A large number of practitioners had gathered around the Immortal Mountain. Everyone wanted to see how the battle would end between the Severity Tribe and the Immortal King.
The moment the people saw the white- robed figure appear, they all got incredibly excited! The white-robed Immortal King, the unrivalled being of the world! At that moment, the white- robed Immortal King had shown up to the fight, but the people of the Severity Tribe had not! Henry stood in the air with his hands clasped behind his back. He did not say anything and waited silently.
A gentle breeze blew by, and ripples appeared on the surface of the sea. Fish would occasionally leap out of the sea. Time went by quietly.
Henry was still waiting, and so were the many practitioners who had gathered to watch the battle. It was getting dark, people were beginning to wonder if the Severity Tribe were too frightened to show up. After all, the powerful experts they had sent earlier were killed by the Immortal King with just one finger. Although the Severity Tribe was very well-known in the myths, in reality, what could they do to fight against the Immortal King?
The Immortal Kings of the Human race were known for their invincibility! The sky grew increasingly darker, the appointed time of their fight was about to pass at that time.
Some practitioners who had gathered here had already left. They had already guessed how it would end, believing that the Severity Tribe had chickened out.
Henry was still standing in the air, with his hands behind his back, with an indifferent expression on his face.
Just when everyone believed that the day would end peacefully, a voice cut through the night sky.
"Immortal King of the Human race, you are merely living in a good era. As long as you exist at the same era as us, the people of my sect shall never fear you!"
This voice boomed across the night sky. However, the one who spoke did not show himself. It was apparent that he was afraid of being instantly annihilated by the Immortal King.
Upon hearing such words, Henry did not say anything, because it was clear enough to him that the people understood that no extra explanations were needed for that matter. The Severity Tribe was just making an excuse because they could not defeat the Immortal King.
There were so many great beings from the ancient times, but only the Immortal King was able to live on up to that era, yet they could only come up with the excuse that the Immortal King was only living in a good era, which was quite a pathetic excuse to come up with.
The person who spoke for the Severity Tribe also knew that very well. He then said, "Immortal King of the Human race, if you really are as invincible as you say, how about we let you battle someone at the same level as you are! Would you dare to accept this challenge?"
Upon hearing the person from the Severity Tribe say that, many practitioners began mocking him for being shameless.
Back then, when they saw themselves as superior than others in their cultivation, they used that as a fact to crush others. Now that they have come across someone they are unable to defeat, they have the audacity to ask that person to pick someone his own size.
Just how much more shameless could they be?
Henry stood in the night sky and did not answer.
The person from Severity Tribe did not give up and continued asking, "Immortal King of the Human Tribe, do you dare to accept?"
The bright moon in the sky became Henry's background, his hair fluttered even though there was not a breeze. He said, "What wouldn't I not?"
Henry wanted to establish an image of invincibility, and because of that, he naturally could not refuse the challenge.
"Very well then!"
The person from the Severity Tribe sneered. "Then let us lower ourselves and fight in the stage of the Divine Cloud!"
"Divine Cloud?"
"I object."
Henry shook his head.
Commotion erupted from the surrounding practitioners. There were two pieces of news that excited them. The first, was that after fifteen days, a clone of the Immortal King would fight a great battle against an expert from the Severity Tribe.
The second, was that another inheritance was about to be unearthed! The Fuyuan inheritance, it was still unknown what it would contain.
These two pieces of news spread across the civilisation like wildfire. It could be imaginable just how major the unearthing of the inheritance would be.
In the past, people knew of the inheritance after it had been unearthed, therefore many were unable to make it at the exact moment. There were also people who were too far away from it, or those who were held back by some matters, which caused them to just give up.
However, it was different this time. Everyone now knew about it 15 days before the event. This would give all of them time to prepare. The inheritances were something everyone desired.
And this time, it was not only the unearthing of the inheritance, but also the battle between the Immortal King and the Severity Tribe. That was the more anticipated event. Even if they were not interested in the inheritance, they would still make their way to watch that battle, it was a battle of two different levels! If they missed it, they might never have a chance to witness something like that again.
Everyone was looking forward to it.
Henry returned to Immortal Mountain and entered the Divine Palace.
"Looks like picking you was the right choice." The master of the Divine Palace said, "You have an invincible heart. To fight a Divine Cloud being while you are at the Divine Shore, no one has ever done that."
Battling at two different levels was not something that had never happened before. A battle of the Divine Sea and the Divine Bridge, or the Divine Bridge against the Divine Shore, those have happened before. However, that was all just a difference in power, in the battle between the Divine Bridge and the Divine Shore, the Divine Shore did not possess a Divine Power. When one had developed a Divine Power, then the difference was not simply based on power, but also in the understanding of the paths.
However, at that moment, Henry was up against a being at the stage of the Divine Cloud! Without a doubt, the Severity Tribe would definitely send someone at the late-stage of Divine Cloud to face him.
Plus, Henry had already used all of his trump cards in the battle against the early-stage Divine Cloud expert. The battle against the late-stage Divine Cloud expert was a completely different concept.
