Xuan Daoqi extended his finger and pointed. The boundless sea of flames instantly dimmed and turned into clusters of flames, as if it was going to be extinguished at any moment.
Zi Yan's sword was blocked by Xuan Daoqi's finger. The moment the two of them exchanged blows, the entire world seemed to have stopped. Zi Yan's body was in the air, supported by flames. She stood in the air. When the flames in her hand collided with Xuan Daoqi's finger, the sword turned back into flames.
Xuan Daoqi's face was pale and a trace of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth. Xuan Daoqi had overdrawn part of his blood essence to activate that finger. If he hadn't used his blood essence, he wouldn't have been able to block Zi Yan's sword. Moreover, he might have been pierced by Zi Yan's sword. Even if he didn't die, he would be seriously injured. He might not even be able to participate in the competition.
The flames around Zi Yan's body dimmed. Her body that was floating in the air also fell to the ground.
As long as one hadn't reached the Emptiness Realm, one wouldn't be able to fly in the air. Zi Yan could rely on the power of her flames to stay in the air for a short period of time. However, she wasn't a Emptiness Realm expert after all. She couldn't stay in the air for a long time.
Zi Yan looked at Xuan Daoqi with an ice-cold expression. She did not feel the slightest bit annoyed that Xuan Daoqi had blocked her sword attack. She merely looked at him calmly, and her jade-like palm gently grasped at Xuan Daoqi from afar.
The originally dim flames burned once again, turning into a sea of flames. The battle stage instantly sank and was melted by the terrifying flames. The bluestone beneath their feet turned into a viscous liquid, flowing slowly like magma.
Zi Yan's strength shocked everyone. Even Shen Fei sat up straight and stretched his body forward. His expression was grave as he looked at Zi Yan on the martial arts stage.
Shen Fei had always regarded Xuan Daoqi as his greatest opponent because Xuan Daoqi's Dao of Divination was too strange and unpredictable. As long as it didn't exceed the scope of the Heavenly Dao, Xuan Daoqi would be able to deduce his opponent's next attack. This kind of opponent was very troublesome. When fighting against Xuan Daoqi, one must be calm and not have any thoughts. Every move must be executed randomly, not allowing Xuan Daoqi to deduce the next move.
However, even so, Xuan Daoqi still suffered a loss in Zi Yan's hands. From this, one could see how strong Zi Yan was.
On a tall building outside the venue of the Ranking List of Young Masters.
The Enchanted Moon and the Empress stood quietly on top of the stage as they looked at Zi Yan. The demon said coldly, "This woman is the disciple of the Emperor, right?"
The Empress stretched lazily and said with great interest, "It shouldn't be wrong. Before the Emperor went into seclusion, he divined that she would appear in the Ranking List of Young Masters. He asked us to keep an eye on her. If her strength is good, we can bring her into the Hades."
Enchanted Moon nodded. She recognized Zi Yan's strength very much. According to the strength that Zi Yan had shown so far, if the two of them were at the same level, they might not necessarily be Zi Yan's match. Of course, this was only a guess. Without a concrete fight, no one could say for sure.
Most of the people in the Hades were summoned by Shenlang from the System Space. They were all relatively strong people at the same level. Although Zi Yan had the Phoenix Blood on her and Ci Hang's simple help, the people in the Hades also had their own trump cards. If they fought to the death, it was still unknown who would win.
"After the competition, we can bring her into the Hades."
The Empress said slowly.
...
At this time, Zi Yan still did not know that she had been recognized and was still working hard for her goal. Xuan Daoqi was indeed strong. Although Zi Yan had a slight upper hand, she did not have the slightest carelessness. Now that she had used all her trump cards, Xuan Daoqi was not seriously injured, which meant that Xuan Daoqi still had the strength to fight.
Xuan Daoqi's face was getting paler and paler, but his fingers were constantly moving. All the Phoenix Flames that were close to him were extinguished. At this moment, Xuan Daoqi was like a chess player who used all living beings as chess pieces. He pointed out a finger, which was simple and ordinary.
As soon as his finger pointed out, he took a step forward. Using the Eight Trigrams technique, he appeared in front of Zi Yan. His finger did not deviate and hit Zi Yan's forehead.
Facing Xuan Daoqi's finger, Zi Yan seemed to be unable to resist. Her body was fixed on the spot, and she did not resist at all. She allowed Xuan Daoqi's finger to hit her forehead.
"Hmm?"
Seeing this scene, all the spectators frowned. They did not know how Zi Yan could be so easily hit by Xuan Daoqi's attack with her strength.
Just when everyone thought that the battle was over and Zi Yan was defeated, Zi Yan's body suddenly turned into a cluster of flames and disappeared in front of Xuan Daoqi.
"Fire Spirit Body?"
The experts of the various major forces all stood up. That woman called Zi Yan had actually cultivated the Fire Spirit Body. One must know that the Fire Spirit Body was similar to the Sword Body. The Sword Body could control swords by nature. No matter what kind of sword it was, it would be controlled by the Sword Body. However, the Fire Spirit Body was even more strange. It could turn one's body into flames to avoid any kind of energy attack.
Right after Zi Yan disappeared, a fiery light appeared at the edge of the battle stage. Zi Yan's figure slowly appeared there.
The corners of Xuan Daoqi's mouth curved. It was as if he already knew where Zi Yan would appear. The moment Zi Yan appeared, Xuan Daoqi had already turned around. A long sword flickering with brilliance suddenly flew out from his sleeve and landed in his hand.
"Virtuous people carry things, a gentleman must constantly strive for self-improvement."
What this sword slashed was the power, and also the illusory Dao.
The battle between Zi Yan and Xuan Daoqi allowed the crowd to see how powerful they were. The two of them were only at the Innate Realm. Yet, when they fought, it was like a battle between Emptiness Realm experts. All kinds of Dao and principles were contained in their battle. It was similar to a battle between Emptiness Realm experts.
Although Zi Yan had cultivated the Fire Spirit's Body, she was unable to constantly use the Fire Escape Technique. She did not dodge when faced with Xuan Daoqi's strike that contained the laws of the world. Instead, she used the final move of the Benevolent Travel Sword Scripture.
"Anatta Sword, Brilliant Sword Heart."
Her two fingers were like swords. In Zi Yan's eyes, there was only Xuan Daoqi's figure in the entire world.
Weng!!!
When the two attacks collided, a spatial fluctuation spread out. Although the two attacks did not break through space, the power that was produced was extremely terrifying.
The battle stage instantly collapsed. The two of them were engulfed by a resplendent light and disappeared.
Whoosh!!!
Two figures rushed into the battle stage. Enchanted Moon and Daoist Monk Mu both appeared on the battle stage. Each of them carried a person and flew out of the battle stage.
Zi Yan's condition was slightly better. She had only suffered some impact and was slightly unconscious. As for Xuan Daoqi, he vomited blood and was seriously injured.
