55: Chapter 55 Wang Teng is born, and I'm only ranked third?

Then he continued to tally his gains with peace of mind.

Heavenly Emperor Fist, a Low Grade Immortal-tier Cultivation Technique!

With a single punch, it directly shattered even Ye Chen's self-detonation that burned his Origin.

Moreover, at that time, he hadn't even activated the phenomenon of the Hongmeng Chaos Body.

In other words, the power of that punch was still far from its limit.

Primordial Immortal Pupil, Low Grade Immortal-tier!

It could discern Origin, see through illusions, and clearly perceive Karma and Luck from thousands of miles away.

Ye Chen served as free labor all the way.

It was all thanks to these eyes that he could lock onto all of Ye Chen's movements in advance.

Hongmeng Immortal Bone, Low Grade Immortal-tier!

Embedded within his bones, it elevated the strength of his Physical Body to another level.

Coupled with the Hongmeng Chaos Body, among those of the same Realm, almost no one could contend with him on the Physical Body level.

heavenly emperor cauldron, a Top-grade Extreme Dao Emperor Armament!

It suppressed all laws and excelled in both offense and defense.

Just placing this item there made it a moving divine mountain.

Whoever dared to defy would be directly suppressed!

Five trump cards.

All acquired.

Lin Yi reviewed them in his mind and nodded with satisfaction.

Regarding Cultivation.

He broke through from the Peak of Spirit Transformation to the Early Stage of the Venerable Realm, and the Hongmeng Chaos Body officially entered the Minor Achievement stage.

As for his true combat power...

Conservatively estimated, he could resolve opponents below the Middle Stage of the True God Realm with one punch.

He could also fight those in the Late Stage of the True God Realm.

Might need two punches!

As for the Peak of the True God Realm...

It depended on whether the opponent had an Emperor Armament.

If not, he could still fight.

Three punches for an instant kill!

"Not bad!"

Lin Yi opened his eyes and muttered to himself.

If those Prodigies outside, who struggled and fought desperately just to break through a minor Realm, were to hear this.

They would probably be so angered they'd spit blood on the spot.

But Lin Yi still felt it wasn't enough.

Because he knew very well.

The opponents he would Face next would be increasingly difficult.

Ye Chen and Xiao Fan were, frankly, just appetizers.

The real tough nuts were still queuing up behind them.

He rose from the stone platform and walked to the window.

The night wind blew in, carrying the unique crisp Spiritual Qi of the First Peak.

Lin Yi looked up at the northern sky.

The Primordial Immortal Pupil activated automatically.

A golden-purple light flashed deep within his pupils.

He saw it.

In the direction of the Northern Domain, a golden river of Luck was surging.

That river was incredibly vast, several times more concentrated than the combined Luck of Ye Chen and Xiao Fan.

The source of the river pointed to a name he was already familiar with.

Wang Teng.

The Imperial Son of the Imperial Clan Wang Family in the Northern Domain.

Innate Emperor-Bearing Dao Body.

Legacy Inheritor of an Ancient Great Emperor.

In the original plot, this fellow was much harder to deal with than Ye Chen.

Ye Chen was at most a treasure-hunting tool, with a limited strength.

Wang Teng was different.

His Physique was naturally capable of inheriting the Dao Markings of an Ancient Great Emperor.

He didn't need to comprehend the Dao from scratch, he could quickly grasp a portion of a Great Emperor's Legacy.

In short, others had to Cultivate step by step.

He directly skipped the first ninety-nine steps and picked things up from the finish line.

Moreover, this person held himself in extremely high regard.

Born into an Imperial Clan, his Physique naturally carried Imperial Might, causing Cultivators of the same Realm to instinctively want to kneel before him.

In the Northern Domain, he was a little overlord.

Everyone had to give him Face.

Yet, this little overlord had also taken an interest in Chu Wanqing.

Lin Yi retracted his gaze, a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth.

