Chapter 1077: Chapter 444: Second Batch of Entrants

Wu Chang’s consciousness drifted away from Martial Fool’s grudge, his eyes full of sighs.

An Rong called the Grudge Master "Martial Fool," and it was not mistaken at all. Ever since entering the Kaiyang Immortal Mansion and witnessing the Immortal Mansion Master’s divine martial arts, Martial Fool was utterly immersed, unable to let go of anything in his heart.

Even his own physical condition was cast aside, thinking only of how to comprehend the Immortal Mansion Master’s martial arts, completely oblivious that he was about to burn out.

No wonder An Rong said Martial Fool died from exhaustion of heart power; indeed, the death he exhibited was just as such.

The fatal injuries on his body were healed by Immortal fate; his flesh reached the core of the Immortal Mansion but was then rejected. If Wu Chang hadn’t reviewed the grudge playback, even a little Death God detective would have been baffled.

The Immortal Mansion Master’s clone was very measured in action, only inflicting disciplinary injuries, never damaging the core of those tested.

Many cultivators attempted the fifth round of trials, where only those who gave up the test left, not those heavily injured and unable to recover, or left involuntarily.

Who would have thought that Martial Fool, who would not even suffer minor injuries under normal circumstances, would die at the final challenge.

Even the Immortal Mansion Master’s clone wouldn’t have thought that Martial Fool would receive the last move so precisely, seize the timing so well, leaving it with no escape.

Such coincidence can only be said that Martial Fool was destined for a calamity.

If Martial Fool could have survived this calamity, his body might have been able to endure a bit longer, allowing him to completely obtain the immortal fate of Kaiyang Immortal Mansion, letting it heal his arid body and will. Then the number one expert in the World Dungeon would undoubtedly be Martial Fool.

Even as the World Dungeon begins now, Martial Fool might have already become a true Lower Level God, storming the Demon Realm, soloing the Four Great Demon Kings unbeknownst.

It’s a great pity that Martial Fool collapsed before obtaining immortal fate. Objectively speaking, in the Dungeon Plane, Martial Fool was undoubtedly the most suitable cultivator for the immortal fate of Kaiyang Immortal Mansion.

But if expanding the Domain, Martial Fool is clearly not more suitable for this immortal fate than Wu Chang himself.

Luck is a kind of strength too; since Martial Fool fell at the last step, it indicates that this immortal fate should belong to Wu Chang instead.

Recalling the scenes from Martial Fool’s grudge, Wu Chang paced back to the wooden tower of the fifth round of trials.

Seeing Wu Chang’s return, An Rong immediately cast an expectant gaze, waiting for Wu Chang to enter the Martial Gate trial and defeat the Immortal Mansion Master’s clone.

Ever since witnessing Wu Chang single-handedly and effortlessly defeat the Candle Yin Remains, An Rong held almost blind faith in him, believing that as long as he acted, he would surely obtain the immortal fate of Kaiyang Immortal Mansion.

Even Wu Chang himself, before seeing Martial Fool’s grudge, didn’t have such great confidence in himself.

However, upon reflection, it makes sense. Candle Yin Remains at the Demon King level, a half realm higher than a human Earth Immortal absorbing immortal fate; Wu Chang could crush Candle Yin Remains at the Great Grandmaster level, leaving indigenous spectators of the Dungeon Plane utterly bewildered.

Not just An Rong, even Emperor Zhaoning had to make three visits to Tang Sect after witnessing this.

Erin, worried that Wu Chang was not well-prepared, said:

"Shall I try the final challenge first?"

Wu Chang shook his head and said, "No need, I have confidence."

There is only one immortal fate; whoever completes the fifth round of the trial first can take away the immortal fate.

This made the Scholar and the Drunkard, although having failed the trial, focus their attention on Wu Chang. Hearing Wu Chang’s words, their expressions became subtle.

They mocked the Tang Sect Sect Leader for his overconfidence, thinking hidden weapons would have any effect on the Immortal Mansion Master’s clone, yet, due to An Rong’s trust in Wu Chang, they were filled with nervousness.

The two former rivals surprisingly found themselves on the same side.

The Scholar transmitted to the Drunkard, "The Sect Leader Tang has an extraordinary presence. The first time he entered the Immortal Mansion, he passed the first four stages faster than little Tai Sui. Based on my understanding of Tang Sect’s cultivation techniques, perhaps the Sect Leader Tang could withstand thirty moves undefeated the first time he enters the Martial Gate."

The Drunkard Su Wangyou had some respect for the Tang Sect Leader; though unwilling to relinquish the immortal fate, he hesitated to join the Scholar in mocking Wu Chang’s performance, so he said:

"Perhaps Brother Tang truly has the confidence to pass the trial, who knows."

The Scholar said, "If Tang Sect cultivators could defeat the Kaiyang Immortal Mansion Master face-to-face, then at full power, wouldn’t they be capable of defeating the Demon Realm’s Demon Kings?"

Su Wangyou was rendered speechless, but refusing to back down, he said:

"I don’t possess your prowess of mastering ten thousand techniques, breaking ten thousand techniques. If you are so sure, why not make a bet with me?"

The Scholar did not back down, immediately responding, "What kind of bet?"

Su Wangyou said, "Bet that the Sect Leader Tang could withstand at least forty or fifty moves!"

The Scholar sneered and mocked, "I thought Sect Leader Su had such great confidence in the Sect Leader Tang; turns out there’s just trust for ten or twenty more moves. Not worth betting on."

Su Wangyou, having drunk a bit too much, and freshly defeated by the Immortal Mansion Master, was somewhat agitated, so he said:

"Then let’s bet if the Sect Leader Tang can successfully complete the trial or not."

The Scholar squinted, surprised that Su Wangyou, out of spite, would bet on such an impossible wager.

"What does Sect Leader Su want to wager?"

Su Wangyou said, "If I lose, my Jinlin Sect will help you reforge a magical artifact!"

The Scholar raised an eyebrow; in the Great Mystic cultivation world, regarding the forging of magical artifacts, undoubtedly, the Divine Sword Sect where Alliance Hierarch Lü Changgeng belongs is the strongest. However, Jinlin Sect possesses a skill that even the Divine Sword Sect cannot match.

That is artifact reforging.

Jinlin Sect can reforge damaged or low-level magical artifacts using special forging techniques, combined with the sect’s unrevealed secret, spiritual gold scale, to not only repair artifacts but also enhance their effects to a certain extent.
