Chapter 627: The Wager with the Immortal Race’s Prince Tianjun
TL: Etude
This time, the Human Race sent a Heavenly Venerable to the Spirit Race, but they did not dispatch a Supreme.
After all, this opportunity in the Lingyun Heavenly Realm was not of great importance to the entire Human Race; it was only significant to the six Great Gods heading to the Lingyun Heavenly Realm.
If it weren’t for protecting these six Great Gods, the Human Race wouldn’t even have sent a Heavenly Venerable.
However, these six Great Gods were very important Children of the Universe for the Human Race, with deep backgrounds. None of them could afford to go unprotected.
Therefore, they had to dispatch a Heavenly Venerable to the Lingyun Heavenly Realm, demonstrating the Human Race’s commitment.
On the Human Race’s spaceship.
Ye Tian met with the other five Great Gods and chatted briefly.
These five Great Gods were not princes from the Supreme Hall of Humanity but were inheritors from the nine Supreme-level forces.
After all, the Great God princes of the Supreme Hall of Humanity did not have deep backgrounds, making it difficult to obtain a spot in the Lingyun Heavenly Realm.
Therefore, the other five Great Gods coming this time might not have been very powerful, but their backgrounds were absolutely profound.
Ye Tian gradually learned from these five Great Gods that they were all offspring of Supremes. freēnovelkiss.com
In terms of background, Ye Tian indeed did not compare to these five Great Gods. However, in terms of strength and importance, Ye Tian surpassed them by far.
Because of this, these five Great Gods did not dare to offend Ye Tian in the slightest and spoke very politely.
A few days later.
The Human Race’s spaceship entered the Spirit Race’s territory and, under the Spirit Race’s hospitality, temporarily resided on Yungu Star.
Yungu Star was a star close to the Lingyun Heavenly Realm, where most of the alien races wanting to enter the Lingyun Heavenly Realm would be arranged to stay.
With several days left before the Lingyun Heavenly Realm opened, Ye Tian strolled around Yungu Star, and the only place worth visiting on Yungu Star was Yungu Tree City.
Yungu Tree City was built atop a massive spirit tree, whose scale rivaled that of a mature World Tree, though it was not a World Tree but a common spirit tree called a Giant Tree.
The characteristic of this tree was its immense size and its ability to gather yuan qi. Aside from this, it had no special qualities.
Because of its size and ability to gather yuan qi, the Spirit Race used it as the foundation for their city.
“Yungu Tree City is quite nice. If a God-level being with a wood attribute talent cultivated here, their cultivation speed would be far beyond that of the outside world,” Ye Tian thought.
In Yungu Tree City, Ye Tian and the other five Great Gods from the Human Race explored various places and purchased some local specialties of the Spirit Race.
Suddenly, Ye Tian noticed a group of Immortal Race members, about ten in number.
“Prince of Ten Thousand Laws, those are Great Gods from the Immortal Race. We should avoid them!” suggested Disciple Eagle Battle (disciple = a main/primary inheritor disciple), one of the five Great Gods from the Human Race, in a low voice.
“No need!” Ye Tian waved his hand dismissively.
He knew what Disciple Eagle Battle was worried about. Their strength was far from that of these Great Gods, and since the Human Race was currently no match for the Immortal Race, it would be unwise to provoke them. However, Ye Tian had no fear! In terms of strength, he was not afraid of these Great Gods. Moreover, these Immortal Race Great Gods did not represent the entire Immortal Race, and a conflict with a few Great Gods wouldn’t start a war between the clans.
Besides, the Immortal Race and the Human Race were separated by many other large clans of the universe. If the Immortal Race truly wanted to attack the Human Race, the consequences would be unbearable for them.
“It seems we have some friends from the Human Race!” The ten or so Great Gods from the Immortal Race walked towards Ye Tian.
Suddenly, the leading Great God stared at Ye Tian and said, “You must be the Prince of Ten Thousand Laws from the Human Race.”
