Chapter 1838 - 516: Challenging the Heng Guang Master, Final Showdown at the Cosmic Peak!

"The Arena Master of the Invincible Level can keep avoiding the Cosmic Peak challenge?"

Lu Changsheng asked.

"He can keep avoiding it. If no one challenges, then the Master of Heng Guang gets a bye."

"Of course, if you keep avoiding it, you can always remain the Invincible Level Arena Master. But you must still follow the rules, and the King Level experts below can challenge you."

Lu Changsheng understood.

In fact, reaching the Invincible Level is already the end point for many people.

They can keep 'latching onto' the identity of the Invincible Arena Master.

As for challenging the Cosmic Peak, perhaps some have the ambition to become the new Cosmic Peak.

But most people don't have such thoughts.

They just want the Cosmic Peak expert to proactively advance to the Second Realm, and new Cosmic Peak experts to be selected from the Invincible Level.

This has a higher chance of success than challenging a Cosmic Peak expert.

Lu Changsheng knew Fang Chuan was considering this for him.

He could wait a hundred years to avoid the Master of Heng Guang.

By then, with Lu Changsheng's strength, he had a great chance of emerging from numerous Invincible Level Arena Masters as the new Cosmic Peak.

Yet Lu Changsheng was unwilling.

He could weigh the pros and cons, but he couldn't deceive his own mind.

Did he care about the Cosmic Peak title?

Actually, Lu Changsheng didn't care at all.

What he cared about were the opponents!

The stronger the opponent, the more it excites Lu Changsheng.

Only by surpassing strong opponents and ascending to the Cosmic Peak step by step, is it the true Cosmic Peak!

Even stepping on the 'Old King' to the top, that is the truly valuable Cosmic Peak.

"No, I don't want to miss the Master of Heng Guang!"

"Brother Fang, please help me arrange the challenge against the Master of Heng Guang!"

Lu Changsheng said calmly, but his tone was firm and resolute!

Fang Chuan looked at Lu Changsheng.

He understood Lu Changsheng.

Precisely because he understood, Fang Chuan knew that Lu Changsheng was serious.

And once Lu Changsheng had decided on something, no amount of persuasion would work.

"Alright, I will arrange it for you."

"Once everything is arranged, there will be a full year of warm-up time."

"You can also take this year to prepare thoroughly."

Fang Chuan reminded him.

Lu Changsheng nodded, and then Fang Chuan left.

Arranging for Lu Changsheng to challenge the Master of Heng Guang is actually quite easy.

In this situation, there was absolutely no one among the strong who would challenge Heng Guang alongside Lu Changsheng.

Therefore, Lu Changsheng's opponent was solely the Master of Heng Guang!

As the news of Lu Changsheng challenging the Master of Heng Guang spread, it immediately caused a sensation across the entire Cosmic Peak.

"What, someone wants to challenge the Master of Heng Guang?"

"How is that possible?"

"How could the Master of Heng Guang be challenged?"

"The Master of Heng Guang has consecutively claimed the Cosmic Peak title for thirty-six times, for three thousand six hundred years, and this time, the Master of Heng Guang has announced it would be his last time guarding the arena, yet someone dares to challenge him?"

"Who exactly is challenging the Master of Heng Guang?"

"It seems to be Lu Changsheng of Flying Dragon Mountain..."

Countless people were shocked upon hearing this news.

The intimidation of the Master of Heng Guang was well-known to all.

In the first thousand years, the Master of Heng Guang was often challenged.

But in the following two thousand six hundred years, almost no one dared to challenge him.

Even if they did, it ended in failure.

Everyone thought that this time the Master of Heng Guang would likely have another bye, then he would move on to impact the Second Realm, and after a century, countless Invincible Level experts would battle it out, eventually deciding the new Cosmic Peak.

Who could have expected that someone would dare to challenge the Master of Heng Guang at this time?

Is this madness?

But as more people began to understand Lu Changsheng,

they no longer wondered.

Lu Changsheng's deeds in the roles of Main General, Overlord, and King were all dug out.

Only now do they realize, Lu Changsheng might truly be a 'madman.'

