Although Mo Qingcheng hadn't stepped into the Immortal Martial Realm yet, ever since Qin Wentian stepped in, her heart had been extremely tense. There was no expression on her face, but one could see a hint of worry in the centre of her brows. But now when she saw Qin Wentian's name appearing on the monument, her tightly clenched fists loosened slightly. Sweat could be seen on her palms.
The experts from the Medicine Sovereign Valley also saw Qin Wentian's name. Their eyes flashed with a bright light as their evaluation of Qin Wentian rose by several notches. Seems like the man the Holy Maiden loved was truly not bad, to be able to rank within the top thirty of the ranking monument. However, they didn't know if he would be able to enter the top thirty.
They glanced at Mo Qingcheng, and when they saw the radiant smile on her face, their hearts involuntarily trembled. Such a smile was pure and flawless, so beautiful that it caused the jealousy of many women. They sighed in their hearts, the Holy Maiden's love for that young man was too deep, they didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing.
As the Holy Maiden of the Medicine Sovereign Valley, Mo Qingcheng's beauty was so stunning that it was natural for many to pay attention to her. This was especially so for many young males. Their gazes would occasionally sneak glances in her direction, and when they saw the smile on Mo Qingcheng's face, they couldn't help but be dumbfounded. After which, their gazes turned back to the monument. Holy Maiden Mo Qingcheng, which name did she see for her to have such a smile on her face?
As they thought of this, traces of jealousy could be seen in their hearts. If the Holy Maiden of the Medicine Sovereign Valley could give them such a smile, even if they had to give up everything, they would have no regrets.
The people in the Immortal Martial Realm didn't know what was happening outside. After Qin Wentian and the others inscribed their names on the stone monument, they walked up to it. These stone monuments emitted a marvelous aura, they could choose a stone monument and fuse with the will of the stone monument.
Qin Wentian walked towards one of the monuments in the first row. This monument shone with a resplendent golden light, exuding an incomparably domineering aura of wildness and arrogance. This aura attracted him, hence, he chose this monument.
Instantly, golden light filled the skies as Qin Wentian's will completely fused with the monument. It was as though he had entered another dimension, the dimension of the ancient monument.
In this vast space, golden light flashed in the sky. Golden runic lights flashed brilliantly. The golden runic lights converged to form ancient characters that floated in the air, blooming with dazzling splendor.
Qin Wentian inclined his head and stared at the golden runes in the air, the resplendent ancient characters. Above these runic lights, a thunderous screech rang out, shaking the heavens and earth. Only to see a gigantic roc clad in golden light that seemed to be forged from pure gold appeared, spitting out beams of resplendent runic light that shot towards Qin Wentian.
These runes directly landed on Qin Wentian. In an instant, his entire body turned golden, as though he was also made of pure gold. A shrill screech rang out from his mouth. Qin Wentian's hands trembled as a raging wind howled. He discovered that he actually grew a pair of wings as he transformed into a golden-winged roc.
The will of the monument fused into his body. At this moment, he seemed to have transformed into the purest form of a golden-winged roc. His hands were sharp as he stared at the ancient characters in the air. These characters seemed to be branded into his mind, transforming into scenes of a golden-winged roc. Qin Wentian also started his cultivation, using the body of a golden-winged roc to cultivate. The golden light radiating from his body grew more and more resplendent as his wings grew longer and sharper.
"RUMBLE!" A thunderous sound rang out. After which, an azure dragon appeared in Qin Wentian's vision. This azure dragon was extremely terrifying, its eyes were gigantic as it stared at Qin Wentian.
"It's the Heaven Chosen of the Divine Dragon Stronghold, Hei Teng." The experts on the floating bridges saw the two stone monuments converging together as two interconnected images appeared in the air. These images were none other than the projections of the two stone monuments.
"Hei Teng is the first person to infiltrate the stone monuments of other experts. The first person he found was none other than Qin Wentian, a disciple of the Battle Sword Sect. He was the one who sent Li Hanyou of the Li Clan flying with a single slap."
"Hei Teng is a Heaven Chosen of the Divine Dragon Stronghold. His control over the demonic dragon should be very strong. Qin Wentian's path has reached its end." The crowd mused. The demonic dragon's large eyes stared at the golden-winged roc Qin Wentian transformed into as a cold smile appeared on its face. This was the first time it launched an attack, so it naturally had to find someone who wasn't that dazzling. Hence, it chose Qin Wentian, directly launching an attack.
The demonic dragon soared through the air, dashing towards the golden-winged roc that Qin Wentian had transformed into. Its thick and powerful claws directly smashed downwards, aiming for the great roc.
Qin Wentian's cold eyes stared at his opponent. Golden light flashed as his sharp claws similarly smashed towards the great roc. The azure dragon and the great roc collided. In terms of strength, the azure dragon undoubtedly had the upper hand, directly forcing the great roc to retreat.
Qin Wentian's countenance didn't change. His eyes were still fixed on the air, staring at the incantation art as he silently cursed the idiotic azure dragon in his heart.
When Hei Teng saw that Qin Wentian was ignoring him, a malevolent glint flashed in his eyes as he roared, "The first battle will be your doomsday. Scram, this place doesn't belong to you."
As he spoke, his demonic dragon body once again smashed towards Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian's wings flashed as he transformed into a beam of golden light and soared into the air. He didn't clash head-on with his opponent, his eyes were still fixed on the air, wanting to comprehend more runic light. The golden light on the great roc's body grew brighter and brighter. Those huge wings were like golden blades, filled with a sharp aura.
