Heirs Gather Before Giant Spirit Peak
In the blink of an eye, three days have passed.
Chen Ning and Ji Hongyi also set off for Giant Spirit Peak.
Giant Spirit Peak soars into the clouds, its peak shimmering with ethereal light.
At the summit, an ancient tree rises majestically into the sky.
It's not particularly lush or leafy.
But on every single leaf flows the essence of the Great Way.
The entire trunk of the Ancient Tree of Dao Comprehension is even more miraculous; it is transparent, with wisps of blood within it, as if it were a living being.
"It truly is a divine object!"
Chen Ning sighed.
Centered on the Ancient Tree of Dao Comprehension, the surrounding area, spanning thousands of feet, is enveloped in a world imbued with the essence of Tao.
Practicing and attaining enlightenment within it yields twice the results with half the effort.
If one can cultivate under a tree, it is as if one has divine assistance.
When Chen Ning arrived, the prodigies and successors of the other seven clans also rushed over.
In.
Many of them were acquaintances.
This includes Ren Yuan, the Divine Son of Death, who was defeated by his own hand.
Wang Jiuxuan of the Profound Nether God Clan.
And then there's... Jun Tianming of the Fate God Clan.
Upon seeing the members of the Fate God Clan, Chen Ning felt a strange sensation. He knew that the future would inevitably be one of hostility towards this clan.
If they find out about the existence of the Hua Luo.
Just as the Light Clan Leader said, they will spare no effort to destroy her.
At the same time.
Chen Ning also paid attention to the people sent by the Darkness God Clan.
The various prodigies from different races have come to compete for the Divine Fruit of Dao Comprehension.
The Darkness God Clan are arguably the least prestigious of all.
Both of their greatest talents died at Chen Ning's hands.
That's not all.
Other individuals who could be considered prodigies among the younger generation also perished in Heaven of Profound Understanding.
Completely annihilated.
Therefore, the two who stepped up at this moment were the weakest among everyone.
He only possesses the cultivation level of Great Saint Middle Stage.
Moreover, within this realm, their strength is only considered mid-to-lower level.
It's important to know that even Chen Ning is openly at the Great Saint Early Stage.
It's easy to imagine how humiliating the Darkness God Clan were this time.
Apart from these few.
Wearing a jade crown and a gold belt, Ning Gucheng stood proudly among the crowd.
Where is he?
That is the center.
Although Divine Son of Kunlun Li Changsheng is strong, he has far surpassed the level of his peers. Although he is not arrogant, he is the kind of person who makes others feel inferior and dare not approach him.
All the prodigies knew that the Divine Son of Kunlun had already reached a level surpassing theirs.
Whether it's ability or mentality.
They admired Ning Gucheng and also took him as their role model.
But when faced with Li Changsheng, they only felt a deep sense of powerlessness and endless desolation.
Ultimately, it's impossible to even come close to its level.
But at this moment...
Aside from the Divine Dao Comprehension Tree, which attracted the most attention, all the geniuses present looked at Chen Ning, Ji Hongyi, and Ning Gucheng with amusement.
Let's eat melon seeds (gossip).
One can never escape the common customs.
And it's that delightful plot twist again: the woman the Little War God of the War God Clan has his eye on is snatched away by Chen Ning, a lowly being from the lower realm.
And today the two meet here again.
It's definitely going to be a good show.
At this time.
Ning Gucheng walked towards Chen Ning, saying indifferently, "I didn't expect you to dare come..."
Chen Ning remained silent.
Ning Gucheng continued, "You killed nine of my clansmen. I originally thought you would hide in the Light God Clan like a coward, but now that you're here, it saves me a lot of trouble. In a moment, I will kill you with my own hands."
Chen Ning smiled faintly, neither confirming nor denying.
Ning Gucheng didn't mind. He looked around at everyone and said, "Since you're all here, let's begin today's competition... Everyone here is here for the Divine Fruit of Dao Comprehension, so let's skip the formalities."
"Chen Ning, you won't be so lucky this time!"
Beside him, Ren Yuan stared at Chen Ning with a cold gaze. He had been defeated by Chen Ning in Heaven of Profound Understanding last time, and he was going to settle that score today.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Jun Tianming spoke up, "Then let's proceed according to the pre-established rules. The top three who outskill the others will each receive a Divine Fruit of Dao Comprehension."
The other prodigies had no objections.
That's fair.
Ning Gucheng said, "To save time, the Divine Son of Kunlun will not participate and will win directly. Do you have any objections?"
"The Divine Son of Kunlun's strength far surpasses ours, so naturally no one has any objections."
"That's fine too."
Everyone present agreed.
Li Changsheng's strength was said to be unprecedented and unparalleled; even Ning Gucheng had no chance of winning.
Not to mention others.
Moreover, this time the Kunlun God Clan only sent Li Changsheng, and their attitude was very clear: they would only take one, and the remaining seven clans would compete for the rest.
In this way...
That leaves only two Divine Fruits to fight for.
Ning Gucheng was determined to get one of them.
The competition for the other one was incredibly fierce.
It is also the only hope for most of the most promising talents.
Ning Gucheng looked at the Divine Son of Kunlun, clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Brother Changsheng, I hope you will do me the trouble of acting as a referee to prevent anyone from breaking the rules."
"Good."
Li Changsheng nodded in agreement.
Actually, he wasn't really interested in this competition. None of the other seven clans' prodigies caught his eye. The only thing that surprised him was Chen Ning's arrival, so he readily agreed to be a referee.
Otherwise.
Watching them fight is less interesting than watching wild animals frolicking in the mountains.
With Li Changsheng as the referee, no one would dare to cause trouble. In fact, even without Li Changsheng's restraint, no one would easily break the rules.
If such a situation occurs...
That would be openly offending the other seven clans.
