Chapter 1375 - Four Grades of Immortal Platform

Chen Fan easily entered the top five, thanks to Huang Wuji’s surrender. It was like he had taken a free ride.

Meanwhile, the four other battlefields were heating up.

Si Kong clashed with Lu Hechuan, Ye Kuang battled Wan Dong, Mo Xue squared off against Li Feng, and Chu Kui fought Nangong Li.

These people had overtaken hundreds of thousands of people to reach the top ten, and that spoke volumes about their might. Under the immortal realm, they were the strongest.

The four battles were all incredibly spectacular, fierce battles between experts.

Even Si Kong, Ye Kuang, and Mo Xue, who had won relatively easily previously, met tough opponents and couldn’t win their fights quickly.

Boom, boom, boom!

The spatial arenas rang with thunderous blows—fierce, hot-blooded exchanges brimming with violent beauty. Every strike made the crowd gasp, their hearts rising and falling with the momentum.

Chen Fan watched closely, unable to deny that at this level—the true top ten—each fighter stood leagues above those who came before. B

Huang Wuji stood next to Chen Fan, also watching the intense battles. He couldn’t help but say emotionally, “Impressive. All eight of them are stronger than I am. Even at my peak, I wouldn’t stand a chance against any of them.”

On the Tianwu Continent, he was an apex, monstrous existence. At the same cultivation level, he was a hegemon, capable of fighting above his level. But in the Heavenly Realm, he couldn’t even defeat many at the same cultivation level. As for fighting above his level...

Watching Si Kong and the others’ battles, Huang Wuji admitted the painful truth: though they were all at peak Void Immortal level, he lagged by more than a step.

If the peak Void Immortal level were divided into classes, people like Si Kong would definitely be first-class, while Huang Wuji, surpassing second-class yet still shy of first, hovered in between. Half a class might seem a small difference, yet in terms of strength, the gap was enormous.

Chen Fan smiled and said, “No need to underestimate yourself, Senior Brother. Their environment and foundation far surpass ours; yet in less than five years, we’ve caught up. Surpassing them is only a matter of time.”

That was the truth.

In the Heavenly Realm, whether it was the cultivation environment or resources, everything was incomparably superior, vastly greater than the so-called barren lower realms. It was no wonder that Heavenly Realm disciples mocked those from below as peasants and bumpkins.

Still, Chen Fan and his sibling disciples had nearly closed the gap in under five years

That alone proved that their talent eclipsed even the likes of Si Kong and the others. Given enough time and space, overtaking them was inevitable.

“That’s true.” Huang Wuji nodded and continued, “This time, everyone in the top ten will be awarded an Immortal Breakthrough Pill. Even though I can’t go to the Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm, I should be able to reach the immortal realm quickly with the pill.”

The pill was no guarantee. It merely increased one’s chances of success when breaking through to the Immortal Platform realm. But Huang Wuji’s confidence in himself was unshaken.

As time passed, the second person to enter the top five finally emerged: Mo Xue, not Si Kong or Ye Kuang.

As the owner of the third Man-character secret realm, she was publicly recognized as the third strongest among the low-class disciples. Her opponent, Li Feng, had been an unknown before the martial meet. However, in this battle, he had erupted like a dark horse, displaying a strength that shocked everyone present.

Ultimately, he was still a tad inferior to Mo Xue and lost, his face full of indignity.

Some more time passed, and the owner of the first Man-character secret realm, Si Kong, also successfully defeated his opponent, Lu Hechuan, and became the third person to advance into the top five.

Although his fight lasted longer than Mo Xue’s, Si Kong was by no means weaker than her. After all, Lu Hechuan was the owner of the fifth Man-character secret realm and was a veteran expert among the low-class disciples.

Si Kong’s victory over an opponent of equal standing only highlighted his overwhelming strength. He didn’t get the first Man-character secret realm due to luck or a backdoor method—it was earned through strength.

The fourth person to make it through to the top five was Ye Kuang. As the owner of the second Man-character secret realm, the other disciples saw him as the second strongest.

His opponent, however, was no pushover. Wan Dong was the master of the fourth secret realm. It was a true clash of titans: second strongest against fourth, a needle against an awl.

Although Ye Kuang ultimately won against Wan Dong, it was a grueling victory. He emerged battered and bloodied, forced to gulp down handfuls of recovery elixirs the moment he stepped out of the battlefield. Fortunately, as an executive member of the Hua Alliance, he had no shortage of such resources.

By now, only one battlefield remained, where Nangong Li and Chu Kui were still locked in combat. Neither owned a top ten secret realm. Although they had a little fame among the low-class disciples, it was insignificant when compared to influential figures like Si Kong and the others.

But this time, for the sake of the Immortal Breakthrough Pill and a spot in the Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm, they had revealed their true strengths. That forced the crowd to reevaluate them as dark horses who had clawed their way into the top ten.

The two were evenly matched, their strengths so close that it was impossible to decide a victor in the short term. Their clash was even more ferocious than the battle between Huang Wuji and Gao Hu.

Winning meant entering the top five and getting a chance to compete for a spot in the Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm.

With their foundations and strength, receiving the Immortal Breakthrough Pill alone would already give them a ninety percent chance of advancing into the Immortal Platform realm. Yet the Ancient Realm promised even more. It was said to contain divine objects capable of refining the immortal platform itself, raising its quality to new heights.

When Void Immortals advanced into the Immortal Platform realm, they absorbed the laws of heaven and earth into their bodies to form their immortal platforms. The grade of the platform depended on the depth of their comprehension, and was divided into four tiers: ordinary-grade, king-grade, emperor-grade, and sage-grade.

Ordinary-grade was when an immortal platform had three or more cracks. This was the lowest level.

The vast majority of Immortal Platform experts fell in this category. At best, they could reach the peak of the Immortal Platform realm, with only a thirty to forty percent chance of breaking through to Immortal King.

A king-grade immortal platform had only two cracks. Cultivators at this level could almost certainly ascend to Immortal King and held a thirty to forty percent chance of becoming an Immortal Emperor.

Emperor-grade immortal platforms had only one crack. Pretty much all of those with such a level of immortal platform could become an Immortal Emperor realm behemoth in the future, assuming they avoided premature death. They even had the possibility of pushing further into the Sage realm.

As for sage-grade immortal platforms, they had no cracks at all and could display a hundred percent of the immortal platform’s powers. Reaching Immortal King or Immortal Emperor was assured, while casting such a perfect platform marked one as destined for the Sage realm itself.
