Chapter 729: Chapter 679: Unexpected Results
But times have changed.
Today’s Wu Shijiu is not the same as yesterday’s, he doesn’t have to submit, or suppress his anger anymore.
Wu Shijiu, who facilitated the cooperation between the Great Ming Divine Dynasty and Pei Xuanjing and the Witch Deity Teaching, has already received the resources promised by the Witch God Sect Leader, those things that enhance breakthroughs to the Nine Realms of Spirit, the realm of the strongest.
For him, the view to the realm of the strongest is no longer as unreachable and unattainable as before, therefore he will not tolerate this humiliation. Once he has enough time to digest everything, he will exact his revenge.
For whatever Wu Shijiu is thinking, everyone else is completely unaware. However, even if Pei Xuanjing and Zhu Houji knew about it, they wouldn’t be too concerned.
After all, everyone is from the same faction, but in actuality, they are collaborators, with no hierarchical relationship. Wu Shijiu is not under their jurisdiction; his actions are not restricted by them.
Although Zhu Houji sensed Wu Shijiu’s anger, he didn’t think too much of it. It was better to focus on Wang Bo’an’s move next.
Wang Bo’an, a man who usually stays low-key and never departs from the border, attracted everyone’s attention. After all, he was one of the only two cultivators in the ancestral land who had reached the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm or higher.
Everyone has clearly seen the strength of Pei Xuanjing, a strong man who eclipses the world and makes all the powerhouses bow their heads.
So, as the second strongest man in the ancestral land, there was much curiosity about how powerful he truly was. Everyone wanted to see the true strength of Wang Bo’an.
Even a lion uses its full power when hunting a rabbit.
After suffering three defeats at the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm, the powerful cultivators of the Sky Wasteland no longer dare to underestimate the cultivators of the ancestral land. So, even though they have a temporary advantage in the first battle of the Spirit Realm Eightfold, they will not be complacent.
Therefore, Wang Bo’an’s opponent is not an ordinary cultivator. He is a powerful person who has reached the Spirit Realm Eightfold, the younger brother of Great River ancient country’s ruler, the first king of Great River ancient country, King Yuan, Ying Yuan.
As one of the few cultivators in the Spirit Realm Eightfold in the Great River ancient country, Prince Yuan’s strength is not to be underestimated. He might fall short of the old ruler and ancestor of Great River ancient country but among the many cultivators of the same realm in Sky Wasteland, he is a standout.
In many people’s eyes, this match was almost certain to be won. Even if Wang Bo’an is so powerful, a cultivator at the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm may be able to defeat an ordinary cultivator at the Spirit Realm Eightfold, but when facing a strong person like Ying Yuan, he may be overpowered.
Can there be another Pei Xuanjing from the ancestral land?
This was the dismissive attitude of many strong persons.
The appearance of Pei Xuanjing seriously subverted many people’s perceptions and attitudes, making them treat the cultivators of the ancestral land with caution, and dare not underestimate them.
But that’s it, after innumerable generations, the ancestral land has been dormant for thousands of ages, and now the world has revived, Qi Luck has deepened, and the appearance of a standout like Pei Xuanjing can be explained.
But if there is another Pei Xuanjing, whom is Wang Bo’an, it would really be a joke to all. Therefore, everyone thinks that Wang Bo’an might perform well in this battle, but the final result will not be any different.
But don’t forget, sometimes, reality is cruel and helpless.
After Wang Bo’an and Prince Yuan finished their moves, there was silence. Whether it were ordinary cultivators, the powerful figures seated on the cloud platforms or the many strongest figures, their faces were complex and none of them spoke for a long time.
Silence, silence like death.
It’s hard to imagine that in a place where countless cultivators gather, there would be a moment of such silence when even the wind seemed to stop.
Wang Bo’an won!
Or to say, King Yuan lost!
This situation was something that everyone had not anticipated.
No, or perhaps among all the people present, only one person expected this situation: Pei Xuanjing.
The confrontation between these two was indeed as they initially predicted. It was a groundbreaking battle, with each displaying their divine powers in their continuous attacks, which showed their strengths.
But the result differed from what the cultivators expected and did not align with their understanding.
After all, in their view, no matter how excellent Wang Bo’an performed, he would still be defeated by King Yuan in the end.
But now, King Yuan was defeated by a cultivator at the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm. This was unimaginable for many people.
Even many strong persons frowned slightly, which meant their plans had failed. The first two battles at the Spirit Realm Eightfold had a win and a loss, and the sides were again at a stalemate.
In this case, even if they win the third battle, the final result will still be decided by the confrontation of the strongest.
This is very bad!
Even considering that their real bodies did not come, and Pei Xuanjing agreed to confront them with their incarnations, they still did not want to face this situation.
However, no matter what, the current situation is what it is. What they need to do now is to go all out to win the next match; otherwise, everything will be irreversible.
It is quite clear who will fight on behalf of Pei Xuanjing’s side: it is undoubtedly the last remaining person, the present Emperor of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, Zhu Houji.
Everyone is looking forward to this first ruler of the Divine Dynasty in thousands of years, they are eager to know the true strength of the Emperor.
Therefore, these strongest characters, after discussing, surprisingly dispatched a dominant figure from the Spirit Realm Eightfold, a vice leader of the Blood Fiend Sect.
In the Demonic Way, the strong are respected. The leader of the Blood Fiend Sect is personally in charge of the Blood Fiend Ancestor. A person who can become the vice head of the Blood-red Demon Sect has a power that is no less than those of the old ancestors of the ancient country. They belong to the genuinely strong characters of the Spirit Realm Eightfold’s fourth stage, the kind of strongmen who are beginning to gaze into the Strongest Realm.
The stake of such a powerful person in the match implies how crucial this match is to the powerhouses of the Sky Wasteland. They have abandoned their face in order to win this battle.
“Such a strong person, he really regards me highly.” Zhu Houji thought to himself.
However, when facing such a strong opponent, he had no intention of retreating, and he was extremely confident that he could win.
“Since that’s the case, then let me show you the power of a true powerhouse, and let me see whether I, even without Master Pei’s protection, still have the right to stand tall in the world,” Zhu Houji said to himself.
