Emperor of Pills and Martial Arts

The sound of thunder rumbled through the air.    

Instantly, the entire world seemed to tremble.    

Soon after, the top of the mountain began to shake as well, as if an enormous earthquake had occurred.    

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"    

In the midst of the thunderous noise, another rhythmic voice came one after another. It came from the towering cliff face at the easternmost part of the mountain peak.    

That cliff face was extremely smooth like an entire boulder, and also like a smooth mirror, without the slightest bit of flaws or cracks.    

However, among the rhythmic sounds, an extremely dazzling light suddenly flashed from the center of the cliff face.    

The light shone green, and under the Cyan World's green Qi, it became even more green.    

The green light slowly expanded, forming a green line from top to bottom, like a smooth cliff face opening a door from the line.    

When the green light appeared, Fu Yongsi looked at Chu Mo and said: "Seems like, the battle between us will be delayed for a while."    

Chu Mo did not mind, he shrugged and said: "We welcome you to come and continue to look for me at any time."    

After he finished speaking, Chu Mo turned around and walked back to the side of Dugu Batian and the others, and asked in puzzlement: "What's going on with that green light?"    

Dugu Batian looked at the green light and casually replied, "Green Bamboo Pool, it's about to open."    

Chu Mo asked: "Is the Green Bamboo Pool inside the cliff face?"    

Dugu Batian shook his head and said: "No, Green Bamboo Pool is under that cliff face."    

At this time, the green light was growing bigger and bigger, and the tall cliff face had already opened a big crack. Although the door was not completely open, it was big enough to fit two carriages at once.    

However, everyone at the top of the mountain was only fervently looking at the green light and the pathway on top of the cliff face.    

As a newcomer to the Green Bamboo Pool for the first time, Chu Mo had a lot of things he didn't understand, so he could only unceasingly ask Dugu Batian, and said: "Since the Green Bamboo Pool is open, why isn't anyone entering?"    

Dugu Batian said, "They're waiting!"    

Chu Mo asked: What are you waiting for?    

Dugu Batian slowly spat out three words: "Entry ticket!"    

"Entry ticket?"    

Chu Mo was even more confused now that he heard the words, completely confused.    

Seeing Chu Mo's confused expression, Dugu Batian slowly explained, "Although these people have all come to the Cyan World, not everyone has the qualifications to enter the Green Bamboo Pool. The Green Bamboo Pool was a wondrous pond born from the heavens and the earth. It had its own rules and only those who followed those rules would be able to safely enter. Therefore, if you want to enter the Green Bamboo Pool, you must first have an admission ticket. "    

Chu Mo asked: What admission ticket?    

Dugu Batian reached into his bosom and took out a green colored Bamboo Leaf.    

"A bunch of Bamboo Leaf?"    

Chu Mo thought that it was child's play and asked: "The ticket you're talking about, is that a piece of Bamboo Leaf?"    

"That's right!"    

Dugu Batian nodded and said: "This Bamboo Leaf is not an ordinary Bamboo Leaf. It comes from the Nine Leaf Spirit Bamboo! As an alchemist, I believe you should have heard of the Nine Leaf Bamboo. This type of spirit bamboo was born in the ancient era. It was not raised within families, but rather naturally grew from nature. It was a type of divine bamboo. And this kind of divine bamboo's Bamboo Leaf is born with some kind of unique material that can protect us from being harmed by the Green Bamboo Pool. "    

"So that's how it is!"    

Chu Mo understood this point, but more questions arose as he asked, "Why do you have Bamboo Leaf? Since you have a Bamboo Leaf, then doesn't that mean you already have a ticket to the competition? With an admission ticket, why haven't you entered the stage yet? "    

"Not yet!"    

Dugu Batian smiled slightly and said, "As for Bamboo Leaf, I'm not the only one with one. They have one as well."    

Seeing Dugu Batian pointing his finger at them, Bai Bingning and Li Ming also took out a piece of Bamboo Leaf s.    

Dugu Batian continued: "This Bamboo Leaf, was obtained when we first came to the Green Bamboo Pool. This Bamboo Leaf could never rot, it could always be kept, thus it had been kept until now. Actually, a majority of the people here have already obtained Bamboo Leaf s before, so they do not need any admission tickets. "    

Chu Mo nodded his head, and said: "That is to say, only newcomers like me who are new to the competition will lack an admission ticket!"    

Dugu Batian replied, "Yes, it's just that the number of admission tickets is too small!"    

Chu Mo frowned and asked: "How many?"    

At this time, Bai Bingning opened his mouth and said: "Do you know why Nine Leaf Spirit Bamboo is called Nine Leaf Spirit Bamboo?"
