Starting with Check-In Sacred Body of the Ancients-Chapter 98: Tianqin Fairy’s Qin Competition, Plotting Against the Third Prince, Feng Qingling Arrives

Chapter 98 - 98: Tianqin Fairy's Qin Competition, Plotting Against the Third Prince, Feng Qingling Arrives

With Qin Xuan's introduction, Jun Xiaoyao gained a general understanding of the imperial city.

"By the way, is there any place in this imperial city where one can obtain Origin Stones?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.

"Origin Stones?" Qin Xuan glanced at Jun Xiaoyao.

The meaning was clearly: would someone who could casually take out top-grade Divine Origin stones still be lacking Origin Stones?

"I'm talking about Immortal Origin," Jun Xiaoyao said.

"Immortal Origin?" Qin Xuan was slightly startled.

For someone of her level, top-grade Divine Origin stones were already a fortuitous encounter that one could only hope for.

As for Immortal Origin, she had never even thought about it.

"Oh, I remember now. In a few days, at Xianqiong Pavilion, the exceptionally talented woman of the Immortal Dance Qin Sect, Tianqin Fairy, will hold a qin competition." (TN: Tianqin means Sky Qin or Heavenly Qin)

"If someone can defeat Tianqin Fairy in terms of qin skills, they will receive a reward of three hundred pieces of Immortal Origin," Qin Xuan suddenly said.

Jun Xiaoyao was slightly surprised upon hearing this.

He knew of the Immortal Dance Qin Sect; it was a renowned top-tier orthodoxy that cultivated through the qin.

Once, the master of the Immortal Dance Qin Sect had subdued four Saint King experts with qin music, causing the Immortal Dance Qin Sect's fame to soar for a time.

And Tianqin Fairy was also a peerless beauty whose fame had spread far and wide, and she was the top prodigy of the Immortal Dance Qin Sect.

"Although the Immortal Dance Qin Sect is a top-tier orthodoxy, can they afford to offer three hundred pieces of Immortal Origin?" Jun Xiaoyao was skeptical.

"Young Master may not know, but those Immortal Origin pieces were pooled together by Tianqin Fairy's admirers, such as the Young Master of the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce, the Third Prince of the Panwu Divine Dynasty, and so on."

"Wait, you said the Third Prince of the Panwu Divine Dynasty is an admirer of Tianqin Fairy?" Jun Xiaoyao's eyes flickered slightly.

"That's right. It's just that Tianqin Fairy is an ice mountain beauty, with an arrogant personality. Even the Third Prince has been pursuing her arduously but to no avail," Qin Xuan said.

This wasn't a big secret; many people knew about it.

Jun Xiaoyao pondered, and a plan gradually formed in his mind.

"My qin skills are mediocre, but dealing with that qin competition should still be simple enough."

"If everything goes according to my plan, then the Panwu Mausoleum is secured." A smile touched the corners of Jun Xiaoyao's lips; he was confident.

Plotting against an immortal force was not such a simple matter.

But for Jun Xiaoyao, it wasn't insurmountably difficult.

"That Wu Mingyue is the first chess piece. Then this Third Prince of the Panwu Divine Dynasty will be the second chess piece," Jun Xiaoyao muttered to himself.

As time passed.

The entire imperial capital of the Divine Dynasty became increasingly lively.

Every day, young talents from many top-tier orthodoxies could be seen arriving.

And before Wu Mingyue selected her consort and Champion Hou's challenge.

There was another matter that caused a small-scale sensation.

That was, the exceptionally talented woman of the Immortal Dance Qin Sect, Tianqin Fairy, would hold a qin competition at Xianqiong Pavilion.

This Tianqin Fairy was also a renowned beauty in the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain.

However, she was an ice mountain beauty, showing no interest whatsoever in the pursuits of any young talent.

Only the Way of the Qin could arouse Tianqin Fairy's interest.

But the Way of the Qin was very niche. In the entire Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain, how many young talents were proficient in the Way of the Qin?

It was precisely because of this that, to date, no man had been able to catch Tianqin Fairy's eye.

Someone even made up a joke about it.

If a man could conquer Tianqin Fairy.

Then that man must be the God of the Qin.

Of course, even though Tianqin Fairy's personality was like this, her pursuers were still as numerous as crucian carp crossing a river.

