Chapter 2474 2448 Trouble (Seven Updates)
Chapter 2474: Chapter 2448: Trouble! (Seven Updates) Chapter 2474: Chapter 2448: Trouble! (Seven Updates) Ancient extreme demon, no one could be more monstrous than Ye Chen, could they?
Even Elder Gu found it hard to believe as he looked at Ye Chen!
He thought he had already pulled Ye Chen’s potential quite high, but now, he realized he was still wrong!
Ye Chen, once again, refreshed his comprehension!
Ling Jiuxiao’s face looked extremely ugly. His question, which was supposed to salvage his own face, ended up allowing Ye Chen to steal the spotlight instead!
Seeing this, Wen Tianli didn’t say much. He was just about to start the second test, but, at this moment, Ye Chen’s voice once again rang out.
“Elder Wen, please wait a moment.”
Wen Tianli’s temples throbbed with veins, and he glared at Ye Chen in anger!
Who was he? A supreme powerhouse of the Divine Alliance! And yet, on the selection competition, he was repeatedly interrupted?
And again, it was this Ye Chen?
Just as Wen Tianli was about to erupt in full-blown fury, Ye Chen remained indifferent, smiling faintly and said: “Elder Wen, what if I say I can restore that Demon Iron to its original state?”
“What?” Wen Tianli was stunned. His original anger dissipated in an instant. Restoring Demon Iron that had turned into powder to its original state?
It sounded unthinkable…
But so did absorbing all the Extreme Evil Energy into one’s body, which was also unthinkable…
Yet Ye Chen had done just that.
Maybe, he really had the ability to restore the Demon Iron?
Joy flickered in Wen Tianli’s eyes. If the Demon Iron could be restored, it was naturally something he would desire!
Ye Chen, seeing the look on Wen Tianli’s face, smiled slightly. Success!
Wen Tianli had taken the bait.
For such a gambler, the hardest part was to pique his interest!
And Ye Chen had done just that.
Wen Tianli stared at Ye Chen and asked, “Young man, can you restore that Demon Iron?”
Restore the Demon Iron?
Ye Chen inwardly laughed. Leaving aside the Extreme Evil Energy, which had not been fully refined, but had already completely integrated into his Divine Ape Blood, it was impossible to force it out of his body again. And even if possible, he would not spit out the gains already in his mouth.
However, did he need to restore the Demon Iron?
All that mattered was winning.
Ye Chen smiled and said, “I can, but I can’t restore it for nothing. Elder Wen, are you interested in making a bet with me?”
“A bet?” A sharp light suddenly flashed in Wen Tianli’s eyes!
Ye Chen was actually willing to bet with him?
Betting required equivalent stakes. Even though he was an old gambler, if Ye Chen couldn’t come up with a reasonable price, he wouldn’t be qualified to gamble with Wen Tianli at all!
As for the likes of one’s life?
Heh, the life of a Sealed Gate existence? To him, Wen Tianli, it was worthless!
However, restoring the Demon Iron was a different matter!
Immediately, Wen Tianli said solemnly, “Young man, how do you want to bet?”
Ye Chen gazed at Wen Tianli and slowly said, “Elder, do you have a Dragonheart Fruit in your possession?”
“Yes!”
“Let’s bet on whether I, Ye Chen, can take first place in this selection competition! How about it? As far as I know, the winner of the selection competition gets to receive a treasure from the Divine Alliance. If I win, I want nothing else but that Dragonheart Fruit, and if I don’t get the first place, then I’ll restore the Demon Iron to its original state!”
Wen Tianli’s eyes flashed repeatedly, and after a moment, he nodded, “Alright! However, young man, you’d better actually have a way to restore the Demon Iron. If you lose and cannot restore it, heh heh, you should know that what I, Wen Tianli, hate the most is someone who can’t fulfill a betting promise!”
Ye Chen heard this and simply smiled, not saying a word.
He wasn’t really planning to welsh on the bet against Wen Tianli, nothing for nothing, but for Chu Ying’s recovery, he had no choice but to resort to this stratagem.
Besides, since he had bet, there was no way he could lose!
He will never settle for second place!
This is Ye Chen’s confidence, his pride!
Wen Tianli, however, sneered in secret. Heh, boy, do you think that by winning the first place in the Physical Test, you become invincible? That you can reach the heavens?
