My Master Knows It All

1092: Chapter 283_5 1092: Chapter 283_5 Xiang Ziyu was baffled.

Under normal circumstances, an expert who had reached the Ten Phenomena Perfect Completion Golden Core wouldn’t die immediately from detonating a Golden Core, let alone if they detonated all their Golden Cores, they could still possibly be rescued.

The Peak Master of Lightning Peak, Lan Pili, had once mentioned that the Grand Preceptor’s disciple, Yu Tuoyu, in order to annihilate a Blood Demon, detonated his Golden Core.

In the end, his master saved him and sent him to another disciple of the Grand Preceptor, and Yu Tuoyu even made a miraculous recovery.

Also, their Hundred Peaks Sect’s Liè Yàn had detonated his Golden Core before, but after giving him a Cycle of Nirvana Pill, Liè Yàn too survived.

Not to mention the Ten Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, probably anyone with more than five Golden Cores wouldn’t die from detonating a single Golden Core.

His own Xu Ying had ten phenomena Golden Cores, so how could it die from just one exploding?

Could it be because it was only a Xu Ying?

Its Mana had reached the limit of the Golden Core Stage, just like him, but its physical body was much weaker?

That didn’t seem right either.

Perhaps, it was precisely because it was an Xu Ying that it died upon the detonation of the Golden Core?

Xiang Ziyu couldn’t make sense of why this situation would occur.

As the Xu Ying exploded, in front of him, a bridge appeared, different from the previous ones.

Before him now was a Rainbow Bridge, one end connected to him, while the other seemed to stretch into the void.

“Cough cough…” Xiang Ziyu coughed up a large mouthful of bright red blood.

He didn’t know how long the bridge would remain or if, after the Rainbow Bridge disappeared, he would be unable to enter the next layer.

Even now, though gravely injured, he had no choice but to keep crawling forward.

At long last, he painstakingly made his way onto the bridge and then crawled along it toward what lay ahead.

Outside the Cloud Reaching Sect.

Cao Zhen, flying with the group, finally arrived outside the Cloud Reaching Sect.

Then, everyone instinctively split up.

The members of the Cloud Reaching Sect, noticing the arrival of so many people together, would certainly not activate the Formation immediately; instead, they would separate them.

They needed to enter in separate batches.

Their strategy seemed sound, but once Cao Zhen arrived with the first group, the Cloud Reaching Sect promptly signaled for them to join the others and directly enter the Great Formation.

Cao Zhen didn’t care with whom he entered the Great Formation.

After all, if a hundred people were to be chosen for the next round, given his current strength, even if only one out of a hundred was to be chosen, it would still likely be him.

Yet, as he approached the Great Formation, ready to step inside, the entire Formation began to shake violently.

Above the Sky-reaching Formation, a rainbow appeared.

Instantly, an uproar of exclamations erupted.

“What’s going on?

Someone has touched the Rainbow Bridge!”

“Now, during the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth, can someone actually touch the Rainbow Bridge?”

“Someone triggered the Rainbow Bridge, which means, now no one else can enter the Sky-reaching Formation!

With the appearance of the Rainbow Bridge, the Formation’s power will be channeled into the checkpoint beyond the bridge, so it’s no longer possible for others to enter.”

“Usually, in the second round of the Great Formation, one encounters an Xu Ying of the same Cultivation Realm, but that Xu Ying won’t possess your Divine Skills.

It will know the typical Divine Skills of the Cloud Reaching Sect and those common in our Eastern Province, and it won’t possess any Divine Weapons.

So, even if the Xu Ying matches your Cultivation Realm and power, due to the difference in Divine Weapons, treasures, Divine Skills, even physical strength, it would not be a match for you.

However, to trigger the Rainbow Bridge, there is only one way – to annihilate the Xu Ying in an instant.

That’s extremely difficult.”

“Yes, although the Xu Ying lacks Divine Weapons and perhaps isn’t as physically strong, it still matches your Cultivation Realm and power.

Once the Xu Ying realizes it’s outmatched, it will immediately yield, signaling that you can progress to the next round.”

“Defeating an Xu Ying is not difficult, but to instantaneously annihilate it is nearly impossible.”

“All the major teachings of our Eastern Province hold grand ceremonies, and every Great Teaching has checkpoints similar to the Sky-reaching Formation for us to challenge.

But it’s been thirty thousand years since anyone during a grand ceremony could trigger the Rainbow Bridge.”

“Triggering the Rainbow Bridge, and if one could again instantly defeat the next opponent, they could go straight to the last round and step onto the Rainbow Stairway, to witness the Path of the Great Dao!”

“This person has the opportunity to witness the Path of the Great Dao, but who could it be?”

“Perhaps it’s Sacred Flower Sect’s Huo Fanqi!”

“Yes, it must be him!

Huo Fanqi is a renowned genius of the Sacred Flower Sect!

Moreover, Huo Fanqi has just entered the Great Formation.

Based on the timing, it’s likely that he’s the one who triggered the Rainbow Bridge.”

Everyone knew of the Sacred Flower Sect, but some were not aware of Huo Fanqi.

Hearing the crowd mention Huo Fanqi, out of curiosity, someone asked, “Who is Huo Fanqi?”

“You don’t know who Huo Fanqi is?

Do you at least know of the Sacred Flower Sect’s Huo Fanshu?”

“Of course, one of the renowned Three Immortal Sisters of the Sacred Flower Sect, Immortal Zi Hua, how could we not know her?”
