980 All Three Parties Hur

Wei Longxing's eyes shone with golden light as he stared at Deity Yuan Hong. "Your era has long passed and I will surpass you to create an even more brilliant era."

"Really? Then let me see just how powerful you are." Deity Yuan Hong looked very calm. Extending his arm, he called, "Come, bones."

Come, bones.

Come, bones…

The echoes spread throughout the nine levels of the altar. A ninth level Half-Saint skeleton soon squeezed out from the cracks of the various bones and became one with the apparition.

Wei Longxing and Deity Yuan Hong were both top figures, so their fight was very intense. They shook the sky, but they couldn't produce a victor and loser.

"When Deity Yuan Hong was alive, he was extremely powerful. He's above average among the various Deities."

"If Wei Longxing can fight Deity Yuan Hong in the same plane, then his combat ability must be crazy."

…

Anyone who could become the Deity of the Blood God Sect was a one-in-a-million talent. Even the below average Deities had risen up from thousands upon thousands of Monks. They'd been the pride of their generation and weren't just anyone.

Deity Yuan Hong was one of the stronger ones of the various Deities. This naturally made him even more terrifying.

The other Deity candidates all began their second test too.

Other than Wei Longxing, Hai Lingyin, Sun Dadi, and Huo Xin, the other candidates were clear that it wasn't likely for them to be chosen. Thus, they didn't choose to challenge the stronger Deities. They all chose the weakest one.

As long as they defeated a Deity in the same plane, this would prove their abilities. In the future, their status in the sect would rise. They could receive more cultivation resources.

Bai Yu's expression turned sinister and cold. Gu Linfeng, Wei Longxing, Hai Lingyin, Sun Dadi, and Huo Xin will definitely challenge the stronger Deities for the position, he thought. They might all fail in the end. In that case, I'll have a chance to become the new Deity.

He chose a weaker Deity and challenged it. However, the apparition sent Bai Yu to the ground with only five attacks. Blood flowed out of his mouth and more than half of his bones were broken. Even the weakest Deity far surpassed Bai Yu when fighting in the same plane.

There were nine candidates on the first level of the Blood God Altar. All of them failed the second test. Among them, even the strongest candidate only fended off 17 strikes. The weakest one was killed instantly by the Deity's apparition.

Yes.

Killed instantly.

Deaths and injuries happened in the Deity battle. It was unavoidable. The candidates who couldn't surrender in time could very possibly be killed by the Deity apparitions and become part of the Blood God Altar.

Of course, the probability of death was very little. After all, only the top fighters could become candidates and stand on the altar. It wasn't that hard to take one or two hits from the Deity apparition.

Unless they didn't know their own strength, it basically wasn't life-threatening.

"The Deities are too strong. Even the weakest one is leagues away from me." Bai Yu lay on the ground without feeling too sad. Losing to a Deity wasn't embarrassing.

Seeing the nine candidates all fail at once, the audience was even clearer about how powerful Wei Longxing was.

"Wei Longxing and Deity Yuan Hong had already battled for more than 300 strikes without anyone losing. If Bai Yu or Yan Kongming tried, Deity Yuan Hong would kill them with one strike."

"Gu Linfeng may have reached the sixth level of the Blood God Altar, but his combat ability can't be higher than Senior Uncle Wei," one of Wei Longxing's Junior Nephews said with disdain.

One must have both strong combat ability and potential to become the Deity. If one had strong potential but weak combat ability, they would still be defeated.

Clearly, Wei Longxing wanted to beat Gu Linfeng in the aspect of combat ability and increase his chances.

In addition to Wei Longxing, Hai Lingyin, Huo Xin, and Sun Dadi all began their second test.

Hai Lingyin also chose an above average Deity. This one was comparable to Deity Yuan Hong. Hai Lingyin was also forced to do so. Wei Longxing had given him great pressure.

Huo Xin was very young and conservative in comparison. He chose a weaker Deity. Sun Dadi seemed indecisive. He stared at the eight Deity apparitions standing in the sky. He wanted to challenge a stronger one, but he also wanted a weaker one.

"Who should I choose? Him? No…how about him? No, no…" Sun Dadi was so troubled that he'd pulled out a handful of his hair.

"Are you going to choose or not?" a hot-tempered Deity yelled.

Since they were the soul apparitions, they also had their previous emotions and minds. Clearly, the eight apparitions were annoyed now.

