2598 Secretly Cultivating The terrain of the Builder Tree Mountain Range was semicircular. Using the mountain range as the main focus, in the valley below, two gigantic sealing immortal formations were set up and they were known as the Builder Tree Battlefields. The elimination round in the Builder Tree Battlefield was open to every Perfected Immortal. Participating Perfected Immortals would obtain a badge called the Builder Tree Badge. Once injected with True Essence, the Builder Tree Badge would activate a defensive barrier that was connected to the immortal formation. No matter what danger they encountered, they would survive. An expert at the Perfected Immortal realm was an irreplaceable support for any sect or faction. There was no way they would allow Perfected Immortals to kill one another and fight with their lives for the sake of the Perfected Immortal Ranking. That would be a self-destructive action for both the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain and Pure Land of Bliss. That was the reason for the existence of the Builder Tree Badge. On the other hand, the Builder Tree Badge was also closely related to the final ranking. In the two Builder Tree Battlefields, the top hundred Perfected Immortals who obtained the most Builder Tree Badges would enter the final battle. There have been many competition formats for the Nine Firmament Meet. However, after many attempts, this was the most fair and reasonable one. Su Zimo listened for a while. This model was similar to when he took part in the Immortal Sect Selection back then. The two Builder Tree Battlefields were long prepared. On the side of the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain, a group of Perfected Immortal experts stood up one after another. Renowned experts such as Sword Immortal Yue Hua, Zither Immortal Meng Yao, Perfected Immortal Wu Feng and Chunfeng Jian would naturally not miss this opportunity. Even Yang Ruoxu was prepared to undergo a baptism of killing in the Builder Tree Battlefield. The improvement of watching from the sidelines was never as great as experiencing it personally. “Sister, aren’t you taking part?” When Yun Zhu saw that Mo Qing did not stand up the entire time, she could not help but ask. “I…” In the depths of her heart, she was not willing to participate in such a fight. There were only ten spots on the Perfected Immortal Ranking. However, if one could be ranked in the top hundred of the Builder Tree Battlefield, they could also obtain a chance to cultivate beneath the Builder Tree! In other words, at the Nine Firmament Meet, only 200 Perfected Immortals were qualified to cultivate beneath the Builder Tree. This was an irresistible temptation for many Perfected Immortals. Even if one only managed to cultivate beneath the Builder Tree for a month, it would be equivalent to 10,000 years of effort! Furthermore, the Builder Tree only slept once every 100,000 years. This was a rare opportunity that could not be missed. “Alright.” Mo Qing nodded. Before long, thousands of Perfected Immortals from the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain, including the four great fairies, entered the fray. Apart from some Perfected Immortals whose cultivation realms were too low and thought that they had no hope, most of them intended to fight in the Builder Tree Battlefield. On the side of the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain, tens of thousands of Perfected Immortals entered the fray. The situation on the side of the Pure Land of Bliss was not much different. The Perfected Immortals and Arhats wielded their Builder Tree Badges and were randomly teleported to various parts of the Builder Tree Battlefields. A massive battle between Perfected Immortals had officially begun! Su Zimo took a rough look. Chess Immortal Jun Yu of the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain, Qin Ce of the Grand Firmament Immortal Domain, Lin Lei of the Green Firmament Immortal Domain, Fairy Jia Lan of the Verdant Firmament Immortal Domain, Zhuo Wuchen and Yun Mubai of the White Firmament Immortal Domain—all of these hot candidates on the Perfected Immortal Ranking were extremely domineering. The moment the battle royale began, they did not choose to form a team with others. Instead, they pushed forth alone and no one could stop them! Among the four great fairies, apart from Chess Immortal Jun Yu, Zither Immortal Meng Yao and Book Immortal Yun Zhu relied on their own methods as well to snatch the Builder Tree Badges continuously and smoothly. Mo Qing did not like to fight nor did she take the initiative to look for opponents. Under normal circumstances, it would be difficult for her to obtain enough Builder Tree Badges if she participated in this battle royale. However, there were always Perfected Immortals who thought that Painting Immortal Mo Qing was the weakest among the four great fairies and took the initiative to attack her. News of Mo Qing tearing the Painting Book at the Divine Firmament Immortal Meet had long spread through the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain. Many Perfected Immortals instinctively felt that Mo Qing’s combat strength had decreased after losing the Painting Book and was not much of a threat. However, none of them expected that Mo Qing would advance in her cultivation realm with the help of the Divine Ghost Immortal Fiend Diagram and gain new insights into the Dao of painting. It was just that she rarely fought against others, creating the misconception that the Painting Immortal was weak. With the Perfected Immortals that came knocking on her door, the number of Builder Tree Badges on Mo Qing’s body increased continuously. Yang Ruoxu was only a Convergence Perfected Immortal after all. It did not take long for him to be defeated by a Hollow Nether Perfected Immortal within and was unfortunately eliminated. Be it the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain or the Pure Land of Bliss, almost all the cultivators’ attention was focused on the two Builder Tree Battlefields below. As the battle progressed, everyone discussed and commented. Su Zimo merely looked at it for a while before calming down. He secretly extended the connection of his Green Lotus True Body underground. Su Zimo’s spirit consciousness followed the thick roots and gradually arrived at the true form of the Builder Tree. At that moment, it was as though he had transformed into a Creation Green Lotus and took root here. His roots intertwined with the roots of the Builder Tree and began to absorb the lifeforce of the latter! Su Zimo did not dare to absorb it too quickly. Firstly, he was worried that he would alarm the Builder Tree. Secondly, he was afraid of attracting attention. Apart from a group of Perfected Immortal experts, there were also many Immortal Kings holding down the fort at the Nine Firmament Meet after all. All of these Immortal Kings had sharp senses. If anything happened, there was a high chance that some of them would be suspicious! As time passed by, the combat on the Builder Tree Battlefield below intensified. A series of exclamations sounded from the crowd from time to time. Su Zimo did not care nor was he interested. He continued to absorb and refine the Builder Tree in secret to strengthen the Green Lotus True Body. In just a day, he could clearly sense that the Green Lotus True Body had received an extremely obvious improvement! If he were to cultivate at this speed, the Green Lotus True Body might be able to grow to the peak of Grade 11 within a few days! As the Green Lotus True Body grew, his cultivation realm would increase as well and he would reach the peak of a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal! Su Zimo cultivated in silence and absorbed and refined the lifeforce energy of the Builder Tree. Although he had been suppressing it the entire time, he could not help but emit a unique aura that belonged to the Flora race. This aura was mixed with the Builder Tree and Creation Green Lotus. Although Perfected Immortals might not be able to sense it, it could not be hidden from some Immortal King experts! “Mmm?” The expression of Immortal King Qing Yang changed, as though he sensed something. At the same time, on the side of the Green Firmament Immortal Domain, Immortal Queen Ling Long sensed something unusual about Su Zimo. She hurriedly conjured a secret skill through the endless void in secret, creating a concealment that could hide the heavenly secrets around Su Zimo. Immortal King Qing Yang glanced sideways and surveyed Su Zimo’s side. When he did not find anything, he frowned and retracted his gaze.
