You guess?
How about you guess whether I’m going to guess?
Shen Tian looked at that old man in purple clothes, speechless.
Just where did this old guy learn how to leave someone hanging?
Don’t you know that readers would send blades to those writers who love to leave the readers in suspension?
You actually want me to guess?
I have a 10,000-years-old Executing Heaven Sword hidden within my lung, believe it or not, just a cut with this sword can give you tetanus!
Shen Tian sighed deeply in his heart, but he was still respectful on the surface. “Senior has an extraordinary and sophisticated appearance, so you must be a Perfected Immortal blessed by the heavens. I really cannot guess what Senior is thinking. It can’t be that I am as handsome as when Senior was young, right?”
That old man in purple clothes nodded as if it ought to be. “That’s right! Isn’t this one reason enough?”
Shen Tian, “???”
It can’t be like this, Senior!
Are all powerful beings like you so willful?
Other people would need to undergo trials before they were able to obtain the fortuitous opportunity.
Then just because I’m handsome, you directly allowed me to meet with you!?
Senior, is it really good for you to be this biased?
Seeing Shen Tian’s weird expression, the old man in purple clothes could not help but smile. “You’re not funny at all. No wonder you’re still a virgin.”
Shen Tian, “???”
You bad old man, such a personal remark is going too far!
So what if I’m a virgin? I’m only 16 years old and am still underage, isn’t this normal!?
Also, how is being funny or not related to being a virgin? Can you not anyhow relate these two completely irrelevant concepts?
Shen Tian asked helplessly, “Senior, just who are you?”
The old man in purple clothes smiled and continued to pour his tea, then drinking it.
He replied calmly, “I am Ye Qingcang, the most handsome man in the Celestial World.
“Because I was too handsome and my talent was unparalleled, I was sought after by tens of thousands of people in the Celestial World.
“Countless Fairies were deeply in love with me, which attracted too many powerful enemies who were envious of me. Thus, they collaborated and tried to kill me.
“Without any other choice, I could only self-explode my divine body and kill half of my powerful enemies before bringing my God of War Pagoda down to the mortal world.
Ye Qingcang sighed helplessly before continuing. “Recalling the memorable years in the past, I cannot bear to look back on them. The long river of space and time is distant, the distinguished and admirable me is no more.”
Seeing the old man in purple clothes drinking tea with a serious expression and his deep wrinkles like dumpling skin from smiling, Shen Tian could not help but put his palm to his face.
Speaking such shameless words with the looks of a Perfected Immortal blessed by the heavens, this was the demeanor of a peerless powerful cultivator?
He felt that besides his Master, all the powerful cultivators who he had encountered were all abnormal.
Shen Tian helplessly said, “Senior, is there anything you would like to tell me after guiding me to the top of the pagoda?”
Ye Qingcang looked at Shen Tian and smiled amiably. “I’ve only seen only one handsome man in the past 10,000, and that is you.
“Also, you’re cultivating the Tinder Sutra, and you have already obtained a total of four extraordinary items. Your talent and providence are unparalleled.
“If I guessed correctly, then you’re the cultivation genius that I’ve been waiting for the past 10,000 years. You have the talent to rule the Celestial World!
“So, do you like this God of War Pagoda? As long as you want, this pagoda is yours!”
Shen Tian, “???”
Shen Tian replied, “Didn’t you say that a powerful genius’ projection would be formed in each level of this pagoda, only by beating all the geniuses and obtaining the acknowledgment of this God of War Pagoda could you become the master of this pagoda?”
Ye Qingcang nodded as if it was a matter of course.
“Yeap! There’s a total of seven floors in the God of War Pagoda, representing the seven grades of geniuses.
“If one could beat the seven floors’ genius of the same cultivation level, then that person would definitely be a peerless genius in the Celestial World.
“Such a peerless genius would naturally have the qualifications to be acknowledged by me and thus inherit this God of War Pagoda and become invincible.”
Shen Tian said, “But I haven’t even started the trial!”
Ye Qingcang indifferently waved his hand.
“Don’t mind it. That’s just a trial for outsiders.
“Who are you? You’re the only existence in the past 10,000 years that could be compared to me in appearance. You might even be of my bloodline!
“Since the God of War Pagoda is mine, if I say you can inherit it, then you can inherit it.
“Even if I really let you fight from the first floor, those genius projections would not dare to go full out and fight you.
“Since it’s just going through the procedures, then it’s better just not to waste that time and directly decide that it’s you!
“Or else, how is it possible for mortals in the human world to win against a seven-star genius?”
Seeing how Ye Qingcang took things for granted, Shen Tian boiled with rage.
How could this guy say that the trial is “rigged” so confidently?
Also, if you want to cotton up to me, just do it. What the f*ck do you mean that “I may be a descendant of your bloodline”? You’re just taking advantage of me!
If it didn’t seem like he was ready to give Shen Tian some benefits, he would definitely be cursing this old man in his heart.
...
After sighing, Shen Tian said, “Since it’s impossible for them to win against the seven-star genius on the seventh floor, then why does Senior still let them come to try the trial?”
Ye Qingcang smiled mysteriously.
“Your handsome face is wasted on you.
“Naturally, it’s for popularity! If no one obtained benefits from the trial, who would help you advertise? If it wasn’t so, then how could I promote my pagoda and thus find a true inheritor like you?”
It’s just for advertisement!?
