Chapter 351: Offering My Body For The Sake Of The Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty
The status of the white-clad female was clearly extraordinary.
She was the most beloved daughter of the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty’s Emperor Shi. At the same time, she was also one of the most beloved descendants of Huang Shi.
Since the day she was born, she had already been tested positive for one of the rarest constitutions—τhe Linglong Sage Body. As a result, Huang Shi himself had bestowed her the name “Shi Linglong”.
The number of people in the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty who had such a constitution could be counted on one hand.
And Shi Linglong did not disappoint. Since a young age, she had shown incredible intelligence and could master all sorts of techniques on her first try. She could even come up with her own concepts and improve on certain techniques.
Whether it was constitution or ability to understand, Shi Linglong was one of the top prodigies across the five regions. Even more precious was the fact that these two attributes were perfectly merged into one with her.
There were many female prodigies in Middle Ground, but no one could compare to Shi Linglong.
Otherwise, Southern Border’s Nirvana Mountain Phoenix race would never have let their princess, Feng Wu, sign a Phoenix God contract with her.
Shi Linglong was only in her early 20s now, but her cultivation level was already at the Nascent Soul stage. And her foundation was extremely solid. She had once been in the top 10 of the Golden Core List in Middle Ground.
It should be pointed out that Middle Ground prodigies were generally more powerful than those from the other regions. Middle Ground was the true competitive ground for prodigies.
When Middle Ground was at its peak, the most powerful Golden Core prodigies from other regions would enter the place to challenge. But they could not even make it to the top 10.
Even when Middle Ground was declining, the top-ranking prodigy on the Golden Core List remained indomitable and reigned over all the same-generation prodigies across the other four regions.
As a result, Middle Ground prodigies were always arrogant and superior when it came to prodigies from the other regions. This was a sense of entitlement accumulated and passed down from their predecessors!
Otherwise, Qi Shaoxuan would not have wanted to dominate Eastern Wilderness, North Sea, West Desert, and Southern Border first before finally turning his attention to Middle Ground. As proud as he was, he had to admit that the Middle Ground prodigies were extremely powerful.
If he didn’t accumulate some battle experience first and establish his status as an indomitable figure, it would be challenging for him to compete with the most powerful prodigies in Middle Ground.
It should be pointed out that after the Golden Crow Thearch’s Immortal Abode Island opened, Middle Ground sent forth quite a number of young prodigies to explore.
But because of some internal politics, the number of Middle Ground prodigies who had come forth was far below that of the other regions. And the most powerful of them all had yet to come.
Princess Linglong was one of the most powerful amongst the Middle Ground prodigies who had come for the trial. She was initially dismissive of the prodigies from the other regions and completely disregarded them.
As a result, she was totally shocked by Shen Tian’s aura.
She could feel her Sword Heart vibrating from the excitement of battle and even a vague sense of fear!
Her own Sword Heart would never deceive her!
What did this mean?
It meant that this prodigy was powerful enough to go against her. And there was a very high chance that he was more powerful than her and could defeat her.
This was a major blow to the haughty Princess Lingling. For a moment there, she was unable to accept that fact.
“As powerful as he is, he cannot possibly compare to Cousin Tianzi. But even so, he should be able to rank among the top five,” Princess Linglong muttered to herself as her eyes glittered with intense interest. “This aura feels like it was created from a lightning-attribute imperial sutra. Could it be the new Saint from the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground?”
The Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty reigned over the five regions and had a deep understanding of all the sacred grounds, races, and forbidden areas.
As Emperor Shi’s most beloved princess, Shi Linglong naturally had a very thorough knowledge of the five regions’ latest news.
According to the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty records, the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground used to be the most powerful in Eastern Wilderness. It could even stand up against the top three sacred grounds in Middle Ground.
Unfortunately, the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground had declined after that incident and never managed to rise again after that.
Nonetheless, the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s providence started improving over the past 1,000 years, and they managed to produce several exceptional prodigies. There had been signs of their resurgence.
Especially since the sudden appearance of their new Saint, their luck had been freakishly good.
If the Purple Mansion Saint’s domination over Eastern Wilderness was enough to give a slight pressure to the Middle Ground prodigies, then the news of this Divine Firmament Saint was enough to make Emperor Shi take notice.
Even before this Immortal Abode Island trial, Emperor Shi had specially instructed Shi Linglong to maintain good relations with the Divine Firmament Saint if possible.
Shi Linglong had been unconvinced as she thought it was completely unnecessary. But after sensing Shen Tian’s aura, she was reconsidering her father’s suggestion.
A prodigy as powerful as this, it is better to be on his good side!
It would be best if she could become good friends with him. After all, you could never have too many allies.
“Feng Wu, let’s go take a look at that Divine Firmament Saint!”
Princess Linglong patted the wings of the Phoenix below her. She slowly stood up and exuded a harsh sword aura, which felt like it could slice through the heavens and annihilate all her enemies!
Since they were going to meet each other, she must let the other party see her true abilities. Otherwise, given how prodigies usually were, he might completely disregard her.
There was a saying that went, “No discord, no concord.” For true prodigies, this was often true.
Swoosh!
A dazzling fire made half the sky glow red. Shi Linglong looked as if she had merged as one with the Phoenix, becoming a streak of red light shooting straight toward Shen Tian.
Closer!
Even closer now!
As the distance between them narrowed, Shi Linglong could feel the pressure increase.
At the start, she was still thinking of sparring with Shen Tian to test his abilities. But now, she had completely given up on that notion.
She could already feel that Shen Tian’s powers were far beyond her own.
She might not even be able to endure it if Shen Tian wanted to test her mettle. She might have to concede defeat after just a few blows.
Father was right. The Divine Firmament Sacred Ground has produced a great prodigy! I had underestimated the Divine Firmament Saint. He’s not just in the top five. He is likely powerful enough to be in the top three.
Apart from Cousin Tianzi, no one would be able to defeat him!
I am definitely allying myself with this prodigy! As long as I don’t have to offer up my physical body, I am willing to pay any price!
…
The golden lightning glow finally appeared before Shi Linglong.
Shi Linglong saw the figure engulfed inside through that golden lightning glow.
That svelte figure, those dazzling golden wings, the dashing armor, that mighty aura—it was extraordinary.
But even all those seemed to pale in comparison to that indescribably handsome face.
After seeing that man’s face, Princess Linglong only had one thought on her mind. She was thinking that actually… For the sake of the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty’s future…
She might be willing to offer up her physical body!
