Volume 1 Chapter 1256 Forcefully Change The Rules
At the end of the fifth round, Kong Yun had to breathe a sigh of relief, because the sixth round of the soul force compet.i.tion wouldn"t start until the next day. Including You Luo Gu, Kong Yun, and Shen Sheng, only eight soul force experts remained.
Apart from the three of them, there were four other disciples from the Soul Strength Cultivation Sect on the continent, while there was only one rogue cultivator left. Kong Yun had also paid close attention to this rogue cultivator"s battle during the fourth round. He had heard from the spectators that this rogue cultivator was called Lin Yi. He was often unfair and was a real"chivalrous person ".
The results of the drawing of lots were quickly announced, Kong Yun looked at the signature in his hand. His luck wasn"t bad, His opponent was a peak mid-Divine King realm soul force expert, His name was Soul Turtle. It was very similar to his fighting style. Kong Yun had seen a battle before. This person"s soul force was extremely solid and hard to shake like an ice-cold boulder. Almost all of the soul force martial artists he had defeated were consumed by his powerful soul defense.
The first battle was between Shen Sheng and a peak G.o.d King Realm soul force expert. There was naturally nothing unexpected in the end. In just a short moment, that peak G.o.d King Realm soul force expert was defeated by Shen Sheng.
Kong Yun looked at the number three lot in his hand, his eyes turned to the Soul Turtle and smiled at him.
However, when the Soul Turtle"s expression turned ugly, If it was the last opponent he wanted to meet in this compet.i.tion, Naturally, it was You Luo Gu, Shen Sheng, and Kong Yun. When You Luo Gu was ruthless, Shen Sheng had become famous in the continent for a long time. Speaking of Kong Yun, the fire dragon Kong Yun had summoned with his soul power in the previous round made him extremely afraid. What was even more terrifying was that Kong Yun had yet to display his true soul power.
"Kong Yun versus Soul Turtle, please step onto the stage and begin …"
After the Temple Elder announced it, he saw the Soul Turtle grit its teeth. In any case, Kong Yun had never harmed anyone"s life in the previous compet.i.tion. It was better than meeting that fellow from You Luo Bone.
He stepped onto the divine platform heavily and bowed to Kong Yun with both hands clasped together. He knew very well that being able to reach the sixth round of luck was already heaven-defying.
Kong Yun smiled and waved his hand.
As Kong Yun had expected, the Soul Turtle immediately used his soul force to form a solid shield in a corner of the divine platform.
This shield had caused quite a bit of trouble to his opponent in all previous battles, but in Kong Yun"s eyes, it was so weak!
Kong Yun took a gentle step back with his right foot, and his eyes suddenly shrank. The soul force in his body condensed into threads like countless sharp thorns.
With a wave of his hand, the Soul Needle instantly arrived in front of the Soul Turtle"s Ghost Shield.
"Bang bang bang ~"
At first, the Soul Turtle"s protective shield had also sent many soul needles formed from Kong Yun flying, but as time pa.s.sed, the soul force in its body was no longer enough to support him in using the shield.
Normally speaking, a martial artist like the Soul Turtle, who was famous for his defense, would struggle to consume his body"s strength. However, this time, he hadn"t even fought against Kong Yun, which was enough to show how powerful Kong Yun"s soul force was!
"I admit defeat!"
The Soul Turtle"s voice rang out. Kong Yun smiled and withdrew all the Soul Needles. He clasped his fists like a Soul Turtle. Seeing the end of the match, all the spectators revealed a trace of disappointment. The moment they saw Kong Yun stepping onto the divine platform, they were all looking forward to seeing Kong Yun use that visually shocking fire dragon again. However, this time, it was contrary to their expectations.
The compet.i.tion continued. The battle between the other two martial artists continued for a long time. Both of their strengths were at the peak of the Divine King Realm. It could be said that they were on par with each other.
The sky gradually darkened, and a martial artist named Pang Yun finally advanced.
The last battle of the sixth round was between You Luo Gu and Lin Yi. Everyone couldn"t help but be worried about Lin Yi. Kong Yun"s gaze also turned towards Lin Yi, who had been standing at the side of the divine platform waiting for a long time. His gaze was incomparably calm and did not seem to be filled with fear.
"Interesting" Kong Yun couldn"t help but feel a hint of interest in Lin Yi. What was surprising was that Hall Master Hun Zhen, who had been sitting under the divine arena watching the battle, actually had a rich expression on his face.
"Battle begins." As soon as the Temple Elder"s voice fell, Lin Yi and You Luo Bone flew up at the same time. Peng"s body emitted a powerful soul force that quickly spread into the battlefield.
The expressions of the surrounding audience changed slightly. They did not expect that the battle between the two peak G.o.d Kings would reach this level. It was extremely unbelievable.
Just as the crowd was shocked, the corner of You Luo Bone"s mouth slightly raised, and there was no pressure on his face. This scene fell into Hun Zhen"s eyes, and his heart was extremely bad.
Lin Yi shouted as he waved his arms and flew straight towards You Luo Bone"s head.
You Luo Bone didn"t have any means of defense at the beginning, and was still charging forward. After the two of them collided for a distance, You Luo Bone punched out and smashed into Lin Yi"s fist.
