Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 379 Prayer Star Palace
The female inspector paused, then looked around.

She continued speaking only after everyone's eyes were on her.

"The higher the ranking of a house, the more hidden benefits it holds."

"Therefore, the project team encourages you to take on the challenge."

"There were 40 people present."

"Everyone has one chance to take on a challenge."

She stepped forward and held up the screen in her hand.

Its surface shone brilliantly, projecting a ranking light screen that was reflected in everyone's eyes.

"No more nonsense."

The female inspector raised her voice and pointed to the bottom of the list.

"40th place, Wang Xin."

"Choose your opponent."

Boom!

As his voice fell.

In the center of the mountain foothills, a light barrier descended with a deafening roar!
The light curtain is completely transparent.

A huge area was set aside on the flat ground at the foot of the mountain.

Everyone present could clearly see what was happening.

"Inspector."

In a corner of the crowd, a young man stepped forward and bowed to Wang Anran.

Wang Anran sighed, said nothing, but pointed to the rankings, indicating again that he should choose an opponent.

Obviously.

She met this new man, Wang.

Under the spotlight.

Wang Xin frowned, staring at the ranking screen, looking for a challenger.

After several tens of seconds, he finally spoke: "I choose number 31, Liu Yu."

not far away.

Liu Yu took a step forward, his expression grim, and said in a low voice, "How dare you look down on me like this!"

Wang Xin didn't speak, but turned around, walked into the isolation light barrier, and waited for the battle to begin.

Upon seeing this, Liu snorted coldly and strode inside.

Wang Anran took the identity device and pressed it repeatedly, causing the isolation light curtain to close completely.

The challenge has officially begun!
Both were Earth Moon Humans. Now that their spiritual energy was suppressed, their physical strength had the upper hand, and in the blink of an eye, they were locked in fierce combat!
The light burst forth with a series of loud bangs, clearly reaching everyone's ears!

"Jiang Jian, who do you think will win between these two?"

Lu Chen turned his head to look at Jiang Jian.

The next second, Lu Chen's expression turned somewhat astonished.

I don’t know when it started.

Jiang Jian actually took out a spirit-gathering stone, stood at the edge of the foot of the mountain, and began to cultivate!

Hearing Lu Chen's question.

Jiang Jian did not stop cultivating, but opened her eyes and said softly, "Wang Xin".

Lu Chen raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why?"

Jiang Jian held the Spirit Stone, his body surging with spiritual energy, and said, "Intuition."

Hear this.

Lu Chen shrugged, clearly not believing it.

He turned his head and looked at the center of the open space, saying, "But now it seems that Liu Yu's offensive is fierce, and Wang Xin is struggling to defend himself and has already fallen into a disadvantageous position."

Jiang Jian smiled and said, "Based on my guess, you probably haven't cultivated the ability of insight."

Lu Chen did not deny it, saying, "I once cultivated with Ancestor Ye for a period of time. What he taught me were spiritual techniques, which are good for offense and defense."

"As for auxiliary techniques, I haven't had time to learn them yet."

"Originally, I planned to focus on cultivating some branch techniques after breaking through to the Divine Palace."

"But now, with the Mercury war underway, the original training plan has to be postponed again and again."

aside.

Jiang Jian said, "Therefore, there are things I can see that you cannot."

Lu Chen glanced at Jiang Jian and shook his head again: "Your strength is indeed greater than mine, and I admit it wholeheartedly."

"But my eyesight is definitely no worse than yours; I rarely make mistakes."

"Liu Yu will surely win this battle between the two!"

Lu Chen's tone was very confident, "I forgot to tell you, one of the opponents I encountered in the four-person melee was Liu Yu!"

"Although this person is not ranked high, their overall strength is very strong!"

While talking.

The fierce battle on the field gradually intensified.

The two primarily used physical techniques, interspersed with spiritual methods, exchanging punches and kicks in a fierce and heated battle!

Wang Xin's physical strength was slightly weaker.

As time went on, their disadvantages became apparent, and they were completely overwhelmed by Liu Yu, with almost no power to fight back.

Many spectators believed that Wang Xin was about to be defeated.

Those who knew him sighed and expressed their regret.

Especially not far away, there was the female inspector who was presiding over the ranking competition.

Upon seeing this, he bit his lip tightly, his expression not looking good.

"At this point, Wang Xin has no chance of turning the tide."

Lu Chen's wording was affirmative.

Jiang Jian remained silent, only gazing at Wang Xin from afar.

Deep within his pupils, a frosty vortex rose.

In his observation, Wang Xin's spiritual energy still had a lot of reserves that he hadn't used!
Perhaps it's due to solid cultivation, or perhaps it's due to tempering of the acupoints.

Whatever the reason.

Jiang Jian had already figured it out.

Wang Xin, like himself, has resistance to the Moon Gazing Spirit Forbidden Array!
He has been hiding his strength!
On the field.

Liu Yu's lips curled into a smug smile as he threw another punch, saying, "Wang Xin, you still won't admit defeat!"

boom!
Wang Xin resisted with all his might, retreating without answering.

next second.

Liu Yu's face contorted with rage as he channeled all his strength into his fists: "It's time to end this!"

Under the suppression of the spirit-sealing array, all the spiritual energy that it could mobilize was also activated and surged forth!

Boom!

A powerful punch is thrown, and it grows larger as it hits the wind.

A fist shadow the size of a wheel appeared, crushing the air as it hurtled towards Wang Xin!

Wang Xin stood still, watching the approaching fist, seemingly dumbfounded, without making any move.

"Jiang Jian, your intuition is wrong."

Lu Chen smiled. "I originally thought you had never missed anything."

