Inhis previous battles, Ye Futian had seemed to have taken advantage ofthe situation. He knew many abilities and could always find a way tosuppress his opponent. Therefore, although he was certainly not weak,many people felt that he was not too strong either. This being the case,before the battle began, many people thought that Ye Futian was goingto lose. However, he had totally crushed Yan Jiu in the battle, from thestart to the end. Even when Yan Jiu used his most powerful ability, YeFutian still managed to defeat him with the most elegant move.
Afterthis battle, many people finally realized that Ye Futian was only aGrade Nine n.o.ble, but his combat power was strong enough to enter thetop ten. Indeed, he had been promoted to the top ten.
Yan Jiustood up from the ground, still coughing blood. With his body bent, heraised his head and stared at Ye Futian, his eyes bloodshot. He had lostto someone whom he thought he would never lose to.
"Just so-so." Ye Futian turned around and left. Yan Jiu was clearly no longer able to fight.
Puff!Yan Jiu spat out a mouthful of blood and clenched his fists tightly. Hewanted to use this battle to prove his swordsmans.h.i.+p but only receivedsuch a humiliating comment before everyone else. Moreover, there werealso people from Sword Saint Villa watching the compet.i.tion at the side.
YanJiu did not leave the arena, as if he was still waiting for something.However, n.o.body from the Holy Zhi Palace spoke. Many people looked atwhere Sword Demon was at. Everyone knew that only Sword Demon mightaccept Yan Jiu as his disciple. Even if the rest asked, Yan Jiu wouldalso reject at once. Only Sword Demon, the strongest swordsman in theHoly Zhi Palace, was capable. However, Sword Demon did not speak untilthe end.
Seeming to have realized something, Yan Jiu gave a self-mocking smile. He would never forget the humiliation endured today.
Raising his feet with much difficulty, Yan Jiu walked away from the arena step by step, producing a desolate sight.
SwordDemon had accepted Zui Qianchou and Ye Wuchen. Zui Qianchou was animplacable enemy of Yan Jiu, while Ye Wuchen was also a good friend ofYe Futian. In such a circ.u.mstance, Sword Demon would rather choose thetwo of them and could only give Yan Jiu up. Thus, only Chi Meng and YuSheng were left in the battle for the top ten.
When the two ofthem walked into the center of the arena and stood opposite each other,many people had a strange feeling. They all felt that Yu Sheng wasstrong but weaker than Chi Meng. However, with Ye Futian as an example,and the battle between Yu Sheng and Dou Kui, perhaps somethingunexpected would happen again.
Both of them looked extremely burly. Just by standing there, they could already make everyone feel how powerful they were.
Suddenly,Devilish Qi erupted from Chi Meng"s body. A pair of wings appearedbehind his back and an illusory dragon wound around his arm, as if apure-blooded dragon was circling around him. His eyes looked as sharp,like the eyes of an eagle, and glittered in golden radiance, while hislegs were enveloped in wind. On his body, an illusory yak appeared. Itwas as though his entire body was made up of various demonic beasts. Helooked overpowering and devilish.
The members of Demon G.o.d Clanwere capable of borrowing the powers of various demonic beasts. Theycould even enter the margins of the Demon World and fight with thedemonic beasts there. Therefore, they had many abilities which otherwiseonly belonged to demonic beasts.
"Let me feel your power!" Chi Meng taunted, staring at Yu Sheng. Then, he walked forward.
YuSheng"s body was covered with a dark golden demonic light. Spiritual Qiin the sky gushed wildly into his demonic body, after which it turnedinto many streams of golden demonic currents that danced around him. YuSheng"s body was covered with a violent demonic might.
Dong! YuSheng stepped forward and the ground shook. With only one step, manypeople"s hearts raced uncontrollably. He looked so strong that mostpeople forgot his level. They all knew that Yu Sheng was powerful notonly because of his overpowering demonic art but also because of hisinborn strength. It was his innate talent that he was physicallystronger than an ordinary person. One could feel his strength by justlooking at his stature. Moreover, his physical talent and potential wereactivated further by his overpowering demonic method, which had finallycreated the frightening humanoid monster he was today.
Theirfists collided straight into each other. Immediately, a terrifying stormbloomed in the arena. The Devilish Qi and violent Demon Qi raged in theair. As the two collided with one another, many horrifying illusorydemonic beasts leaped towards Yu Sheng. However, an enormous illusorydemon appeared on Yu Sheng"s body. Immediately, the demonic beasts weresuppressed firmly on the ground, as if they were kneeling down.
Atthe same time, the demonic light on Yu Sheng"s fist was actuallyconsuming the Devilish Qi on Chi Meng"s body. As Yu Sheng activated hisdemonic method, he started engulfing all the powers around him.
ChiMeng punched out his left fist which actually turned into a giant Roc.With its sharp claws ready, the Roc charged towards Yu Sheng"s head.Immediately, Yu Sheng withdrew his right fist, after which he swept outhis left arm. His demonic might penetrated through everything, crus.h.i.+ngthe illusory Roc. Then, his fist landed on Chi Meng"s left arm,producing a violent bang. Chi Meng, however, did not stop. His righthand punched out again with much force. This time, it was the power ofthe elephant.
Under the attentive stare of everyone, the twofought wildly with each other in a close-range battle. As they fought,their bodies also ascended into the air. They battled from the groundinto the sky and an appalling storm was created around them. Theaudience noticed that the illusory demonic beasts that Chi Meng releasedduring his attacks could not harm Yu Sheng at all. Yu Sheng was sostrong that he could break everything by force.