Gritting his teeth, Sun Dadi finally made up his mind. Pointing at the hot-tempered Deity, he said, "You!"

That one was the strongest of the eight Deities. He was above average among all the Deities too. He wasn't any weaker than Deity Yuan Hong.

Wei Longxing, Hai Lingyin, Huo Xin, and Sun Dadi all began the second test at the same time. Shockingly, the four fought endlessly with their Deity apparitions. No one could produce a result within 100 strikes.

If there was a big difference in combat ability, the result would be obvious within a few strikes. The current situation would only occur when their combat abilities were similar.

"These four are so powerful. If they were in another era, each of them could become the Deity."

"These four all appeared in the same era. Does this mean that the Blood God Sect has produced four Deity-level prides?"

"You can't say that. After all, once they become the Deity, they'll receive more resources. Even if there's no difference now, the Deity will improve much more in the future."

…

All the Monks of the Blood God Sect were excited. They believed that the sect would reach a brilliant era in the near future. They would even surpass the Moon Worship Demonic Sect and become the first of the seven ancient sects.

After more than 500 strikes, the youngest, Huo Xin, defeated his opponent and became the first candidate to complete the second test.

Cheers arose below the Blood God Altar. Everyone congratulated Huo Xin. They all knew that Huo Xin's status in the younger generation would be second only to the Deity and Saintess.

If the others couldn't pass the second test, Huo Xin would also be the next Deity of the Blood God Sect.

Huo Xin was naturally very excited. His blood seemed to be boiling. Raising his head, he looked up at the fifth level, carefully watching Wei Longxing, Hai Lingyin, and Sun Dadi's results.

After 1,000 strikes, Wei Longxing finally lost to Deity Yuan Hong. He couldn't pass the second test. Even so, no one looked down on him. If he could take 1,000 strikes, it meant that he was at the same level as Deity Yuan Hong. If he'd performed better, he may have been able to defeat the Deity.

Sun Dadi fought against his opponent for four hours, exchanging thousands of blows. Finally, he lost because of a tiny mistake.

He let out a long sigh. Feeling regretful, he made a face and complained, "I should've challenged a weaker Deity. I shouldn't have been impulsive! Impulse is the devil."

"The Blood God Sect has been passed down since the middle age and produced many Deities throughout history. Each one was the cream of the crop. Sun Dadi and Wei Longxing challenged the stronger of the Deities too. Even though they lost, they've already proven their abilities."

"Eighty thousand years ago, when Deity Yuan Hong was alive, he was one of the top ten below the Saint Realm. Wei Longxing could exchange more than 1,000 blows with him. If he had been alive then, he would be known throughout the world too."

Wei Longxing and Sun Dadi's defeat made many people feel regret.

Hai Lingyin and his opponent fought for six hours without a result. In the end, it was judged as a tie. The rule of the Deity battle was that if they couldn't produce a victor within six hours, it would be a tie.

Hai Lingyin had experienced decades of hardship and had long produced an immovable Heart of Saintly Way. He didn't lament about the tie and quickly composed himself.

Now, Huo Xin was the most excited one. Only he had passed the second test. If Gu Linfeng also failed his challenge, Huo Xin would be the next Deity.

"Huo Xin is too lucky."

"The three strong figures all competed and clashed directly, but all three are hurt in the end, allowing Huo Xin to get the advantage."

…

All the Monks present thought that if Sun Dadi, Hai Lingyin, and Wei Longxing had challenged a below average Deity, they would have definitely won.

Then things would have nothing to do with Huo Xin. But in reality, Sun Dadi, Hai Lingyin, and Wei Longxing had all been disqualified. Instead, the unexpected Huo Xin would possibly become the newest Deity.

"Don't forget," someone reminded. "Gu Linfeng hasn't started the test yet."

If Huo Xin became the newest Deity, he would be unpopular. Many people were unsatisfied and unconvinced. Gu Linfeng becoming the Deity would be easier to accept.

Wei Longxing, Hai Lingyin, and Sun Dadi thought this way too. In comparison, they would rather Gu Linfeng become the Deity.

Sun Dadi sat cross-legged on the ground to recover. Brother Gu has the absolute advantage now, he thought. If he defeats a weaker Deity, he'll become the next Deity. He won't go looking for trouble and purposely challenge a stronger Deity, right?
