Chapter 566: Giving You a Chance for Your Sake
"Huo Wuji, you idiot!!!"
"Damn it, we should've killed him earlier!"
"To be so arrogant in front of a great power, it's their own fault for dying. Now they've even implicated us!"
"Annoying, this great power's cultivation is at least in the late Heavenly Pill Realm, or possibly even at the peak! The power of this Great Accomplishment Realm is terrifying; we don't even have a chance to resist!"
...
The four Hall Masters had pale expressions, using all their cultivation and strength, but it was utterly meaningless.
It was like the sea falling from the sky, and they only had a small paper cup in their hands.
What could they use to fight against it?
At this moment, what the four Hall Masters hated the most wasn't the powerful individual who was about to kill them!
It was Huo Wuji, this idiot!
Don't even talk about the senior great power with immeasurable cultivation.
If an ant dared to prattle before them, they would slap it dead!
Below the Heavenly Pill Realm, all were ants. Did they think it was a joke?
Huo Wuji only had a "Saint" for a father and the backing of the Zhenyu Sacred Ground!
Otherwise, with a fool like Huo Wuji, they would have already slapped him to death!
"Elder, this, this idiot offended you, damn it!"
"Yes, we really didn't mean to offend you, Elder!"
"We beg you for mercy, Elder!"
"Elder, please don't kill me..."
...
The only thing the four Hall Masters could do at this moment was to plead one after another.
"Elder, this person was brought by me. One person's actions should be separate from the others'. I implore the Elder to spare them. If you want to kill or maim someone, just do it to me alone!" Just at this moment, Ling Tianyu suddenly spoke up, shouldering the immense pressure of gravity's domain. His face was resolute and unwavering.
"!" The other four Hall Masters, though they were all in the early Heavenly Pill Realm, couldn't help but feel a hint of respect when they looked at Ling Tianyu's figure at this moment.
The higher the cultivation, the more afraid of death they were!
How many cultivators were willing to be as decisive as Ling Tianyu, to take responsibility and even sacrifice themselves to save others?
In comparison...
Huo Wuji was just an idiot!
Thinking about how if Huo Wuji didn't die and became the next generation Saint, they would have to serve under this idiot's orders, the four Hall Masters felt a nauseating sensation fill their bodies.
But...
If it were Ling Tianyu who became the next Saint...
"Well, you, indeed, are quite something! If not for the sake of your face, you all would have already died!" The figure with their back to them spoke in a calm tone.
"!" The four Hall Masters were taken aback.
Doesn't that mean they should have died, and it was only Ling Tianyu's performance that saved them?
In this brief moment, Ling Tianyu had essentially saved their lives!
"Since that's the case, for the sake of your face, I'll give you a chance to live!"
"As long as you can withstand the power of gravity's domain I'm applying, I'll spare your lives. I'll also return Nan Gong Li to you!" The figure with their back to them said in a nonchalant manner.
"Come on!!!" Ling Tianyu roared with great power.
"Boom!" The next moment, the immense force of gravity's domain that had been pressing down on them lessened by a significant degree.
But at the same time...
"Splurt!" Ling Tianyu spat out a mouthful of blood directly, his whole body's seven apertures bleeding, and his body making a series of cracking sounds as it was compressed by the force.
"!" The four Hall Masters didn't need to see to know that the immense force of gravity's domain that had been pressing on them had now shifted onto Ling Tianyu!
Ling Tianyu endured, and they would live!
If he couldn't endure...
Everyone would die!
At this moment, the four Hall Masters stared at Ling Tianyu, a hard-to-describe emotion slowly surging within them.
For some reason!
As they looked at Ling Tianyu, who was resolute and enduring, standing firm and unbending under the oppressive force of gravity's domain, a feeling inexplicable to them welled up.
A feeling of wanting to follow!
Compared to Ling Tianyu!
Huo Wuji was just a fool!
Terrified by the upper realm's Nan Gong family, even Huo Tianya, who was too scared to even lift his head, not to mention the situation where the Three Domains of the Flaming Domain were annihilated. What aspect of his could compare to the current Ling Tianyu?
