Chapter 513 A Fight to Defend the Challenge
The Reiki Range was very long, just like the root of a big tree, which was deeply rooted under the ground and connected the whole Zhongnay Mountain range.
“Such a large Reiki Range, it can be called the first Reiki Root of Celestial Empire.” Wang Feng said to himself, shocked by his discovery.
Hum!
At this time, Wang Feng suddenly felt that a crisis had locked himself. The old man who had been sitting inside the mountain found his existence and cast extremely cold eyes.
Wang Feng changed his expression and went back quickly. He dared not look at such a person. It was not that he was afraid of the counterpart, but that he knew that he had offended him by looking around before. If the counterpart were irritated, he was afraid that he would be doomed.
After retreating for almost a mile, Wang Feng found that the danger was far away. That man did not investigate himself.
Wang Feng was relaxed in his heart. He dared not look around anymore, because there were so many masters here. His strength was at the best middle level here.
Wang Feng had known the residence of Great Master of Array from the Dragon Spirit Squad leader, so he did not hesitate to go directly to the place where the array was located.
Along the way, he met a lot of cultivators, including men and women, who were all in a hurry and didn’t even have a conversation.
“Hey, man, where are you going? Why do you all look anxious?” Wang Feng grabbed a cultivator who had bypassed himself and was also a master in the Early Stage of Great Void.
“Don’t you know yet?” Grabbed by Wang Feng, the man’s face instinctively showed the annoyance.
But when he realized that Wang Feng’s strength was a bit higher than him, he suppressed the unhappiness, saying, ” Chongde Priest is going to accept an apprentice today, and we all go to have a try.”
“You have been a cultivator in the Great Void, and still need to be someone else’s apprentice?” Wang Feng asked with surprise.
“You know nothing! Chongde Priest is the Younger Brother of Duande Priest. It’s beneficial to be his apprentice.” The man said the news that surprised Wang Feng.
Duande Priest was the world’s top master, and even Dark Spirit Organization dared not deal with him. Even though his Younger Brother was a little worse than him, he would also be powerful.
“Let’s go. I’ll be with you to have a look.” Wang Feng said and it made this person angry. If you wanted to have a look, just went alone. Why were you going to be with me? Did I know you well?
However, thinking of that Wang Feng’s strength was stronger than his, he forced himself to suppress the anger and take Wang Feng to the depth of Zhongnay Mountain.
After walking for about half an hour, they finally arrived at the mountain gate of Chongde Priest. Many masters were living in seclusion in Zhongnay Mountain. There were such terrorists as Duande Priest, and naturally, there were others.
People were here only for one goal: to break the shackles of the present stage and march to a higher level. But back hundreds of years, no one had succeeded.
Some people sat here until they died, while others wanted to pass on their mantle before they died, so this scene in front of them appeared.
Some people knew that they were going to die, so they wanted to accept a protege to teach him what they had learned all their lives, so as not to be forgotten in history.
Duande Priest failed and died here. Obviously, his Younger Brother was also going to die, so he opened the mountain gate and wanted to receive a disciple to inherit his mantle.
The news that he was going to receive an apprentice had been spread out for a long time, so the cultivators who came from all over the world almost surrounded this place. With a roughly estimation, at least thousands of people were here.
Thousands of people came for one inheritance, and we could imagine the fierce competition.
Of course, there were more people still on the way, and Wang Feng also happened to see the chance.
Chongde Priest, the Younger Brother of Duande Priest, had defeated too many opponents in his whole life. He hadn’t failed so far. Even in the Late Stage of Great Void, he still stood at the top.
It was just that no matter how powerful cultivators are, under the ruthless time, they would perish forever in this world.
Chongde Priest had lived in this world for more than 200 years, and had come to the end of his life. Now he would use his last time to pass on his mantle, hoping that it would stay in this world forever.
Thousands of people gathered under the mountain gate, and the scene was very lively.
On the mountain gate, an old man stood on the top of the mountain with his hands on his back, lonely and illusory. This man was the Chongde Priest, a top figure in the Late Stage of Great Void.
“Brother, what’s the way of accepting the disciple?” Wang Feng dragged the cultivator in the Early Stage of Great Void and asked.
“You don’t know anything. Why are you here?” Hearing Wang Feng’s words, this man finally couldn’t stand it and broke away from Wang Feng.
“I’ve just come here today. If there’s anything I don’t understand, I hope that you can give me more advice.” Wang Feng’s tone was very polite. Then he took a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket and handed one to the man.
He was aware of the change of Wang Feng’s attitude; the expression of this man had finally become better. Anyway, Wang Feng’s strength was above him. Now Wang Feng was so polite to him; if he still treated him coldly, it would be his disrespect to the senior.
After taking the cigarette, the man said slowly: “There are only two ways to accept the disciples here. One is that the master takes the initiative to choose the disciple he likes, regardless of strength, while the other is to defend the challenge so that no one dares to fight anymore.”
“Defending the challenge?”
“Well, look over there. There’s a huge platform for everyone to fight. The challenge fight will be held there.” The man said and then pointed to a huge platform about two thousand meters away from Wang Feng and others.
