In this battle, Cang Qiong Tian Yun and Xing Huo Xun Yi had both sunk into a bitter battle. In the previous eight battles, the two of them had never been so strenuous.
Cang Qiong Tian Yun's body was tyrannical, and it was rare amongst those at the same level. His close combat attacks were similarly fierce and ruthless. After being guided by General Hatchet Palace Master and the other teachers of the convention, his body and close combat attacks were comparable to those at the fifth level Star Pagoda. But he had an obvious weakness too … and that was that his movement technique was too weak. In his previous battles, many talented cultivators could surpass him in terms of movement technique speed. But because his weakness was too obvious, his overall strength could only be considered at the peak of the fourth level Star Pagoda standard.
When dealing with other opponents, Cang Qiong Tian Yun was also very simple, directly attacking from a distance.
With a single punch, even if it was a long-range attack, it was enough to defeat his opponent.
Unfortunately, it was useless against Xing Huo Xun Yi.
Xing Huo Xun Yi's ancient cultivator illusory realm was extremely extraordinary. Even though Cang Qiong Tian Yun was able to resist against it, he was always distracted and his strength was affected. The most important thing was the 'Bubble Shadow Destruction'. Its destructive power was extremely strong, and three consecutive bubbles stacked together was enough to damage Cang Qiong Tian Yun's lifeforce. One by one, the bubbles enveloped Cang Qiong Tian Yun. Cang Qiong Tian Yun furiously tried to break them apart, but each time he did, the bubbles would also damage him.
Most importantly, Bubble Shadow also had a binding effect.
His long-range attacks couldn't break the 'bubble', and he couldn't get close to Xing Huo Xun Yi either. As a result, he could only 'waste' his time.
"Break, break!" Cang Qiong Tian Yun roared furiously as he frantically attacked the bubbles that were trying to restrain him. The world bubbles were unending, causing Cang Qiong Tian Yun to feel very uncomfortable. Occasionally, he would rush out and attack Xing Huo Xun Yi with his arms expanding, and a new bubble would descend.
Xing Huo Xun Yi was also very careful.
Under the berserk state, Cang Qiong Tian Yun's attacks were too ferocious. With just one move, Cang Qiong Tian would have to activate his protective treasure and lose.
"His body is too strong." Xing Huo Xun Yi also felt that it was very strenuous. 'Bubble Annihilation' was his strongest move, and he could only unleash three world bubbles at the same time with his full strength. And with this, he could barely injure his opponent! The strength of his body was simply too heaven-defying.
In this battle, Xing Huo Xun Yi had been very careful and did not let Cang Qiong Tian Yun get close to him.
On the other hand, Cang Qiong Tian Yun was like a peerless beast. He did not dare to become too big, as the bigger his body was, the weaker his defence would be. Maintaining a normal size was the best defence. From time to time, his arms would expand as he prepared to launch a sneak attack.
A full ten minutes passed.
As Cang Qiong Tian Yun's lifeforce continued to deplete, he finally admitted defeat unwillingly.
"I lost." Cang Qiong Tian Yun thought to himself, "In the future, I must think of a way to increase the speed of my movement technique."
In the past, he had spent all his energy on the 12 Calamities Universe Body that he had obtained through a fortuitous encounter. This was the ultimate skill of the strongest warrior system. The goal of this ultimate skill was to pursue an indestructible body with an extremely strong defense. The more extreme the pursuit of an extremely strong body's defense, the more powerful the attack would be. However, the speed of the movement technique would become very weak. This was the weakness of this technique.
"General Hatchet Palace Lord, General Tianguang, and Elder Dongbo have all said that cultivating in other systems can make up for this weakness." Cang Qiong Tian Yun thought. 10,000 years was too short, and he required a longer period to cultivate. He believed that as long as he could make up for this weakness, he would be able to reach the fifth level of Star Pagoda strength.
"Cang Qiong Tian Yun, who would have thought that your body is so formidable. Admirable." Xing Huo Xun Yi was indeed admirable. His father, 'Xing Huo Emperor', other than being famous for his flames, had a strong body even amongst those at the ninth level Star Pagoda strength. Hence, Xing Huo Xun Yi cultivated in the bloodline cultivation system, and his body was considered relatively strong.
