Lu Qing Ling: I Bet on Senior Brother Jiang
A year and a half.
Not only has he cultivated to the late stage of the Furnace Fire Realm, but he has also mastered thirteen divine abilities. Is this Brother Jiang's true talent?
Looking at Jiang Shu, who seemed completely calm and collected, as if nothing had happened.
Luo Yu was stunned. He never expected that he had just suggested that Brother Jiang temporarily avoid Ye Huang's sharp edge.
Brother Jiang had already stomped on Ye Jiankong, who was behind Ye Huang.
The Mystical Power Ranking —this Mystical Power Ranking is equivalent to having one foot in the Essence Core Realm!
He only cultivated one supernatural power, so how could he sense that the world had changed?
"Jiang Shu... is this the Ye Huang Jiang Shu that Ye Huang challenged? Has Ye Huang always been this bold???"
"He's still called Jiang Shu, you should call him Senior Brother Jiang! Thirteen supernatural abilities! Even if you master them all, it would take thirteen years. What kind of talent does he have to be able to climb the Mystical Power Ranking so quickly? Do you think Senior Brother Jiang will be able to become True Disciple in the future?"
"This is going to be a good show. I wonder what Senior Brother Ye will do if he knows all this. Will he shake hands and make peace, or will he fight? After all, the Mystical Power Ranking is only used to determine the number of divine powers. Some people who are ranked at the top are not necessarily stronger than the latter. Not to mention, Senior Brother Ye has been refining his Natal Treasure Item for many years and can do whatever he wants. His strength is among the best in the late stage of the Furnace Fire Realm."
"Senior Brother Jiang comes from a dynasty. During the Hundred Dynasty War, he obtained the Kun Peng Devouring Art, a divine ability passed down in the True Martial Ancient Hall. He has unparalleled luck. Perhaps he will have some fortuitous encounter outside and directly possess Natal Treasure Item?"
Within the True Martial Sect, there is no such thing as entering early or late; strength determines everything.
Therefore, even though they know that Jiang Shu has only been in the outer sect for less than two years.
However, these Outer Sect Disciple still bowed to Jiang Shu with their hands clasped in front of them, their eyes filled with envy, admiration, and indescribable shock.
They used Sound Transmission Talisman talismans to call upon their friends and send out messages, as if a fierce battle was about to erupt.
Returning the greetings to his fellow disciples, Jiang Shu didn't linger. He bid farewell to Luo Yu and Xue Xuan, and with a streak of light, disappeared back to his residence.
After refining the divine abilities within the Nether Lightning True Person's Origin Core and killing the Blood God's consciousness, his gaze was already fixed on the Origin Core realm.
In the coming years, Xuanxing will usher in a true Era of Great Strife, with countless powerful beings from the Cosmos flocking in. Although they are all consciousness entities, each one is at the Essence Core Realm or even higher.
If I were to still keep my sights on the Furnace Fire Realm...
How could he possibly have the right to monopolize the resources of the entire Xuanxing by his own power?
Therefore, let alone a defeated opponent like Ye Huang, he wouldn't care about Ye Jiankong, who had been touted in the outer sect for the past two years.
Immersed in cultivation once again, Jiang Shu continuously Spirit Refining. At this moment, the importance of the Proficiency Panel reached its peak.
In theory, he could cultivate all thirteen of these supernatural abilities to perfection, or even Limit Break.
Even if he doesn't cultivate any other supernatural abilities afterward, the Origin Core formed from the thirteen Limit Break supernatural abilities will still shock the entire True Martial Sect.
Of course, he wouldn't do that. The condensation of the Origin Core is actually like the cultivation of a Sky-Piercing Tree, where the distribution of branches and trunk must be extremely clear.
For cultivators at any level, time is always limited.
Although it may seem like hundreds of years have passed, the cultivation of supernatural powers is actually measured in years.
Not to mention, there are still crises on Xuanxing.
Jiang Shu's mind was as calm as still water. On the Panel, the proficiency of the Heaven's Will True Self Body continued to increase. He regarded this technique as his most fundamental divine power in the Furnace Fire and Origin Core realms.
Origin Power and spiritual power are constantly being honed.
At this moment, the outer sect was like a pot of water about to boil. On the once quiet peak, streaks of light, accompanied by howling winds, swiftly passed through, bringing news that shocked all the Outer Sect Disciple.
Jiang Shu... Having entered the outer sect for less than two years, Jiang Shu has cultivated thirteen supernatural abilities and climbed the Mystical Power Ranking!
"Unbelievable! How did he cultivate in less than two years? If the Mystical Power Ranking wasn't based on Earth Rank Treasure Artifact, I would have suspected it was all fake."
"Tsk, if it weren't for the Mystical Power Plaza, who would have thought that Senior Brother Jiang's ranking is indeed above Senior Brother Ye's? This is going to be interesting. Who would have thought that a lowly Servant Disciple from two years ago would have reached such a level today?"
