Chapter 784: First Kill of the Spirit Ranking Battle

Inside the space of the Spirit God Ring, an Ice Coffin lay horizontally.

Above the Ice Coffin, a stunningly beautiful figure sat cross-legged.

She wore a snow-white long dress, her exquisite facial features flawless, and her long, silvery-white hair shimmered with a gentle Spirit Light, like three thousand galaxies cascading down.

A suppressed yet powerful aura surged endlessly within her body.

Wang Jianqiang's gaze paused on Xiaobai, a hint of a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.

Has she reached Integration Stage Perfection?

It seems Xiaobai has been cultivating very diligently these past years.

After leaving the Alchemy Emperor Secret Realm back then, he had specifically refined some Pills for Xiaobai to help her recover her Soul Power.

They ranged from Sixth-tier low-grade to Sixth-tier High-grade.

After the Spirit Ranking Battle, it would be time to find an opportunity to refine some Seventh-tier pills for her.

With the assistance of Seventh-tier Perfect Pills, she would certainly be able to quickly recover to the Void Refinement Stage.

After coming back to his senses, Wang Jianqiang did not disturb Xiaobai.

He looked at Mu Lingxi with a chuckle.

Mu Lingxi understood, and walked with him toward a corner.

……

Three days later.

Xiaobai's brows furrowed; her closed eyes looked toward the distance, and her lips moved slightly, as if she were muttering something.

Two more days passed, and she gritted her silver teeth, as if she could no longer endure it, and glared fiercely into the distance.

Her figure flickered, turning into a wisp of light smoke that drifted into the Ice Coffin.

Another five days later.

Wang Jianqiang and Mu Lingxi prepared to leave the Spirit God Ring.

Before leaving, Wang Jianqiang looked at the location of the Ice Coffin; Xiaobai, who had previously been hovering outside the Ice Coffin, had vanished without a trace.

The two exchanged a glance and smiled slightly.

Hehehe~

Then, with a flash of Spirit Light, the two disappeared simultaneously.

After the two departed, a wisp of light smoke drifted out from inside the Ice Coffin.

Xiaobai appeared.

She gritted her silver teeth, her pretty face flushed red, and she spat lightly.

That bastard.

Too wicked!

……

"Senior Brother, where are we going now?"

Outside.

Wang Jianqiang picked up the Spirit God Ring from the ground and put it back on his hand.

Upon hearing Mu Lingxi's question, he pondered for a moment and said, "The first round of the Spirit Ranking Battle lasts for one year; less than a month has passed, so let's just wander around for now."

Mu Lingxi nodded, then, as if thinking of something, a cold expression appeared on her pretty face, "Wasn't that guy named Luo Hao quite arrogant outside the Earth Vein Stele? Why don't we go find him and have some fun with him?"

Wang Jianqiang thought for a moment and smiled, "That works too."

Xuan Che must be harvested when the deadline for the first round approaches to maximize the benefits.

Before that, playing with Luo Hao wouldn't be bad.

Just consider it a way to pass the time.

Afterward, the two took flight and headed off in a random direction.

The two had no intention of concealing their auras in the slightest.

They even deliberately spread their auras, as if afraid others wouldn't notice them.

Extremely arrogant.

On an oasis about ten miles in diameter, filled with flowers, grass, and babbling streams, a large tree formed from Spirit Light hovered in the air.

Hundreds or thousands of roots drifted in the air like tentacles.

Countless particle-like powers converged into beams of light, connecting to the roots of the large tree.

Powerful energy was continuously transported into the large tree.

The branches of the large tree were like long whips, lashing out incessantly.

A young man dodged and weaved, continuously evading and resisting the large tree's attacks.

Suddenly.

Spirit Light surged around the young man, his speed exploded, and like a sharp arrow, he pierced through the blockade of branches and penetrated the trunk of the large tree.

The next moment.

The large tree shattered with a boom, turning into a stream of air that drifted toward the top of the young man's head.

With a thought from the young man, a golden dragon about a zhang long appeared above his head and swallowed the stream of air in one gulp.

The body length of the golden dragon, which had barely reached one zhang, increased rapidly, reaching one zhang and one chi in the blink of an eye.

As the large tree crumbled.

In the ten-mile-wide oasis below, the vegetation withered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the stream dried up.

In just a short moment, the oasis disappeared completely.

The young man looked down and shook his head.

Too slow.

A ten-mile oasis is merely the lowest-level existence among the Fortune Spirits.

Killing one only allows one's fortune to grow by one foot.

His luck was not considered good; after the Spirit Ranking Battle began, all he found were the lowest-level Fortune Spirits.

His Fortune Golden Dragon has only barely reached one zhang and one foot so far.

"It is said that killing a Cultivator allows one to inherit the Fortune Power on their person; perhaps I should change my line of thinking."

A cold glint flashed in his eyes.

The faction he hails from can only be ranked as second-rate when looking across Youzhou, inferior to top-tier factions like the Beast Taming Sect and the Sacred Palace, and even less comparable to a behemoth like the Youyun Holy Land.

Yet, he does not believe he is weaker than the heaven-gifted geniuses from those top-tier factions.

He came from humble beginnings and grew step by step to where he is now.

Even with a natural disadvantage in cultivation resources, he still reached the Eighth-Order Will Stage.

Although, the Eighth-Order Will Stage is already his limit.

But he does not believe it is due to a lack of talent.

He is confident that if he had been supplied with abundant resources from a young age, his foundation would certainly be stronger, and breaking through to the Ninth-Order Will Stage would be easy.

Even though he is currently only at the Eighth-Order Will Stage, he does not believe he is weaker than those Ninth-Order Will Stage Cultivators.

Cultivation level is merely one of the standards for measuring combat power.

With his attainments in Technique and his unparalleled combat experience, fighting above his level would surely be as simple as eating and drinking.

Of course, this is only a conjecture.

In the region he hails from, he is the only Eighth-Order Will Stage genius, and there isn't even a Seventh-Order Will Stage Cultivator below him.

He has yet to fight a genius of the same level.

Even so, he remains full of confidence.

Just at this moment.

He suddenly sensed two auras approaching.

Two Seventh-Order Will Stage Cultivators?

Sensing the strength of these two auras, he felt a surge of joy.

"Running into this young master, consider yourselves unlucky."

Amidst a cold laugh, he soared into the sky.

He transformed into a streak of rainbow light and flew toward the direction from which the two auras came, his speed astonishing.

This is a Technique he has refined; he considers his attainments in it to be extremely high.

In fact, this is the case.

He once competed in speed against a fellow Disciple at the Transformation Stage, and he did not fall behind in the slightest.

Under such astonishing speed, after a short while, two figures appeared in his field of vision.

He noticed the Sect Token at their waists.

A cold sneer appeared on his face.

Beast Taming Sect Disciples?

If it were in the outside world, he might be somewhat wary, but here, there is no need for any scruples when killing one another.

"To have only cultivated to the Seventh-Order Will Stage in a powerful sect like the Beast Taming Sect, you two are truly trash."

"Being able to become the resources for this young master to step onto the peak of the Spirit Ranking is your honor."

He let out a cold laugh, his speed increasing.

In an instant, he rushed before Wang Jianqiang and Mu Lingxi.
