Kong Ling sat cross-legged and formed hand seals. She couldn't help but say, "You're usually so quiet. How did you become so talkative and cruel after transforming?"
Du Ruo snorted. "I'm cruel? What do you know about elemental transformation? Don't talk nonsense. When I was still in the Realm of Void Heaven, I killed more people than you ever saw. "
Kong Ling smiled bitterly and closed her eyes, not arguing with him.
Du Ruo was the ancestor of all Crimson Venomous Scorpions. He had never been a kind person since ancient times.
After rebuking Kong Ling, he snorted and sat down cross-legged, forming hand seals to cultivate.
The hall suddenly fell into silence as everyone was recuperating from their injuries.
Fortunately, although the statue was destroyed, the barrier around the hall was still there, preventing anyone from suddenly entering.
Yang Qingxuan rummaged through Xiao Suyang's storage item and found many precious pills and treasures. He was overjoyed and swallowed them all.
Shi Yuyan and Fatty Pan also had many good things.
They were the fastest to recover in the hall.
In half a day, Yang Qingxuan's internal injuries were healed. He also recovered a little.
Yang Qingxuan circulated the Art of Genesis Flame Amplification and let the red flames flow through his meridians. Then, he split off another flame and let it flow along with the red flames.
The two flames traveled through his body, and the pain of being cut apart spread throughout his body.
Yang Qingxuan clenched his teeth. Cold sweat seeped out of his forehead and rolled down, but his face was very red under the reflection of the internal flames.
Although this kind of flame traveling technique was not as effective as the Azure Sun Martial Scripture in increasing one's cultivation, it was still very effective. Moreover, it allowed one to master and comprehend the Great Dao of Fire more skillfully.
"Brother Li Xuan, are you okay?"
Hua Qing came over and looked at Yang Qingxuan worriedly. She had never seen the change in his skin color before. She was afraid that Yang Qingxuan had taken too many pills, causing his True Yuan to become chaotic.
"I'm fine."
Yang Qingxuan suppressed the flames back into his Dantian and returned to normal. When he raised his head, he found that Shi Yuyan was also looking at him.
Their eyes met, and Yang Qingxuan couldn't help but turn his head away. Suddenly, he saw that the Wuji Apricot Yellow Flag and the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag were still standing side by side on the ground where the statue had been.
The yellow flag emitted a faint golden light, and the water flag emitted a slightly cold white light. The two reflected each other, like the sun and the moon rising together, a gentleman and a lady standing side by side.
Shi Yuyan happened to see it as well. The two of them couldn't help but look at each other. Ripples appeared in their deep and dark eyes.
Shi Yuyan averted her gaze, her cheeks burning.
Yang Qingxuan sighed inwardly. He stretched out his hand and made a grabbing motion. The Wuji Apricot Yellow Flag flew back to him.
Shi Yuyan also waved her hand, and the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag was also taken back into her body.
The hall was inexplicably quiet. Everyone looked at the two's actions and expressions with strange expressions.
Hua Qing looked deeply at Shi Yuyan with a complicated gaze.
"Boom!" Suddenly, there was a tremor. The place where the two flags were inserted inexplicably collapsed, revealing a deep pit that was ten zhang wide.
Everyone was shocked, and they all became vigilant.
Yang Qingxuan stood up and carefully walked over. He stared at the deep pit for a while and saw that the demonic Qi inside was rolling. Even his Fiery Gold Eyes were blocked.
"There's an underground palace below."
With limited vision, Yang Qingxuan made a judgment after pondering.
Shi Yuyan said in surprise, "Could it be that it leads to the main palace? The 36 Earth Fiend Demon Star Palace is one of the centers of the entire Jia Mo Temple, but the real main palace is hidden without a trace. "
The few of them all gathered around and stared at the hole.
Then, everyone's gaze fell on Yang Qingxuan, as if waiting for his opinion.
Yang Qingxuan smiled slightly and said, "I don't know if it leads to the main palace, but the demonic Qi inside is rolling. There must be a lot of points."
Cold air rose from Shi Yuyan's left hand and turned into Mu Hanxue. She attached it to her waist and said, "Let's go down."
Yang Qingxuan nodded and said, "I'll lead the way. Lance, you bring up the rear. "
With that, he jumped into the hole first.
Shi Yuyan followed closely behind, followed by Wen Liang. Hua Qing, Hua Ling, Fatty Pan, Kong Ling, Du Ruo, and Lance brought up the rear.
The remaining three looked at each other in dismay. They were in a dilemma and didn't know what to do.
…
In the Central Great World, there was a mirror-like lake high up in the sky.
The surroundings were empty and boundless. Low clouds floated on the surface of the lake. A gentle breeze blew past, but the water was still. At the center of the lake was a huge circular arena, exuding an austere aura.
Countless Soul-Devouring Golden Demons floated above the sea of clouds, rising and disappearing constantly.
A large number of martial artists stood in the sea of clouds, looking at the Soul-Devouring Golden Demons with serious expressions.
Every Soul-Devouring Golden Demon was a clone, displaying the martial artist's name and points.
Those with higher points would rise higher, while those with lower points would float above the lake. If a martial artist died, the Soul-Devouring Golden Demon would fall into the lake and turn into a sea of golden ripples.
This was the final battlefield of the Firmament Martial Arts Sparring Contest — the Nine Heavens Deep Sea's Cloudvoid Ancient Battle Platform.
A large number of people from various sects were watching here, analyzing and comparing the results of their disciples with different expressions.
"Zhuo Wu is dead. How can this be?!"
In the distance, above a cloud, a blue-clothed old man cried out in alarm.
In the sea of golden light, the Soul-Devouring Golden Demon with Zhuo Wu's name on it suddenly fell into the lake. It melted like snow and instantly turned into ripples, disappearing from the world.
The elder's face turned as pale as a sheet of paper, his eyes filled with despair.
Due to the rules of the competition, killing was not allowed. Although some Soul-Devouring Golden Demons disappeared, there were not many of them.
"It's the Zhuo family's elder, Zhuo Jing. The Zhuo Wu he mentioned was one of the two rising stars of the Zhuo family. He actually died."
"Since the start of the Firmament Martial Arts Symposium, there have been many martial artists who died."
"Actually, there are many geniuses who die in every competition. However, the rules of the Qingqiu Ancient Battlefield this time forbid killing, so there are fewer casualties. I've heard of that Zhuo Wu. It's a pity that he died. "
In the sea of clouds, the experts from various sects gathered in groups and discussed in low voices.
Zhuo Jing's expression turned even uglier when he heard everyone's words.
In a corner of the arena, two men who looked and dressed differently from the rest sat cross-legged. They were Huo 'er and Percy from the Yaksha tribe.
When they saw Lance's Soul-Devouring Golden Demon suddenly obtain seven points and stand out from the rest, they looked at each other and smiled.
Percy said, "Lance obtained seven points while Li Xuan obtained nine points. The two of them must have worked together to kill an evil spirit. Currently, there are less than ten people who have exceeded ten points. The final result will still take some time. "
Huo 'er said, "It looks like Lance and Li Xuan are together. With the two of them working together, entering the top hundred is nothing. "
Percy smiled. "If he can't even enter the top hundred, what value does Li Xuan have for us to bet on?"
Huo 'er nodded gently. "I wonder how far the two of them can go in the end."
Percy's expression was somewhat solemn as he said, "From the discussions of these human experts, they seem to think highly of Yang Wuxin. However, none of them mentioned Lan Ningxu. This is somewhat strange."
