(Third Update: I went out and got a heatstroke)
The sword light seemed to have turned into a blue thunderbolt, carrying a terrifying power that could destroy everything. It instantly broke through the air, leaving a dazzling trace. That kind of power was invincible, assassinating everything.
Piercing Dragon!
It was the ultimate move of the Sword Art of Baili Miles. In the inner universe, there was no such thing as a divine art, only a unique skill. The ultimate move was the ultimate move of the unique skills. Once it was used, it was bound to be a terrifying and fatal attack.
Chen Zong felt a chill for no reason, and a strong sense of crisis broke out in an instant. In an instant, he saw a blue thunderbolt with a monstrous sword power that broke through the air and bombarded toward him. It was going to kill him mercilessly.
A threat!
Chen Zong felt an obvious threat. From the corner of his eyes, he saw the malicious and ferocious killing intent on Bai Liyan's cold face through the thunderbolt sword light.
This was the unique skill of the Sword Art of Baili Miles that Wu Jie had mentioned.
It was indeed very terrifying. With Bai Liyan's strength at the peak of the Nine-star level, he could actually make Chen Zong feel threatened. After all, Chen Zong's strength was not an ordinary Ten-star level.
However, the absolute gap in strength, especially the gap between the Nine-star level and the Ten-star level, was very big and not so easy to cross. However, the ultimate move of the Sword Art of Baili Miles could do it. It was really terrifying to threaten a Ten-star level with a Nine-star level.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Zong was struck by the blue bolt of lightning and was directly pierced through.
A smile suddenly appeared on Bai Liyan's face. So what if you're stronger than me? The ultimate move of the Flying Sword Art of the Baili family is a terrifying killing move that transcends stars. It's extremely powerful and unparalleled.
However, in the next moment, Bai Liyan's face suddenly changed because the one that was pierced by the Piercing Dragon was not the real Chen Zong, but an illusion.
An illusion that could pass off as the real one.
If it was an illusion formed by high-speed movement, it would be difficult to pass off as the real one and confuse others. However, an illusion of the heart could. Even if it only had one-tenth of the strength of the real one, it was enough to confuse others in an instant. Those who could distinguish between the real and the fake in an instant were usually stronger than Chen Zong.
"It's actually fake." The two Blazing Phoenix guards were secretly surprised. At that moment, they also thought that Chen Zong had been hit. They didn't expect that it was fake. It was like an afterimage, but not like an afterimage.
It was more like a clone.
In short, it was very interesting. However, with their level of cultivation and eyesight, it was difficult for them to completely understand it.
In an instant, Bai Liyan's expression changed drastically. He felt all the hair on his body stand on end. A strong sense of crisis surged in him, and he felt like he was about to explode.
Dodge!
Without any hesitation, Baili Yan immediately burst out with his full speed. His body and sword became one as he turned into a sword light and quickly dodged. At the same time, he crushed a jade pendant. The moment the jade pendant was crushed, it released a powerful energy fluctuation that surrounded his body and formed a layer of protection.
This was his life-saving trump card. It was a life-saving trump card given to him by the Baili Clan. It was enough to defend against the attack of an eleventh-star and would be difficult to break in a short time. Only a twelfth-star attack could break it in an instant.
Chen Zong's figure appeared. He unsheathed his sword and immediately unleashed the Heavenly Light Sword Drawing Technique.
The power of this sword was very powerful. Ordinary ten-star cultivators couldn't defend against it. However, when it hit the protection on Bai Liyan's body, it was like a stone sinking into the sea. It couldn't break through at all. Instead, it was completely absorbed.
"You will definitely die." Bai Liyan's vicious voice immediately sounded. The murderous intent was extremely shocking.
With the protection on his body and the speed of the Hundred Mile Flying Sword Technique, Bai Liyan completely burst out and immediately rushed out, intending to escape.
Since his strongest attack couldn't do anything to his opponent, it wouldn't be a good thing to continue. On the contrary, the protection wasn't endless. There was a limit to it. He had to leave first before making any plans.
Even if Chen Zong wanted to chase after him, it would be difficult for him to do so. This was because the two ten-star cultivators had already arrived and wanted to snatch the name card in Chen Zong's hand.
This name card couldn't be stored in a storage artifact. Chen Zong had already tested it. There seemed to be a layer of mysterious power on the name card that prevented it from being stored in a storage artifact.
He had no choice but to keep it close to his chest.
The other nine name cards were also snatched by other people. They were about to break out of the encirclement and immediately leave the Phoenix Facing Stage to hide. They would only appear after the banquet started. This way, they could save a lot of trouble.
Chaos!
Below the Phoenix Facing Stage, there was extreme chaos and a great battle broke out.
A few unlucky nine-star cultivators were killed. The other nine-star cultivators were terrified and quickly ran away.
Chen Zong drew his sword and slashed out. After breaking the saber light, his body flashed and split into three. Including his original body, there were four figures that flew in different directions.
Heart Image!
Of course, Chen Zong had a total of nine heart images. However, when he was in the outer universe, releasing nine heart images at once would consume a lot of energy. If he were to do it in the inner universe, the energy consumption would increase by more than ten times.