Jiang remained expressionless and silent upon meeting him.

Female Inspector Wang Anran had an even more complicated expression, turning her head away as if she couldn't bear to look anymore.

boom!
Click!

Wang Xin was hit hard, and his protective gear shattered into light!

He was lying on the ground with broken bones and tendons, blood seeping from all seven orifices!

The outcome is decided! Liu Yu landed in front of him, turned to look at the female inspector: "Inspector."

Wang Anran was silent for a moment, then picked up his identity device and said in a hoarse voice, "Liu Yu has won, so there is no need for them to exchange houses."

Facing the gazes of the crowd, Liu Yu strode out of the isolation barrier, exuding the aura of a victor.

in the venue.

Wang Xin took a breath, struggled to his feet, slowly walked out of the arena, found a corner, and healed his wounds alone.

soon.

Wang Anran stopped looking at him and instead looked down at the identity device, continuing to call out the next name.

at the same time.

Lu Chen was very happy and glanced at Jiang Jian: "What do you mean?"

Since the beginning, when I met Jiang Jian in the Seventh Realm.

Lu Chen always felt that he couldn't see through or understand Jiang Jian.

This feeling left him with a persistent, pent-up emotion deep within him.

At this moment.

They finally managed to catch Jiang Jian, but he got thwarted.

This immediately improved Lu Chen's mood.

Jiang Jian frowned slightly, gazing at Wang Xin in the distance, and remained silent.

Wang Xin has indeed been hiding his true strength.

At least in terms of spiritual energy, a lot has been hidden.

Jiang Jian originally thought that Wang Xin would suddenly unleash his power and defeat Liu Yu.

But clearly, that's not the case.

Jiang Jian was unaware of why Wang Xin would deliberately fail.

However, these things have nothing to do with me.

"I guessed wrong."

Jiang Jian, holding the Spirit Stone, readily admitted it, quite decisively.

Lu Chen, dressed in black, smiled even more broadly.

But soon.

He stopped laughing, stared at Jiang Jian, and his expression became solemn.

Lu Chen suddenly realized that what he wanted to see was Jiang Jian finding excuses and using other reasons to shirk responsibility.

because.

This is the kind of response Lu Chen imagines he would do.

Thus.

The halo that Jiang Jian held in his heart would be shattered immediately.

but.

Jiang Jian didn't say a single word of nonsense, but readily admitted defeat.

This made Lu Chen realize.

Jiang Jian has always remained in the same position, never changing.

"Lend me a spirit-gathering stone, I'll return it to you when I get back."

Lu Chen turned his head to the side and whispered.

Jiang Jian lightly flipped his hand, took out a new Spirit Stone, and handed it to Lu Chen.

Lu Chen took the Spirit Stone, walked to a corner alone, and began to cultivate.

Jiang Jian didn't pay attention to Lu Chen's emotional changes.

While cultivating with the Spirit Stone, he also watched the battle closely, carefully observing the fighting techniques of these lunar prodigies.

The house ranking competition continues, one after another.

Jiang Jian noticed it.

Those with higher rankings have some degree of resistance to the Moon Gazing Spirit Forbidden Array.

only.

Their resistance, overall, is at a very low level, close to non-existent.

Compared to myself, I am far inferior.

Among these people, Wang Xin's resistance to spirit suppression is so good that he can even rank in the top five.

"It's been a long time since any famous prodigies have emerged in the terrestrial world."

A somewhat hoarse voice came from the side.

Hear sounds.

Jiang Jian turned his head to the side, and the young man's pale face came into view.

It was Wang Xin.

Wang Xin walked to Jiang Jian's side, his tone somewhat dejected: "I've been to the surface world before. The cultivation environment there is terrible. It's truly remarkable that you've cultivated to this level."

"The previous earthly prodigy who was famous throughout the four realms."

"It was more than a hundred years ago, Shen Xi of Baiye Prefecture."

Here, we are some distance from the crowd.

Most people were watching the battle in the arena and didn't notice this scene.

Just a dozen meters away, Lu Chen, who was cultivating, opened his eyes and looked in this direction.

Jiang smiled and maintained basic politeness, saying, "Guanxi Pavilion Master Shen Xi made great contributions in the Moon Realm back then, successively killing dozens of extraterrestrial gods. I also admire him very much."

Wang Xin, dressed in tattered clothes with bloodstains on his body, reached out his hand to Jiang Jian: "My name is Wang Xin, and I come from the Qishen Star Palace."

Jiang Jian's heart stirred slightly, and she reached out to shake his hand: "My name is Jiang Jian, and I come from Linjiang Prefecture on the surface."

Wang Xin nodded, said nothing more, and limped away.

As Jiang Jian watched his retreating figure, the smile on her face faded, and her brows furrowed slightly.

There is a real planetary palace for praying to the gods on the moon.

Among them were not only the Star Luo Clan, but also the Earth Moon Clan.

This Wang Xin, being a member of the Earth Moon Clan, behaves very strangely.

They were complete strangers to him.

Despite the impropriety, he stepped forward and rashly struck up a conversation.

Jiang Jian simply did not believe that Wang Xin's actions were without any purpose.

just.

Too little information was obtained.

Jiang Jian couldn't see the truth for the time being.

"Whatever."

"Self-cultivation is the most important thing."

Jiang Jian suppressed his thoughts and put the matter aside.

Calm your mind and continue your practice.

time flies.

Someone successfully completed the challenge and exchanged for the house they wanted.

Many more people failed the challenge and remained where they were.

"It's my turn."

Lu Chen stood up, his eyes sharp, and his aura changed.

a few seconds ago.

The female inspector called out Lu Chen's name.
