Chapter 1419: Chapter 1089: Black Wind Martial Arts First Tournament! Western White Tiger Seven Stars

The progression task secretly orchestrated by Jiang Dali and jointly issued by the higher-ups of Black Wind Village and Divine Iron City is essentially a large-scale martial arts tournament encompassing all Eight Desolates disciples, as well as Black Wind Village and Divine Iron City.

In reality, as the Mixed Martial Arts World has developed to this point, similar martial arts tournaments led by sects or organized by officials have been held frequently. At one time, Jiang Dali even set up the martial arts stage at the entrance of the Shaolin Shaoshi Mountain, creating an unprecedented grand spectacle.

And now, the ”Black Wind Martial Arts First Tournament,” jointly hosted by Black Wind Village and Divine Iron City, has immediately sparked a significant reaction because it caters to the tens of thousands of Eight Desolates disciples and Black Wind Village players who completed the first stage of the task.

Before this, apart from the Kunlun Sword Discussion and the martial challenges at Shaolin Shaoshi Mountain, which attracted tens of thousands of players, no martial arts tournament involving tens of thousands of players had ever been held.

Hence, when tens of thousands of Eight Desolates disciples and Black Wind Village players received this second-stage progression task, there was an immediate uproar, with excited discussions erupting on the Jianghu Forum.

A large number of players who failed to complete the first-stage progression task were remorsefully beating their chests.

”Ah, ah, ah! If I had known the progression task was this thrilling, I would have worked my butt off to mine 300 pounds of ore, but now I don’t even have the qualification to participate.”

”Yeah, who would have thought the progression task wasn’t some extremely difficult task but such a big perk? Just participating in the martial arts, regardless of how many wins or losses, you can get guaranteed rewards like Silver Tael and contribution points. Learning to enhance your Martial Arts even enjoys a limited-time 20% discount. It’s such a loss, a huge loss.”

”The 20% discount is just the basic offer, okay! Just by winning one match, you can get a 30% discount, winning three matches gets you a 40% discount, and dropping out in the group stage gives more discounts. If you can advance into the Black Wind Village main village competition, you might even enjoy the highest 70% discount. This can save a massive amount of Cultivation Points and Potential Points.”

”Black Wind Village has no martial virtue! They made a sneak attack! I thought the progression task was some high-difficulty task, and I had already spent my Cultivation Points enhancing Martial Arts. It’s so not worth it.”

”Hahaha! Glad I saved my Cultivation Points without enhancing Martial Arts. Finally, a wave of perks is here. Earning Cultivation Points and Potential Points in my own sect, then going to Black Wind Village to enhance Martial Arts, this is what they call reaping the Black Wind Village’s crops, hahaha.”

”By the way, didn’t you find it strange? This time, the progression task wasn’t issued by our village chief, but by the City Lord of Divine Iron City, Liao Rushen, and several high-level NPCs in our village. This is unprecedented, could it be that the village chief is really in trouble?”

As the news of the Black Wind Martial Arts First Tournament was announced, the heat about this matter on the Jianghu Forum immediately soared.

Many players without the qualification to participate in the martial arts tournament were envious and jealous, but also secretly puzzled why the task was not issued by the Black Wind Village Chief, speculating about the Black Wind Village Chief’s current situation.

Jiang Dali watched the developments on the Jianghu Forum with clear insight.

The different reactions of players at this time were all anticipated by him.

He only authorized Liao Rushen and others to release the second-stage progression task at this time, although it was delayed significantly, causing a lot of crops to spill into outsiders’ fields, it was a helpless remedy, better than gaining no benefits at all.

Originally, he planned to officially continue the second-stage progression task after the Savior Task concluded, completing a perfect harvest.

But it was delayed due to an unexpected death in the World Association battle.

Earlier, he didn’t start the task during his closed-door recovery because he didn’t want to reveal any information about himself to the players.

Because once he releases a new progression task, players would naturally know he’s alive and well, and the news would spread quickly, affecting his subsequent plans.

Now, after coming out of closed-door training, he issued the progression task as a faction task, writing to Liao Rushen and key figures like Cangling Master within Black Wind Village, instructing them to jointly issue the progression task in their names.

In this way, he wouldn’t expose his information to the players, only letting Liao Rushen and others know he’s alive.

The delay in issuing the progression task may have caused many players who gained a lot from the Savior Task to spend their Cultivation Points and Potential Points on their sects.

But now, through his meticulously designed martial arts tournament, it would naturally stimulate the crops to flow back, rushing in with an urgent posture of not wanting to miss out, allowing him to harvest a massive amount of Cultivation Points and Potential Points to make up for the losses.

Jiang Dali estimates that, given players’ typical behavior, nearly 300,000 players scattered across more than 40 sub branches in Black Wind Village and Divine Iron City to participate in regional competitions, with absolutely 90% of the players not missing this discount benefit, consequently contributing a massive amount of Cultivation Points and Potential Points.

The discounts he offered were only accessible to players who were strong enough to earn lower discounts.

But generally, the stronger the player, the higher the Martial Arts level they learn and enhance, and the more they spend. Even after discounts, the Cultivation Points and Potential Points they provide are still considerable.

Therefore, after this tournament concludes, he might harvest at least 20-30 million Cultivation Points and Potential Points, fully enough to support his advancement in several sub realms and Martial Arts Realms in the Returning Essence Realm, further enriching the Primordial Spirit strength, True Qi, Qi-Blood, and other amounts, significantly boosting his strength.

