Chapter 1424 A sheet that’s soon to be greatly sought after

Profound Sage Tyrannical Song, who was 18 years old, was also pulled into the fighting s.p.a.ce.

“Eh? Senior Song was also pulled in?” Soft Feather said in surprise.

The sheet beside her also entered the s.p.a.ce with Senior Tyrannical Song. This sheet of cloth was the one she had bought from Senior Almighty Merchant-right before Song Shuhang was pulled over, he accidentally reached out to grab it and ended up bringing it with him.

Senior White said, “Shuhang has been transferred into the fighting s.p.a.ce.”

It was a spatial mechanism that a Ninth Stage Tribulation Immortal had set up, and it was paired with the crystal pillar that identified the age of a cultivator. After the crystal pillar determined one’s age, everyone that it had identified to be below 20 years of age would be pulled into the fighting s.p.a.ce. As it had been something made by a Tribulation Transcender, it should be impossible for any mistakes to occur in the process. That was, of course, unless another Tribulation Transcender stepped in and messed with it.

Even if n.o.body in the entire Immortal Feast believed that Profound Sage Tyrannical Song was only 18 years old… it was a fact that he was only 18 years old.

Soft Feather’s eyes immediately s.h.i.+fted to the projected screen that showed the fighting s.p.a.ce.

What will Senior Song do inside the fighting s.p.a.ce? Is he going to choose to bully the kids at the Second Stage?

Or is he going to go with a more interesting choice?

Inside the fighting s.p.a.ce.

Everyone under the age of 20 had been pulled into the fighting s.p.a.ce without warning, causing the area to fall into chaos. The chaos brought about messy fights.

Some people subconsciously attacked, some defended, some shrank into a ball, some screamed, and some were beaten black and blue.

In a mere five seconds, more than half of the young cultivators who were brought inside the fighting s.p.a.ce were ejected.

Most of those who had been ejected were First Stage pract.i.tioners.

This (eject] function was a protection mechanism.

Before the free-for-all in the fighting s.p.a.ce began, a defensive rune had been attached to every partic.i.p.ant. This defensive rune would form a Second Stage defense in the pract.i.tioner’s body.

When this Second Stage defense was broken, the partic.i.p.ant would automatically lose their qualification to continue inside the fighting s.p.a.ce.

At the same time, as soon as they lose their qualification, they would be sent out of the fighting s.p.a.ce.

This ensured that the young pract.i.tioners who were pulled into the s.p.a.ce would not suffer any fatal and serious injuries.

The main reason this defense mechanism was kept hidden inside the pract.i.tioners’ bodies was to ensure the fairness of the free-for-all as much as possible.

The guests of the Immortal Feast came from all over the universe, and many of them followed the path of cultivating one’s body, which led to them having a stronger physique and a shocking defense. Their body’s defensive prowess was most likely above that of the Second Stage defensive rune. After a large number of low-level pract.i.tioners were sent out, the fighting s.p.a.ce became empty, and the chaos had ended. Loli s.h.i.+ took a defensive posture and stepped back vigilantly. Her strength was at the beginner-level of the Second Stage Realm, and among the pract.i.tioners in this free-for-all, she was at the lower-middle in terms of strength.

If it were not for her luck, she would have been sent out in the first wave.

s.h.i.+ inwardly told herself, Although I know that I won’t be able to win this free-for-all, I don’t want to be kicked out that early.

In the previous stage matches, she hadn’t been able to perform properly.

Therefore, she wanted to test her secret technique during this free-for-all!

s.h.i.+’s mental power surged to its limits, and she used a secret technique to sense the actions of other pract.i.tioners around her while retreating. While she was retreating, she suddenly b.u.mped into someone with her leg.

Not good, I’m getting ambushed from behind!

s.h.i.+ was startled-the other party was able to avoid her senses completely and hide behind her without being noticed. This could only mean that the other party’s strength far surpa.s.sed hers!

s.h.i.+ was unwilling, but she did not give up. Without even looking behind her, she swept her leg backward.

At this time, a large hand gently grabbed her calf.

The power in that hand was so great that s.h.i.+ could not resist at all. However, the strange thing was that the force of this hand was very gentle, and it appeared to have no intent to hurt her.

s.h.i.+ turned her head curiously and looked behind her.

At this moment, she saw a dark man squatting behind her. The man was wearing a seemingly ordinary sheet…

It was precisely because of this strange sheet that the man did not have any sense of existence.

This sheet is a magical treasure!

Did the other party use this magic treasure to hide their aura and get close to me?

Song Shuhang softly said, “Little s.h.i.+, don’t be nervous, it’s me.” While he said this, he loosened his grip on s.h.i.+’s leg and pulled her in front of him.

He had also been confused when he was pulled into the fighting s.p.a.ce.

Previously, he had been thinking about whether or not he should join the free-for-all for those under 20 and bully the young ones who were at the Second Stage. However, when he really did get pulled into the fighting s.p.a.ce, he suddenly lost interest.

With his Fifth Stage strength, the pressure from his golden core alone would cause all of the Second Stage pract.i.tioners to fall to the ground.

As such, Song Shuhang silently covered himself with the sheet that he had grabbed from Soft Feather.

This sheet bought from the Almighty Merchant had the ability to hide one’s aura. Song Shuhang, who was already half-invisible, had his existence suddenly weakened to the extreme.

