Chapter 153: Top of the Earth Ranking
But perhaps the most important thing is that I had some experience in my previous world. They are all names that represent the unity of man and nature. I didn’t expect that there are really some similarities.
This is what allowed me to successfully comprehend this realm. Even the low-level martial arts world has its merits. Otherwise, how could the pinnacle of this world also have traces of the previous world?
My spirit is extremely strong, and the essence of my soul is that of a ghost fairy. Although I don’t know what level a ghost fairy is yet, judging by some realms and experiences in the previous world, I am at least several times stronger than that useless guy, the Gu God.
As for meeting the emperor, it is a difficult question to know who to pray to.
My master's method of alienation is the Fungus and Poison Hand, which is essentially a poison in this world. Do I still need to pray to the God of Poison? Isn't that just seeking death?
Since the path to becoming the Gu God is blocked, what else can we do?
Suddenly, Wang Yao saw the four big words "Ghost Immortal Status" on the system panel. They were very eye-catching, and inspiration suddenly came to him.
Do I just need to pray to my own ghost immortal status? I am a ghost immortal status, and my essence is extremely high. Can't I respond to myself?
The more Wang Yao thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed. How could a Ghost Immortal not be at the "Sage" level? Ordinary "Sages" couldn't even catch up to a Ghost Immortal. So, could I, without any danger, face a Sage and achieve a Grandmaster breakthrough?
The next step is to follow the procedures, make steady progress, and move towards becoming a grandmaster.
The above were all the thoughts in Wang Yao’s mind. The speed of time flowing outside was naturally not like this. Only a moment had passed outside. When Wang Yao looked up, he saw Gou Ju rising into the air and slashing at him with a knife.
Before, Gou Ju's sword was still very threatening and impossible to dodge.
But this is obviously not the case now. Wang Yao is in harmony with nature and will not be locked by Gou Ju's aura at all. Naturally, he will not be able to withstand the huge pressure of this knife.
He lightly dodged to the side, moving left and right, and avoided the incoming knife, making it ineffective.
Seeing Wang Yao dodge the sword so easily, Gou Ju was slightly stunned. He didn't know what happened. How could he dodge it so easily?
At the same time, his knife became slower and slower, as if it was chopping left and right in the mud.
Naturally, Wang Yao used the power of the five elements to delay and stop Gou Ju's movements. Now the effect is so obvious, it is natural that Wang Yao communicated with a trace of the power of heaven and earth, and with the help of the state of unity between man and nature, he was naturally relaxed and at ease.
"Crazy Wave Fist! Heaven and earth lend me a hand!" Wang Yao hadn't known when he hadn't used the Crazy Wave Fist. It was either the evolved version or the most original Crazy Wave Fist of the Crazy Wave Gang.
Wang Yao's punch was like a violent storm, with waves of ups and downs, hitting Gou Ju who was about to swing the knife for the second time.
"Boom!" This was the wave between heaven and earth. A trace of spiritual power from heaven and earth poured into Wang Yao's fist, creating an even bigger wave.
Under Wang Yao's communication of the unity of man and nature, the five elements of earth also continuously flowed out from under Wang Yao's feet, which was a two-way attack from the air and land.
"Crack." The place where Gou Ju stood on his feet began to shake, and cracks appeared, distracting his attention and forcing him to devote more strength to stabilize his body.
It was as if something had blinded his eyes, making him ignore Wang Yao's overwhelming punch, as if he didn't see it.
This is the power of Wang Yao's unity between man and nature. Even if such a wave is set off, the enemy still feels no threat and thinks it is just a soft punch.
What is there to be afraid of since he has the Iron Shirt that he has mastered? Even he himself has to break through the defense of the Iron Shirt from the inside, so it will be even more difficult for others.
What he didn't notice was that a very weak inspiration that warned of danger was ignored by the distracted Gou Ju. In fact, his inspiration was already very strong, and he could give timely hints when facing Wang Yao's unity of man and nature.
The opportunity to defend was fleeting, and Wang Yao's wild punch hit Gou Ju's chest. First, the protective air shield came into play, followed by Dacheng's iron shirt, which was recognized as the best hard skill in the martial arts world, but it could not stop Wang Yao's punch.
"Bang!" The sound of fist bones colliding was so miserable and yet so pleasant.
Gou Ju's chest caved in directly, and a bloody fist hole appeared on his chest. What was the use of the iron shirt, and what was the use of the rubbish boxing skills in the internal energy realm? With the blessing of the unity of man and nature that only the grandmaster can possess, the power was so swift and huge.
