Under Qin Xuan's introduction, Jun Xiaoyao gained some understanding of the Imperial City.
"By the way, is there a place in this Imperial City where one can obtain Origin Stones?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
"Origin Stones?" Qin Xuan glanced at Jun Xiaoyao.
The implication was clear.
Someone who could casually produce a Supreme Divine Source, would he still be lacking in Origin Stones?
"I mean Immortal Origin." Jun Xiaoyao clarified.
"Immortal Origin?" Qin Xuan was slightly surprised.
For someone of her level, a Supreme Divine Source was already a rare opportunity.
As for Immortal Origin, she had never even thought about it.
"By the way, I remember that in a few days, the Immortal Jade Tower, the pride of the Immortal Dance Qin Sect, Tianqin Girl, will host a music competition."
"If anyone can surpass Tianqin Girl in the art of music, they will receive a reward of three hundred Immortal Origin Stones." Qin Xuan suddenly said.
Jun Xiaoyao was somewhat surprised upon hearing this.
He knew about the Immortal Dance Qin Sect, a renowned top-tier sect that practiced the way through music.
Once, the leader of the Immortal Dance Qin Sect subdued four Saint Kings with music, causing the sect's reputation to soar.
And Tianqin Girl was also a renowned beauty, a top-tier pride of the Immortal Dance Qin Sect.
"Although the Immortal Dance Qin Sect is a top-tier sect, can they really come up with three hundred Immortal Origin Stones?" Jun Xiaoyao was skeptical.
"Sir, you don't know, those Immortal Origin Stones were gathered by Tianqin Girl's admirers, such as the young master of the Ten Thousand Treasures Chamber and the third prince of the Panwu Divine Dynasty."
"Wait, you said the third prince of the Panwu Divine Dynasty is one of Tianqin Girl's admirers?" Jun Xiaoyao's eyes flickered slightly.
"That's right. Tianqin Girl is an ice queen, proud in nature, and even the third prince has been pursuing her in vain." 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 musical skills are mediocre, but dealing with that music competition should be relatively simple."
"If everything goes as I plan, then Panwu Ling is a sure thing." Jun Xiaoyao smiled, confident in his plan.
Manipulating an immortal power wasn't an easy task.
But for Jun Xiaoyao, it wasn't impossible.
"Wu Mingyue is the first pawn, and the third prince of the Panwu Divine Dynasty will be the second pawn." Jun Xiaoyao murmured to himself.
As time passed,
The entire imperial capital became increasingly bustling.
Every day, many young geniuses from top-tier sects could be seen arriving.
Before Wu Mingyue's selection as a prince consort and the Champion Marquis's challenge,
Another event caused a small sensation.
The Immortal Dance Qin Sect's pride, Tianqin Girl, would host a music competition at the Immortal Jade Tower.
Tianqin Girl was also a renowned beauty in the Vast Heaven Immortal Domain.
However, she was an ice queen, showing no interest in any young genius's pursuit.
Only the art of music could pique her interest.
But the art of music was a niche field, and in the entire Vast Heaven Immortal Domain, how many young geniuses were proficient in it?
Thus, no man had yet caught Tianqin Girl's eye.
Some even joked that if a man could win Tianqin Girl's heart,
That man must be a god of music.
Of course, despite her nature, those who pursued her were as numerous as fish crossing a river.
The three hundred Immortal Origin Stones for this music competition were sponsored by her admirers.
...
The Immortal Jade Tower was one of the most luxurious and magnificent buildings in the imperial capital.
Just the entrance fee to step into the Immortal Jade Tower was ten Lower-grade Divine Sources.
It could be said that this was the most luxurious place, accessible only to top-tier sect disciples, imperial nobles, and the elites of immortal powers.
Today, on the top floor of the Immortal Jade Tower, flower petals rained down, and a rosy glow enveloped the area.
Many young geniuses gathered here.
This music competition could be considered the most grandiose event before the Long Princess's selection of a prince consort.
Among the gathered geniuses, many astonishing auras emanated from the top-tier geniuses of various powers.
In a VIP seat, a young man in a crimson-golden luxurious robe sat.
He was handsome, composed, and exuded an aura of a superior being, 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, misty clouds swirled.
A woman in a bright red floral dress, with a cold and elegant appearance, sat there.
Her skin was extremely fair, her beauty unmatched, her fingers like finely carved jade, and her lips like a cherry blossom.
A plain zither was placed before her, and as she gently plucked the strings, she looked like a beautiful scene in a painting from a distance.
This woman was Tianqin Girl, the pride of the Immortal Dance Qin Sect, a woman who practiced the way through music, pure and refined.
At this moment, her slender, snow-white hands, like white jade, gently touched the strings, and the flowing music attracted spiritual birds to circle around the Immortal Jade Tower.
"This melody should only be heard in heaven, how rare it is to hear it in the mortal world..." The third prince listened in a trance, praising endlessly.
Tianqin Girl's allure was not just her beauty but also the aura she exuded from within.
"Listening to the immortal maiden's melody, one is cleansed of the world's dust..." On the other side, a handsome young man with a noble air also sighed.
He was the young master of the Ten Thousand Treasures Chamber.
The Ten Thousand Treasures Chamber was a well-known chamber in the Vast Heaven Immortal Domain, with substantial strength and trading with many immortal sects.
A large portion of the three hundred Immortal Origin Stones for this music competition was contributed by the young master of the Ten Thousand Treasures Chamber.
Of course, although it pained them to part with the Immortal Origin Stones, it was to win the maiden's smile.
However, making Tianqin Girl smile was difficult.
To make her look at someone differently was even harder.
At this moment, a golden phoenix bird pulled a carriage from the distant sky, heading towards the Immortal Jade Tower.
When the phoenix bird was seen, many geniuses on the top floor of the Immortal Jade Tower were surprised.
"That's... the phoenix bird from the Ten Thousand Phoenix Spirit Mountain. Could it be that a descendant of the Ten Thousand Phoenix Spirit Mountain has appeared?"
As everyone was in shock,
The phoenix bird stopped in mid-air, and a graceful figure enveloped in crimson divine light stepped out of the carriage.
Behind her, a pair of phoenix wings spread, and her stunning beauty was shrouded in divine light, making it hard to see clearly.
It was Feng Qingling.
After arriving in the imperial capital with Huang Xuan, she heard about the music competition.
Since Feng Qingling was also skilled in music, she had a competitive spirit and came alone to the competition.
Tianqin Girl glanced at Feng Qingling but said nothing.
In terms of strength, she might not match this descendant of an ancient imperial clan.
But in terms of music, she was confident she could match any top-tier genius from an immortal sect.
As time passed, all the geniuses gathered, and the music competition was about to begin.
At this moment, a figure in white, transcendent and elegant, stepped into the Immortal Jade Tower...
