Chapter 702 683: Decisive Battle at Tower 76

Time flew by. Little Snake-tailed Flower finally stabilized its new abilities. Even without taking root, it could unleash immense power—about eighty percent of its rooted strength. If it went all out, it could use its terrifying ultimate move, the Thorny Crown. The vast majority of Fifth Transformation True Essence Beasts would be instantly annihilated by this attack. Keep in mind, Little Flower was still only at the Third Transformation, yet its all-out strength already far surpassed most Fifth Transformation True Essence Beasts.

In the morning, Wang Meng kicked Old Horse. "Can't you eat a meat bun without spitting out the wrapper?"

"Then you should just make the wrapper out of meat..." Old Horse retorted, as if it made perfect sense.

"Then just eat meatballs."

"But meatballs aren't buns." Old Horse sounded aggrieved. It really loved the taste of buns; it just didn't like the wrapper.

"And you still steal them!"

Wang Meng sent another kick flying.

"ROAR!"

Old Horse finally snapped. Seeing how powerful Wang Meng's kick was, it couldn't take it anymore. Getting beaten up like this all the time... Did he really think it was a gentle horse anyone could ride?

Wang Meng smiled. He had thought Old Horse would never fight back anymore. "Good, bring it on."

Wang Meng struck out with his palm.

BOOM.

A clash of brute force.

Neither man nor horse moved an inch.

However... Old Horse was shocked.

"You healed way too fast! Your recovery speed is almost on par with an old beast's."

The "old beast" Old Horse mentioned referred to a Nine-Transformation beast. In this regard, it was difficult for Human Cultivators to compare with the powerful physiques of True Essence Beasts.

"Heh, I was fully healed yesterday."

For a few breaths, Old Horse was happy for Wang Meng. Then its eyes widened in fury. "You were healed yesterday? Then... then you still hit me yesterday!"

It wasn't about the hitting. The key thing was that Old Horse hadn't fought back at all, not even with words, because it thought Wang Meng was seriously injured. This was too much, way too much!

"Let's not dwell on the past. We should look to the future. By the way, Old Horse, interested in a trip to the Divine Space?"

"Nope. That's you humans' territory..." Old Horse stopped mid-sentence, trotted to the side, and went back to eating its buns. Hmm, it had finally learned to eat them without spitting out the wrapper. After that clash just now, it had discovered something that left it feeling helpless: Wang Meng's strength had broken through again. That guy was a complete monster.

Wang Meng smiled and dropped the subject. He walked into his room and unwrapped the Magic Bandages from his body...

He had just finished when he heard Zuojing walk in, saying, "Young Master, it's time to change your dressi—Ah!"

Zuojing's face turned bright red as she lowered her head. "Y-Y-Y-Young... Master, I... I..."

She had seen something she shouldn't have. That... part of him was very fierce... A strange feeling stirred within her...

Wang Meng got dressed while asking, "No need to change dressings today. By the way, how are the preparations I asked you to make coming along?"

Zuojing kept her head down, her mind a complete mess. 'Actually, I don't really get it. Young Master obviously could have... so why hasn't he touched any of us after all these days? I mean, it's a good thing for us, but it's just so strange.'

"Hm?"

"Ah, we've made inquiries, but the rent is all very expensive."

Wang Meng nodded. "I'll handle it then. You all just worry about picking a location."

After bringing the five little ones, who had eaten and drunk their fill, into the Spirit Containing Bracelet, he put on the Golden Wolf Mask and entered the Divine Space.

Today was the day of his arranged battle with the Reincarnation Immortal Venerable. Master Wang stretched his body, producing a series of cracking sounds. 'Looks like I'm in pretty good shape. I've gotten a little rusty from resting these past few days. This is a good chance to loosen up.'

In the Divine Space, a lively crowd had gathered before the Divine Sealing Tower. Several thousand Cultivators were clustered outside, and that was just the ones on the ground. Many had already teamed up and entered the seventy-sixth layer ahead of time.

The battle between Golden Wolf and the Reincarnation Immortal Venerable was just a topic of casual conversation for ordinary Cultivators. But for experts at the Celestial Wheel Realm and above, it was an extremely rare opportunity.

Needless to say, the Reincarnation Immortal Venerable, Wan Wuchang, was the Leader of the Seven Extremes. His fame was resounding. He was the Controller of Yin-Yang Power, and the Yin Yang Space from the seventieth to the eightieth layers of the Divine Sealing Tower was his home ground, where he had forged his invincible reputation.

As for Golden Wolf... As the saying goes, experts are bold. How could he dare to take on such a task without the skill to back it up? Moreover, according to news from the Pill Immortal Alliance, Golden Wolf's Fate Grid was at least 10,000. Most importantly, considering who the Reincarnation Immortal Venerable was, the fact that he had accepted the challenge meant his opponent possessed the strength to fight him. To be honest, even before the battle, Golden Wolf's reputation was already made.

"I wonder what realm this Golden Wolf is at. He dares to offend the White Bone Sect and challenge the Reincarnation Immortal Venerable, the Leader of the Seven Extremes. Tsk tsk, how have we never heard of him before?"

"A hidden dragon lurks in the abyss. In the vast sea of Cultivators, not every expert can become world-famous. If it weren't for this, do you think Golden Wolf would have made a name for himself?"

"That's true. Even if he dies in battle, it will have been worth it."

Discussions raged outside the Divine Sealing Tower.

Just then, a commotion erupted in the crowd. If you had to say which dynasty was the most powerful on the entire continent, it was without a doubt the Great Zhou. And the Great Zhou Eight Saints were known by all.

"Look, isn't that Fairy Han Chuxue coming over?"

