Perfect World: Dream of the Immortal Era

Chapter 134: Grudges Forgiven



Throughout the entire process, the True Immortal from the Pan family remained calm and composed, showing no intention of intervening.

He greatly disapproved of the Ao family's heir using such dishonorable methods like releasing Soul Devouring Insects. This was the Peach Blossom Banquet, not a real battleground. Such actions in this setting were disgraceful.

Therefore, as long as the Ao family's heir was alive and did not concede, he would not interfere.

Eventually, the True Immortal from the Ao family arrived on the scene, his face dark as he took away the unconscious Ao family heir.

Before leaving, he shot a cold glance at Wang Heng on the battle stage, his eyes brimming with murderous intent.

This time, he had suffered both financially and militarily.

The descendants of two Immortal Kings had made their moves, yet neither could harm Wang Heng. Later, they even brought out ten precious Soul Devouring Insect larvae, but they were lost forever, becoming Wang Heng's spoils of war.

In the current situation, he could not bring himself to demand the return of the ten Soul Devouring Insects, leaving them as a boon for Wang Heng.

"Remember, young one, never stray from the side of the Wu Zhong Immortal King, or you will be torn to shreds in an instant," he warned coldly through sound transmission.

Unexpectedly, Wang Heng showed no fear, and directly retorted.

"Old man, you merely started cultivating a few eras before me. If we were in the same realm, I could crush you with a single finger.”

"You junior! How arrogant can you get? With just a meager Creation Realm cultivation, you dare to provoke a True Immortal?"

"Heh, after several epochs, even a pig could become a True Immortal, or even a Quasi-Immortal King. Judging by that, you are worse than a pig."

"You..."

The Ao family’s True Immortal was infuriated, not because he lacked composure, but this was the first time he had been insulted so harshly.

One must understand, with his status, wherever he went, he was greeted with praise and admiration. Even his enemies had never spoken with such contempt, comparing a True Immortal to a pig.

Therefore, he lost the demeanor expected of a True Immortal, feeling so enraged he wanted to strike down this audacious youth right then and there.

Unfortunately, with the Pan family's True Immortal present, he was destined not to succeed in his intentions.

In the end, the Ao family’s True Immortal found himself neither able to kill nor outargue the youth, and could only leave with a sullen expression.

"This battle is won by Wang Heng. Does anyone else wish to challenge?"

The Pan family's True Immortal smiled gently as he looked at the group of young talents seated under the peach tree.

This time, not a single person stepped forward to respond.

Are you kidding? If even the Nemesis of Primordial Spirits, the Soul Devouring Worm, couldn't handle Wang Heng, what use would their efforts be? Who is foolish enough to invite another defeat without reason?

After a long silence, with no one speaking up, the Pan family True Immortal stopped waiting and declared Wang Heng the final winner of this immortal elixir contest.

The supreme immortal elixir, a treasure countless beings have dreamed of, grants instant immortality. Now, it belongs to Wang Heng.

This was a genuine peach of immortality, golden in color, with an overwhelming fragrance, rich with the astonishing essence of heaven and earth and the aura of eternal life.

Wang Heng carefully placed the immortal peach into a prepared jade cauldron, ensuring none of its immortal aura leaked out.

It was indeed a true elixir of immortality, coveted even by True Immortals. Desiring even a single piece made human beings long for it even more.

At this Peach Festival, Wang Heng was fortunate to obtain one, a stroke of luck indeed.

It should be known that the Peach Garden was vast, and each level had its own exclusive area. The top ten of the Immortal Realm—representing the most dazzling beings in the human domain—more than half attended.

In this context, the Pan family True Immortal uniquely arrived at the area belonging to the Creation Realm, presenting an immortal peach as the prize. This was no mere coincidence.

Wang Heng then sealed the jade cauldron and stored it in a storage artifact. Afterward, he leapt off the battle platform, heading back to his seat amid admiring gazes.

As he passed by, he paused slightly next to Wang Heng, communicating some recent developments via telepathy.

