Eternal Sacred King

Chapter 2213 - 2213 Ranking Superiority

2213 Ranking Superiority

By this point of the elimination round in the Nine Heavens, there were not many cultivators who were truly qualified to be ranked on the Earth Ranking.

Right now, the number one of the ranking, the reincarnated immortal Feng Yin, had already reached Level 5.

Immortal Tai Hua of Flying Immortal Sect followed closely behind and did not fall far behind.

There was not much danger in Level 5 and it was much calmer.

However, the space of Level 5 had an extremely terrifying gravity restriction. Even if a Grade 9 Earth Immortal used immortal arts and divine powers in this space, he could not jump too high, let alone fly in the air.

Peerless monster incarnates like Feng Yin and Tai Hua could naturally fly through the air for a short period of time.

However, that would consume too much Essence Qi and it was not worth it.

Therefore, even when the two of them ascended to this place, they chose to travel on foot and sped towards the Earth Ranking stele.

Although it was only an elimination round, it could indeed reflect the methods of the two reincarnated immortals.

Although the difference between the two of them was not great, they were far ahead of everyone else.

By the time the two of them arrived at the Earth Ranking stele, the third place had yet to ascend to Level 5!

When he saw that, Perfected Immortal Xie Ling nodded slightly and said, “Seems like there’s not much deviation in the prediction of the Earth Ranking this time round. The first and second place of the elimination round have already been determined.”

“Fellow Daoists Green Peak and White Sea, congratulations in advance,”

Xie Ling looked at Heaven Immortal Green Peak and Heaven Immortal White Sea with a smile and raised his glass from afar.

The two Heaven Immortals returned the greeting hurriedly.

Heaven Immortal Green Peak said, “Before Immortal Feng Yin reincarnated, he was my senior brother. He is merely participating in this Earth Ranking casually this time round without any pressure.

Although Heaven Immortal Green Peak sounded nonchalant, there was a hint of pride in his tone.

Heaven Immortal White Sea smiled as well. “If not for something else, Immortal Tai Hua wouldn’t have appeared to take part in the fight for the Earth Ranking this time round as well.”

Xu Xiaotian asked softly as he listened to the discussions of the important figures at the table, “Your Highness, the ranking of the elimination round is only temporary. What’s the use of being number one or two? Isn’t there still a ranking battle after the elimination round?”

“It’s very useful,”

Xie Qingcheng smiled and explained, “After the ranking of the top hundred Earth Immortals of the elimination round is over, the ranking battle will be held immediately without any gaps.”

Xu Xiaotian blinked in confusion.

Xie Qingcheng continued, “This means that the earlier one reaches Level 5 and the higher their ranking in the elimination round, the longer they will be able to rest and recover!”

“Ah!”

Xu Xiaotian reacted and came to a realization. “In other words, Feng Yin, Tai Hua and the others can rest immediately after arriving and recover their Essence Qi. Those that are ranked lower and arrive later will have less time to rest, it will definitely affect their ranking battle later on!”

“That’s right.”

Xie Qingcheng nodded and said, “That’s not the only advantage of being ranked at the top of the elimination round.”

“There are other advantages?”

Xu Xiaotian was surprised.

In his opinion, that fact alone was enough for the cultivators at the front to gain the upper hand in the ranking battle.

“The ranking battle is conducted in pairs.”

Xie Qingcheng said, “The 1st will be up against the 100th place, the 2nd will be against the 99th place and so on.”

“The benefit of this rule is that it can prevent two peerless paragons from meeting beforehand and resulting in an overly intense fight that results in another paragon being eliminated.”

That was not hard to understand.

For Feng Yin and Tai Hua, if they met in the first round of the ranking battle, one of them would definitely be eliminated—it was way too unfair for the Earth Ranking.

Xu Xiaotian was secretly speechless. “In other words, the lower the ranking of the elimination round, the stronger the opponents they will encounter in the ranking battle!”

“That’s right.”

Xie Qingcheng nodded and said, “If you’re ranked 100th or 99th in the elimination round, you can choose to admit defeat against Feng Yin and Tai Hua in the ranking battle.”

Xu Xiaotian said, “It’s no wonder why everyone wants to reach the Earth Ranking stele as soon as possible and be ranked higher in the elimination rounds. So, there’s such a huge difference in the order of ranking.”

Right then, Feng Yin stood in front of the Earth Ranking stele and hesitated for a moment before soaring into the air.

The stele was a hundred feet tall.

For many Earth Immortals, they could reach a height of a hundred feet in a single leap even without using immortal arts.

However, in Level 5, there was a gravity field. The higher one soared, the greater the gravity restriction.

In the end, it could be augmented by hundreds or even a thousand times of gravity!

For Earth Immortals, a height of a hundred feet was almost impossible!

Everyone in the square watched as Feng Yin flew through the air at an increasingly slower speed.

60 feet, 70 feet, 80 feet…

Feng Yin had already arrived at the height of the stele at 80 feet but he did not leave his name.

Right then, Tai Hua arrived before the stele as well.

He looked at the seal above his head and his eyes flashed. He channeled his spirit consciousness and circulated an immortal art, soaring into the air as well!

“Strange.”

Xu Xiaotian murmured softly, “Isn’t it enough to just carve your name on the Earth Ranking stele? Why are they flying so high?”

His heart skipped a beat as though he thought of something. “Your Highness, could it be that the higher your name is on the stele, the more useful it will be for the ranking battle?”

“You’re thinking too much,”

Xie Qingcheng smiled; even many women in the square paled in comparison.

Pausing for a moment, he said, “However, supreme monster incarnates like Feng Yin and Tai Hua are innately prideful. Since they want to leave their names on the stele, they will definitely not bow down to others.”

“There is naturally no way the two of them would allow others to casually leave names above theirs on the stele.”

The words etched on the stele were the personal symbols of everyone!

As reincarnated immortals, since Feng Yin and Tai Hua wanted to leave their names, they had to ascend to the peak and look down on other cultivators from above!

Xie Qingcheng looked at the two figures that were ascending slowly in front of the stele and said, “In every elimination round of the Nine Heavens, some paragons and monster incarnates will compete in secret here to determine the victor.”

“Typically, ascending to a height of 80 feet is already the limit.”

“However, judging from Feng Yin and Tai Hua’s methods, they’re probably stronger than 80 feet!”

By the time Feng Yin reached the height of 80 feet, his speed was already getting slower.

However, he did not stop and channeled his blood qi to its limits. The sound of a tsunami echoed from his body as he continued soaring through the air!

A moment later, he finally reached a height of 90 feet!

Feng Yin lowered his head slightly and glanced at Tai Hua who was closing in rapidly beneath him.

If he gave it his all, he could naturally rise a little more.

However, that would expose him too much and consume too much energy—there was no need for that.

He believed that Tai Hua would not give it his all to continue rising just for a moment of pride either.

At that thought, Feng Yin left his name on the stele at 90 feet.