Bang! Following aloud bang, the two separated from each other for the first time.Spiritual Qi rolled on Chi Meng"s body and ascended into the air. Then,his Life Spirit appeared behind him. It was a catalog that seemed tocontain thousands of drawings of demonic beasts. These drawings seemedto be able to move on their own and they were filled with an imposingDevilish Qi. This was the Demon Refining Catalogue, a Life Spirit thatonly core disciples of Demon G.o.d Clan could possess.
From ChiMeng"s Life Spirit, many intimidating demonic beasts charged outdirectly. They included Rocs, elephants, golden lions, stone apes,pure-blooded dragons…
At this instant, all the drawings in theDemon Refining Catalogue seemed to have come alive. The thousands ofdemonic beasts in the sky trampled and rushed towards Yu Sheng"s body.
"This Life Spirit…" Ye Futian was somewhat shocked. Could this Life Spirit summon demonic beasts?
Indeed,the Demonic Refining Catalogue was capable of summoning. Even among thecultivators from Demon G.o.d Clan, only a handful would possess this LifeSpirit. It was said that the earliest leader of Demon G.o.d Clan was alsoextremely powerful, but the clan declined slowly after that. Despitethis being the case, Demon G.o.d Clan was still one of the most powerfulforces in the Barren State. The demonic beasts raced and crushedeverything in the sky, charging towards Yu Sheng.
Yu Sheng"sexpression was extremely cold and the demonic might on his body alsogrew in intensity. Behind him, the illusory demon seemed to have comeinto existence, turning into a real demon. It roared and the skyvibrated. The demonic beasts charging over actually trembled in fear andmany of them knelt down in the sky, not daring to advance further. Itwas as though they were terrified by the might of the illusory demon.
"Strike!"Chi Meng shouted. At once, many demonic beasts continued charging. Eventhough they were fear-stricken, they still listened to Chi Meng"scommands.
With a demonic halberd in his hand, Yu Sheng sw.a.n.g thehalberd forward suddenly, penetrating across the bodies of many demonicbeasts. Blood danced in the sky. Nevertheless, there were stillcountless demonic beasts charging wildly towards him. Yu Sheng"s eyeswere glittering with an astounding demonic light. In the depth of hiseyes, there seemed to be an all-powerful illusory demon. It was anancient demon which had granted him his startling strength.
Immediately,the Spiritual Qi around Yu Sheng all turned into Demon Qi which circledaround the sky wildly, crus.h.i.+ng everything. Raising his head, Yu Shenglooked at the sky and then extended his arm. The Spiritual Qi in the skyturned into many dark golden demonic halberds. The vast region aroundYu Sheng was filled with countless demonic halberds.
In the nextmoment, everyone saw the infinite number of demonic halberds start acrazy ma.s.sacre. They penetrated across the incoming demonic beasts,producing many loud thuds. All the demonic beasts seemed to be whiningin pain. The demonic beasts falling from the sky seemed to have beensummoned by the Demon G.o.d, which was Yu Sheng himself.
Countlesspeople were astonished. The scene of the countless demonic beasts beingslain was too alarming. Those from the Dawn Road were now certain thatYu Sheng was the person who had killed Ning Huang. Did the same kind ofma.s.sacre happen in Jinxiao City? They would clearly not know that thiswas the ability Yu Sheng had obtained after entering the n.o.ble Plane inhis previous battle. He did not have this ability in the Dawn Road.
"YuSheng seems to have totally transformed after becoming a n.o.ble..."Looking at the scene, Ye Futian was dumbfounded. That year, he hadinherited the Freedom Meditation, while Yu Sheng had obtained thedemonic art from G.o.dfather. What kind of art is it exactly? Why is it sostrong? he thought.
The higher Yu Sheng"s level was, the more overpowering he was.
Suddenly,a ridiculous thought appeared in Ye Futian"s mind—his G.o.dfather was YuSheng"s actual father. Yu Sheng had obtained his talents and demonic artfrom his father.
So was Ye Futian"s G.o.dfather a DemonicCultivator? Was this the reason that he was not tolerated by thepowerful people in the Divine Prefecture?
In the depth of the HolyZhi Palace, there was an extremely tall palace. In the palace, therewas a burly figure sitting quietly on the ground. Suddenly, he openedhis eyes, looking at a certain direction outside the Holy Zhi Palace.The person was half-naked and his entire body was bronze in color, butat the same time filled with a golden l.u.s.ter. His muscles seemed tocontain incredible power. At the moment, it was as though his sightcould penetrate across s.p.a.ce and he was looking at the arena directly.
Inthe arena, many dark golden demonic halberds were charging towards ChiMeng. The thousands of demonic beasts roared but could not stop theincoming attack. Chi Meng backed off rapidly and stared at Yu Sheng,after which he said, "I lost."
Right away, Yu Sheng stopped hisattack. The demonic might on his body dissipated and he returned to hisoriginal position. However, his demon-like figure had been carved intothe minds of countless many.
Yu Sheng had beat Chi Meng andobtained the last position in the top ten. What exactly was his limit?Even Chi Meng did not manage to stop him from advancing. Yu Sheng wasindeed a monster.
The battles in the Holy Zhi Palace were indeedthe most exciting n.o.ble-level battles in the Barren State. So manygeniuses had shown up. Today, Ye Futian and Yu Sheng had both becomefamous in just one battle. One of them had defeated Yan Jiu, while theother had beat Chi Meng.
The ten top had finally emerged. Theywere Ye Futian, Yu Sheng, Yuan Zhan, Huang Jiuge, Bai Ze, Zhuge Xing, XuQue, Xiao Junyi, Huang, and Phoenix!
Scanning these people, manypeople were filled with excitement. How intense would the battle of thetop ten be? Even the powerful cultivators were looking forward to it!