“Concerning those ten soul-eating insect larvae, I was aware beforehand. I didn't intervene because these larvae are within the endurance range of Creation Realm beings. If your flesh was intact, blocking them wouldn’t be difficult, thus not exceeding the rules.”

The True Immortal of the Pan family had been watching carefully all this time, knowing he could not afford to shield you from this disaster without taking action.

If you were unable to fend off the attacks of the soul-devouring larvae, I would have stepped in to control them, ensuring your safety from mortal danger. However, under such circumstances, part of your soul light would inevitably fall into the hands of the Ao family, and you know well the consequences that might bring.

Ultimately, however, you have managed to overcome this tribulation through your own strength.

My clan’s ancestor holds you in high esteem; the reason this immortal peach elixir has come to be here is precisely due to your potential. Nonetheless, the situation in the Immortal Domain is intricate, and the Pan family must establish alliances here. We would certainly not risk offending immortal king families for a single mortal being; I trust you understand.

The Pan family True Immortal's words were pragmatic. As impressive as Wang Heng's performance was, the Pan family was bound to align with the established Immortal Kings, having already secured their standing, rather than take chances on the uncertain.

Especially when considering that Wang Heng's backers now face the greatest crisis in countless eras, it was impossible for Pan Wang to openly side with Wang Heng.

Offering an immortal peach as a prize and placing it in the confines of the Fate Realm already demonstrated a favor to him.

It should be noted that in the current Peach Garden, there was no shortage of the top ten from the Immortal Domain.

Wang Heng nodded, harboring no ill will against the Pan family over this. With a strategic perspective, he understood their actions were entirely appropriate, with no objections.

After all, he was not some chosen one beloved by all; even Immortal Kings would not deplete their resources for him.

“Thank you for your honesty, elder. In fact, Wang Heng never blamed others with a ‘the heavens are against me’ mentality. Strengthening oneself is an eternal truth.”

"Understanding this principle makes me look at you a little higher, as expected, the Hunyuan Immortal King's judgment is never wrong," the True Immortal from the Pan family spoke softly, giving Wang Heng a satisfied smile.

Wang Heng was taken aback, instantly realizing the other was referring to the Hunyuan Immortal King's gamble on him.

In a fleeting moment, the True Immortal of the Pan family had already departed, leaving only a group of youthful prodigies behind.

After several fierce battles, everyone had witnessed Wang Heng's formidable strength. In the realm of creation, he was a league above the rest, only the descendants of Immortal Kings could withstand a blow from him. Facing him in a few moves, True Immortal descendants would be completely overpowered.

Remembering their previous hostility towards Wang Heng when he first arrived, many felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles, drenched in sweat.

"Congratulations, Brother Wang, on claiming the top prize and acquiring the supreme sacred treasure, the Immortal Peach Elixir. The path to greatness awaits you. If there were any misunderstandings earlier, I hope Brother Wang will not take it to heart," at this moment, an Immortal King descendant stood up, raising his cup towards Wang Heng, both congratulating him and apologizing for his earlier hostility.

Showing such respect, Wang Heng would not refuse their goodwill; after all, he had no personal enmity with these prodigies, and the earlier animosity was merely a product of ideological conflicts between the Immortal Domain and the Primal Ancient Realm.

In the future, these people were likely to become True Immortals or quasi-Immortal Kings, holding significant positions within their respective families. Wang Heng had no reason to make enemies with everyone; befriending them was far better than sowing discord.

So, he stood up with a smile, raising the celestial brew on the table, and gestured in return.

"Thank you. The earlier misunderstandings are trivial. Your words have already made me forget them."

"Haha, I didn't expect Brother Wang to be so amiable, quite different from the rumors. Meeting today feels like reuniting old friends, only to realize that it was the work of some mischievous hearts stirring conflicts on purpose."

Then, the two of them raised their heads and drank the divine brew, their previous grievances dissolving with laughter.

Witnessing this, the other descendants of the Immortal Kings also stood up one after another, imitating the former.
