Chapter 273 - Ren Shuang’s Cultivation

Prince Dante stared intently at the demon soldier’s corpse. He carefully inspected the demon’s body with his true essence to checked if it has still a remaining breath. He only sighed in relief when he sensed that it was no longer breathing.

The prince recalled the last words of the demon soldier and he could not help but feel a bit of admiration towards its unyielding character and bravery.

"Are all the demons like that? If that is the case, then we’re going to be fucked up really bad..." Prince Dante muttered to himself.

Swoosh. Swoosh. Swoosh.

A few applicants arrived at the scene and witnessed the collapsed body of the demon. They then gazed at the lone Prince Dante with a surprised look.

Although the demon was already severely injured, it would be troublesome to defeat it. However, this man right here had actually beaten it alone!

"Friend, did you defeat this demon alone?!" Someone asked with a shocked tone.

The other applicants stared at the prince with admiration.

Prince Dante recovered from his stupor and glanced at the other applicants with a calm smile.

"Thanks to everyone’s effort in weakening this demon, I finally managed to slay it." He uttered, but his words made them inhale a breath of cold air. None of them were capable of defeating such a creature even in its most sorry state!

"Don’t be humble, friend! That thing is at least a peak 7th-rank Emperor realm being. Killing it is a very tough task, but you’ve done it on your own!" Jon, who was among the applicants said as he flashed a thumbs up to the prince.

Prince Dante smiled at his words.

"I will remember everyone who took part in this battle. When we come out of this place, I will invite you to my place for a drink!" He said.

Jon and the other applicants felt relieved for some reason. Even if killing this demon might not give them points, they were still happy to befriend this man in front of them. Some of them were able to recognize the prince’s clothing and they were happy to have befriended a prince of the Silver Wing Empire.

"Hahah! Good! I won’t decline this invitation!" Jon smiled at the prince, while the other applicants also showed similar reactions.

Among the crowd, a poorly-dressed little girl stared at Jon with a relieved look. This girl is Sylphie and she had just arrived at the scene. She was worried about Jon and his friends, so she immediately rushed towards this place when she sensed the disturbance.

"This guy is so strong! He actually defeated this demon alone? Who is he?" Sylphie muttered silently as she stared at Prince Dante. She could see that his clothes were of great quality, so she was certain that he was of noble birth.

"Since they are safe, I should leave here and search for more tokens." She said after making sure that Jon and his two friends were not injured.

Lu Sulan was slightly surprised when she saw how the applicants managed to defeat the demon soldier. She was the one who suggested placing a demon soldier in the World of Illusion to test the applicant’s heart and teamwork.

When she first suggested it to Jiu Shen, she did not think that the applicants would be able to defeat it. However, the scene in front of her proved her wrong. She had underestimated Prince Dante’s group.

Although the demon took its own life at the very end, she still remembered all the faces of the applicants who joined the battle. She was planning to give them a bonus for their performance.

"Master intentionally told the Tree of Illusion to make the demon’s character to be like this when he heard your suggestion. He wanted the applicants to know that the demons must not be underestimated." Long Meili said while looking at the screen.

"Master’s wisdom is boundless. He gave this kind of hint to remind everyone that there is still a violent species of beast lurking at the sidelines. I suggested this idea, but I did not think ahead as the master did." Lu Sulan said in admiration.

She then stared at Long Meili and asked. "Sister Meili, do you think the master would help them if the demons will attack the Profound Dragon Continent?"

Long Meili wanted to say yes when she heard the question, but the word was stuck on her throat she recalled Jiu Shen’s unpredictable personality. In the end, she could only shake her head.

"I don’t know. Even after having close contact with the master, I still have no idea what’s going on inside his mind. He’s like the ocean, deep and unreadable..."

Lu Sulan’s lips arched upwards when she heard the answer. She totally agreed to Long Meili’s words, but she hoped that Jiu Shen won’t sit idly when that time ever comes.

"However, if his wine business will be compromised, I’m certain that he won’t remain at the sidelines." Long Meili added with certainty in her voice.

Lu Sulan was a bit surprised to heard and she chuckled at the thought of it. She was right! ’Master would never allow others to ruin his wine business!’

Jiu Shen gently caressed the face of Ice who was deeply asleep. He then stared ahead and called out. "Ren Shuang."

Swoosh!

A silhouette stood before him in an instant!

"Master." The man bowed his head respectfully.

"How’s your progress in breaking through to the Nascent God Realm?" Jiu Shen asked as he looked at Ren Shuang.

Ren Shuang felt slightly nervous at the question, but he still replied calmly. "Master, give me a week. I will reach the Nascent God Realm by then."

Jiu Shen nodded his head at his words. He had taken a look at Ren Shuang’s dantian through his spiritual vision and he saw that the man was just lacking a little bit more to break through his current realm.

"System, open the Spirit World for me." Jiu Shen said in his mind.

A wooden door suddenly appeared in front of Ren Shuang, making him unconsciously take a step back.

"Get inside the Spirit World. The true essence inside is more abundant and the environment right there will aid your breakthrough." Jiu Shen said.

Ren Shuang nodded his head and bowed towards Jiu Shen. "Yes, master."

He then pushed the door open without hesitation.

When Ren Shuang was already inside the Spirit World, the wooden door vanished. Jiu Shen was again left alone in his room.

"With Ren Shuang taking charge here, I will be more at ease when I go to the Divine Beast Continent..." Jiu Shen muttered to himself.
