At the Cosmos Platform in Cosmos Garden, the 40 invited geniuses were all immersed in the wonderful taste of the wine and could not extricate themselves.
After an unknown amount of time, there was still someone who finished drinking the wine in the wine bottle, and his face was filled with a satisfied expression. Soon after, he seemed to have thought of something, and his expression suddenly changed and was filled with loneliness.
"How can I drink other wines in the future after drinking such a good wine today …"
As soon as he said that, the others also sighed with sorrow.
Chen Zong also felt the same.
It was true. With such a fine wine in his mouth, if he didn't have such a fine wine to drink in the future, drinking other wines would be like drinking water.
At this time, there seemed to be a gust of wind accompanied by a strong wine fragrance. A figure appeared at the corner of the Cosmos Platform.
The first thing that came into view was a huge gourd that looked like it was made of ancient green jade. There seemed to be wisps of smoke lingering on the gourd, like the smell of wine, going in and out of the ancient green jade gourd.
On the huge ancient green jade gourd sat an old man in a plain robe. The old man's hair was scattered and he looked a little slovenly, but he did not give off a dirty feeling.
The old man was holding a wine jug in his arms, and his eyes were hazy with drunkenness.
"It's Senior Wine Master."
"Junior Ju Rong greets Senior Wine Master."
"Junior Guo Yunlian greets Senior Wine Master."
Immediately, they stood up and bowed.
"Okay, let's begin," Wine Master said rudely and interrupted everyone's bow.
He had always been like this.
"I'm honored to be invited by Senior Wine Master. Now, in front of Senior Wine Master, I, Ju Rong, will make a fool of myself first." A young man leaped up and landed on the Universal Platform. He stood tall with a long sword hanging from his waist. His aura was imposing, and his eyes flickered with incomparably sharp light. He swept his gaze across and said, "Who wants to compete with me?"
The so-called Genius Wine Tasting Conference was not that simple. Everyone was a cultivator and they were judged by their strength. Naturally, they had to compete. Otherwise, they would not be reciting poems, which was something only scholars would do.
Ju Rong stood on the Cosmos Platform and waited for his opponent.
"In that case, I, Lin Xiong, will be your opponent." With a long howl, the wild young man leaped into the air with a powerful aura. Then, he fell like a meteor.
With a boom, the Universal Platform shook slightly, and a ripple spread out from the feet of the wild youth, Lin Xiong.
The two of them were rising geniuses, and they weren't on the Dark Roll. Their actions were like throwing a brick to attract jade.
"Brother Lin, take my sword!" Ju Rong did not speak any nonsense. When his voice sounded, the sharp sword at his waist was unsheathed. A sharp sword light shot out. It was cold and dense. It turned into a ray of flowing light and stabbed out.
That sword was as cold as autumn water and as swift as lightning, piercing through the air towards Lin Xiong.
"Good timing." Lin Xiong laughed heartily, his long hair fluttering in the wind. With a wave of his hand, an astonishing amount of energy condensed within it. It was like rolling thunder, and there was also a mountain-like amount of energy as it blasted out with a palm strike.
Both of them were Middle-level Half-Saints. They weren't weak and had solid foundations. They weren't very old either. They could be considered as genius-level cultivators. Each of their moves was powerful.
Wine Master was drinking wine as if he didn't care at all. But in fact, he had seen everything clearly.
"The two of them are strong. They are stronger than ordinary mid-level Half-saints. However, they are not as strong as ordinary high-level Half-saints," Chen Zong said to himself.
The two of them fighting on the Universal Platform could only be regarded as General Level or Marquis Level in terms of genius level. They were not at the level of real Marquis Level geniuses.
Even if their cultivation had reached high-level Half-saints, they were much stronger than ordinary high-level Half-saints. However, they couldn't be listed on the Dark Roll. There was still a gap.
In any case, whether it was Lin Xiong's palm skill or Ju Rong's sword skill, they were both very brilliant.
The battle was fierce. The sword light was rampant, and the palm print was like a mountain.
Lin Xiong's palm skill was wild and bold. His imposing manner was powerful and astonishing. Facing Ju Rong's sword skill, he fought steadily and steadily without being aggressive. He wore down Ju Rong's power little by little.
Ju Rong's sword skill was swift and fierce like lightning. The speed of the sword was astonishing and the power was tyrannical. However, Lin Xiong's palms kept resisting and couldn't hurt Ju Rong at all.
Unknowingly, Ju Rong's power was constantly being consumed. However, it was still difficult to break Lin Xiong's defense.
After a quarter of an hour, Ju Rong's sword paused slightly. Lin Xiong's eyes emitted a terrifying light. A tyrannical aura suddenly rolled out. It was as if a mountain had collapsed.
Under this palm, it was as if a mountain had collapsed.
Ju Rong's expression suddenly changed. He quickly retreated. At the same time, he wielded his sword as if it was flying. However, Lin Xiong's palm blasted it away. Lin Xiong's other palm quietly stretched out. When it was close to Ju Rong, the palm energy suddenly spurted out and an extremely terrifying power blasted out.
This palm immediately made people's eyes brighten.
It turned out that Lin Xiong not only had a powerful attack, but also a delicate attack, which made it harder for people to guard against.
This palm blasted Ju Rong back and also disintegrated Ju Rong's power in an instant. Lin Xiong's attacks were continuous. His palms were like mountains and fluttering like butterflies.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Under the continuous attacks and after losing the initiative, Ju Rong was constantly pushed back and his face turned pale.
