Who let him join the Sword Sect?!-Chapter 493 - 303: Whose Ancestor Shall We Conquer Today

Chapter 493: Chapter 303: Whose Ancestor Shall We Conquer Today

"Don’t these people ever rest?"

It’s already past midnight, yet Qianji Town is still bustling with activity.

Zhang Ze didn’t head straight back to the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion, instead, he went to the west side of Qianji Town.

The Jade Book Tower is housed within the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion, but its entrance is located outside.

It has been integrated with the relocated entrance of the Underground City of the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion.

In the west of Qianji Town, Lily and her team have constructed a magnificent building that rivals Fried Shide in extravagance, resembling a bird’s nest stadium, surrounded by several structures in the style of the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion.

Lily gave it a surprisingly normal name: the Hall of Trials.

All the entrances are Teleportation Arrays, and walking inside feels like entering the instance hall of an online game.

The entire circular Hall of Trials is divided into three sections.

The first section is the Initial Tier novice experience in the Underground City of the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion, catering to young cultivators at the Foundation Establishment and Qi Cultivation Stage.

Guided by the automatically operating Thousand Mechanism Puppets and the cultivators of the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion on duty, the cultivators can take floating platforms and automatic stairs to reach any place.

After continuous optimization and adjustments, today’s Underground City no longer develops in pursuit of realism.

Instead, it strives to make these youngsters aware of the treachery of the human heart.

Stairs suddenly disappearing, below them is an Array that confines Spiritual Qi, falling into a cesspit, and facing a door that can’t be opened from this side.

Protected by a Golden Core Protective Array, toads spitting from heights, and ambushers suddenly appearing around corners to kick fiercely at kidneys...

The second section is the Jade Book Illusion Realm constructed inside the Jade Book Tower, focusing on historical battles and realism. Despite having anti-addiction measures and not being cheap, many cultivators still love it.

The third section is a large Teleportation Array leading to various cities of Cyan Thorn, and a fast passage directly to the Flying Ship docking area. After playing virtually, you can also play for real.

To ensure that cultivators always have a meaningful journey, the central service desk not only provides directions but also accepts and releases tasks.

Theoretically, if desired, some cultivators who are particularly addicted could achieve perpetuity here.

Cultivation, simulation, going out for trials to enhance strength, and making money along the way to return and continue spending at the Thousand Mechanism Pavilion...

Zhang Ze walked in, waved off five or six scammers selling strategies, and headed towards the second floor.

Then he stopped in front of that automatic staircase.

Although no matter whether looking with eyes or sitting with the butt, it looked no different from an elevator.

But because it is powered by Spiritual Qi, Lily insisted on calling it the Spirit Elevator.

And even had those two words printed out largely.

"Spirit Elevator ascending, no running or jumping allowed, violators will be buried alive."

After some thought, Zhang Ze stepped onto the Spirit Elevator.

Upon reaching the second floor, the soundproof barrier blocked out the noise from the first floor, replaced by the chatter of another group of people.

In the lounge area of the second-floor hall, Zhang Ze saw a group of cultivators judging a pig teammate.

"What’s wrong with you, kid!" A female cultivator with a big sister’s demeanor pointed a beast-tooth hammer at a small-sized cultivator.

"You always bragged about being an unbeatable divine thief, leaving no trace for thousands of miles. We went to raid the camp and draw the fire, and you go into the city to steal the book, so where’s the book?"

Within each layer of Illusion Realm, there are some random books hidden, but since each layer is based on a segment of history and then randomly cut in, every Illusion Realm experience is different.

Elder Wang, a lazy person who loves reading, didn’t want to search through the maps repeatedly by himself.

So, he issued the task of finding books as tasks for others to accomplish.

For many cultivators, this was a good side job.

The self-proclaimed divine thief had an expression filled with indescribable difficulty, but under the threat of the big hammer, he hesitantly started to defend himself.

"I... I actually got the book, but something went wrong when I was leaving."

"Speak! What went wrong!"

"It’s nothing much really, I’ll try harder next time..." As he faced further pressing, he closed his mouth again.

"Ahem." The female cultivator with the hammer coughed lightly and set the hammer down at the divine thief’s feet.

She didn’t smash it, because if the floor was damaged, she would have to pay for it.

As for why she knew about this, it was because she had already paid three times.

Under the tyranny of the big hammer, the divine thief told his teammates an embarrassing story.

The story wasn’t long; it was about a female spy of the Demon Race, and it was rather cliché.

The City Lord’s Mansion in chaos, a multi-faced spy meeting a naive divine thief by chance, the two of them escaping together, and as they parted, the naive boy was thoroughly taken advantage of...

"Xiaomei said the book was useful to her, so I gave it to her, after all, we were somewhat acquainted..."

Then, this brother nostalgically recounted the scene at the time, describing the beautiful figure of that black goat...

After listening, his companions looked at him as if he were an idiot.

"Dude, it’s all fake, can’t you have some team spirit!"

"No, brother, if you’re that kind-hearted, can you lend me some money, just lend it without expecting it back."

Faced with the criticism and mockery of his companions, the brother finally threw caution to the wind and said, "What do you guys know! Xiaomei said she likes me! She said I’m... a good person! She’s the first one to say this to me!"

Perhaps it was an illusion, but the moment he said this, there seemed to be a brief silence across the entire area of the second floor.

After such a declaration akin to the Declaration of Independence, his friends fell silent.

The female cultivator with the hammer sighed, patted this brother on the shoulder, "Don’t get in too deep, brother. Even if that Xiaomei really existed in history, she’d be old enough to be your ancestor."