He coveted Chu Wanqing's Innate Emperor Phoenix Holy Body, wanting to use her as a cauldron to aid his own Dao certification.

He also secretly colluded with Chu Ningshuang, that fake Imperial Daughter of the Chu family, attempting to annex the Chu family.

His methods were truly unsightly.

"Wang Teng..."

Lin Yi softly uttered the name.

There was no particular emotion.

He simply remembered the name of his prey.

Just then.

Above the firmament, the rankings on the three thousand extreme dao list were changing.

A name rapidly climbed up from the bottom of the list.

Extremely fast.

Tenth... Eighth... Fifth... Fourth...

Finally, it stopped at the third position.

Wang Teng.

Imperial Clan Wang Family of the Northern Domain.

Innate Emperor-Bearing Dao Body.

Overall ranking, third among the current generation in the Three Thousand Realms.

Lin Yi looked at the name, not even an eyebrow twitching.

Third?

Still two spots away from first.

What's the rush?

But he knew Wang Teng himself probably wouldn't think that way.

Given that kind of person's character.

Seeing two names above his, his first reaction would definitely not be "I need to work harder."

But rather, "Why?"

Sure enough.

At the same moment Lin Yi saw the sky screen.

Northern Domain.

Within the ancestral land of the Imperial Clan Wang Family.

Deep inside a magnificent golden palace.

A young man dressed in a black robe with gold trim slowly opened his eyes.

His Face was extremely handsome, his features sculpted as if by knife and axe, with distinct contours.

But his eyes were filled with arrogance.

That arrogance wasn't feigned.

It grew from his very bones.

It was the demeanor of someone who had been pampered by thousands, who had never experienced a single setback from childhood.

"Third?"

He looked at the three thousand extreme dao list suspended before him, his voice calm.

But his tone dropped by half a note.

"There are actually two people ranked above me?"

An old servant beside him bowed and said, "Young Lord, the one ranked first is Saint Lin Yi of Heavenly Profound Holy Land in the Desolate Domain, and the one ranked second is..."

"No need to say more."

Wang Teng raised his hand, interrupting the old servant.

He stood up, and golden Imperial Might naturally emanated from his body surface.

The Spiritual Qi in the hall trembled because of it.

"A Saint from the Desolate Domain, dares to rank above this Young Lord?"

He stood with his hands behind his back, a sneer curling at the corner of his mouth.

"He's only first because he got lucky."

"Once this Young Lord retrieves the complete Legacy of the Ancient Desolate Emperor."

"There will only be one name on this three thousand extreme dao list!"

"That will be me, Wang Teng!"

He strode to the palace gate and pushed open the heavy golden door.

Outside, endless stars spread across the sky of the Northern Domain.

Wang Teng looked up at the south.

The direction of the Desolate Domain.

"Lin Yi."

He uttered the name, without much importance in his tone.

He merely regarded him as an obstacle that would eventually be crushed.

"And that Chu Wanqing..."

When he spoke this name, his eyes changed.

A sense of possessiveness, determined to obtain, was added.

"Innate Emperor Phoenix Holy Body!"

"The only cauldron in the entire Three Thousand Dao Domains that can form a Dao co-existence with my Emperor-Bearing Dao Body!"

"I, Wang Teng, will have her!"

He turned to Face the old servant.

"Send word to Chu Ningshuang."

"Tell her I can help her secure her position as the Imperial Daughter of the Chu family."

"But on one condition—Chu Wanqing must belong to me!"

The old servant quickly bowed and said, "Yes, Young Lord! This old servant will arrange it immediately!"

Wang Teng waved his hand, and the old servant withdrew.

He looked back at the southern night sky, golden Imperial Might slowly circulating around him.

"I sense it, the Ancient Desolate Emperor's Secret Realm is about to appear!"

"At that time, Prodigies of the same generation from all heavens will gather."

"This Young Lord wants to see."

"Just how capable is that so-called top ranker!"
