"I'm afraid this battle will be the most influential one in the past twenty years."
Yan Fengfeng and Ye Chen and Hai Wuya were from the same sect, so they naturally brought the disciples of the Mysterious Martial School to this small mountain.
Hai Wuya nodded, "Five years ago, the battle between Sword Master Lu Shaoyou and Xiao Chuhe was not this popular. But, it is also because of that battle that we are able to have such a grand occasion today!"
Lu Shaoyou was the leader of the top three young sword masters, and also one of the top five young warriors. Although there were a lot of people watching the battle between him and Xiao Chuhe, it was not as big as today. But, after Xiao Chuhe had lost to Lu Shaoyou, he had trained hard for three years, and his power had reached an unfathomable level. He had even beaten Shen Qianlang, one of the top three blade master level warriors, which had made the older generation of master level warriors realize that the top five young warriors were not as simple as they had thought. If they did not take it seriously, then they might be beaten by the top five young warriors one by one in the future. Therefore, the battle between Xia Houzun and Bai Wuxue had caused such a huge commotion.
Looking at the Sea of Souls Realm warriors that could be seen everywhere, Ye Chen could not help but shake his head. Among the older generation warriors, not to mention master level Sea of Souls Realm warriors, even spirit warriors were rare. In fact, even normal Sea of Souls Realm warriors were extremely rare in the whole South Rudra Region. The top six rank 6 martial institutions would each have seven to eight Sea of Souls Realm warriors, which would be around fifty in total. The Murong family had more Sea of Souls Realm warriors, around thirty of them. Adding some of the Sea of Souls Realm warriors who did not belong to any martial institutions, there would be around one to two hundred of them. Of course, there might be some Sea of Souls Realm warriors who stayed outside all the time and did not come back to the South Rudra Region. But overall, the overall power of the South Rudra Region was indeed extremely weak.
Murong Qingcheng was obviously thinking the same thing as Ye Chen. She frowned slightly, a helpless look in her eyes.
"South Rudra Region, Yan Chihuo and Li Daoxuan have both reached the Sea of Souls Realm." Murong Qingcheng said.
"I think it is about time for them to make it."
Yan Chihuo and Li Daoxuan were the top martial geniuses of the South Rudra Region after all. Plus, they were not that young anymore, being close to thirty years old. Of course, one could not forget about one person, which was Sikong Sheng. Thinking about it, the possibility of Sikong Sheng reaching the Sea of Souls Realm was quite high.
In the afternoon, the number of people arriving at the Nine Dragon Lake reached a new high. There were tens of thousands of people, most of whom were Sea of Souls Realm warriors. There were more than six hundred master level Sea of Souls Realm warriors. Perhaps, this number would not break through for a long time.
Because almost all of the master level Sea of Souls Realm warriors had arrived.
"Look! It is Dantai Mingyue!"
In the sky, a beautiful woman in a red dress flew over while riding on a huge bird with five-colored feathers. She was just like Murong Qingcheng, with a light veil covering her face. However, it was not black, but red.
Dantai Mingyue came alone and landed on a towering tree.
On top of the cliff, Du Gujue, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and looked at Dantai Mingyue. The battling intent in his eyes was not hidden at all.
"The top three martial geniuses are all here. It seems like their cultivation is the same, all at peak level Mid Sea of Souls Realm."
"Judging from the results so far, Ye Chen is slightly more powerful. Du Gujue and Dantai Mingyue have not made any moves in the past two years."
"It is true that Dantai Mingyue has not made any moves, but Du Gujue had beaten Tai Shichong, one of the top young warriors, a couple of months ago. He has already reached the top of the young warriors."
"I wonder if the top three martial geniuses will compete with each other?"
"I don't think so. It is not the right time yet, and it would be pointless. Just like the top five young warriors, once they make their moves, the whole world will be shocked."
The gathering of the top three martial geniuses had made the atmosphere in the Nine Dragon Lake a lot more intense. Perhaps right now, with the top five young warriors in power, the top three martial geniuses would not be able to compete with them yet. But as time went on, most of the people thought that the top three martial geniuses would definitely challenge the top five young warriors and replace their positions. However, the condition was that they would have to improve fast enough.
Shoo!
A beam of sword light shot over from afar, its sword qi shooting into the sky. Before the person had even arrived, the wind and clouds had already started to change, as if it was not a human but a great sword.
It was indeed Tai Shichong.
"It seems like he has successfully reached the Late Sea of Souls Realm. His power has improved quite a bit." Ye Chen could tell with a glance that Tai Shichong was at the Late Sea of Souls Realm right now. His Zhen yuan was as rich as the ocean, and his qi was extremely powerful. Of course, the improvement in his cultivation was not that big of a deal. What was worth mentioning was that every time a Sea of Souls Realm warrior made a breakthrough, there would be a temporary state of being one with the world.
It was because of this state that Ye Chen had managed to train his Gold Resonant Radiance Sword Art to one hundred and thirty percent. After that, he had created his gold pattern, which was also influenced by the state of being one with the world. After all, creating a mid-rank profound sense martial art would require a certain level of comprehension.
"Du Gujue, do you dare to battle?"
Once he appeared, Tai Shichong stared at Du Gujue, who was sitting in meditation with his eyes closed, and yelled.
"What? Tai Shichong wants to challenge Du Gujue? "
"What is so strange about that? Tai Shichong's power had increased a lot, so of course, he would want to win back his dignity and beat Du Gujue. I wonder if he would accept the challenge or not."
Everyone's gaze landed on Du Gujue.
Du Gujue opened his eyes again and looked at Tai Shichong coldly, "It seems like you are quite confident that you can beat me."
