Chapter 2128: Chapter 2128
Su Yang fell into the Zhang Family, while Beigong War God and the others remained outside.
Under the guidance of the Martial Champion's servant, Su Yang once again arrived at the thatched cottage in the backyard.
Everything here was no different from before; it was still as empty and calm as ever.
The Martial Champion was still standing on that platform, which was the Moon Tower, the passage from the Human World to the moon.
Later, Su Yang asked the dean and found out that the front side of the moon and the back side of the moon were not the same space.
The Human World could only see the front side of the moon, while the real danger was hidden on the back side of the moon.
The roars Su Yang heard at the Moon Tower all came from the far side of the moon.
Seeing Su Yang come over, the Martial Champion smiled gently and said loudly, "Long time no see, Su Alliance Leader. Your progress in strength is truly admirable!"
Su Yang also smiled, "Old Zhang says this, but it seems my modest strength may not be able to fulfill your wish!"
The Martial Champion smiled faintly, saying nothing, but stepped aside from where he stood, softly saying, "Today we will not fight, just stand here for a while."
Su Yang was surprised, as he came to challenge the Martial Champion this time.
The Martial Champion was a mountain, a mountain in front of cultivators below the Land Immortal Realm of the Nine Realms. Only by surpassing this mountain could one be truly called the foremost under the Land Immortal Realm.
In fact, Monk Wunian had told Su Yang. The Martial Champion's strength was not only invincible below the Land Immortal, but among the Land Immortal Realm in the Nine Realms, those who could rival him were few and far between.
The Martial Champion was the only existence in the Human World referred to as a Sub-Saint.
The so-called Sub-Saint means next to a Saint.
In the Nine Realms, the strongest are the Saints; every Saint in each realm is an invincible existence.
The Sub-Saint is the strongest below a Saint.
In the Nine Realms, other than the Human World, every other realm has Saints, just a matter of how many.
For example, the Heavenly Realm has three Saints, the most among the Nine Realms.
The Buddha Domain has two Saints.
The Demon Realm has two Saints.
The Feather Realm has two Saints.
The Ghost Realm has two Saints.
The Asura Realm originally had one Saint, but recently another has ascended to a Saint. Although their foundation is unstable, it counts as two Saints.
As for the Land of Extreme Cold and the Land of Red Flame, they each have one Saint, which is the main reason these two places have always allied together. Otherwise, they would not be able to compare to the other eight realms!
The Human World has only the Martial Champion as a Sub-Saint. Moreover, the crucial point is that the Martial Champion does not count as a member of the Human World; he does not concern himself with the affairs of the Human World, focusing mainly on protecting the Nine Realms.
In such circumstances, the Human World urgently needs the emergence of several Sub-Saints to support the Human World.
Of course, if a Saint could appear, then the Human World would truly be on par with the other eight realms.
Su Yang challenges the Martial Champion to see how far he is from the realm of Sub-Saint. He knows that by understanding his own realm, he can gauge the realms of people like Beigong War God and thus estimate the power gap between the Human World and the other eight realms.
Yet now, instead of fighting, the Martial Champion just wants Su Yang to stand on the platform. What does this mean?
"Old Zhang, I've been on this platform before!" Su Yang reminded.
"This time is different," the Martial Champion smiled faintly. "Last time, I was also on the platform. But this time, I won't be here!"
"Huh?" Su Yang was puzzled, not understanding what difference it made if the Martial Champion stood on the platform or not.
But in the end, Su Yang didn't ask more, and still followed the Martial Champion's suggestion, walking straight to the platform.
This time standing on the platform felt completely different for Su Yang.
Before, standing here felt like stepping into the starry sky, with nothing visible.
But now, Su Yang could clearly grasp directions and even see the position of the Martial Champion.
Of course, the roars in the starry sky continued unabated, and Su Yang could hear them clearly.
"Come to me!" the Martial Champion's voice called from the starry sky.
If it were before, Su Yang might have heard the voice but would have had no idea where it came from.
But now, with his current strength, Su Yang could finally find his bearings.
"Alright!" Su Yang replied, raising his head, and walked straight towards the direction of the Martial Champion.
The starry sky was vast, and with each step Su Yang crossed a thousand miles, walking briskly towards the Martial Champion.
Finally, Su Yang arrived beside the Martial Champion. At this moment, the Martial Champion retreated a step.
"Stand at this position!" the Martial Champion pointed to the original spot and said, without addressing Su Yang further, and directly left.
Su Yang was puzzled but still walked over to stand at the Martial Champion's position.
As soon as he stood firm, a roar suddenly came. Immediately, a gigantic creature descended from the sky, heading straight for Su Yang.
Su Yang's expression changed; he saw clearly that it was a gigantic fierce beast, about a thousand feet tall, resembling a lion but with a horn on its head and covered in scales, extremely ferocious, roaring as it charged over.
"What's going on?" Su Yang was surprised, just as he was about to turn and dodge, the Martial Champion's voice came from behind: "You can't retreat. If you retreat, this thing will enter the Human World!"
Su Yang's expression changed, seeing the lion already rushing before him, he dared not think more, only facing it with a punch.
"Roar!" the lion roared furiously; its massive paw-like a gigantic airplane slapped down.
With a loud boom, Su Yang took a step back, while the lion was knocked back several dozen miles.
Receiving such a blow, the lion grew even more furious, roaring as it charged down again. This time, it didn't use its paws but instead aimed its horn at him.
Su Yang frowned; he could feel the lion's power was extremely strong, stronger than the demon beasts he fought in the valley. However, for the current Su Yang, the lion's combat strength was nothing.
Taking a deep breath, Su Yang gathered his power and punched directly at the lion's horn.
The lion's horn was indeed very strong; this strike shook Su Yang's body, his energy and blood churning within.
However, the lion suffered more severe trauma; Su Yang's strike almost broke its horn.
The lion howled in pain but still didn't retreat, roaring as it charged down again.
"Crazy?" Su Yang was surprised; what was wrong with this lion? Knowing it was no match, yet still rushing down? Had it grown tired of living?
"Seeking death!" Su Yang shouted lowly, striking with full force, preparing to severely wound the lion with one blow, making it retreat in fear.
