Chapter 1164: New Name on the Supreme Might Rankings
Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire
Before the young man exited the ancient peak, news of this has yet to spread to the other sacred academies.
In the Sky Connecting Realm, at the location where the Sky Connecting Immortal Rock was, the Supreme Might Rankings would naturally attract the attention of many experts.
Currently on the immortal rock, the silhouette of every figure engraved there were all an indication of the most terrifying experts within the Sky Connecting Realm.
At this moment, the Sky Connecting Immortal Rock suddenly shone with a resplendent light, causing the eyes of experts near it to gleam as they stared at it. Could it be that there’s a new person on the Supreme Might Rankings?
The gazes of everyone turned to the immortal rock with solemn expressions on their faces. After that, they discovered that at a certain area of the immortal rock, the place there began to dim as the previously shining glow dissipated.
"How can this be?" Many people felt their expressions stiffen when they saw this scene. How shocking was this, that dimming blob of light represented a supreme genius of the generations, named Li Yufeng.
What sort of character was Li Yufeng? He was a supreme genius from the Hundred Refinements Sect, a peak power located in the Northern Regions. In fact, his status was so high because he was named Sage Child of their sect, and only those with truly extraordinary prowess could gain the title. Li Yufeng was at the fifth-level of immortal-foundation but he was already named Sage Child. From this, one could see how outstanding he was.
Naturally this place was the sacred academy. No matter how outstanding Li Yufeng was, in this place where geniuses are as common as clouds, one’s status spoke for little here. Since he could appear on the Supreme Might Rankings, this meant that his combat prowess was definitely extremely overwhelming.
In the Northern Regions of the immortal realms, the Hundred Refinements Sect and the Darknorth Immortal Dynasty had many grudges and conflicts. However, there was a princess with a high status from the Darknorth Immortal Dynasty that just so coincidentally, fell in love with this Sage Child of the Hundred Refinements Sect. The two of them decided to be dao companions and this princess was none other than the blood younger sister of Beiming Youhuang. She herself was also an outstanding character, a beauty whose appearance exuded magnificence throughout the generations. After she entered to Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy, her number of pursuers naturally grew as well.
Once, there was an extremely powerful pursuer at the seventh-level chasing her. But after fighting against Li Yufeng in the Sky Connecting Realm, that expert was killed by Li Yufeng despite being two levels higher. This incident stunned the entire Sky Connecting Realm and in addition to Li Yufeng’s status in the Hundred Refinements Sect, from then on, not many of his love rivals dared to antagonize Li Yufeng. His name, was engraved on the Sky Connecting Immortal Rock before that.
Those silhouettes engraved on the immortal rock weren’t individuals with the most overwhelming combat prowess, but they are for sure the strongest experts of any particular cultivation realm. All of them were people with shocking battle achievements but as of today, such a powerful character like Li Yufeng, actually fell out from the Supreme Might Rankings as his silhouette and name lost their luster.
"Who at the fifth-level of immortal-foundation could replace Li Yufeng?" The eyes of everyone focused on the Sky Connecting Immortal Rock. This was especially so for those who personally witnessed Li Yufeng’s combat prowess in the past. They didn’t believe that there would be any others who can surpass and replace Li Yufeng in the fifth-level of immortal-foundation.
Eventually, Li Yufeng’s silhouette still vanished from the immortal rock as a brand new silhouette took his place. This silhouette was a young man with long black hair draping his shoulders, he exuded a magnificence that lasted through the generations and had handsome features, along with an unmatchable disposition. He was none other than the person who replaced Li Yufeng.
"Who is this man? Why does he seem so familiar? Does he even have the qualifications to replace Li Yufeng?" There were some who were unwilling to accept this result. They had once witnessed how tyrannical Li Yufeng was, how could he be replaced so easily by a random person?
"Could it be that Li Yufeng broke through to the sixth-level?" Someone commented. However, the time which Li Yufeng stepped into the fifth-level wasn’t too long ago, it was almost impossible for him to break through so quickly to the sixth-level.
"Oh it’s that young man with the saint-grade immortal foundation. He was the main lead regarding the Chu Qingyi saga." Someone then spoke out, recognizing Qin Wentian. At this moment, a brilliant light flashed from the Sky Connecting Immortal Rock, indicating with no doubt that Li Yufeng was replaced by this young man.
