#490 - Chapter 498: The top of the proud North Mountain!
Whoosh!
Jiang Ning arrived at Arena Number Nine.
At this moment, a burly man with a single horn, a height of thirty feet, muscles bulging like intertwined dragons, and a body seemingly cast from molten steel, was already waiting for him on Arena Number Nine.
He looked at Jiang Ning with a cold and stern gaze, filled with ferocity.
“Haha, newcomer, you've come to deliver points, and I'll accept them without any courtesy.”
A rough laugh echoed.
“Don't think that just because you're a Ninth-Level Chaos Controller, I'll be afraid of you.”
“I've killed quite a few Chaos Controllers in my hands.”
Controller Rong Jun was a remarkable talent even among the direct disciples.
Coupled with his innate, boundless strength, his combat power was naturally extraordinary.
Many peak Controllers had fallen as his defeated opponents.
“Is that so?”
“When the time comes, I hope you won't regret it.”
A hint of a smile appeared on the corner of Jiang Ning's lips.
He had already concealed his identity information.
Even Old Ancestor Beishan didn't have the highest authority to obtain his information.
Naturally, he had no concerns.
He could use all his strength without any concealment.
And rake in a wave of points.
This opportunity was only available once, and Jiang Ning had to seize it.
After all, once he defeated many experts and everyone knew how powerful he was, naturally no one would be willing to bet points with him.
At this time, many direct disciples also ran to Arena Number Nine to watch the battle.
“Damn, that kid Rong Jun actually got a bargain.”
“Ten billion points. Isn't it easy to bully a newcomer?”
Looking at the two people already standing on the arena, everyone wore a face of disappointment.
As a super force, the overlord of the Southern Star System, Beishan Holy Sect, which one of them wasn't a super genius?
Fighting beyond their level was as simple as eating and drinking.
Of course, although this Unknown was a new direct disciple.
But to be able to become a direct disciple was naturally extraordinary.
At least direct disciples with the Seventh-Level Controller realm dared to accept the challenge letter.
If it were outside, even direct disciples of Chaos Dominators dared to kill Chaos Controllers.
After all, these direct disciples were all remarkable talents selected from thousands upon tens of thousands of star regions.
They received guidance from the best teachers and cultivated with the best resources.
Each one of them was freakishly powerful.
“Who do you think will win?”
“Rong Jun has the highest probability of winning.”
“Everyone hurry up, the betting odds for Arena Number Nine are open. Rong Jun's victory pays half, Unknown's victory pays double.”
The watching direct disciples began to place their bets one after another.
Gambling existed everywhere, and even powerful cultivators enjoyed this sense of excitement.
And the largest betting pool on the Peak of Beishan was opened by the First Direct Disciple, the Young Sect Master Zhou Tianyi.
“Prepare to die!”
Without any extra nonsense, Rong Jun directly made his move.
He summoned a strange stone axe in his hand and slashed it towards Jiang Ning.
The entire void trembled, stirring up a violent hurricane.
Jiang Ning summoned a long sword, and sword energy erupted, enveloping his entire body, transforming into countless sword shadows, and went to meet the attack.
Boom!
After one move, Jiang Ning pretended to retreat dozens of meters, while Rong Jun remained where he was.
Jiang Ning didn't defeat Rong Jun with one move.
He had to make it look like it was difficult for him to win against Rong Jun.
Otherwise, if he showed himself to be too powerful,
Would anyone dare to bet with him in a martial arts contest?
Jiang Ning would lose the opportunity to gain a wave of points.
“Hahaha, is that all you've got?”
“This ten billion points is indeed a free gift.”
“I'll give you, this new disciple, a lesson. There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers among the direct disciples, and you must restrain your sharpness.”
Seeing Jiang Ning at a disadvantage after the first move, Rong Jun laughed triumphantly.
“This Unknown's sword dao realm isn't weak, otherwise he wouldn't be able to advance to a direct disciple, but it's a pity, there's still some gap between him and Rong Jun.”
“Rong Jun really got a big bargain.”
The watching direct disciples all felt regret and sighed.
Blaming themselves for being slow, and not getting this bargain.
“Is that so? Then defeat me first.”
Jiang Ning waved his sword and once again attacked Rong Jun.
“Hmph, courting death.”
Rong Jun roared loudly and swung his stone axe, sweeping across the army.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The two sides fought fiercely in the arena.
In the void, it was filled with various lights of swords, lights of magical powers and secret techniques.
Rong Jun now felt a sense of madness in his heart.
He was completely at an advantage, but every time he always felt that he was a little bit away from being able to kill the opponent.
“Roar, roar, roar…”
Rong Jun roared towards the sky.
The single horn on his forehead flashed with light, and secret patterns rose.
His entire body actually began to grow rapidly.
Until it stopped at a height of a hundred feet.
