Chapter 329: Chapter 329
Yun Xiao Fairy slightly furrowed her brows.
This was not her first time attending the Ginsengfruit Assembly, and she knew well that the brightness of the Treasure Beads in Xiao Zhen's and Deng Hua's hands was extraordinarily rare even in past Ginsengfruit Assemblies, almost assuring their top two positions with near certainty.
Not only did she think so, but almost all the Immortal Gods present were praising the two, claiming they were truly worthy disciples of Chan Sect.
Yet these two Chan Sect disciples were not renowned, nor were their Dao Xing profound, so how did they accumulate so much Merit in merely three days?
Yun Xiao Fairy glanced meaningfully at Shengong Bao, who was bowing his head in silence.
Intuition told her that this inconspicuous Chan Sect disciple might be the key.
However, she did not delve deeper, turning her gaze towards Nanji Immortal and speaking indifferently, "My nephew had to leave due to urgent matters, let's call off the bet between you..."
"That cannot be called off!"
A hearty laugh interrupted Yun Xiao Fairy's speech, followed by a tall and valiant figure arriving on clouds, heading straight towards the Ginsengfruit tree.
As he passed by Nanji Immortal, he laughed out loud, "Uncle Master, prepare the Five Fire Seven Feather Fan well, don't deny the bet after you lose."
Nanji Immortal's expression slightly changed, showing some surprise that he could actually make it back, and seemed to conceal something else.
Yun Xiao Fairy's eyes revealed a hint of joy, as she had been worried these past two days.
Seeing Yu Yuan now looking spirited, a huge weight lifted off her heart.
It seemed that nothing wrong must have happened to her senior sister, otherwise, her nephew would not have possibly made it back in time.
At this time, Yu Yuan had already arrived under the Ginsengfruit tree, looking smilingly at Xiao Zhen and Deng Hua, then turned his head towards Shengong Bao sitting below, and sneered, "You two must feel pretty smug now, to let a Direct Disciple be a stepping stone for you… tsk tsk, Disaster Control and Human Salvation Scripture, to think that there is actually a fool who would cultivate such Divine Skills…"
Xiao Zhen's and Deng Hua's expressions changed dramatically.
The former, especially, was shocked and blurted out, "How could you…"
Fortunately, Deng Hua beside him promptly stopped him, interrupting, "We do not understand what you're talking about, friend. If you're here to compete, then show your Merit Treasure Pearl, otherwise please leave."
He didn't expect that an offhand bluff would truly coax something out.
Disaster Control and Calamity Scripture!
In his past life memories, he had heard of Shengong Bao cultivating this Mystical Skill, turning himself into the source of disasters, such that those whose Realm was not enough to ward off calamities would encounter great peril merely through contact with him.
This Mystical Skill, not to mention anything else, had unmatched lethality during Calamities.
One could unknowingly be beset by disasters and calamities.
Xiao Zhen and Deng Hua were able to earn so much Merit, most likely with a mere effort of Shengong Bao.
After all, wherever he went, he could bring disaster and calamity, and Xiao Zhen and Deng Hua just needed to follow and clean up the aftermath to earn vast amounts of Merit.
Without any accidents, they would possibly secure the first and second places.
Unfortunately for them, they encountered Yu Yuan.
"I'm not targeting anyone else…" Yu Yuan looked at Xiao Zhen and Deng Hua, smiled, and said, "I just want to say, you two are really weak!" Content presented by *.
While speaking, he lifted the Treasure Bead in his hand.
The next instant, the Treasure Bead in his hand burst forth with an extremely dazzling Merit Golden Light, as brilliant as a mini Taiyang, illuminating the entire square, so bright that it hurt to keep eyes open.
Under such blinding Merit Golden Light, all the Treasure Beads in the hands of other Immortal Gods seemed dim and dull, even Xiao Zhen and Deng Hua's Beads were barely visible like fireflies against the Bright Moon.
Beholding this shocking scene, the crowd fell into deathly silence.
How much Merit was needed to release such a dazzling and bright Merit Golden Light?
It was truly terrifying!
The amount of Merit was probably enough to refine a Merit Golden Body, wasn't it?
After the silence, many Immortal Gods couldn't help but swallow hard, looking at the Treasure Bead in Yu Yuan's hands, their eyes filled with hope and awe.
This One Qi Immortal from Jie Sect, to be able to earn such vast Merit in just three short days, even walking the Earth Immortal Dao could reach profoundly high realms in a short time.
Zhen Yuanzi, sitting under the Ginsengfruit tree, had his expression change for the first time, his eyes twinkling with interest as he examined Yu Yuan.
At this moment, the most shocked were Xiao Zhen, Deng Hua, and the Chan Sect disciples such as Nanji Immortal below.
They had thought that with Shengong Bao's ability, this bet should have been almost a sure win.
But they had not expected that in the end, they would still lose to Yu Yuan, and the loss was so complete!
