MEIWITA Chapter 965: Extra: Immortal World (Twenty-Two)

---

The Purgatory Arena was the largest underground dark force in the Immortal World. There were gambling battlefields and assassin organisations in each Immortal Realm.

The Purgatory Arena of Ling Su Immortal Realm was in the centre of the city. The gambling on battles was open to the public. If one wanted to watch it, they only needed to spend three hundred low-quality celestial stones to ten-thousand low-quality celestial stones to enter.

Of course, those paying three hundred low-quality celestial stones would definitely have the worst viewing position, while those paying three thousand low-quality celestial stones and above could choose private rooms, but the level and location were different.

While if one participated in the gambling matches, the entrance fee would be waived.

Lou Mu Lan was the Young Palace Master of Su Immoral Palace, and he held a distinguished guest order for the gambling arena. He took Lou Mu Yan two directly to the highest level specialised private room.

There was a floor-to-ceiling transparent spar wall in the private room. All scenes outside could be viewed from inside, but people outside couldn’t see the existence of this wall. At the same time, it also blocked out the probing of all mental energy and divine consciousness.

Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu entered the private room and looked down.

The space below was very large, with six gambling battlefields set up. On each gambling platform, there were two cultivators fighting with skills or hand-to-hand combat. The surroundings were filled with people watching and shouts never stopped.

There was also a special gambling table set up in the gambling battlefield, and everyone watching the gambling battles could place bets on the table on the two people to determine the outcome.

The atmosphere on the gambling battlefield was tense, with winners cheering and shouting, and losers cursing with dark expressions. There was no so-called justice and rules here, only life or death, losing and wining.

Lou Mu Yan looked around, and when her eyes fell on the last platform, she exclaimed: “Isn’t that Yan Shuang?”

Yan Shuang was also an ascended cultivator from the lower interface. She joined them on Peng Ying Outer Island more than three years ago.

During this period, Yan Shuang would come to them for sparring from time to time, and their relationship gradually improved.

Yan Shuang looked bright and flamboyant, but had a cold and belligerent temperament, and could even be considered a bit violent once she got into a fight.

However, although she was belligerent and violent, she wouldn’t kill innocent people indiscriminately. This was mainly related to cultivating the way of slaughter.

However, in terms of the path of the slaughter and violence, although Yan Shuang had broken through to Immortal and ascended to the upper interface, but her temperament was much inferior to Lou Mu Bai.

Lou Mu Bai, be it in entering the Path through slaughter or having a Slaughter’s Constitution, his cold nature had never changed, nor had the Slaughter’s force affected his original heart.

Ming Xiu watched Yan Shuang defeat her opponent and said: “She’s improved very quickly in the past two years. Her cultivation base has also advanced to Intermediate Immortal. She must have encountered some kind of fortuitous opportunity.”

He and Lou Mu Yan had spent the last few years mainly on transforming into celestial energy and cultivation, while Yan Shuang spend most of her time on the gambling battlefield where she lost and won.

“I heard that she joined a team to a life-or-death ancient secret realm before. She must have obtained a fortuitous opportunity in that secret realm.” Lou Mu Yan nodded.

“It wasn’t an easy win for her this time. If it weren’t for that last killing momentum, the outcome of the battle would’ve been reversed.” Lou Mu Lan was much stronger than Yan Shuang and the person she was fighting in terms of cultivation base and strength, and could understand the situation of the battle clearly with a look.

Ming Xiu also noticed the same problem, “She also signed up for the Purgatory Conference. If she’s lucky, she may be able to survive a hundred matches, but if she isn’t lucky, her avatar will definitely perish.”

“She must have some trump cards to participate in the Purgatory Conference. I hope she can succeed in the hundred matches.” Lou Mu Yan still had a good impression of Yan Shuang.

“Mu Yan, during the next two months, in your free time after cultivating, you can come and watch to understand the rules and methods of the competition, but don’t go trying it.” Lou Mu Yan thought for a bit and said.

Lou Mu Yan blinked and asked: “Why?”

She was even planning to take Ming Xiu to play a few matches tomorrow to get acquainted.

“Recently, all the large and small forces in Ling Su Immortal Realm have been paying attention to the gambling battlefield. The information agency even specially sent two powerful men at Great Honoured Venerable to station at the gambling battlefield to dig out news about new potential cultivators.”

Lou Mu Lan paused, then said: “You and Ming Xiu have great strength and potential. If the first-hand information they discovered was released, many opponents would be wary of you when the tournament begins, and even look for your weaknesses to act. The losses outweigh the gains.”

After listening to what he said, Lou Mu Yan nodded: “Alright, Ming Xiu and I won’t participate in the gambling matches.”

What Lou Mu Lan said wasn’t unreasonable. She and Ming Xiu weren’t so blindly confident that they could win a hundred matches for certain. After all, there were so many talented people in the Immortal World, and they weren’t invincible.

If their opponents found out and researched their strengths and patterns, it’d definitely cause some trouble for them.

“Mm, I’m going to be in seclusion for the next two months. If you need anything, just send me a message, or go find Ancestor Grandpa.” Lou Mu Lan said with a smile.

The Great Immortal Venerable Ling Su was relatively kind to Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu. He openly acknowledged Lou Mu Yan’s direct bloodline and her junior relationship. If something happened, he wouldn’t stay out of it.

“Sure!”

Before the Purgatory Conference, Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu spent their time perfecting their skills and watching the gambling battles.

As the Purgatory Conference approached, more and more people were participating in the gambling battles, all wanting to experience this type of battle in order to prepare for the Conference. However, many people also kept a few tricks up their sleeves, and no one used their trump cards to participate in the battles.

During this period of time, the relationship between Lou Mu Yan two and Great Immortal Venerable Ling Su grew better and better. The other party would take time to give them guidance every few days, which benefitted them a lot and they made rapid progress.

After the two were given guidance, they even came across some of the enlightenment of an Honoured Venerable, which greatly surprised Great Immortal Venerable Ling Su, and he had to sigh that the two’s talents were truly abnormally perverted and heaven-defying.

Soon, the Purgatory Conference came as scheduled, and those who signed up were divided into twenty groups by the person in charge of the Purgatory Arena, and lots were drawn to determine the orders of the battles.

The rules of the Purgatory Conference were that the people who drew lots in the top twenty would go to the ring to accept the challenges of the people with the serial numbers towards the end. As long as they successfully win one hundred rounds, defending their ring, they would be qualified to enter Xuan Tian Immortal Realm’s final challenge.

If the person defending the ring loses, then the winner continues to defend the ring, and they would also need to win a hundred matches.

Before the arena competition, Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu also drew lots, and neither of them ranked in the top twenty, ranking in the middle.

As soon as the Purgatory Conference began, many people from Ling Su Immortal Realm, including family members and wandering cultivators, came to compete or watch, and it was very lively.

Time passed day by day, and a month later, except for two people in the twenty groups who were the first to defend the rings, the others had all taken a turn.

Lou Mu Yan and Ming Xiu’s serial numbers were close, and they were also even numbers, so they couldn’t be opponents.

The two participated in the gambling battles one after another, and the start was very smooth. They basically won the title of king of defence in the ring without revealing any of their trump cards or using their unique skill.

In the ring matches one after another, the two of them also encountered strong opponents, but they managed to defend and pass one by one.

During the defence, neither of them used their own unique skill, and it took them a month to complete a one-hundred match winning streak.