A resplendent flash of light illuminated the Sky Connecting Realm as numerous figures sped towards the location of the Sky Connecting Immortal Rock. After they saw the silhouette of Qin Wentian, some were filled with suspicion while others were filled with admiration.
Right now, a figure rushing over stated, "The rules of the sacred academy have changed indeed. Even for matters that happened outside the Sky Connecting Realm, the Sky Connecting Immortal Rock can sense it as well. Most probably, right now Qin Wentian has also entered the Sky Connecting Realm."
This person was someone who witnessed the battle between Qin Wentian and Huang Youdi. Although he was somewhat surprised by the fact that Qin Wentian had replaced Li Yufeng, he could accept this result. After all, Huang Youdi was an extremely terrifying opponent yet Qin Wentian could even jump levels and defeat him. He could only wonder who would the victor be if Qin Wentian fought against Li Yufeng.
"I wonder what attitude Li Yufeng would have with regards to this." Many people were silently speculating.
Right now, Qin Wentian did indeed enter the Sky Connecting Realm. When the immortal rock released that flash of light, he also received a resonance in his heart. Glancing over to the location of the immortal rock in the horizons, it felt like he sensed something.
"The Sky Connecting Realm is truly mystical." Qin Wentian mumbled. The people in the surroundings were all glancing at Qin Wentian, Qin Wentian’s words seemed to be indicating something.
"Senior brother, let’s hurry." Jun Mengchen continued leading the way, speeding towards the entrance of the sacred academy Qing`er was in. However, before they could enter, a figure in the lead suddenly halted and said, "Wait."
"What’s the matter?" Qin Wentian glanced at that person, it was their senior apprentice brother Tang Sheng from the Heavenly Talisman Realm who was at the ninth-level of immortal-foundation.
"They are here." Tang Sheng spoke. After which, Qin Wentian’s brows furrowed, he could sense an incoming baleful qi rushing over to them from afar.
"Disperse, if possible, you should rather die in battle than to be captured alive." Qin Wentian spoke. His comrades instantly understood Qin Wentian’s intentions. After that, their group split up and all of them sped towards different directions.
The rules of the sacred academy have changed, and one enters the Sky Connecting Realm with their true body. But in order to prevent large amounts of geniuses from dying in the sacred academy, the rule where one would be sent out if they died in the Sky Connecting Realm still remained the same.
But once they are captured alive, Qin Wentian and the others clearly understood the consequences.
Choosing to retreat instead of fighting was not an honorable matter. However, wasn’t it silly for an ant trying to shake a tree? Qin Wentian knew how strong his current opponents are, if he fought head-on in a clash, he and his comrades would certainly end up in a miserable state.
After that, a group of figures hurriedly sped over. Among them, there was actually Huang Youdi as well as the experts from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire. Back then they were forced to retreat because of Qin Wentian’s threat. Now, they actually came to the sacred academy which Qing`er was at, sealing the entrance as though in anticipation that Qin Wentian would come here for sure.
Naturally, if the enemies only included experts from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire, Qin Wentian wouldn’t chose to disperse his forces and would instead fight against them. But right now, his enemies included the white tigers who have joined forces with the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire, creating an extremely tough to deal with situation.
That baleful qi drifting over seemed to be an indication of rage from the White Tiger Race.
Qin Wentian flew away alone, actually choosing to head towards the central location of the Sky Connecting Realm where the Sky Connecting Immortal Rock was located. His speed was extremely fast, large wings formed behind his back, giving him an appearance resembling a great roc. Right now behind him, Huang Wudi was currently riding on a flying sword chasing after him. Huang Wudi was clad in luxurious golden robes that fluttered in the wind as a cold killing intent could be seen in his eyes. Huang Wudi was moving so fast that he seemed like a golden streak of lightning.
Only he alone was pursuing Qin Wentian. With the aid of his flying sword, Qin Wentian would have no way to escape if he chose to flee into the skies.
Indeed, Qin Wentian had no way to escape. Before him, another figure appeared. This figure was none other than White-eye, a white tiger king from the White Tiger Race. After breaking through to the seventh-level, White-eye was like a god of slaughter, standing there and barring Qin Wentian’s path.
