The final potential link_3 Chapter 492: 222: Leg broken, face ruined!
The final potential link_3 Historically, individuals possessing strong power levels are not necessarily the ones who live the longest.
Winning by a fluke or dying from a seemingly easy task are all too common.
…
At this moment,
Chen Dengming had already withdrawn from the Diamond Vajra Zen Dharma state, changed out of his damaged Armor Wood Robe and returned to his seat wearing an ancient robust armor.
He looked extraordinary and definitely more like a Body Cultivator who could fight, rather than a longevity-focusing cultivator.
...
On the other hand, Hua Zhenyu was carried out of the combat field.
He had suffered a severe injury, with his leg broken and fractured.
Such an injury is indeed nothing for a cultivator, a bit of skill applied and it would heal in less than half a month.
But the psychological blow from such a crushing defeat, under the watchful eyes of others, was far more painful and intense than the physical one.
Guan Chao, who was the referee, took a deep breath after sending off Hua Zhenyu.
He felt extremely relieved and satisfied.
Chuckling to himself, he exchanged a glance and a silent message with Gongshu Zai, who was also smirking from a distance.
“Nephew Chen is really brutal with his attacks, so intimidating.
He had me worried for a while, but thankfully, he’s smart.
Brutal, yes, but he did not aim to kill.”
Gongshu Zai scoffed, “He should be brutal.
Hua Zhenyu needs to be taught a lesson, always acting superior with his advanced cultivation age and golden core breakthrough, and Cheng Zhenwei backing him, ignoring us elders.
Hmph, with such a personality, he really isn’t suitable for the Longevity Seed.”
Guan Chao gave a smirk, “Let’s leave it.
We are turning a blind eye to it, aren’t we?
What about Brother Xing?
Moreover, these are all minor tactics.
Sneaky, indeed, but not too fierce.
Among sect members, as long as they do not kill each other, such tactics are normal when competing for the position of Longevity Seed.
It was the case even back in my days! ahem.”
“Old man, you are way too lenient.
But looking at it now, the Longevity Seed is pretty much Nephew Chen’s already.”
“Not necessarily, considering the potential stage in the end.
I mean, we both reviewed Chen’s past record.
He was already quite old when he first entered the Cultivation World from Nanxun.
In these years, although his power has increased immensely, how much could his longevity have increased?”
“In the potential stage, it’s not all about longevity potential, but also about the Spiritual Root and the final acceptance by Heaven Immortal Dao.”
In the midst of their psychic conversation,
specific cultivation states of Chen Dengming and the other five candidates had already been announced.
As expected, Chen Dengming was ranked last in this round.
Hua Zhenyu ranked first, followed by Tan Siyan, Huyan Shunbin, and Rao Ling in the second, third and fourth place respectively.

After all, these people were the best among the thirteen False Core apprentices chosen from the Longevity Sect, representing the peak of the sect’s power.
Chen Dengming, having just broken through the False Core a few years ago, would have a hard time catching up, regardless of how diligent he was in his cultivation, against these similarly talented geniuses who had been cultivating diligently for more than a decade.
However, cultivation level only contributes 30% to the overall power score.
Chen Dengming defeated everyone with his overwhelming power.
In the power level round, he won with an overwhelming advantage.
Hua Zhenyu had originally intended to end the fight in a more graceful way and try to level with Chen Dengming in the power level round.
But now, Chen Dengming had ruthlessly shattered this beautiful dream.
The voting round has not yet concluded, and Hua Zhenyu has only won graciously in the tenure round at this point.
But now, the defeat in power level has put the two back into a tie.
All depends on the potential round now.
“It seems…
I can only turn to an old friend for an advantage.
Even if I can’t acquire a Life Extension pill, getting a few Snow Ginseng roots will increase Zhenyu’s longevity potential and improve our chances.”
At the stand, Cheng Zhenwei, the leader of the Evergreen Sect, sighed inwardly.
As he watched Chen Dengming engaging in pleasant conversation with He Yingyu, he found himself increasingly irritated by this Chen guy.
Initially, without this Chen suddenly appearing out of nowhere, his nephew, Hua Zhenyu, would very likely be this term’s Longevity Seed.
Once becoming the Longevity Seed, not only would he gain access to the Heaven Immortal Dao, he would even have a chance to compete for the position of the leader or Supreme Elder in the future, and Cheng Zhenwei could benefit from that too.
What a great opportunity and immense resources it would be!
But now, everything had become muddled and even precarious.