Although the two of them had the same strength, they could tell that the speed of the Netherworld Bone was much higher than Lin Yi"s, but there wasn"t much difference in power.
However, Lin Yi, who was inside, did not feel this way. He could feel an enormous force rushing towards his heart through his arms.
Under the boundless sky, Lin Yi could only forcefully block it and retreat while unloading the power in his body.
You Luo Bone didn"t chase after Lin Yi, but instead ejected at the same time, drawing a distance between him and Lin Yi.
The battle between the two of them seemed to be equally divided in the eyes of the others, but in Lin Yi"s heart, he was truly shocked. He stared at You Luo Bone with his eyes wide open, and his eyes were filled with rage.
His Dao of Nature, You Luo Bone, was much stronger than him, but he felt that it was not the strength of a True G.o.d, so he felt a bit more confident in his heart.
Kong Yun"s expression froze when he saw this scene. He happened to see Lin Yi"s expression. He knew that this confrontation was not that simple. He only knew that You Luo Bone was very strong.
The two of them didn"t stop and continued to attack each other. Their figures flashed in the air, causing everyone to be dazzled. However, in Kong Yun"s eyes, Lin Yi had already lost.
Knowing the difference between him and You Luo Bone, Lin Yi decided to fight to the death. He roared and the surrounding soul force instantly condensed. At the same time, a white phantom appeared behind Lin Yi. The phantom was holding a huge sword. It was extremely domineering, but no one could see his appearance clearly.
Even after seeing this, You Luo Bone did not panic at all. He slowly waved his hand and a phantom appeared behind him. However, there was only the phantom of a sword and nothing else.
Lin Yi roared as he swung his giant sword down and landed on the phantom of You Luo Bone.
You Luo Bu waved his hands, and the giant sword behind him immediately moved, flying towards Lin Yi at a speed that no one could see clearly. Seeing this scene, Lin Yi knew that You Luo Bone"s heart was filled with killing intent. His expression froze slightly, and he immediately gave up killing. He directly placed the giant sword in front of him, blocking You Luo Bone"s giant sword.
However, the difference between Lin Yi"s strength and the Netherworld Bone was simply too great. Lin Yi"s phantom image instantly collapsed and disappeared into s.p.a.ce. However, the black sword didn"t slow down and shot straight at Lin Yi"s head.
Everyone saw this scene and a few words appeared in their mouths. The people who fought with You Luo Bone were all dead, and Lin Yi was not surprised.
Just as everyone thought that Lin Yi was about to die, Lin Yi roared and punched out, smashing into the giant sword. Then, his figure flew outside. Seeing this scene, You Luo Bone gave up on attacking. Although he really wanted to kill Lin Yi in his heart, facing the many experts of the Temple, their plan would fail if this was the case.
Lin Yi didn"t feel good. After flying out of the arena, did the empress vomit blood? Her expression instantly turned pale, and her aura was extremely dispirited, as if she would die if she was careless.
Kong Yun came to Lin Yi"s side, thinking that his body had channeled some life force, which was why he was able to maintain Lin Yi"s life.
After recovering a little, Lin Yi slowly opened his eyes and looked at Kong Yun. "You Luo Bone"s strength isn"t that simple. When you meet him, be careful."
Kong Yun nodded, "Don"t worry, I will. You can rest well." Afterwards, Lin Yi closed his eyes and began to slowly recover.
When the elder saw this scene, he shouted, "You Luo Gu wins this match." Afterwards, a wave of cheers broke out in the arena.
At this moment, Kong Yun"s eyes met Youluo Bone"s. Youluo Bone smiled slightly and threw a provocative look.
Kong Yun"s heart was completely calm. He smiled and turned his head to the other side.
At this moment, Hun Zhen slowly walked onto the stage and shouted loudly, "Congratulations to the four of you for entering the semi-finals. I was very happy this time. Seeing how powerful the younger generation of our clan is, there is a faint tendency to surpa.s.s the older generation. This is the good fortune of our Temple, and also the good fortune of our clan."
These words caused everyone to cheer and shout, "Hall Master is wise."
"Now, I have decided to increase the difficulty of the match. In the next round, you Luo Bone will face Pang Yun and Kong Yun against Shen Sheng. Let"s see what kind of sparks they can create." After Hun Zhen finished speaking, he ignored the expressions of the others and returned to his seat.
Kong Yun"s heart skipped a beat, and he instantly understood what Hun Zhen was thinking. He let out a bitter smile, but since the matter was settled, there was nothing to escape.
However, what Kong Yun hadn"t expected was that before he had any objections, a beautiful figure rushed to Hun Zhen"s side. His handsome eyebrows furrowed slightly as he looked at Hun Zhen angrily.
"Yuan"er …"
Hun Zhen couldn"t help but feel guilty when he saw his daughter"s gaze, but for the sake of nothingness, for the sake of the Temple"s face, he had no choice but to do so.
"Despicable!"
Hun Yuan"s voice was like a needle piercing into Hun Zhen"s heart, as if she was bitten by ten thousand ants. However, Hun Zhen still shrugged his shoulders.
"What"s the matter with you here? Get lost!"
