Zhu Gaotai and Fei Ling are both top masters of the Qi Condensation Stage from the two peaks. After the other 19 battle stages in the first round were over, the two of them were still using their magic skills in a fierce battle.
But later on, Fei Ling's mana was obviously running low, and more than half of the attacks were caused by the blood-brown mantis. It was obvious that the wind escape technique he had cast before was an overload for him, and his mana consumption was too great.
Zhu Gaotai was also an experienced and sophisticated man. He did not give him any time to recover. His attack was like a storm, and the pair of magical drum hammers kept making various changes.
When attacking directly, thunder and lightning will interweave, and when transforming, various vines will appear and try to entangle and raid Fei Ling, making Fei Ling always under attack, leaving him no time to recover his mana.
However, since the attacks of the Blood-Brown Knife Mantis were equally sharp, Zhu Gaotai was equivalent to facing the combined attack of two Qi Condensation Stage Ten masters. Although the offensive was fierce, he was still at a disadvantage.
It's just that his basic magic skills are really amazing. Every time he uses them, they are mellow and heavy, with extraordinary power. The "binding technique", "fireball technique", "water curtain technique", "golden spine technique" and so on are all great.
The drum hammer magic treasure gave Fei Ling a lot of headaches. He was about to succeed several times, but was counterattacked by the magic treasure.
Everyone cheered as they watched. During the stalemate, Zhu Gaotai secretly slapped his waist with his left hand. There was a slight sound in the air, and two "Urn Thunder Gu" appeared in the air and separated at lightning speed, one attacking Fei Ling and the other attacking the blood-brown mantis.
The blood-brown knife mantis immediately stood its body up high, making a loud "squeaking" sound, and its pair of large swords danced flawlessly. The "Urn Thunder Gu" was unable to get close for a while, and after a long time, it began to be suppressed by the blood-brown knife mantis within a certain range and could not attack.
At the same time, Fei Ling was under attack from Zhu Gaotai and another "Thunder Jar Gu". He was dodging left and right, and only managed to hold out for a dozen breaths before the "Thunder Jar Gu" latched onto his neck. His face turned pale in an instant, and he had to admit defeat.
Li Yan watched all this and calculated silently in his mind. He analyzed that Zhu Gaotai should have only two "Thunder Gu in the Jar", and this pair of "Thunder Gu in the Jar" seemed to be still in its infancy, with the spiritual energy in their bodies only at the eighth level of the Qi Condensation Stage.
This should be the reason why Zhu Gaotai was reluctant to release the insect, but fortunately, the "Thunder Urns Gu" was ranked several places higher than the "Blood Brown Mantis", and with some suppression on the blood, he was able to barely hold on for a while.
But if it takes longer, it might be killed by the "Blood Brown Mantis".
After the first round, the second and third rounds followed. Li Yan didn't win in any of them. He certainly hoped that the chance of winning would be later so that he could see more people taking action.
But his wish did not come true after all. At the beginning of the fourth round, he was the first one to be drawn. The blue light on the crystal condensed into two lines of words "thirty-three" and "two hundred and twenty-one". A voice sounded in Li Yan's ears.
"Signed, four matches, thirty-three to two hundred and twenty-one!"
Lin Daqiao smiled when she saw that it was Li Yan’s number.
"Junior brother, it's your turn!"
At this time, except for Li Wuyi who had gone to a battle platform to monitor the battle, Wei Chituo, Yun Chunqu, Gong Chenying, and Lin Daqiao were still here.
Wei Chituo wanted to raise his hand to pat Li Yan on the shoulder and say something, but Li Yan had already taken a step forward, which made Wei Chituo stunned, and then he grinned at him.
Li Yan turned around and smiled at the two of them. Yun Chunqu and Gong Chenying were looking at the other two crystal plates on the battle platforms at this time. They seemed to be interested in the cultivators there and did not turn around to look at Li Yan.
Li Yan certainly didn't care about their attitude towards him, these two people were always like this, cold and icy. Just as he released the flying spirit weapon and was about to fly away, a cold voice came.
"Your opponent is from Laojun Peak, ranked at least in the top 50 in the peak. Pay attention to his medicine."
The voice came from Gong Chenying, which made Li Yan stunned. He looked back and saw Gong Chenying withdrawing her gaze from the crystal plate and turning to look at him, with an extremely cold and elegant look.
