In the grand hall, the other eight individuals were all staring at Ji Wuchang with solemn expressions, completely awestruck by his ghost-like speed. They no longer dared to regard Ji Wuchang as someone at the Soul Division realm but treated him as an equal in their own realm.

Jia Yi glanced at the eight of them, a faint sneer playing on his lips. Did they really think that was Ji Wuchang's true speed? They were sorely mistaken. Assassins from the Gu Xuan Pavilion underwent rigorous speed training, and each one of them was fast. Yet, all of them had fallen into Ji Wuchang's hands! As for Ji Wuchang's speed limit, Jia Yi didn't know, but he was certain that he himself could never keep up.

At that moment, Zhou Guangrong returned to the hall with a smile. Having just seen off Li Chongshan, he was in high spirits.

"Everyone, we will set off tomorrow to the location of the Hundred Cities Battle. I can tell you in advance that the location is Chasing Star Mountain!" Zhou Guangrong announced directly upon his return, revealing the venue for the Hundred Cities Battle.

Upon hearing the name 'Chasing Star Mountain,' many people's expressions changed slightly, clearly aware of the place.

"By the way, I have some bad news to share. This time, not just one hundred cities will participate in the battle at Chasing Star Mountain, but two hundred!" Zhou Guangrong continued. "Chasing Star Mountain is vast, which means that besides competing with the other ninety-nine cities, you might also encounter people from another hundred cities!"

"Once you reach Chasing Star Mountain, the ten of you will form a team. To survive, it's best to cooperate with each other! Of course, you might quickly get separated, so I suggest you pair up in twos to look out for each other!"

"That's all I can tell you. The rest depends on your own fate. Go back and rest now. We'll set off early tomorrow morning, and we should arrive at Chasing Star Mountain in about three days!" After finishing his speech, Zhou Guangrong waved his hand, dismissing everyone.

Ji Wuchang's gaze swept across the crowd, and he noticed a woman scrutinizing him with a curious expression. He felt a bit puzzled; he didn't recognize this woman and wondered why she was looking at him. Ji Wuchang didn't know that this woman was the one Zhou Guangrong had suggested he challenge earlier. However, due to Li Chongshan's arrival, all plans had been disrupted.

Zhou Guangrong didn't ask Ji Wuchang about opening the Star Vein or mention the Seven Star Pill. Since Zhou Guangrong didn't bring it up, Ji Wuchang didn't either. He harbored deep suspicion towards Zhou Guangrong, who had poisoned the Seven Star Pill with a bone-deep toxin, clearly plotting against him. Ji Wuchang didn't believe that Zhou Guangrong had no other schemes; he just hadn't revealed them yet. The things Zhou Guangrong had mentioned earlier were certainly not his true intentions.

Ji Wuchang wasn't in a hurry; he had the patience to wait. Returning to his room, Ji Wuchang suddenly heard Ji Yaoyao's voice in his ear.

"Ji Wuchang, I've succeeded! Refining this Supreme Corpse has exhausted me recently!" Ji Yaoyao exclaimed. "I now need three things. Keep an eye out for them; they are crucial for my revival!"

Upon hearing Ji Yaoyao's voice, Ji Wuchang quickly asked, "Yaoyao, what are the three things?"

"Heavenly Extremity Lingzhi, Five Treasures Blood, and Heavenly Dragon Mystic Lotus!" Ji Yaoyao listed. "Among these, the most precious is the Five Treasures Blood. Focus on that first; I'm not sure if you'll even come across it. As for the Heavenly Extremity Lingzhi and Heavenly Dragon Mystic Lotus, you might find them at large auctions. If you encounter any of these three, no matter the cost in spirit stones, find a way to acquire them!"

Ji Wuchang's heart tightened upon hearing this. Just the names of these items suggested their extreme rarity, and he hadn't heard of any of them before. However, he made sure to remember Ji Yaoyao's words.

"Don't rush too much. My soul power has only recovered about seventy percent. It will take at least a few more years to fully recover, so you have plenty of time," Ji Yaoyao continued. "Of course, if I were to exert my full power now, as long as you don't encounter a Supreme Realm expert, I could easily get you out of trouble."

Hearing this, Ji Wuchang breathed a sigh of relief. With Ji Yaoyao's assurance, he felt completely at ease.

The next day, Ji Wuchang deliberately woke up early, left the city lord's mansion, and found a place to check in, gaining five years of cultivation. Afterward, everyone boarded a flying vessel and departed from the city lord's mansion, heading straight for Chasing Star Mountain!

As soon as Ji Wuchang and his group left, several groups from White Sheep City also took off, their destination also Chasing Star Mountain!

Ji Wuchang sat cross-legged on the flying vessel, glancing at his system panel:

【Host: Ji Wuchang】

【Cultivation: Soul Division Realm, Eighth Layer】

【Bone Quality: Heavenly Tier, Lower Grade】

【Fortune Value: 8319】

【Special Abilities: Soul Devouring, Puppet Clone Technique】

【System Tasks: None】

【Note: Thirteen years of unused cultivation can be used at any time.】

Looking at the unused thirteen years of cultivation, Ji Wuchang decided to save it. He wasn't sure if he could gain cultivation by checking in at Chasing Star Mountain.

Three days later, they arrived at their destination. As soon as they arrived, countless gazes swept over them—people from other cities. Ji Wuchang's soul power scanned the area, and he noticed that almost everyone was at the Six Spirit Realm. Someone at the Soul Division Realm like him was indeed a rarity here!
