Chapter 1969: Beg Me!

Originally, everyone was on the same starting line.

Although Song Yu was strong, no one bought into it.

They all felt that as long as they got a bit of luck, breaking through to True God Triple Heaven would be a piece of cake.

But now, without forming a team, they couldn't even get out the door—how could they play?

Against these war spirits, with Song Yu's strength, he naturally contributed the most.

Fighting alone was no different from seeking death.

So now, everyone needed Song Yu's help, and the situation was naturally different.

The expressions on everyone's faces were ugly; Song Yu taking fifty percent of the benefits was too harsh.

"Hey, since you're unwilling, I'll find someone else to team up with," Song Yu said, turning to leave.

Guo Jingyang's face changed, and he said, "Fine, I agree!"

"I... I agree too!"

Song Yu's tactic of letting them off the hook quickly yielded results.

"Heh, since that's the case, let's settle it. I get fifty percent of the treasures, and you divide the remaining fifty percent among yourselves," Song Yu said with a smile.

The others looked grim, clearly very frustrated.

The more treasures one obtained, the stronger their fortune naturally became.

With Song Yu's aptitude, if he got so many treasures, he might even break through to Imperial Soaring Qi.

As for Song Yu, he certainly didn't want to team up with others.

Teaming up with strong cultivators from other imperial cities, he naturally wouldn't get as many treasures, nor could he lead the team.

These chosen ones would rather be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix—how could they be willing to submit to others?

Thus, these chosen ones formed circles of various sizes.

Of the nine from the Extreme Fortune Imperial Capital, seven quickly announced they would join Song Yu's team, leaving only Ye Yuan and Liu Yi.

"Hey, old man, are you planning to go out alone?" Song Yu looked at Liu Yi with a half-smile.

Liu Yi gave a lecherous grin and said, "How could I? I... I'll join Young Master Song's team."

Song Yu nodded, then looked at Ye Yuan with the same half-smile, his face full of mockery. "This young master of Imperial Soaring Qi probably won't join our team, right?"

"Imperial Soaring Qi? That kid actually has Imperial Soaring Qi!"

"Heh, what's the use of Imperial Soaring Qi? With his strength, even with Imperial Soaring Qi, he'll die without a trace if he goes out. Doesn't he still need to beg?"

...

Song Yu's words immediately drew a lot of attention.

After all, among these chosen ones, Imperial Soaring Qi was extremely rare compared to Imperial Extreme Qi.

This ratio was similar to that between the Heavenly Sovereign Realm and the Heavenly Emperor Realm.

Out of a hundred Heavenly Sovereigns, not one might break through to the Heavenly Emperor Realm.

For Imperial Soaring Qi, if one's strength was great, naturally no one would say anything.

But Ye Yuan's strength was too poor, and everyone watched him with interest, eager to see him humiliated.

This was also a kind of resentment against the rich.

Song Yu sneered inwardly. So what if his fortune was high? So what if he could refine pills?

In this Ancient God Battlefield, everything came down to strength!

Once he obtained treasures and broke through to Imperial Soaring Qi, he would leave this kid far behind.

What was there to be arrogant about!

At the Sage Breeze Pavilion, he had lost all face.

With so many big shots present back then, he naturally dared not say anything.

But now the situation had reversed, and Ye Yuan needed his help, so he naturally wanted to toy with him.

Beg me!

Beg me!

Whether I agree or not depends on my mood!

Song Yu was overjoyed inside.

Everyone's gaze fell on Ye Yuan, wondering if he would lower his head.

Ye Yuan smiled and said, "That's right, I plan to act alone. You go ahead."

Everyone was stunned. Act alone?

Even if he wanted to save face, did he have to go this far?

Hadn't he seen those people chopped to pieces just now?

A string of question marks appeared over everyone's heads; they were all stunned by Ye Yuan's words.

Song Yu was first taken aback, then laughed derisively. "Act alone? Heh, our Imperial Soaring Qi is truly domineering! Hahaha..."

The others also burst into laughter, thinking Ye Yuan was being stubborn and suffering for it.

Unless he didn't go out, if he did, acting alone would surely leave him dead without a trace.

Ye Yuan just smiled and said nothing.

Seeing this expression, Song Yu felt as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly. He snorted coldly, "I'll see how you act alone! If you have the guts, don't hide here and not go out!"

The team formation was soon settled, mostly grouped by imperial capital.

However, a few weaker ones formed a small team.

Then, one by one, the teams began to leave the circle and advance into the depths of the Ancient God Battlefield.

As soon as they left the circle, countless war spirits swarmed in.

But these chosen ones were all quite strong, and working together, they naturally had no fear of these war spirits.

Song Yu glanced at Ye Yuan and sneered, "Son of Imperial Soaring Qi, why haven't you gone out? Scared? Heh, beg me now, and I might consider taking you along."

Ye Yuan smiled and said calmly, "Thank you for your kindness, Young Master Song, but no need."

With that, Ye Yuan leaped and directly exited the circle.

The people from the Extreme Fortune Imperial Capital changed color, staring at the scene in shock.

Suicidal face-saving?

This... this was too much, wasn't it?

This wasn't just being stubborn and suffering; it was being stubborn and really asking for death!

"Is this kid out of his mind?"

"What Imperial Soaring Qi? He's an utter fool!"

"What's the point of this pride? He's just throwing his life away!"

...

The Extreme Fortune crowd wore mocking expressions, completely disapproving of Ye Yuan's actions.

Only Liu Yi squinted, staring intently at Ye Yuan's figure, lost in thought.

Suddenly, his gaze sharpened, and he revealed a look of horror.

Not only him, but the others also changed from mockery to shock.

Especially Song Yu, whose expression turned extremely ugly.

As expected, as soon as Ye Yuan came out, he was quickly surrounded by a sea of war spirits.

But Ye Yuan didn't even bother to defend himself; he just strolled along.

The attacks of those Heavenly God Realm war spirits landed on him without any effect—they didn't even tickle!

Ye Yuan, with his perfect Six Revolutions Golden Body, had once shattered a True God Mystic Treasure with a single punch.

With his freakish defense, the attacks of mere Heavenly God Realm war spirits meant nothing to him.

"Th-this... what's going on?"

"This defense is too monstrous, isn't it?"

"No, he's a body cultivator! His physical body has reached the Six Revolutions Golden Body; mere Heavenly God Realm attacks can't harm him!"

...

The chosen ones who hadn't yet left the circle saw this and were left speechless with shock.

The defense of body cultivators was always extremely monstrous.

Although these cultivators had all reached the True God Realm, their physical bodies might not even match a Heavenly God Realm body cultivator.

Their defense relied entirely on divine energy protection.

One or two Heavenly God Realm cultivators naturally couldn't harm them.

But when there were many, and True God Realm cultivators were also entangled, their protective divine energy would be gradually worn down.

Once it weakened to a certain extent, attacks from Heavenly God Realm cultivators would start to hurt them.