"Cut the bullsh * t! Do you dare to battle?"
Tai Shichong's eyes were sharp.
Slowly standing up, Du Gujue said, "Why not?"
"Alright, you and I will battle in the lake."
Tai Shichong flew toward the center of the lake.
Shoo!
His body flashed once, and Du Gujue shot out like a deadly blade.
"I did not expect the two to battle again."
Hai Wuya stared at the center of the lake.
"Du Gujue, take this!"
Stepping on the lake water, Tai Shichong and Du Gujue started to battle. All of a sudden, the blade light and the sword shadow spread out everywhere, and the lake water was split apart by the two.
This battle lasted for a whole three hundred attacks. Within those three hundred attacks, the two had performed their most powerful attacks one after another. It was not hard to tell that Du Gujue did not have the upper hand like the first time, and Tai Shichong, whose power had increased drastically, was not able to suppress Du Gujue like he had expected.
"Despair Blade!"
Finally, Du Gujue was forced to use his ace attack. Within that white rainbow-like blade light, the images of all living beings appeared on it, and the despair qi spread out everywhere.
"Du Gujue, if you only have this one attack, then you will lose for sure this time."
Tai Shichong's body jumped into the air as he stabbed out a sword attack toward that white rainbow-like blade light. That sword attack gave people the illusion that it was unstoppable, as if it was a sword attack coming down from the sky.
"A more complete natural sword!"
Ye Chen's pupils shrank. That day, Tai Shichong's usual attack was a natural sword finger art. Heaven and earth represented the earth, which was also the profound of earth, carrying everything. Sky was replaced by the profound of water. However, back then, Tai Shichong's natural sword was just a rough combination of the profound of earth and water. But right now, the two seemed to have reached a deeper level. That sword attack seemed to be the judgment of the sky sword.
Right now, Tai Shichong's power was no weaker than Lin Tian's.
Pooh!
Du Gujue could not handle that sword attack, and blood leaked out from the corner of his mouth.
"Du Gujue lost?"
Everyone gasped.
Dantai Mingyue looked calm, not moving at all.
"Du Gujue, you have lost!"
After successfully beating Du Gujue, a smile appeared on Tai Shichong's face.
Wiping the blood off his mouth, Du Gujue lifted up his eyes and said, "Oh yeah? I don't think I will beat you with one blade attack. "
"Arrogant!"
Hearing him, Tai Shichong frowned. He thought that Du Gujue was just being stubborn.
"Whether I am arrogant or not, you will know soon enough. Take my true despairing blade attack."
As he spoke, Du Gujue's aura changed drastically. His whole body sank into a despairing aura, and from that despairing aura, a horrifying power was born. This power was extremely evil, turning Du Gujue into an evil spirit wrapped in despair.
Haha!
The sound of the long blade slicing through the air was heard. It was an extremely horrifying sound; it was actually a twisted laughter. Once the person heard it, his face turned pale, and his body started to twitch uncontrollably. It seemed like he had encountered something that made him feel hopeless.
"Hm?"
One of the top five young warriors, Xiao Chuhe, who had been watching the whole time, frowned. There were not many things that could make him frown.
The Sword Master Lu Shaoyou also seemed to be thinking about something.
Swoosh!
Facing this blade attack, Tai Shichong could not react at all and was blown away, falling into a coma. Soon, a couple of people who were close to Tai Shichong helped him to the corner and stared at Du Gujue with pale faces. They could not imagine how Du Gujue had become this horrifying all of a sudden.
Dong!
What happened next shocked everyone even more. They saw Du Gujue slap on his forehead, making a loud sound. Then, his whole body seemed to return to normal. However, his face was even paler, as if he had used up a lot of mental energy.
"Strange … His whole body has fallen into a despairing aura, as if he is trying to get more power out of it." Ye Chen studied Du Gujue, who was still meditating with his eyes closed.
"I did not expect Du Gujue to be this powerful. It seems like we have underestimated him."
"Yeah! Even if Tai Shichong's power is not as powerful as Lin Tian's, it should not be too far off. But, he still could not take one blade attack from Du Gujue. But, Du Gujue does not look that good either. He must have used some power that he could not control. "
Everyone was a bit surprised by this result.
"This Du Gujue is so powerful! I would like to see him for myself. But, he is not in his best condition right now. I am afraid he would not be able to take one attack from me."
In a pavilion next to the lake, an evil-looking young man with a face as white as powder waved his fan and said lightly.
"Lan Xieqing, you had the upper hand in the battle with Lin Tian back then. Why don't you spar with him again?" Someone beside him said.
The young man called Lan Xieqing shook his head, "Before that, I might have been interested in fighting with him once. Unfortunately, he lost, and to a brat who has just come out of nowhere. Challenging him is not what I want. Fine, I will go challenge Ye Chen. Let's see what he has to beat Lin Tian."
As he spoke, the evil-looking young man stood up and looked in Ye Chen's direction, yelling, "Ye Chen, do you dare to take ten attacks from me?"
"Eh? It is Lan Xieqing! He wants to challenge Ye Chen!"
Before one wave had subsided, another wave arose. Everyone's attention was drawn over.
"Lan Xieqing!"
Du Gujue opened his eyes tiredly.
"Two years ago, he had the upper hand in the battle with Lin Tian. Today, he wants to challenge Ye Chen, who had beaten Lin Tian. This is going to be interesting."
"Yeah! Everyone says that Ye Chen is powerful, but I don't even know how powerful he is. Is it because Lin Tian has fallen, or is it because Ye Chen is really powerful? Perhaps we will find out now."
