Zhu Rong listened and nodded. He circulated his Qi slightly and spat out a fearful voice. His voice was like a thunderbolt that rang in the ears of all the candidates. "The second round of the Rising Dragon List, the End Verification, begins now."
As soon as the fearful voice fell, Yan Li felt a burst of heat flow into the soles of his feet. He could not help but sit down cross-legged. Wisps of black aura gushed out of his body.
Those wisps of black aura gradually evolved into black crows. When the black crows formed a flock, the power of the Stellar Source within a radius of 50 steps had been occupied by him.
He did not move in a hurry. It seemed that he had made up his mind to defend his own territory. He did not let the black crows rush out and only cawed incessantly within 50 steps.
The stone pillar itself should have the effect of driving the True Name Realization. That was why he could easily control the strength of the True Name.
Of course, the curse was not his True Name. The part he could control was the part he released.
His relationship with the curse was very subtle. On the one hand, he relied on its strength, and on the other hand, he was afraid of its countercharge. There was always a delicate balance between him and the curse. This balance came from the real True Name that guarded the depths of his soul.
In fact, the reason why the curse could not erode him in one go was that most of its power was used to suppress his True Name.
The stone pillar had the effect of driving the True Name Realization. It should have driven the True Name in the depths of the soul. However, because the surface was occupied by the curse, it was also the curse that appeared in the world.
Normally, he could not control the power of the curse. He could only release it or increase his strength. The latter two had a premise and a risk. The premise was that his body could withstand the power of the curse. The risk was that the curse would deepen and he could be completely swallowed at any time.
What he could not understand the most at the Separation Hatred Palace was that the curse suddenly shrank like a tortoise. The situation that he thought he was going to die suddenly changed strangely. This was a digression.
In the Divine Land, before Yan Li entered the Academy, he had the experience of releasing his True Name. At that time, the three curses appeared automatically and the power suppressing the soul weakened. His True Name appeared briefly.
Now, dealing with the curse was as easy as eating and drinking. Under the effect of the stone pillar, the curse manifested in the world, but was suppressed by him. He believed that if he released it now, more than ninety out of a hundred people would escape.
The so-called escape, of course, did not mean jumping down from the pillar, but taking back one's real name. It was like a rabbit being chased by a lion and hiding in its nest. It would definitely not come out no matter what.
If the target also escaped, it would be troublesome.
…
Ji Wuyi was the first to move.
"Hmph!" A clear bird cry rang out between heaven and earth. The area fifty steps around her was suddenly occupied by raging flames, and gradually condensed into a huge firebird within this area.
The Firebird soared into the sky, and the fiery feathers scattered in all directions. When they came into contact with the air, they instantly ignited into even more intense flames. With a loud and clear cry, the flames continued to spread in all directions.
The territory occupied by the firebird immediately exceeded five hundred paces. More than ten people's true names were suppressed by the firebird, and it was still continuously spreading.
"Mortals want to fight with me? You're really overestimating yourself." She laughed contemptuously.
However, at this time, she finally met her match. There was a violent roar of a beast, and a huge Demonic Bear appeared between heaven and earth. Its body was emitting black and purple lightning, and terrifying energy collided around its body, bursting into intense sparks. The sparks formed a strong aura, invading the surroundings, and suddenly spread out to two hundred paces.
At two hundred paces, she met the firebird.
The aura of the two collided fiercely.
Boom!
The scene was no less than a duel between two Perfected Earth Immortals. The terrifying side of the true name manifestation was revealed in front of everyone.
Ji Wuyi looked up and saw the young but determined face of the Long Liquan. She could not help but raise her eyebrows and said arrogantly, "You, get out of my way, or else you'll be in trouble!"
"Your Excellency Ji Wuyi, please forgive me for not being able to comply." The Long Liquan was not moved at all. Instead, he urged the Demonic Bear to rush at the firebird even more violently, occupying more space.
"You musclehead, I'm afraid the Barren God Temple is made up of a bunch of idiots!" Ji Wuyi was so angry that her face turned pale. She made a series of hand seals, urging the firebird to resist fiercely and launch a counterattack.
The collision of the energy of the two was provided by the power of the Astral Source, and there was no need to use True Qi. Therefore, the fight was endless, and there was no need to worry about the consumption of True Qi.
The violent aftermath spread in all directions, and the candidates who were affected by it were miserable. They could only admit that they were unlucky and put away their true names.
Among them, the highest true name was no higher than Grade Four Four Saints, and they were no match for these two monsters. Unless one of them had the true name of Tian Qi, they could only watch as they wreaked havoc, and there was nothing they could do.
The more one's cultivation progressed, the more important the grade of one's true name became.
At this time, if they still insisted on using their true names to fight for something that was almost impossible to fight for, it was very likely that their true names would be permanently damaged, and in serious cases, their lives would be in danger.
Just as the two of them were fighting fiercely, a roar that sounded like a dragon's roar pierced through like a sharp knife.
The space shook violently, and flames scattered in all directions. The Demonic Bear was knocked back.
The two of them were shocked, and then they saw an aurora of ice and fire gradually evolve between them, forming a Qilin of ice and fire. It was so majestic that it was like the return of a king.
"Both of you, get out of the way for Xiao Wang!"
The Qilin opened its mouth and spoke in Ji Hyun-woon's voice.
"Ji Hyun-woon, how dare you attack your sister!" Ji Wuyi naturally couldn't retreat, and he fought back with all his might.
Long Liquan also couldn't retreat, and he controlled the Demonic Bear to pounce on the Qilin.
The fight between the two sides suddenly turned into a three-way fight, and the scene became even more unbearable. Lightning flashed, thunder rumbled, and sparks flew everywhere. The whole sky was in a state of chaos, as if dragons and snakes were dancing.
These three people were fighting for territory here, and none of them gave way to the other, and there were victories and defeats among them. Obviously, the grade of their true names was similar.
But looking at the situation, Ji Hyun-woon's Qilin gradually gained the upper hand, and it could actually suppress the two of them by itself.
The three of them were fighting endlessly here. On the other side, Xia Wanli stared at where Yan Li was with evil intentions. He only saw a flock of crows dancing wildly. Although his true name was a little strange, judging from his aura and unusual phenomenon, the strongest one couldn't be more than Fifth Grade. Compared to his own true name of Fourth Grade Four Sage, he could completely suppress his opponent. Why should he wait for Liu Xiangxiu to perform?
Thinking of this, he smiled coldly, and his true name gradually revealed itself.