But compared to Cang Qiong Tian Yun, he was far weaker.
He knew that Cang Qiong Tian Yun definitely had an amazing absolute art, but so what? He, Xing Huo Xun Yi, could easily obtain many absolute arts. The core members of the holy grounds could obtain cosmos ranked absolute arts, but so what? Ultimately, the cultivators had to cultivate it themselves.
"I admire you more. You have improved so much in just a short 10,000 years. I accept my loss wholeheartedly." Cang Qiong Tian Yun said.
…
Even though Xing Huo Xun Yi and Cang Qiong Tian Yun, the two most dazzling genius cultivators of this Star Convention, were conversing and walking down the battle platform.
But on the high platform, the Primal Chaos giants could not help but look at that white-robed young man seated at the edge of the seats of the five teachers of the convention. They knew that in this Star Convention, the name of Dongbo Xue Ying would definitely spread amongst the many Primal Chaos giants. Because his performance was truly dazzling.
There were even many mysteries.
Xing Huo Xun Yi, with that background, Dongbo Xue Ying was actually able to help him improve so much in just a short 10,000 years? From being ranked 3,600th in the Star Pagoda preliminaries to becoming the champion in the final decisive battle! Unfathomable!
"Dongbo Xue Ying." A cold voice came from the side.
Dongbo Xue Ying looked over.
Five Luster Serpent Ancestor who was standing not far away still had a cold expression. Only his gaze towards Dongbo Xue Ying had changed slightly: "Congratulations, the Xing Huo Xun Yi you chose has become the champion this time."
"It's because his comprehension ability is high." Dongbo Xue Ying immediately chuckled. He understood that with the personality of Five Luster Serpent Ancestor, it was rare for him to take the initiative to 'congratulate' someone.
Five Luster Serpent Ancestor finished speaking before turning his head downwards.
The 200 genius cultivators were all recovering their strength. Some who were heavily injured were even being treated by the experts arranged by the Star Pagoda Convention.
Very soon.
They were all heading towards the Star Pagoda, taking the initiative to challenge the Star Pagoda.
Their performance in the 'decisive battle', their performance in challenging the Star Pagoda twice, and also their performance in seeking guidance from the teachers of the convention in the next 10,000 years. According to many factors, the five teachers of the convention would choose another five cultivators. Together with the top five in the final battle, there would be a total of 10 cultivators. They could choose any holy ground to join and become a core member, receiving full nurturing.
With just 200 cultivators, it was very fast for them to challenge the Star Pagoda.
There were a total of three who reached the fourth level Star Pagoda this time: Xing Huo Xun Yi, Cang Qiong Tian Yun, and Kang Yong.
There were 169 at the third level Star Pagoda, and the remaining 28 were at the second level Star Pagoda.
"Dongbo, make your preparations. 10,000 years later, all of you will have to preach the Dao publicly." Everyone stood up and left. Xing Huo Emperor, Dongbo Xue Ying, and Inquisitive Sky Hall Master flew side by side.
"Mn."
Dongbo Xue Ying felt relatively relaxed.
In the next 10,000 years, they could just choose one more person. Even though this quota was important, the difficulty wasn't too big. By then, they would conduct a public Dao lecture with the other four teachers of the convention. It was also a huge opportunity for the weaker cultivators. After the Dao lecture, the convention would officially end.
'At least this convention did not disgrace my Great Void Heaven Temple.' Dongbo Xue Ying thought. He had a grin on his face.
*****
The Star Convention had reached its later stages. Great Void Heaven Temple's Dongbo Xue Ying was also being mentioned by many Primal Chaos giants. And at this moment, an event that could shake the entire five great sacred worlds of the primal chaos void happened in the Myriad Ancient Sacred World.
Myriad Ancient Sacred World, there was a courtyard deep in the mountains.
"Weng ~"
A low ripple was emitted from within the courtyard. It seemed unremarkable.
But the courtyard silently turned into ruins. Some of the surrounding mountains, rocks, and plants similarly withered. The disturbance was small, but it represented that the power was being restrained.