His body exuded an extremely powerful and terrifying aura of power.
This move was extremely powerful, but the disadvantage was that it would reduce his own speed.
“Kill!”
Rong Jun raised the stone axe with both hands and chopped it towards Jiang Ning.
The power of this axe felt like it was going to split the entire universe apart.
It was filled with unparalleled power, and the entire Arena Number Nine was shaking violently.
A sneer appeared on the corner of Jiang Ning's lips.
Whoosh!
His speed exploded to the extreme, so fast that it was invisible to the naked eye.
Like a streak of aurora, he swung his sword towards Rong Jun's weakness.
“Pfft!”
Rong Jun's axe missed.
And his body began to spurt blood.
“Bastard!”
“I… I was actually defeated? How is that possible?”
In disbelief and unwillingness, Rong Jun's body, which was a 100% real simulation projection, slowly disappeared.
Jiang Ning won.
Ten billion points were automatically added to his account, bringing his total points to twenty billion.
At this time, everyone was also stunned, and stood still in place.
The Unknown, who had been at a disadvantage all along, actually won?
“Speed? Rong Jun was careless. Although he was very strong in power, his speed was not fast. I didn't expect this Unknown's speed to be so fast, and he took down Rong Jun unexpectedly.”
“He really had a stroke of good luck. If Rong Jun had been prepared in advance, he wouldn't have been defeated like this.”
Everyone said one after another.
They were jealous of Unknown's good luck.
This was ten billion points.
After defeating Rong Jun, Jiang Ning once again issued a challenge letter.
It was still a ten billion point bet, with no limit on realm.
In order to prevent direct disciples from losing all their points and having no cultivation resources.
The upper limit of the bet was ten billion points.
Otherwise, Jiang Ning would definitely bet all twenty billion points.
“What? Unknown issued another challenge letter?”
“He just won ten billion points, but it was just good luck, he restrained Rong Jun in speed, does he really think he's invincible?”
“Hehe, how can I miss the opportunity to earn ten billion points?”
As soon as Jiang Ning's challenge letter was issued, the powerful direct disciples scrambled to accept the challenge.
In the end, it was snatched by a peak Controller direct disciple.
Not surprisingly, under Jiang Ning's series of manipulations.
He defeated this challenger in an extremely subtle way.
Giving everyone the feeling that it was good luck that he managed to win.
Therefore, when Jiang Ning issued the challenge letter again, many direct disciples wanted to snatch the challenge letter.
One after another.
To everyone, each opponent felt that Jiang Ning's victory was a coincidence, a stroke of good luck.
Everyone felt that if they made a move, they would definitely be able to defeat Unknown.
They didn't know that Jiang Ning had comprehended countless cultivation techniques and magical powers, and his comprehension and knowledge of the path of cultivation had reached a terrifying realm.
He could easily find the weaknesses of these opponents and create the illusion of a coincidental victory.
Jiang Ning quickly defeated ten opponents.
And obtained one hundred billion points.
For direct disciples, this was already an extremely terrifying huge sum.
It could be exchanged for an ordinary Venerable-level universe magical power.
However, for Jiang Ning, it was still too little.
He needed to comprehend a large number of universe-level cultivation techniques and magical powers to help him break through the 《Hongmeng Heavenly Book》.
“I'll see if your luck is so good.”
“Every time you can manage to defeat your opponent by chance.”
“Unknown's challenge letter has been accepted by me, Ye Qiufeng, no one can rob it from me.”
At this moment, a youth holding a long spear, wearing black clothes, and with a sharp face, arrived at the Peak of Beishan.
The appearance of the black-clothed youth shocked everyone and their faces showed fear.
“It's him, Ye Qiufeng, the existence second only to Senior Sister Li Qingxue in Wanlei Peak.”
“Ranked fifteenth on the Peak of Beishan!”
Apart from Gu Xiyue, there were thirteen Universe Gods among the direct disciples.
Gu Xiyue was ranked fourteenth.
However, with her strength, if she came to the Peak of Beishan again to issue a challenge, she would definitely be able to be on the peak list.
And Ye Qiufeng was able to be ranked fifteenth, it was very obvious that he was already the strongest existence below the Universe Gods among the direct disciples.
He had quite a reputation among the direct disciples, and no one dared to snatch his challenge letter.
“Greetings, Senior Brother Ye.”
“Greetings, Senior Brother Ye.”
Everyone respectfully saluted.
Even those unruly geniuses were filled with awe when they saw Ye Qiufeng.
To be able to become the strongest existence below the Universe Gods among the direct disciples of the Beishan Holy Sect, the strength of his talent and strength could be imagined.
“I hope you, this small fish, can help me lure out the biggest fish.”
Looking at Ye Qiufeng, who was high-spirited and arrogant, a sneer appeared on the corner of Jiang Ning's lips.
