Chapter 369: I’ll Deal with Him
Translator: Radiant Translations Editor: Radiant Translations
Vast and boundless—these were the two words that best describes the Deity World.
Countless planets decorated the starry sky, and somewhere within that sky, a silvery-masked man suddenly appeared. He was none other than the same Elder You Ping who had just been forced out of the material world.
Did I just almost die in a little mortal world? Elder You Ping’s lingering fear surged all at once. He did not dare believe the previous events to be real. Even with the Star Pagoda suppressing me, and its world energy helping Dong Bo Xue Ying, he was still clearly not even a Deity! He should not have grasped hold of a grade two Deity Heart yet, which means there was still a huge gap between my realm and his. He should not have been in a position to nearly kill me.
He had even displayed his secret skill blade technique to intercept the attack. In fact, not only did his blade block the attack, his top grade Deity armor had shaved off even more of the impact. Despite this, the result was that he still almost died in a single strike.
I feel like his spear technique might not be any weaker than my blade technique, Elder You Ping thought. That was despite his secret skill having been created on the foundation of a grade two Deity Heart. As for Xue Ying’s spear technique…he had created it using a foundation of just the peak of the stage three realm, yet their secret skills were comparable. Clearly, Xue Ying was the more formidable one in terms of creating secret skills.
The vast Deity world, the Dark Abyss, and the material world truly contain many formidable Transcendents. Elder You Ping sighed. It’s no wonder that my current innate talent is not quite enough to attract any powerful existences into accepting me as their disciple.
With the exception of the sacred master, Crimson Dust, back when he was willing to accept most Transcendents as disciples…most powerful existences were, in reality, too high and mighty and would at most accept three to five personal disciples! Even those who would accept eighteen inner disciples could be considered generous.
Powerful existences were very picky when it came to choosing disciples.
After all…the less talented would at most become stage one or two World Deities, which was useless to the powerful existences themselves.
That was why the sacred master, Crimson Dust, had a truly good reputation with those of lower status. It was quite a pity that he ended up dying.
I have to continue cultivating. There are, indeed, many people with greater talent than I have. Elder You Ping suffered from a huge mental impact. He waved his hand to take out his Battleship B9 and then entered it. Even though I could not get the 1.5 million Deity crystals, I’m quite fortunate to have earned this Battleship B9. Not that great of a loss, I would say.
Hu.
This battleship soon tunneled through a pitch black crack in the vast starry sky, disappearing from its original location.
Elder You Ping might have signed an agreement with the Sorcerer God, but that did not mean he would fight to the death. Such an agreement still favored him most. After all, You Ping could have actually become a Deity a hundred years ago, yet he had delayed it for the sake of the war. The Sorcerer God had sent the Battleship B9 from the beginning so as to coerce him to wait for that hundred years. Even if he was not needed in battle, the battleship would have still been handed to him for free!
The agreement stated that should he lose after going out to fight, he would not receive any other benefits, but if he won, he would get an additional 1.5 million Deity crystals!
No matter if he was to lose or win, Elder You Ping would clearly not be losing out. There was no way he would place his life on a platter and hand it to the Sorcerer God. After all, they were merely business partners in this venture.

In the Xia Clan world.
With the towering Star Pagoda illuminating the desert, Xue Ying simply stood there thoroughly searching his surroundings.
Impossible. With the Star Pagoda illuminating this isolated world, You Ping should not have been able to avoid detection. Unless… Xue Ying thought for a moment before arriving at a certain suspicion. Has he escaped to the Deity world?
Xue Ying could not think of any other possibilities; this was the only one.
Anyone who became Deity in the mortal world would suffer from the repulsion of the entire material world. If they followed the feeling of repulsion, they could easily leave for the Deity world! Of course, one could still delay for as many as ten thousand years before being forcibly sent off by the mortal world.
I used my finishing move, yet he still escaped? Xue Ying pondered. It’s still alright though. Having left, he will at least not be an obstacle anymore. This You Ping was still quite close to me in terms of combat power. Only with the help of the Star Pagoda could I suppress him.
With the aid of the Star Pagoda…
Xue Ying’s overall combat power increased by 50%, while Elder You Ping’s combat power was suppressed by 50%! Together, they added up to three times the difference.
Taking into account Xue Ying’s already superior strength and You Ping’s superior speed, with the added difference in strength increased by three times, he had been able to explode with such a formidable attack! Naturally, You Ping was very formidable in terms of his speed, making it so Xue Ying could hardly ward him off, but the Time Immemorial body allowed him to directly take his attacks.
