Chapter 706: The Final Challenge

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The heavens turned dark. A dark red fire cloud descended from the sky. The fire cloud seemed to cover the entire sky.
A peerless pressure reverberated all around. It felt as though the sky had fallen. Everywhere, everyone was struck with awe and wonder.
Mo Wen raised his head and looked at the fire cloud in the sky. It was likely that only the Tower Spirit could pull off such a feat.
Mo Wen had just killed a pinnacle monstrous beast. The starlight became a sea of starlight, frenziedly surging into Mo Wen’s body.
After all the starlight had been absorbed, Mo Wen discovered that his current cultivation was now comparable to a second realm Martial Arts Grandmaster. However, he was only equivalent in terms of cultivation. He did not have the Heart of Clarity of the second realm Martial Arts Grandmasters.
The Tower Spirit’s voice slowly sounded. “The final challenge will soon commence. All human ancient martial art practitioners, please prepare yourselves.”
After another seven to eight minutes, the human ancient martial art practitioners in the space disappeared one by one. In the blink of an eye, all the human ancient martial art practitioners had disappeared from their original positions.
Space and time both shifted. When the human ancient martial art practitioners saw the scene before them, they were all shocked and stunned.
All of them, including Mo Wen, had appeared on top of the fire cloud.
The fire cloud was enormous, and no edge could be seen. A huge number of densely packed monstrous beasts crawled on it. When the human ancient martial art practitioners appeared on the fire cloud, the monstrous beasts stood up one by one. Their movements were like waves, spreading wide and far.
All the human ancient martial art practitioners appeared in an empty space that was less than a thousand square meters wide. Aside from the empty space, everywhere else was full of monstrous beasts.
Mo Wen glanced around his surroundings. He noticed that there were around two hundred and seventy human ancient martial art practitioners. Even the ones with the lowest cultivation were at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir Realm. The Martial Arts Grandmasters among them were actually the majority. There were around one hundred and eighty of them.
He discovered that Pei Fengwu, Jun Wulei, and the other youths had also risen to the realm of Martial Arts Grandmaster. Their bodies emanated rather powerful auras.
Although Martial Arts Grandmaster cultivation in this space was not true cultivation, their experiences in the Fighting Spirit Tower would have unimaginable benefits for their future practice. After all, it was equivalent to them walking down a path that they had previously walked. Naturally, they would encounter fewer bumps along the way.
Of course, this space and the memories of Mo Wen’s own practice in his previous life were not the same. The Fighting Spirit Tower simplified too many things. It was impossible for everything to be exactly the same as it was in real life. Hence, wanting to break through to the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm still required fate to be on one’s side. Of course, compared to ordinary ancient martial art practitioners, the chances of them becoming Martial Arts Grandmasters were certainly a bit higher.
Mo Wen nodded his head. The power of a hundred and eighty Martial Arts Grandmaster realm human ancient martial art practitioners was significant. Against the strengthened versions of the Fire Domain’s Seven Major Beast Kings, they should have a shot at victory.
Aside from the younger generation of ancient martial art practitioners, Mo Wen’s main concern was still the senior Martial Arts Grandmasters. They were the center of this challenge. Even if Pei Fengwu had risen to the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm, her combat power would certainly not be a match for strong practitioners who were already Martial Arts Grandmasters.
As expected, each of the Martial Arts Grandmasters had rich cultivation. They emanated auras of outrageous power. Nobody knew how much stronger they had become since the beginning of the contest. Most of these Martial Arts Grandmasters most likely had Martial Arts Grandmaster second realm combat ability.
Of course, Mo Wen was most concerned about the top strong practitioners such as Nangong Mingzhu, Chu Yuan, Tan Qiyue, Granny Jin Hua and Wang Changhan. Even among the Martial Arts Grandmasters, these people were rather famous, especially Nangong Mingzhu and Chu Yuan, who were mysterious immortal cultivators.
However, Mo Wen could not read the cultivation of Nangong Mingzhu and Chu Yuan. He instinctively felt that they had both reached the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm in terms of combat ability. Aside from them, Tan Qiyue and the other strongest human Martial Arts Grandmasters had also reached the Martial Arts Grandmaster third realm in terms of power.
Of course, their third realm was not the real third realm. They were only at the third realm in terms of power. It was impossible for them to have the enlightenment and spirituality of the Realm of Wisdom.
Among the human ancient martial art practitioners, debates began to sound. Everyone was nervous about the next challenge.
“There are so many monstrous beasts. It is practically a sea of beasts. It is too frightening.”
“Aside from the Fire Domain’s Seven Major Beast Kings, other illusionary beasts have appeared in the final challenge. As expected, things are more difficult than we imagined.
“All the monstrous beasts here are seventh rank and above. There are even a large number of Beast Kings. Fortunately, we had a final day of double rewards that raised the cultivation of everyone. Otherwise, with the power of these illusionary beasts, who knows how many will die.”
At the same time, people were also somewhat excited. As long as they passed the final challenge, they could leave this strange Fighting Spirit Tower.
Originally, there had been more than three hundred human ancient martial art practitioners, but only around two hundred and seventy were on the fire cloud. Where had the other fifty to sixty people gone? The only possible explanation was that they had died before making it through to the final challenge.
Among the Ming Temple team, many people had sullen expressions. They had discovered that Hou Jingfeng had not appeared on the top of the fire cloud. Earlier on, the members of the Ming Temple had discovered that they could not contact Hou Jingfeng. They couldn’t even find him after sending people out to look for him. At first, the members of the Ming Temple did not think much about it. After all, this space was very strange and it was possible that Hou Jingfeng might be in a special situation such as being held up in a certain place or he was carrying out a certain task.