With his current strength, if he were to release nine heart images, it would consume about forty percent of his energy. It was very shocking. Therefore, Chen Zong didn't want to do it unless he had no other choice.
Unleashing the power of the three Dao Heart Phantoms would consume more than ten percent of his strength, but it was enough to confuse the enemy.
Although the heart images' energy was only a tenth of Chen Zong's, Chen Zong controlled the heart images to release their aura completely while his original body restrained it. He made it so that his aura was the same as the heart images, making it harder for others to distinguish.
Was it real or fake?
At that moment, the two ten-star cultivators didn't know which one was real. After a slight hesitation, the four figures immediately flew in different directions.
Chase!
Intercept!
At this moment, there was no time to hesitate. Because if there was any hesitation, time would be wasted.
Four figures shot out, and two of them were pursued by the two Ten-star experts. Blade Light slashed down, directly cutting them to pieces. The Canghai Torrent also tore that figure to pieces.
"It's fake."
"Absolute b * stard!"
The two of them immediately realized that they had made a mistake in their judgment. They had chased after a fake and not the real body. With this delay, the real body had already fled far away. That's right. At this moment, Chen Zong had already rushed out of the range of the Phoenix Facing Stage and into the crowd. He was as nimble as a fish as he flew away.
Flying was not allowed in Heaven Phoenix City. This was the rule. Whoever violated it would be punished.
Of course, if it was someone like the Ancient Phoenix Divine Maiden, no one would dare to punish her. The so-called punishment was completely relative.
Flying was allowed in the fight for the name cards on the Phoenix Facing Stage. This was loosening the restriction. However, flying was not allowed after leaving the Phoenix Facing Stage.
Thus, in just a few breaths' time, Chen Zong had escaped far away with the name card.
The faces of the two ten-star cultivators who were competing with Chen Zong were ashen and extremely gloomy. Immediately, the person with the saber chased after Chen Zong without giving up. He looked like he was going to catch up with Chen Zong and snatch the name card. The other person, however, gave up. He turned around and rushed to the others to participate in the fight for the name cards.
After getting the name card, Chen Zong's heart did not fluctuate too much. He was only a little excited, but he quickly calmed down.
After all, getting the name card did not mean that he had obtained the right to participate in the banquet. There was still time. Before the banquet truly began, others could still compete with him for the name card. If it was snatched by someone else, then the name card would no longer belong to him. Naturally, he would lose the right to participate in the banquet.
The banquet did not matter. The most important thing was that at the banquet, it was very likely that he would be able to see the true face of the Ancient Phoenix Divine Maiden and come into contact with her. That was the most important thing.
Taking the name card, Chen Zong quickly returned to his room in the restaurant. Only then did he take out the name card and look at it carefully.
This was a palm-sized name card. There was a pattern of a golden-red phoenix spreading its wings on it. It was very lifelike, as if it wanted to rush into the name card. With that golden-red phoenix as the source, a faint halo spread out and covered the entire name card.
It was also because of this layer of power that the name card was difficult to destroy and could not be stored in the storage divine tool.
Chen Zong observed it for ten breaths, then put the name card back into his pocket.
Now, he just had to wait. Wait for the banquet to begin. At that time, he would go and participate with the name card.
As for now, many thoughts flashed through Chen Zong's mind. Because Chen Zong knew that the others who did not snatch the name card would definitely not give up. They would definitely make other moves. At that time, it would be very normal for him to be targeted.
At this time, it was best to hide so that others could not find him and avoid trouble. However, Chen Zong did not know where he could hide. He was unfamiliar with this place.
Since that was the case, then he could only face the next trouble. With a sword in hand, there was nothing to fear.
Finally, the fight for the name card at the Phoenix Facing Stage also ended. A piece of news was spread. The banquet would be held at sunset three days later.
Before the banquet began, the others could continue to fight for the name cards. However, there was a rule that powerhouses above the ten-star level were not allowed to fight. Once they did, they would be expelled immediately. If they were invited to intervene, the inviter would also be punished and expelled.
In other words, if they wanted to fight for the name cards, the highest strength could only be at the ten-star level.
If it was only at the ten-star level, Chen Zong was not afraid. Even if it was at the eleven-star level, Chen Zong was not afraid.
After the rules were announced, the undercurrent in Sky Phoenix City was turbulent. It was as if there was an invisible wind and clouds changing. The invisible torrent was constantly rushing and surging.
Chen Zong's super strong perception could feel that the invisible pressure was slowly invading.
It was only one night. When the sky was slightly bright, Chen Zong's door was knocked. The knocking was rhythmic, low and powerful.
"Who is it?" Chen Zong opened his eyes and spoke neither slowly nor hurriedly.
"Sir Chen Zong, please open the door. I have something to discuss with you." A low voice came from outside the door. The person did not say his name and identity. Instead, he responded with his own rhythm.
"The name cards are not for sale." Chen Zong thought for a moment and immediately understood what was going on. He responded without hesitation.
The voices outside the door instantly fell silent. In the next breath, the door was directly broken open by a great force. A tall figure, like an iron tower, directly stepped in. When his foot landed, the room seemed to be about to sink.