It was just a very ordinary wild wave punch. Wang Yao didn't even use the overlapping wave technique, but this move seriously injured Gou Ju.
At this moment, Wang Yao and Gou Jucai deeply realized that the reason why a grandmaster is a grandmaster is that the difference between the Heaven List and the Earth List is as great as that between heaven and earth.
Even if Wang Yao had just taken a small step, no Earth List Grandmaster could withstand his punch, but Gou Ju was unwilling to give up!
With Gou Ju's internal energy regulation and the blessing of powerful qi and blood, the big hole that had just been blasted by Wang Yao was now being repaired.
In just a blink of an eye, the bleeding stopped, as if it was about to heal, and Wang Yao remained calm, allowing Gou Ju to struggle there.
You know, in the previous battle, his gloves were taken off, and his chest was broken by his fungus-infected hands. You can imagine what the consequences would be.
Sure enough, from the wound that was just about to heal, streams of black blood began to flow out, emitting a very foul smell.
Red pustules and chickenpox blisters appeared one after another, as if they were about to occupy Gou Ju's entire body.
No matter how the Holy Son of the Demon Sect struggled, no matter how he summoned his blood and life force to suppress his injuries, it was of no avail.
All his struggles now were in vain, because Wang Yao's hateful bacteria and virus had taken deep root in Gou Ju's body, and now it was bursting out all at once, so it would be strange if it could be suppressed.
Not long after, Gou Ju stopped struggling, and his twisting body became quiet, with only his nostrils still breathing.
Tears of blood flowed from his eyes. This was his last bit of vitality, and it could only leak out now.
He did not look at Wang Yao with malice or resentment, but was just regretting himself and regretting why he was so arrogant.
If he had been able to proceed step by step, secretly control a few more masters, increase his own strength, and be more careful when facing Wang Yao, would this be the outcome?
Father, I have disappointed you, Demon Sect...
Wang Yao didn't care what Gou Ju was thinking in the last moments of his life. He just stepped forward, pointed a finger at his forehead, and sent him on his way. He didn't want to torture him any more. It was meaningless. After all, he was the first person who forced him into a life-and-death crisis and made him want to return.
With Gou Ju's death, the battlefields within a few miles around also came to a halt, and the eight master puppets fell down one after another as if they had lost their support.
Some people didn't dare to believe it, thinking it was a trick, and didn't dare to step forward easily, but there were still masters who united together.
I went forward and tested the fallen puppet, and found that it had indeed stopped breathing and had no signs of life.
That's right, the puppets that Gou Ju controls using the Huasheng Mihun Dafa are all alive, otherwise they cannot fight independently. Even if their intelligence is very low, they can still defend themselves.
"What happened? What happened? Did we win out of nowhere?" someone asked in disbelief. The battle lasted for a day and a night, and it ended just like that.
"Could it be?"
“It should be!”
Someone thought of the answer. After all, there was also the unconventional art of puppetry in the martial arts world, and it was also heard that if a puppet lost the control of its master or the master died, it would naturally become a piece of wood and would be of no use at all.
At this time, several smart masters guessed the answer. Sure enough, a man with his clothes tidied and the battlefield cleaned up walked out of the bamboo forest in the distance.
In a battle between masters, it is difficult to determine the winner unless the gap between the two sides is too huge. Now, five hours have passed since Bai Tian Wang Yao joined the battle.
A bright moon hung on the top of the mountain, and the bright moonlight illuminated Wang Yao's figure. With the master's eyesight, it was no mistake that this was Bian Jiu. It was their victory!
Moonlight is the radiance of the silver world and the purest pigment in the world. Its faint radiance falls on every corner, staining any black spots of graffiti with faint optical fibers, like a seamless wedding dress of a bride, flashing a gentle light, not as dazzling as the sun, but so soft, giving people a feeling of quiet and tranquility.
At this time, Wang Yao gave the masters a feeling of peace and tranquility. Although he was fighting all the time, he always had a heavy stone hanging in his heart. What if Bian Jiu lost?
Should they continue to unite and resist, or should they flee on their own when disaster strikes, each returning home to their own mothers and allowing Gou Ju to continue wreaking havoc.
Now that the answer is out, they don't have to worry anymore, because the final winner is the genius Bian Jiu, whom they have always been paying attention to and who is destined to bring about a revolution in martial arts.
Wang Yao had more important things to do, so he didn't stay for too long. Instead, he simply said hello and ran away, leaving behind only pairs of admiring eyes.
