"Senior-martial aunt Yu Luo!" One of them was coincidentally a disciple of Ancient Hill Sect, and recognized her. "What's wrong with you?"
Yu Luo did not reply. She simply swept a glance at the two of them, and coldly said. "Make your move!"
The two of them were startled, yet, they did not know what to do. Could it be that the situation of the finals this time had changed? Why didn't they know?
Zi Mo seemed to have seen Yu Luo the moment she flew down the stage, and stood up with an excited expression. "Yu Luo!" His precious daughter, what was she trying to do?
Just as he was about to berate her, he suddenly felt a pressure pressing him back to his seat. Zi Mo turned to look behind him. "Little martial aunt!" Why did she stop him?
Zhu Yao did not even give him any explanation, and simply looked at the stage seriously, as though the person who was pressuring him was not her.
What was little martial aunt trying to do? Although his daughter was a Foundation-stage practitioner as well, with her trashy Water Spirit Vein, how could she defeat the two disciples on the stage? Furthermore, the opponents were Foundation Paragons.
Zi Mo was instantly anxious, yet, he could not move at all.
"Senior-martial aunt Yu Luo must have entered by mistake." As a disciple of Ancient Hill Sect, he knew about this martial aunt with a trashy Spirit Vein, and did not think that she had the strength to participate in the tournament. "It's best if you leave first."
Yu Luo's expression turned cold. She could not be bothered to waste words with the two of them, and immediately formed hand seals. A World of Ice and Snow was released.
The ground instantly froze at an extremely fast speed. Pillars of ice shot out from the ground like steel nails, split into two, and shot straight towards the other two.
The two of them were startled. The speed at which the ice formed was so fast that they did not even have the time to form a defensive barrier, and had no choice but to fly up with their flying swords.
"Senior-martial aunt Yu Luo!" Especially that Ancient Hill Sect disciple. His face was filled with disbelief. Was this the Water Spirit Vein? You must be joking. This casting speed was simply comparable to a mutated Ice Spirit Vein, alright?
Just as he was feeling doubtful, Yu Luo suddenly leaped up, and slashed towards him with her sword. He no longer had the time to be shocked. Keeping away his scornful thoughts from before, he summoned his spiritual sword and faced her seriously.
The other disciple saw that she was attacking someone else, and had a moment to catch his breath. He flew down, intending to counterattack. However, the moment he landed on the ground, he felt something was amiss. The person casting the art was no longer there. Logically, the spell should have stopped, but the ice on the ground was still spreading. The moment he landed on the ground, it froze one of his legs.
That person was startled and immediately swung his sword to cut off the ice. With one of his feet stuck in ice, he flew up again. He took a closer look …
That was the Art of Freezing. It actually formed a huge spell formation that covered the entire place. Furthermore, it was continuously activated. As soon as someone touched the ground, they would be frozen into ice in no time.
In less than ten breaths of time, she had actually controlled the entire ground.
Startled, he instantly turned serious. He had thought that this female cultivator was a little arrogant. At this moment, it seemed that she dared to challenge the two of them alone. He must have the strength to do so.
And the other Ancient Hill Sect disciple, was also dumbfounded by Yu Luo's Sword Arts that could penetrate through any openings. Sword after sword. It was as if he was fighting with his life on the line, slashing and stabbing randomly. However, he was unable to retaliate at all. Gradually, he found it difficult to even parry the attacks.
Such a brutal sword technique, it was definitely not the rumored trash Master Yu Luo!
Taking a deep breath, he circulated the spiritual energy in his body. With all his might, he forced Yu Luo away. The suppression of a Foundation Paragon against a mid-level Foundation practitioner, caused Yu Luo to be forced to retreat by several meters. The disciple was overjoyed. Taking the opportunity when she retreated, he materialized thousands of spiritual swords. And attacked Yu Luo.
Yu Luo had lost the initiative, and was no longer able to get close, and could only be forced to retreat. And, she dodged from the air all the way to the ground.
A good chance. The eyes of the other disciple shone. He immediately circulated his spiritual energy, and cast a Fire Mystic Art – Prairie Blaze. A large amount of flames ignited on the surface of the ice, instantly turning into a sea of fire. And the ice surface earlier, was burned by the flames as well, instantly turning into water vapor, revealing the original ground.
And the disciple who was controlling the spiritual swords, hurriedly adjusted the direction of the spiritual swords, and attacked towards Yu Luo's direction.
Yu Luo had no choice but to raise a defensive barrier, and did her best to resist the surrounding sea of fire, and the spiritual swords that were descending from above. The situation instantly reversed, Yu Luo completely did not have any strength to retaliate, and the destruction of that defensive barrier was only a matter of time.
The eyes of the two disciples revealed joyous expressions, yet, they silently expressed their pity towards this woman who dared to come out and fight against two alone. Her ability was indeed not bad, but unfortunately, she was still a little too arrogant. How could it be that easy to challenge someone of a higher level, and furthermore, it was a one versus two.
The two of them landed on the ground, and looked towards Yu Luo's direction. The Mystic Arts in their hands, however, did not stop. The two of them increased the output of their spiritual energy, hoping to break through her defensive barrier as soon as possible. There was no longer any suspense in the outcome, they were definitely going to win.
Yu Luo seemed to be unable to hold on any longer, as she knelt on the ground on one knee. Looking at the two complacent people, she suddenly revealed a smile.
Before the two of them had even noticed, she had already slammed her palm onto the ground, and said. "Freeze, activate!"