Li Yan didn't know how she knew that the other party was a disciple of Laojun Peak. There were only numbers on the big screen, but he didn't have time to delve into it at this moment. He nodded slightly to Gong Chenying.
"Thank you, Sixth Senior Sister!"
Then he stepped on the flying spiritual weapon and flew out.
Li Yan quickly passed through the blue protective light shield. At this time, the defense of the light shield had not yet been activated, so he easily passed through.
After flying forward for a distance, it landed in the center of the platform. Li Yan calmly put away the flying magic weapon and looked across. The young man opposite had already arrived.
Judging from the logo on the young monk's sleeves, he is indeed a monk from Laojun Peak. He is of medium build, with a ruddy complexion, slanted eyebrows and bright eyes. In addition to wearing the sect's long robe, he also has his hair tied up in a bun, dressed like a Taoist priest.
At this moment, he was dozens of feet away from Li Yan, looking at Li Yan with a puzzled look.
As soon as Li Yan landed, he released his spiritual sense. After seeing that the person was actually a cultivator in the middle stage of the sixth level of the Condensation Stage, he couldn't help but be stunned. If he remembered correctly, the cultivator in this competition should be at least in the ninth level of the Condensation Stage.
"How did this person get his name?"
But the next moment, the young man immediately became alert, this competition was for the Wheel of Life and Death. Although the Wheel of Life and Death had not been opened for tens of thousands of years, there were legends about the cruel sects involved.
The person opposite was obviously not a close relative arranged by an elder. First, he did not hear anyone greeting him and asking him to show mercy.
Secondly, if he enters the Wheel of Life and Death by virtue of his connections, the other three sects and the monsters in the secret realm will kill him no matter who he is, and he will then die in vain.
If these reasons are excluded, it can only mean that this kid must have something extraordinary. Thinking of this, the young man slowly put away his contempt...
At the same time, Yan Longzi on the suspended pavilion also opened his eyes which had been slightly closed. Several of the other dozen people also looked down at the battle stage where Li Yan was.
"Seeing that his cultivation is less than the eighth level of Qi Condensation, it seems that this person is the one with the 'Fragmented Poison Body'! Hmm? He has actually reached the seventh level of Qi Condensation. Didn't Li Wuyi say that he was in the middle of the sixth level of Qi Condensation?"
At this time, an elder from Buli Peak spoke indifferently. It turned out to be the woman with ordinary appearance and dull expression who had always wanted to study Li Yan. However, this time, the leader of Buli Peak, the beautiful woman was not here.
This female elder from Buli Peak was truly powerful. She could tell Li Yan's realm at a glance, which only showed that the gap between their realms was too great.
“Hehehe… Elder Hua, you see this boy’s restrained aura is quite skillful. I guess Li Wuyi didn’t see it either.”
A scholar opposite him smiled and said, it was the head of Lingchong Peak. "I think it might be because of Zhili Dushen cultivation. He cultivated the Ten Thousand Yuan Gong. I know this. Since he can reach such a realm, it makes me look forward to it even more."
Yan Longzi stroked his beard and said. The fact that the head of Buli Peak did not come this time also made him feel more at ease, and the conversations among the people here became more harmonious.
After hearing what the two said, the elder Buli Fenghua did not say anything else. He just stared at the battle stage with a frown, as if he was thinking about something.
"Oh? This boy is the one with the name 'Dismembered Poisonous Body'. This is the first time I've seen him. I never thought that the legendary heaven-defying physique would have such remarkable effects. He can hide his aura at the Qi Condensation Stage. It's just a pity that his talent is so low."
Hearing the conversation between the three people, several elders nearby either opened their eyes or shifted their gazes from other battle platforms, all wanting to take a look at Li Yan, who was said to have a supernatural physique in the sect.
They are all people who have studied various poisonous plants and insects for hundreds of years, and are of course very interested in physical mutation, although there are still two other poisonous bodies besides the three most poisonous bodies of the Wuliang Sect in the sect.
But they were two Nascent Soul ancestors, and even if they had ten thousand courages they would not dare to investigate carefully.
Among these elders, many are extremely obsessed with poison. They just want to see the disintegrated poisonous body, one of the three most poisonous bodies of the Wuliang Sect. If they were not concerned about Wei Chongran, someone would have captured Li Yan to study him long ago.