An existence like Ling Tianyu was worth following!
"If you want to give up, you can do so at any time!" The figure with their back to them casually said.
"In my dictionary, there are no words for giving up!!!" Ling Tianyu roared, even though he was covered in blood and his breath was weak, even though he was severely injured!
But his determination, his spirit, grew even stronger!
Almost simultaneously...
"Boom!" Ling Tianyu's cultivation, under the immense suppression of gravity's domain, unexpectedly broke through, directly entering the mid-wheel sea realm!
"A breakthrough under extreme circumstances?" The four Hall Masters were all shocked.
A breakthrough under extreme circumstances was something only top-tier geniuses could achieve!
For countless years, every genius who had experienced a breakthrough under extreme circumstances had later become a presence that shook the Northern Spirit Realm!
Such geniuses would only appear once every thousand years!
The four Hall Masters had never imagined that right in front of them, such a genius had actually appeared!
"Hmm? You've broken through? Then let's double the pressure!" The figure with their back to them spoke.
The force pressing on Ling Tianyu became even greater!
This time, Ling Tianyu even spat out blood, and his body began to slowly crumble under the immense pressure.
The four Hall Masters fell silent.
But at the same time, they all made the same decision.
"We will face the Elder's trial with him!!!" The four Hall Masters spoke simultaneously, stepping forward to stand beside Ling Tianyu.
"Boom!" The next moment, the crushing force of gravity's domain on Ling Tianyu's body dispersed quite a bit and spread to the bodies of the four Hall Masters.
"What terrifying pressure!"
"He's actually been enduring this immense pressure alone all this time?"
"This is what true talent is! This is what a true king is like!"
...
The more they felt the tremendous pressure on their bodies, the more they admired Ling Tianyu.
"Boom!" The immense pressure continued to increase. The five of them all spat out blood, but they all stood straight.
Even more so, they exchanged glances with each other and couldn't help but burst into laughter!
Facing adversity with resolve!
Even in death, they stood tall!
As cultivators, this was how they should be!
At this moment, the four Hall Masters completely forgot about the Zhenyu Sacred Ground, forgot about their status as Hall Masters, and forgot about everything else.
In
their eyes, there was only Ling Tianyu, that figure standing tall.
"Boom!" In the space of a breath, all the pressure vanished!
"Very good! In ten thousand years, you are the most outstanding genius I've seen! You can leave now! Three days from now, I will return Nan Gong Li to the Zhenyu Sacred Ground's custody!" The figure with their back to them spoke hoarsely.
"Thank you, Elder!!!" Ling Tianyu respectfully saluted, almost falling over right after.
But four big hands simultaneously reached out and supported Ling Tianyu.
It was the four Hall Masters.
After bidding farewell to the figure with their back turned, Ling Tianyu took the pills and, with the four Hall Masters, left the mountain.
Once they were a good distance away from the small mountain, the four Hall Masters exchanged glances and simultaneously kneeled in front of Ling Tianyu.
"Hmm? Four Hall Masters, what does this mean?" Ling Tianyu looked surprised.
"Starting from today, the four of us are willing to follow Lord Ling Tianyu!"
"But you are the Four Hall Masters of the Zhenyu Sacred Ground!"
"Haha, Huo Tianya, that waste, isn't qualified to be our master!"
"But, I'm only in the mid-wheel sea realm!"
"Although Lord Ling Tianyu's cultivation is not high, we firmly believe that within a hundred years, Lord Ling Tianyu will undoubtedly be the strongest in the Northern Spirit Realm!"
"Very well, I... understand!"
...
Ling Tianyu lightly nodded, a faint smile playing on his lips.
"Big Brother Ming is really impressive. This act has allowed me to easily control the influence of all four Hall Masters and even get rid of that idiot Huo Wuji. Moreover, it helped me falsely present a breakthrough under extreme circumstances... impressive!" Ling Tianyu slowly nodded.
"Well then, let's go back!"
"Yes!"
The four Hall Masters nodded. Filled with excitement, they followed Ling Tianyu back.
As for Huo Wuji?
Who would still care about that dead piece of trash idiot...
