Chapter 637 - 636: Can’t Afford to Lose
Chapter 637: Chapter 636: Can’t Afford to Lose
As the competition progressed, though Qian remained indifferent on the surface, internally, he was seething, wishing to overturn the table and destroy the whole of Jiuzhou right then and there.
Never before had Bahuang suffered such a massive setback.
The mortal group, the Qi Cultivation group, the Foundation Establishment group, the Golden Core group – eleven matches in total and not a single victory!
“I need to keep calm. Great plans can be disrupted by small setbacks. Jiuzhou will inevitably become the focus of the Immortal Realm. Destruction is inevitable. There’s no need to disrupt the grand scheme of things due to continuous embarrassments. The three Immortal elders have not yet responded, so I must endeavor to endure…”
Assuring himself of this, Qian knew that the real victor would be the one who laughed last.
“In the Nascent Soul group, Jiuzhou has won all of the eleven matches!” The judge, in a nodulated voice, announced the results of the competition.
The judge was Ji Zhi’s uncle, who had once left the Great Zhou Empire with Jiang Li, encountering the unassuming Pure Heart maiden.
“The Divinity Transformation Stage competition is starting, representing Jiuzhou is…Wu Zhi.”
With prayer beads in hand, Wu Zhi stood on the stage reciting Amitābha Buddha; As he rested quietly on the stage, it seemed as if time and space had frozen around him.
Seeing Wu Zhi, Qian thought he should have an easy win.
This monk is only at the early stage of Divinity Transformation. No matter if he is the master of Mount Sumeru, the match depends on combat effectiveness, not Buddhist Law.
Jin Yan, you’re up.” Qian sent out his strongest Divinity Transformation fighter, who would do whatever it takes to win this match.
Jin Yan, the True Disciple of Qian, was at the peak of the Divinity Transformation stage. He was the favored among those in Bahuaung, acquiring both wind and rain when he wanted, rightfully considered the strongest Divinity Transformation stage individual.
Jin Yan climbed onto the stage with a confident smile. The turning point for the game would start with this round.
“Such profound Buddhist Law!” Jin Yan was shocked. As his gaze met Wu Zhi’s, he felt waves of scriptures in his mind.
In Bahuang, there were no more Buddhists. Jin Yan had only read about Buddhist tactics in ancient books.
“Interesting, it’s precisely this way, it will demonstrate my strength!” Jin Yan was still not afraid. In his eyes, the foundation would decide everything; compared to a bun, Buddhist Law, which encouraged people’s kindness, was of no importance.
“Let the competition begin.”
A crowing sound reverberated through the clouds. The sun broke through the thick clouds and fell on Jin Yan’s face. Jin Yan’s blood boiled, and the Sun True Fire rose from his body.
The Sun True Fire ignited the Spiritual Energy, turning the entire ring into a fire field.
Jin Yan was not a human but a Golden Crow.
“My Sun True Fire, anything it comes into contact with will burn – Spiritual Energy, Spiritual Treasures, flesh bodies… nothing can escape complete incineration!”
Jin Yan laughed conceitedly, his victory within grasp. Right away, he used his strongest move to awe Jiuzhou.
However, Wu Zhi hadn’t even batted an eyelid. Murmuring something softly under his breath, a massive figure emerged behind him, effortlessly blocking the sun.
Despite the figure’s vague appearance, a shadow extended its hand and forcibly pushed down.
Under this force, all things evolved and perished incessantly. Whether it was the Sun True Fire or the Golden Crow bloodline, all were suppressed.
A mouthful of golden blood was spat out by Jin Yan, suppressed to the point where he had no opportunity to fight back at all.
All his proud methods had failed!
Jiang Li, dressed in a black robe, had a peculiar look on his face.
He was also familiar with the vague figure; it resembled Daoist Ancestor.
“Did the Daoist Ancestor wake up?” Bai Hongtu recognized his ancestor too. This was an incredible event.
“No, it seems that Wu Zhi has obtained some methods from Daoist Ancestor.” Jiang Li shook his head. If Daoist Ancestor had awakened, he couldn’t have been so silent.
“Daoist Ancestor will have to separate from Wu Zhi’s soul using the method of beheading his three corpses, so he naturally has to let Wu Zhi learn his methods. How else would he carry out the ‘beheading the three corpses’ method?”
“That makes sense.”