“That’s right. And who might you be?” Ye Tian responded coolly.
“How disrespectful! You don’t even recognize our Immortal Race’s Prince Tianjun,” someone from the Immortal Race retorted.
Another Great God from the Immortal Race shouted, “You don’t recognize Prince Tianjun!”
Ye Tian sneered, “I don’t recognize Prince Tianjun.”
Prince Tianjun laughed heartily, “The Prince of Ten Thousand Laws is reputed to be the universe’s greatest genius. It’s normal not to recognize me. However, Prince of Ten Thousand Laws, you were only dominant during the Emperor level period. It seems you haven’t had any significant battle achievements since then. How about we compete in the Lingyun Heavenly Realm this time? As for the stakes, let’s wager ten Origin Artifacts!”
“Prince of Ten Thousand Laws, you mustn’t bet with him,” Disciple Eagle Battle hurriedly communicated via voice transmission. “Prince Tianjun of the Immortal Race is a Great God who has cultivated for three hundred thousand years and is the descendant of one of their Supremes, with very high talent. Although his talent isn’t as high as the up-and-coming talent of the Immortal Race, Prince Tianxuan, Prince Tianxuan hasn’t truly risen yet, whereas Prince Tianjun has fully matured. It’s rumored that Prince Tianjun has already ascended to a Supreme Great God and will inevitably become a Supreme in the future. Right now, he is in the process of compressing his divine power. Once he compresses it to the limit, he will advance to the Planetary System level. While your talent surpasses that of the Immortal Race’s Prince Tianjun, there’s no need to contend with him now!”
“Supreme Prince, huh!” Ye Tian chuckled inwardly. He wouldn’t take a Supreme Prince seriously. As a Child of the Era, even the top Supreme Princes were like ants to him, let alone an ordinary Supreme Prince like Prince Tianjun.
“Thank you for the warning, Disciple Eagle Battle, but a mere Prince Tianjun is not worth my concern,” Ye Tian transmitted back.
Disciple Eagle Battle was stunned, looking at Ye Tian in shock.
At this moment, Ye Tian said to Prince Tianjun, “I can bet with you, but how should we wager? We can’t just duel on the Spirit Race’s territory, can we?”
“No need for a duel!” Prince Tianjun replied. “Let’s see who can venture deeper into the Lingyun Heavenly Realm. The Lingyun Heavenly Realm is very unique, capable of compressing divine power. The deeper one goes, the more terrifying the suppression becomes. It’s said that even the Spirit Race hasn’t entered the true center of the Lingyun Heavenly Realm; the pressure there is unbearable for Great Gods. We’ll compete to see who can go further. The one who goes deeper wins. How about that?”
“Agreed!” Ye Tian nodded in agreement.
In truth, this wager didn’t mean much to him, but if he could suppress the Immortal Race’s Prince Tianjun, it would boost the Human Race’s reputation. In small matters, any chance to crush the Immortal Race or other major clans of the universe was welcomed by the Human Race’s upper echelon, as long as it wasn’t excessive.
“Hmph, Prince of Ten Thousand Laws, don’t renege when you lose. Let’s go!” Prince Tianjun waved his hand and left with the other Great Gods of the Immortal Race.
After Prince Tianjun left, Disciple Eagle Battle said, “Prince of Ten Thousand Laws, Prince Tianjun is not to be underestimated. His divine power has been compressed to an extremely high degree, while you have only recently begun compressing your divine power. This wager puts you at a disadvantage!”
“You’ll see in a few days,” Ye Tian replied calmly, offering no further explanation.
Perhaps his celestial power compression was not as advanced as Prince Tianjun’s, but Ye Tian’s total celestial power was far superior. His physical limits, bolstered by the Eighteen Golden Bodies Technique and the Chaos Golden Desolation Technique, had reached an unimaginable level. Therefore, this wager was less a competition and more Prince Tianjun gifting him ten Origin Artifacts.