Ever since the beginning of this free-for-all, n.o.body noticed him. He silently sat in the middle of the crowd, watching the chaotic battles of the pract.i.tioners around him.

In the entire free-for-all s.p.a.ce, only Loli s.h.i.+ seemed to be fated to meet him as she accidentally hit him while retreating.

“Demon Sage T-Tyrannical Scholar!” Fear emerged in s.h.i.+’s eyes.

Why is Demon Sage Tyrannical Scholar here?

Isn’t this supposed to be a free-for-all for those under 20?

“Hush.” Song Shuhang raised his eyebrows.

s.h.i.+ immediately covered her mouth, afraid to speak.

Song Shuhang sighed, and said, “Ahem. I didn’t mean to affect your performance in the previous match. I only wanted to cheer you on.”

s.h.i.+ frowned, and tentatively asked, “Senior, did we know each other in the past?”

Song Shuhang sighed. “This is getting tiring… Anyway, we did know each other before. However, I’m in a strange state right now, so you can’t remember me. We were good friends.”

“We were friends?” s.h.i.+ blinked.

The first Sage in a thousand years… was friends with her?

It sounded amazing.

“Right, s.h.i.+, do you want to win?” Song Shuhang suddenly said. “I caused your performance to fall off in the previous matches, so do you want me to lend you a hand during this free-for-all?”

After thinking for a while, Loli s.h.i.+ said, “I want to win, but I want to win using my own strength. I don’t want to cheat by getting external help.”

“You’ve got backbone. Alright then, I won’t take the initiative to help you,” Song Shuhang said while opening the sheet slightly. “Come in. This sheet is big enough to cover the two of us.”

s.h.i.+ looked puzzled. Song Shuhang said, “The sandpiper and the clam fight, and the fisherman profits in the end. Do you know of this story?”

s.h.i.+ nodded.

Song Shuhang said, “This free-for-all compares not only strength, but also wisdom. For example, if you look over to the right, you can see those three pract.i.tioners at the Dragon Gate Realm uniting against that Yan girl from the Beast Realm. They’re doing this because they know that Yan is stronger than anyone else in this s.p.a.ce. If they don’t defeat her first, the victory will be in her pocket. As such, they joined forces in order to send her out.”

s.h.i.+ responded, “So?”

Song Shuhang seriously said, “So, now that you’ve found a place where you can hide, you should preserve your strength. Then, when the free-for-all is nearing its end, you can come out again and try to claim victory. It’s a pretty good strategy, isn’t it?”

s.h.i.+ said, “Senior has a good point.”

In a free-for-all, hiding first is also a strategy…

While thinking about this, s.h.i.+ nodded. She slipped underneath Song Shuhang’s sheet. Then, with only their heads exposed, they watched the ongoing fights around them.

This sheet was truly magical.

After putting on the sheet, pract.i.tioners at the Second Stage Realm couldn’t notice the two of them.

It was as if there were two separate worlds, one inside the sheet and the other outside.

No matter how fierce the fights were getting outside, it did not affect Song Shuhang and s.h.i.+, who were wrapped in the sheet.

The scene in the fighting s.p.a.ce was naturally projected inside the Immortal Feast’s venue.

But the pract.i.tioners in the venue would all ignore Song Shuhang and s.h.i.+, focusing on the other pract.i.tioners inside the fighting s.p.a.ce.

Fairy Lychee discovered that s.h.i.+ had yet to be ejected from the s.p.a.ce, and so began searching for where she might be. She and a senior sister of her sect searched for a long time before they found her.

Fairy Lychee and the others could only see s.h.i.+ wrapped in the sheet, and they subconsciously ignored Song Shuhang, who was with her.

Fairy Lychee curiously asked, “Is that sheet a magical treasure? When did s.h.i.+ get such a

sheet?”

Soft Feather raised his hand, and said, “This is the magical treasure that I bought some time ago. It has the effect of hiding a pract.i.tioner’s aura and weakening their existence.”

The invisible scholar sighed faintly. “What kind of horrible function is that?”

“Fairy Soft Wood, why is your magical treasure on s.h.i.+’s body?” Fairy Lychee asked in confusion.

Soft Feather replied, “Because Senior Song brought it in.” While saying that, she brought out her own notebook and recorded another daoist name.

This state was really interesting. Over a cup of tea and some cold dishes, the seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group had already given her several daoist names.

Among these daoist names, there were good-sounding ones and some ordinary ones. For now, she planned on writing them all down first. Who knew, maybe she could use them in the future?

In addition, Senior Song didn’t choose to bully the Second Stage pract.i.tioners.

Senior Song’s personality really hadn’t changed.

This was the Senior Song that she knew!

Inside the free-for-all s.p.a.ce.

Yan, the strongest in the s.p.a.ce, had quickly been sent out by a group of people. After getting sent out, she looked depressed, and her cheeks inflated like buns.

The other pract.i.tioners in the free-for-all s.p.a.ce started forming groups, having in-fighting, and then forming new groups.

Song Shuhang and Loli s.h.i.+ watched everything with relish.

Finally, the chaotic situation ended.

The one who had the last laugh was a thin but tall young man.

Song Shuhang smiled, and said, “Heh~ What a coincidence. Someone from the Limitless Demon Sect?”

Long time no see!
