Chapter 178 - Multiple Peak-Realm Experts
Chapter 178: Multiple Peak-Realm Experts
The Council Hall still seemed a little crowded when more than a hundred people suddenly gathered in the hall.
It was not that there were so few human experts in the Langya Domain that there were only more than a hundred Grandmaster-Realm experts gathered together. This number was barely comparable to the Yang God Race hiding in Zhige City.
It was undeniable that there was indeed a gap between the number of human experts and the Yang God experts, but the gap was not so terrifying.
Just like Ding Zhan, there was more than one human expert who had already reached the end of the nine-rank system.
However, the Langya Domain had endless territory and there were many giant cities. Even if clearing the Yang God Race was the most important thing now, it was impossible for the human experts to come out with full strength.
After all, the giant cities still needed experts to guard them to prevent the ferocious beasts from invading.
The grandmasters led by Wu Shuang on this trip were all experts who had not been assigned to guard the city and had been temporarily transferred to this mission.
Moreover, with so many grandmasters gathered together, a very strange phenomenon happened.
Logically speaking, with more than a hundred grandmasters gathered together, their realms and strength would definitely be different.
However, the situation now was a little different. Among these grandmasters, the weak ones were only at the early stages of Rank-9 and would not exceed the advanced stages of Rank-9 at most.
Meanwhile, some experts had even completed three qualitative changes in their strength and were simply waiting for an opportunity to appear. Then, they could directly break through to the Connate Realm.
However, there were no peak-level Rank-9 experts.
At this moment, seven or eight grandmasters in the crowd seemed to have just advanced to the Peak Realm. Their auras were a little unstable, and they were still unable to completely restrain their pressure.
What was strange was that these seven or eight people had actually completed a qualitative change in their spiritual power and had stepped into the Peak Realm.
If it was just one or two people, it could still be considered a coincidence. However, if seven or eight people were in such a situation, it could no longer be explained as a coincidence.
Venerable Ning Jing seemed to have discovered something strange as well. She swept her gaze across the few grandmasters who had just advanced to the Peak Realm and could not help but reveal a faint smile.
At that moment…
Wu Shuang stood in front of everyone. Although there were some dark red spots of blood on her body and her aura was weak, she looked like a female general returning from a victory.
She stood up straight and bowed to Venerable Ning Jing. “Venerable Ning Jing, we’ve won this battle!”
“We did not suffer any major casualties. We wiped out all the Yang God thieves hiding in the various giant cities and did not leave any survivors.”
Venerable Ning Jing’s expression was also solemn. She nodded solemnly at everyone and said, “Thank you for your hard work!”
“Later, I will hold a banquet in the Venerable Palace to celebrate!”
When Wu Shuang and the grandmasters heard this, they shouted in unison, “Thank you, Venerable Ning Jing!”
The moment they finished speaking…
Only then did Wu Shuang and the others look at Wang Yi and Su Shiya with reverence and fanaticism.
This Venerable from Cang City had discovered the invasion of the Yang God Race.
It was also this Venerable who captured the Yang God Race’s Connate elder alive and obtained all the information about the Yang God Race’s hiding places.
It was also because of the Heaven and Earth Gate secret technique that this Venerable had passed down that they had the chance to wipe out the hidden experts of the Yang God Race.
Even though they were only able to escape unscathed because of the Connate-level weapon bestowed by this Venerable, there were still no casualties.
Therefore, when facing Wang Yi, even if it wasn’t because of his strength, the grandmasters still respected him extremely.
Wu Shuang and the others bowed to Wang Yi and Su Shiya. “Greetings, Lord Venerable and Madam!”
After all, public and private matters were separate. The report just now was about the war between the humans and the Yang God Race. It was a matter of the highest priority.
Otherwise, how could Wu Shuang and the others forget their manners in front of the Venerable and his wife, and only greet them at the end?
Wang Yi looked at everyone kindly and said with a smile, “There’s no need to be so polite.”
“All of you are heroes who fought for the human race. Later, we will celebrate with Fellow Daoist Ning Jing!”
At this moment, Su Shiya also stood up and said generously to everyone, “Thank you for your hard work.”
Wang Yi was happy to see Su Shiya so happy, but he did not say anything.
He simply cupped his hands at Venerable Ning Jing and said, “I have to congratulate you, Fellow Daoist Ning Jing.”
“Not only did we eliminate the threat of the Yang God Race, but we also have more Peak-Realm grandmasters under us now.”
When Venerable Ning Jing heard this, excitement appeared on her face. She said directly, “It’s also because of Fellow Daoist Wang that they have a chance to advance to the Peak Realm in this battle.”
Venerable Ning Jing could not help but feel happy over this.
With the current situation that the human race faced, any Peak-Realm expert could play a crucial role, let alone seven or eight.
Venerable Ning Jing suddenly shook her head slightly and sighed. “However, it’s a pity that the Yang God experts have already been eliminated. Otherwise, those peak Rank-9 Guardians who are still guarding the giant cities would have also had the chance to complete the qualitative change in their spiritual power and advance to the Peak Realm.”
Yes!
These seven or eight Peak-Realm grandmasters had clearly just broken through and their auras were still a little unstable.
It was because they had killed Rank-9 Yang God experts in this battle and absorbed enough pure spiritual power that they could complete the transformation of their spiritual power.
This was also why Wu Shuang and the others were in charge of the least huge cities and had the protection of the Guardian Wings, but they were the last to return to the Council Hall.
When Wang Yi heard Venerable Ning Jing’s sigh, she couldn’t help but smile and say, “What’s there to pity? Fellow Daoist Ning Jing, look at what this is.”
With that, Wang Yi took out more than ten spiritual cages the size of rice grains and casually threw them on the ground.
The spiritual cages expanded rapidly when they landed on the ground. In an instant, they turned into golden cages that were several meters tall.
At this moment, the already crowded Council Hall was now completely filled.
Of course, only those grandmasters were squeezed together. It did not affect Wang Yi and the others at all.
Furthermore, the prisoners in the spiritual cages were all Yang God experts who had completed three qualitative changes in their strength.
Not only were Wu La and Yuan Heng captured, but all the Yang God experts at their level were imprisoned by Wang Yi using his spiritual cage.
After all, killing beings of this level would not improve Wang Yi’s power much.
He might as well capture them and let some peak Rank-9 human grandmasters kill them. A Yang God expert of this level was definitely enough for the human grandmasters to advance to the Peak Realm.
Sure enough, they came in handy.
Venerable Ning Jing glanced at the golden cages in the Council Hall and suddenly felt her cheeks burning.
It was understandable that Wu Shuang and the others failed to capture the experts of the Yang God Race. After all, they were stuck at their current realm.
It wasn’t a big deal for them to kill the Yang God experts, but capturing them alive was a little difficult. There might even be casualties resulting from such an endeavor.
