69

In the heavenly realm,

The immortal Phoenix watched Lin Xiaoge, who was training. Lin Xiaoge no longer had her loli-like appearance.

She was now around 18 years old. She was an unmatched beauty who gave of a seductive yet tomboyish air.

"I have reached Celestial immortal. Can I go to the immortal realm?" She asked as she stopped her training, the many illusions of Phoenixes flying around her disappeared.

These illusions were close to being real, at a level that made one think they could feel the heat coming off these illusions.

The immortal Phoenix sighed in annoyance if it was anyone, so long they didn't have a connection to Odin or Zeus, she was okay with her daughter being friends with them.

The one person she might take a step back on would be Thor. He was well known for his straightforwardness and heroic actions of even putting his life on the line to save mortals.

But Ling Han was none of that. Ling Han did what he wanted, and putting his life on the line to save a random person seemed almost impossible.

"come, let's go to the void. I'm late for a meeting." She said with a sigh,

"I don't want to go to the void. just drop me off at the immortal realm." She said with a frown. Who wanted to go to some boring meeting filled with a bunch of old people?

"no, let's go to the forgotten realm. there you can meet with your uncles and even get to know their children." She said helplessly

"I would whether watch paint dry." She said with a pout. A vine couldn't help but appear on the immortal Phoenix forehead

"you can't just do what you want. That fool is living a life like that will soon meet his end." She said in annoyance

"Big brother Ling Han said it's better it live a short life than one filled with regrets, I life filled with work and pain is not living. if I can't live to the fullest, then isn't being immortal just going to be a pain?" She said with a snort

The immortal Phoenix almost exploded in rage. This was the dumbest thing she ever heard. How many people envy her, the immortal Phoenix. A phoenix that can't die, and even if she did, she would just come back to life as if nothing happened.

Although other Phoenix could do this, she had no limits to the number of times she could be reborn. She could come back to life over and over and slightly stronger than before.

Unless her body and soul are completely destroyed at the same time, she will be unkillable. Although it wasn't on the level of the primordial phoenic, she was the hardest thing to kill.

"none sense. How many people out there seek immortality but end up never finding it? that brat has filled your head with a bunch of none sense." She said angrily as immortal flames explored off her

"and those who find it ends up seeking death. A life without meaning to it is nothing compared to a life with meaning. Living every day on repeat is just like hell," She said with a frown

Hell was a work of torture, and the best way to torture someone isn't through the body but the mind. It's a world that brings out the worth fear of someone and puts it on repeat.

"living a life without worries sounds great, but those who lived such a life have come to regret it. People like Odin, the primordial's, and many more. Rules are placed for balance. Breaking them will lead others to follow, and before long, balance will be broken." She said softly a

"living life to its fullest will soon get boring. all pleasures will quickly get old and boring, living each step by step, and taking your time is much better than quickly enjoying it." She said as Lin Xiaoge hesitated, her words sounded reasonable, which made her agree

"you can go meet Ling Han when you wish. But to make it more exciting, you should do it with your own strength. Wouldn't that be better?" She said with a smile

"you are right. I will get stronger." Lin Xiaoge said with made the immortal Phoenix sigh in relief. she transformed into her Phoenix form as Lin Xiaoge hopped on, she flew off before disappearing, leaving ripples in space as if it was water

Back to Ling Han sat before Di Tian and Feng Yang, his two disciples. They have been in the back tower for over 2 years now. They didn't cultivate in these 2 years but only comprehended Dao.

Ling Han had forgotten he even had disciples. He just had better things to work about,

"I will be kicking you two out of my hair and send you back to the lower realm. The goal here is for you two to find me." Ling Han said calmly as he gave the two scrolls

"master, how do we about that?" Feng Yang asked in shock, but Ling Han shrugged

"that's for you to figure out. of course, you don't have to find me if you don't want to." Ling Han said calmly as he held out his finger. Two drops of immortal demon blood slowly dripped out of his finger, which made Di Tian Heart skip a beat.

He had the inheritance of a demon cultivator. He could sense how valuable that blood drop was.

"that scroll holds a blood cultivation art. only those with my blood can cultivate it. I will be giving you the immortal demon bloodline. This will speed up your cultivation." Ling Han said lazily

The two quickly paid their respect as they accepted the blood drop. Ling Han waved his hands as he sent the two back to the lower realm.

After they left, Ling Han appeared in the outside world as he went towards the place the competition was being held.

Yesterday was the finals. Today was the day in which others can step up and challenge those ranked in the top 500 and gained the right to enter the holy ground.

Sometimes people could just be having bad luck and face those much stronger than them. While someone they could beat gained the right to enter the holy ground.

This was also a way to clean things up and make those in the top 500 more accurate. You can't have the person ranked 500 have the strength to face the person ranked second.

Ling Han entered the giant Colosseum-looking building and even to take a seat as he waited with closed eyes

'. I could fight a peak human immortal. not to mention that I have reached the second level of the God body.' Ling Han thought

The technique Shiva gave him had 3 levels. The first level was to master all combat styles. from hand to hand, weaponry combat. Not master the Dao, but to master the combat style.

The second level was to remove the limitation known as the 6 senses. And fight without the need of such things as thinking, Ling Han luckily had comprehended this level when Daul cultivating with Elise.

