Was He Still a Purebred Human?
"Li Jing, the value of Earth is comparable to a Peak Domain-type Supreme Treasure. You must consider the sake of your race and contribute Earth!" The Ganwu Country Lord earnestly advised Li Jing.
Behind him stood the Fiery Shi Huo Venerable: "This is 10 million Hunyuan Unit. Consider it compensation for purchasing Earth. It's enough for you to buy ten or eight star systems elsewhere!"
On the tenth island of the Illusion Sea, Li Jing gazed at the incredibly realistic scene before him, a cold glint in his eyes. "Break!"
A powerful will, carrying with it consciousness, forcefully shattered this illusion.
"Our master, the Ganwu Country Lord, would never do such a thing! He would never associate with someone like Shi Huo!"
After breaking through the illusion, there was an oppressive aura emanating from Immortal Level.
Although Li Jing's consciousness was limited by his own realm, which was only at the Universe Level, his will was incredibly strong.
Having undergone the Willpower Tempering Card produced by the Universe Level Card Pool, which is comparable to grinding one's soul inch by inch in a millstone, he has now reached the peak of the Immortal Peak Marquis.
Willpower is the teacher, consciousness is the general, and Spiritual Force is the soldier. A powerful commander is capable of leading ordinary soldiers to defeat an enemy far superior to themselves.
With the support of his will at the Peak Marquis Immortal Level, the pressure from the mere 10th island in the Illusion Sea was like a gentle breeze to Li Jing.
They easily overcame the obstacle and set foot on the 11th island.
Outside, a group of powerful figures at the Universe Venerable level were stunned. They really got through so easily?
Although they predicted that Li Jing had a high probability of being able to pass the 10th Illusion Sea Island.
But in their view, at the very least, they should have to go to great lengths and make themselves look utterly pathetic, right?
Did you really get through that so easily?
With just Universe Level consciousness, how strong must Li Jing's will be?
At this moment, everyone turned their attention to the Ganwu Country Lord and found him looking completely calm and collected. How could they not understand that they had been fooled by the Ganwu Country Lord?
The Ganwu Country Lord might be waiting to see them make a fool of themselves!
You thick-browed, Ganwu, your heart has grown increasingly wicked since you had a disciple!
First, during the Genius Battle, he conspired with his disciple to swindle a bet of fifteen Treasure Points.
Now they're deliberately keeping it to themselves, waiting to see others make a mistake in their predictions and embarrass themselves.
Okay, okay, so we're all just part of your master-disciple's game?
"Ganwu, give me a real scoop. Just what level is your disciple's willpower? How many Illusion Sea can he conquer?"
"Otherwise, I'll be coming after you to collect the debt!"
At this moment, a creditor approached and said in an unfriendly tone.
The other Universe Venerable had previously borrowed some Supreme Treasure Point or Treasure Points from the Ganwu Country Lord out of consideration for his reputation also joined in the clamor.
"Yes, Ganwu, you have to give us a straight answer, or you'll have to pay back the debts you owe us."
Having his weakness exposed, the Ganwu Country Lord could no longer sit high in the stands.
If these people insist on him repaying his debts, he'll have no choice but to become a deadbeat.
The Treasure Points and Supreme Treasure Point treasure points he had borrowed before have now been transformed into his disciple's warm Space-Escape Silk.
Where is he going to get Treasure Points and Supreme Treasure Point to pay off his debts?
We can't very well take our disciple's Space-Escape Silk to the Human Race Treasury for recycling, can we?
He wouldn't do such a thing!
In order not to become a deadbeat, the Ganwu Country Lord had no choice but to suppress his desire to watch the show.
He revealed that he knew and speculated that Li Jing's will might have reached the Immortal Army Lord Peak, and that he should be able to pass through 12 or 13 Illusion Sea Islands.
The gazes of these Universe Venerable, having received permission from the Ganwu Country Lord, became slightly dazed.
Universe Level, will reaching the Immortal Army Lord Peak?
Is it certain that Li Jing is still a pure human?
Compared to the Law Comprehension, the talent of willpower is even more precious!
So far, apart from being driven by advancements in spiritual realm and being tempered through painful trials, there is no other effective way to enhance willpower.
They were all powerful figures at the Venerable Level, so naturally they didn't disregard the importance of willpower like ordinary cultivators.
The later the stage, the greater the benefits that willpower can bring.
Among these Universe Venerable present, there were quite a few who had reached the level of High Venerable and were only a hair's breadth away from fully mastering the Space-Time Origin Law.
But that tiny gap was like an insurmountable chasm, one that they could not bridge no matter how hard they tried.
If their willpower could surpass their own strength by a whole realm, reaching the level of the Lord of the Universe.
The chance of fully mastering the Space-Time Origin Law and breaking through to become the Universe Master could increase by at least several dozen times!
And this is just one of the benefits of a strong will.
Knowing how precious a powerful willpower is, these Universe Venerable looked at the Ganwu Country Lord with even more envy.
What a fine disciple! How did he end up with that Ganwu?
Is he capable of teaching effectively?
Does he have the financial resources to support a disciple with such monstrous talent?
Among these people, the Venerable Nine Swords was the most outstanding.
He genuinely believed that if it weren't for the Ganwu Country Lord, he, as the one presiding over this year's Genius Battle, would have been able to take Li Jing as his disciple.
Not to mention the turmoil that has already engulfed the outside world because of Li Jing's intrusion into the Illusion Sea.
At this point, Li Jing had already conquered 11, 12, and 13 islands in the Illusion Sea.
To be honest, although the difficulty was slightly higher than the 10th Illusion Sea Island, it felt about the same to him and didn't pose much of an obstacle.
Soon, Li Jing set foot on the 14th Illusion Sea Island, a place that required the Immortal Army Lord Peak to conquer.
"After conquering this 14th island, you'll earn 819,200 points. The rewards are finally starting to increase; otherwise, it wouldn't be very interesting!"
Li Jing pondered to himself before facing the illusion created by the 14th island in the Illusion Sea.
Outside, while Li Jing easily traversed 13 and set foot on 14 Illusion Sea...
The way all the Universe Venerable looked at the Ganwu Country Lord had begun to change.
Is this what you mean by the will of only those at the Immortal Army Lord Peak?
Whose Immortal Army Lord Peak willpower, could sustain a Universe Level consciousness and venture to the 14th Illusion Sea Island?
You think messing with us once isn't enough? You're planning to do it a second time, aren't you?
I think you, Ganwu, want to be chased for debts right now!
The Ganwu Country Lord felt a chill run down his spine under the gazes of the group of Universe Venerable, and secretly lamented in his heart. "Disciple, you have truly caused your master great suffering!"
Willpower is universally acknowledged as the most difficult quality to cultivate, yet you keep redefining our understanding of it time and time again.
If you continue to be this outstanding, your teacher might just take you along to become a deadbeat too!
"Ladies and gentlemen, please don't get agitated. As I just said, this is just my speculation."
"My disciple's talent is even more outstanding than I thought. In the end, he conquered one more island in the Illusion Sea than I predicted (12-13). That makes perfect sense, doesn't it?"
"Don't worry, 14 islands in the Illusion Sea are already the limit!"
The Ganwu Country Lord forced himself to explain.
