Chapter 1660: Treasure Selection in the Starry Sky

Finally, the fighting grew sparser, and each spirit circle found its owner.

However, most of those who obtained spirit circles were at the third or second level of the Divine Lord realm; very few were at the first level.

After being scared off by Ye Yuan, Jing Lu also found a scapegoat and forcibly occupied a spirit circle.

Once a hundred breaths had passed, each spirit circle emitted a wisp of ethereal energy.

Suddenly, Ye Yuan felt a strand of his divine sense involuntarily leave his body and fly toward the Zhengu Heavenly Gate.

Swish, swish, swish...

Beams of light shot out from their bodies and flew into the Zhengu Heavenly Gate.

Those martial artists who had failed to seize a spirit circle could only watch with envy as these people entered to seek treasures.

Ye Yuan felt a blur before his eyes and then entered a vast starry sky.

"Is this the legendary Zhengu Starry Sky? Truly miraculous!"

"Each star represents a treasure; the brighter the star, the more powerful the treasure!"

"What are we waiting for? Go!"

...

With treasures before them, the martial artists could no longer remain calm and all flew toward the stars.

They looked down on the slightly dimmer stars and headed straight for the brightest ones.

But halfway through, they could no longer advance an inch.

"Heh, overestimating themselves! How could truly powerful inheritances be obtained by ordinary people?" Wuchen said disdainfully.

The Soul-Calming Pearl, fused with Ye Yuan's divine sense, was also brought in.

Ye Yuan said, "I wonder how far I can go!"

Wuchen stroked his beard and laughed, "Hehe, with me here, you'll naturally get the best!"

Ye Yuan couldn't help but smile at this.

This inheritance was said to be left by a True God, but the Soul-Calming Pearl was a peak Heavenly Lord spiritual treasure; Wuchen didn't take this place seriously at all.

"The means of a True God are indeed extraordinary, able to create such a space of consciousness! I just wonder what the strongest inheritance here is," Ye Yuan said.

"The strongest inheritance is not here, but deep in the starry sky!" Wuchen said.

"Tianping, let's go join the fun." Ye Yuan said to Ning Tianping with a smile.

"Hehe, sure! I also want to see where my potential lies!" Ning Tianping laughed.

With that, the two leaped up and headed into the vast starry sky.

"Damn it, just a little more! Move for me!"

A martial artist at the second level of the Divine Lord realm strained until his face turned red, but his body couldn't advance half a step.

And he was only a dozen zhang away from a very bright star.

Just then, two figures passed by him lightly and leisurely, forming a stark contrast.

Seeing that the star was very bright, Ning Tianping couldn't resist reaching out and grabbing it.

The martial artist's eyes widened, and he roared, "That's mine! Don't you dare take it!"

Ning Tianping said with a playful look, "Does it have your name on it?"

The man was momentarily speechless, but intense unwillingness surged within him.

Comparing people really drives one to despair!

In this starry sky, the deeper one went, the higher the talent required.

He had used all his strength to get here, but the others did it as if playing.

Ning Tianping carefully sensed it, then frowned slightly and said, "Sir, this is a fifth-grade divine technique. It seems pretty good."

The martial artist trembled, and the unwillingness in his eyes grew even stronger.

Unexpectedly, Ye Yuan said indifferently, "It's just a fifth-grade divine technique. We can only take one thing out of here. Throw it away."

"Oh!" Ning Tianping obediently tossed it away, and the star returned to its original place.

The martial artist was utterly stunned by their conversation. How could they be so casual?

His intense unwillingness turned into astonishment.

They looked down on a fifth-grade divine technique?

After all, a fifth-grade divine technique could cost ten to twenty billion!

The martial artist was on the verge of tears, thinking, "You can't toy with people like this. It would have been better if you'd just taken it."

This was too demoralizing!

Ye Yuan and Ning Tianping didn't stop at all and left directly.

Meanwhile, that martial artist was still struggling desperately to reach that fifth-grade divine technique.

But no matter how hard he tried, he was always just a little short.

Among the hundreds of martial artists, each had their own goal, but only a handful could reach a fifth-grade technique.

As for the deeper parts, they couldn't reach them at all.

"Haha... A peak fifth-grade technique, the 'Red Light Nine Bright Divine Art'! With this technique, I can cultivate all the way to the peak of the Heavenly God realm!"

A voice suddenly shouted loudly in the starry sky, filled with excitement.

Not far away, some martial artists cast envious glances.

"As expected of a genius said to be certain to enter the Heavenly God realm, he actually obtained a peak fifth-grade technique!"

"Alas, the gap between people is too great!"

"Barring accidents, the technique Jing Lu obtained is probably the best this time, right?"

...

Hearing the praise from the crowd, Jing Lu was extremely proud.

Because in this starry sky, he had walked at the forefront.

Clearly, his talent was the strongest!

The most顶尖 techniques in Quyang Imperial City could only allow one to cultivate to the third level of the Heavenly God realm.

So, without special encounters, Jing Lu's final realm would also stop there.

But now, it was different!

This 'Red Light Nine Bright Divine Art' was enough to support his cultivation to the peak of the ninth level of the Heavenly God realm, just one step away from the True God realm!

Jing Lu believed that with his talent, he could definitely cultivate to the ninth level of the Heavenly God realm.

Just then, two figures walked over, very relaxed and at ease.

Under the amazed gazes of the crowd, Ye Yuan and Ning Tianping strolled over and soon arrived beside Jing Lu.

Ning Tianping glanced at Jing Lu and said disdainfully, "Just a mere fifth-grade divine technique, and you're this excited? How pathetic!"

Ning Tianping had no goodwill toward Jing Lu at all.

Seeing him show off, he couldn't help but taunt him.

Seeing these two, Jing Lu's joy instantly vanished.

Judging by their appearance, they still had strength to spare.

As for him, he could no longer move forward.

"Hmph! What are you so smug about? The further you go, the greater the resistance! I don't believe you can advance much further!" Jing Lu sneered.

"Oh? Is that so? Then let's wait and see!" Ning Tianping sneered back.

Ye Yuan glanced at Jing Lu indifferently and said, "Let's go. He's just a frog at the bottom of a well; no need to mind him."

With that, Ye Yuan led Ning Tianping onward, leaving Jing Lu with a dark face.

Sure enough, the resistance ahead grew stronger, and before long, Ning Tianping could no longer advance.

The immense resistance made it impossible for him to move an inch.

"Sir, I... I can't go any further!" Ning Tianping said.

However, he showed no sign of unwillingness.

Ning Tianping knew that being able to come this far was entirely due to the sir's help.

With his original talent, he probably wouldn't even match Jing Lu.

Ye Yuan looked around and nodded, "Alright, stay here. I'll go ahead and take a look."
