Chapter 2017: The End of the Challenge
"The reward is indeed tempting."
"The principle I follow is to not do things that harm others and not benefit myself."
" When things reach an extreme, they will reverse. I only need the fourth place, so I will challenge the fourth place. "
" The reward for the first place is very good, but to me, it’s just a piece of data. It’s not very useful. To others, it might be like I need the fourth place. If I give up the fourth place and snatch someone else’s love, that would be violating my own principles. "
" I have never done anything that harms others and does not benefit myself. I have never killed anyone and robbed anyone of their treasures. This time will be the same. "
Li Lingtian was tempted by the prize for first place, let alone the triple reward.
However, he knew that when things reached an extreme, they would reverse.
His performance was already heaven-defying. If he did something that harmed others and did not benefit himself to offend the first place, it would definitely make the first place resentful and dissatisfied. Although he was not afraid of the first place, there was no need for him to do that.
The higher one’s cultivation, the deeper one’s comprehension of the heavens and the Dao. Their outlook on life would also be sublimated, and their views on things would also be different.
"Sir Ling Tian is the real person."
"This is a true expert."
" As expected, a monster has a monster’s personality! " 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘱𝘶𝑏.𝑐𝘰𝑚
"In front of him, even those who claim to be strong will feel inferior."
"When things reach an extreme, they will turn against each other. This is indeed the truth."
"You really can’t do things that harm others without benefiting yourself."
"Just this state of mind is enough for everyone to look up to."
On Cloud Island, hundreds of thousands of powerful cultivators felt ashamed upon hearing Li Lingtian’s words. No wonder he was such a heaven-defying monster. His views and principles were beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
To be able to break the rules and laws, it might be an extraordinary heart.
Otherwise, Li Lingtian’s terrifying and heaven-defying nature would be beyond imagination and comprehension.
" Very good. As expected of the number one monstrous genius in the Eastern Wood Sacred Realm in the past ten million years. "
Wang Tianling stared at Li Lingtian as if he wanted to see through him. However, he saw Li Lingtian as a vast starry sky, giving off a majestic aura and vastness. He could not see Li Lingtian’s personality at all. This personality had already surpassed Godhood.
After living for thousands of years, this was the first time he was enlightened by a young man who was only 500 years old.
Deep down, he was impressed by Li Lingtian’s words. This was the principle and spirit of a powerhouse. He would not fight for something he did not need, no matter how good it was. If he needed something, he would get it even if his soul was destroyed. He would never do anything that would harm others and not benefit himself.
He was shocked when he heard Li Lingtian say that he had never killed anyone for their treasures. There was no powerhouse in this world who had not killed someone for their treasures, yet Li Lingtian had never done so.
Even though everyone was shocked, they did not need to lie when they thought of Li Lingtian’s identity, his heaven-defying nature, and his unparalleled means. No one had the right to make him lie.
"I don’t mind sparring with Mr. Nalan and Mr. Zhao Yuxiao."
"Let’s forget about it today. I won’t cause trouble."
Li Lingtian looked at the three Perfected True God powerhouses on the challenge stage. He really had the intention to fight them. He was confident that he would be able to defeat an Upper True God but he did not know how far he would be from a Perfected True God powerhouse.
A first place and a second place. Such a Perfected Real God was indeed a good opponent.
As for Fairy Qingshui, Ling Yunmin, he really had no intention of competing with a woman.
"Based on your words, I’ll teach you a Divine Ability when the time comes."
"When the time comes, Sir Ling Tian can show mercy."
Nalan Yunting and Zhao Yuxiao were relieved when they saw that Li Lingtian had stopped challenging them.
As for Li Lingtian’s offer to spar with them, it was merely a polite remark and was not taken seriously.
The two of them were in an extremely good mood. After saying that, they laughed loudly.
"Sir Ling Tian, are you looking down on me?"
At that moment, Ling Yunmin, Fairy of Clear Water from the Water Dividing Pavilion, was exuding a cold aura. She looked at Li Lingtian with her beautiful eyes and asked. Although her luck was cold, she sounded like a couple who were in a fit of pique.
"I’m innocent!"
" Fairy Qing Shui, you’ve wronged me to death. Fairy Qing Shui is a Perfected True God and is extremely powerful. How can you say that I look down on you? "
"It’s just that I’ve always believed that girls are meant to be pampered, not to be hurt, especially beautiful girls, haha."
Li Lingtian felt wronged when he saw Ling Yunmin’s expression. He had never intended to make an enemy out of a woman.
Moreover, he was an expert at the Great Circle of the True God Realm. If he were to make an enemy of such a person, he would be looking for trouble.
Then, he explained with a smile on his face. In the end, he could not help but laugh.
Li Lingtian was relaxed but the powerful cultivators on the Cloud Island were shocked. He was the only one in the Azure Fallen Immortal Sea who dared to openly tease Fairy Qing Shui, who was a Perfected True God.
However, Li Lingtian’s words eased the tense atmosphere on Little Cloud Island.
"I hereby announce."
"This ranking battle is over."
" Ranked number one, Nalan Yunting of the Blood Sword Pavilion. "
"Second place, Zhao Yuxiao."
