A Wager, the Undying Asura

"You little rascal, you're truly remarkable! She's already matched my Heavenly Lake's past achievements."

Above the distant mountains.

Looking at the duel in the distance, which had already been decided, Heavenly Lake Holy Lord Mu Tianji couldn't help but sigh.

Chen Ning remained unmoved.

More than Hua Luo's victory over her opponent, he was shocked by the words spoken by the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord.

I noticed the word "we" in the other person's words earlier.

Upon further questioning...

The Heavenly Lake Holy Lord readily gave his answer.

Even though that person had some suspicions, Chen Ning was still incredibly shocked when he actually found out.

That man was none other than the former sect leader.

The eighth-generation leader of the Dragon-Seeking Sect who regained his original form four years ago.

Chen Ning doesn't even know if he's alive or dead.

But he probably harbors a shocking secret.

I had previously learned from Elder Lin Yuan that the old sect leader was acquainted with the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord.

They even traveled together to Central Province.

But this also unfolds a mystery.

Chen Ning didn't quite understand why the former sect leader and the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord had such high expectations for his growth.

Is he hoping for himself, or for the original body that he has usurped?

Or is even time travel predetermined?

In short, Chen Ning's mind was in a bit of a mess.

There are so many threads, it's impossible to connect them perfectly.

These questions still need to be answered by the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord.

However, the other party showed no intention of providing an answer.

Instead, they started watching the duels on the fighting stage.

Chen Ning simply calmed down and watched the upcoming duel.

"Little one, how about we make a bet?"

"Please speak, senior."

The Heavenly Lake Holy Lord narrowed his eyes and said, "If you believe that female Celestial Person being from the Dragon-Seeking Sect can break the Heavenly Lake record, then I will answer another question for you."

"Breaking the record?"

Chen Ning naturally knew that Heavenly Lake's record for defending the title was fifteen matches.

So Chen Ning smiled faintly and said, "Breaking the record is too easy. How about this, I bet my Hua'er will overpower all the others and defeat all the Celestial Person! How about you answer one more question?"

"Haha, you little rascal, you're quite confident... Alright! I'll take your bet."

The Heavenly Lake Holy Lord laughed heartily.

Chen Ning also turned his attention to the fighting arena.

If anyone can answer all my questions, it is currently only the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord who is qualified to do so.

Of course, there's also their own family's First-Generation Sect Master.

However, the challenge set by that old man was too difficult, and besides, even he, as a First Generation leader, might not know about the matter of the eighth generation leader.

On the fighting stage.

That same beautiful figure still stood there.

And Hua Luo has already reached the height that Heavenly Lake once achieved.

The thousands of onlookers were all shocked.

This land has come to a complete boil!

Heavenly Venerable Minghua, as the strongest warrior of the Yin-Yang Holy Land, was comparable to the two Holy Lords, yet he still suffered a defeat.

If we were to say that Chen Ning was the only one who truly astonished the world in the Dragon-Seeking Sect.

After this grand event...

This will surely shake the world.

Dragon-Seeking Sect, truly everyone is a dragon in their own right!

Now.

Countless disciples were filled with excitement at the Dragon-Seeking Sect seats.

Both Meng Yuyi and Cang Yue looked delighted.

After this grand event, Dragon-Seeking Sect will surely rise to the top ten.

Wait, that's not right!

They might even be able to ascend to the Supreme position!

After all, in terms of points alone, Dragon-Seeking Sect is already far ahead of the competition.

Unstoppable!

It stands above all other superpowers.

The Asura Divine Lord's expression was somewhat unpleasant; even he hadn't expected that the woman in this Heaven-Burying Ancient Land would possess such terrifying combat power.

He could even defeat Celestial Person at the peak of the Heaven Martial Realm Eighth Layer.

Heavenly Venerable Minghua has been famous for a long time and is good at defeating the strong with the weak. Because of the powerful methods of natural Dao, even people at the Ninth Level of the Heaven Martial Realm may not have absolute confidence in defeating Heavenly Venerable Minghua.

But the woman almost killed Heavenly Venerable Minghua.

This is really quite tricky.

The Asura Divine Lord originally intended to use this grand event to intimidate the cultivation world of the Nine Provinces, thereby expanding his power and recruiting some more powerful sects to join the alliance.

But if we do that...

The effect was significantly reduced.

"Look, the people of Heavenly Lake have taken the stage!"

Mu Tianji turned to look at Chen Ning, smiling gently.

"There's no chance, Senior Mu."

Chen Ning wasn't worried at all. He followed the example of the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord and sat cross-legged on the mountaintop.

"What? Does she have some other trump card up her sleeve?"

Mu Tianji asked in confusion.

"I don't know about her trump cards or anything. Hua'er has always fought based on instinct," Chen Ning said with a faint smile.

"Then why do you say I, Heavenly Lake, have no chance?"

Mu Tianji looked at Chen Ning with a meaningful expression.

"Haven't you noticed that the Hua'er are getting stronger?"

Chen Ning's gaze deepened.

After Chen Ning's reminder, Mu Tianji, whether genuinely unaware or feigning ignorance, simply nodded and sighed, "Indeed, oh dear, I underestimated them. I should have let the people of Heavenly Lake challenge them sooner."

"That's right. If the experts from Heavenly Lake had made their move first, Hua'er might not have been a match for them. But after so many trials and tribulations, she has now reached a new level."

A glint of light flashed in Chen Ning's eyes. "It was evident from her match against Heavenly Venerable Minghua that Hua'er's speed and power had significantly improved in the latter half, completely different from her performance in the first match."

"To be able to improve in battle and become stronger with each fight, that's truly a freak. You've really struck gold, little guy." Mu Tianji's words were tinged with envy.

This aligns with the judgments of Chen Ning and the Heavenly Lake Holy Lord.

The white-haired old man at Heavenly Lake Ninth Level of the Heaven Martial Realm, a level stronger than Heavenly Venerable Minghua.

But he still lost to Hua Luo.

That concludes the discussion.

Dragon-Seeking Sect has already defended its title for sixteen rounds!

Breaking the Heavenly Lake record.

The entire land was bustling with noise and extremely lively.

They all witnessed this legendary moment firsthand.

Especially since their opponent also came from Heavenly Lake, it was as if a baton was being passed between a new and an old hegemon.

It evokes deep thought!

Now.

Only two Celestial Person remained who had not yet taken the stage.

They were the celestial being wearing a black crown from the Asura Divine Sect Celestial Person Li Changtian, the Flying Cloud Valley.

Everyone was speculating who would be the next to make a move.

At this moment.

Li Changtian flicked his sleeves, stepped onto the fighting stage, and declared loudly, "I, Li, have received great kindness from Sect Leader Chen and will not lay a hand on the Dragon-Seeking Sect. I concede defeat; I have only come to this stage to add a note to the Dragon-Seeking Sect's record."

After saying that.

Li Changtian stepped down from the stage without hesitation.

At this point, only that Celestial Person from the Asura Divine Sect remained.

He climbed the steps one by one onto the high fighting platform.

All eyes in the room followed him.

"The Undying Asura, Cao Zhang, it was him all along!"

An older generation member suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"I should have thought of that sooner, I should have thought of that sooner..."

"Master, is this person very strong?"

A young man spoke up and asked.

The older generation's eyes showed fear as they said to the younger generation, "Cao Zhang cultivates the secret technique of Undying Body this world. As long as he has a breath left, he is immortal and indestructible. He became famous ten thousand years ago and is a true veteran!"

"Everyone thought his immortality was just a legend, believing he had long since turned to dust... Who would have thought he was still alive, and even invited here by the Asura Divine Sect!"