"ROAR!" The demonic dragon roared. Hei Teng naturally understood that he couldn't allow Qin Wentian to comprehend in peace. He had to kill Qin Wentian in the shortest amount of time possible and attack as quickly as possible. Only then would he be able to be ahead of the others.
Hence, a battle of cat and mouse appeared on the screen of light. The golden-winged roc was injured several times, and Qin Wentian, who was standing in front of the stone monument, couldn't help but groan in pain. After another heavy strike, Qin Wentian even spat out a mouthful of blood.
However, within the space of the ancient tablet, the roc's eyes grew even more resplendent. The golden light on its body illuminated the heavens, causing a strange light to flash through Hei Teng's eyes. There seemed to be a hint of anxiety in his eyes, but if he gave up on attacking now and returned to comprehending, he would undoubtedly be weaker than Qin Wentian. He could only continue to attack with his strongest attacks.
At this moment, it wasn't only Hei Teng and Qin Wentian who were fighting. In the air, there were many scenes of the ancient tablets connecting together. This caused the spectators on the floating bridges to understand that this battle was a one-on-one battle.
Not many people paid attention to Qin Wentian's battle. The battle scenes of the eight era-suppressing geniuses attracted the attention of the vast majority. For example, Gu Liufeng chose the ancient tablet that allowed him to be clad in a silvery-white armor. A Sun Shooting Arrow appeared in his hands, exuding a suave and unrestrained aura.
Gu Liufeng's opponent was a Heaven Chosen from one of the nine great sects of the Royal Sacred Region, the Qinghua Mountains. This battle was naturally chosen by Gu Liufeng, how would his opponent dare to choose him as his opponent?
A bright light flashed as Gu Liufeng's bow appeared in his hands. Runic light flashed as the arrow left behind afterimages. A humming sound rang out as the bowstring vibrated unceasingly. His arrow was like a shooting star.
"Puchi …" A light sound rang out as the center of the brows of the Heaven Chosen from the Qinghua Mountains was pierced through. The ancient tablet in front of him instantly dimmed. The eyes of the Heaven Chosen from the Qinghua Mountains opened as he stared in the direction of Gu Liufeng. An expression of desolation could be seen on his face as he coughed out a few mouthfuls of blood. After which, he turned and departed the area.
Gu Liufeng also opened his eyes. He lifted his feet and continued walking forwards, arriving in front of another set of ancient tablets. After which, his perception gushed out as he chose another one and began his cultivation.
"I understand the rules now." On the floating bridge, Fan Le spoke in a low voice. "Infuse your will into the ancient tablets, cultivating the energy within. In there, you can only cultivate the energy within the tablets and not use your own strength to battle. This way, everyone's starting point will be the same."
"That's right, only by defeating one opponent can one proceed to the next one. Gu Liufeng should have already comprehended the energy within the first tablet. By defeating one opponent, he can proceed to the second one and begin comprehending the energy within. This would undoubtedly allow him to gain an advantage." Ouyang Kuangsheng's eyes gleamed with sharpness. If Gu Liufeng also comprehended the energy within the second tablet, it would be even easier for him to attack those who came after him. The disparity between them would only grow greater and greater.
"The stronger one is, the further they can walk on their path, until they leave everyone behind them, becoming the sole existence." Ye Lingshuang's beautiful eyes flashed with a strange light as she stared in the direction of Qin Wentian.
Hei Teng was still relentlessly attacking Qin Wentian. But now, it was no longer a threat to Qin Wentian. That golden roc was growing stronger and stronger.
"He's going to retaliate." Qin Zheng spoke. After which, the spectators only saw Qin Wentian in the form of a golden-winged roc arcing through the skies, diving downwards. Golden light illuminated the skies as his golden wings shone with resplendent runic light. His wings sliced through the air like a gust of wind as his silhouette appeared beneath Hei Teng. After which, Hei Teng's demonic dragon form was directly cleaved into two.
"Pu!" Hei Teng coughed out a mouthful of fresh blood onto the stone monument, causing it to lose its luster. He opened his eyes and stared in the direction of Qin Wentian, his countenance extremely unsightly to behold.
Qin Wentian's eyes were still closed, he was still immersed in comprehending the energy within the stone monument. There were many people like him who were extremely cautious, choosing to focus on comprehending instead of fighting. But as time flowed on, more and more victors appeared, moving towards the stone monument in the front.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed. Initially, there were over seventy people standing before the stone monument, but now, there were only thirty-six remaining.
"Gu Liufeng has already consecutively defeated three people and is moving towards the fourth row. There's only one person standing before the fourth row now." Everyone had expressions of shock on their faces. This Gu Liufeng was too powerful. Every time he was about to comprehend something, he would choose a person to fight against and blast his opponent away.
Also, the spectators discovered that those who walked to the front could choose to attack those weaker than them. For a character like Gu Liufeng, it was impossible for him to stop and wait for others to arrive.
All the geniuses walked towards the stone monument at the same time. To them, it was all fair. If they weren't as fast as the others and were defeated, who else could they blame?
Three days later, the spectators discovered a strange phenomenon. Qin Wentian was actually still standing before the first row of stone monuments. This involuntarily caused a strange expression to appear on the faces of many. Right now, Qin Wentian's name was truly known by everyone.
Gu Liufeng was the first to leave behind, Qin Wentian was the last to arrive!