”The Cultivation Points and Potential Points contributed by tens of thousands of players will keep coming in over a month with the tournament’s progress, just thinking about it is very exciting.”

Jiang Dali, in high spirits, has now arrived near the military camp sealing Leifeng Tower.

Outside the camp, shadows of people can be seen, with many soldiers patrolling.

He didn’t want to alert anyone, so he leaped silently onto the treetop in a secluded corner, using Sky Dragon Seven Steps to traverse more than ten feet in distance, flying over shadowy trees, and headed for the half-reconstructed Leifeng Tower on the mountain.

His figure still in the air, he spun and used the technique of ”Return Flying Skill,” flying back to land on a forest path, cleverly avoiding a patrol team of Black Wind Village mountain bandits.

As for the defensive patrol layout around Leifeng Tower, he naturally knew it inside and out. The strict defenses that even mosquitoes couldn’t get through for ordinary Martial Arts experts were no more than an illusion to him.

Even relying on Primordial Spirit Power, he could easily deceive others and walk right in, but that would truly be making a mountain out of a molehill.

After bypassing two patrols of mountain bandits, Jiang Dali silently infiltrated the under-construction Leifeng Tower.

Once here, even he had to slightly use Primordial Spirit Power to beguile minds, so as to open mechanisms and enter the base of Leifeng Tower unnoticed.

Hoo! ——

Under Leifeng Tower, there lay a space even wider than the exterior, and upon the moment of descent, one could instantly feel intense heat and Evil Qi from below, as if a volcano was fiercely burning beneath.

”Roar!!”

Sensing the wind above, a violent and wary beastly roar suddenly erupted, the overwhelming soundwaves accompanied by heat rippling outward.

Boom! ——

A gigantic red fireball suddenly surged up, appearing before Jiang Dali.

From within the flames, there emerged a massive majestic lion head and lantern-like giant eyes, which, upon making out Jiang Dali’s figure, hurriedly shut its mouth, its fangs clashing together and sparking.

”Haha! Dog, long time no see!”

Jiang Dali laughed loudly, his whole body flashing with Golden Light as he invaded the blazing flames, his large hands grabbing onto the pair of antlers atop the Qilin’s head, mounting in one leap.

”Let’s go! Let’s take a tour below!”

”Roar!”

The Fire Qilin, upset yet helpless, placed its four hooves on the wall, suddenly exerted strength with its robust limbs, transforming into a large fireball carrying Jiang Dali downwards, like a joyous fireball bouncing around, entering one of the seventy-two passageways below as Jiang Dali wished, rushing swiftly into the distance.

Back at the World Association battle, Jiang Dali had thought of summoning Demon Dragon and Fire Qilin to assist.

Yet at that time, the idea was beautiful, but reality was that these two beasts lacked training, making it difficult to traverse thousands of miles precisely.

Thus the idea went to waste, and the Fire Qilin, a fierce beast only Jiang Dali could tame, stayed guarding the base of Leifeng Tower after being sealed, until today.

Now, Jiang Dali rode atop the Fire Qilin once more, his legs clamped around the muscular beast, feeling its surging fiery power and vigorous internal force, and his mood was exuberant and exceptionally joyous, his disordered long golden hair flying amidst the flames, with a longing to shout loudly.

For any fierce man, taming a beast as mighty as the Fire Qilin is undoubtedly highly gratifying, representing a powerful force of control.

His mind involuntarily flashed a scene of a star map, the star map being the mysterious star map inside Jingyan Palace.

As the scene closed in, an image resembling a dragon flying through the starry sky appeared in his mind.

It was the Western White Tiger Seven Stars: Kui, Lou, Wei, Mao, Bi, Zi, Shen, forming a white constellation stretching across the sky in the northern Heavenly Vault, with Kui Star shining fiercely.

In an instant, Jiang Dali felt himself in a profound and bewildering state, his True Qi circulating naturally, and Primordial Spirit Power surging like golden water.

The star map suddenly transformed into an illustration, in which there appeared a War God wearing strange armor and a mask, riding a creature neither dragon nor beast, flying down from nine split thick clouds.

The insights from War God Chronicles 45: Divine Power flooded his mind, causing his robust, muscular, strong body to abruptly erupt with a formidable terrifying momentum, as if a god overlooking all beings, emitting an unbeatable aggressive aura.

”Huh—”

A woman’s gentle voice of surprise echoed from a deep corridor, with a tone of astonishment and a touch of admiration.

Jiang Dali’s eyes suddenly opened, naturally exuding a commanding dignity that made one bow, with cold and unfeeling divine eyes sweeping towards the rock wall on the side, as if penetrating the stone, exuding a majestic divine momentum pressing towards the woman beyond layers of corridors.

The woman, though surprised, remained calm even in astonishment, her eyes emitting a strange light bursting with boundless power.

Two types of power released through their gaze, yet combined with momentum and spiritual will from various aspects.

Suddenly they clashed together, exploding in an unseen horrible wave, causing even the Fire Qilin to suddenly roar in fear, its four legs landing on the ground, its flames recoiling under the pressure of unseen momentum, its lantern-like eyes fearfully looking towards the white shadow appearing in the opposite corridor...
