Grateful and tearful, Mo Chen took a moment to calm himself and stopped being polite.
He then mentioned dozens of materials, each of which Brother Cheng had.
Some were obtained through random draws, while others were just part of the spoils of battle.
And every single one was more than sufficient.
In just a short while, Mo Chen was shocked to find that he could immediately reshape his Immortal Body.
This left him both surprised and delighted, though the shock far outweighed the joy.
He couldn't fathom how so many precious materials were gathered together.
Even if the Child of the Plane had extremely strong luck and could find treasures just by stepping out, it would still require some training to obtain them, wouldn't it?
"Are all the materials gathered?"
"Yes, yes! They really are all gathered!"
Mo Chen was profoundly moved.
To reshape the Immortal Body, he had originally planned to spend a billion years slowly enduring it.
Although he had thought of getting help from Jiang Cheng, he had only hoped for a few materials at most.
He never would have dreamed that everything would be gathered at once.
Additionally, because the quantity of materials was extremely abundant, this time the starting point of his reshaped Immortal Body wouldn't be low.
This Child of the Plane, it's truly worth following him.
In just three days, Mo Chen reappeared in front of Brother Cheng.
His apparent cultivation had completely transformed, becoming a Ninth-grade True Immortal.
The system unsurprisingly dinged again, notifying Brother Cheng that he received 80 billion points.
Because his value in the eyes of the system had increased yet again.
"Thank you, Sect Leader, for the grace of rebirth; the old me cannot repay you even with my utmost gratitude..."
Upon meeting again, this former Demon Venerable directly knelt down.
Jiang Cheng hurriedly lifted him up, "We are all one family, there's no need for such formality."
"Has your talent been enhanced now?"
Even though Mo Chen didn't want to burden Brother Cheng further, he couldn't utter a single polite refusal.
As a cultivator, who wouldn't want better talent?
He had been enviously watching those disciples of the Feixian Sect transform themselves one after another.
Back then, he had no way to improve.
But now, it was finally his turn.
"Much obliged to the Sect Leader!"
Three days later, Mo Chen, who originally had Fourth-class Talent, was directly raised to First-class.
His Demon Body also reached the Purple Gold Level.
Having mingled in the Immortal Realm for many years, he knew more than anyone what this talent signified.
As long as he continued to live, there was a great chance he could achieve Immortal Emperor status in the future!
This talent was just that terrifying.
The half-month period quickly arrived, and experts from various Great Realms gathered once more.
Jiang Cheng waved his hand and sent out all the disciples of the Feixian Sect.
"I'll leave these disciples of mine to you to command this time."
He hoped that in the last few Ascension Battles, his disciples could seize the opportunity to gain combat experience from the Immortal Realm.
"In the second round, only 29,999 people can participate; you can arrange the rest yourselves."
In fact, various Great Realms already had a rough list of candidates.
More than 50 Profound Immortal level experts were undoubtedly all on board, led by Mo Chen.
After Immortal Mo's talent was raised to First-class, he also broke through to a Celestial Immortal in these few days.
Don't look at his realm not matching that of Profound Immortals; the foundation of the former Demon Venerable is there.
Among these more than 50 people, he is currently the only one who can contend with a Ninth-grade Golden Immortal alone.
There are also 12,000 Celestial Immortals who will all enter the battle.
After all, such Ascension Battles are about sending in the strongest, not a conventional war where ambushes or fort defenses come into play.
The remaining candidates are entirely True Immortals.
Nowadays, the superficial realm of Dingtian City isn't high, but its overall strength is quite formidable.
Even if Brother Cheng isn't around, it's likely still in the top ten.
The choices for Profound Immortal and Celestial Immortal candidates are easy, but not so for True Immortals.
Of today's 120,000 experts, only the last few thousand haven't become Immortals yet.
With limited slots and a pressing desire to secure a place on the battlefield, the Great Realms have even started to quarrel.
Besides wanting to show themselves off, there was also Jiang Cheng's promise driving them.
The spoils obtained in this battle, the Storage Rings belong to the 'investor' Sect Leader Jiang, but the Immortal Artifacts belong to them.
How could they not all scramble for a chance?
Ninety-nine percent of them still don't have an Immortal Artifact!
The heavy task of selecting True Immortal positions fell on the few War Saints of the Hundred Battle Domain.
This put them in a difficult position.
"Our Desolate Domain is definitely going all out; no one should think about taking our slots!"
"If you don't believe in the combat power of our Demon Realm, we can have a test run."
"Winning the first battle is important; we sword cultivators love a challenge!"
"Our few True Immortals from the Ten Thousand Bones Domain, in terms of skeleton hardness, can match Profound Immortals. If you don't pick us, then you have no eyes for talent!"
"We might as well have a battle; let me show you what it means to be the strongest True Immortal!"
"You think you're the strongest True Immortal? Come on, let's compete with our Spiritual Void Domain!"
For a while, the place became a chaotic, almost resembling an internal selection contest.
Jiang Cheng was quite helpless.
Damn it, do you all have to be this eager?
Do you really need to show off how impressive you are?
In the end, it was the Gui Cang Sword Immortal, Taichang Profound Immortal, and a few other esteemed old experts, along with Mo Chen as a veteran judge, who considered various factors such as coordination and collaboration, finally selecting all the True Immortal candidates.
Those selected were elated.
They didn't actually know that Sect Leader Jiang could resurrect them; they were taking the risk of dying in battle.
But it's not like they lacked the power to fight this time.
Under these conditions, if they were still afraid of death and avoided battle, they wouldn't have risen to the top of a Domain in the first place.
Those who weren't selected were pounding their chests, strongly requesting to rotate in the next battle.
Everyone arrived at the Ascension Platform.
Although Jiang Cheng had already challenged so many times and was used to it, he still flamboyantly held a swearing-in ceremony.
He went on stage to make a brief speech full of hot air.
He couldn't help it; in a venue full of thousands of eyes on him, he succumbed to his urge to be pretentious.
Afterwards, under the watchful eyes of the city's citizens, he once again operated the Jade Ruler to call up the Ascension Chart.
Until now, everyone still didn't know which city he wanted to challenge.
Brother Cheng unhesitatingly selected Shuangdeng City, the old nemesis.
Although he killed their City Lord last time, they broke his victory streak, and it had been irking him!
With a blinding light, the Ascension Platform vanished from the crowd's view.
When it reappeared, they were already in the Challenge Space.
When the two sides met, Shuangdeng City was incredibly surprised.
After their City Lord was slain back then, they quickly had a new City Lord.
In the years that followed, they even intended to challenge Dingtian City again, but they couldn't secure the chance.
Over the years, they steadily developed, especially flaunting the title of the only city that had defeated Dingtian City, and recruited some experts.
Now they had climbed back to the top ten.
"Jiang Cheng, do you dare to challenge us again?"
"Don't forget, last time you lost to us!"
It was commonly recognized that in Dingtian City, Jiang Cheng was the only one who could truly hold his own in a battle.
People avoided provoking him not because they feared a face-off, but rather because if they encountered him, they wouldn't even have a chance to flee.
The loss would be too great.
If it really came to a fight, they still believed they could secure this victory.
But this time, the situation was evidently different. Dingtian City, which had always sent only one person into battle, was now overwhelmingly filled with warriors.