"Where! Where! It really is her! This... all of the Great Zhou Eight Saints are here."

Beside Han Chuxue were Meng Ningzhi, Zhang Yang, Ni Yong, Yanl Luoqi, and the other three—a rare gathering of all Eight Saints.

Without a doubt, the Eight Saints were the center of attention wherever they went. Their profound backgrounds, extraordinary talent, age, appearance, and demeanor made them stand out from the crowd.

They even stole the limelight from some Godbound Realm masters.

This was especially true for Han Chuxue, who stood out like a crane among chickens even among the eight of them. As she drew closer, the crowd was nearly suffocated by her beauty.

Meng Ningzhi wasn't jealous. The charm of the Celestial Spirit Race was incomparable; even she felt a sense of admiration. As for the other men, it went without saying. It was an innate charm, and most importantly, Han Chuxue didn't do it on purpose—it was something she couldn't control.

That was precisely why everyone liked her even more.

The crowd was quite large, so Yuan Juhuo and the other five men quickly formed an arc, keeping Han Chuxue and Meng Ningzhi in the center.

They directly chose Tower 76. Cultivators whose Cultivation was insufficient could only wait outside for the results. After all, the Power of Reincarnation was not pleasant to endure. A single moment of carelessness could lead to a huge drop in one's Cultivation, or even death.

Those at the Celestial Wheel Realm wouldn't dare enter without a special Magical Artifact for protection, but this was clearly not a problem for these eight.

Zhang Yang took the lead, unable to hold back his eagerness. He was the only one among them who hoped Golden Wolf could pull off an upset.

Of course, it was just a hope.

The eight of them disappeared in a flash of light, entering Tower 76. Inside, there were already quite a few Cultivators. These were, without a doubt, the elites of the Divine Space, and they had come for the Reincarnation Immortal Venerable.

At the level of the Seven Extremes, every battle was a demonstration of the Celestial Dao. Everyone now just hoped that this Golden Wolf wasn't too weak. The longer he held out, the more they would get to see.

Outside, the eight of them were endlessly glorious, but in here, while they drew some attention, it was only a few faint glances. Most of those were likely still focused on Han Chuxue's and Meng Ningzhi's beauty.

Here, what Cultivators paid attention to was power.

The moment they stepped into Tower 76, the Yin Yang Reincarnation Power immediately surged toward them. Their Cultivation levels, after all, couldn't compare to the Divinity Transformation Realm. They immediately mobilized their True Essence. Ni Yong didn't hesitate, forming a spell sign and casting Qiankun Daluo Holy Protection.

This gray and white world was saturated with killing intent. Even with protection, they couldn't afford to be careless.

Han Chuxue extended her right hand and lifted it toward the void. A brilliant Holy Light descended from the heavens.

—Dawn Condensing Radiance Technique.

In this space that suppressed the Five Elements, Han Chuxue seemed completely unaffected. The others immediately felt much more comfortable, and the pressure on their True Essence gradually lessened.

The moment Han Chuxue acted, she immediately drew the attention of several powerful experts, who fixed their gazes on the celestial-looking young woman.

Being able to use Magic so freely here was proof of her Cultivation. Someone like Ni Yong was already quite good, but it was clear he was straining.

Outside, it was like a viewing party for the Cultivators. Masters continued to enter one after another. Of course, it was almost certain that members of the Seven Extremes would show up, such as the mysterious and unpredictable White Bone Sect Leader and the Netherworld Sect Leader. It was just that no one knew their true identities, so even if they had already arrived, no one would know.

However, dozens of renowned Cultivators who had roamed the Divine Space in recent years had already arrived.

Before long, a gasp rippled through the crowd, and the atmosphere immediately turned solemn. No one dared to make a sound.

An old man and a young girl walked over. The girl seemed especially lively and anxious.

"Old Fire, hurry up! The good show is about to start, let's not be late."

To be honest, the Three Immortals and the Five Emperors were in a league of their own; the Seven Extremes were a tier below. The Fire Emperor had some interest in a battle like this, but it was at a level where he could take it or leave it. However, Ji Jin'Er was interested and insisted on coming, so she had dragged him along.

The Fire Emperor's status was special, but he doted on the young girl. He knew Ji Jin'Er's temperament, which was why he indulged her antics. It was clear that even Ji Xuanyuan couldn't do anything about her. The Emperor of Great Zhou had to show some respect to a transcendent master like the Fire Emperor. Besides, with the Fire Emperor looking after her, her safety was guaranteed.

All the Cultivators bowed respectfully. This was the respect due to those at the level of the Three Immortals and Five Emperors.

Ji Jin'Er was clearly delighted, seeing this as a friendly spar. But the Fire Emperor knew that battles like this were actually fights to the death. A match between him and the Water Emperor, for instance, would only be a spar if it was held outside. Here, there was no turning back.

He didn't actually want Ji Jin'Er to witness such a scene, but she had to face the realities of growing up eventually.

With a sweep of his gaze, the Fire Emperor and the girl vanished and reappeared in Tower 76.

The oncoming Power of Reincarnation rushed toward them, but it vanished completely within a ten-meter radius of the Fire Emperor. Ji Jin'Er was still cheerful, waving to her Brother Huang in the distance.

The Eight Saints also bowed respectfully to the Fire Emperor. Yuan Gang nodded and led Ji Jin'Er deeper inside.

The Yin Yang Reincarnation Power in Tower 76 was tyrannical, but power levels were ultimately determined by relative strength. The Fire Emperor's Five Elements Flame had reached the absolute peak, so he clearly had no fear of such a threat.

But one also had to admit that in this environment, the Reincarnation Immortal Venerable could unleash the full potential of his Yin Yang Extinction Technique.
