The second round of competition was much more intense than the first round yesterday. Forty-two disciples were able to win in yesterday's competition, so they must have had something special about them. Either they were better at Taoist techniques, or they had powerful magical treasures that made it difficult for them to fight.
But no matter if they won with Taoist techniques or magical treasures, no one had any objections. Victory was victory, defeat was defeat. This was the cruel rule of the strong.
After the lots were drawn, the second round of competition began under the direction of the Xuanfa Taoist. The nine arenas in the square were immediately filled with excitement. All kinds of Dao techniques emerged one after another, and the powerful pressure that emanated from the magical treasures was frightening.
On the nine arenas, forty-two of the most outstanding youths from the nine branches showed off their skills and fought with all their might. Even if they did not go too far, it was inevitable that one side would be injured.
But if it was not life-threatening, or if the opponent was deliberately injured, the sect would not pursue the matter. The heads of the seven branches and the sect leader sat in front of the Supreme Mystery Hall. No one dared to act presumptuously in front of them.
Therefore, the Nine Peaks Trials were carried out in an orderly manner without any disputes.
It seemed that not many people knew that Gu Fei had been attacked last night, nor did it spread within the sect. Perhaps the sect leader and the heads of the seven branches had suppressed the matter.
The Nine Peaks Trials continued as usual, as if nothing had happened. This surprised Gu Fei. The reaction of the sect leader and the heads of the seven branches seemed to be a bit unusual.
The Taixuan Sect was one of the three main sects, a famous sect in the world of cultivators. To have a disciple attacked in the sect was no small matter, but the sect did not seem to have done anything about it.
"Whatever happens, it is not something I can control. Let's win the Nine Peaks Trials first!" At this moment, the outcome of the battle between the two youths on the first ring had been decided, and it was Gu Fei's turn to enter the ring.
"Lei Ao, an outstanding disciple of the Biyun Peak, seems to be Dongfang Chen's senior brother. Interesting!" Gu Feiyue stepped onto the stage and was greeted by a tall youth with long arms and legs. He looked very mighty.
The two walked to a distance of six feet from each other and stood still. Lei Ao had the head of a leopard, the eyes of a tiger, the waist of a bear, and the appearance of a mighty man. It could be said that he was naturally gifted.
Lei Ao stood in front of Gu Fei and a ferocious beast-like aura immediately swept towards Gu Fei. Gu Fei's pupils involuntarily shrank.
"This Lei Ao is not simple!" Gu Fei felt that Biyun Peak's Lei Ao's cultivation was not inferior to Dongfang Chen's. He was a strong opponent.
"Humph! Gu Fei, you went too far yesterday. Today, I will return the humiliation that Dongfang Chen suffered to you! "Lei Ao pointed at Gu Fei with an ominous glint in his eyes and said ruthlessly.
"Senior Brother Lei, why are you still talking so much with this arrogant guy? Just beat him up and help us vent our anger!"
The Biyun Peak disciples below the stage all clamored. Not a single one of them did not glare at Gu Fei angrily. It seemed like they were going to attack Gu Fei as a group.
Yesterday, on the arena, Gu Fei's humiliation of Dongfang Chen had greatly angered all the disciples of the Biyun Peak and made them lose face. It would be strange if these disciples were not angry.
As for Dongfang Chen, below the arena, he was gnashing his teeth at Gu Fei. He could not wait to jump onto the arena and chop Gu Fei into pieces to vent his anger. Yesterday, Gu Fei made him lose face in front of the disciples of the nine factions. It could be said that he had formed an irreconcilable grudge with Gu Fei.
Although Dongfang Chen had suffered serious internal injuries yesterday, after a night of treatment by the experts of the sect and the consumption of elixirs, his injuries seemed to have completely healed.
The methods of cultivators were extremely mysterious. For those with great power, even moving mountains and draining seas was a piece of cake. It was very easy to heal a mere internal injury.
Last night, Gu Fei was attacked by a cultivator of the Transcending Mortality Stage. His body was hit by the Taoist True Fire, which burned his meridians and meridians. His injuries were unimaginably serious, but he was still healed by Taoist Xuantian's Nine Revolution Golden Pill.
"What a joke. Even Dongfang Chen is not my opponent. You should just admit defeat." Gu Fei said disdainfully. Lei Ao's cultivation seemed to be on par with Dongfang Chen's, but he still wanted to help Dongfang Chen vent his anger. Wasn't he looking for trouble?
"Damn it. Today, I will let you experience my power!" Lei Ao was instantly enraged when he heard Su Mo's words. Veins appeared on his forehead.
"Then prepare to be tortured!" Gu Fei's expression turned cold and a ray of light shot out from his eyes. Then, he left an afterimage on his original spot and appeared in front of Lei Ao in an instant.
Lei Ao did not expect Gu Fei's speed to be so fast and he was instantly shocked. However, he was after all, a rare young expert among the young disciples of Biyun Peak. When Gu Fei moved, he let out a low roar and a violent wave of spiritual power surged out of his body. There was a series of crackling sounds around his body and sparks flew everywhere. His body was actually covered with a layer of dazzling lightning that was as thick as a child's arm, protecting him inside.
