Wang Qian was also very excited. However, her gaze as she looked at Mo Wen was somewhat complicated. She felt very emotional. Who would have thought that Mo Wen, whom she had looked down on and thought only knew how to drag Wan 'er down, would be such a figure? Now that she thought about it, she sighed. If Wan' er had not been kind and saved him back to the sect, they most likely would not have had the right to appear here and would not have been valued by the sect.
Wang Qian's fate had changed because of this youth. She had merely benefited from Wan 'er. If she was like this, what about Wan 'er?
"I did not expect him to be so powerful. It has only been a few months. How did he do it?"
In one corner of the spectator stands, a woman shrouded in Holy Light was sitting quietly. This woman had long golden hair and dark blue eyes that looked like a boundless, pure ocean. She was none other than Stunning Snow from the Gods Alliance. Beside her stood a Temple Knight who had been guarding her all this while.
"Your Highness, it is fortunate that you did not wager a battle with him back then. He is too powerful. Your Heavenly God Ritual has not been completed. I'm afraid you are no match for him."
A look of relief flashed in the young knight's eyes. Although Highness Stunning Snow was the darling of the Gods Alliance, she had not fully matured yet. She might not be a match for Mo Wen. He knew that his own abilities were not low. Ordinary Martial Arts Grandmasters were no match for him. However, compared to Mo Wen, the difference was too great.
"Why would I wager myself with him? Even if my abilities are stronger than his, such a thing would not have happened. I am not that crazy woman, Yao Yu. She does as she pleases. Even if she loses, she might not keep her promise. However, I am different. As a clergyman of the Gods Alliance, keeping promises is the most basic virtue, "Stunning Snow said plainly.
Stunning Snow said calmly. Because she valued promises, she would not easily make promises or casually set up bets. That woman, Yao Yu, did as she pleased and was fearless. However, Stunning Snow was certain that even if Mo Wen defeated Yao Yu, as long as Yao Yu was not willing, Stunning Snow would not keep her promise.
Moreover, it was also impossible for Mo Wen to defeat Yao Yu. She knew very well that among the youths of Hua Xia, there was most likely no one who could defeat Yao Yu. Even if she completely inherited the Heavenly God Ritual, she might not be able to defeat Yao Yu.
…
In challenge ring number one, Xin Wuji was severely injured, but he did not fall. He thought that the person controlling his body was not him. As long as his body was not completely destroyed, the Day Scorpion Familiar could still control this body. Otherwise, with Xin Wuji's weak body, the blow just now would have been enough to make him unable to get up again.
"Lord Shikigami, I'm heavily injured. Will I die?"
Xin Wuji shouted in his heart. He was extremely terrified. In a battle between two pinnacle powerhouses, even the slightest leakage of power would be a devastating blow to him. He knew his own limits. No matter what, he could not withstand Mo Wen's power.
"Don't worry, I won't die yet. If you're dead, what the hell am I going to do?"
The Day Scorpion Familiar said impatiently. Right now, Xin Wuji's body was indeed very bad, but it had not reached the point of death. If Xin Wuji's body died, then the Day Scorpion Familiar's efforts would be in vain. He could not possibly control a dead person to battle Mo Wen.
"Kid, I'll give you one last chance. Admit defeat immediately, or don't blame me for being ruthless."
The Day Scorpion Familiar looked at Mo Wen with a cold gaze. How could he be happy when a roadblock appeared out of nowhere? Also, this roadblock restrained him in every way, causing him to be unable to unleash his remarkable powers. It was truly frustrating.
"I'll return what you just said to me. If you give up now, you might be able to get second place. Otherwise …"
Mo Wen laughed coldly. His meaning was obvious. If they continued to fight, Xin Wuji could forget about getting second place. After a round of battle, Mo Wen already knew Xin Wuji's weakness. Xin Wuji's body was too weak and could not withstand the impact of Mo Wen's power at all. If Mo Wen found an opportunity, he would most likely be able to destroy Xin Wuji with a casual punch.
"You're seeking death."
The Day Scorpion Familiar did not expect that Mo Wen would actually dare to turn around and say such words to him. He was a sacred level strong practitioner and one of the top ten sacred level strong practitioners in Fu Sang Country. He was used to having power in Fu Sang Country. How could he tolerate a junior being arrogant in front of him?
"Since that is the case, then don't blame me."
A ruthless look flashed in the Day Scorpion Familiar's eyes. Initially, he did not want to unleash too much sacred level power. That would be easily discovered. But now, he had no other choice. If he did not unleash some techniques, he would definitely not be able to keep first place.
With Xin Wuji's body, it was already impossible for him to win against Mo Wen. The only thing that could help him turn defeat into victory was the powerful power that only sacred levels could control.
Suddenly, the aura on Xin Wuji's body became extremely mysterious. The aura seemed to have merged with the entire heaven and earth, and Xin Wuji's entire being seemed to have merged with the heaven and earth.
A circle of orange-red flames gradually appeared in front of Xin Wuji. At first, the flames were only the size of a fist. But the next moment, the entire Power of Heaven and Earth in the sky above the Divine Dragon Nest suddenly surged towards the mass of flames. After the flame absorbed a large amount of the Power of Heaven and Earth, it slowly grew.
Beams of mysterious aura floated out from the mass of flames. There were actually mysterious marks in the flames. They seemed to be runes and patterns. It was as though the changes in the heaven and earth were contained in those patterns.
After the flame grew to the size of a washbasin, it stopped growing. However, as it continued to devour the Power of Heaven and Earth, the flame became brighter and brighter, like the stars in the sky.