The three hundred pieces of Immortal Origin for this qin competition were sponsored by those "舔狗" (sycophantic admirers) of Tianqin Fairy. (TN: "舔狗" (tiǎngǒu) literally means "licking dog," a slang term for someone who fawns over another, often a celebrity or someone they admire, in a subservient or desperate way, similar to a "simp" or "stan" in English slang.)

...

Xianqiong Pavilion was considered one of the most luxurious and magnificent pavilions in the imperial capital of the Divine Dynasty.

Just the entrance fee to step into Xianqiong Pavilion was ten low-grade Divine Origin stones.

It could be said that this was the most extravagant place, and only disciples of top-tier orthodoxies, princes and nobles of the Divine Dynasty, and prodigies of immortal forces had the means to enter.

And today, on the top floor of Xianqiong Pavilion, flower rain洒落 (scattered), and rosy clouds enveloped the area.

Numerous young talents had gathered.

It could be said that apart from the upcoming banquet for the Eldest Princess to choose her consort, this qin competition was the most grand.

Among the prodigies scattered around, there were many astonishing auras; all were top talents from various forces.

In a VIP seat, sat a young man dressed in a luxurious crimson-gold robe.

He had a handsome face, a composed temperament, and carried the aura of a superior. He was precisely the Third Prince of the Panwu Divine Dynasty.

At this moment, his gaze was filled with infatuation and longing as he looked at the high platform.

On the high platform, mist and clouds swirled.

A woman dressed in a bright red floral dress, with a cold and elegant, dignified appearance, was seated there.

Her skin was extremely fair, her features exceptionally beautiful, her fingers like slender scallion roots, her mouth like it held cinnabar.

A plain qin was placed before her. As she lightly caressed the strings, from afar, she looked like a peerlessly beautiful scene from a painting.

This woman was precisely the exceptionally talented woman of the Immortal Dance Qin Sect, Tianqin Fairy.

A woman who cultivated through the Way of the Qin, pure as ice and jade.

At this moment, her fair and slender hands, like suet jade, were lightly plucking the qin strings. The qin music, gurgling like flowing water, actually attracted spirit birds to fly over and circle Xianqiong Pavilion.

"This melody should only exist in the heavens; how often can it be heard in the mortal world..." The Third Prince listened, entranced, praising endlessly.

Tianqin Fairy's attraction was not only her appearance but also the temperament that emanated from her very bones.

"Listening to the fairy's tune washes away the dust of the mortal world..." On another side, a handsome youth with the air of a noble young master also sighed.

He was the Young Master of the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce.

The Wanbao Chamber of Commerce was a rather famous chamber of commerce in the Desolate Heaven Immortal Domain, with formidable strength and dealings with many immortal orthodoxies.

And for the three hundred pieces of Immortal Origin in this qin competition, a large portion was contributed by the Young Master of the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce.

Of course, although they felt the pain of contributing this Immortal Origin, it was also to win a smile from the beauty.

However, making Tianqin Fairy smile was very difficult.

To make her look at someone with special regard was even harder than ascending to the heavens.

And just at this moment, in the distant sky, a dazzling golden luan bird pulled a chariot, heading towards Xianqiong Pavilion.

When they saw that luan bird, many prodigies on the top floor of Xianqiong Pavilion were surprised.

"That's... a luan bird from Myriad Phoenix Spirit Mountain. Could it be that a successor from Myriad Phoenix Spirit Mountain has emerged?"

Just as everyone was extremely surprised.

The luan bird stopped in the void, and a graceful figure enveloped in crimson divine radiance walked out of the chariot.

Behind her was a pair of phoenix wings. Her peerless beauty was veiled by divine radiance, making it difficult to see clearly.

It was precisely Feng Qingling.

After she and Huang Xuanyi rushed to the imperial capital of the Divine Dynasty, they heard about the qin competition.

Coincidentally, Feng Qingling was also skilled in qin music, and a competitive spirit arose in her heart, so she came alone to attend.

Tianqin Fairy glanced at Feng Qingling but said nothing.

In terms of strength, she might not be a match for this successor of an Archaic Royal Clan.

But in terms of qin skills, she believed she was second to none among the prodigies of any immortal orthodoxy.

As time passed, various talents arrived, and the qin competition was about to begin.

And just at this moment, a transcendent figure in white stepped into Xianqiong Pavilion...
