Chapter 945: Selection and Growth

The man’s face sank, and he had a look of rage on his face.

He said in a low voice, “Divine Spell, Release Space!”

The space around him all turned into black holes. The strong man’s attack hit straight at the black hole, causing his whole self to go into the black hole.

Space restored itself, and the strong man was gone. It was unknown where he ended up in.

After that, the man did not bother looking at the drunkard at all. Instead, he turned and disappeared from the spot, escaping through space itself.

However, his figure just disappeared when a wine sword slashed through the skies, forcing him out.

After that, sword after sword flew out front of the gourd. The power of the supreme being circulated everywhere. It had the power to destroy everything. It could pierce any form of Wisdom, even the Wisdom of space. It caused the man to have nowhere to hide.

“Space Solidify!”

The man pointed forward, and the power of Wisdom surged out. The drunkard stopped on the spot as the space around him solidified.

“Wine is never-ending, and sword intent is like a dragon!”

The drunkard casually recited a spell and the wine front he gourd shot out, falling onto the wine sword. It cause the sword to grow bigger and bigger, finally forming a massive wine sword. The sharpness of the sword pierced through space itself, breaking through any restrictions as it headed right at the man!

“Spatial leap!”

The man’s expression sank as he disappeared from the spot.

However, he noticed that the Wisdom of space around him were thrown into chaos His spell that could transcend thousands of miles in just one thought was suddenly only able to transverse a hundred meters.

Furthermore, when he appeared, the space around him exploded. Two hands shot out, ripping through space at pounced right at him!

The strong man ripped a hole through his space and returned.

“Space Solidify!” the man raised his arms and continued.

Yet, this time he merely managed to get the strong man to stop for a moment. The fist continued moving forward, breaking through the spatial defenses in front of him as it fell on the man. It sent the man flying in a rain of blood.

At the same time, the drunkard’s wine swords fell on the man as well. It pierced through his chess and seemed intent on eliminating the man’s lifeforce.

At that final moment, the man spat out a mouthful of blood. The space around him rippled as he suddenly disappeared.

The drunkard raised an eyebrow as he looked around, saying regretfully, “What a pity! He ran away.”

“The Space Disrupter is a supreme being who’s mastered the Wisdom of space. Few can stop him from running away if he wants to,” The strong man said with a smile, “It’s already quite good that we managed to beat him up to this degree. He must have run far away. He won’t cause any more trouble.”

The drunkard looked at him coldly, “You’ve finally dared to show up. Have you decided to stop hiding?”

“Back then, my Dao Heart crumbled. It’s humiliating. Don’t bring it up anymore,” The strong man put his hands up and sighed.

After that, he looked at Yang Jian and Xiao Chengfeng, “New protectors? It’s a pity that they’re a bit weak.”

The drunkard said, “If you knew that they only used a few days to reach their current heights, you wouldn’t say that.”

“A- A few years?!”

The strong man widened his eyes, wanting to say something before taking a deep breath, “If it’s because of that person, then it’s quite normal. However, he went through selection back then, has he gone for growth now?’

Yang Jian was confused at that, and could not help but ask, “Senior, what does selection and growth mean?”

“Wisdom is shapeless and unending. No one can touch Wisdom, other than that calamity… Back then, corruption descended, and Wisdom was corrupted. It was the first time everyone managed to feel Wisdom. Wisdom was able to communicate with everyone.”

The strong man paused before continuing, “A the same time, Wisdom chose out the few of them that were the strongest back then, passing down some amazing abilities. It caused everyone’s skills to improve rapidly. Choosing the strongest from back then, wasn’t that selection?”

“As for you… It chose you when you were still weak, and nurtured you into supreme beings. That’s obviously growth.”

Xiao Chengfeng said, “It looks like Wisdom is afraid of being betrayed again. It feels like the selection isn’t reliable, and that growing is better.”

The strong man was speechless.

The drunkard nodded and said, “That’s precisely it. The supreme beings back then were practically all blessed by Wisdom, it’s just that they were too selfish. In the end, those who did not choose to betray Wisdom chose to escape, leaving behind a calamity.”

Back then, the Unrivaled was blessed by Wisdom as well. However, at the battle against the gray mist, the Unrivaled did not even appear. All of that caused Wisdom to not only fail to suppress the corruption but almost saw the destruction of the Flames of Wisdom as well. If the protectors back then didn’t sacrifice their lives to protect it, the situation right now would be even worse.

Xiao Chengfeng said resolutely, “There’s no way I’ll betray Wisdom. I won’t hide either!”

“I as well!” Yang Jian immediately said.

The strong man sighed and said, “Don’t be so sure. Everyone is usually full of confidence before they see the true horrors. Only after you see it will you know if you can beat the feat.”

The drunkard interrupted their conversation, “Let’s hurry up and find the Undying. I’m afraid he’ll die if we delay things.”

“Honestly, if he still doesn’t die this time I have to mock him a little,” The strong man let out a laugh as they continued deeper.

Since the Undying sealed the area, the volcanoes around them were very quiet. On top of that, all of the volcanoes looked more or less the same. They were forced to look around one by one, not knowing where the Undying buried himself.

“Come, come here!”

Seemingly because everyone was so slow, that voice was heard again. At the same time, low rumblings could be heard from an even deeper volcano. A cold killing intent soared into the skies. There seemed to be a terrifying existence trying to break through the volcano.

“Stay here and don’t move,” The drunkard said to Yang Jian and Xiao Chengfeng before moving with the strong man, flying toward the volcano.
