Chapter 59 Heaven Witnesses the Bet
At this moment, Dongwanggong was full of confidence, having been appointed as the head of the male immortals by Hongjun.
Afterwards, Heavenly merit descended, helping him to sever one of his corpses.
From then on, he became one of the first cultivators to be promoted to Quasi-Saint.
In Dongwanggong's view, Lingxiao's cultivation fluctuations were the same as those of a Quasi-Saint in the early stage.
One-on-one?
He's sure he can beat the other guy to death!
Why?
The ruler of the Celestial Court is imbued with the primordial fortune.
Moreover, there is a dragon-headed walking stick personally bestowed by the Taoist patriarch.
He himself is the embodiment of the ultimate Yang source, and his supernatural powers and spells are also incredibly fierce.
There's absolutely no reason to lose!!
At this moment, everyone present looked at Dong Wanggong with surprise when they heard him say such things.
crazy?
Ling Xiao is able to gather so many people to follow him; could they possibly be just ordinary early-stage Quasi-Saints...?
If you fight him, you'll definitely lose!
Who gave this Eastern King Duke his confidence?
Last time, you were someone's mountain guardian, and you even had a flying mount...
forgetful?
Is it...
Does the Eastern King Duke really have some hidden trump cards?
In an instant, the anticipation in everyone's eyes intensified.
Especially the Three Pure Ones, Fuxi and Nuwa, Kunpeng and the Styx...
They don't want to leave so soon; they want to see if the Eastern King can defeat Lingxiao.
At this moment, Ling Xiao, who had been standing in front of the crowd, calmly said, "A one-on-one duel, is that it? Fine, I agree."
The Eastern King laughed and said, "Then let's first decide on the punishment for winning and losing."
"If you lose, hand over Penglai, Yingzhou, and Fangzhang to me."
"Then, take Jieyin and Zhunti back to the West and swear that you will never set foot in the East again."
The voice of the Eastern King was so loud that everyone present could hear it clearly.
The Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Kunpeng, the Styx River, and many other powerful beings from the Celestial Court were all beaming with joy.
If the Eastern King Duke can really defeat Lingxiao!
From then on, the land of the East was spared three scourges!
The anticipation in their eyes grew even stronger.
Zhunti sneered and asked, "So, what if you lose?"
In the void, the Eastern King Duke paused, then said disdainfully, "In a one-on-one fight, I am invincible against a mid-stage Quasi-Saint, and I can trade one for one with a peak Quasi-Saint! I'm not targeting anyone here, but apart from the twelve Quasi-Saints of the Dragon Clan, every single one of you here is trash!"
It must be said that although Dong Wanggong's words were arrogant, he did have the right to be so.
Last time, he was beaten so badly that he was forced to become a servant and a mount, but he encountered Ling Xiao instead...
However, if he were to encounter figures like the Styx Kunpeng and Randeng, he would still be a powerful being who looked down upon the entire world.
But today, when he faced Ling Xiao again, the sky cleared and the rain stopped, and he felt that he was capable again!
As the Eastern King Duke finished speaking, everyone present except Ling Xiao and the twelve Quasi-Saints of the Dragon Clan was furious!
However, before the crowd could mock Dong Wanggong, Lingxiao slowly stepped out of the crowd and said lazily, "Alright, if you lose, you must become my mount again. It won't be long, just before the next sermon."
Upon hearing this, Dong Wanggong recalled how he had transformed into a tortoise and carried the three Lingxiao brothers into the chaos. In an instant, a crimson color surged across his face.
He clenched his fists, shouted, and said, "Fine! I agree! I'd like to see how you defeat me!"
The moment he finished speaking, a brilliant light suddenly illuminated the clouds in the sky.
In an instant, a solemn, majestic, and vast aura enveloped the endless primordial land.
Dark clouds rolled across the sky, and a golden, vertical eye emerged from the clouds, radiating boundless light.
"It is the Heavenly Eye, a manifestation of the will of Heaven! Heaven itself has witnessed this contest!"