In an instant, a large amount of ice appeared where the two of them were standing, and covered their bodies, instantly turning the two of them into two gigantic ice sculptures. And, they still maintained the posture of forming the hand seals just now.
Victory!
The entire place was silent.
It was supposed to be a sure win. How did the tables turn so quickly?
Not to mention the two participants, even the Nascent Soul cultivators present didn't expect this outcome. Most of these people were present when Yu Luo's Spirit Root was tested back then, so of course they knew that the little girl on the field was the Water Spirit Root's Human Cauldron back then.
Therefore, they were more unwilling to believe their own eyes than anyone else. Didn't they say that trash spirit roots could only be used as cultivation furnaces? This must have been a mistake in the past, right? This girl actually has an Ice Spirit Root, right? It was one thing to challenge someone of a higher level, but one against two?
"Well done!" Zi Mo was undoubtedly the happiest one, and the only thing missing was to rush up and give his precious daughter a kiss. Let's see who dares to look down on my daughter in the future. Let's see which rascal dares to propose marriage without fear of death.
Zi Mo barely managed to stabilize his excited emotions, and he still remembered to turn around to thank Zhu Yao. Naturally, he knew that the reason why his daughter could have such accomplishments, was definitely because of his senior-martial aunt's teachings. In the past, he thought that his Martial Aunt was mischievous and liked to go against him. But now, it seemed that she had already thought of this. "Thank you, Martial Uncle, for teaching my daughter."
Touching. As expected, they were a family that loved each other.
Zhu Yao gave him a disdainful look. Little bitch, when I stopped you earlier, you must have been scolding me in your heart. Now that you know what I mean, hmph, I'm going to ignore you.
Zhu Yao turned around, and continued her cold and aloof demeanor.
Zi Mo was snubbed, yet, he did not mind it, and happily sat back down.
However, his words, reminded the crowd present, and only then did they recall that Water Spirit Vein holder was Sovereign Zhu Yao's disciple, and she came from Jade Forest Mountain. It was no wonder she was so monstrous. As expected, Jade Forest Mountain was a place that specialized in producing monstrous people, and could not be deduced with common sense.
However, earlier, just how did that Yu Yao instantly form a formation, and froze those two people?
Only Zhu Yao knew the answer to this.
The hell, little radish basically did not set up a second formation, alright!? It was that stupid disciple. She thought that by using fire to melt the ice, she would be able to break the formation. However, when water encounters fire, it can only turn into water vapor. Once the temperature drops, of course, it can turn back into ice. That formation, had never disappeared in the first place, alright?
What little radish did, was merely to once again freeze them into ice.
As expected, knowledge can change one's fate. The reason why those two people lost, was because they lacked a physics teacher.
Just when the crowd was still confused, Feng Yi, who had been sitting on the Luan the entire time, looked towards the remnants of the formation on the ground. She looked at Zhu Yao in front of her as though she was in deep thoughts, and in an instant, she once again returned to her usual appearance.
Heh, as expected, it's still because she missed him too much, right!?
"Jade Forest Mountain, Yu Yao wins!" The judge at the side of the arena loudly announced.
Yu Yao raised her head and glanced at her master who was on the stage, and revealed the most brilliant smile in these twenty years. Master, your disciple did it.
In the next instant, however, she fell straight onto the ground, and the hint of a smile still remained at the corner of her lips.
Zhu Yao simply felt her heart tremble, and for a moment, she had a bad premonition.
The judge thought that she had merely fainted after exhausting her spiritual energy, so he did not care about her, and instead prioritized saving the two disciples who were still frozen in ice.
With a flash of white light, Sovereign Zhu Yao who was still on the stage earlier, suddenly appeared in the arena, and held onto Yu Yao. Just as the judge was about to sigh, the deep relationship between master and disciple, he saw that Sovereign loudly recite.
"The hell!"
Looking at the 'BUG' word that was becoming deeper and deeper on Yu Yao's face, Zhu Yao even had the heart to curse out. The hell, why did it have to be now? Wasn't it supposed to be tomorrow night?
Why did it have to begin now?
No, she definitely could not allow that female antagonist to successfully take over her body. She was raising a little radish with red shoots, she could not turn into a black radish.
Zhu Yao carried Yu Yao who had already fainted, and flew up. She then casually picked up Zi Mo who was still showing off how amazing his daughter was on the stage, and returned to Jade Forest Mountain with her fastest speed.
"Little … Little martial aunt?" Zi Mo was confused. Why did she suddenly take him away? Seeing her anxiously placing his daughter on the bed, Zi Mo heaved a sigh of relief, and said. "Senior-martial aunt, don't worry. My daughter is just tired, and wants to rest for a while …"
"She's being taken over by someone." Zhu Yao coldly said.
"What?" Zi Mo's face paled, and for a moment, even his voice was trembling a little. "How's that possible? I basically did not sense the presence of any other Nascent Soul practitioners."
In order to take over a body, one must first cultivate to the Nascent Soul level, otherwise, it was basically impossible for the soul to leave the body on its own.
Zhu Yao coldly glared at him. What kind of father are you?
Zi Mo was a little flustered as well. He seriously looked at his daughter's appearance, and indeed, it was a little abnormal. Her presence seemed to be growing weaker, could it be that there really was a Nascent Soul devouring her soul?
"What … What should we do?"
If I knew, do I still need to capture you?
Zhu Yao glared at him. Outsiders would not be able to help with matters like this. The so-called 'taking over a body', in the end, was just a contest between two souls. Something like a soul was illusory, outsiders were basically unable to do anything about it, and they could only see who had more will to continue living. (To be continued)