Only Lu Changsheng would dare challenge the Master of Heng Guang now.

But Lu Changsheng's madness was only on the arenas of King, Overlord, and so on.

Once he became an Invincible Arena Master, Lu Changsheng seemed to no longer be mad but became very rational and cautious.

Why suddenly challenge the Master of Heng Guang now?

Does he have some confidence, thinking he can defeat the Master of Heng Guang?

At this moment, the most shocked was none other than the Master of Heng Guang.

The Master of Heng Guang was in his Cave Mansion.

Someone notified him of this news.

"Heng Guang, someone is challenging you."

"Who is it?"

"Lu Changsheng of Flying Dragon Mountain; here is the information about Lu Changsheng..."

The Master of Heng Guang's friend informed him of this news.

The Master of Heng Guang kept reviewing the information on Lu Changsheng.

"Interesting."

"For a Realm Master to reach this point, it isn't easy."

"But his choice to challenge me will certainly be a mistake. Even if he is a Realm Master and wouldn't die in the Great Universe, once he loses, his mind will be clouded, making it difficult to reach the Second Realm in the future."

The Master of Heng Guang shook his head.

He wasn't arrogant, as he still researched his opponents for each match.

However, he didn't consider Lu Changsheng as a worthy opponent.

No matter how much external talk there was about Lu Changsheng's Talent,

a Realm Master wishing to claim the Cosmic Peak title?

Since ancient times,

and in all the years the Cosmic Peak has appeared, no Realm Master has ever claimed the Cosmic Peak title.

Especially when Lu Changsheng's opponent is none other than the Master of Heng Guang.

The Master of Heng Guang deemed himself a top contender among historic Cosmic Peaks!

Lu Changsheng wanting to step on his name to ascend to the top and claim the Cosmic Peak title was misguided.

"Heng Guang, this is your last time guarding the arena, don't let your guard down."

"Actually, you could have attempted the Second Realm last time; why delay it till now?"

His friend felt it was a pity.

"Are you worried I might lose?"

The Master of Heng Guang shook his head.

He knew his friend worried for him and meant well.

But if he could lose, he wouldn't have reached today.

Without an invincible heart, how could one seamlessly impact the Second Realm?

The Master of Heng Guang didn't want to gamble on luck to impact the Second Realm.

Last time, the success rate was only sixty percent.

But this time, if he successfully defended, he was confident the success rate for impacting the Second Realm would increase to seventy percent!

Stronger opponents stimulate his potential and keep granting him massive Qi Fortune.

This was immensely beneficial for the Master of Heng Guang's attempt to impact the Second Realm.

Therefore, the Master of Heng Guang wasn't worried about Lu Changsheng.

Instead, he was very pleased.

If every time someone challenged him instead of him passing by default,

the Master of Heng Guang would have long since advanced to the Second Realm, no need to wait until now.

"Rest assured, I won't lose! I am the Master of Heng Guang, the Cosmic Peak for three thousand six hundred consecutive years, unmatched below the Second Realm!"

The Master of Heng Guang's tone exuded powerful confidence.

"As long as you're confident, that's good."

"However, I will still gather information on Lu Changsheng for you, with one year at your disposal to prepare fully."

Thus, the Master of Heng Guang's friend left the Cave Mansion, starting to gather information on Lu Changsheng.

Day by day, time passed.

As the Cosmic Peak warmed up, it caused a sensation throughout the Great Universe.

This time Lu Changsheng's challenge of the Master of Heng Guang was undoubtedly the most anticipated battle in three thousand years!

Even before the battle, Lu Changsheng could feel a massive amount of Qi Fortune gathering and continuously pouring into him.

Even the warm-up brought this much Qi Fortune.

If Lu Changsheng actually defeated the Master of Heng Guang, what terrifying amount of Qi Fortune would he gather?

That would be unimaginable!

In the blink of an eye, a year passed.

Lu Changsheng opened his eyes.

"The time has come..."

Lu Changsheng rose and left the Cave Mansion.

His mind was as still as ancient waters.

Accompanied by Fang Chuan and Lin Qingluan, he headed straight for the Cosmic Peak arena!
