Eternal Sacred King

Chapter 2487 - 2487 Pushover



2487 Pushover

After bidding farewell to Mo Qing, Su Zimo returned to his cave abode and prepared to cultivate in seclusion once more.

There was still a thousand years to go before the Divine Firmament Immortal Meet.

Under normal circumstances, during this period of time, most high-level Heaven Immortals would choose to head out to train and look for people to fight. They would try their best to squeeze into the Heaven Ranking Prediction.

As for Su Zimo, he was already ranked 17 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction. Even if he did not take part in other fights, he was already qualified to fight for the ranking of the Heaven Ranking at the Divine Firmament Immortal Meet.

Therefore, he intended to seize the remaining thousand years to cultivate and strive to advance another realm.

The Sect Master of the Academy was right. At the realm of a Grade 6 Heaven Immortal, if he did not use the Green Lotus bloodline, he had almost no chance of winning against Yun Ting.

All these years, he had been improving continuously and obtained many opportunities. However, Yun Ting did not stagnate as well!

Just by looking at the information about Yun Ting on the Heaven Ranking Prediction, it was clear that the opportunities and encounters that Yun Ting had obtained over the years were no less than his!

Even if he could cultivate to become a Grade 7 Heaven Immortal, he should only be on par with Yun Ting.

Against an opponent like Yun Ting, even if they were only a single cultivation realm apart, the difference would be immense in battle.

Furthermore, there was a difference of three cultivation realms between them right now.

Su Zimo cultivated in seclusion in his cave abode and did not see outsiders.

A few days later, Tao Yao returned to the cave abode and continued to take care of all the trivial matters with Liu Ping.

For the past half a year, many Heaven Immortal experts from outside the academy came to challenge Su Zimo.

Among them, there was no lack of experts who were in the top 20 of the Heaven Ranking Prediction!

The fastest way to enter the Heaven Ranking Prediction or raise one’s ranking was naturally to challenge opponents on the Heaven Ranking Prediction.

As for Su Zimo, he was ranked 17 on the Heaven Ranking Prediction.

However, his cultivation realm was only at the Level 6 Heaven Essence realm.

Compared to the top Heaven Immortals, there was a difference of three cultivation realms!

This was an irreparable difference in the eyes of many Heaven Immortal experts.

Furthermore, there were way too few battle records for Su Zimo on the Heaven Ranking Prediction—there were only two.

Although the impact of the battle in Absolute Thunder City was not small, the fact that there were too few battle records caused many Heaven Immortals to assume that Su Zimo was merely all pretense and not as strong as the rumors said.

Furthermore, in the eyes of everyone, Su Zimo’s ranking was extremely exaggerated!

The evaluation given by the Divine Firmament Palace had already stated that Su Zimo’s strength could only be ranked in the 60s and 70s at most.

The reason why he could be ranked in the top 20 was because he had once avoided an assassination attempt by Jue Wuying.

However, that could only mean that although Su Zimo’s escape skills were decent, they could not be reflected in his combat strength.

The details of the fight between Su Zimo and Fang Qingyun within Heaven and Earth Academy was not known to outsiders due to the academy’s prohibition.

Many people only knew that Fang Qingyun was dead, but they did not know that he died in Su Zimo’s hands!

Combined with many factors, many Heaven Immortal experts felt that Su Zimo was a pushover that was relatively easy to challenge on the Heaven Ranking Prediction.

For the past half a year, Su Zimo had been in seclusion and refused to fight. No matter how everyone provoked him outside, he was indifferent and ignored them.

That reaction confirmed everyone’s guess. Instead of decreasing, the number of Heaven Immortal experts challenging them increased.

Although there were benefits to entering the Heaven Ranking Prediction in advance and becoming famous, one would have to endure immense pressure as well!

Su Zimo focused wholeheartedly on cultivating and wanted to advance further, unwilling to bother with these challengers.

As for Tao Yao and Liu Ping, they received Su Zimo’s instructions and naturally blocked all the challengers who came knocking.