All the innate deities looked up, and their bodies began to tremble.
If anyone breaks their oath, as witnessed by Heaven, they will surely suffer divine retribution.
At best, it will cause the soul to be scattered; at worst, it will cause the true spirit to be annihilated.
The Eastern King was overjoyed.
If he wins, how could Ling Xiao dare to break his oath?
"Come, Lingxiao, fight me!"
A flash of divine light appeared in the hand of the Eastern King Duke, and he took up the dragon-headed crutch. He stood in mid-air, his eyes brimming with fighting spirit.
Ling Xiao nodded, looked at Jieyin and Zhunti, and said, "The Eastern King Duke wants to challenge us one-on-one. Why are you two brothers standing by and doing nothing?"
Both Jieyin and Zhunti were taken aback, but then their faces were filled with joy.
"Big brother, we're waiting for your orders!"
"Just say the word, say you'll break one of his arms, and I promise I won't chop off his head."
Zhunti held the Seven Treasures Tree in his left hand and a knife on his shoulder in his right. He bit his lower lip, his eyes filled with cold killing intent.
With a compassionate expression on his face, Jieyin clasped his hands together, surrounded by countless innate spiritual treasures floating in all directions, their endless light dazzling and their power extremely intimidating.
The Eastern King was already stunned, and then he was so shocked that he couldn't speak. Only then did he slowly come to his senses, his eyes showing hostility as he stared at the three Ling brothers.
"Ling Xiao, you call this a one-on-one fight?"
"You lack martial virtue! You will surely suffer divine retribution and die a horrible death!!"
The Eastern King was furious and angrily accused Ling Xiao of breaking his oath.
The powerful beings of the primordial world were stunned!
Ling Xiao actually disregarded his oath to Heaven, agreeing to a one-on-one duel, but now he wants a three-on-one fight?
That's not right!
If he didn't have the power, it would have been impossible for Jieyin and Zhunti to follow him.
It's even more impossible that he would get powerful figures like Di Jun, Tai Yi, and the Twelve Ancestral Witches to befriend him.
He will definitely be able to defeat the Eastern King!
However, no one could understand why Ling Xiao would so brazenly break his oath.
At this moment, Ling Xiao looked at Dong Wanggong with surprise, then pointed to the vertical eye in the sky and said, "Since Heaven has not sent down any lightning punishment, it means that I have not broken my oath."
His origin is the Thirty-Sixth Grade Heaven-Deceiving Demon Lotus, which inherently possesses the innate attribute of deceiving heaven, earth, and all living beings. The so-called will of heaven cannot lock onto his aura at all.
Therefore, this is why Ling Xiao dares to act this way.
As for why he insisted on teasing Dong Wanggong instead of defeating him openly and legitimately.
The reason is that deception and trickery are two major paths, and one needs to accelerate their progress in order to increase one's cultivation level.
Deceiving the Eastern King Duke was for his own benefit.
Ling Xiao walked towards Dong Wanggong through the air, a sly smile on his face, and said, "You said it yourself: you're invincible in the mid-stage of Quasi-Saint, and you can trade one for one with the peak of Quasi-Saint. In other words, you're invincible below the Saint level. You definitely wanted to take on the three of us brothers one-on-one, so I granted your request. But now you want to go back on your word?"
"Dong Wang Gong, in front of so many powerful beings, don't make me look down on you."
Dongwanggong: "..."
At this moment, many powerful beings looked at Dongwanggong with great sympathy, for Jieyin and Zhunti had already entered the early stage of Quasi-Saint.
Even if the Eastern King Duke is strong, can he really take on three opponents at once?
"My two brothers, strike his back and tear his mouth apart."
In the void, Ling Xiao stood tall, his narrow eyes revealing a profound meaning, and said, "Such arrogance, as if I don't exist?"
In the next instant, Jieyin and Zhunti, their bodies radiating a vast, boundless light, swooped down from the sky.
"Brother, just watch, I'll beat him into a pig's head!"
"Hehe, Dongwanggong, enjoy the pleasure of being ravaged!"
