Chapter 349 You are not worthy to fight me one-on-one
In the Devouring Sky Beast's Nest Domain, Zheng Qian was unaware that the trial had ended, and he was still standing there looking at the sky.
“Little guy, if you’re scared, give me back the Hongyuan Void Pearl.” Shi Kong stood in the void, looking down at Zheng Qian.
“Senior, taking back something you’ve already given away will damage your reputation.” Zheng Qian said seriously. If Shi Kong really took back the Hongyuan Void Pearl, he would suffer a huge loss.
"Haha, not bad, you have the style of your master back in the day." Shi Kong laughed heartily. Zheng Qian had only been serious and had not shown any fear.
Shi Kong had been secretly observing the 30,000 geniuses who had entered the Twin Absolute Domains. The trial, which took place once every fifty years, was the one where Shi Kong and Tong Tong, the ancestor of the Thunder Clan, were selecting their successors.
When Zheng Qian entered and killed the genius of the Demon Radiance Sect, Shi Kong didn't take it to heart at all. He had played this kind of trick, pretending to be weak while actually being strong, countless times; he was just a bit cunning.
Zheng Qian robbed geniuses from various races, killing his enemies directly and only stealing cultivation techniques and spirit crystals from those he had no enmity with. This was a principle within the Dao, and Shi Kong admired him somewhat. When geniuses from the Southern Region were besieged, Zheng Qian appeared to save them, displaying both courage and resourcefulness. Shi Kong began to pay attention to Zheng Qian.
When Zheng Qian killed You Tong, Shi Kong began to acknowledge his combat prowess. Putting aside other factors, even in his era, Zheng Qian was an exceptionally powerful prodigy. Later, Zheng Qian's act of saving Zhao Mingxiu and Feng Yingte demonstrated his benevolence, which also appealed to Shi Kong.
With his God-like perspective, Shi Kong was certain that even if Zhao Mingxiu and Feng Yingte couldn't offer any reward, Zheng Qian would still save them.
In the Chaotic Thunder Pool, Zheng Qian did not blindly accept the baptism of the Chaotic Thunder Pool, but instead searched for the Devouring Void Beast's Nest Domain with a purpose, which shows that he is a resolute person who is planned, decisive and not influenced by immediate interests.
Upon seeing the Divine Constellation, Dianli felt the call of inheritance, and her first thought was how to reach the Divine Constellation to receive it. Zheng Qian, on the other hand, prioritized safety, decisively abandoning any opportunities beyond his means.
Being able to resist temptation is a great wisdom.
It was precisely because of Zheng Qian's wisdom in resisting temptation, after summarizing Zheng Qian's previous performance, and considering that the Thunder Clan Ancestor had passed the Purple Heaven Thunder Pearl to Dianli, that Shikong decided to give the Hongyuan Void Pearl to Zheng Qian.
Zheng Qian was able to obtain the Hongyuan Void Pearl partly due to his own outstanding performance, and partly because the Thunder Clan Ancestor passed the Purple Heaven Thunder Pearl to Dianli. With the Thunder Clan Ancestor finding a successor, the Thunder Devouring Twin Absolute Domains would be without thunder, and Devouring Void no longer wanted to wait for a destined person, so this opportunity fell to Zheng Qian.
Only now did Shi Kong truly believe that handing the Hongyuan Void Pearl over to Zheng Qian was the right thing to do. Because after Zheng Qian created his own soul technique and became even more powerful, he felt not joy or arrogance, but worry.
"To be the first to worry about the world's troubles"—this simple phrase—how many people in the world can truly do it? Even if someone can, they may not have the vision to see the root of excellence.
"Senior, I have a question and hope to get your clarification." Zheng Qian bowed. He had many questions, but he had to ask them one by one. If he asked them all at once, Shi Kong would disappear without him, and he wouldn't be able to ask any of them.
"Ask away." Shi Kong was just bored; he was merely a remnant soul who could control the Thunder Devouring Twin Domains.
"How can an ordinary person like me become a god?"
Shi Kong's lips twitched. He thought Zheng Qian would ask about cultivation level, the Hongyuan Void Pearl, or perhaps want cultivation techniques. He never imagined that Zheng Qian would be so audacious as to directly ask how to become a god.
"Step onto the path of invincibility, compete for the divine throne, and you will naturally become a god." Devourer of the Void replied to the vast emptiness, which could be considered as giving a clear direction.
