Chapter 347 Immortal Demon Battlefield_2
"Your Mist Shadow Immortal Sect can participate, but my Yu Hua Sect can't?"
Wu Shuang glanced at the person, coldly laughed, her tone carried a hint of severity.
Li Qian looked at Wu Shuang, curious if there was any animosity between her and the person.
"That's not the case, it's just that your Yu Hua Sect may lose some celestial registry,"
the man in the blue robe said with a smile.
With more sects participating, the ultimate reallocating of celestial registry would naturally be more extensive.
The rule for celestial registry reallocation is quite simple; only the top three can increase their registry, distributed in a seven-to-two-to-one ratio.
As for those after the top three, not only do they not gain new registry, they even lose some of it.
It's precisely this harsh rule that keeps the number of participating sects limited during each celestial registry reallocation.
This time, over a dozen is considered quite a lot, mainly because the newly available over one thousand celestial registries are tempting enough for many sects.
There is certainly a need to compete.
Especially for some sects that lost registry slots in previous reallocations, they are surely eager to reclaim them this time around.
"There's no need for you to worry about that."
Wu Shuang said indifferently.
"Hehe, Wu Shuang, let me remind you, our Mist Shadow Immortal Sect has produced a Daluo Daoist Master, and the first place this time is ours to claim,"
the man in the blue robe laughed lightly, his confidence evident in his tone.
After speaking, he left with the others in stride.
"What's up with that guy?"
Li Qian asked.
"Two hundred years ago, didn't the Primordial Demon Sect destroy a sect from the Ninth Layer? That Mist Shadow Immortal Sect, originates from the Ninth Layer..."
Wu Shuang said, "I had a conflict with this person due to some interests... hence the resentment."
"Then this time, won't we have just the right opportunity to settle old scores?"
Li Qian laughed lightly.
"Exactly."
Wu Shuang smiled.
She now possesses Nascent Soul Realm cultivation, her Principle Seed transformed into the World Tree, rooted in the world... comparable to Primordial Daoist Master level.
After waiting for a long time, suddenly a figure appeared above the Floating Island.
A powerful pressure enveloped the entire area.
"It's a Primordial Daoist Master, and even one of the elite kind..."
Li Qian immediately assessed.
However, he restrained his own aura, maintaining at the Taiyi Daoist Master level.
He's confident that as long as it's not a Super Immortal Golden Immortal, certainly it can't be detected.
Moreover, the celestial registry reallocation is among the Lower Heaven sects, so surely a Super Immortal Golden Immortal won't appear, not even an Immortal Golden Immortal likely.
The scene quieted down.
Over a hundred pairs of eyes fell on the figure.
"For this celestial registry reallocation, the rules will be changed, no longer using the arena format."
The Primordial Daoist Master in the air began to speak.
The crowd immediately burst into commotion.
Not using the arena format means a lot of variables.
For certain sects initially full of confidence, this undoubtedly poses a disadvantage.
However, since the celestial registry reallocation is hosted by the Immortal Court, any changes in the rules are certainly by their hand, and no sect on-site dares to voice dissatisfaction.
"Elder, may I ask what format the celestial registry reallocation will proceed in this time?"
A Dao Master from a sect immediately asked loudly.
"You will enter a Immortal Demon Battlefield to fight against the demon spawn of the Primordial Demon Sect... the more demon spawn you kill, the higher points your sect will earn, and the final ranking will be determined by the points accumulated."
The Primordial Daoist Master in the sky spoke.
Those present exchanged glances.
Arena competitions, while posing risk of injury, carry very low risk of death.
But going into a Secret Realm to battle demon cultivators from the Primordial Demon Sect, the fatality rate becomes extremely high.
"Elder, our strength varies greatly, with Heavenly Immortal, Profound Immortal, and Daoist levels. Doesn't this pose great risk for Heavenly Immortals and Profound Immortals?"
Someone asked again.
"Rest assured, the Immortal Demon Battlefield has three layers: Dao Masters face Demon Lords, Heavenly Immortals face Heavenly Demons, and Profound Immortals face Profound Demons. These are the battlefield rules, and... besides your Lower Heaven sects, those from Middle and Upper Heaven as well as even Immortal Sect will also have participants,"
the Primordial Daoist Master said.