"I don't know what Senior Brother Ye is thinking, but if I were Ye Huang, I would definitely be devastated. The gap was still visible when we were at the Servant Peak, but how come it's getting bigger and bigger now that we're in the outer sect?"
"Who can argue with that? Ye Huang is a genius, but compared to Senior Brother Jiang, he's only reached the threshold."
"Keep your voice down, they're here. I wonder when I'll be able to climb the Mystical Power Ranking. Without condensing my Origin Core, the Furnace Fire Realm only lasts for five hundred years. And without unifying my divine powers, I can never unleash my full combat potential."
"The gap between inner and outer disciples is even greater than the gap between outer disciples and servants. Although we Outer Sect Disciple can Spirit Refining abilities, we have to figure them out on our own, without the guidance of elders or masters. It's easy to go astray and take detours. Even if we have the notes of our predecessors to verify our understanding, it will still take a long time."
"Not to mention the supply of resources. inner disciple with a master have a completely different experience from ordinary Outer Sect Disciple like us."
"Yes, only by condensing the Origin Core and advancing to the inner disciple of the Thirty-Six Peaks of True Martial. If only one could become a disciple of a Myriad Manifestations Dao Lord..."
"You really dare to dream. I've heard that most inner disciple learn their Cultivation Method and supernatural abilities from the Dharma Transmission Elder. They can't even become disciples of the Thirty-Six Peaks. They only cultivate specific Cultivation Method and supernatural abilities. Only the most talented among them can be chosen by the Myriad Manifestations Dao Lord and have a status comparable to an ordinary Nirvana True Monarch."
"Origin Core True Person, Nirvana True Monarch, Myriad Manifestations Dao Lord. Each realm is a different level. Those of us at the Furnace Fire Realm are just ordinary cultivators."
The Outer Sect Disciple were buzzing with discussion, and at that moment, they were talking about the same person.
Ye Huang clenched his fists, his face filled with disbelief. He stood on the Mystical Power Plaza, staring at the glaring name of Jiang Shu on the Mystical Power Ranking, his pupils radiating anger and panic.
He couldn't figure it out, he couldn't understand it.
On what grounds?
How did Jiang Shu manage to climb the Mystical Power Ranking in just two short years?
Shouldn't he still be cultivating his third supernatural power at this time?
Shouldn't his cultivation level still be at the early stage of the Furnace Fire Realm?
How could it be that in the blink of an eye, not only himself, but even his greatest support was trampled underfoot?
"They must have had some extraordinary encounters while traveling."
Compared to Ye Huang, Ye Jiankong appeared extremely calm. His gaze was disdainful. Along the way, he had already killed countless enemies and fought against countless foes.
Battles where one fights against many, or where the weak defeat the strong, are not uncommon.
The number of supernatural powers one possesses does not equate to actual strength!
In his guess, this young man named Jiang Shu must have discovered the legacy of Origin Core Realm Master while on a mission and refined the Mystical Power Great Elixir.
Centuries of cultivation, stolen in a single day.
Such extraordinary encounters actually occur frequently in the Vast Desolate Domain.
Jiang Shu, perhaps, is just such a person with extraordinary luck.
However, this lucky girl should never have been so arrogant.
He's just a guy who gained temporary fame through a lucky encounter. He wouldn't think that the supernatural powers he gained by refining other people's Mystical Power Great Elixir are equal in combat strength to the supernatural powers he cultivates himself, would he?
The cultivation methods of Origin Core True Person are all systematic.
What works for others may not work for you. Some cultivators rely on the supernatural Spirit Transformation their own Mystical Power Great Elixir and thus reach the Essence Core Realm. While this may seem like a shortcut, in reality, it means they are completely cutting off their own path to enlightenment.
Holding a system that doesn't suit them, yet wanting to enter Nirvana and survive the tribulations of Wind Fire Thunder Three Tribulations?
That's wishful thinking!
"We've seen it all, let's go. I've been studying a supernatural power these past few days. In a month, once I've mastered it, I'll be able to wield thirteen supernatural powers."
Ye Jiankong accepted the challenge remotely. His voice was soft, yet it resounded in every corner of the Mystical Power Plaza, ensuring that all the Outer Sect Disciple present could hear it clearly.
"Since Junior Brother Jiang is willing to offer his guidance, then I, Ye Jiankong, will give you some pointers."
"Supernatural powers are always cultivated by oneself!"
He patted Ye Huang on the shoulder. Having met his nephew several times, he knew that his nephew was quite talented, but his temperament was slightly lacking.
Hopefully, this time he will make some progress.
As for Jiang Shu, there's no need to worry about him too much.
Refining the Mystical Power Great Elixir to gain supernatural abilities is inherently a wrong path.
He will use a crushing battle to prove that a sheep in tiger's clothing is still just a sheep.
A month is an extremely long time for ordinary people in a worldly dynasty; only when the month is up can they possibly receive some copper coins.
For the disciples of the Servant Peak, it was a mission to carry out.
For Outer Sect Disciple, a month is too short a time; some disciples can't even become familiar with the supernatural abilities.