Ling Han opened his eyes and watched the seats that had filled

Ling Han watched the stage as a middle-aged man walked out above him. Light gathered to form a screen that could be seen at all sides. This screen showed the top 500,

as for the size of this screen, the stage alone was the size of a large city. The screen was large enough for everyone to see clearly.

Of course, a normal human would not be able to see that far. It was mostly due to their cultivation that they could see.

"for those who think they had a bad draw, today is your lucky day as you can step up and challenge someone and take their ranking and gain the right to enter the holy grounds." The middle-aged man said as everyone began looking around for who will be the first person to step up.

The first person to step up will just be making it easier for someone else. A fight lasted an hour, and after the fight, they will be given 30 minutes before they could be challenged again.

Ling Han seeing no one was stepping up, stood up.

"I will be challenging whoever is reached 69." Ling Han said calmly as he jumped onto the stage.

Everyone was speechless. What was a half-step human immortal doing on this stage? one could know everyone in the ranking were no pushovers. Even a late human immortal would be defeated with a single pinky by anyone in the top 500 rankings.

"what?" The middle-aged man frowned. He couldn't help but wonder if he heard things.

"I said I want to fight the guy ranked 69th place. Is that a problem? I don't remember the rulers saying there was a limit to who stepped onto this stage." Ling Han asked with a frown,

The middle-aged man frowned, but Ling Han was telling the truth. And he didn't care to worn a full wishing for death, looking at who was 69th, he called him out.

"Yin Hong." the middle-aged man called. A second later a beautiful woman float down from the sky.

She had a slight frown as she looked at Ling Han, a half-step human immortal challenged her. It was clear Ling Han challenged her to get close to her, which made most males click their tongues.

How did they not think of this? This guy was clearly had a bright future.

"your sect token." The middle-aged man said calmly as the two threw their token towards him.

After a second, an image of Ling Han and Yin Hong appeared above the stage along with some of his information, such as his cultivation, was shown.

His age wasn't shown as it gets troublesome to keep track of such things.

Yin Hong had a cultivation of mid-earth immortal. She had the combat strength of late earth immortal,

after the match began, Yin Hong didn't even bother to draw her sword. She lifted her hand as a shock wave shot towards Ling Han, but Ling Han stepped aside, dodging the attack with closed eyes.

Slowly his hair turned dark red as he transformed into his half human half demon dragon form. He smiled slightly as he opened his eyes.

"do you know why I pick 69?" Ling Han asked with a smile, but he was answered with a snort as Yin Hong sent another shock wave.

This attack was hundreds of times stronger, but Ling Han moved, dodging the attack once again.

Yin Hong was stunned along with the crowd. One should know her first attack had the strength of an easy human immortal and that the last one had the strength of a peak human immortal.

It should have been impossible for a half-step human immortal to dodge these attacks. Yet Ling Han was moving around as he dodges the attack.

"it seems like you are getting serious. I should do the same, or else I will close." Ling Han said as he did a few hand seals. Lightning gathered around his body, forming a chaotic armor.

The armor got denser and denser, and before long. It looked like real armor, with one unable to see Ling Han through the armor.

Ling Han stepped forward as he appeared before Yin Hong, a fist shot towards Yin Hong. His fist went through her head, something which shocked Ling Han.

How could a mid-Earth immortal be so weak, but he suddenly saw Yin Hong's body turn into space which formed behind her.

"what the?" Ling Han said in shock and confusion

"you caught me off guard. I didn't expect you to hide your cultivation. You are mid-earth immortal. You are strong but not strong enough." Yin Hong said coldly, how could someone be shameless as to hide their cultivation.

Ling Han didn't say anything as he looked at her condition.

'Whatever she did, she can't use it over and over. her Qi had dropped by 10%, that most be a bloodline ability or a technique she cultivates.' Ling Han thought as he watched as smoke began to come off her body.

Before long, a thick smoke fog the whole stage, Ling Han noticed his spirit sense, and all other sense began useless within this smoke.

Ling Han closed his eyes as he used the God technique once again. After a few seconds, a sword calm flying from his side. The sword came flying towards a weak spot on his lightning armor.

But Ling Han suddenly moved. It was perfect timing as he dodged the sword before grabbing Yin Hong's arm. With a slight twist, she dropped the sword to the ground before Ling Han's finger moved.

Stabbing his finger in one of her key Meridian. with that, she was no longer able to use Qi properly. Although she could still use Qi, she would just need to use more Qi than usually, and it would take much longer to channel Qi

The smoke slowly began to disappear, allowing everyone to see what happened. Ling Han armor had disappeared and was back to his normal form.

He had Yin Hong back facing him, and he spoke into her hear. Yin Hong's face suddenly blushes, which stunned everyone. not knowing what Ling Han said.

"you pervert. let me go." Yin Hong said quickly, after knowing why Ling Han picked 69.

Ling Han shrugged as he let her go. Yin Hong didn't have the face to stay as she ran off the stage.

"The winner... Ling Han." The middle ages man said in confusion, not know what happened. but since Yin Hong ran off the stage, the match went to Ling Han

Ling Han went to sit in the middle of the ring as he looked at the crowd.

"I will keep the 69th spot. If anyone one wants it, just step up. I don't feel like being challenged later on." Ling Han said calmly
