"Tomb guardians of the Luo Clan, step forward!"
As soon as the voice fell, the eyes of countless old monsters in the audience immediately lit up.
On one side was Chen Xiao who was the strongest among the eighth grade tomb guardians. On the other side was the tomb guardian of the Battle King Luo Clan. A battle of this level would surely be very exciting.
The Clan Lord of the Chen Clan smiled coldly. His lips moved but no sound came out. Obviously, he was transmitting his voice to someone.
Chen Xiao who was standing at the center of the venue was expressionless, waiting for the upcoming battle. Suddenly, he heard a voice. His eyes immediately turned cold. In the next moment, an indiscernible ferocious light flashed across his eyes.
There were only four words in the voice.
"Don't show mercy!"
The Sixth Ancestor of the Luo Clan sighed slightly and said to Luo Xuan, Luo Xiao and the others behind him. "Ning Fan hasn't arrived yet. I suppose he won't come. The seven of you, go on stage. Don't feel pressured. It doesn't matter even if you lose. With the foundation of our Luo Clan, we don't need to rely on this tomb competition to fight for power … "
Luo Xuan's beautiful eyes moved. She could not help but look at the sky and let out a faint sigh. Her heart was filled with regret. Why didn't he come to such a grand event …
The seven tomb guardians of the Luo Clan leaped and flew to the periphery of the venue.
When they saw that there were only seven tomb guardians from the Luo Clan participating in the competition, many old monsters said in surprise. "Strange. Didn't the Luo Clan have eight quotas? Why did they only send seven tomb guardians? Although there were a few tomb guardians who were absent in the previous competitions, there has never been a case where the tomb guardians of a ninth grade force were absent … "
"Is this kid not going to participate in the competition …?" On the northern platform, the Ninth Elder Luo Shi sighed softly.
Among the eight tomb guardians of the Luo Clan, Ning Fan was undoubtedly the strongest. If it was him, he might have the strength to fight Chen Xiao. As for the others, they would probably suffer a miserable defeat in Chen Xiao's hands …
Beside Luo Shi, the Eighth Elder Lei Jinshi narrowed his eyes and glanced at the seven tomb guardians of the Luo Clan. His lips curled into a sinister smile.
"Since Ning Fan didn't come, it's most likely that Qing Yangzi has already succeeded and killed him in the last level of the Fiendgod Realm! That kid is said to be the strongest person in the Luo Clan. Once he dies, the Battle King will no longer have the chance to awaken. That's good! "
"But Qing Yangzi has already been in the last three levels for two years, why hasn't he come out yet? If it wasn't for the fact that his life token hasn't shattered, I would have thought that he had died at the bottom of the Fiendgod Realm … "
On the seats of the Four Meridians Sect, Li Xiaoxiao, who had been nibbling on the Eight Treasures Cake, suddenly froze, looking at the seven tomb keepers of the Luo Family with great surprise.
Strange, strange … She clearly heard that Ning Fan had become the gravekeeper of Luo Family. Why didn't he come?
If it was not because she heard that Ning Fan had become the tomb keeper of the Luo Clan, she would not have come to watch the tomb competition …
Sitting next to her was another female cultivator from the Four Meridians Sect. Like Li Xiao Xiao, she was also at the early-stage Crossing Truth Realm.
This woman was called Yan Rong, and she had a cold and indifferent personality. However, she was one of the few good friends that Li Xiao Xiao had in the Four Mystic Sect.
Yan Rong looked at the seven tomb keepers of the Luo Clan and asked curiously, "Sister Li, among the seven tomb keepers of the Luo Clan, which one is the Casanova Brother that you talk about every day?"
"He … he doesn't seem to be here …" Li Xiaoxiao said weakly.
"He didn't come? Could it be that he's afraid of losing in the tomb competition, so he's hiding and not daring to show his face … After all, your Casanova Brother is just an intermediate-stage Ghost Profound Realm expert … and the opponent of the Luo Clan is Chen Xiao … Unfortunately, among the seven tomb keepers of the Luo Clan, the one with the highest cultivation base is just Du Zhen who hasn't stabilized his cultivation base yet. If nothing unexpected happens, I'm afraid all seven of them will be defeated by Chen Xiao alone. "
Yan Rong's beautiful eyes stared at Chen Xiao who was standing at the center of the venue.
Given her cold personality, she would rarely be kind to a male cultivator who was at the same level as her, but this Chen Xiao was worthy of her special treatment.
