Swordsman the Wanderer
Ch. 405 - Long Xioba's Eternal Enemy
"Well, do you want to go to that tournament?" Long Xioba asked Zhang En"Do you also want to win first place?"
Zhang En laughed, “Of course! Who doesn't want to be first?”
Long Xioba again said, “It's not that I underestimated you, even though your talent is indeed outstanding, your chances of winning first place in that tournament are not very high. In each tournament, the number of disciples taking part of the four galaxies surpassed one billion participants, each and every one of them were powerful and talented geniuses, respectively, their weakest cultivation was the Second Star Heavenly God realm, even, with that realm, it could only be considered ordinary!"
Long Xioba had not finished explaining, “In the four galaxies, regardless of his status and identity, one would have two chances to participate in that competition. When I first participated, my strength was at the peak of the late stage of Second Star Heavenly Deity, I couldn't even rank in the top hundred. My second participation at the time of my strength was at the realm of a three-star Heavenly Deity, and I barely made it into rank 100. ”
Zhang En's bitter smile seemed plastered on his face.
"The monstrous geniuses in the four galaxies, their strength is not as simple as you think. Some of them held on for a long time, until the time the competition had arrived, before revealing their shocking strength in front of everyone. You have great talent and a strong Demon God Dragon body, but there are geniuses who are not inferior to you in terms of talent. If you want to really win first place, at the very least, you should be an early stage Gold God cultivator. ”
"If I can reach that realm, is there a chance for me to win?" Zhang En was curious to know.
"only 50%. If you can break through to the top of the Golden God, the chances will increase to 80%."
Zhang En was stunned, asking, "When will the next competition be held?"
"It's held once every thousand years, estimating the time according to the second time I participated, the next Competition is roughly about two hundred and thirty years later." Long Xioba shook his head saying this, “Two hundred and thirty years old, no matter how you cultivate, there is no way you can reach that realm in such a short period of time. I suggest that you give up on this thought, it would be best if you wait another thousand years to be in the next competition."
Zhang En frowned when he heard Long Xioba's words.
Even if he could go to the Demonic World Realm to cultivate in a superior world, it would still be impossible for him to break through to that realm in over two hundred years.
But Zhang En would not wait another thousand years.
“Do not think iru for now,” Long Xioba's voice cuts Zhang En's mind, “First find the treasure we are looking for. To you, the Gold God realm cultivator competition is still a long way off. Set your goal on how to deal with student competition five years later. I feel that the purpose behind the three Fire Spirit Sect Elders working together with the Heavenly Dragon Sect is not that simple. Who knows, they might be targeting the same treasure we're looking for. ”
"Really ?!" Zhang En was doubtful.
In fact, many people heard that there was a treasure hidden deep within the Ice Forest." Long Xioba explained, “This is not at all a big secret. It's just that, in these tens of thousands of years, no one has ever found it, so as time goes by, people stop looking for it. In the deeper parts of this Ice Forest, other than the demon beasts of the Heavenly God realm, there was a high chance that a high-level Golden God demon beast would appear, those who came looking for luck in the forest, they were the ones who came looking for good fortune, nine out of ten people barely make it out alive.”
Zhang En nodded with a serious expression.
“Although I got the treasure map and it was in my hands and the time I came looking for it several times in this forest, at that time, I had just found the treasure, I had just found it, there was not enough time even to pass through the door of the residence when my rival enemies and a group of peak stage Gold God Realm cultivators surrounded me. Despite having escaped death at that time, unfortunately.!” Long Xioba paused on his words, but the implied meaning was clear.
It was only at this moment that Zhang En discovered the cause of Long Xioba's body's destruction and severe injuries to his soul.
"Who is your eternal enemy?" The cause and reason aroused Zhang En's curiosity.
Long Xioba said, “Not knowing this now is better for you. If you can win first place compotition of the Golden God realm, and break through to the realm of a high-level golden God Realm, I will inform you at that time!"
Seeing that Long Xioba was unwilling to mention the identity of his enemy, Zhang En also did not answer the question. He then continued flying.
'Forget it, since I'm already here, I'll do it carefully.' Zhang En comforted himself. Uniting his aura, he increased his vigilance as he flew.
The forest gradually darkened.
"Tomorrow, you should be able to reach the location of the treasure." Long Xioba's voice rang out in his mind, then continued, "The deepest region of the Ice Forest is extremely dangerous at night, it would be best if you rest at night and keep moving during the day."
Zhang En pondered for a moment then nodded in agreement. It's also a good option, after all, they're not in a hurry right now. Furthermore, if those six people had actually come for the same treasure he was looking for, it would be useless even if he were to rush the relocation.
"I know a very hidden cave around here, you can spend the night there."
Following Long Xioba's direction, Zhang En immediately found the cave. The cave was located in the middle of a high cliff, covered by a layer of snow, and had a protective formation placed by Long Xioba many years ago. This cave is indeed a good and safe hiding place.