Everyone understood; this celestial registry reallocation seems to be a reason for the Immortal Court to confront the Primordial Demon Sect.
Although the Primordial Daoist Master said there are rules, many people are still worried.
After all, the opponent is the Primordial Demon Sect.
This is an elite outside force that can contend with the Immortal Court.
And for the sects present, they are mere insignificant specks compared to the Primordial Demon Sect.
Sects originally very confident are now deeply anxious, losing their confidence.
Only Li Qian and Wu Shuang were calm.
After all, Wu Shuang is a Primordial Daoist Master, and Li Qian is even higher at Unity Realm stage.
The only issue is, will Li Qian's Unity Realm stage cultivation be detected when entering the Immortal Demon Battlefield?
That's a bit of a concern.
Nonetheless, as things have reached this stage, Li Qian definitely isn't likely to withdraw.
"Of course, entering the Immortal Demon Battlefield comes with high risk, so any of you who wish to opt-out can do so now. However, if you withdraw, you'll be deemed to have failed and have the corresponding registry slot deducted,"
the floating Primordial Daoist Master added.
The arena became very quiet.
No sect opted out.
Despite the high risk, the reward is substantial.
To withdraw just because of the danger would make them a laughing stock should word spread.
The Dao Masters present had all survived many life-and-death situations to achieve what they had today; their resolve is naturally firm, even though the danger of the Immortal Demon Battlefield is high, none chose to withdraw at this time.
To withdraw would incur too great a cost.
They would directly lose some of their registry slots.
This loss, they simply cannot bear.
"Since no one is withdrawing, then it's settled. I will now lead you to the transmission site,"
the Primordial Daoist Master in the sky stated.
Thus, under the leadership of this Primordial Daoist Master, nearly two hundred cultivators from a dozen sects immediately rode their Spiritual Artifacts and followed away from the Floating Island.
In this way, nearly two hundred cultivators traveled via the Transmission Array to the entrance of the Immortal Demon Battlefield.
At this moment, there were unexpectedly many cultivators gathered here, as many as a few thousand.
"Elder, are all these people here to participate in the celestial registry reallocation?"
Someone curiously asked.
"Certainly not; it's said this is the entrance to the Immortal Demon Battlefield, where it remains open year-round..."
The Primordial Daoist Master shook his head and said, "As long as you enter the Immortal Demon Battlefield and slay demon spawn, you can gain achievements... this has been a measure upheld by the Immortal Court for hundreds of thousands of years, though it ceased operation for several thousand years until the Primordial Demon Sect reemerged over two hundred years ago, prompting its restart."
Those entering the Immortal Demon Battlefield mostly belong to the Upper Thirty-Three Heaven sects.
To acquire more high-grade resources, they can only risk venturing into the battlefield, slaying demon spawn, accumulating achievements, and exchanging for resources...
Of course, those from Immortal Sect also send immortal cultivators inside.
And often, top-level powerhouses enter as well.
Without extremely strong immortal cultivators stationed there, it would essentially be sending them to their deaths.
After listening to what the Primordial Daoist Master said, Li Qian and the others understood that the purpose of the Immortal Demon Battlefield is to deplete the power of the Primordial Demon Sect.
Of course, the Primordial Demon Sect similarly intends to weaken the Immortal Court.
Except as time passed, neither could eliminate the other, resulting in a protracted war of attrition.
Still, Li Qian suspected the Immortal Demon Battlefield serves more than that.
Perhaps with too many immortal and demon cultivators, this method reduces their numbers, thus lessening resource consumption.
Moreover, survivors could gain more high-level resources, making it doubly beneficial.
At this moment, a huge spatial vortex appeared in mid-air, appearing deep and terrifying.
"Alright, the entrance to the battlefield is now open. Once you enter, you'll automatically receive an imprint. Just killing demon spawn will automatically tally your points. Only after staying for three months can you exit, remember... if you survive, when three months are up, you must promptly transmit out; exceeding the time means your points won't count towards the celestial registry reallocation tallying."
The Primordial Daoist Master reminded them.
At that moment, numerous cultivators flew towards the spatial vortex.
Li Qian and the other nine gathered together, following the crowd towards the vortex.
