak!" Weiheng sneered at the handsome young man with a humble gaze then turned around to leave the fighting arena.

Seeing such a short fight made the audience gawk while Cultivator who had a relationship with the handsome young man did not accept the results and judged that what Weiheng did was against the rules.

That made Zihan Shi chuckle and had to go back to explaining that Weiheng did not break the rules at all. The one on their side did not accept if the handsome young man was defeated by the Rouge Cultivator.

'It's obvious he will win easily, after all the difference in experience of the two is so far away!'

Nang In shook his head, as far as he heard from the rumors that were circulating that Weiheng was going around the place from somewhere else to look for a strong opponent, although he would be defeated shamefully even almost killed and survived repeatedly, the life and death experiences and sensations he got were different from the spoiled youth who could only ask for elixir from the old man and walk around with pride!

When Nang In glanced one by one at the audience, he felt a murderous air that was so concentrated on him, while searching for the origin of the killer air he found a red-robed figure sitting on the bench.

'Actually who, why do I feel that person has bad intentions towards me?!'