You can’t even begin to imagine what it means to be recognized by the Divine Kingdom as a Divine Body!
He didn’t waste further words and directly announced, “The second trial, the Divine Trial! What constitutes a God? A God is belief, is the Dao heart. Martial Arts Cultivators seeking the ultimate path of martial arts go against the heavens, crossing countless obstacles. A steadfast Dao heart is thus extremely important. And the strength of the Dao heart often relates to the divine soul. The second trial will test everyone’s Dao heart!”
With that said, he raised his hand, and a fist-sized pearl radiating seven-colored brilliance appeared before Wen Tianli.
Wen Tianli said indifferently, “I will personally conduct the second Divine Trial. Who will come first?”
“I will!”
At this moment, a tall and thin young man with deep-set eyes and at the Sixth Level of Great Void stepped forward. He was Zhao Sheng, who ranked eighth in the Physical Test.
Zhao Sheng’s eyes flickered slightly; he was the last one in the Physical Test, and the results were poor. Without any notable performance, even a Fourth-class Sect might not take him in, so he was the first to stand up for the Divine Trial.
Regardless of the outcome, at least this might slightly improve the impression the powerhouses from the Third and Fourth-class Sects have of him.
Wen Tianli nodded and asked, “Are you ready?”
“Ready!”
Suddenly, a surging spiritual sense burst forth from Wen Tianli, pouring into the seven-colored pearl. In the next moment, the pearl flashed with a seven-colored light, and a dazzling beam of light instantly entered Zhao Sheng’s forehead!
Upon seeing this, Ye Chen’s expression changed slightly. Wen Tianli’s soul power is so strong!
Even with many blessings and possessing the Mental Demon Body, he still could not compare to Wen Tianli in terms of spiritual sense!
Moreover, the moment Wen Tianli’s spiritual sense erupted, Ye Chen clearly felt that Wen Tianli was not a soul cultivator!
This could only mean that Wen Tianli’s strength and realm were far too superior to Ye Chen’s!
The divine light in Zhao Sheng’s eyes quickly dimmed, falling into chaos. His face showed a look of bewilderment.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths…
Three breaths after the seven-colored beam entered Zhao Sheng’s forehead, his expression drastically changed!
He suddenly became pale as death, and an extreme terror appeared on his face. His whole body’s aura became incredibly chaotic, and within him, it was as if something was about to uncontrollably erupt. The entire person looked as if he was on the verge of collapse!
Everyone was a bit stunned…
What exactly did Zhao Sheng see? Why was he so terrified?
Aren’t all the geniuses who have come this far tenacious by nature and possess a solid Dao heart?
Why, after just three breaths, does it seem like they are about to collapse?
The fourth breath…
“Ahhh!” Zhao Sheng suddenly let out a scream of agony, his aura fluctuating wildly, and his eyes turned blood red, showing faint signs of entering a demonized state!
It was at this moment that Wen Tianli waved his hand, causing the glow on the pearl to instantly dissipate.
Zhao Sheng’s eyes also cleared at the same moment.
Now, he was gasping heavily, with his entire robe drenched in cold sweat!
He had heard of such Divine Trials before; generally, it involves throwing the Martial Arts Cultivator into a magical world, facing the thing they fear the most. Before the start of the Divine Trial, Zhao Sheng had already prepared himself mentally, repeatedly telling himself that what he was about to see were illusions, not to take them seriously!
But when he was really shot into the magical world by the seven-colored beam, he forgot all that!
The only thing he could feel was the most, most, most genuine fear!
Everyone watching Zhao Sheng couldn’t help but swallow, realizing this Divine Trial seemed to be much more difficult than the Physical Test!
Wen Tianli glanced at Zhao Sheng and said lightly, “Zhao Sheng, four breaths. Next.”
Hearing this, Zhao Sheng’s face turned ashen; with such a result, he was almost certain that he would be eliminated…
At this moment, Lin Yu stepped forward and saluted Wen Tianli, “Thank you for your efforts, senior.”
His face was tense, and his heart was also uncertain, but he had to go on. His situation was similar to Zhao Sheng’s; if he showed timidity and retreated now, it would be dangerous…
After all, daring to challenge is also a part of the Divine Trial.
Wen Tianli nodded, and just like before, a beam of light entered Lin Yu’s forehead.
