Chapter 148 Only One Person

Sky.

Ten soft white lights slowly descended.

His feet stepped on the solid land again, and Guanshan slowly opened his eyes.

It was completely different from the scene that Lu Changsheng saw. In front of Guanshan, there was only a towering stone tablet, engraved with dense names.

A white-haired old man stood quietly beside the stone tablet with a hunched back, as if waiting for their arrival.

The surroundings were all impenetrable gray fog, covering this world, leaving only a small circular area for them to move.

"How long have we been teleporting?"

"I'm so hungry!"

Qiao Jiang habitually licked his newly filled teeth with his tongue and said while touching his stomach.

"Is this the 'Sky'?"

"It's completely different from what I imagined..."

Liang Yuxin looked around curiously, but even if she squinted her eyes, she couldn't see what was behind the gray fog.

Guan Shan stared at the stone tablet, trying to figure out who the names belonged to.

Suddenly, a chill came over him.

He turned his head, following the cold murderous intent.

Jia Ming lowered his head slightly, making it hard to see his expression, but his tense body still revealed a hint of his inner thoughts.

"Welcome, freshmen this year."

The white-haired old man suddenly spoke, attracting the attention of the whole audience.

"I am your guide, you can call me White-haired Old Man, or Old White."

Guan Shan bowed respectfully to the old man and spoke.

"Old Bai, is the place we are now the 'Sky'?"

"Where are those sleeping venerables?"

"It can't be in this stone tablet, right?"

The old man with white head stroked his beard and laughed, "This is indeed the 'Sky', but it's only a small part of it."

"The 'Sleeping Land' is hidden in the deepest part of the Sky, and it's not your destination today."

Yue Baisheng asked in confusion, "Old Bai, then we fought for these few places, didn't we come here in vain?"

"Not in vain, not in vain."

The old man with white head has a good temper and always smiles when he speaks, "What's so good about those sleeping old guys? Here, you can get more valuable rewards."

"You can get to this point, which means that you are all the strongest freshmen of this year. So, can anyone answer me, what is the difference between the fourth and sixth levels of walkers?"

Guan Shan as The only walker among the ten people spoke naturally, "A fourth-level walker can release the superpowers in his body to form a shield to resist various attacks."

"A fifth-level walker can further condense the external pressure. Depending on the strength, he can take objects from a distance or assist in combat. If the superpower reserve is sufficient, he can kill people from a hundred meters away without even moving his hands."

"A sixth-level walker can further transform the energy. The strong pressure can already carry the body into the air and fly long distances."

The old man nodded with satisfaction and said faintly, "There may be differences between individual walkers, and everyone's abilities may be strong or weak, but the basic characteristics, as Guanshan said, will not change."

"This is the rule of our world."

"So, do you know what the characteristics of the Venerable are?"

"Why is [Venerable, Irreversible] recognized by everyone?"

Here comes...

The highlight!

Everyone looked at each other, holding their breath, waiting for Lao Bai to continue.

"Because the Venerable..."

"Not following the rules."

As if amused by his own words, the white-headed old man's shoulders trembled slightly, and his eyes narrowed into crescents, making it even harder to see clearly.

"Once every awakener breaks through from the peak of the sixth level, their life form will undergo a huge change. To be frank, they have completely left the scope of human beings."

"A seventh-level Venerable can draw the energy of heaven and earth and use it for their own benefit. Even a peak sixth-level practitioner cannot smoothly operate his own supernatural power in front of the weakest Venerable, and will be taken away by the opponent."

The words of the white-headed old man made everyone in the audience stunned.

The reason why the awakened can have power beyond mortals is all due to supernatural powers. Once the supernatural power fails, except that the physical fitness is much stronger than that of mortals, there is no essential difference between them and mortals in other aspects.

What's the point of fighting...

Everyone listened quietly, for fear of missing a word.

Such information can't be bought with any money.

"An eighth-level venerable can use pure energy to reshape his body. For an eighth-level venerable, ordinary fatal injuries are just a trivial matter of consuming energy to recover."

"Except for being shot in the head or exhausting the core power in the body, broken hands and feet are not worth mentioning at all."

"This is also the most important stage for venerables."

"All venerables will keep their cultivation at the eighth level and repeatedly temper their bodies to face the next fatal crisis."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

"Lao Bai, according to what you said, those eighth-level bosses are not afraid even if their hearts are pierced, so what else can threaten them?"

Qiao Jiang really couldn't help but ask the doubts in everyone's hearts.

The white-headed man was not angry because he was interrupted. He still said unhurriedly, "Because once the Venerable reaches the ninth level, he will face the test of life and death. He must accept the test of death every moment."

"Ninth-level venerable, the boundary between the physical body and the energy body has been very blurred. Even if you don't rely on any help from the outside world, you can infinitely increase your power just by relying on your own core."

"When their power reaches a certain critical value, they will feel the call of [demigod]."

Looking at the confused expressions, the white-headed man smiled and added, "Yes, [demigods] exist."

"As long as a ninth-level venerable thinks about it, he can increase his power infinitely until he breaks through the confinement and becomes a demigod."

"or..."

"The physical body collapsed and disappeared between heaven and earth."

"It's a pity that no one can really reach that level yet. Almost all the ninth-level sages who dared to try died at the hands of their own powers, without exception."

"So all ninth-level venerables will try to avoid fighting, because once they start fighting, they will easily be swallowed up by their inner desires. Every time their strength increases by one point, they will be one step closer to death."

At this moment, Guan Shan finally understood why Master was hailed as the number one human being in the world after taking action only once in Dawn City.

It’s not like there haven’t been ninth-level bosses in this world.

But once they exerted their ninth-level combat power, they could no longer restrain their inner desires, and eventually came to an end.

The moment when the power reaches its peak is when the Venerable falls.

Being able to use combat power at will like the master without worrying about backlash...

Only this one person!