The silver-haired golden-horned man, 'Gu Qi', stood within the courtyard that had turned into ruins. His body seemed to have split into more than a hundred pieces. These pieces had already fused together to form a human figure. It's just that there was a black light emitting from the cracks on his body. This black light was constantly spreading in all directions. Furthermore, there was a clear hole in his chest.
Gu Qi held onto the hole in his chest. He was staring straight ahead.
A figure was standing in front of him.
As he stood there, the space around him became quiet and docile. The surrounding world had completely submitted to him. Even though the Myriad Ancient Sacred World was jointly created by Wu Zu and Jie Zu, the Myriad Ancient Sacred World was a world that had been created by both Wu Zu and Jie Zu. But as long as he was here, the surrounding world would submit to him.
His skin was white, and the contours of his face were gentle. Even though he wasn't absolutely beautiful, any handsome male or beautiful female would pale in comparison to him. His appearance seemed to contain part of the supreme law of the primal chaos void. Looking at his appearance was akin to looking at the supreme law. Even Cosmos Gods could not help but feel like children looking at their parents.
There was a gentle smile on his face, and his eyes were also very sincere. A husband who had become dao companions for life and death could only look at his wife with such sincerity.
"Saint Lord!" Gu Die opened his mouth with difficulty. His voice was hoarse, and there was a faint black light in his throat. "In order to kill me, you really put in a lot of effort."
"I'm only letting you return to the primal chaos." Saint Lord was gentle and sincere, "Those who obstruct me will return to the primal chaos, and those who obey me will submit to me. In the future, when I control the entire primal chaos void, I'll summon you out once again. You will also be incomparably loyal to me. By then, the entire primal chaos void will be like a family, and everything will be peaceful. How good is that?"
Saint Lord walked over. He extended his hand. His palm was white and gentle. He caressed Gu Die's face: "I don't have any killing intent towards you, nor do I have any hatred towards you. It's just that you have obstructed me, and I can only temporarily let you return to the primal chaos. Go, just like sleeping. When I summon you, you will wake up."
Gu Die wanted to retreat, but the black light had already enveloped his entire body. His body was starting to solidify, and he could not move at all. Even his mouth could not move.
"Summon me? Just you and you want to control the entire primal chaos void? " Gu Die controlled the void to emit a voice. His skin had already started turning into a black jade stone. His eyes were staring at Saint Lord in front of him.
"Nobody can obstruct me. You will see that day. By then, you will also be my child." Saint Lord turned around and looked to the distance.
A figure had already appeared in the distance.
Wu Zu stood there with black chains surrounding his body. Clearly, he was extremely vigilant as he stared at Saint Lord in the distance.
"Nobody can obstruct me from doing what I want to do. You can't obstruct me either." Saint Lord looked at Wu Zu, "Although I can't bear to obstruct you, I can only temporarily let you return to the primal chaos."
Saint Lord smiled.
He disappeared from the Myriad Ancient Sacred World just like that, as though he had never appeared.
Wu Zu's expression was very ugly. He turned his head and looked at Gu Die who had turned into a black jade stone statue. He sighed: "Gu Die, I wasn't able to protect you."
Gu Die who had turned into a jade stone statue, his soul was also solidifying. His thoughts were rapidly slowing down.
"Fortunately, I have a disciple."
"It's just that my disciple, I haven't had the time to see you."
Gu Die's thoughts were getting slower and slower.
In the end, it completely stopped.
The black jade stone statue no longer had any fluctuations. It was as though it was absolutely dead. It stood there silently and looked into the distance.
…
Gu Die was ultimately killed by Saint Lord.
Wu Zu first transmitted the news to Gu Die's teacher, 'Void Primogenitor'. Void Primogenitor was completely stunned when he heard the news. He sat by himself for a very long time. He only felt heartache and self-blame. His heartache was because he could not forget the time he spent teaching Gu Die. That carefree disciple was also his most outstanding disciple. Self-blame was because he was too weak and could not protect his disciple. Closely following that, the news naturally spread across many final realm existences. All final realm existences knew about it.
Even though Wu Zu obstructed him, Sacred Master still killed another Cosmos God. This time, the Cosmos God who fell was called 'Gu Die'.
