Chapter 211: Misidentified
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Indeed, Zhuang Yangbing was now a very suspicious target for Jing Ming.
Whether it was Zhuang Yangbing’s disguise or his Core Formation Stage cultivation, in Jing Ming’s opinion, they all matched the characteristics of the luck thief.
Zhuang Yangbing, who was simply in disguise to avoid fellow disciples from the Xueyang Sect, would never have thought that he would be suspected of being a luck thief.
If only he knew that there were actually Apotheosis Stage experts monitoring the cultivators in the Immortal Ascension Assembly, Zhuang Yangbing might not have done something like that
Similar to Lu Yuan, Zhuang Yangbing did not have a detailed understanding of the Immortal Ascension Assembly.
He had thought that there might be cultivators from the Upper Realm supervising the Immortal Ascension Assembly. However, he felt that the cultivator supervising them would only be at the Core Formation Stage.
One had to know that because of the inheritance in the Upper Realm, a Nascent Soul Stage First Level cultivator could even be regarded as a cultivator in the peak of the Nascent Soul Stage or even the Apotheosis Stage in the Lower Realm.
After all, the biggest difference between the Upper Realm and the Lower Realm was still in terms of inheritance.
Cultivation was not the entirety of a cultivator’s strength. It could even be said that cultivation only accounted for less than half of a cultivator’s strength.
Cultivation technique, the type of divine abilities cultivated, and the cultivation level of those divine abilities would greatly affect a cultivator’s strength.
Because the cultivators of the Upper Realm had complete inheritances, they could come into contact with many high-grade cultivation techniques and divine abilities that the Lower Realm could not imagine.
In addition, the spiritual energy in the Upper Realm was almost ten times denser than in the Lower Realm.
As a result, the cultivators of the Upper Realm cultivated much faster than the cultivators of the Lower Realm.
In the Lower Realm, it was already not bad to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage before the age of 30.
However, in the Upper Realm, many people were already in the Foundation Establishment Stage at the age of ten.
There were even some geniuses who were born with cultivation above the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Such a huge gap caused the cultivators of the Upper Realm to be a dimensional blow to the Lower Realm.
A Nascent Soul Stage cultivator from the Upper Realm could easily get the Immortal Ascension Assembly under control.
Therefore, Zhuang Yangbing felt that if there were really people from the Upper Realm invigilating the Immortal Ascension Assembly, no matter how many people there were, their cultivation would only be at the Nascent Soul Stage.
There shouldn’t be any cultivators at the Apotheosis Stage.
That was Zhuang Yangbing’s own judgment.
However, if only Nascent Soul Stage cultivators were sent, Zhuang Yangbing felt that the people of the Immortal Ascension Assembly might not be a match for the Upper Realm cultivators disguised as Xueyang Sect cultivators.
Zhuang Yangbing knew very well that the methods and strength of those fellows were not something that a Lower Realm cultivator could cultivate.
Even though his little mouse was quickly killed by one of the Twelve Earthly Branches, Zhuang Yangbing was still able to roughly gauge the strength of those people.
There were three Nascent Soul Stage cultivators in the group.
If three Nascent Soul Stage cultivators from the Upper Realm were to go out to the outside world, they could easily crush all the sects outside, let alone those in the Full Moon Mountain Range.
Although Zhuang Yangbing didn’t know what they were up to, he felt that they were definitely up to no good.
In order to avoid being implicated by them, Zhuang Yangbing was forced to disguise himself as an unaffiliated cultivator.
He could tell that he could not stay in Xueyang Sect any longer.
He could use the current opportunity to leave this d*mned place.
On the one hand, Zhuang Yangbing could escape from those dangerous fellows, and on the other hand, he could enter a wider world.
Thinking of that, Zhuang Yangbing decided to perform well in the Immortal Ascension Assembly.
As long as the first two rounds were over and there were fewer people, it would not be easy for those guys to cause trouble even if they wanted to.
After all, it seemed that those guys did not want to be in the open and just wanted to act behind the scenes.
He had to seize the time and pass through the Heavenly Gate as soon as possible to enter the Upper Realm.
Thinking of that, Zhuang Yangbing went all out.
Originally, his speed was considered average, but toward the end, he actually began to slowly pass many people.
The subsequent long Immortal Ladder did not pose too much of a threat to him.
In just two hours, Zhuang Yangbing had successfully reached the second stage.
Meanwhile, in the Sacred Realm, Jing Ming looked at Zhuang Yangbing, who had suddenly exerted his strength, and his eyes were filled with doubt.
Originally, he thought that Zhuang Yangbing was most likely the guy who stole luck.
After all, Zhuang Yangbing’s performance in the first half of the game was indeed in line with his image of a steady, forbearing, and scheming thief.
However, Zhuang Yangbing’s sudden burst of strength left him confused.
After all, such a move was a little high-profile.
Jing Ming felt that Zhuang Yangbing was in a hurry to clear the dungeon.
Jing Ming pondered for a moment and suddenly thought of an explanation.
Zhuang Yangbing probably thought that the Upper Realm would definitely react to the matter of the luck being stolen and send people down.
Hence, Zhuang Yangbing wanted to pass the Path for Immortal Ascension in the shortest time possible and enter the Upper Realm through the Heavenly Gate before getting caught.
Once he entered the Upper Realm, which was much more vast, the danger to him would be greatly reduced..
