With Countless Qualities Bestowed Upon Me, I Shall Ultimately Become Immortal Chapter 406 - 372: Journey to the Mountains and Seas, Northe
The mirage of mountains and waters slowly erged from beneath the surface.
Their blood indeed contained so kind of "guidance".
The distant, indistinct mountain seed quite similar to the holy mountain with palace towers depicted in the mural.
ng Chuan focused his mind on the scene, and monts later, it transford into a vast green rain, scattering into nothingness.
Having co this far, he hesitated no longer.
Besides, ng Chuan really wanted to know what exactly the Great Brahma Heaven was about.
The holy mountain, the palace, the Crocodile Demons, and the mysterious Great Brahma Heaven hinted at behind it all.
These matters have never been publicly ntioned by the upper echelons of Great Chu, nor are there any online records.
Not even any internal news from the United University.
ng Chuan speculated there must be so kind of "confidentiality regulations" restricting those in the know.
Whether it was due to insufficient martial prowess or the truth was too shocking...
These mysteries were ones he intended to unveil with his own hands.
As ng Chuan had always believed, martial arts is not just about relentless practice, but also an exploratory journey.
The mystery of this world equally captivated ng Chuan’s heart and soul.
The Great Brahma Heaven on the mural, the Crocodile Man’s bizarre ritual, the do hidden within the mirage...
The demonic qi intensity of [Yellow Sands 011] could not be wrong.
His martial arts were enough now to serve as the key to unlocking these mysteries.
"Since I’m here..."
...
Just as ng Chuan was "heading towards the mountain and sea".
He was unaware that the seven-day trial had already ended.
As the Defense Army began urging entry near the Demon Nest’s entrance, testers from the United University started walking out in batches.
Within the Northern United University camp.
Xu Qingfeng was examining a large bag of harvest, showing a satisfied expression.
After being stung by a sand scorpion, he adhered strictly to the rules of feel, observe, and then act in the Demon Nest.
Carefully cautious, never fighting an unprepared battle.
Though most items in the bag were lower-grade materials.
Counting the battle achievents, it would be sufficient for the martial arts family for so ti.
"The seven-day trial harvest can rival completing several school missions, this kind of opportunity, it seems like there will be another one next year..."
Just like this trial, with veteran Martial Artists from the previous intake participating.
Thinking of this, Xu Qingfeng couldn’t help but smile.
If it is held again next year, he would co out as a "Senior Xu".
Once his strength rises significantly, he would harvest substantially, targeting middle-rank ones!
Relatively safe, enjoyable hunting is also one of the benefits of the "academic faction".
Of course, the premise is that you need the ability to hunt the Celestial Demons, the pie doesn’t fall from the sky.
After packing everything, hearing urging from outside, Xu Qingfeng hastened to step out.
He casually glanced at the battle achievents leaderboard beside him.
Only to see that the battle achievents of the person at the top of the list had changed again...
[ng Chuan: 5668→5671 battle achievents, personal rank: 1]
"Is Wild ng still killing crazily, what an animal..."
In seven days, the combined gains of the Yong’an people were less than an eighth of ng Chuan’s battle achievents...
Xu Qingfeng shook his head helplessly, sotis truly curious whether the other party was human.
Recalling the scene where ng Chuan transford in form, standing over six ters tall...
"Clearly not human."
...
In the distance, Motohiko followed his ntor, preparing to withdraw from the Demon Nest.
Compared to resource gains in this trial, his greatest gain was in ntal growth.
Martial arts is about cultivating the mind, this insight is a hundred tis more precious than the battle achievents on the statistics board or the Celestial Demon materials in the storage bag.
Grandmaster Shang was equally gratified, seeing that Motohiko had progressed smoothly until eting ng Chuan.
After entering the martial arts family, dia reports stating [Another era of the United University being dominated by Tiger Form] even pushed Motohiko’s prestige to the peak.
Thereafter, during the direct confrontation between him and ng Chuan in their scramble for Martial Extre True Inheritance.
The opponent shattered all of the disciple’s pride...
Experiencing a devastating defeat in the midst of uproar, coupled with the disdain from the woman he fancied.
The kid didn’t choose to give in to despair, nor did he turn towards jealousy.
Instead, it made him see his own shortcomings, igniting a purer heart towards martial arts.
This tempered mindset will also beco a critical cornerstone for the disciple’s future breakthrough of the great limit.
Thinking of the five thousand academic credits wager he had paid on his behalf earlier.
Grandmaster Shang shook his head with a bitter smile:
"As long as he gained understanding, the money wasn’t spent in vain..."
He put his arm around Motohiko’s neck, smiling:
"Kid, after leaving, devote yourself to practicing the Dragon and Tiger Stance Skill, advance to the second limit soon.
If you can break through by June, Master will give you a long spear, third-grade."
"No need, Master, I’ll save money and buy it myself."
Motohiko didn’t want Grandmaster Shang to spend more on him.
"Martial arts inheritance is never a transaction, you receiving my Tiger Form today, shall soday develop it greatly. That’s the best reward for Master."
Hearing this, Motohiko nodded solemnly.
Having a good ntor is his blessing.
...
Once the large groups from the four schools were out of the Demon Nest, Grandmaster Shang looked at the already concluded statistics board.
Not far from the Demon Nest entrance, in the military camp, the overall battle achievents of the four schools were being tallied, but the rankings were not yet out.
Once the teachers and students from the four schools gradually withdrew from the Demon Nest.
Grandmaster Shang exited and entered the temporary military camp.
The quartermaster was still calculating. Although the final rankings had not been announced, a subtle air of competition was already pervasive.
As his gaze fell on the personal achievent panel, Shang Ruyi smiled.
There was no need to wait for the results; the conspicuous [5671] had already secured the first place for Northern United University in advance!
