In the main hall, the Lord Of Heaven conversed with each other, discussing the meaning of An Yile and Jian Tonghui's words. Everyone was aware of the uniqueness of the Void Temple, such as the Boundless World formed by the Spirit Root of Heaven and Earth, and Qian Xuzi's methods that were close to Golden Immortal. However, from the conversation between the two of them, they could tell that it was not what everyone saw.
Amidst the noisy immortal sense voices, Qian Xuzi sat upright as if he was asleep, turning a deaf ear. After a short exchange among the Lord Of Heaven, they discovered that it seemed that only Shao Zhuoran, Lian Yu, and a few other ordinary Celestial Immortals under Daozu knew. However, they were all smiling and doing other things, such as holding wine cups, tasting immortal fruits, and so on, unwilling to reveal anything.
Shi Xuan was also very curious about this. He turned to look at Kong Ran. She was happy that her husband had gotten rid of most of the knot in his heart. Seeing Shi Xuan look over, she smiled sweetly and said, "It's not convenient for me to reveal senior Qian Xuzi's help here. I'll explain it to fellow Daoist Shi in detail after we go out. En, this is a very interesting place."
Then she added, "I only found out about it from my father by chance before I left. I didn't deliberately hide it before."
Shi Xuan smiled and nodded, "Then after I go out, I'll listen attentively." One thing was certain, Daozu of the Five Elements had intentionally let Kong Ran know about it. It was not a coincidence. A person like him would definitely not leak it out by mistake. It seemed that he still had the intention of helping Jian Tonghui.
As they spoke, Jian Tonghui had already walked back. Shi Xuan smiled and said, "Congratulations fellow Daoist Jian for breaking through the knot in your heart and advancing a step further."
"Congratulations fellow Daoist Jian." Meng Nishang also congratulated him.
Jian Tonghui smiled faintly and said, "Thank you. But the specifics still depend on whether I can cut off the remaining small half of the knot in my heart after I go out. "
Shi Xuan was slightly stunned. The "go out" that Jian Tonghui and Kong Ran mentioned didn't seem to be what he understood?
…
When the competition continued, all the Heavenly Monarchs stopped discussing about the special features of the Taixu Temple. Observing the marvelous cultivation techniques of other sects and broadening their knowledge was the right thing to do. There was no need to think too much about it. After all, if the Taixu Temple really had evil intentions, given Qian Xuzi's half-step Golden Immortal strength, no one present had any power to resist.
After the remaining three battles, the top eleven of the first tribulation powerhouses were all decided. They were: Shao Zhuoran, An Yile, Lian Yu, Shen Yimo, Shi Jingren, Mo Jingqiu, Shi Xuan, Two Hearted Buddha, Yuan Jizi.
"If True Lord Golden Stream, Yuan Jizi and Two Hearted Buddha were replaced by True Lord Jian Tonghui and True Lord Shen Chenxi, they would be in the top ten." A Lord Of Heaven sighed and didn't avoid True Lord Golden Stream, Yuan Jizi and Two Hearted Buddha at all.
On the other hand, the Two-Hearted Buddha chuckled and chanted the name of Buddha in a low voice. "Benefactor Jian Tonghui's breakthrough in the midst of battle is already close to the Second Tribulation, enough to be on par with Perfected Lord Mo and Perfected Lord Shen. As for Perfected Lord Shen Chenxi, he is indeed terrifying to us, even more terrifying than Buddha An Yile and Benefactor Lian Yu."
Yuan Jizi then laughed self-deprecatingly, "I was also extremely lucky and directly got a bye. Hehe, if I really fought True Lord Shen Chenxi, I wouldn't have any chance of winning. "
"However, the few battles that Shi Xuan won were somewhat forced and coincidental. Even though I admire his methods and temperament, I still feel that his strength can't be on par with the other powerful True Lords." An ordinary Celestial Immortal interrupted and seemed to feel that it was a bit far-fetched to rank Shi Xuan, a Lord Of Heaven who had just passed the Degeneration Tribulation and defeated all his opponents with great difficulty, into the top ten. After all, if he was like Yi Tuan, Jian Tonghui and Zhou Zhengshi and encountered An Yile and Lian Yu early on, he wouldn't even have the chance to fight back, and he might not even be able to force them to use their Celestial Arts that could transcend levels.
