"This person is very strong!"
Lin Bai, gripping the provocation letter, said with a gloomy face.
From the handwriting on the letter left by Fang Ji, Lin Bai could feel Fang Ji’s formidable power.
Qi Yao said, "Even you said he’s strong, so it seems Fang Ji must be the top master in Tianding City now. Can it be that in this vast Tianding City, there is nobody who can beat him?"
Lin Bai lightly smiled, "I only said he’s strong, never mentioned that I can’t beat him."
Qi Yao exclaimed in surprise, "So you’re considering taking a shot? Great, whenever you decide to fight with Fang Ji, I will definitely be there cheering for you, Fang Ji was too arrogant."
Lin Bai shook his head, "I won’t fight him. Now, I need to adjust my state to face even stronger enemies."
Bai Xiaoxiao looked at Lin Bai worries filling her beautiful eyes upon hearing his words.
Bai Xiaoxiao knew, the day of the Giant God Clan’s descent was getting closer, and she could also feel the sharpness in Lin Bai becoming increasingly intense.
Qi Yao, hearing this, was somewhat disappointed.
Qi Yao really wanted to see Lin Bai and Fang Ji in a battle, but unfortunately, Lin Bai has already directly stated he won’t accept Fang Ji’s challenge, instead, he was to face a stronger opponent.
Qi Yao said, "Master Lin, even if you don’t accept Fang Ji’s challenge, he will still come to you during ’Three Stages and Five Obstacles’."
Lin Bai shook his head and said, "If he comes looking for me, I will make sure he loses miserably."
"I hope he doesn’t distract me,"
Lin Bai shook his head and said.
Qi Yao said, "Well then, it still leaves us five days until the Assessment Day of the Miracle Ridge, by then, all the warriors involved will have a battle in the Lingfan Mountain Range, and we’ll see who is the strongest."
"Master Lin, I will take my leave now. See you in five days."
Lin Bai nodded, seeing off Qi Yao from the Lin Mansion.
Bai Xiaoxiao looked at Lin Bai with a serious face, worriedly asking, "The Miracle Ridge assessment is just five days away, are you confident you can withstand the Giant God’s Intent in Lingfan Mountain Range?"
Lingfan Mountain, is the final stage of ’Three Stages and Five Obstacles’, all the warriors who have passed the previous seven stages will be sent into the Lingfan Mountain Range for a mutual contest, where they aim to earn Points Tokens.
To determine the first place.
Lingfan Mountain was where the Array Dao Temple of Miracle Ridge had set up a circle known as "Yu Tian Shen Formation."
The formidable aspect of the Yu Tian Shen Formation was that once it was set up, it could separate heaven and earth.
If the magic circle wasn’t activated, no matter what method or how strong the attack from the outside was, they couldn’t get in; and the people inside, couldn’t leave.
The Yu Tian Shen Formation had an extremely strong defense, almost able to withstand a joint attack from over a hundred warriors at the Great Perfection of the Human Elixir Realm.
Bai Xiaoxiao looked anxiously at Lin Bai.
Lin Bai gently laughed, "Rest assured, if everything goes as planned, there shouldn’t be any problem."
"The Heavenly Protecting Stone Realm, resist three attacks."
"My cultivation strength, resist once."
"My divine power, resist once."
"The Golden Flower from that old lady can help me resist once or twice."
"The Thousand Star Bead, resist once."
"The divine light left by my master, resist once."
"The Yu Tian Shen Formation of Lingfan Mountain, resist once."
"A total of nine times."
Lin Bai took a deep breath, a bitter smile appeared on his solemn face.
"I should have an 80% chance to withstand the Giant God’s Intent," Lin Bai laughed.
Bai Xiaoxiao expressed her worries, "What if the power of the Giant God’s Intent surpasses your resistance?"
Lin Bai laughed, "Then we leave it to fate."
"Is it up to fate?" Bai Xiaoxiao stated a little disappointedly.
Whenever someone uttered the phrase "up to fate," it meant that the individual had lost control of the situation at hand and could only let destiny take its course.
All of a sudden, a flurry of shadows flickered within the Lin residence.
Bai Xiaoxiao harshly rebuked, "Who’s there?"
Lin Bai sensed the aura of the shadowed figure and immediately laughed, "Xiaoxiao, don’t worry. It’s an old acquaintance."
"Senior Brother Ji Xiang, it’s been a while"
Laughing, Lin Bai walked out of the reception hall to see a disheveled Sword Cultivator standing in the courtyard.
Under his messy hair, a pair of blood-red eyes stared at Lin Bai.
Bai Xiaoxiao came out and was immediately frightened by the terrifying aura emitted from Ji Xiang, especially when Bai Xiaoxiao saw the Demon Sword in Ji Xiang’s hand, her face turned deathly pale.
Bai Xiaoxiao felt an exceedingly powerful force emanating from Ji Xiang’s Sword, as if it could suppress the Demon Gods of Hell.
Ji Xiang spoke, "Lin Bai, long time no see. Last time after master’s guidance, I left without saying goodbye, and didn’t apologize to you. That day, at the cliff edge, I shouldn’t have attacked you."
Lin Bai laughed it off lightly, "No matter, that was just a test set up by the master. Come, Senior Brother Ji Xiang, have a seat inside."
Ji Xiang walked in, asking, "Lin Bai, are you going to the Miracle Ridge assessment?"
Lin Bai nodded, "Yeah, why? Do you also want to go to the Miracle Ridge, Brother Ji Xiang?"
Ji Xiang laughed, "Looks like we will meet again on the Miracle Ridge."
"If Senior Brother Ji Xiang will be on the Miracle Ridge, I’m confident it will be even more exciting," Lin Bai’s eyes flickered, he had no doubt in Ji Xiang’s capabilities.
Never mind Ji Xiang’s personal strength, just the Demon Sword in his hand alone was more than enough to sweep all the other top nine people in the Potential List.
While Lin Bai and Ji Xiang were meeting at Lin’s house.
In front of a wine-building, a man dressed in gray easily defeated his opponent with a flick of his blade.
On the second floor of the wine building, a man with a haughty expression gave a cold smile, glancing scornfully at the grey-robed sword cultivator below.
"I didn’t expect to see the genius disciple of the Saint Seal Sect even here in Tianding City. Qin Beiao, it’s been a while."
At that moment, a frivolous laughter came from behind the haughty man.
Qin Beiao turned around, his arrogant face showed a hint of surprise when he saw the man behind him, "I didn’t expect it to be Crown Prince Longqing Feng of the Azure Dragon Empire."
"This Miracle Ridge is a pitiful hellhole, why did Your Highness bother coming?" he asked solemnly.
Longqing Feng walked up to Qin Beiao, looking at the grey-clad sword cultivator below and chuckled, "Ah, I’ve been unable to find any worthy opponents in the imperial city of the Azure Dragon Empire. And I’ve heard that the most talented disciples of most dynasties and sects in Lingnan are here in Miracle Ridge."
"So, I just came to join in the fun."
Qin Beiao smiled slightly, "Really?"
Longqing Feng chuckled again, neither confirming nor denying the claim.
Both of these men hailed from Lingnan.
One was the Crown Prince of Lingnan’s foremost dynasty, the Azure Dragon Empire!
The other was the absolute prodigy of Lingnan’s top sect, the Saint Seal Sect!
If their identities were ever revealed, they would most likely send shockwaves throughout Miracle