The platform was huge, almost as big as three football fields, and what surprised Wang Feng was that as if this platform were made by shoveling a mountain.
What kind of strength was needed to achieve this?
“So many people, if someone wants to defend the challenge, is he going to die of fatigue?” Wang Feng asked.
“How could they die of fatigue? Some people are so strong that others dare not challenge them, and naturally they win.”
“So, you mean people can kill on that platform?”
“Of course. Don’t you see a huge monument there?” Then he pointed out the platform to Wang Feng.
After unfolding his X-ray vision, Wang Feng really saw a huge monument about 20 meters high standing on the edge of the platform, on which 5 big letters were written.
Arena!
The three words were very big, as if written in blood. At one glance, Wang Feng felt a tragic breath, which made him have to take back his eyes.
Touching his corner of the eye, Wang Feng found that blood flowed out, completely hurt by the evil spirit in the blood words.
“Those words can’t be watched at random. It’s said that masters in the Moral Stage engraved them. I just forgot to remind you.” Then the cultivator reminded.
“Fuck.” Hearing what he said, Wang Feng almost blamed him. Why didn’t you say it earlier? I was nearly blind.
At this moment, Wang Feng’s eyes were prickled and blurry. After a long time, he recovered a little.
“Are there really masters in the Moral Stage in this world?” Wang Feng asked.
“Of course, even someone has even seen them before.” The man said a piece of news that surprised Wang Feng.
It was very difficult to see a master in the Late Stage of Great Void in ordinary days. Had someone really broken through the boundary of the Great Void and reached the Moral Stage?
“But it was hundreds of years ago.” Suddenly the man sighed again, and Wang Feng was so speechless that he wanted to scold him.
The thing that happened hundreds of years ago was mentioned now; I almost believed it.
This man really needed to be beaten.
“Well, I won’t talk with you. The meeting will begin in a moment.” The man said and devoutly looked at the figure standing on the top of the mountain.
Chongde Priest had been powerful all his life. Even if now he were old, no one dared provoke him. Duande Priest lost his life in pursuit of the ultimate stage, and his legacy was gone.
As his Younger Brother, Chongde Priest and Duande Priest must have learned the same things, so this was the reason why these people came here in a hurry to be his apprentice.
Fame was extremely important. Duande Priest almost succeeded in reaching the ultimate stage. What he learned must be amazing. If they could get such a legacy, they would become powerful in the future.
More and more people were coming; just within ten minutes, at least tens of thousands of people gathered here, and there was still a growing trend, which shocked Wang Feng.
There were so many people coming here for the sake of a legacy. If they really had a challenging competition, there would be a very fierce war, and many people would die in that arena.
The strength of the people who came here was uneven, including the people in External Strength, Internal Strength and the Great Void. As far as Wang Feng saw, there were at least 50 masters in the Great Void.
It was an amazing scene where many masters in the Great Void appeared here at the same time. To grow up into the Great Void, the cultivators in the Internal Strength needed talent. Many people couldn’t reach it all their lives. Wang Feng had not seen as many as cultivators in the Great Void for all his live. It was worthy of being here.
“Senior, let’s start now.” At this time, someone shouted and couldn’t wait.
Seeing more and more people coming, many people were restless. The more people, the less chance they had. Of course, they were anxious.
Though he heard this man’s words, the figure on the top of the mountain was motionless, just like a statue.
He just looked up at the sky, as if he were watching something.
Following his eyes, Wang Feng unfolded X-ray vision, but saw nothing. There was just nothing.
Almost an hour later, the shadow on the top of the mountain slowly lowered his head. At this time, tens of thousands of people had already gathered under the mountain, which seemed very crowded.
He looked down at the tens of thousands of people, and he said calmly, “A fight to defend the challenge!”
It was just a simple phrase, but this phrase seemed to have a strange magic power. Hearing this, the people present were crazy immediately.
Once the challenge fighting started, the cultivators in Internal Strength and External Strength had no hope, because even if they went to the arena with their strength, they would die miserably.
So for a while, many people’s faces showed the expressions of great disappointment. The low-level cultivators had no chance to get the legacy.
The final winner only came into being among the masters in the Great Void.
“I have no hope.” At this time, the cultivator in the Great Void standing beside Wang Feng said, and his face showed disappointed expression.
His strength was in the Early Stage of Great Void, which was a very awkward position. He was indeed stronger than the cultivators in the Internal Strength, but he was much weaker than cultivators in the Middle Stage of Great Void.
So the people who had the chance to get the legacy could only be the cultivators in the Middle Stage of Great Void like Wang Feng.
Although there was only the gap of one stage between the middle and late stages, the real difference of combat power was just like a chasm; otherwise many people would not struggle to advance to the next stage for more than 100 years.
There were a lot of people in the Middle Stage of Great Void fighting for legacy, but the real figures in the late stage would never participate in this because they were standing at the top of the world. They didn’t need anyone else’s stuff.
The fight to defend the challenge was advantageous for the cultivators in the Middle Stage of Great Void. The cultivators in the Early Stage of Great Void were almost hopeless because they couldn’t hold on to the last moment.