"Nonsense! In my Casanova Brother's dictionary, there's no such thing as fear … Even when his cultivation base was still low, he dared to go against me! He has never been afraid of anything! He must have been delayed by something since he didn't come! His strength can't be measured by the standard of ordinary people. Although he's only an intermediate-stage Ghost Profound Realm, he might not lose to that Chen Pao if he enters the arena! "Li Xiaoxiao said indignantly.
"It's not Chen Pao, it's Chen Xiao …" Yan Rong burst into laughter. A moment later, she revealed a cold expression and said indifferently.
"Your Casanova Brother is only an intermediate-stage Ghost Profound Realm expert. No matter how powerful he is, he can't be a match for Chen Xiao. This is the reality. Even if he enters the arena, I don't think he has the slightest chance of winning against Chen Xiao. "
"Humph! My Casanova Brother is indeed powerful. He won't lose to that Chen Pao! "
Li Xiaoxiao glared at Yan Rong angrily and fiercely took a big bite of the Eight Treasures Cake.
She thought, Why isn't Ning Fan here yet? Hurry up and defeat that Chen Pao, so that Yan Rong can see how powerful her Casanova Brother is!
On the seats of the Four Pavilions, the little demoness was sitting in front of everyone. Her black gem-like eyes were staring at the seven tomb keepers of the Luo Clan with a trace of worry.
She had received the news that Ning Fan was already a tomb keeper of the Luo Clan and would represent the Luo Clan to participate in the tomb competition. However, he actually didn't come …
"With his personality, once he has decided to do something, he certainly won't give up halfway … Is it because he has no intention to participate in the tomb competition … or did something unexpected happen and he can't make it in time? I heard that he has entered the last three levels of the Divine Tomb and hasn't returned yet. I hope nothing bad has happened to him …"
"Miss seems to be overly concerned about the tomb keeper of the Luo Clan who hasn't arrived yet. First, you ordered me to investigate this person's current situation, then you ordered me to secretly take care of the Spirit Platform Star that this person is in charge of. You even ordered me to help this person gather information about Lightning Emperor Tai Su … If I may be so bold to ask, could it be that Miss has fallen in love with this person?! "A slightly unfriendly voice suddenly came from behind the Little Demoness.
It was a half-step Divine Void Realm elder with the surname Lu. He was carrying three long swords on his back. His body was surrounded by sharp sword qi. His expression was harsh and merciless. He was sent by the Void Sovereign to protect the little demoness.
"Elder Lu, why are you joking? Given my identity, do I have the qualification to fall in love with anyone? "The little demoness said with a smile.
Although she was smiling, there was a hint of self-mockery and bitterness in her heart …
"It's great that Miss can recognize your identity! As a sacrificial offering, you must destroy your emotions and nature to maintain the purity of your Dao Heart. If the Void Sovereign knows that you have fallen in love with this man, I'm afraid he will immediately send someone to kill you! I'm afraid that you, as a sacrificial offering, will come to an end. You won't be able to escape death! As for the Xiao Clan behind you, I'm afraid that they will also cause a huge disaster because of your impulsiveness! "Elder Lu said coldly.
"There's no need for Elder Lu to remind me. I can recognize my identity!" The little demoness was still smiling. No change in her emotions could be seen.
However, she had already clenched her fists that were hidden in her sleeves. Her fingernails pierced into her palms. Although it was painful, it could remind her to stay calm.
"Ning Fan, do you know that when I was at the Li Hen Mountain that year, I saw you risking your life to lay out a Void Realm Grand Formation with a mere Harmonious Spirit cultivation base. You disregarded everything and went against fate. Not everyone can fight against fate like you. You can, but I can't …"
"Initially, I wanted to give you a gift during the grand competition. But now, it seems like I can't give it to you for the time being …"
The little demoness sighed softly. There was a jade slip of information hidden in her sleeves.
In that jade slip,
The little demoness had used countless forces to secretly gather detailed information for Ning Fan – all the information about Lightning Emperor Tai Su.
On the eastern seats, the old ancestor of the Ghost Weapon Sect was holding a storage pouch. He was going to give it to one of the tomb keepers of the Luo Clan.
But when he saw that there were only seven tomb keepers of the Luo Clan and Ning Fan wasn't here, his eyes immediately turned serious and he sat back down.