Shen Tian asked, “How come I hear that there would be fortuitous opportunity rewards on every floor of the trial? There’s also some that obtain peerless immortal sutras and unparalleled Divine artifacts?”
Ye Qingcang nodded. “Of course there are rewards. But there are no items such as Divine artifacts and Immortal artifacts within the rewards.
“The God of War Pagoda rewards are only all kinds of precious cultivation techniques, offensive skills, mighty prowess, and mystic techniques that could be reproduced unlimitedly.
“It’s not free for them to go through the trial. They would need to take out corresponding treasures to be able to fight with the genius projections on each level. It’s a fair and just bet.
“Most of the so-called geniuses of your world did not even pass the first floor. Few were able to even reach the second level.
“Basically, they would bring the treasures they had worked so hard to find in the Primordial Battlefield into the pagoda to bet.
“If one had good luck, then they could indeed win one to two peerless techniques and return proudly.
“However, most of them would fail on the first level then leave the pagoda with the consolation prize heritage dejectedly.
“As for the saying of ‘The God of War Pagoda rewards Immortal artifacts and Divine artifacts’, it’s most likely those people that failed did not want to lose face. Thus they thought of it to deceive the outside!
“Anyway, I have obtained quite the amount of good items these 10,000 years, hahaha!
“If not, I couldn’t even stabilize the crack of the God of War Pagoda for this long.”
Sigh... So he’s also an old liar.
Shen Tian reluctantly asked, “That’s to say, no matter who, as long as they come to the God of War Pagoda, they would be guided in?”
Ye Qingcang nodded as if it was a matter of course. “Naturally, they would use all kinds of treasures to exchange for heritage techniques. Of course I would welcome them!
“Anyway, all those are but simple arts and techniques, only those people that are green and inexperienced would take these as treasures.
“Only those two kids from the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground 1,000 years ago were indeed rare geniuses.
“I appeared personally and gave them both quite a good heritage.”
Those two kids from the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground?
Shen Tian was stunned. “My sect’s seniors?”
Ye Qingcang nodded. “I remember one is called Zhang Longyuan. He looked dead serious on the surface, but actually, still waters run deep.
“He had passed the fifth floor and was a genius even rare to come by in the Celestial World.
“However, he only wanted to find the forbidden chapter of the Divine Firmament’s Imperial Sutra, so I gave him the Heavenly Dao Sutra to slowly fill in the missing chapter.
“Another kid named Chu Longhe, I took quite a liking to him, and he stayed in the pagoda with me for quite a long time.
“Also, he’s indeed a peerless genius cultivating Godfiend Body Tempering, so I gave him some profound Body Tempering techniques.
“If those two kids did not die, then they should count as top powerful cultivators in your world, right?”
Looking at Ye Qingcang, who kept on rattling on because he seemed to have not communicated with people for too long, Shen Tian was astonished.
This old man is amazing!
...
Just as he spoke, Ye Qingcang suddenly thought of something. “That’s right, that idiot outside the pagoda is also your follower?”
Outside the pagoda, idiot?
Senior asked, “Senior, may I know who you are speaking of?”
Ye Qingcang gently touched his sleeves, and a ray of white light gathered in front of the two of them. That white light was like a transparent mirror, and a gloomy person appeared on the other side of the mirror.
It was Jin Yu.
Currently, the wings behind him had turned dim, and he was in low spirits as he slumped in front of the God of War Pagoda.
He was saying, “I have already said thousands of times, I am Shen Tian’s follower, you damn pagoda, can you understand me!?
“My admiration toward Shen Tian is endless like the stream of water and overflowing out of control like the flooding of the Yellow River, how can you question my heartfelt admiration!?
“Hurry and let me in, hurry... Phew, let me catch my breath. I have fought alongside Shen Tian, do you understand me!?”
Ssss!
Shen Tian was astonished.
Jin Yu ah Jin Yu, I never thought you were like this. You were so tsundere in front of me.
‘But not that I’m not there, you can say such shameless words. Where’s your pride as a Great Golden-Winged Eagle descendant?
Shen Tian asked, “Senior, how come everyone that has come could enter the trial, but he was stopped?”
Ye Qingcang snorted as he touched his beard. “Originally, those that have found my pagoda are all people fated with my God of War Pagoda.
“However, this idiot kept on calling my pagoda ‘broken pagoda’, ‘shabby pagoda’, he’s too rude, wanton. Where are his manners?
“If it was when I was young, I would definitely use a rod to stab him from his butt to his mouth and grill him!
“Tian’er, tell me clearly, is this idiot really your follower?
“If he’s not, then I’ll just kill him off for it to be quiet.”
Shen Tian, “...”
After sighing, Shen Tian said, “Senior, Jin Yu is my friend, and he owes me a huge debt.”
Ye Qingcang seemed to be deep in thought. “Oh, being friends doesn’t matter to me, but more importantly, he owes you a huge debt? Then indeed he cannot be killed, alright then!”
After thinking for a moment, Ye Qingcang directly waved his sleeve. “I see that the saber and battle armor on him are quite good, so I’ll give him a chance to enter the trial!”
As a purple light flew into the mirror, the door to the God of War Pagoda gradually opened.
Creak~
Within the rainbow-colored heavenly light, Jin Yu was moved to tears.
“I-I can finally enter the trial!
“Nine days, for a total of nine days and nights!
“I was almost going to be brainwashed!”
