Chapter 1336: Chapter 1336: Rendezvous

The Lotus Pool Secret Realm is a naturally formed cultivation treasure land, boasting the "Seven-Colored Lotus Pool" for Universe Level Experts to cultivate in, and the "Heavenly Ladder" for Innate Experts. The effects on the enhancement of one’s cultivation level are significant.

Therefore, any Innate Sect would rather give up a small Essence Stone Vein than forfeit a spot in the Lotus Pool Secret Realm.

The Lotus Pool Secret Realm opens once every five years, making the opportunity extremely rare. Thus, in every "Heaven Chosen List" battle, the major Innate Sects send their most talented, skilled, and promising disciples with the greatest potential for a breakthrough to participate, hoping to secure more spots in the Lotus Pool Secret Realm.

The Rou Fu sisters, being core disciples of Ruoshui Palace with high-rank Universe Level cultivation, are in theory qualified to go to the Lotus Pool Secret Realm to compete in the "Heaven Chosen List." However, considering their young age and limited experience, the higher-ups of Ruoshui Palace have not allowed them to participate, as a form of protection for the sisters.

This time, the higher-ups of Ruoshui Palace allowed the four sisters to come out for experience to increase their knowledge and worldly exposure, so that after returning to the Sect, they may have a chance to participate in this term’s "Heaven Chosen List."

"I know about the ’Heaven Chosen List’!"

Upon hearing Gu Yan mention the "Heaven Chosen List," Rou Ling’s eyes lit up with excitement as she rubbed her small, jade-like hands and said, "The Palace Master said that this term’s ’Heaven Chosen List’ is coming up, and we sisters have a chance to participate! However, we know very little about the ’Heaven Chosen List.’ Senior, you are so experienced and knowledgeable, could you tell us about it?"

Rou Fu, Rou Zhi, and Rou Xin, the other three sisters, also perked up, their eyes fixed on Gu Yan, full of expectation.

As for the Lotus Pool Secret Realm, the Rou Fu sisters had only heard of its name but had never been inside. The higher-ups of Ruoshui Palace seldom mentioned it, so they were immensely curious and eager to know more.

For any disciple of an Innate Sect, the Lotus Pool Secret Realm, which opens only once every five years and admits only a hundred Martial Artists each time, holds an unparalleled attraction; the Rou Fu sisters are no exception.

Before the Rou Fu sisters ventured out, the higher-ups of the Sect specifically informed them that after they return to Ruoshui Palace, they would rest and recuperate for a period of time. Then they would set off with several dozen talented disciples selected by the Sect, heading to the Lotus Pool Secret Realm in East Shengzhou, to compete with other Innate Sects for the hundred spots in the realm.

The Rou Fu sisters, with their high-rank Universe Level cultivation, could expect at least a small increase in their cultivation level, reaching the perfection stage of the Universe Level, should they get to practice in the Lotus Pool Secret Realm for forty-nine days.

If fortune favors them, it is not impossible to break through directly to the Innate Realm.

Since the discovery of the Lotus Pool Secret Realm, there have already been numerous precedents of high-rank Universe Level Experts surmounting the Universe Level perfection and advancing to the Innate Realm.

Although the Rou Fu sisters do not possess Innate Spiritual Roots, they are highly regarded in terms of potential, ranking among the very best of the tens of thousands of Ruoshui Palace disciples, and so the higher-ups have great expectations for them.

The higher-ups of Ruoshui Palace plan to take the Rou Fu sisters with them to this term’s "Heaven Chosen List" because their age and cultivation level have reached the participation criteria. Sending the sisters out for experience is also a move to enhance their knowledge and practical combat experience, adding a bit more assurance for the upcoming battle of the "Heaven Chosen List."

"Speaking of the ’Heaven Chosen List,’ I indeed participated in a few terms... Well, since I have nothing better to do right now, I might as well tell you some things about the ’Heaven Chosen List’..."