"Third place, Ling Yunmin."
"Fourth place, Li Lingtian."
"Fifth place, Zhou Tianyue."
"Sixth place, Qin Lan."
“..”
Wenren Tian was filled with admiration as well. Li Lingtian was the only person in the entire Green Fallen Immortal Sea who dared to tease Fairy Qing Shui, a Perfected True God, in front of hundreds of thousands of powerful cultivators.
He looked at Wang Tianling and the others. They looked at each other and nodded, indicating that they could announce the rankings.
Wenren Tian stood up and announced the results of the ranking battle.
From the first place to the 100th place, the ranking list had already been loaded and could be seen by oneself.
Only the top 100 experts would be considered the supreme beings of the Azure Falling Immortal Sea.
Next, it was time to award the top 100.
The first to tenth place were given out by Wang Tianling, and the rest were given out by Wenren Wuhen and Wenren Tian of the Lightning Sword Pavilion. When they saw the rewards for the top 100, hundreds of thousands of cultivators were extremely envious.

Boom!
Boom!
Roar!
In the Azure Falling Immortal Sea, a demonic beast the size of a mountain was moving quickly in the sea.
This huge demonic beast came out from the center of the fog in the forbidden area deep in the Qing Luo Immortal Sea. It was constantly devouring the immortal Qi in the sky. The water-type immortal Qi and nutrients in the immortal sea were also constantly being devoured.
Wherever it passed, the immortal energy quickly disappeared, and the space formed a vacuum.
The demonic beast devoured the immortal energy, and its body kept changing, becoming stronger and stronger.
What was even more terrifying was that this huge demonic beast not only devoured immortal energy, but it also devoured small islands. Large islands were crushed by its huge body and directly sank.
All of this was simply destruction.
"There are humans!"
The roaring demon beast moved quickly as it devoured the immortal energy and everything in front of it.
The body that looked like a mountain moved extremely fast. Even an ordinary True God powerhouse might not have such a fast speed.
At this moment, the roaring demonic beast stopped, and a strange aura soared into the sky.
Soon, the demonic beast spoke in human language. Its blood-red eyes, which were the size of lanterns, emitted a demonic red light. Then, it moved forward at an even faster speed because it discovered that there were countless human auras millions of miles away.

"The exchange reward is here."
The Cloud Sea Trading Company’s Little Cloud Island Casino was specially set up for the ranking battle of the Green Falling Immortal Sea. Moreover, it was specially set up for the bets of the top ten. This was the status of the number one trading company. Ordinary bets were simply not in their eyes.
As soon as the ranking battle ended, countless powerful cultivators came here to exchange for rewards.
At this moment, a crisp voice sounded. An invisible force made countless experts involuntarily make way for them. In the passage, a young girl in light green clothes walked over with a smile.
Behind the young lady, there was a purple-robed woman and a white-robed young man.
The powerful cultivators who were initially annoyed could not help but show respect and admiration when they saw the white-robed young man among the three. This was because the white-robed young man was one of the most dazzling and powerful figures in the ranking battle, Li Lingtian of the Blue Moon Sect.
The person who had once caused the entire Cloud Island to be in an uproar in the ranking battle had shocking abilities.
He dared to tease Fairy Qing Shui, Ling Yunmin, in front of hundreds of thousands of True God Stage cultivators.
The sword formation shocked all the experts and even the Perfected True God experts trembled.
"Sir Ling Tian."
"Sir Ling Tian."
"Sir Ling Tian."
As Li Lingtian walked, countless powerhouses automatically made way for him and greeted him respectfully. Their respect and admiration came from the bottom of their hearts.
This was the treatment of the strong. The strong were respected. As long as you were strong, others would respect you.
Li Lingtian nodded in return when he saw the powerhouses greeting him.
"I wonder who Fairy is betting on?"
"How much did you bet?"
When the dealer saw the girl in light green coming to redeem the reward and Li Lingtian, he knew that she was one of Li Lingtian’s men. After bowing to greet Li Lingtian, he asked Xiao Mengxuan.
Xiao Mengxuan was only a Revered Martial Artist while the Zhuang Family was a True God. However, Xiao Mengxuan was Li Lingtian’s subordinate, so her status was naturally different.
" One million best-grade spirit stones. I bet on the top ten grand elders. "
Xiao Mengxuan took out a jade slip and handed it to the Zhuang family.
She was disguised when she came to bet. The banker and the other experts naturally didn’t know Xiao Mengxuan, but that wasn’t important. As long as she had a jade slip, it would prove the number of bets and the target she bet on.
" You’re the one who bet a million Supreme Grade Spirit Stones on Sir Ling Tian’s top ten. "
Hearing Xiao Mengxuan’s words, the banker’s expression changed drastically. He smiled bitterly in his heart. What he was afraid of had come. Although he knew that there were wins and losses in gambling, he had lost too much this time.
He had long known that what was supposed to come would come, but when it really came, his heart could not help but tremble.
However, as a member of the number one trading company, he had a certain level of mental fortitude. He quickly calmed down and sent his divine sense into the jade slip. The information in the jade slip was not fake.