Mo Wen did not feel any heat from the mass of flames, but the entire Glacier Domain was mysteriously melting. The ice mountains collapsed and tottered. The entire Glacier Domain seemed to be unable to hold on for much longer.
"The fledging stage of profound meaning!"
A look of disbelief flashed in Mo Wen's eyes. Xin Wuji had actually comprehended the power of the fledging stage of profound meaning. That was the symbol of an Infinite Powerhouse!
Generally speaking, some ancient martial art practitioners who had comprehended the path of profound meaning and had a high enough cultivation could be called Infinite Powerhouse. If one comprehended the fledging stage of profound meaning, they were almost 100% sure that they were Infinite Powerhouses.
It was very difficult to comprehend a complete profound meaning. It was almost impossible for ancient martial art practitioners who had not become immortal. Even some ancient martial art practitioners who had become immortal would only be able to grasp the power of the fledging stage of profound meaning. After many years of comprehension, they would gradually grasp a complete profound meaning.
"The fledging stage of profound meaning for fire! An Infinite Powerhouse! "
Water Deity, Wine and Meat Monk, and the other geniuses of the hidden martial arts strain immediately stood up. Their eyes were filled with shock. The fledging stage of profound meaning. Xin Wuji had actually comprehended the fledging stage of profound meaning! Didn't that mean that Xin Wuji was an Infinite Powerhouse?
No one had expected that Xin Wuji was actually an Infinite Powerhouse. Their expressions were somewhat ugly. When Xin Wuji fought with them just now, not only did he not unleash his full power, but he most likely did not even unleash one-fifth of his power. Otherwise, an Infinite Powerhouse would be able to defeat them with a wave of his hand.
"An Infinite Powerhouse!"
Lin Qing also exclaimed. Xin Wuji had actually reached the level of an Infinite Powerhouse. Even her master was most likely only at this level. Also, her master seemed to have only comprehended the path of profound meaning and had yet to comprehend the fledging stage of profound meaning.
Chu Yunli, who was standing beside Lin Qing, frowned slightly. Even if she encountered an Infinite Powerhouse who had comprehended the fledging stage of profound meaning, it would be difficult to say whether she would win or lose. Xin Wuji had actually hidden his strength so deeply. Also, he had reached the level of an Infinite Powerhouse at such a young age. Among the young geniuses of the entire hidden martial arts strain, only two people had reached this level. Whose disciple was he?
In the Divine Dragon Nest, many members of the hidden martial arts strain immediately found out about Xin Wuji's background. An Infinite Powerhouse, even in the hidden martial arts strain, was not simple. Not all the sects in the hidden martial arts strain had absolute powerhouses who had become immortals. Some sects only had ultimate powerhouses who were Infinite Powerhouses. An Infinite Powerhouse in the hidden martial arts strain was an important figure.
"He couldn't help but unleash the power of profound meaning, huh? He is quite smart to know that he only unleashed the fledging stage of profound meaning. If he had unleashed a complete profound meaning, he would most likely have been exposed immediately," Mo Qingtian said plainly.
Mo Wen had clearly forced that person to his limit. Otherwise, he would not have unleashed the power of profound meaning to deal with him.
"Tian 'er, you are mistaken. That person's comprehension of the esoteric rule for fire is most likely only at the fledging stage. His main cultivation is probably not the esoteric rule for fire. Otherwise, it would be rather difficult for him to master the complete esoteric rule for fire and then unleash it at a lower level. Even an ordinary Primordial Soul Realm cultivator would not be able to do it, "Mo Qingge said expressionlessly.
Those immortal cultivators in the Primordial Soul Realm or ancient martial art practitioners who had become immortals all had their own esoteric rules that they mainly cultivated. However, some people would also cultivate other esoteric rules aside from their main esoteric rules. For example, the fledging stage of profound meaning for fire was that person's esoteric rule. Even strong practitioners in the Primordial Soul Realm were not omnipotent. Most of the esoteric rules that they cultivated were only at the fledging stage of profound meaning. Some were even lower and were only at the path of profundity. After all, those who could master a few complete esoteric rules at the Primordial Soul Realm were rare. They could be said to be geniuses among the cultivators of this level.
"Mo Wen will most likely not be able to withstand it. The power of the fledging stage of profound meaning is at the limit of mortals. He is still quite a distance away from this realm. However, with his current ability, it should not be a problem for him to take first place on the Heaven List."
Mo Qingtian shook his head. Since that person was willing to take the risk to unleash the fledging stage of profound meaning, it was almost impossible for Mo Wen to defeat him.
"Get ready to make your move," Mo Qingge said lightly.
…
Genta and Xin Yichuan had grave expressions on their faces. They were even a little nervous.
They both knew that the more power the Day Scorpion Familiar unleashed, the more likely it was that he would be exposed. Once he was exposed, the consequences would be unthinkable.
"That damned Mo Wen. Will he die if he doesn't fight for first place?"
Genta was furious. If it wasn't for this person, so many things would not have happened. He had actually forced the Day Scorpion Familiar to such an extent.
Xin Yichuan looked at Genta. His lips moved a little, but he did not say anything in the end. He really wanted to say, "Will you die if you don't fight for first place?" Since Mo Wen was so hard to deal with, he could fight for second place. The three strong practitioners of the hidden martial arts strain had all been defeated by Xin Wuji. There was almost no obstacle for him to fight for second place.
Was it worth it to take such a huge risk to fight for first place? Once something went wrong, he knew very well how tragic his outcome would be. (To be continued.)