Hou Jingfeng’s failure to appear on top of the fire cloud left only one possibility. They now realized that he must have died long ago in this space.
“Hou Jingfeng is dead. How is this possible?” The Ming Temple’s Second Sect Grand Elder had a hideous gaze. He glanced around the surroundings with an expressionless look. Everyone could feel his fury. The ancient martial art practitioners of the Ming Temple fell silent. None of them dared to say a word.
Hou Jingfeng was the Ming Temple’s chief disciple on the surface. He was the flagbearer for the Ming Temple’s younger generation. At the same time, he was also their future pillar.
With Hou Jingfeng’s talents, he had a high chance of reaching the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm. Losing such a person meant that the Ming Temple had lost much more than just a future Martial Arts Grandmaster.
The Second Sect Grand Elder Wang Changhan had brought Hou Jingfeng to this Fire Domain. Wang Changhan would be held responsible for his death and would certainly be punished by the Ming Temple. Although he was a Sect Grand Elder, and they would certainly not do much to him, this incident would certainly affect Wang Changhan’s reputation in the Ming Temple.
The negative effect that it would have on his reputation meant that Wang Changhan would not be able to contend for the position of Temple Leader.
The ancient martial art practitioners of the Ming Temple bowed their heads and did not speak: even Bu Xingyi was silent. Hou Jingfeng was dead. This would have a huge effect on the Ming Temple. The Ming Temple did not lack Martial Arts Grandmasters and missing Hou Jingfeng was not going to be too huge of an effect on this aspect. However, his death not only meant that they had they lost a future Martial Arts Grandmaster, but it would also affect the name of the Ming Temple in the ancient martial arts world. Many sects had brought their junior youths to the Fire Domain to learn from experience. However, the person who had died was a member of their own Ming Temple. The other youths were still alive and well.
If other dishonest people provoked them, the Ming Temple would most likely come out as a sect that had no future in the ancient martial arts world.
Roar!
An astonishing beast roar was heard in the sky. In the distance, a giant scorpion floated in the sky above. The giant scorpion was enormous, about four to five hundred meters long. It could truly be called a giant.
“All my subjects, slaughter them. Slaughter all the humans. If you kill any human, you will be handsomely rewarded. The more you kill, the higher the reward,” the giant scorpion slowly said. Its voice was like rumbling thunder, causing even the fire cloud to tremble and churn.
“That is the Fire Scorpion Beast King.”
Mo Wen narrowed his eyes slightly. He recognized the Beast King. It was the Fire Scorpion Beast King of the Fire Domain’s Seven Major Beast Kings. The Fire Scorpion Beast King now had a figure that was ten times larger than before. The aura from its body was even more terrifying, almost surpassing ordinary Pinnacle Beast Kings.
Mo Wen was certain that this Fire Scorpion Beast King was far more powerful than the Pinnacle Beast King he had met before. It was at least twice as strong.
Following the command of the Fire Scorpion Beast King, all the monstrous beasts on top of the fire cloud began to move. They swarmed towards the human ancient martial art practitioners. The sea of beasts was like the tide, churning as it surged over.
“Go all out and kill the Fire Domain’s Beast Kings. Don’t bother with the other monstrous beasts.”
With the flash of a beam of black light, Nangong Mingzhu led the way as she flew up. A pair of jade wings appeared on her back. With a gentle flap, her silhouette appeared far into the distance. She flew straight for the Fire Scorpion Beast King.
As long as they killed all the Fire Domain’s Beast Kings, they would win. They could not kill all of the illusionary beasts, and trying to do so would be pointless.
In an instant, all the human ancient martial art practitioners flew up, frantically flying towards the Fire Scorpion Beast King.
The monstrous beasts on top of the fire cloud were all seventh rank and above. All of them could fly. When the human ancient martial art practitioners flew up, a large number of monstrous beasts did so too, blocking, pouncing and surrounding them.
In the sky above and on the ground, the monstrous beasts were densely packed. The human ancient martial art practitioners had to break through the blockade of these monstrous beasts before they could approach the Fire Domain Beast King.
A bolt of lightning flashed. In the sky full of monstrous beasts, a golden silhouette flashed past. No one could stop it. Streaks of lightning covered Mo Wen’s body, constantly emanating a terrifying destructive aura.
His body sparkled with golden light. He was a Golden Body Luohan. The monstrous beasts that filled the sky could not get close to him. He wielded the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear, slowly moving forward.
Rumble!
The shadow of the gigantic Divine Spear appeared in the sky. It was more than a thousand meters long and had a diameter of a hundred meters. Everywhere it went, all the monstrous beasts crumbled one by one, turning into dust.
Lightning flashed past. A clear passageway appeared in front of Mo Wen. All the monstrous beasts which were blocking his way died. Other monstrous beasts had yet to fill up the void, so it caused such a bizarre, empty passageway to appear on the cloud.
Mo Wen’s figure disappeared from his original spot. With a few dashes, he had traversed the distance of a thousand meters, appearing in front of the Fire Scorpion Beast King, which was a thousand meters long.
“Such frightening power. What is that?”
Granny Jin Hua’s eyes were filled with awe. She stared shockingly at the empty passageway created by Mo Wen. Her lips quivered, yet she was at a loss for words.
One blow. With just one blow, Mo Wen had created such a destructive scene. Was that power that could be contained by an ancient martial art practitioner?
Even Nangong Mingzhu and Chu Yuan were shocked. They all turned and stared at Mo Wen.