"The Star Defying Demonic Armor has been refined, but Little Friend Ning isn't here … This old man has specially come here to deliver this armor to him. Did I come here for nothing …" The old ancestor of the Ghost Weapon Sect said with slight regret.
* Dong Dong Dong *
All of a sudden, the sound of the drums became louder, as if it was urging the tomb keepers of the Luo Clan to quickly get on the stage and fight Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao's expression was cold. His eyes swept across the seven tomb keepers of the Luo Clan outside the venue and said arrogantly.
"Who among you wants to go first?!"
Luo Xuan took a step forward and was about to fight Chen Xiao. Wang Meng was also rubbing his palms, eager to fight Chen Xiao.
However, Luo Xiao jumped to the center of the venue before everyone else. His eyes were filled with burning battle intent. He cupped his fists at Chen Xiao and said.
"Luo Xiao of the Luo Clan is here to learn from Brother Chen!"
"Luo Xiao, is it …?" The corner of Chen Xiao's mouth curled upwards. His smile actually contained a hint of coldness.
According to the information he had obtained, Luo Xiao had already cultivated the Second Transformation of the War God Art. His combat strength could be ranked in the top ten of the Luo Clan …
If this person is destroyed, the chance of the War King awakening will be even slimmer!
"Oh? The first person from the Luo Clan is actually Luo Xiao? This person has already broken through to the Late Ghost Profound Realm and has cultivated the Second Transformation of the War Art of the Luo Clan. I'm afraid he won't be defeated so quickly even if he fights against Du Zhen … It won't be easy for Chen Xiao to defeat Luo Xiao … "
Many old monsters on the audience seats had this thought. In the next instant, their eyes changed!
Luo Xiao had just formed hand seals with his ten fingers and was about to cast the Second Transformation of the War God to fight Chen Xiao with all his might.
However, before he could finish forming hand seals, Chen Xiao had already made his move. Without giving Luo Xiao a chance to attack with all his might, Chen Xiao grabbed the air with his five fingers. Immediately, seven rays of golden light floated towards Luo Xiao like spirit snakes!
"It's the Chen Clan's' Metal Extinguishing Technique '! Chen Xiao must have cultivated this technique to the seventh realm. Otherwise, it's impossible for him to cast seven rays of golden light! " On the audience seats, many old monsters Du Zhen's expression changed. They were extremely afraid of the Chen Clan's Metal Extinguishing Technique.
Luo Xiao's expression changed drastically. Without saying a word, he took out a High-Grade Immortal Sword and slashed at the seven rays of golden light.
At the same time, he retreated and accelerated his hand seals. In a panic, he still managed to cast the Second Transformation of the War God's Art.
The quality of the High-Grade Flying Sword was extraordinary. However, as soon as it was hit by the golden light, it immediately rusted and decayed at an extremely fast speed.
Luo Xiao did not plan to block Chen Xiao's attack with a High-Grade Flying Sword. Using the flying sword to buy some time, his black hair gradually turned blood-red. Countless blood-red scales grew on his body, and a pair of blood-red bull horns grew on his head.
In just a few breaths, his physical strength skyrocketed to the peak of the seventh slash of the Celestial Physique.
Even the aura of an ordinary peak Ghost Mystic Realm cultivator was not as powerful as Luo Xiao's when he cultivated both physical and magical techniques!
"Divine War Dao, Battle King's Halberd!"
Luo Xiao roared. Suddenly, the blood-red light turned into a red crystal trident. He threw it out. Countless thunderous roars instantly resounded between heaven and earth.
This attack was infinitely close to the power of Du Zhen's attack!
The seven rays of golden light collided with the Battle King's Halberd fiercely. The roars were endless. Immediately, three rays of golden light were directly shattered.
The remaining four rays of golden light were like spiritual snakes, entangling the body of the halberd. As Chen Xiao's hand seals changed again, countless bloody rusts immediately appeared on the Battle King's Halberd. Then, it instantly decayed into ashes!
"Oh no!"
Luo Xiao was shocked. He immediately retreated and summoned his Spirit Armor at the same time to protect himself.
After the four rays of golden light destroyed the Battle King's Halberd, they immediately rushed toward Luo Xiao's face. However, with a flash of golden light, they landed on Luo Xiao's Spirit Armor in an instant.
The Spirit Armor instantly decayed into ashes, but the power of the golden light did not diminish. It continued to hit Luo Xiao's chest.