By nearly three thousand achievents, ng Chuan was ahead of the second place, Chen Xuan.
Though the personal third place in this trial was also a student from Eastern United University.
But the combined achievents of both of them couldn’t match those of ng Chuan alone...
The more Shang Ruyi looked, the more he thought this kid was a bit terrifying.
He smacked his lips and marveled: "What a little freak..."
He could counterattack an initially upper-rank Celestial Demon even when he was in the Martial Arts Family.
But every battle was a major fight, and after each, he needed a long ti to recover.
Unlike the other side, who seed tireless, like a bulldozer in the Demon Nest.
For instance, Chen Xuan, Shang Ruyi felt that with the blessing of a fourth-grade True Martial, his combat power was not much inferior to ng Chuan.
But the gap in their achievents clearly explained everything.
To have such a record as ng Chuan’s, having astonishing strength is just one aspect.
The key is endurance...
In the distance, the lead teacher of Eastern United University, [Ziyun Immortal·Lan Caixia], slowly walked over.
As a Martial Arts Grandmaster, although nearly sixty years old.
Her figure was still as graceful as erald bamboo, her skin tight and glowing, with an awe-inspiring yet not lacking femininity in her expression, exhibiting unparalleled charm in every gesture and smile.
The path of Martial Arts is long, and these female martial artists are like fine wines.
The longer the age, the more flavorful...
She was also looking at the achievent statistics panel, raising her graceful eyebrows, her gaze flickering with a trace of surprise.
In just a limited seven-day period, nearly six thousand achievents were gained.
Such accomplishnts, if not unprecedented, are at least unparalleled.
Lan Caixia gently opened her crimson lips with rather envious tone:
"Grandmaster Shang, having such a student at Northern United is indeed a great fortune.
Perhaps decades later, like Principal Sui, he will beco another invincible Celestial King, with even the Martial Arts Competition peak being very promising."
Shang Ruyi, on the side, laughed and said:
"ng Chuan is indeed impressive, but he’s still young, and it’s too early to say these things.
However, Principal Sui also highly regards this child; he was even the promoter of the Grandmaster Class exemption test.
It was precisely Principal Sui’s farsightedness that determined the decision despite opposition."
Upon hearing this, Lan Caixia couldn’t help but exclaim:
"Principal Sui is indeed the foremost Celestial King, just for this insight alone is unmatched."
"Your school’s Chen Xuan isn’t bad either, but he lost in terms of stamina and endurance."
Lan Caixia recalled ng Chuan’s exaggerated physique and involuntarily nodded.
"What is that kid’s attribute? His physical quality is extraordinarily strong, indeed having an advantage."
"I don’t know, but Northern United has given him a na, called Horizontal Training Holy Body.
Principal Sui believes that ng Chuan’s trait, with the augntation of [Energy], is not weaker than the Buddhist Sect’s [Leakless ditation] blessing to [Spirit].
It should be one of the top traits never awakened by predecessors, not only helpful in horizontal training but also greatly enhances comprehension, with hard skills and fist skills blooming simultaneously, making training twice as effective with half the effort."
Shang Ruyi confird the "unprecedented" aspect of this.
If soone had possessed the sa trait before, such freakish abilities couldn’t have failed to rise.
Of course, ng Chuan’s personal efforts shouldn’t be ignored; he had also heard rumors of the 4 AM, twelve-year National Righteous Fist...
After waiting for a while, all faculty and students inside the Demon Nest, except for ng Chuan and Chen Xuan, withdrew.
At this ti, the final rankings of the four schools had co out.
Northern United University, without suspense, took first place with a total achievent of [11008].
ng Chuan alone scored more than half, which could only be described as terrifyingly so...
While waiting for the others to co out, Shang Ruyi inford Principal Sui of the good news imdiately.
[Please have Secretary Li pass on to Principal Sui that Northern United University took first place in this four-school trial.]
From the other end of the phone ca a burst of static noises.
A man’s coughing voice was heard; it was Sui Chunqiu himself taking the call:
[No need, Xiao Shang, I’m not practicing right now, what did you just say?]
Shang Ruyi repeated it once more.
On the other end, Sui Chunqiu said:
[Very good, are the students all safe?]
Shang Ruyi smiled and said:
[Everyone is out safely; only one was seriously injured due to recklessness, three were lightly injured, but now out of danger, no major issues.]
After a pause, he continued:
[It’s just that ng Chuan is still inside the Demon Nest. Huangsha 011 is too large, and the Defense Army hasn’t found where this kid ran off to yet.
We won the championship from Eastern United this ti, with ng Chuan alone contributing more than half the rit, he...]
Upon hearing this, Sui Chunqiu simply answered "Hmm," as if everything was expected.
[Western United’s Principal Zhao ntioned to earlier that there is a god temple deep inside Huangsha 011, the kid might have gone in, you guys return first, don’t worry about him.]
Shang Ruyi hesitated and replied:
[Should I go in and look for him, just in case...]
Sui Chunqiu’s voice ca through, as reassuring as a tranquilizer.
[There won’t be any problems, I’ve left a fallback on ng Chuan.]
[Understood.]
After hanging up the phone, Shang Ruyi led everyone to leave first as instructed by Principal Sui.
Martial Arts races against ti, it should not be delayed because of ng Chuan alone.
Besides, Eastern United University was still waiting for Chen Xuan to co out, because when the Defense Army went into the Demon Nest to clean up the battlefield, Commander Yang Zhuo had already found Chen Xuan and was returning him.
Now only ng Chuan remained unaccounted for in the Demon Nest.
Lan Caixia silently thought:
"It seems this child has found the [god temple], I wonder what kind of opportunity he will have..."
Opportunities often co with risks, hoping the child can return safely and have so gain...