Everything was within his plan.
Ye Qiufeng accepted Jiang Ning's challenge letter, and then directly went to Arena Number Nine.
“Kid, I don't believe you're so lucky every time. Today, I'll defeat you.”
“Otherwise, if you leave with a winning streak, we old-timers will lose face.”
Ye Qiufeng said coolly.
His long hair fluttered, and his whole body was filled with fighting spirit.
He didn't underestimate Jiang Ning. To be able to win ten consecutive matches, and his opponents were all Eighth-Level Controllers or Ninth-Level Controllers.
To be able to win consecutively, it was naturally impossible to be just good luck.
“There's no need for nonsense, make your move.”
Jiang Ning made a gesture of invitation.
Ye Qiufeng was already the strongest existence below the Universe Gods.
Jiang Ning didn't need to hold back his strength anymore.
If he really defeated Ye Qiufeng, other direct disciples would not be able to challenge him to make bets again.
After all, this meant the act of giving away points.
Defeating others could be said to be by chance.
But defeating Ye Qiufeng must be true strength.
Jiang Ning planned to defeat Ye Qiufeng with one move.
This was also the most important part of his big game.
Ye Qiufeng was not polite.
He waved the long spear in his hand and attacked Jiang Ning.
Boom!
The spear came out as fast as lightning, and thunder and lightning were wrapped around it, transforming into countless thunder dragons.
The void was shattered, and the terrifying power made everyone present feel their souls tremble.
“What a powerful lightning law, he has already mastered the tenth layer of universe true meaning, it seems that Senior Brother Ye is not far from breaking through to Universe God.”
“There are fifteen Universe Gods among the direct disciples, this is an unprecedented grand occasion.”
Looking at Ye Qiufeng's terrifying move, everyone was shocked.
“Senior Brother Ye is definitely going to win.”
“Below the Universe Gods, no one will be his opponent anymore.”
“Unknown's undefeated myth is finally going to end in Senior Brother Ye's hands.”
Everyone was 100% sure of the ending.
Boom!
Then, facing the shocking move of the spear, Jiang Ning just casually waved a punch and bombarded Ye Qiufeng.
The fist suppressed the galaxy, the power of this fist shattered the starry sky and annihilated the great dao.
The powerful force gathered on the fist, erupting with extremely incredible terrifying power.
“Bang!”
With one punch, he shattered Ye Qiufeng's attack.
“What? He actually blocked my attack with one punch…”
Ye Qingfeng's face was filled with disbelief.
“The sword comes out, exterminate!”
Jiang Ning used his finger as a sword, and a terrifying sword energy pierced towards Ye Qiufeng like a meteor.
Pfft!
Ye Qiufeng's chest was directly torn apart.
He never dreamed that he would be defeated with one move.
Then Ye Qiufeng's 100% simulated body vanished into thin air.
Jiang Ning, win!
This scene shocked the audience.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Unknown defeated Ye Qiufeng with one move?
This was the Peak of Beishan, ranked fifteenth, the strongest existence below the Universe Gods.
“Unknown actually won?”
“What is the origin of him? He actually defeated even Ye Qiufeng, and still in a one-shot kill, it's too unbelievable.”
At this time, everyone also reacted.
“This Unknown has been hiding his strength all along, luring us to end the challenge and earn our points.”
“He is really cheap, my ten billion points.”
Those direct disciples who accepted the challenge, at this moment, their intestines were all green with regret.
“Hehe, fortunately I didn't successfully snatch the challenge letter, otherwise I would have been a big fool.”
The direct disciples who did not accept the challenge were all happily celebrating.
“Is this the so-called Peak of Beishan?”
“There isn't even one that can fight.”
“I'm too disappointed that I don't even have an opponent.”
Jiang Ning looked arrogant and incomparable.
But he had already defeated Ye Qiufeng, who would dare to challenge him to send points?
One by one lowered their heads, accepting Jiang Ning's arrogant insults.
“Not aimed at anyone, everyone present at the Peak of Beishan is trash, there isn't even one that can fight.”
Seeing that no one dared to challenge him, Jiang Ning grew anxious.
He immediately resorted to provocation.
After all, only those on the Peak Ranking could make his grand plan succeed.
"Arrogant! You really think you're invincible, able to look down on everyone at the peak of North Mountain and disregard them?"
A furious voice rang out.
At that moment, a figure shrouded in a mysterious halo descended from the sky.
PS: Both sets of parents talked for a whole night and came to an agreement. We're getting our marriage certificate the day after tomorrow. I'll squeeze in some time to write in my spare moments. After the New Year, I'll settle the wedding as soon as possible, so I can focus on writing and earning money to support my wife, hehe.
The new book is planned for after the wedding. The old book will be updated with four thousand words every day until it's finished.
