125: Chapter 125 Breakthrough in the Face of Battle!
"Arrogant!"
"Ignorant brat! You will pay the price for your arrogance!"
Ning Yuan's words had thoroughly ignited the fury of the Alien Race Venerable Spirits!
When had they, as venerable Spirits, ever been looked down upon so contemptuously by a junior?
"Fine! Since you wish to die, we shall grant your wish!"
The Golden God Clan Patriarch, enraged to the extreme, laughed instead, a cruel glint flashing in his eyes.
"We won't bully you. Each clan will only send one prodigy below the King-level!"
"If you can defeat them, today's matter will be wiped clean!"
"But if you lose... don't blame us for being merciless. We will extract your soul and refine your spirit, condemning you to eternal damnation!"
The other Alien Race Venerable Spirits also nodded one after another, their eyes filled with mockery and killing intent.
In their view, Ning Yuan was purely seeking his own death!
Even if his physical body was strong, he was merely an Earth Rank Transcendent.
Facing the peak Ninth-rank Flying Heaven Realm prodigies meticulously cultivated by each clan, what did he have to win with?
Moreover, it was a battle of attrition!
He would be worn to death!
"Bullshit!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Jianghe exploded on the spot!
"You shameless old bastards! Have you no face at all?"
"A battle of attrition? Why don't you just suggest a group beating outright?"
"My Grandson is only at the fifth rank! You're sending ninth-rankers to fight him? And taking turns one by one?!"
"Do you truly think our Human Race is easy to bully?!"
The bronze spear in his hand erupted with dazzling lightning once more, clearly ready to take action directly.
This was blatant bullying!
If they were truly allowed to proceed like this, even if Ning Yuan had three heads and six arms, he would be exhausted to death!
However.
At that moment, Ning Yuan reached out and stopped his grandfather, who was about to go berserk.
His face still wore that same calm and indifferent smile, as if he didn't take this seemingly certain-death wager seriously at all.
"Grandfather, it's fine."
"Let them come."
He turned his head to look at those high-and-mighty Alien Race Venerable Spirits, his tone calm as he said:
"I accept."
"However... I have a small request."
"You must give me a little bit of time to prepare slightly."
"After all, having to kill so many people at once, I also need to warm up a bit, don't I?"
"Hmph! Playing mysterious tricks!"
The Golden God Clan Patriarch snorted coldly, saying disdainfully:
"What if we give you time?"
"Could you possibly break through and become a Venerable Spirit in such a short moment?"
"Fine! We'll give you the time it takes for one incense stick to burn!"
"Once the incense burns out, the decisive battle begins!"
After speaking, he ignored Ning Yuan and began casting spells together with the other Venerable Spirits.
*Hum! Hum! Hum!*
One after another, teleportation arrays spanning the starry sky lit up above Sacred Martial Mountain!
Terrifying spatial fluctuations shook the heavens and the earth!
Soon.
One terrifying aura after another emerged from the teleportation arrays!
Each one was a peerless prodigy, extraordinary in appearance with blood and qi surging like a dragon!
There was a Golden God Clan ninth-rank powerhouse whose entire body blazed with golden divine fire!
There was a Sword Spirit Clan Sword Child, carrying twin swords with a sword intent soaring to the heavens!
There was a Magic Tiger Clan Young Master, three zhang tall with demonic energy overwhelming the sky!
...
A full dozen or more!
All uniformly at the ninth-rank Flying Heaven Realm!
Moreover, judging from the auras they emitted, each one was no weaker than the previous Jin Chi and Ye Xinghe!
A few even had deeper, more terrifying auras, clearly having already touched the threshold of the King Realm!
This lineup was simply luxurious to the extreme!
Forget Ning Yuan; even if a true Human Race Martial King came, facing such a formation, they would probably feel their scalp go numb!
"Hiss—!"
Below, Jiang Mingyue, Ling Wanhe, and the others couldn't help but suck in a sharp breath upon seeing this scene, their faces turning deathly pale.
"It's over..."
"This time, it's really over..."
"So many ninth-rank prodigies... even if Boss is a monster, it's impossible for him to win!"
Zhou Qi and Lu Sheng were even more anxious, pacing around like ants on a hot pan.
"Boss is playing with fire!"
"This isn't a duel! This is clearly suicide!"
Even Jiang Baihe, who had always been full of confidence in Ning Yuan, was now frowning tightly, his eyes filled with worry.
Wasn't this too overconfident?
However.
Ning Yuan, at the center of the storm, still wore a face of utter calm.
He paid no attention to the surrounding gazes of shock, worry, and ridicule.
Instead, he walked directly to the center of the arena and sat down cross-legged.
Then...
Under the puzzled stares of everyone.
He slowly closed his eyes and began circulating his cultivation technique!
*Boom!*
A vast, suffocating power of blood and qi erupted from within his body!
Immediately after!
That realm barrier within him, which had been suppressed all along, was instantly shattered as if made of paper!
*Rumble!*
The heavens and earth changed color!
Endless Yuan Qi frantically converged towards him, forming a gigantic Yuan Qi funnel!
His aura began to climb at an unbelievable, frenzied speed!
Earth Rank peak!
Heaven Rank initial stage!
Heaven Rank middle stage!
Heaven Rank peak!
...
In just a few breaths of time!
He broke through the limits of the Heaven Rank Transcendent as if splitting bamboo!
Stepping into the legendary — Meteor Rank Flying Heaven Realm!
Thanks to that flawless King-level Physical Body, he didn't encounter any bottlenecks or obstacles during his breakthrough!
Everything flowed naturally!
So... perfectly logical!
"He... he actually broke through at this moment?!"
"A breakthrough on the battlefield?!"
Everyone was utterly dumbfounded!
