Chapter 807: Completely Targeted
To the people present, a small pagoda only three or four zhang high was truly nothing. After all, the Cultivators who could appear here were either the leaders of major factions from various Level 2 Divine Kingdoms or young Prodigies.
Any of the Immortal Caves or palaces they lived in daily were far more majestic than this small pagoda.
But although the small pagoda was not large, the scene unfolding now shocked them beyond measure!
Because this nine-story pagoda had actually managed to withstand Venerable Tianji's palm strike head-on!
What terrified the crowd even more was that, apart from that single roar, there was no other sound from the collision.
There was no earth-shattering explosion as everyone had imagined, nor were there any world-destroying energy shockwaves.
Right under their gaze, the giant palm, which contained the terrifying strike of a Saint Spirit Realm expert, began to melt away upon touching the nine-story pagoda, just like ice meeting a blazing fire!
Silently, the massive spirit power palm transformed directly into specks of light, dissipating between heaven and earth.
The nine-story pagoda, however, did not even sway; it remained floating steadily above Ye Wudao's head, golden light circulating, sacred and inviolable.
Standing beneath the pagoda, Ye Wudao was completely unscathed; not even a corner of his clothing was damaged!
Conversely, in mid-air, Venerable Tianji's figure had swayed imperceptibly the moment his palm struck.
He quickly clasped his hand behind his back, his expression remaining indifferent.
Yet, if anyone could see his palm, they would discover that it was bright red, and his fingers were even trembling slightly and uncontrollably!
Dead silence! The entire White Jade Plaza plunged into a deathly silence!
Everyone widened their eyes and dropped their jaws, staring blankly at the scene below the arena.
Everyone stood frozen in place as if under a binding spell, their minds blank.
Elder Yin Changhong, who had been rushing forward, suddenly stopped, his mouth agape, the despair on his face instantly replaced by boundless shock.
He knew Ye Wudao must have other Opportunities and trump cards, but he never imagined that Ye Wudao actually possessed such a treasure!
Elder Yin Changhong felt his heart shake violently after only slightly sensing the terrifying aura emanating from the nine-story pagoda!
The Saint Spirit Realm experts from the various Level 2 Divine Kingdoms watching the battle also had expressions that were extremely dramatic.
Daluo Immortal Sect Sect Master Shangguan Qing abruptly stood up, staring fixedly at the hongmeng pagoda, his breathing rapid.
Branch President Zhou Zhengqi of the Tianyuan Chamber of Commerce's Wanxing Divine Kingdom branch crushed the teacup in his hand into powder, completely unaware that the tea had spilled all over the floor.
Queen Ji Yu of the Vermilion Bird Kingdom even stopped breathing, her beautiful face filled with unconcealable shock.
The Emperor of the Shengtian Dynasty suddenly stood up, his eyes nearly popping out! All the experts were dumbfounded!
A full dozen breaths passed. Then, with a loud boom, the White Jade Plaza erupted!
"W-what kind of treasure is that?!" "He actually… blocked a strike from a Venerable?" "Unharmed! He is actually completely unharmed!"
A tsunami-like roar of astonishment erupted from the crowd, and disbelief was written on everyone's faces.
High in the sky, Venerable Tianji stared fixedly at the nine-story pagoda, his breathing gradually becoming heavy.
Having lived for so many years, he had seen countless treasures. Let alone High Grade Spirit Treasures, he had even seen top-tier Spirit Treasures. Yet, the aura emitted by this small pagoda surpassed any grade within his knowledge!
"W-what grade of treasure is this?!" Venerable Tianji roared internally.
At the same time, an irrepressible greed sprouted wildly in the depths of his heart like a poisonous weed.
If he could obtain this pagoda, his strength would definitely undergo a qualitative leap, and perhaps he might even break through the shackles of the Saint Spirit Realm to reach a higher Realm!
It was not just him. The various experts who had been awakened by the crowd's discussions also had their gazes change.
After all, the subtle trembling of Venerable Tianji's right hand might have escaped the notice of lower-level Cultivators, but it absolutely could not escape the Saint Spirit Realm experts from the various Level 2 Divine Kingdoms present!
Queen Ji Yu tightly pressed her palms together, restraining herself from making a move, but the greed in her eyes was almost impossible to conceal.
The Emperor of the Shengtian Dynasty had stood up abruptly, drool nearly dripping from the corner of his mouth. There were even more Saint Spirit Realm experts whose eyes were fixed in a stare!
At this moment, they all had the same thought in their minds. It was a supreme treasure! This small pagoda was absolutely a supreme treasure!
It could effortlessly neutralize a strike from Venerable Tianji and even make Venerable Tianji suffer a hidden loss. Such a treasure could absolutely change the fate of any person or even any Divine Kingdom!
In an instant, gazes filled with undisguised greed, like hungry wolves eyeing a piece of fresh meat, converged simultaneously on Ye Wudao and the hongmeng pagoda!
On the No. 10 Arena, Princess Ji Ruxue was also stunned. She had once been a Saint Spirit Realm expert, Venerable Vermilion Bird, and her discernment was on par with the experts present.
The moment the nine-story pagoda appeared, she even felt her Divine Soul trembling! It was an attraction that drew her in so completely that she couldn't maintain her composure at all!
"Could it be that the power which heavily injured this Venerable back then came from this small pagoda?!" Princess Ji Ruxue screamed internally, her expression becoming somewhat twisted due to extreme greed.
At this moment, she had completely forgotten about Yue Liuli. There was only one thought in her mind. It was to snatch it, she must snatch it! With this small pagoda, why should she worry about not returning to her Peak? She could even step into a higher Realm!
Princess Ji Ruxue's gaze instantly became intense.
Meanwhile, in the spectator area where the people from the Dongyi Divine Kingdom were located, Elder Yin Changhong, who had been forced to stop halfway, looked at the gazes of the people around him, and the shock on his face was quickly replaced by deep worry.
This was bad! He knew the character of this bunch too well. The Divine Realm had always been a place where the strong preyed on the weak, and treasures moved people's hearts. Since Ye Wudao had exposed such a Heaven-Defying supreme treasure in public, he would likely never have another peaceful day!
Cheng Yuan and Li Mingxin, the two Saint Spirit Realm Elders, exchanged a glance and saw deep gravity on each other's faces.
"This kid was impulsive," Cheng Yuan sighed and transmitted his voice.
Li Mingxin shook her head with a bitter smile and also transmitted, "If it were you, watching your beloved being tortured like that, could you hold back?"
"It's just that none of us expected Ye Wudao to have such a supreme treasure." As she spoke, she sighed and continued transmitting, "This is a huge problem. I fear that as soon as the Prodigy Ranking Tournament ends, those old fogies will move in the shadows. Ye Wudao will have no peace from now on!"
Both of them furrowed their brows, each more worried than the other. The three Elders' concerned gazes were now so intense they were almost tangible, seemingly glued to Ye Wudao's back.