Halting his steps, Qin Wentian calmly stared at the figure of White-eye blocking his path. His deep and immeasurable eyes contained a coldness that would cause chills in the hearts of those who saw it.
"Fleeing?" The killing intent in White-eye’s gaze was unmasked as he continued coldly, "After hiding for so long, you eventually have no choice but to exit the site for the dao lecture?"
Qin Wentian was cultivating and was in an all-immersive state following the dao lecture. Yet when White-eye spoke, it became that he was hiding from them.
"A beast will ultimately be a beast. Although the White Tiger Race always proclaims themselves to be lofty beings, they are nothing but a bunch of trash and even has to join forces with others." Qin Wentian mocked. This White-eye chose to join forces with the lowly humans from the Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire yet he still even wanted to initiate and insult to Qin Wentian. How ridiculous.
Behind him, an aura of sharpness flashed. Huang Wudi walked over, and he was currently at the ninth-level of immortal-foundation and even fought against Jia Nantian the golden-winged great roc before. One could very well imagine his strength. He stood behind Qin Wentian and was not in a rush to make his move. Similarly, he coldly regarded Qin Wentian, this man who dared humiliate a prince of his Nine-Emperors Immortal Empire.
Qin Wentian naturally had to pay a price for that.
"It’s Qin Wentian, the young man who replaced Li Yufeng on the Supreme Might Immortal Rankings." Since this place was the central location of the Sky Connecting Realm, there were some whose eyes gleamed when they noticed Qin Wentian and gradually, more and more experts started to gather here. This fellow only just replaced Li Yufeng but was now running into trouble already? They couldn’t help but to wonder if Qin Wentian would display his combat prowess.
"RUMBLE~" Qin Wentian moved, shooting straight for White-eye. His entire body glowed with a divine light as an attack from him generated the roar of a dragon, capable of killing everything.
White-eye howled in rage, he directly reverted to his true form. Once, he fought against Qin Wentian on the life-and-death arena. At that time he was at the sixth-level while Qin Wentian was at the fourth. Now, both their cultivation bases have actually been upgraded. But of course, since he stepped from the sixth to the seventh level, moving from the middle-tier to the upper-tier of immortal-foundation, the increase in his strength should be more terrifying in comparison.
Today, he will make Qin Wentian live a life worse than death.
His gigantic white tiger paws slammed out, manifesting waves of angry white tigers that rushed over, slamming into the demonic dragon materialized by Qin Wentian, tearing the dragon apart.
Qin Wentian seemed to be unable to sense White-eye’s increase in strength. He actually stepped out, choosing to enter close combat. He unleashed the treasured greater demons innate techniques with every move, exuding boundless might as though he himself was a true greater demon.
White-eye’s roars of anger continued unceasingly as boundless amounts of baleful energy enveloped the heavens and earth. One man and one demon frenziedly clashed against each other, causing this entire space to crack. The nearby experts all felt their hearts shuddering as they spectated this battle. If Qin Wentian could prove his combat prowess, he would validate the fact that it was only normal that he replaced Li Yufeng on the Supreme Might Rankings.
Huang Wudi didn’t move. He stared at the battle as his eyes glowed with an emperor light.
With him here, Qin Wentian would find it hard to escape even if given wings.
"How powerful." The experts here continued spectating, casting occasional glances at Huang Wudi who seemed extremely confident.
Qin Wentian’s attacks grew more and more violent, to the point where he forced White-eye to unleash the ultimate secret arts of the White Tiger Race. When he saw waves of white tigers generated by White-eye rushing over, Qin Wentian’s eyes suddenly gleamed with a strange light. Today, he will allow White-eye to feel satisfaction for now before taking White-eye’s life another day.
Controlling his strength, Qin Wentian’s attacks weakened as they were broken apart by the generated white tigers. Under the secret art White-eye unleashed, Qin Wentian’s countenance paled as the boundless baleful energy slammed into him, breaking apart his defenses. Huang Wudi’s eyes gleamed, wanting to act but before he could do anything, Qin Wentian already perished as a beam of light sent him out from the Sky Connecting Realm.
"ROARRRR!" White-eye howled in rage, in an extremely depressed manner. He actually failed to capture Qin Wentian alive.
At this moment, someone questioned, "Although his combat prowess is extraordinary, he is still suppressed by White-eye to this extent. Can such a person really win a battle against Li Yufeng?"
