Chapter 834: Heading to Qian City (3)
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“But unlike us, they only need to train step by step to reach the four limits break to become the ultimate fighter…”
Yes… The cultivation of the native is also different from ours. They use more magic tools, array formations, spells, and other methods to fight…” “On our side, we mainly focus on physical combat…”
“To put it in a more modern way, they are mages while we are warriors. Or perhaps, they are immortal cultivators while we are martial artists…” In terms of combat strength, we are slightly inferior to them… “Of course, that’s what the books say. I’ve never been to an exotic land. I have to see the truth with my own eyes…”
” That’s why the exotic land is very dangerous. Even ultimate fighters have a high death rate when they go to the exotic land.”
“It’s fine if it’s an ordinary Fourth Tier fighter, but there’s also a possibility of an ultimate fighter dying in the Exotic Land Realm?!” Zhao Yu said in surprise. “Of course!”
Xu Chang Qing nodded and said,” Actually, there’s a special realm above the Fourth tier and Ultimate fighter…”
“Yes… “Although the environment in the Exotic Lands is unique, the cultivation method is different from ours, and the number of experts is much higher than ours…”
“However, their upper limit is actually similar to ours. The strongest can only reach tier 4…”
However, there is still a realm called the ‘pinnacle’ above the limit…”
An existence at this level could kill an ultimate fighter who is almost invincible on our side with one finger…”
“I don’t know what the pinnacle is either. I only know that the combat strength of such an existence is shocking and can easily kill anyone. However, it’s difficult to say how they reached this realm…”
At the very least, there are almost no people on our side who have reached the pinnacle…”
Xu Chang Qing said with some regret.
After all, she was a new citizen born and raised here. She was still a little unhappy that the top ultimate fighters on her side were not as strong as those from the exotic lands.
However, this can also be considered a blessing and a curse. The spiritual energy here is not good enough, and the top experts in the exotic land look down on us. They can’t be bothered to attack us. This gives us the opportunity to develop and soon attack back…”
“We are too far off the topic now…”
Xu Chang Qing shook her head as if she did not want to talk about this topic.” Back to before, speaking of ultimate fighters, other than going to the exotic land to extend their lifespan, there is another way to freeze themselves…” “Just as I said before, those ultimate fighters in their prime years in the Ultimate fighter families will usually forge ahead and be very active…” “As for the other ultimate fighter experts were generally less active was quite a large number. Therefore, they invented a way to overcome those Ultimate fighter stayed in the exotic land. After all, those experts weren’t dead; they could return at any moment.
Though they cannot kill their peers, they can easily wipe out the rest of a family’s members…”
“Thus, every family here is akin to a trump card. Normally, they avoid confronting each other directly…”
There s another method similar to extending life in a exotic land realm: freezing. This secret technique, learned from those realms, allows experts with dwindling lifespans to enter a frozen state, suspending their life until their family faces a crisis…”
“Many families likely practice this. While they may not have single ultimate fighter due to their current members active exploring at the exotic land, one could appear in times of danger. Such families are known as Ancient Clan among the Ultimate fighter families, reflecting their esteemed status…” Xu Chang Qing paused before continuing, “Among the Ultimate fighter families, I mentioned more than fifteen families. This means their current ultimate fighter experts are active and alive, either in Qian City or in the exotic land realm, always influential…”
“In Qian City, there are many Ancient Clans, and perhaps the most terrifying are these clans…”
After all, their ultimate fighter experts are near the end of their lifespans.
Once awakened, no one knows if they might go mad and slaughter indiscriminately…”
Xu Chang Qing added, “History classes tell of an Ancient Clan ancestor who was awakened a millennium ago…”
“The result was madness and mass slaughter, leaving devastation until several ultimate fighter experts came back from Holy City or returned back from the exotic land to restrain and eventually kill him, ending the calamity…”
I understand…” Zhao Yu nodded solemnly.
He realized that even if he considered himself invincible at the third tier, he couldn’t act recklessly in Qian City, where fourth tier experts were common and ultimate fighters roamed freely like a walking weapon.
Seeing Zhao Yu’s less frivolous demeanor, Xu Chang Qing nodded, satisfied her warning had an effect, and smiled, “But you don’t need to worry too much…” “Most people are busy, even the fourth tier fighter also joined group with the ultimate fighters frequently entering exotic realms to seek life-extending items, rarely bothering with conflicts among the families…”
“The only ones who might target you are fourth tier fighter from ordinary families…”
“These fighters aren’t powerful as a group of them can’t deal with a single four tier fighter with one limit break. So they are not invited to join in the team to the exotic land and outcast by the society. Still, they are more than enough to deal with you…”
“When my grandfather arrives in Qian City next month, under his protection, we should be safe…”
“Keep a low profile and endure this period…”
Zhao Yu’s eyes lit up, “What’s the strength of your grandfather? Is he also an Ultimate fighter?!”
Xu Chang Qing’s expression twitched slightly, replying helplessly, “If my grandfather were an Ultimate Fighter, we wouldn’t be here…”
“But with the Void Symbol Art, he should be able to escape even if he encounters an Ultimate Fighter…”
Whether he could actually escape, Xu Chang Qing didn’t know at all but she hoped so.
Zhao Yu believed him, knowing well the true power of the Void Symbol Art. If he reached the Fourth Tier with the Void Symbol Art and the Defense Symbol Art, he might escape an Ultimate Fighter’s grasp.
As they walked and talked, Zhao Yu gained some understanding of Qian City. “Whoosh—!”
A few days later, as they crossed a dense forest, a beam of rainbow light shot into the sky in the distance.
“What’s that?!”
Zhao Yu asked in surprise.
“This is…”
After a brief pause, Xu Chang Qing’s face lit up with joy, “An Apex Tomb! An
Apex Tomb has emerged—we’re going to be rich!”
Saying this, she rushed towards the light at full speed.
Zhao Yu hurriedly followed, shouted, “What is an Apex Tomb?!”
Without turning her head, Xu Chang Qing explained, “I mentioned this before. Thousands of years ago, foreign fighters invaded our world, including some experts…”
“Some of these experts, having lived for millennia in their realm, rapidly aged upon entering our world, unable to return…”
Before their deaths, some buried themselves with treasures, hiding their corpses from being defiled by our world…”
“That’s not important. What matters is that these Tombs contain many fourth tier treasures and countless valuables…”
“We’re far from Qian City, so we should be the first to discover it-we’re going to be rich!”
Xu Chang Qing, extremely excited, quickened her pace even more.
The two raced towards the tomb.
As they neared the site, sounds of battle reached them.
“Shh—!”
Xu Chang Qing’s face grew serious. She stopped and gestured for Zhao Yu to remain silent.
Zhao Yu cautiously followed her, the two moving stealthily towards the source of the sounds.
