Chapter 615: 615

Chapter 615 - Arts Against Arts, Skills Against Skills

The demon gods’ faces stiffened up, and the ambiance grew suffocating . Zhong Yue had merely just raised a finger to kill Chan Fangzhen; such prowess was already within the realm of gods!

What would become of the competition if a demon god were one of the participants?

Although Shi Buyi was shocked as well, it was not surprising at all . It took them four years to arrive here from the Ancestral Star, and during these four years, Zhong Yue didn’t waste even a single second .

Achieving the Imminent Deity level was beyond guaranteed for him, but he had been suppressing his cultivation base because he had no intention of ascending into the next level without cultivating the Innate True Soul .

He was literally just a step away from achieving the Innate True Soul, but there seemed to be an invisible barrier coming from the heaven and earth that stopped him from achieving it .

However, there was no doubt that he was already in the domain of the gods as he had clearly demonstrated the qualities of a god—cutting through space .

The ability to cut through space was a clear line that divided the Qi Practitioners and gods .

Demigods could break into the void but couldn’t cut through it . For example, Zhong Yue had pulled out a godly spirit from the space rift in the Divine Battlefield .

Whereas the ability to break into the void and cut out through another end could only be achieved by the gods!

Hence, it was evident to the demon gods that Zhong Yue had the prowess of a god!

“Shi Buyi, is he really your disciple?” Chan Dongyuan’s face turned gloomy as he said frigidly, “He is not weaker than you at all!”

Shi Buyi felt helpless deep in his heart but maintained his calm expression as he answered, “It’s fairly common for the disciple to surpass his teacher, is it not?”

“A True Spirit Qi Practitioner who possessed godlike powers, even the Sun Moon Twin Spirits couldn’t have done it! Such a talent, do you think I will believe that you are the one that taught him?”

Shi Buyi’s face quickly turned solemn, “He is really my disciple, I can swear to the Realm Lord! If I’m lying, I will never be able to reborn for eternity!”

The demon gods were moved by his bold oath before soon commenting, “If he dares to make such a grave vow, then he must be telling the truth!”

Indeed, Shi Buyi was not lying at all . Zhong Yue had personally picked up the identity of Long Yue early on and was taken in as Shi Buyi’s closed-door disciple . It was only after he cultivated the【Mystic Duplication Technique】that he created a dragon incarnation to take over as Long Yue .

Either way, it was no lie that Zhong Yue was his disciple, which was why he even dared to make such a vow in the first place .

“He is strong enough to be in the top ten . ” An old demon god said in a quivering voice, “Seems like our Little Friend Shi Buyi here is going to win . ”

What? Master Zhong’s godlike power is not even the strongest?

Shi Buyi was shocked and he exclaimed, “Are there still cultivators stronger than him?”

“Without doubt . ” The same old demon god replied, “The Left Fang Galaxy has many talented Qi Practitioners as well . The strongest and most talented one is Li Tianxing . Other than him, there is also a reincarnated demon emperor, the Reverse Emperor, who had reaped an uncountable number of lives . Even the Realm Lord treats him as an equal . He only reincarnated because his life was running out . Emerald Heaven Dharma King even said that he is strong enough to compete with the other Six Paths Worlds’ experts . ”

Shi Buyi’s heart tensed up .

“There is also a pair of twins, Bi and An, they had already reincarnated nine times . ” The old god lowered his head and continued, “These two are really incredible, every time they reincarnate, they will always be reborn as a pair of twins . They might be a greater force altering their fate so that they are always reborn as twins . Even the Emerald Heaven Dharma King has shown incredible favor toward them; he once drunkenly said that they are possibly two strong gods from a higher world that descended onto the lower realms to experience a hundred lives . An ancient ritual known as the Renascence Within A Hundred Tribulations . Every reincarnation was a new round of tribulation . As for who this pair exactly are, and what kind of cultivation they possess . . . even the Dharma King doesn’t dare to think guess . ”

Shi Buyi was even more shocked .

On the other hand, a demon god said, “Other than them, there is also the Emerald Heaven Dharma King’s most treasured son, Prince Shi Yun . Although he is the reincarnated crown prince, Emerald Heaven Dharma King still took him as his son, showering him with unlimited resources . The other nine experts might fall out from the list of top ten, but Prince Shi Yun will definitely be on the list!”

“Also, there is a lady, Zhen Yao . She was said to be an undying existence whose soul has been tumbling in the Six Paths Reincarnations for over 50 thousand years . ”

“Then, there is also a consort to the Realm Monarch who was banished to the Prison Realm . Hehe, this alluring Consort Han belongs to the Realm Monarch, no one dares to touch her . Furthermore, no one knows if this was a chance that the Realm Monarch created to free her from the Prison Realm . ”

The more Shi Buyi learned, the more shocked he became . A few moments later, he gave a cold sneer and criticized, “Seven out of the ten slots are taken up, doesn’t that mean our disciples are all just fighting for only three slots?”

“It’s already good enough to have three slots . We are weak and can do nothing other than accept it . ” The old god replied, “I heard that some of the other galaxies have their ten slots decided even before the competition . Making the competition to be nothing but just an exhibition event! Furthermore, the candidates of the seven slots are all powerful themselves . ”

Shi Buyi’s face grew anxious and he thought, “Oh no, Master Zhong is surely in the top ten, but Jun Sixie, Bai Canghai and the others are not that strong . If he wants to let them all enter the top ten, he will surely have to clash with the seven experts!”