"Thank you for letting me win." Lin Xiong stopped attacking and cupped his hands in respect.
"Thank you for letting me win." Ju Rong also knew that after losing the initiative, he was at a disadvantage. If Lin Xiong didn't stop and continued attacking, it would be difficult for him to find a chance to counterattack.
A momentary loss was nothing. Ju Rong quickly adjusted his state of mind and sat quietly on the Universe Roulette. He recalled the battle just now and looked for his shortcomings to improve so that he wouldn't make the same mistake in the next battle. At the same time, he was waiting for the next battle.
Since he was here and wanted to get the Universe Sun Moon Wine, he had to show off his ability and let Wine Sage see his ability. Only then could he have a chance to get it.
Otherwise, he would be completely reduced to a spectator.
Therefore, after the battle between Ju Rong and Lin Xiong, there were immediately people who leaped onto the Universe Stage to fight again.
Among the 40 people who were invited, not many were on the Underworld Ranking. There were only nine of them. Four of them were previously on the Underworld Ranking. The remaining 27 were more famous among the younger generation. They were the rising stars and some of them even had the potential to be listed on the Underworld Ranking.
Of course, it was only potential. Whether they could be listed on the Underworld Ranking was still unknown.
After all, potential wasn't equal to strength. It was just a possibility.
Battle after battle. In front of Wine Sage, everyone showed their true ability. However, they wouldn't deliberately hurt each other. Basically, they would stop when the battle was over.
Wine Sage was very smart. He could naturally tell whether someone was good or bad.
Another battle ended. Basically, everyone would only fight one battle. Or rather, they would only fight one battle and then wait and see.
This battle wasn't just about brute force. Some strategy was needed.
"I'm Zhao Yuan." The arrogant young man leaped and landed on the Universe Stage. He glanced around and immediately pointed at Chen Zong. "Primeval Chaos Sword, Chen Zong. I heard that your sword defense is extremely strong. Even Lin Heming couldn't break through it. Coincidentally, my saber can break through anything. Come up and let me see if your sword can block my saber or if my saber can break your sword."
Chen Zong was speechless.
Primeval Chaos Sword!
He didn't say anything when he was called that.
Many titles were given by others. The titles given were usually related to one's ability.
When he fought with Lin Heming, he displayed the Unbreakable Sword Circle and Primeval Chaos Sword. That was how he got the title.
Chen Zong didn't care too much about it. He had more titles.
For example, he had the Crisscrossing Sword, Intent Sword and so on. Now that he had the Primeval Chaos Sword, it was nothing.
The Primeval Chaos Sword wasn't a bad name. If it was, Chen Zong wouldn't accept it.
After being called out and provoked, and in such an occasion, it was impossible for him not to make a move.
Since that was the case, he might as well make a move and show Wine Master his ability. He wanted to see if he could get the Universe Sun Moon Wine.
Chen Zong got up and took a step forward. His figure flashed and appeared on the Universe Stage.
Chen Zong was ranked 105th on the Dark List. He replaced Lin Heming and was a new talent. Everyone was curious about him.
Although there was some information about Chen Zong's background, it was too simple. His ability was only limited to a battle with Lin Heming.
Now, they could see it with their own eyes.
On a Universe Wheel, a purple-robed youth with long and narrow eyes had a face full of disdain. On the other hand, Li Xie Lang, who was wearing a black robe and had a cold expression, stared at Chen Zong with a trace of fierce killing intent in his eyes.
Chen Zong was the culprit behind the failure of the Heavenly Wolf Sect's operation. He had killed many of the Heavenly Wolf Sect's people and caused the Heavenly Wolf Sect to suffer great losses. He had to take revenge.
Now, he wanted to see how strong this person was.
Zhao Yuan's cultivation was actually not very high. He was only a Middle-level Half-Saint, which was the same cultivation as Chen Zong's disguise.
Wine Master just glanced at Chen Zong and Zhao Yuan and continued to drink. He was still drunk.
"Take this." Zhao Yuan sneered and suddenly shouted. Immediately, he unsheathed the long saber at his waist. A bright saber light slashed down like a landslide. Its power was extremely shocking.
It was as terrifying as a thunderbolt.
The power displayed by this saber was even stronger than Lin Xiong's.
"It's about the strength of an ordinary high-level Half-Saint," Chen Zong said to himself. It seemed that Zhao Yuan was a genius at the Marquis Level. No wonder he was so confident.
However, he was only a high-level Half-Saint and wanted to provoke Chen Zong. He really did not know the immensity of heaven and earth.
Zhao Yuan had not seen the battle between Chen Zong and Lin Heming. Otherwise, he would not have provoked Chen Zong so arrogantly.
This saber slashed down like a thunderbolt. It seemed that it was going to split Chen Zong in half.
Zhao Yuan's merciless saber made Chen Zong's face turn cold. A trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.
Chen Zong unsheathed the Heavy Dragon Sword. The dark sword light tore through the sky and instantly shattered Zhao Yuan's bright saber light. At the moment when the saber and the sword collided, an extremely terrifying power burst out from the Heavy Dragon Sword. The power was fierce and unstoppable. It was incomparably brutal like a mountain torrent. It directly repelled Zhao Yuan.
"Why didn't you defend?" Zhao Yuan was repelled and shouted. He was somewhat unprepared. What responded to him was a dark sword light.