Luo Xiao immediately spat out blood and was sent flying. Large patches of rust appeared on his chest.
"Luo Xiao has lost …"
The Sixth Patriarch of the Luo Clan sighed slightly. He had already expected this result.
However, a moment later, he suddenly revealed an extremely shocked and angry expression!
He had expected Luo Xiao to lose, but he did not expect Chen Xiao to be so ruthless!
"Explode!"
Chen Xiao changed his hand seals and shouted a word coldly. Immediately, four rays of golden light exploded in Luo Xiao's body.
A destructive decaying force immediately wreaked havoc in Luo Xiao's body.
In just an instant, Luo Xiao, who had just stabilized his footing, exploded into countless pieces of flesh and blood!
Luo Xiao's Primordial Spirit carried the storage bag and escaped from his body in anger. Then, he turned around and fled out of the venue.
Chen Xiao sneered. He moved his body and blocked Luo Xiao's path of retreat. Then, he raised his hand and another seven rays of golden light flew toward Luo Xiao!
He wanted to kill Luo Xiao right here and now!
"Hiss! Is Chen Xiao crazy? How dare he kill a cultivator of the Luo Clan?! "Countless old monsters in the audience were shocked.
Although the tomb contest did not ask about life and death and killing was allowed, there were only a few people who dared to kill someone in the tomb contest.
Especially Chen Xiao, a Level Eight Tomb Keeper, who killed a Level Nine Tomb Keeper, it was almost unheard of.
If he killed Luo Xiao, it would mean that he had offended the Battle King Luo Clan.
The Chen Clan's foundation was far inferior to the Luo Clan's, but he dared to kill Luo Xiao. Naturally, many people were shocked.
"Oh no!"
Ninth Elder Luo Shi immediately raised his hand and tried to save Luo Xiao when he saw Luo Xiao's life hanging by a thread.
Lei Jinshi, the eighth elder, sneered as he waved his hand in front of Luo Shi, stopping him from making a move.
"Ninth Elder, have you forgotten the rules of the tomb contest? No one is allowed to interfere with the tomb contest. Have you forgotten that?! "
Luo Shi did not have time to make a move. On the other side, the Sixth Elder of the Luo Clan did not have time to make a move either. Another person appeared in front of him. It was the Chen Clan's Patriarch, Chen Xuan!
"Is the Chen Clan determined to be enemies with the Luo Clan?!" The Sixth Elder of the Luo Clan said angrily.
"Haha, so what?" Chen Xuan sneered.
In the center of the venue, seven rays of golden light slashed down. Luo Xiao's Primordial Spirit was severely injured and almost died under the golden light.
Fortunately, Luo Xiao had obtained a life-saving jade talisman from a ruin and refined it into his Primordial Spirit.
Just as his Primordial Spirit was about to be destroyed, the jade talisman suddenly shone with divine light and forced the seven rays of golden light to retreat.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Luo Xiao's Primordial Spirit flashed and directly escaped to the periphery of the venue.
Once he left the periphery, it meant that he had given up. However, once he reached the periphery, Chen Xiao could no longer use the tomb contest's rules to kill him.
Once he left the periphery, the Luo Clan cultivators could interfere with the battle!
"Humph, you run fast!" Chen Xiao snorted coldly. He felt that he had lost face when he failed to kill Luo Xiao despite his cultivation base.
However, on second thought, Luo Xiao had suffered such heavy injuries. It was impossible for him to cultivate the third form of the battle art within a hundred years, let alone the fourth form!
In this way, Luo Xiao had no hope of saving the Battle King.
According to the Chen Clan's intelligence, the Battle King would definitely die after a hundred years!
Severely injuring Luo Xiao was enough!
"This boy did well!" The Eighth Elder nodded with satisfaction. He did not care about falling out with Luo Shi.
He was not afraid of the Luo Clan without the Battle King! He was not afraid of offending them!
"Chen Xiao wins this battle! The next tomb keeper of the Luo Clan, step forward! "The Elder who presided over the tomb contest, Zhao Mengde, announced calmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Xiao's gaze swept over Luo Xiao and the other six tomb keepers of the Luo Clan.
He said coldly, "Who's next?!"
He had already obtained the approval of the Eighth Elder and Chen Xuan's instructions. In this battle, he must destroy all the tomb keepers without mercy!
Even if he had to break off relations with the Luo Clan, he was not afraid because behind him stood the Eighth Elder, Lei Jinshi!
