Chapter 58: The Gathering of Heroes, the Prelude to the Capital’s Dao Conference
“The System is now repairing.”
[Repair damage 367]
[Repair damage 475]
Gu Xi had used two consecutive repair opportunities to repair so little. With such few points, it would take a long time before he could completely repair it.
[Due to the special nature of this item, as the host’s ability increases, the number of repair points will also increase.]
Gu Xi could not help but sigh. He might as well start with the Child Cauldron first. Perhaps he would have a chance to obtain it. Perhaps by then, it would be easier to repair it.
Gu Xi was eager to research the secret of the Child and Mother Cauldron. He had been studying it for a few days, and soon it was time for the Capital Dao Conference.
The huge conference hall was filled with powers from all directions. Even the most spacious places would seem crowded. Fortunately, the Capital was vast. Otherwise, it would be quite difficult for so many people to suddenly pour in.
Almost all of the sects and powers that were currently in the limelight in the Capital had arrived. After all, this was their local territory, so they could not lose to the others outside. Other than that, more than half of the famous sects in the major cities had also arrived.
It could be said that a group of heroes had gathered. Any person they picked up and stomped their feet was an existence that could cause quite a stir.
Although not all of the sects were qualified to participate, there was no lack of people or powers that had received the news and liked to watch the show.
“This year’s Capital Dao conference seems to have more people than in previous years.”
“That’s right. Those reclusive sects have all come out in the past. I heard that they originally didn’t plan to participate.”
“They were all attracted by the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce’s auction of that Flawless quality pill. Even the Alchemy Emperor appeared this year.”
“That pill was also obtained by the Alchemy Emperor in the end. It’s said that it was exchanged with an item.”
“What! There’s actually such a good thing? Such a precious and precious pill was actually exchanged with an item. Is that person crazy?”
“Even the people of the Demon Region have come out. Do you know that Demoness Mei Qianmeng? If it wasn’t for the Alchemy Emperor being present at the time, I’m afraid she would have made a move to snatch it!”
Although the people of the Demon Region respectfully called Mei Qianmeng the Saintess, most of the people who loathed the Demon Region called them devils, and Mei Qianmeng was naturally no exception.
“No way. The people of the Demon Region would have such courage. This is the Capital, and there are so many sects here. Could it be that they want to provoke a conflict between the Demon Region and the cultivation world?”
“Those lunatics of the Demon Region must be used to doing as they please. They can do anything, can’t they?”
Even though it had been some time since the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce’s auction, there were still quite a few people discussing the matter at that time. The heat of this matter had always been high.
For the Capital’s Dao Conference Competition, the people of the capital had specially established an Elder Council to be in charge of the competition’s matters. These people are elders of the super large sects who were highly respected. Thus, the possibility of favoritism was eliminated.
After all, even if you had a relationship with one of them, you could not have a relationship with all the elders. Bribing them was impossible. Moreover, the judges were all super powerful figures. They guaranteed absolute fairness, preventing any backdoors or bribery of judges.
The Capital Dao Competition could be said to be absolutely fair and strict. Otherwise, it would not have attracted so many people to participate. However, its main purpose was to make it easier for everyone to communicate, it was to provide a convenient platform for all the cultivators in the world.
After all, even if you could not participate in the competition, you would still gain experience from it. If you could receive the guidance of a super powerhouse, it could be said to be a meteoric rise.
The Supreme Purity Sect’s team was at the back of the crowd. Their position could be said to be very bad. After all, they were not in the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce. With Fan Baohua opening a backdoor for them, they were all ranked according to their strength.
The more powerful the sect was, the more likely they were to win. For a sect like theirs, it would be impossible for them to stand out among so many powerful sects, let alone win.
Everyone was satisfied to have a good ranking, but even so, it was difficult to climb to the sky.
Last time, there was the Dao Conference in the Capital, and the Supreme Purity Sect had been selected in the primary selection. It was not easy for a few people to pass the five trials and kill six generals, but they still could not enter the finals.
“With Senior Brother Leng here this time, according to his talent and strength, he will definitely be able to enter the finals of the Dao of the Sword.”
“If you ask me, Senior Brother Gu’s chances of winning are still higher. After all, he...”
The disciples of the Supreme Purity Sect immediately revealed a look of understanding. It could be said that Gu Xi was their greatest trump card this time.
In the face of the discussions of the crowd, Gu Xi was actually quite calm. In any case, regardless of whether he could obtain a good ranking or not, just that Mother and Son Cauldron alone was enough for him to make this trip worthwhile.
He did not know if he would be able to collect any other rare treasures.
A cauldron like the Mother and Son Cauldron could be said to be something that could only be found by chance. After all, back then in the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce, there were so many people who offered rare treasures to exchange with Gu Xi, but he was not interested in many of them.
The bell in Mei Qianmeng’s hand, Gu Xi was a little interested. He could tell that it was also an extraordinary item, but Mei Qianmeng was too dangerous.
If he were to interact with her, he might easily be targeted by the Demon Region behind her. At that time, he would lose a lot. It would not be worth it.
Just as Gu Xi was thinking, the Capital Dao Conference had already begun.
Buzz–
Accompanied by the faint sound of the bell, it was as if the sound of the Great Dao was filling his ears. An old man stepped onto the stage, his body emitting a powerful aura.
“The Capital Dao Conference will begin. The first match will be the Dao of Alchemy!”