Even if Shi Xuan fought with Yi Tuan and the others, under the situation where his hidden methods were already known, his chances of winning were slim.
True Lord Golden Stream shook his head and said, "You can't look at it like that. Even if True Lord Shi has no chance of winning against True Lord Shen Chenxi in another battle, being able to come this far without getting a bye, continuously encountering opponents stronger than him, and emerge victorious in a decisive battle, then he deserves to be in the top ten. After all, temperament and methods are a part of strength, and a very important part at that!"
"To be able to enter the top ten by relying on a cultivation level that has just passed the Degeneration Tribulation, this in itself means that he deserves to be in the top ten." Shen Chenxi who had been listening silently suddenly interrupted.
The various Lord Of Heaven gradually came to a consensus as they watched the ordinary Celestial Immortals fight, and began to think about the upcoming exciting battles of the top ten.
"I wonder which one's luck is extremely good and will get a bye? In any case, I probably won't have this opportunity anymore. " After witnessing the strength of An Yile and the others, Yuan Jizi already didn't have much hope for the prize, and didn't think that the Void Temple would let him get a bye consecutively.
Listening to the conversation of these Lord Of Heaven, Kong Ran jokingly said to Shi Xuan, "If Shi Xuan, you get a bye this round, and True Lord Cui Xuan, True Lord Golden Stream and the others are drawn to fight one on one, then in the next round, as long as you draw the winner between them, you have a high chance of entering the top three."
Shi Xuan was speechless, "From the beginning until now, in the consecutive rounds, those six have never fought in advance. Could it be that you still can't see through Temple Head Qian Xuzi's intentions, Fellow Daoist Kong?"
Encountering opponents like An Yile and Lian Yu who have level surpassing immortal arts, Shi Xuan doesn't have the slightest chance of winning if he doesn't use the Five Virtues Luck Claw. Even if it's Shen Yimo, Mo Jingqiu and the others who are slightly weaker, his chances of winning aren't high.
And after using it, even if he wins, he'll have to face another person in the next round. There's basically no hope of getting a prize, the losses outweigh the gains. Moreover, from the previous battles, Qian Xuzi didn't recover the sixth rank secret treasure he used, in order to ensure relative fairness, making things that can only be used once unable to be used consecutively.
Of course, if he cultivated to their level, and his immortal arts also improved, then it would be a different matter.
"It's a pity that I can't see Shi Xuan create a miracle." Kong Ran said with a half-smile and half-emotion, not pinning her hopes on the indiscernible drawing of lots.
…
An hour passed, and the battle of ordinary Sky Immortals ended. The outside of the Taixu Temple is still dark and green, without the change of day and night.
Qian Xuzi glanced at the boy next to him and said with a smile, "This time, I'll shake out the matchups of the five battles at the same time, lest everyone waits anxiously and makes wild guesses."
"As you command, Temple Master," the boy replied respectfully.
Thus, under the anticipation of the Lord Of Heaven, the lot pot began to shake, and there were only eleven bamboo sticks left inside.
"Shen Yimo, Shen Zhenjun." The boy was the first to shake Shen Yimo.
After the drawing of lots, the Lord Of Heaven who thought they knew what was going to happen all said quietly, "I wonder which of the five of Shi Xuan, Yan Sheng, and the others will it be?"
The boy continued to shake the lot pot, and the bamboo stick fell to the ground with a thud. All the Lord Of Heaven's expressions froze:
"Shao Zhuoran, Shao Zhenjun."
