Chapter 645 - 437: Witness to Ascension
"Who would have thought that Earth is hiding so many masters! It seems my opportunity to ascend hasn’t arrived yet; there’s no point in disgracing myself here."
The speaker was the middle-aged man who had won the first round.
He raised his hand and bowed, saluting those powerful figures who had appeared!
Then his figure floated down to the ground and vanished without a trace.
He didn’t even have the thought of contending with them and deliberately forfeited!
After all!
The difference in strength between the two sides was simply too great!
There was no need to even attempt!
Besides, he was very young—even among the gods.
Even if he missed this opportunity, all he needed was to return to Earth and cultivate in seclusion for a few thousand more years, and he’d have another chance!
And perhaps!
By then, with his cultivation improved, he could become a formidable figure that no one would dare to challenge!
...
At this moment!
In the sky, not far from the Ascension Gate, seven figures stood there!
The majority of their strengths had surpassed the God King!
However!
There was one exception—
Sunlight Qianyu.
Amidst a group of genuine, unpretentious powerful figures, she, with her youth and brightness, seemed somewhat out of place!
The aura she emitted was as faint as firefly light in their presence!
"Young lady, have you come here to compete with us for the ascension opportunity?"
At that moment!
A kindly-looking old man asked her.
But before she could respond, another elder interjected:
"This young lady, though young, has such cultivation. It’s truly remarkable! She indeed qualifies to battle with us!"
Another elegantly dressed elderly woman chided:
"A bunch of old coots bullying a young girl? Aren’t you ashamed to say it out loud!"
She then addressed Sunlight Qianyu:
"Little girl, don’t worry. With Granny Peony here, I assure you they won’t hurt you!"
This round of battle was supposed to be even more deadly!
Yet instead, the atmosphere was oddly harmonious?
These old folks seemed to know each other!
And each was very civil and polite, speaking softly!
As if this wasn’t a life-and-death battlefield but a tea gathering among old friends!
At this point, Sunlight Qianyu finally spoke:
"Greetings, seniors. I did not come here to fight for the ascension opportunity."
"Rather..."
Sunlight Qianyu paused.
Under the calm scrutiny of several people.
She spoke calmly:
"To invite you, seniors, to witness my path to ascension!"
"?!"
As soon as she said this!
The senior figures present were momentarily stunned!
From Sunlight Qianyu’s tone, it seemed the ascension opportunity was already hers!
As if they didn’t even have the qualification to compete with her!
The scene was quiet for a few seconds.
Finally!
An elder burst into laughter first:
"Hahaha! This young lady is indeed amusing! To be able to speak such words?"
Then came a chorus of laughter!
As if they weren’t taking Sunlight Qianyu’s words seriously!
However!
At the same moment!
Sunlight Qianyu already felt several immensely powerful Divine Senses, vying to probe her strength!
Evidently.
These old folks, each more cautious than the other, were still worried she might have some extraordinary trump card!
Having lived thousands of years!
They had witnessed countless bizarre events firsthand, thus sincerely believing anything was possible!
Could it be this young lady really had some hidden strength?!
But!
After some probing, they realized they were overthinking.
This young lady’s Divine Sense defense wasn’t strong, even to the point of being transparent!
Thus they easily discovered—
Her strength was indeed decent, but only at the level of a God King.
She had no so-called trump card!
With that kind of strength, what could she use to compete with them?
...
Meanwhile!
A Divine Sense transmitted from the sky into Lin Lang’s mind below:
"The strength of these people is too overwhelming; I’m definitely not their opponent."
"Next, it’s up to you."
"Help me ascend!"
