Ye Xing's eyes were like swords as he glanced at Zhen Qiu Si: "Come up and die!"
His tone was clean and decisive, as if he was saying something that was bound to happen.
It was like saying at dusk that the sky was going to turn dark. It was like saying at dawn that the sky was going to turn bright.
From Ye Xing's tone, he had already determined Zhen Qiu Si's fate — death. Zhen Qiu Si was naturally infuriated by his tone.
The rest of the inner disciples also started to jeer. They thought that Ye Xing was too arrogant.
"Tsk tsk …"
Among the few core disciples, Ma Ji curled his lips and said in disdain, "This brat does not know the immensity of heaven and earth. Junior Brother Zhen, there is no need to be polite with him. If you kill him in more than three moves, you will be the one losing face."
Even the beautiful He Hongjiao had a cold expression on her face. She said coldly: "There is no need for three moves. Junior Brother Zhen, just use the Universal Fire and kill him in one move!"
The Universal Fire was the ultimate move of the Flame Blade Technique. In the past month, Zhen Qiu Si had been practicing the Flame Blade Technique.
Zhen Qiu Si's Flaming Saber Technique was already close to mastery. In the past month, Hua Tianshu had often given him pointers, and He Hongjiao had also been practicing with him. Although the Flaming Saber Technique had not reached mastery, Zhen Qiu Si's Universal Extermination of Fire had reached mastery under the guidance of Hua Tianshu and He Jiao. Its power was on par with the mastery of the Flaming Saber Technique.
It was extremely rare for a Initial Stage Martial Saint to be able to train an Inferior Stage Spiritual Martial Force to the Great Completion Stage. Once a Lower Stage Spiritual Martial Force reached the Great Completion Stage, then their strength would increase greatly.
Although Zhen Qiu Temple was only ranked tenth among the inner disciples, just the fact that he had reached the Mastery Stage of Extinction of Fire was enough to raise his ranking by several ranks. If a competition was held, Zhen Qiu Temple could definitely charge into the top five of the inner disciples, or even the top three.
Killing Ye Xing was not only Zhen Qiu Si's personal grudge, it was also Hua Tianshu's order. The reason why He Hongjiao was so concerned about this battle was not because of Zhen Qiu Si, but because of her teacher, Hua Tianshu.
Hua Tianshu's order was to kill Ye Xing as soon as possible.
Hua Tianshu was very clear about Zi Shan Hou's hatred towards her. She couldn't let anyone who came from Zi Shan Hou's side achieve anything. Otherwise, they would become a huge problem in the future.
Zhen Qiu Si nodded solemnly and leaped into the Life and Death Ring.
The Life and Death Stage was guarded by a half-step Enlightened Being elder. When Ye Xing and Zhen Qiu Si both got on the stage, an old man in his sixties floated out from a nearby building.
"Elder Wang!"
All the inner disciples shouted in unison. The core disciples also nodded their heads slightly to show their respect.
There weren't many True Masters in the Falling Star Sect, only a dozen or so. Every one of them held a high position and was the head of a department.
For example, the Enforcement Elder, Affair Elder, Sect Affairs Elder, Formation Elder, Martial Pavilion Elder, and so on were all Astral Realm Enlightened Masters.
The Falling Star School was a big family with many things to do. Even though the True Immortal Elders were the top figures in each department, they would be too busy to manage everything. Therefore, the ones who were really in charge were the Half True Immortals.
The half-step Enlightened Masters all had real power in their hands. Even the core disciples had to treat them with respect.
The half-step Enlightened Master guarding the Life and Death Ring was named Wang Shouyi. He belonged to the Affair Hall, which was in charge of all the internal affairs of the sect, including the fights between the disciples.
Wang Shouyi stood on the Life and Death Ring and glanced at Ye Xing and Zhen Qiu Si. One of them would die in the Life and Death Ring. Wang Shouyi obviously didn't care who would live and who would die.
Wang Shouyi said, "In the Life and Death Ring, there is no winner, only life and death. You two, once the battle starts, you can't back out. Have you thought about it?"
Ye Xing and Zhen Qiu Si both nodded with confidence in their eyes.
Wang Shouyi sighed inwardly. He had been guarding the Life and Death Ring for more than ten years. Although the disciples rarely went on the Life and Death Ring, Wang Shouyi had seen a few life and death battles.
In every life and death battle, both sides were full of confidence. They thought that the one who would die in the battle would be the other, and the one who would survive would be themselves.
However, no matter how confident they were, one of them would definitely die. If the other was lucky, he would be able to defeat his opponent and come out unscathed. If he was unlucky and the two of them were of similar strength, if one of them died, the other would definitely not have a good ending.
In the few life and death battles that Wang Shouyi had seen, the victors had won completely. There was not a single person who came out unscathed. There was only one person who was lightly injured, and another who was seriously injured. As for the rest, although they had killed their opponents, they had also suffered fatal injuries. After the battle, they either didn't live for long before dying, or their bodies were crippled and they were barely hanging on.
Therefore, Wang Shouyi didn't like the disciples who went on the Life and Death Ring. This was because there was a 90% chance that both sides would be injured.
Wang Shouyi didn't say anything else. He waved his hand and eight formation flags flew out and stood in eight directions of the Life and Death Ring. A formation light shield covered the entire Life and Death Ring.
Ye Xing was surprised. Elder Wang was a formation master. The formation he had set up was the Eight Gate Formation.
