Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
A’wei was making tea for Li Qingshan, occasionally looking at the sky.
It was a joyous scene.
At that moment, countless mortals and top-notch experts in countless Human Worlds were looking at the sky.
Xia wuji.
Who was that person?
Even Zhao Minghuang, who had just received a reward from the Immortal Path Golden Ranking, was no longer excited. He held the demonic saber that he had personally refined and frowned.
“Who is this person? He’s actually ranked above me?” Zhao Minghuang’s expression darkened as he stared at the sky.
He thought his power was already extraordinary in the Human World Immortal Plane. He did not expect to be ranked only 10th in all the Human Worlds.
Zhao Minghuang was unconvinced and sneered, “I shall see how powerful the top nine are.”
Everyone was waiting for the Immortal Path Golden Ranking to introduce Xia wuji.
Just like how it had introduced the 10th place, Zhao Minghuang.
[Xia Wuji, born with a different body, has the bloodline of the Ancient Fighter.
He was born 80 years ago and had stepped into the Human World Immortal Plane. He has never lost a battle in his life.]
Another line of words appeared on the Immortal Path Golden Ranking.
That introduction wasn’t as shocking as Zhao Minghuang’s.
After all, Zhao Minghuang had done something that angered both men and Gods, and Xia Wuji was merely introduced as a genius.
However, the last sentence about him being born 80 years ago, stepping into the Human World Immortal Plane, and having never lost a battle in his life was quite shocking.
One must know that Zhao Minghuang, ranked 10th, had used 300 years to enter the Human World Immortal Plane.
The 9th place, Xia Wuji, only used 80 years.
Furthermore, he had never lost a battle in his life.
That introduction was incredible.
Zhao Minghuang, who was in 10th place, frowned even more when he saw that. He gripped his demonic saber tightly and shook his head in disbelief, “From the time he started his cultivation to the time he broke through to become a Human World Immortal, he hasn’t lost a single time. I don’t believe it. It’s impossible for anyone to do that.”
Even if you were invincible at your cultivation plane and could kill enemies of a
higher plane, you could never challenge someone at the Ultimate Plane when you were in the Saint Plane.
In many worlds, many cultivators shared Zhao Minghuang’s thoughts.
But they could not question it.
Because the Immortal Path Golden Ranking was the one that evaluated it.
They could only wait silently. The Immortal Path Golden Ranking then presented a short summary of Xia Wuji’s life.
[Xia Wuji’s life is about to be shown to the world.]
At that moment, everyone was looking forward to it and waiting.
Boom!
In the next second, the world turned dark.
The clear blue sky with white clouds had suddenly turned into a world of endless darkness.
However, no one panicked. Everyone knew that the Immortal Path Golden Ranking was beginning to present the life of the 9th Human World expert.
With the sky as its screen, it would present a real event from the past.
It would unravel the secrets of a dusty history.
On the Repentance Cliff, Li Qingshan, dressed in green, sat on a chair with a cup of tea in his hand. He looked at the sky with interest.
The story began with a farm with smoke rising from its chimneys. There was a newborn baby who grew up carefree.
When he was four, two top-notch experts suddenly flew over in the sky and fought. As the flames of their battle spread, they destroyed the village and implicated the child’s parents and relatives.
Then, one person won and killed the other.
Then, he looked indifferently at the village and farmlands they had destroyed and flew away without looking back.
A four-year-old child crawled out of the ruins alone.
His body was burning with anger.
It was a real flame born from the child’s bloodline. That battle led the child to witness the death of his loved ones and friends. Under extreme anger, he awakened his ancient bloodline.
He had a variant body, but it was not very helpful for cultivation. It was very helpful for combat.
Those who saw that scene could not help but sigh. The aftermath of the battle between two top-notch cultivators had destroyed a happy family.
It also created a terrifying enemy.
Xia wuji.
The child left his hometown to look for his enemy. He didn’t remember who the enemy was or where he came from, but he remembered his clothes and the pictures on the clothes.
With that, the young man crossed mountains and rivers and experienced countless hardships along the way. From his first battle to finally discovering the enemy’s sect, he had experienced 1,000 battles.
After 1,000 battles, he had reached the Ultimate Pinnacle Plane.