For example, Luo Yu had no interest in cultivation during this month. He kept inquiring about information and lingered in front of Jiang Shu's residence.
"I really don't know how Brother Jiang cultivated to this level. Perhaps, only in this way can one reach such a realm. The people outside are really something, talking about refining the Mystical Power Great Elixir. Even if we were given a Mystical Power Great Elixir to a Origin Core True Person, it would still take us time to refine it. Moreover, even if we mastered the Divine Power, our realm wouldn't improve. Brother Jiang's realm has reached the late stage of the Furnace Fire Realm, which is the most terrifying thing."
Seeing Luo Yu muttering to himself, Xue Xuan felt a little calmer.
Although he knew that the supernatural powers refined by the Mystical Power Great Elixir would inevitably be inferior to those he cultivated himself.
Moreover, Jiang Shu broke through two minor realms from the initial stage of the Furnace Fire Realm in less than two years, so his foundation may not be stable.
But that doesn't stop him from believing in Jiang Shu.
He had truly watched Jiang Shu's journey, witnessing how he managed to overcome stronger opponents and ultimately win first place in the Hundred Dynasty War.
After entering the sect, he further cultivated the Martial Arts Grand Summary, rebuilt his foundation, and became the first Servant Disciple among his peers to enter the outer sect.
Jiang Shu's achievements always exceeded his expectations.
So, this time will inevitably be the same.
True genius is never measured by conventional standards!
The Spirit Crane flew about, streaks of light, and arrived at the outer gate. Some of the outer gate senior brothers on the Mystical Power Ranking had already emerged from seclusion.
The news of Jiang Shu's challenge to Ye Jiankong spread like wildfire.
One month later.
Outside the Mystical Power Plaza, a dense mass of Outer Sect Disciple stood in mid-air.
In the plaza, two Outer Sect Deacon at the Essence Core Realm served as judges and presided over the competition.
The cultivators on the Mystical Power Ranking are already equivalent to half of the Essence Core Realm. If they fight too much and their source is damaged, it could be a loss for their True Martial Sect.
Therefore, it is necessary to have a steward at the Essence Core Realm to oversee the situation.
At this moment, their expressions were calm, and as they locked eyes, they communicated telepathically. In just a few breaths, they finalized a small bet.
In their view, both Ye Jiankong and Jiang Shu had a chance of winning.
Ye Jiankong's strength lies in his composure. He has mastered the thirteen divine abilities he cultivated, and his Natal Treasure Item has been nurtured for twenty years. He has fought countless battles against opponents of the same realm, and his place on the Mystical Power Ranking is truly well-deserved.
Jiang Shu's advantage lies in the word "unique." He appears to have refined Mystical Power Great Elixir, but no one knows about his divine power. Moreover, divine power is not only judged by quantity but also by quality. If the divine power quality system of this peer in the Essence Core Realm is also suitable for Jiang Shu, he might be like a tiger with wings.
Moreover, they knew that Jiang Shu possessed the Heavenly Mechanism Puppet Art and might even be able to summon Puppet to fight, allowing him to outnumber the enemy. He might not be unable to defeat Natal Treasure Item.
The outcome of the match between the two was evenly matched.
The deacon's gambling game is all about skill.
The betting games among Outer Sect Disciple are mainly based on quantity.
With an Outer Sect Disciple taking the lead, many other disciples followed suit, hoping to profit from the spectacle in addition to watching the excitement and learning from the combat experience.
"I feel that Senior Brother Ye is stronger. You know, Senior Brother Ye now has thirteen supernatural abilities. With the same number of supernatural abilities, Senior Brother Jiang can't get much of an advantage, not to mention that Senior Brother Ye has a deeper foundation. Anyway, I bet on Senior Brother Ye to win, and I've staked half of my life savings on it. I hope Senior Brother Ye won't disappoint me this time."
"Me too! Although Senior Brother Jiang has extraordinary luck and great talent, he has only been cultivating for a short time. Less than two years. If Senior Brother Jiang Senior Brother Jiang had cultivated for another year, I would definitely have chosen him and he would have won!"
"I've chosen Senior Brother Jiang Senior Brother Jiang. I only know of his three supernatural abilities: Kun Peng Devouring Art, Heaven's Will True Self Body, and Heavenly Mechanism Puppet Art. None of these three abilities are weak. How could a genius who can cultivate such supernatural abilities ruin his path to the heavens by refining Mystical Power Great Elixir? Perhaps the system of this Mystical Power Great Elixir is just right for him?"
The odds of the bets gradually reached seven to three.
Just as everyone was making their moves and preparing for a major battle on the Outer Sect Mystical Power Ranking, a somewhat cold voice rang out.
"I am Senior Brother Jiang, and I possess a Spirit Rank Treasure Item."
Lu Qing Ling lowered her eyes and looked at the somewhat empty Mystical Power Plaza, apart from the Outer Sect Deacon. In her mind, she couldn't help but recall the scenes in the Underground Abyss.