The Eight Gate Formation was a Grade 2 Formation. A Great Perfection Eight Gate Formation was sufficient to trap a Noble Grade Martial Sage. When the Great Perfection Eight Gate Formation enveloped the Life and Death Arena, there was no way out. If one fought inside, one would either die or live.
"Let's start!"
Wang Shouyi said indifferently. His body flashed and he passed through the formation light shield, leaving the Life and Death Ring.
As the Array Master, Wang Shouyi was not restricted by the formation light shield.
After Wang Shouyi left, a ferocious smile appeared on Zhen Qiu Si's face. His eyes were like a poisonous snake as they locked onto Ye Xing.
At the same time, around the Life and Death Ring, all the warriors, be it inner disciples, core disciples, or sect deacons, were energized. Their eyes were focused on the Life and Death Ring. They were paying attention to the life and death battle that could erupt at any time and end at any time.
"Hehehehe …!"
Zhen Qiu Si laughed, "Ye Xing, let's see how you can survive this time. Hehehe … the only thing you can leave behind is your last words!"
Ye Xing raised his hand and a purple spear appeared in his hand. It was the Purple Feather Spear.
With the spear in his hand, Ye Xing's temperament changed drastically. He changed from a gentle prince to a conquering general with the power to sweep away thousands of troops.
Ye Xing was not as emotional as Zhen Qiu Si. He was calm as usual. He pointed his spear at Zhen Qiu Si and said, "The one who will leave behind his last words is you …!"
Zhen Qiu Si was furious and shouted, "You're courting death!"
With this roar, the flame celestial essence in Zhen Qiu Si's body started to boil. A ball of almost transparent flame rose from his body. The temperature around him suddenly rose sharply.
The spiritual weapon in Zhen Qiu Si's hand turned red in an instant. Then, with a flash of sparks, it burned with raging flames.
"Eight Desolation Flames!"
Zhen Qiu Si roared and waved the spiritual weapon in his hand.
In an instant, Zhen Qiu Si's figure disappeared and the flaming saber light flashed.
Flaming saber light shot out one after another. In the blink of an eye, there were eight flaming saber lights. Each flaming saber light was dozens of feet long and contained a terrifying power. They came from eight directions and slashed at Ye Xing at the same time.
Eight flaming saber lights from eight directions. Each of the saber lights was connected to each other and the power circulated endlessly.
No matter how he fought back, unless he destroyed all eight flaming saber lights at the same time, it would be useless.
"Eight Desolation Flames, eight flaming saber lights appearing at the same time. This is the ultimate move of the Flaming Saber Technique. Has Senior Zhen Qiu Si's Flaming Saber Technique reached the Great Completion Realm?"
As soon as Zhen Qiu Si made his move, the inner disciples below the Life and Death Ring immediately exclaimed.
At the same time, a large number of Martial Sages exclaimed. Obviously, they were shocked by Zhen Qiu Si's saber technique.
"Impossible. If Zhen Qiu Si's Flaming Saber Technique reached the Great Completion Realm, he wouldn't be the tenth inner disciple. He would be the first inner disciple. He must have practiced the Eight Desolation Flames diligently for the past month and was guided by an expert to reach the Great Completion Realm instead of the entire Flaming Saber Technique reaching the Great Completion Realm."
A knowledgeable and well-informed person said.
In the blink of an eye, while the Martial Sages were still exclaiming, the eight flaming saber lights had already surrounded Ye Xing and engulfed his figure.
In the eyes of the Martial Sages, it didn't matter whether Zhen Qiu Si had reached the Great Completion Realm or the entire Flaming Saber Technique. This move was enough to take Ye Xing's life.
Moreover, Ye Xing would die without a complete corpse. Such a terrifying move was enough to split Ye Xing's body into pieces.
However, this was not the case.
Suddenly, Ye Xing's voice came out from the flames, "This is your martial arts attainment after a month of hard work?"
His voice was full of disdain.
As Ye Xing spoke, the Purple Feather Spear in his hand moved.
Dark Spirit Spear Technique – Undercurrent Surge!
Ye Xing had only displayed the power of the Dark Spirit Spear Technique to the beginner level. However, he had integrated the power of darkness into it. When the Purple Feather Spear stabbed out, it turned into darkness.
The darkness spread instantly. It first surrounded Ye Xing, then the eight flaming saber lights, and then the entire Life and Death Ring.
Below the Life and Death Ring, cries of surprise rang out. The eyes of the Martial Sages were filled with shock at this moment. The Life and Death Ring suddenly turned dark. It seemed like the eight flaming saber lights had been destroyed in an instant.
Of course, the power of darkness of the spear was not enough to destroy the eight flaming saber lights. However, under the cover of the power of darkness, the eight flaming saber lights could not be seen.
The moment the darkness enveloped the Life and Death Ring, the Purple Feather Spear turned into a surging undercurrent and swept out. The eight flaming saber lights were all destroyed by Ye Xing's move.
The darkness that enveloped the Life and Death Ring only existed for a moment. When the darkness disappeared, everything returned to normal. The eight flaming saber lights were no longer around Ye Xing. There were only a few flaming sparks left.
"Dark … Power … of … Darkness?"
Zhen Qiu Si, who was on the Life and Death Ring, and the Martial Sages below the Life and Death Ring all exclaimed in unison.