When Gu Fei approached Lei Ao with his extreme speed, he had already attacked. A fist had already landed on Lei Ao's abdomen and the fist had even touched Lei Ao's clothes.
However, Lei Ao's spiritual power had already erupted from his body like a volcano. It was a layer of red lightning net that carried a shocking fire elemental power.
"Five Thunders Execution?" Gu Fei's fist instantly collided with the protective lightning that surged out of Lei Ao's body and gave out a low thunder-like sound. Then, Gu Fei quickly retreated. His entire arm was already covered with red lightning.
It was that punch that caused Lei Ao's protective lightning to attack Gu Fei's arm. It caused his entire right arm to feel numb.
"What a powerful lightning power. It is many times more powerful than the Palm Thunder!" When the red lightning attacked his arm, Gu Fei's right sleeve was immediately burnt into ashes.
"Roar!" With an angry roar, Gu Fei shook his right arm and used a strong force to disperse the red lightning on his arm. Then, he stopped his retreating body and stared coldly at Lei Ao, who was still retreating.
Gu Fei's fist was extremely powerful. Although the fist did not really hit Lei Ao's body, the strong force of the fist still caused Lei Ao to suffer a great impact. His body was unsteady as he retreated continuously.
Every time he took a step back, Lei Ao's heavy and ferocious steps caused the arena beneath his feet to tremble. He retreated continuously for more than ten steps before he could dissolve the force of Gu Fei's fist.
"Warriors are indeed scary. Every move they make is filled with great force. In terms of body strength, I am not as good as Gu Fei!" Lei Ao was secretly shocked. With a lightning-fast exchange of blows, he had already determined how strong Gu Fei was.
"Five Thunders Technique, Eastern Wood Thunder Appear!" Lei Ao pinched a thunder seal with both of his hands. The red lightning on his body that was crackling continuously immediately turned into a dark green color. Then, it rushed out from Lei Ao's body and formed more than ten green lightning arcs that struck towards Gu Fei.
The strong force of the thunder contained a wave of Plant Essence Qi. The Wood Elemental Power in the air also gathered from all directions and merged with the lightning, causing the tens of green lightning arcs to explode with even more blinding light.
Among all the Taoist skills, the most powerful one was the Thunder Skill. Thunder was the command of Heaven and it represented Heaven to punish. Once the thunder was out, everything in the world would tremble.
And the Thunder Skill that Lei Ao cultivated was the authentic Five Thunders Technique. Even though the thunder had not formed a Core of Dao and had broken through to the Realm of Transcending Mortality, the power of the thunder that he displayed was not to be underestimated.
"Hmm!" Feeling the oppressive aura that was filled with destruction from Lei Ao, Gu Fei could not help but frown. But at this moment, the tens of green lightning arcs had already struck in front of him and he did not dare to be careless.
His right hand grabbed the air in front of him and a purple light instantly rushed out from his palm. With a "clang" sound, a purple lightning that looked like a sword but was not a sword immediately condensed and was caught in his hand.
Gu Fei waved the three feet purple lightning that looked like a sword but was not a sword. Instantly, there was a "chi chi" sound. Rays of purple Sword Qi broke through the air and slashed towards the tens of green lightning arcs at lightning speed.
There was a series of loud noises as the Sword Qi and lightning collided with each other. But Gu Fei's body followed the sword and his aura was imposing. When he destroyed the lightning arcs, he took big steps towards Lei Ao.
Gu Fei used the Desolate Steps. It looked slow but it was actually very fast. Lei Ao saw Gu Fei turning into a flowing shadow and pouncing towards him and he was instantly shocked. Although he was tall and strong and his Taoist techniques were powerful, his martial arts were very ordinary. He did not dare to let a martial artist like Gu Fei get close to him.
"Lightning Doppelganger!" Lei Ao shouted and there was a loud sound of thunder in the arena. At the same time, his body suddenly became blurry.
Gu Fei's heavy punch directly penetrated through Lei Ao's chest. Just when everyone was shocked, Lei Ao's figure had already appeared behind Gu Fei.
"Illusion?" Gu Fei's face was expressionless as he dispersed Lei Ao's afterimage doppelganger with one punch. He was not surprised at all. Lei Ao's doppelganger technique was much inferior to the doppelganger technique that the person from last night had used.
"Five Thunders Execution, South Fire Thunder appear, Central Earth Thunder rise!" Lei Ao's hands instantly formed two Taoist seals. On the arena, there was instantly an explosion of two violent forces.
Then, "Kaboom!" A large ball of fire exploded in the air above Gu Fei's head. It shot out streaks of lightning that were like fire snakes and formed a fire net that covered Gu Fei's head.
At the same time, a thick earth energy suddenly rose under Gu Fei's feet. The earth energy was not a patch of greyness. Instead, under Lei Ao's Taoist technique, it had condensed into streaks of greyish lightning, which coiled around Gu Fei's body with crackling sounds.
Five Thunders Execution used the power of the five elements to condense the power of lightning and used it to attack the enemy. The violent power of lightning tore the air apart and attacked from above and below. It completely sealed all of Gu Fei's escape routes.
