Chapter 74 Baptism of Plunder
"Well, these two torn pages didn't disappoint you, did they?"
Watching Qin Hao finish refining, Lei Jue asked with a light laugh.
"The contents of this fragment are truly terrifying; it is an immense opportunity for me," Qin Hao said solemnly.
"You were able to come here and activate the spiritual treasures I left behind. This is your destiny, and it is rightfully yours. After this matter is settled, do you still have any concerns?"
"My remaining soul still possesses some power; perhaps it can help you with some final tasks."
Faced with this question, Qin Hao pondered for a moment before asking, "Senior, I would like to ask if the Holy Spirit Baptism within Holy Spirit Mountain has already taken place?"
"Holy Baptism? What is that?" Lei Jue asked in confusion.
Qin Hao immediately explained, "It is a power that emerges here every once in a while after you, Senior, pass away here. It can baptize cultivators below the Supreme Realm and lay a Supreme foundation for them."
Rumor has it that even if one fails to reach the Supreme Third Rank, one can still save their life and have another chance to try.
It must be a unique opportunity formed by the power that dissipated at the time of your passing, transformed over the years.
"I see. Now that you say so, I know what it is."
With that, Lei Jue waved his hand, and a curtain of lightning slowly unfolded in front of the two of them.
What is shown behind the curtain is the central location of the Holy Spirit Mountains.
This place is currently filled with a large number of cultivators, a sea of people, and violent power is constantly rising into the sky, staging fierce battles.
In the center of this land stands a mountain peak.
A dazzling light shone in the sky above the mountain peak.
Upon closer inspection, what appeared to be a colossal cloud ladder was bathed in light.
The cloud ladder has nine levels, and each level has a different number of stone platforms. The higher the level, the fewer stone platforms there are.
There are dozens of stone platforms at the bottom of the stairs, but only a handful of five or six stone platforms remain at the top.
This is the Nine Heavens Ladder of Holy Spirit Mountain!
It is also the place sought by all the strong who enter Holy Spirit Mountain!
Only by climbing the steps and sitting on the stone platform can one receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit that everyone dreams of.
To climb the stairs, one must inevitably go through rounds of terrifying battles.
The fierce battle below is now taking place over the stone platform on these steps.
The number of stone platforms on the steps is limited, and to obtain a place on a stone platform, one must demonstrate sufficient strength. Only by being strong enough can one intimidate everyone and secure a place on these Nine Heavens Ladders.
At this moment, some figures were already standing on the Nine Heavens Ladder, and completely different scenes were presented on different steps.
The fighting continued on the lowest few steps, and the cultivators occupying the stone platforms were constantly changing.
One second they were occupying the stone platform, and the next second they might be knocked off by someone else; the battle was extremely fierce.
In comparison, the upper three levels of the Nine Heavens Ladder appear much calmer.
The number of stone platforms on the upper three levels is very small, and even when combined, they are not as numerous as the number on the first level of the ninth level.
On the second level of the stairs, seven figures stood guard, each wary of the other.
Without a doubt, these seven people are all top geniuses among the younger generation of the Northern Cang Realm. They would never be able to stand here without sufficient strength.
The most eye-catching figure was undoubtedly the one dressed in hemp clothing.
He stood with his hands behind his back. Although he did not unleash any spiritual power, he still exerted immense pressure on everyone present.
Mo Xingtian is currently the number one young person in the Northern Cang Continent.
Without Qin Hao's presence to suppress him, Mo Xingtian could be considered the number one among the younger generation of the Northern Cang Continent, and everyone looked at him with great fear.
Outside Mount Holy Spirit.
The leaders of countless powerful forces on the Northern Cang Continent stood in mid-air, their gazes all fixed on a spatial rift on Holy Spirit Mountain.
A huge spiritual energy screen floats here, reflecting the situation of the Nine Heavenly Ladders inside Holy Spirit Mountain.
Of course, the situation inside the light curtain only included the situation on the top three floors; the remaining battles were completely beyond the notice of these important figures.
Dean Taicang stood with his hands behind his back, watching the situation inside the light screen with an expressionless face.
The young prodigies of the Northern Cang Continent have all arrived here, but Qin Hao's absence makes him somewhat uneasy.
Although he had great faith in Qin Hao's abilities, he was still uneasy not seeing him officially appear here.
For this reason, the leaders of various factions around him began to look at him with different eyes.
Although these lights were very subtle, he still managed to detect them.
Especially the Black Dragon Supreme of the Dragon Demon Palace, whose mocking gaze was even more unrestrained.
"Taicang, the people from your Northern Cang Spiritual Academy this year are no good either. I'm afraid they'll die on Holy Spirit Mountain again, just like last time."
If I remember correctly, the last person to come here was also number one on your Heavenly Ranking, and this person is the same.
"Your number one on the Heavenly Ranking of the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy is truly a piece of trash."
Dean Taicang flicked his sleeve and said, "Black Dragon, don't be too happy yet. Have you already forgotten what happened to Mo Xingtian in the Holy Spirit Pavilion? If you have a bad memory, I don't mind reminding you."
"Heh, the current Demon Xingtian is not the Demon Xingtian of the Holy Spirit Pavilion. If your kid from the Northern Cang Spirit Academy were to encounter him, he would only be cut down by Demon Xingtian."
The Black Dragon Supreme sneered.
"Look, the baptism of the Holy Spirit has begun!"
Someone shouted, immediately drawing everyone's attention.
Within the light screen, Mo Xingtian had already ascended to the first level of the Nine Heavens Ladder, and golden raindrops began to fall, unleashing a grand holy baptism for everyone on the Nine Heavens Ladder.
Upon seeing this, the Black Dragon Supreme straightened his back, his face full of smugness.
Clearly, Mo Xingtian was very satisfied with the result of occupying the stone platform on the first floor to perform the Holy Spirit baptism.
But in the next second, a thunderous hand that blotted out the sky appeared above the Nine Heavens Ladder.
The golden raindrops that were originally falling as a baptism of the Holy Spirit all stopped in mid-air at this moment and stopped falling.
The next second, these golden raindrops began to return, returning to the sky and gathering in the palm of the giant thunder hand.
"What's going on? What's wrong with this year's Holy Spirit baptism? I've never seen anything like it before."
"What a terrifying aura! Who exactly is the owner of this giant thunder hand?"
At this moment, the expressions of the supreme beings outside Holy Spirit Mountain all became extremely solemn.
They all sensed it; the aura emanating from that giant thunder hand belonged to the Heavenly Sovereign!
The Supreme Being who passed away here!
An absurd idea suddenly arose in everyone's minds.
That Heavenly Sovereign is still alive?!
Within the light screen, the giant thunderous hand seized all the power of the Holy Spirit's baptism and then vanished before everyone's eyes.
The crowd, who were preparing to receive baptism from the Holy Spirit, were left staring at each other in bewilderment, completely unaware of what had happened.
Not only them, but also the supreme beings outside Holy Spirit Mountain felt extremely confused, completely unable to understand the strange changes that had occurred during this Holy Spirit baptism.
Only Dean Taicang looked at the giant thunderous hand with a thoughtful expression in his eyes, and a guess that he himself dared not believe appeared in his mind.