On the bluish planet, Jun Sixie, Qiu Jin’er and Bai Canghai hovered in mid-air while glancing at the surrounding .

Three suns hung high in the sky, scorching the land . But the heat was in a bearable range that there were still plants growing in the planet .

However, it was still a barren place with no signs of any civilization .

“The spiritual energy in here is so dense!” Qiu Jin’er tried to draw upon the power of heaven and earth, and immediately, she could feel her power growing exponentially . She exclaimed, “Why did the demon gods say the spiritual energy in the Prison Realm is faint? Isn’t the spiritual energy here much stronger than the Ancestral Star?”

She had the Innate Wood Spirit Body, and her sensitivity to spiritual energy was far greater than others’ . The more abundant the spiritual energy around her, the stronger she would get .

Whereas Jun Sixie and Bai Canghai also felt the thick spiritual energy around them, they also had the same questions in their mind like Qiu Jin’er .

Zhong Yue mulled and said, “The Ancestral Star is also known as the waste star, it seems like not only that, but its Six Paths Reincarnations is also incomplete . The spiritual energy is also weaker, in turn causing our skills to be impaired . But in here, our skills will be able to be fully unleashed, and when we arrive at the Zi Wei Galaxy, they will grow even stronger!”

“Then, the Qi Practitioners of the Ancestral Star and Prison realm, who will be stronger?” Bai Canghai thought and asked, “The Prison Realm has a complete cultivation heritage, the various ways to open the extreme states, the complete Six Paths Reincarnations, and they can even undergo rebirth whenever they like . These are all conditions the Ancestral Star Qi Practitioners never had . The disparity is huge, it is very unlikely we will be able to win . ”

Rays flashed across Zhong Yue’s eyes as he raised a different opinion, “It takes hardship to forge a strength . Although the conditions on the Ancestral Star is much harder, it served to temper us . Furthermore, if we could cultivate to this stage in spite of such harsh conditions, then it is already solid evidence that we are stronger than them! Jin’er, Senior Martial Brother Bai, don’t hold back when battling with your opponents! Your training starts here and now!”

There were already battles going all around the planet . The Qi Practitioners that could enter the competition were all elite cultivators with incredible strength . The aftermath of a single battle could reverberate through a thousand miles, it was impossible to keep things low-key . As long as there was a battle, it would surely alert those around .

When Zhong Yue and the others arrived at the closest battlefield around them, the battle had long ceased . The winner was smart as well as he had left right away after he won the battle, flashing away like a red light .

Bai Canghai intended to chase after, but Jun Sixie suddenly shook her head, “There is no point in chasing after him, we will just wait here . ”

“Wait?” Bai Canghai startled for a second, and immediately understood her meaning .

The battle would not only attract their attention, but the other Qi Practitioners around will also come over . Instead of chasing after the winner, it would be more efficient if they stopped here and waited for the other Qi Practitioners to come .

Right in the next second, a huge patch of shadow covered them as a ten thousand feet tall giant crashed down from the sky like a meteor . It was a Qi Practitioner who was using the power of heaven and earth to enlarge his Avatar . That Qi Practitioner then struck out a palm at them!

“What a marvelous skill!” Jun Sixie’s and the others’ eyes brightened up as they look at the Qi Practitioner’s palm . Totem patterns formed around his fingers and palm in different shapes and sizes; clouds, dragons, snakes, and mountains were only some of the many forms the patterns took!

In that one palm strike was contained over a thousand skills!

“A True Spirit magnate, Brother Bai, I’ll leave him to you . ” Zhong Yue pulled Jun Sixie and Qiu Jin’er back to evade the palm strike’s zone while leaving Bai Canghai on the spot .

Bai Canghai instantly hollered, “Brother Zhong, the Bai Zhe Clan are no masters of battles!”

However, Zhong Yue smiled and said, “The Bai Zhe Clan’s【Million God Ice Saint Art】is an incredible art, don’t tell me you did not cultivate it! In addition to your Pure Yin Yuan Shen, you are no weaker than anyone else here!”

Immediately, Bai Canghai’s eyes flashed; the【Million God Ice Saint Art】was Lord Bai’s cultivation technique that Zhong Yue had used as the base to create his own【Mystical Infinite Transformation】, another incredible art that alowed him to morph into any race . However, while the【Mystical Infinite Transformation】granted one the ability to change form, the【Million God Ice Saint Art】was created with only one purpose—to act as a counter to every arts and skills in the world!

The【Million God Ice Saint Art】was said to be the ultimate counter art!

In the Ancestral Star, Bai Canghai’s name may not evoke the same emotions as Zhong Yue’s or Jun Sixie’s, but he was, without doubt, an exceptional cultivator in his own right!

Unfortunately, the superstition surrounding him had overridden any other impression that others had of him!

Bai Canghai yelled, and the Yin God True Spirit emerged behind him, spreading its wings out and rushing for the incoming palm while lashing out skills like a river stream!

As the two clashed together, ice started to form in mid-air, and the Prison Realm Qi Practitioner’s skills were frozen within the ice . The sun shone on the ice and reflected lights out into the surrounding!

It was truly stunning!

Right after, the Yin God behind Bai Canghai turned into a huge snake and blasted out a wave of black smoke at the Prison Realm Qi Practitioner!
