Chapter 56 The Martial Arts Contest (6)
During the rest days, Li Wuyi’s injury was healed, and he had resumed his previous vigorous life, but he did not cry out for the final round. According to him, his own power was clear to himself. The strongest three of the team were obviously Lyu Liang, Xu Mubai and Zhu Yan. He was going to prepare for the celebration party afterwards…
The only interesting thing was that Zhu Yan’s family also lived in the Thousands Beast Mansion a few days ago, and was warmly welcomed by Dongfang Badao. According to Zhu Yan, they were also in the same place, and the two families were not too far away. Zhu family was also a rich family. In the early years, the Zhu family often subsidized the disciples of the Thousands Beast Mansion, so his relationship with the Dongfang family was very good.
…
At night, Zhu Yan’s room showed a happy atmosphere from an outsider’s point of view.
“You are sure that the man of from the Blood Divine Sect who was wearing a mask is Xu Chongzhi, one of the founders? Does he already had two life-bonded divine weapons in his body?” The cyan-robed youth asked with a stern look.
Zhu Yan rarely retracted his expression with laughter, and said in a low voice, “There’s no mistake! He can isolate the inspection of ‘Pangu View Map’, except for the founders, there will be no other people in this big world!”
“What do you plan to do? I don’t care about the lives of others, but the junior of the Xuanli Clan, you must help me protect him!” The blind-eyed woman also said definitely.
“Oh, no problem, not only him, the people in my team are doing well, I won’t let them die. As for Xu Mubai, I can’t finalize his thoughts now.” Zhu Yan frowned, and looked at the sky, seeming to be thinking about something.
At this moment, Zhu Xuangui sighed while touching his goatee and shaking his head, “Since everyone has reached a consensus, they will all enter the Beautiful but Evanescent Dream. When the time is ripe, I will ask you to show up with the holy animal print!”
…
Five days later, the remaining sixteen teams gathered beside the ring in the sword pavilion.
“No. 14 and No. 28, come on the stage!” With the loud voice of the Thousands Beast Mansion disciple, the two teams stood before the light gate on the stage.
This time, Lyu Liang also learned about the opponent, it was actually the disciple team of Yishui Clan in the Canglan Territory!
Lyu Liang also hatred the Yishui Clan, but it was still very different from his hate towards the Blood Divine Sect. After all, although they were one of the murderers of the Xuanli Clan, there was no direct and unforgettable injury to Lyu Liang.
However, since they became opponents, they would never be polite. It should be considered helping senior Feiwu and his false master to get revenge in advance!
Lyu Liang was still the first to compete, and his opponent was a tall and strong man at the peak of the Gold Core stage.
The two entered the light gate one after the other. When the two sides appeared together in the absurd world, the first game of the second round of the contest began!
This time, Lyu Liang did not hide his cards, and when he came up, he inspired the Devil Immortal Qi and used all the moves including Tranquility Sword Essence. Of course, he also left some tricks, but the Ghost Devil Head was not needed for the time being!
Sure enough, in the cool combination of Lyu Liang’s moves, the world was discolored, lightning and thunder shot out, and numerous Sword Qi shrouded in all directions, forcing the tall man to only create a green shield to defend with all his strength.
In the face of such a fierce offensive, the tall and strong man did not have spare time to attack. He was gambling, gambling that Lyu Liang’s attacks could not last long and his vitality would be exhausted. At that time, it was his time to strike. Unfortunately, he was destined to fail. After nearly half an hour, Lyu Liang suddenly inspired the Ghost Devil Head.
Suddenly, the power of all his moves rose by 3 levels, and the green light barrier was broken like cutting bamboo. In the horrified eyes of the tall and powerful man, even the words ‘I admit defeat’ did not have the opportunity to be said, and the man became ash.
On the stage in the sword pavilion, after the white light, Lyu Liang came out with a refreshed soul. Seeing that, Xu Mubai stepped forward and high-fived Lyu Liang tacitly, and he did not hesitate to walk into the newly appeared light gate.
From the Yishui Clan team, a short, fat young man followed up.
This battle ended faster. Before one could finish a cup of tea, the figure of Xu Mubai emerged from the white light. Then, the short and fat young man also appeared in the Yishui Clan team, but when he appeared, he lay on the ground motionless. It looked like he lost half of his life despite being alive.
…
Before the start of the third game, in Lyu Liang’s team, Zhu Yan had already been eager to compete. As soon as the light gate appeared, he disappeared from his original position. In the next moment, only one of his afterimages was left in front of the light gate.
This time the Yishui Clan did not hurriedly send anyone into the light gate. After a moment of discussion, a thin and tall man with a huge parcel slowly walked in.
In the boundless wasteland, Zhu Yan was happily looking at his opponent in the last battle.
The tall and thin man looked grim, and said a word after a long time, “I know that you are strong, but since you met me, you are unlucky! Die!”
As soon as his voice fell, the huge parcel behind the tall and thin man suddenly jumped up. Under the curiosity of Zhu Yan’s eyes, a huge black mist floated in the mouth of the bag, and in a flash, the black mist covered Zhu Yan.
The tall and thin man was overjoyed and laughed and said, “Despite being strong it is no use! This is a rare treasure that I got through chance. As long as you are wrapped in this dark fog, I can control it with my mind, and let you go back in time! Will I turn you into a baby? Or simply turn you into your original soul? You are still in the Gold Core stage, it seems like you have lived for thousands of years. I will let you go back tens of thousands of years! Of course, that is my limit! See how I ravage your soul! Hahaha!”