The Divinity Transformation group is essentially the ‘players’ for the position of Human Emperor. When Yuan Wuxing appeared, the five-colored Divine Light was developed to a minor degree and it could dissolve all spells. Had he not be careful with his powers, his opponent would have perished with no remains.
When Qin Luan appeared, the Qi from his five organs gathered into five thunders. Resplendent thunder light transformed into a weapon that descended, causing a loud explosion, which sent the opponents flying with missing arms and legs.
The Child of Seven Kills repeatedly shouted the word “kill.” With every shout, a sword light spewed from his mouth and punctured the opponent’s Dantian.
Yu Youxian originally intended to go easy on the opponent, but after being provoked several times and seeing the lustful thoughts in the opponent’s eyes, Yu Youxian couldn’t take it anymore. She cast spells of Earth-prison and Stone-to-Gold, and turned her opponent into gold with one breath of Dao technique.
On the surface, Li Nian’er only seemed in the early stage of Divinity Transformation, but each of her moves reflected the skills that only those in the Body Integration Realm could use. This makes her equivalent to the early stage of the Body Integration Realm, which contradicts the norm and is beyond explanation.
“Hmm?” Jiang Li noticed something strange. He felt as if Li Nian’er was drawing on his power.
Every time Li Nian’er used a move, the energy he produced in one second of breathing was only a fifth of its usual amount.
Li Nian’er ended the battle within three moves, which was equivalent to Jiang Li not cultivating for five-thirds of a second.
The victor of the Divinity Transformation group is Jiuzhou.”
Another crushing defeat for Bahuang, Qian’s face was so grim that it seemed like it could drip water.
In the Body Integration group, let Black Dragon go.”
“By your command.”
The Black Dragon Territory Master took the stage, understanding Qian’s hint. He immediately revealed his black dragon form, with its teeth and claws dancing, exuded the pressure of a real dragon, aiming to intimidate Jiuzhou.
Being Qian’s steed, he had charged into many battles and killed countless enemies, gaining much merit and winning Qian’s trust.
“It’s my turn!”
The East Sea Dragon King stepped forward. He performed a somersault, revealing his Green Dragon form. He too exerted the pressure of a true dragon, overshadowing the Black Dragon Territory Master.
The two dragons faced each other in the air, and sparks flew from the friction. The referee had not yet called the start of the match, but the two dragons were already attacking each other.
The Black Dragon Territory Master intended to combat on the continent of Jiuzhou to disturb the onlookers and throw Jiuzhou into chaos.
How could the East Sea Dragon King do as the Black Dragon Territory Master wished? He stretched out his five claws and ripped out a piece of Black Dragon Territory Master’s inverse scale, sending the Black Dragon Territory Master into a fit of rage. His dragon eyes were blood red, and he was ready to tear his opponent to shreds.
The East Sea Dragon King lured the Black Dragon Territory Master into the cosmos, and with a flick of his tail, slapped the Black Dragon Territory Master’s face, causing him to ache.
“You’re courting death!”
The Black Dragon Territory Master roared. They were all real dragons, all at the later stage of Body Integration – where did the East Sea Dragon King get the audacity to challenge him?
“Flying Dragon in the Sky!”
The Black Dragon Territory Master’s bloodline was stimulated, and his black scales moved as if they were breathing.
“Human Emperor Jiang Li’s strength!”
The East Sea Dragon King’s figure was as enormous as a mountain. He possessed an unmeasurable, intangible weight and bumped fiercely against the Black Dragon Territory Master.
The Black Dragon Territory Master’s spine snapped into three sections. His body could no longer straighten, and numerous shattered bones were stuck in his body.
The East Sea Dragon King, with his immense strength, held down the Black Dragon Territory Master’s body and disemboweled him.
He had long noticed that this compatriot was up to no good and had initially killed countless souls.
At the same time, Qian gained the establishment’s guidance from the three Immortal elders and started misbehaving.
Qian got up abruptly and sternly reprimand: “What a ruthless Jiuzhou, they are so desperate!
As he said this, he initiated a spell to capture the East Sea Dragon King.
Bai Hongtu took a step forward and combined with his avatar, holding down Qian’s hand. He sneered: “Qian, losing face feels bad, doesn’t it?”
The other seven masters of Bahuang stood up. Seeing this, the heads of various powers in Jiuzhou also stood up, and the fight seemed imminent.