In the blink of an eye, a year passed.

“That’s the 677th challenger rejected, right?”

“He should be the 678th!”

After Liu Ping and Tao Yao rejected another challenger, they discussed softly in the cave abode.

Liu Ping said, “Senior brother’s constant avoidance of battle has a certain impact on his ranking on the Heaven Ranking Prediction.”

If someone came knocking for a challenge and Su Zimo avoided it, the Divine Firmament Palace’s evaluation of him would naturally decrease.

Tao Yao nodded. “I noticed it too. Young Master, you’ve dropped a few spots on the Heaven Ranking Prediction.”

Liu Ping raised his fist. “In my opinion, senior brother, you should pick a tough nut to crack among these challengers and teach him a lesson for everyone to see!”

“It’ll save this group of people the trouble of coming to challenge you everyday. They’re so annoying!”

Right then, another figure descended outside the cave abode.

Through an image crystal in the cave abode, Tao Yao could clearly see the situation outside.

When he saw who it was, Tao Yao could not help but exclaim, “This cultivator is really beautiful.”

“It’s useless even if she’s beautiful. Just send her away casually,” Liu Ping said casually without even looking.

Tao Yao nodded and sent a voice transmission to the outside of the cave abode, “Fellow Daoist, I’m sorry. Our Young Master is in seclusion cultivation and won’t fight you. Please head back.”

“I’m Xie Qingcheng. I’m not here to challenge Brother Su.”

The person smiled gently. “I’m only here to visit him.”

Liu Ping pouted. “Half of the challengers said that they were merely here to visit.”

The moment he said that, his expression changed and he reacted.

“Xie Qingcheng?”

Liu Ping hurried to the image crystal and took a look. “It’s indeed him.”

Back in the capital of the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom, Liu Ping had seen this Prince Qingcheng.

Although this person was a man, he was more beautiful and handsome than most women. Liu Ping had a deep impression of him.

Furthermore, Princess Scarlet Rainbow had a good relationship with this person.

A year ago, the first person to discover the location of Feng Ziyi and Perfected Immortal Burial Night was also Prince Qingcheng.

“Let’s ask senior brother.”

Liu Ping did not dare to make the decision on his own and pulled Tao Yao towards Su Zimo’s cultivation chamber.

When Su Zimo heard that Xie Qingcheng had arrived, he did not hesitate and stood up to welcome Xie Qingcheng personally outside the cave abode.

Although the two of them had not interacted much previously, he had always remembered how Xie Qingcheng had helped him a couple of times.

Although this prince of the Yan Yang Immortal Kingdom was only an idle prince without any power or influence, Su Zimo had a good impression of him.

The two of them sat down and Tao Yao served two steaming cups of tea with a fragrance.

Xie Qingcheng smiled. “Brother Su, the battle at Absolute Thunder City a year ago shocked the entire Divine Firmament. I was shocked when I heard about it as well.”

“It’s nothing.”

Su Zimo said, “Yuan Zuo has hunted me down many times. I had to return the favor.”

“Your single return killed him and destroyed Absolute Thunder City, Brother Su.”

Xie Qingcheng shook his head and chuckled.

Pausing for a moment, he said, “I heard that you haven’t had peace for the past year with endless challengers knocking on your door?”

“Indeed, there were many challengers. However, I ignored them the entire time.” Su Zimo smiled and was not bothered.

There were not many people in the same cultivation realm who could make him view them as opponents.

He could not even be bothered to take a look at the rest!

Su Zimo thought of the two of them and asked, “By the way, is Xu Shi and his son, Xu Xiaotian, still with you? How are they doing?”

“Pretty good.”

Xie Qingcheng said, “However, Xu Shi’s talent is limited and he might not be able to become a Heaven Immortal in the future. Xu Xiaotian’s talent is not bad and has potential.”

The two of them chatted for a while more. Although Xie Qingcheng looked relaxed and chatted merrily with Su Zimo, he seemed to be troubled.