Looking at the thick black mist, the tall and thin man laughed wildly, and then said in a sardonic tone, “Oh, yes! You want to restore to your original state? Only if I’m dead! But is that possible? Haha…”
Before the tall and thin man finished laughing, an extremely powerful pressure had come from the black mist, and he had forced him directly to the ground. He felt pain as if all his blood vessels had ruptured.
At this point, the black fog suddenly madly shook up, like a huge monster that was about to break free from its cage! Suddenly, a loud noise burst out and the black mist gradually disappeared.
At the same time, a sharp voice sounded, “Oh, oh! I was worried that I would have to continue this way. So if I can recover as long as you disappear, you made me worried in vain.”
Every word, like a sword, stabbed the soul of the tall and thin man, giving him pain. Under his horrified gaze, the black fog was exhausted, a giant bird burned with a bright red flame, its eyes red, with strips of green gas, staring at the tall and thin man on the ground.
The flame bird seemed to be very interested. It first looked all over, then screamed cheerfully, “Oh, oh! This is what I used to be? It’s too long! Even now, it is impossible to return to such a primitive look! Thank you very much!”
The tall and thin man’s mind was already unclear. The eyes that had lost focus were full of dim colors. The dry lips squirmed up and down. Two words could be heard in the vagueness, “Kill me…”
In the eyes of the flame giant bird, a hint of irony flashed, and he sighed, “Hey, actually I still wanted to enjoy such a state, but since you made me so happy, I will satisfy you!”
Then, the body of the tall and thin man began to become ash, beginning from his feet and gradually spreading to his head. At the last moment, his eyes suddenly turned clear, before his head turned into ashes, he seemed to reveal the look of relief, and his mouth whispered with a voice that only he could hear, “Suzaku…”
…
At that moment, in the main hall of the Thousands Beast Mansion, all the core figures of the Dongfang family, headed by Dongfang Badao, paid homage to the flame giant bird in the huge cyan scrolls. Everyone had an irresistible ecstasy of worship.
As the only junior, Dongfang Xiaoyu, fell to the ground with the elders, her eyes were full of sluggishness. Upon seeing the flame giant bird, there was a sense of surrender from the depths of her soul, which made her unconsciously kneel down. Looking at the excitement of the elders, she seemed to suddenly understand the deep meaning of the question asked by Grandpa…
…
On the top of the ring in the sword pavilion, a white light flashed, and Zhu Yan emerged with extraordinary splendor in his eyes. Everyone could see the excitement on his face. Lyu Liang and the others had already rushed up.
The three brothers, looking at each other, directly lifted Zhu Yan and threw him into the sky, repeating several times before putting him down. Shangguan Ying gently smiled at the side, her amazing look made many men’s eyes fascinated.
“The 14th team has won the qualification to enter the Land of Origin!” The words rang out like a heavenly flute from the mouth of the disciple.
The only thing left to do was to continue to watch the contest of other teams.
In the subsequent contests, the team of the blue-eyed youth, without any accidents, was able to gain the second qualification in a flash.
Even though they lost a person, the team of Dongfang Xiaoyu successfully passed with three wins and one loss.
It was a pity for the Xuan Nyu Sect. Because there were only four people, and in the case of two wins and two losses, they had to accept the fate being eliminated. Fortunately, none of the five people were in danger of dying. Except for one serious injury before, the other four were slightly injured.
After six hours, the second round of the contest ended, and all the eight teams that obtained the qualifications to enter the Land of Origin were formed. According to the regulations, after 10 days, they would depart to the Xuanwu Territory in the demon world, where the powerful figures of the Demon Clan would bring them to the entrance of the Land of Origin.
On the night of the second round of the contest, the grand celebration feast was held with Li Wuyi taking the lead and Zhu Yan assisting in the cave residence of Lyu Liang. During the dinner, except for the awkward Shangguan Ying, the other four people had already played crazily. Even Xu Mubai, who had been stoic, couldn’t help but roll with the other three people, laughing and playing happily!
The whole banquet only came to and end on the second day. According to Li Wuyi and Zhu Yan, this was called the first half, at night, the second half came!
Later, the people returned to their own caves. Only Shangguan Ying quietly said to Lyu Liang before leaving, “Lyu Liang, after winning yesterday, I inferred a lot, but it was confusing and chaotic, the only thing that makes me clear is that, in the midst of it, the trip to the Land of Origin has a hint of departing…”
Lyu Liang interrupted the depressed Shangguan Ying, gently holding her soft and jade-like little tender hand, and said slowly, “Does it mean us? It doesn’t matter, as long as we are alive, even the ends of the earth, I will find you too! Don’t forget, you are my destined Taoist companion!”
…
At this time, in a cave house in the Thousands Beast Mansion, the blue-eyed youth and a beautiful woman in a water blue palace dress were standing in a slight bow. In front of them was the sloppy middle-aged man. Although he was still unkempt, the lethargy on his face had already been swept away, and it was replaced by infinite fighting intent!
“Bi Huo, Chishui, the plan has to change! In the trip to the Land of Origin, not only must we not touch the disciple of the Immortal Palace with the Mysterious Soul Body, we must protect the safety of that team. Although it should be not too dangerous with the presence of that man, we must not let any accidents occur!” After these words, the sloppy man took out an enchanting demon horn with majestic Demon Qi from his arms, and gently caressed it while talked to himself. “The Demon Emperor Horn left by the demon lord can finally come in handy! Betting the reputation of my Haotian Gold Celestial, I must not fail!”
