Chapter 177 - Ascending Heaven, Shocking The Realm! (2/2)

When Xian Li saw who stepped forward, his arrogant gaze immediately dropped several thousand notches and turned immediately respectful. ”Sir Yan Zaizen, I do dare. I just hope…” his words trailed off purposefully. Yan Zaizen was chuckling inwardly.

”You don't have to worry.” Yan Zaizen waved his hand and a small, golden bottle filled with liquid appeared. In it was 73 drops of heavenly law liquid. ”How about this, I'll let everyone make a bet with me. If my choice loses to yours, I'll match your bet. If I win, it's mine. I'll even refrain from picking someone above a heavenly-tier force.”

He looked towards the crowd and they were shocked, but many looked at the bottle with greed. A person stepped up, it was a beautiful woman at the peak-True Essence Realm. ”One drop.” She took out an even smaller bottle that contained one drop of liquid.

Before long, he had many, many takers. A person asked, ”What if you run out of liquid Sir Yan Zaizen?” Yan Zaizen smiled, ”Depending on how much I owe, I'll owe that person a favor.”

”One hundred drops of heavenly liquid.” An old man near the Xiantu Emperor declared. Everyone's eyes drew to the old man and everyone was shocked. He was Mo, the second-floor Heavenly Genesis expert that serves the emperor only.

Yan Zaizen smiled at this, nodding in acceptance. ”Any others?” At that moment, everyone realized the circumstances and felt this was an important time, not to mention Yan Zaizen was at a disadvantage. If he couldn't pick any from heavenly-tier forces, they had a massive advantage. Many believed he loved to recklessly gamble, and thus decided to take this opportunity.

Before long, there was already over five hundred drops against him. ”Then, who will be chosen?” He asked curiously.

”If I may speak, Sir Yan Zaizen, you said we could pick anyone. What if two or more people pick the same person or you pick the person we'll pick?” Xian Li asked, his eyes shone with a sly glint.

”It's a bet against me, not against others. You can pick whoever you want, even the same. You can also pick first. As long as I lose, I lose.” These words caused many eyes to light up in succession. Many of those lights contained deep greed and contempt.

”Xiantu Yu,” one person who bet two drops called out.

”Xiantu Yu,” another called out, he bet five drops.

”Xiantu Yu,” even Xian Li called out that name, betting eleven drops.

Everyone, literally EVERYONE, who bet called out that one name.

Yan Zaizen was curious about who that was, but he simply kept his casual expression with a slight smile. ”I see. I pick Shin Xuanji.” Yan Zaizen calmly declared.

Who?

This name caused many to be confused. However, Yan Zaizen pointed towards a boy dressed in a blood-crimson outfit and an Oni mask. Then, he smiled. He knew that a first-floor Heavenly shrine required one hundred drops for each concept embedded within, outside of materials for the physical structure itself which were far easier to obtain.

As for these drops, typically, they would take a century for a first-floor Heavenly Genesis cultivator to refine one without support. With an average lifespan of one hundred and fifty thousand years, this wasn't much. However a hundred years was still a hundred years.

He was making preparation for his future ascension. Not to mention, Pinaka had already given her guarantee towards Shin Xuanji. Out of everyone there, not a single person could match him in terms of potential. After all, the Manifestation level was typically something even peak-True Essence experts after tens of thousands had trouble reaching.

Four hours later.

”Impossible! Could he be cheating?”

”Who is this boy?! He puts the Xiantu Yu, the direct descendant of the Xiantu Emperor so far behind?!”

”Holy...how can he be so young yet so…”

SHIN XUANJI: EXIT AT 30th STEP!!

With a single trial, a single step, he eclipsed all others! As the world was stunned, Yan Zaizen had a dense smirk of satisfaction on his face. With the greediest smile imaginable, he chuckled loudly.

”Time to pay up!”