"They actually met ahead of time?!" "Could it be that Temple Master Qian Xuzi doesn't have the same thoughts as us?" "Could it really be a random draw?"
Amidst the astonished discussions, True Lord Golden Stream, Two-Hearted Buddha, and the others couldn't help but feel a trace of anticipation. If they could pass this round, they could totally use secret treasures to fight for the top six!
"True Lord Golden Stream, Li Xinxuan." In the blink of an eye, the boy shook out another bamboo stick.
Under True Lord Golden Stream's expectant gaze, another bamboo stick flew out: "True Lord Calamity, Lian Yu."
"Whew." True Lord Golden Stream let out a long sigh and gave up. It was better to seize the opportunity to experience disaster immortal arts.
"True Lord Mo Jingqiu, Mo Jingqiu." "Two-Hearted Buddha." This matchup didn't cause the slightest ripple.
"True Lord Yuan Jizi." "Buddha An Yile" thought of the strange horror of the Karma Lotus Embryo, and all the Lord Of Heaven looked at Yuan Jizi with sympathy.
There was only one matchup left. Kong Ran looked at Shi Xuan with a smile, as if saying that he had a high chance of entering the top six.
"True Lord Yuntu, Shi Jingren." Another bamboo stick flew out of the three in the lot pot.
The other True Lords all looked at Shi Xuan and Yan Sheng. Which one of them would be the luckiest?
The lot pot shook, and the two bamboo sticks inside kept colliding and shaking as if they were reluctant to leave, attracting the attention of all the Lord Of Heaven.
Finally, a bamboo stick flew out. While it was still drawing a beautiful trajectory in the air, everyone already knew who it was. They sighed in their hearts and looked forward to it.
"Shi Xuan, True Lord Shi."
…
"It's a match between the two of them?! I'm afraid it's going to be very exciting! "
"Enemies really do meet." After talking with each other, almost everyone knew that Shi Xuan and Shi Jingren had a grudge against each other.
"Apart from the match between True Lord Shen and True Lord Shao, I look forward to this match the most!"
Shi Xuan raised his head and looked at Shi Jingren. Shi Jingren also looked at him.
When their eyes met, Shi Jingren smiled warmly, raised his cup, and threw his head back. Shi Xuan smiled calmly and raised his cup. The atmosphere seemed very harmonious.
Meng Nishang thought for a while and said to Shi Xuan, "That's good." She was comforting Shi Xuan, meaning that compared to entering the top six, it was more important to fight with Shi Jingren again and experience the progress of his Destiny Immortal Art.
Shi Xuan nodded. Compared to the Rank 7 Secret Treasure that he obtained in front of everyone and the Rank 7 Secret Technique that not many people knew about, it was clear that the latter was more useful in a life-and-death battle.
…
One sword turned into a world, and light and darkness spread. Shen Yimo's sword was already at the peak of the second tribulation and below. It was even stronger than the last sword strike that Jian Tonghui had used on An Yile. It could barely resist an ordinary seventh-grade immortal art that had just been learned.
Facing such a strong opponent, Shao Zhuoran did not dare to be careless. He summoned his Law Phenomenon and punched out, shattering everything, the world, and the vacuum.
By the time the chain collapses and the spatial storms in the broken world subsided, Shen Yimo was already sitting in the air. Her body was covered in tiny cracks, and she looked like a statue made of sand that would dissipate with a gust of wind. She no longer had the strength to fight.
On the other side, Shao Zhuoran stood proudly with a hole on his body. Countless light holes and black holes were destroying and devouring the nearby primordial spirits, but it was only a serious injury.
"True Lord Shao wins!"
This was a memorable and exciting match. Both sides only used one attack.
Then, Lian Yu, Mo Jingqiu, and An Yile defeated their respective opponents, either injured or unharmed. Including Yan Sheng, there was only one left in the top six.
Shi Xuan and Shi Jingren stood up at the same time.