The young man’s enemy was from the top sect in their world, where experts were as common as clouds. His friends told him to wait and break through to the Nirvana Plane before taking revenge.
The young man said, “The revenge for my parents, friends, and family can’t wait for even a moment!”
One person against one sect. He was not afraid at all and immediately barged in.
Then, a battle that took ten days and ten nights began.
The young man challenged a sect alone. In that sect, three people were at the
Human World Immortal Plane.
The battle was intense, and the world thought he could not win.
However, ten days later, he dragged a young man covered in wounds and slowly walked out of that sect. Under the shocked gazes of countless disciples, he did not start a massacre. He only killed the chief culprit.
There were also the three Human World Immortal experts who participated in the battle.
At the Ultimate Plane, he fought against those three at once without being at a disadvantage and killed them all.
The youth’s bravery made many people exclaim endlessly.
Then, he returned to his hometown and built the house in his memory. He planted a few farmlands and lived the life his parents had.
In the blink of an eye, decades had passed.
On the day he turned 80, the youth broke through to the Human World Immortal Plane without warning.
After that, he reached the pinnacle and was invincible in that Human World.
The scene presented in the sky was very plain. Compared to Zhao Minghuang, who was in 10th place, Xia Wuji’s story was as plain as water.
However, even that ‘plain’ water-like scene made people’s emotions surge.
It was because the 10th place, Zhao Minghuang, had done something that had crossed the bottom line of the crowd, which was why it was so shocking.
The 9th place, Xia Wuji, had been upright throughout. He would not show mercy to those who should be killed, and he did not touch anyone who should not be killed.
After his revenge, he returned to his homeland and lived in seclusion.
Compared to Xia Wuji, Zhao Minghuang looked like a heinous demon.
People applauded Xia Wuji’s story and scoffed at Zhao Minghuang’s.
When the scene in the sky finished playing, the world fell into a short silence.
In a Human World where green mountains and clear waters surrounded farmlands, everyone looked at the familiar Xia Wuji in one of the farms.
He was wearing coarse linen clothes, and his face was sallow. Was that lonely old man actually the strongest person in that world?
“Old Man Xia, is that you in the sky?” The village chief asked carefully.
Xia Wuji was 80 years old. He was really an elderly. He smoked a big bag of tobacco. His body was thin, and his back was slightly arched. He also looked up at the sky and said, “It’s me.”
“Then, aren’t you the strongest person in the world?” The village chief asked excitedly.
“I’m just the strongest person in this Human World. I can’t be considered the strongest person in the world.” Xia Wuji shook his head and took two puffs of dry tobacco from his pipe.
“Well, since you’re so strong, can you teach my grandchildren how to practice katas?” An elderly person in the village asked with a hopeful expression. Xia Wuji shook his head and said, “I’m leaving soon. I don’t have time to teach anyone.”
“Oh, right, you are going to that so-called Dimensional Battlefield. You have to work hard and win glory for our world.” The village chief said encouragingly.
Xia Wuji said with a smile, “As long as Village Chief gives me the dry tobacco you have saved, I’ll definitely bring glory to this world.”
The village chief immediately patted his chest and said, “Don’t worry. I will immediately go home and get all the tobacco for you. You can take them to that Dimensional Battlefield to smoke.’
“I have some at home too. I’ll get it for you too.”
“I planted some this year too. They’ve just been fried. I’ll go get them for you now.”
“I knew that you, Xia Wuji, are a heavy tobacco addict; I will get it for you now.”
For a moment, all the men in the village went home to get dry tobacco.
When Xia Wuji saw that scene, he exhaled a mouthful of smoke and smiled happily.
He liked that feeling.
It was as if he had returned to his childhood when his parents and his childhood playmates were still around, and everyone was playing around. The old man was smoking dry tobacco in front of the house, looking at them with a smile. His mother and aunt cooked dinner, waiting for his father and uncles to return.
In Xia Wuji’s memory, that was the most precious memory.
“Immortal Path Golden Ranking. Dimensional World. After resting for so many years, my bones are starting to itch. Isn’t it just fighting? I just need to break through the Dimensional Battlefield.” Xia Wuji’s long-lost fighting spirit returned.
He would bring his dry tobacco to the Dimensional Battlefield and create a future for himself..