"He truly possesses the talent of a Martial Ancestor, incomparable. Even the Holy Son of the Demon Sect would suffer the same fate."
"Let's clean up the battlefield quickly and make this news public so that everyone can cheer up. After all, they've been so nervous lately, especially those old guys."
"Hahahaha, you're right. Those old guys don't have much fighting power left, but they still insisted on taking up places on the Earth Ranking. Now they're regretting it."
"What do you think? Will the head of the Wucha Division give up the number one spot on the Earth Ranking? This is the number one spot on the Earth Ranking, which can greatly increase the probability of breaking through to the Grandmaster level. That's a lot of martial luck!"
"Hmph, even if he doesn't want to give in, he has to. I've witnessed this before. Unless both the imperial court and Bai Xiaosheng have lost all their shame."
“Without Grandmaster Bian Jiu, this situation might have spread to the Central Plains Prefecture, and the imperial court would have lost its last bit of face. This first place must be given up no matter what. Grandmaster Bian deserves it in terms of reputation and strength!” An old senior who ranked third on the Earth List made the final conclusion. He believed that if the imperial court did not give him the first place, he would not give up. In a sense, didn’t Bian Jiu save his life?
So why was Wang Yao in such a hurry to go? Of course, he was rushing to the Western Desert, which was the most lively place.
Most of the power of the righteous martial arts world is gone, and Yan Wu and the others are also there. The most important thing is that there will be a grandmaster-level fight, and Wang Yao cannot miss it.
I still remember that when Yan Wu separated from him, she specifically told him that if he could arrive at the battlefield in time to support him, she would not worry at all whether Wang Yao could defeat the Holy Son of the Demon Sect.
In fact, this question is easy to answer, because as long as Wang Yao can defeat and kill the Holy Son of the Demon Sect, Gou Ju, it means that his strength has reached a peak, and any hidden strength will be revealed. Even in the Western Desert battlefield where masters gather, he is an invaluable force.
Because of the unity of man and nature, Wang Yao did not need to consume any internal energy when using the light body lifting technique. Instead, he was recovering all the time.
With the help of the wind, he can fly far away in one step. Although he cannot reach the level of a grandmaster who can fly in the air, he can already achieve a short "flight".
Under the moonlight, Wang Yao's figure flashed by on the mountaintops, just as the saying goes, soaring up to 90,000 miles, and transforming into the blue sky in an instant.
Even so, it would take more than a short time to travel. Based on his speed, it would take at least one night to reach the westernmost part and the desolate desert where the people of Wu Dynasty were unwilling to go.
The next day came in a blink of an eye. Just as the sky was getting light, the streets of towns and breakfast stalls were already buzzing with discussion.
The restaurant, which is usually only bustling in the evening and afternoon, is now extremely lively, because these warriors are gathering to celebrate the death of the Demon Sect's Holy Son. The latest martial arts ranking list is said to have been updated overnight by Baixiao Tower, and warriors have been specially dispatched to various major cities. This shows how much they value it.
Nothing else changed, the only thing that changed was Poison Fist Bian Jiu, who jumped from eighth on the Earth List to first on the Earth List.
He once again set a new record, that is, in just over a month, he jumped from just breaking through to the Grandmaster level to becoming the number one on the Earth List.
There is no one before him and no one after him. All of this is referring to today. Today, Bian Jiu is number one on the Huang list, the Xuan list, and the Di list. Who else can do it?
Even the Martial Ancestor of that time never ranked first among the three lists. Even though he had the ability to rank first on the Earth List, he didn't do it.
From a certain perspective, Wang Yao has surpassed the Martial Ancestor, and it is no longer appropriate to praise him with the Martial Ancestor's qualifications.
The name Bian Jiu is destined to be famous throughout the ages in this world. If he can become a Grand Master on the Heavenly Ranking, he will create a true legend of a generation, and the Martial Ancestor will be mentioned alongside Bian Jiu.
At this time, Wang Yao was rushing on his way frantically. He was afraid that if he arrived too late, the Demon Sect would get the news and retreat first. Wouldn't that mean he would miss a big show?
The sky was clear and Wang Yao was chasing the white clouds on the top of the mountain. The thin mist washed his face, making it moist.
Suddenly, a huge force of luck descended from the sky, condensing the shadow of a heavenly book above his head into a solid entity, although it was only for a moment.
But what does this also mean? Wang Yao knows it very well. He has now topped the list!