Zheng Qian was very satisfied with Shi Kong's answer, and then asked, "How can an ordinary person like me achieve immortality and become invincible in the world?"
Shi Kong glanced at Zheng Qian: "Immortality is eternal life. No one can defeat you. You are invincible. Now, go find your eternal life and walk your invincible path."
Zheng Qian was enveloped in white light and disappeared into the Devouring Void Beast's Nest Domain.
Shi Kong was speechless after Zheng Qian's question. In his previous life, he had one foot in the realm of gods and was also searching for the path to godhood. The question of being invincible in the world had always troubled him.
Who dares to claim invincibility in the world?
Therefore, Shi Kong couldn't answer Zheng Qian's question and had no choice but to send him out of the Thunder Devouring Domain. If Zheng Qian seized the opportunity to ask about spatial techniques, Shi Kong would still give him some advice.
Unfortunately, Zheng Qian was too ambitious, and Shi Kong was destined to be unable to answer his question.
Zheng Qian's thoughts were simple: the Devouring Heaven Technique in his mind was powerful, but he dared not rely on it as his sole means of support. Because it did not belong to him.
Shi Kong can see levels that Zheng Qian cannot, and he finds him very interesting, even participating in the game. So far, Zheng Qian still doesn't know what kind of game it is? Or rather, what is a game?
Creating his own cultivation method and forging his own path—that's what Zheng Qian truly desires. If Shi Kong's guidance and instruction are also part of the game, wouldn't he be following the rules set by the game's creators?
For safety's sake, Zheng Qian decided to proceed slowly and that it was more reliable to walk on his own.
Many forces have gradually left the Seven Linked Mountains, and most of their geniuses have already returned. Those who were not teleported back need not wait, as they will remain in the Twin Absolute Domain forever.
"Grandmaster, my master has entered the depths of the Convergence Domain. I haven't seen him since he teleported away. So I don't know if he's safe inside." Li Zun reported to Yun Youzi, his eyes filled with sorrow.
What an outstanding master! How could he have died so young?
Yun Youzi's expression remained unchanged as he calmly said, "It's alright. This place is quite far from the sect. You should go back first."
At first, Yun Youzi was very worried about Zheng Qian, but now he is not worried at all. Instead, he is looking forward to Zheng Qian having some special opportunity.
Yun Youzi didn't know how powerful Pan Jiu was, and even his identity was only a guess. But Yun Youzi certainly knew that Pan Jiu wouldn't sit idly by and watch Zheng Qian be in danger.
Pan Jiu absorbed Zheng Qian's two ropes, which possessed divine properties, thus incurring a karmic debt to Zheng Qian. Therefore, if Zheng Qian were in any danger, Pan Jiu would not stand idly by.
Yun Youzi was very pleased to have figured out the key point. The fact that Zheng Qian had not yet been teleported out indicated that his opportunity was extraordinary and no longer subject to ordinary rules.
"Who dares to impersonate me in the Twin Absolute Domains?" You Haoshen suddenly roared, causing the Seven Alliance Mountains to tremble.
Yun Youzi glanced at You Haoshen, and his voice abruptly stopped, unable to utter another sound.
"How dare you! I am here, when did it become your place to shout like that?" Yun Youzi's voice was icy. If You Haoshen didn't know what was good for him, he would storm the Nanyeji Sect and seize some good treasures for himself.
Fear flashed in You Haoshen's eyes. He had been blinded by the news about You Laohu and had forgotten that there was such an important figure as Yun Youzi here. His shouting would naturally offend the old man, and it was only natural that he would be taught a lesson.
Yu Laohu didn't have such keen insight and said, "Senior, you said that anyone at the same level can challenge Zheng Qian. Now, I, Yu Laohu, will step forward and let Zheng Qian defeat him within three moves with just one hand."
Yun Youzi smiled dismissively and did not reply.
"Hey, you damn tiger! I even went to help you when you got beaten up, but I didn't expect you to challenge Zheng Qian as soon as you came out. Believe me, when Zheng Qian comes out, he can beat you down with one hand." Fan Tielan immediately jumped up and cursed You Laohu. She didn't care which sect You Laohu was a disciple of. She just couldn't agree to ruin Zheng Qian's reputation.
Yu Laohu laughed and said, "Then call him out for a one-on-one fight."
Just then, a white light fell from the sky, and Zheng Qian's voice rang out behind You Laohu.
"You are not worthy to fight me one-on-one. Tell everyone from your Nan Ye Ji Sect to come at me together."
