Jiang Cheng is now a First Grade Profound Immortal.
With the 992 Main Rule Daoist Hearts, plus one Immortal King Level Five Elements Martial Dao, his normal attack power has already surpassed the Golden Immortal range.
And with the Azure Dragon Essence Blood, dozens of Heroic Soul Buffs, and Immortal Slayer Spear added...
"Jiang Cheng, have you thought this through? Even if you can kill some of us, you yourself definitely won't survive this battle!"
The Red Moon City Lord opposite was still spouting nonsense.
This round, they had a definite advantage in numbers.
They weren't worried about not winning, the key was how to win.
The difference between losing one person and losing ten thousand.
The former is painless, while the latter would cause Red Moon City to instantly collapse, and not recover for many years afterwards.
"Anyway, you're bound to lose this time, why risk your life?"
"I advise you to retreat, at least then you'll survive."
They hoped to win without fighting.
That way, no cost would be incurred.
But unfortunately, Brother Cheng was resolute.
It was his first time being pointed at and told someone wanted to 'play' with him more.
He couldn't let this stand.
So, he swung his sword.
Accompanying this swing, the entire challenge space began to shake violently.
The original scene vanished instantly, deafening explosion sounds filled the air.
The space distorted repeatedly, in the void, a giant sword swept across everything.
Whether mountains, rivers, or living beings.
Under this strike, everything turned to dust in an instant!
No resistance, and certainly no counterattack, because there simply wasn't time.
Boom!
Countless Immortal Cities in the Lower Immortal Realm even saw the Ascension Chart shaking constantly.
"What's going on?"
"What happened?"
"Did something go wrong with the Ascension Battle?"
"Now, Red Moon City should be challenging Dingtian City, right?"
Perhaps because this strike exceeded the limits set by the Lower Immortal Realm, the challenge space shook for quite a long time before slowly calming down.
Brother Cheng didn't have such thoughts, he quickly collected the scattered spoils.
Due to the overwhelming attack power this time, many items were destroyed on the spot.
Fortunately, what remained was plenty, much more worthwhile than several dozen prior solo duels.
"See, this is the correct battle posture."
"Why all the pointless chatter?"
Behind him, the Three-Eyed Tiger was petrified.
That was 29,999 experts, not 29,999 pigs.
Among them, no less than seven Golden Immortals, hundreds of Profound Immortals, the rest were all Celestial Immortals.
Defeated in one strike?
This is ridiculously exaggerated!
"Brother, how strong are you really? Could you have actually been an Immortal once?"
Having witnessed Brother Cheng during his Soul Splitting Realm before, its belief wavered now.
"What else?"
"I've told you countless times, yet you don't believe."
Brother Cheng casually responded, then waved at the last remaining Saint Tier Cultivator opposite.
He was the only survivor on that side.
"Little brother, it's really unfortunate that we can't play more times with your Red Moon City."
The Saint Tier Cultivator looked dazed.
The changes happened too quickly for him to process, leaving him in a state of shock.
After winning the first two rounds, they didn't even need to fight the third round, Dingtian City was declared the winner.
By now, countless Immortal Cities in the Lower Immortal Realm were eagerly awaiting the challenge's conclusion.
Despite knowing the outcome was predetermined, they all wanted to witness that moment.
"Red Moon City took a big advantage this time."
"Wonder if they sacrificed their City Lord or not."
"Surely not, we thought of finding replacements, they'd surely think of it too."
"Alas, have to wait another year."
The top-tier of Silver Bell City and Shuangdeng City were still regretting.
"It's over!"
"Finished so quickly?"
Countless cultivators staring at the Ascension Chart finally saw movement on the list.
"Dingtian City... 112 wins."
"Red Moon City... 116 wins."
First there was a stunned silence, then a collective uproar.
This result was the complete opposite of what they initially anticipated.
"How can this be?"
"Did Dingtian City win?"
"How could Dingtian City win? Weren't they seen through and reduced to mere chickens?"
"Impossible..."
"What's impossible, what if Dingtian City's Essence Core was restored?"
"In hindsight, wasn't Red Moon City essentially courting death?"
"Huh, that's not right either!"
A blind group member suddenly spotted the crux.
"Look at the list, Red Moon City didn't fall to the bottom, meaning their Ascension Platform is intact!"
If the Essence Core was devoured and the Ascension Platform destroyed, all victories would be reset to zero.
Now, Red Moon City just dropped from 117 wins to 116, indicating their Essence Core wasn't devoured.
"What exactly happened?"
Countless people expressed curiosity.
With so many inquiries, the result of that battle soon spread.
After all, there was still a survivor remaining.
From the City Lord down, Red Moon City faced total annihilation!
And Jiang Cheng on the opposite side only used one move.
The Ascension Battles have been held numerous times, uncountable matches staged.
Heavy casualties are common, but total annihilation seems to be unprecedented.
This is simply too shocking.
When the news spread, countless cultivators across the Lower Immortal Realm were overwhelmingly jolted!
Especially Shuangdeng City and Silver Bell City, the two cities narrowly escaped such devastation, sweating profusely.
Just a bit more, just a tiny bit, and total annihilation would have befell them.
Nothing shakes them more than thinking of that.
After this battle, no one dared challenge Dingtian City again.
Such huge losses, who could bear them?
And in Dingtian City, the atmosphere was one of celebration.
Everyone initially thought the City Lord had weakened, after all, a year ago a slip occurred.
Throughout this year, many city dwellers worried they wouldn't stay in the top ten ranks.
Now they've beaten the seventh, everyone felt reassured as if having taken a calming pill.
"City Lord Jiang is too reliable."
"Absolutely, single-handedly turned the Ascension Battle into a solo performance. Is anyone else capable of this?"
"Haha, having such a strong City Lord is truly fortuitous."
"Indeed, in nine more years we could reap benefits from Ascending to the Middle Immortal Realm!"
"Ascension doesn't even matter. Now our Immortal City is unparalleled, crushing all Immortal Cities in the Middle Immortal Realm."
"Hahaha, that's true!"
Sect Leader Jiang is also elated, as this haul was substantial.
After meticulous counting, he exchanged the points, accumulating over 8 trillion.
After drawing 80 Level 8 prizes, his Main Rules had over 220 reached Mastery Level.
Now, his Daoist Heart can crush any Golden Immortal even without activating tenfold critical strikes.
He could even challenge an Immortal Venerable.
Another Taishu Immortal Rhyme elevated his Four Extremes Martial Dao to the Immortal King Level.
However, the Immortal Yuan Power needed to elevate his Realm is exorbitant, despite so many draws and pills, he only advanced from a First Grade to a Third Grade Profound Immortal.
With his combat power rising repeatedly, Brother Cheng felt somewhat lost.
He realized he hadn't died in a long time.
He found this a bit disconcerting.
And with his current power, there's seemingly no existence in the Lower Immortal Realm capable of killing him.