In the diamond-shaped area surrounded by dozens of platforms, Zhao Min's pair of big black and white eyes were staring at the crystal plate without blinking.
"Junior Sister Min, Junior Brother Li has finally shown up. I heard he was also present at the last foundation building competition, but he was blocked by thousands of people from Laojun Peak in the center, so you weren't able to flirt with him."
A captivating voice came from the side, and Li Changting's beautiful eyes stared at Zhao Min's fair face cunningly.
Zhao Min frowned, without turning back, and just spoke lightly.
"Senior Sister Li, you're overthinking. I'm just curious about the 'Dismembered Poison Body'. Although I've spoken to him a few times, I've never seen him take action."
"Junior Sister Min, I still believe what you said a little bit. There are really not many people below who know about the 'Disintegrated Poison Body'. After this person joined the sect, he never left Xiaozhu Peak. It seems that the higher-ups are suppressing this news intentionally or unintentionally.
It seems that Junior Brother Lu from Laojun Peak didn't know about it, otherwise he wouldn't have that expression. But after this competition, I guess this secret will slowly spread."
Li Changting's eyes swept across Zhao Min's carved jade face, his red lips slightly opened, and then he also set his gaze on the young Taoist priest from Laojun Peak on the crystal plate.
Zhao Min was really more curious about Li Yan than others. She grew up in the Wangliang Sect and knew more about the three peerless poisonous bodies than some people. She had always wanted to see what the three peerless poisonous bodies were like, but unfortunately she had never seen the two Nascent Soul ancestors take action.
However, she also did not want any of the five Nascent Soul ancestors in the sect to take action, as that would mean the sect would be facing a life-and-death situation.
Ever since she learned that a disciple with a poisonous body had joined the sect, she wanted to meet him, but she couldn't rashly challenge Li Yan to a fight, as he was only a Qi Condensation stage disciple, and doing so would only lead to gossip.
It was indeed accidental that she first came into contact with Li Yan. When she first met him, she had the desire to understand him, including curiosity about his poisonous body.
But after several contacts, she slowly developed another strange feeling towards Li Yan. She somewhat liked being with Li Yan, and liked the fact that Li Yan was silent but also had a delicate mind.
When she wanted to hear about the warmth and coldness of human nature and the various aspects of the world, Li Yan would always tell her the stories and always add details at the right time.
She could understand some slang and colloquialisms that she originally didn't understand instantly without having to ask. She liked this feeling, but she knew that it was far from being a love story between a man and a woman.
Li Changting suddenly smiled and asked in a low voice.
"Junior Sister Min, how many rounds do you think that boy can fight? His realm is not high. If he loses in one round, it will be a bit disappointing."
At this point, she chuckled, but she didn't say she was disappointing anyone.
Zhao Min raised her eyebrows and said calmly.
"So what if I fail? After all, we are only a few realms apart. I just want to see if his fragmented poisonous body has any of the legendary special effects."
Lu Qiutong did not take action immediately, but just narrowed her eyes and looked Li Yan up and down again.
Li Yan just stood there dozens of feet away. If a Qi Condensation Stage cultivator made a move at this distance, both sides would notice it in advance.
He was also looking at the young monk in front of him who was dressed like a Taoist priest. Li Yan felt danger from this person. It was not the sharp danger like that of his second senior brother and sixth senior sister, but the warning sign like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity to attack from his third senior brother and fifth senior brother.
"This junior brother looks unfamiliar. I am Lv Qiutong from Laojun Peak."
Lu Qiutong suddenly smiled.
"Meet Senior Brother Lu, Li Yan from Xiaozhu Peak."
Li Yan returned the greeting and spoke with a smile.
"Li... Yan, Li... Yan, I remember now that the disciple who joined Xiaozhu Peak a few years ago turned out to be an uncle."
Lu Qiutong tilted his head and thought for a while, then stopped talking. He had heard of this person before, but he did not expect that he was in the Qi Condensation Stage, which was lower than his realm. Since he was his uncle who was at a lower realm than him, it could be said that this person was gifted.
Li Yan also kept silent. He knew that this person was not speaking out of courtesy, but just wanted to search for his information in his memory so that he could make good use of it and gain the upper hand in the battle.
The next moment, Lu Qiuting moved!