The Rou Fu sisters are innocent and adorable, almost universally beloved. Seeing them wide-eyed with anticipation, Gu Yan twirled his beard with a slight smile and began to elaborate on the "Heaven Chosen List" based on what he knew.

The stories Gu Yan told were breathtaking and soul-stirring. The Rou Fu sisters listened intoxicatedly, lost in reverie. The old man and the four young girls completely forgot their surroundings, so much so that they did not bother to wonder why the temperature in the Eternal Death Zone had suddenly dropped sharply.

"Look quickly! Someone is coming out of the Eternal Death Zone!"

"That is..."

"It’s Senior Fang, Senior Li and the Black and White Demons!"

"The Black and White Demons are Innate Experts of perfection, notoriously aloof and cold. How could these four come together? And they are all of infamous repute!"

"Neither Senior Fang nor Senior Li are lacking in strength either!"

...

As Gu Yan and the four sisters of Rou Fu were deep in conversation, some martial artists noticed four figures walking out from the depths of the Eternal Death Zone, and they began to speak.

"Eh? It really is them!"

"It truly is Senior Fang and the others!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yan and the four sisters of Rou Fu stopped their conversation and gazed intently, indeed seeing Fang Bai in his fluttering white robe leading the way, with equally white-robed Li Chenzhou and the Black and White Demons a few steps behind, closely following.

The four approached from the edge of the Eternal Death Zone with seemingly slow footsteps; however, each step they took covered a distance a hundredfold that of ordinary people, appearing to tread on clouds as they approached.

The disciples of Golden Crow Manor, including Manor Master Huang Canghai, recognized only Fang Bai and Li Chenzhou and did not know the Black and White Demons. However, since the four were traveling together, it indicated that the two clad in black and white robes were also undoubtedly Innate Experts.

The movements of Innate Experts were mysterious and elusive, much like the Divine Dragon that shows its head but not its tail. Ordinary martial artists would rarely see one, yet now they witnessed the presence of not just one but eight Innate Experts, including the four Elder-level figures from the Divine Fire Sect, as well as Fang Bai, Li Chenzhou, and the Black and White Demons. The disciples of Golden Crow Manor were immensely shocked by what they saw.

The Manor Master of Golden Crow Manor, Huang Canghai, had been worried that other Sects might covet the Essence Stone Vein. Seeing Fang Bai and Li Chenzhou return, his heart finally settled. With a look of excitement and joy, he led the senior officials of the Manor quickly towards Fang Bai and the others.

Four fragrant breezes swept past as the four sisters of Rou Fu dashed ahead at even greater speed, reaching Fang Bai and the others ahead of Huang Canghai and the Golden Crow Manor disciples, eagerly welcoming them.

Xia Chenyu’s mouth quirked into a smirk, and with a light twist of her waist, she stepped forward to greet them.

"Let’s go and greet them too!"

Exchanging glances with the three Divine Fire Sect Elders beside him, Gu Yan walked shoulder to shoulder with them.

In the eyes of Gu Yan and the Elder-level figures from the Divine Fire Sect, Fang Bai, Li Chenzhou, and the Black and White Demons were on par with their own Sect Master, powerful beings who were their seniors. It only made sense for them to go and pay their respects.

Upon meeting, there was no shortage of pleasantries exchanged.

Despite the many questions in the minds of Gu Yan and the others, no one dared to directly ask Fang Bai and Li Chenzhou, to avoid any discomfort.

However, the four sisters of Rou Fu had no such reservations. With their delicate faces raised, they gathered around Fang Bai and Li Chenzhou, chattering nonstop, obviously wanting to know what gains and treasures Fang Bai and Li Chenzhou had obtained after entering the core area of the Eternal Death Zone.

In response to the inquiries from the four sisters of Rou Fu, Fang Bai and Li Chenzhou patiently replied with smiles, though their answers were a mix of truth and falsehood.
