The competition this time was divided into five segments. The first was a battle of techniques, the second was a battle of pills, the third was a battle of weapons, the fourth was a battle of talismans, and the fifth was a battle of formations.
For a Starry Sky cultivator, each of the five segments was a great survival skill.
In order to simplify things, the rules of the competition were that the top three in each segment would be awarded 100 points, the second 50 points, and the third 20 points.
Each person could participate in up to three segments. As long as the participants from the same realm could obtain points, the points could be stacked, and the stacked points would become the total points of the realm.
Ning Cheng registered for magical powers, alchemy, and weapon battles.
In fact, Ning Cheng believed that he was most likely to win first place not in magical powers, alchemy, or weapon battles, but in Array Dao. However, he did not want to expose his true strength in Array Dao. Array Dao was different from Alchemy and Equipment Dao. At a critical juncture, it was likely to be a life-saving thing. Once he participated in the competition, even if he did not show his true strength, those Array Dao experts might be able to pry into his Array Dao technique from the details of his array formation.
Since the second Creation War was coming, it was naturally best not to expose such a trump card.
The five segments were the final segment of magical powers. No matter when, strength was the most important, so magical powers were the final segment. The first segment was the battle of alchemy. Alchemy was a necessary auxiliary technique in cultivation. The second segment was the battle of weapons. Not everyone could have a connate Dharma treasure. Good Dharma treasures were artificially refined. Because of this, Equipment Dao was an indispensable segment in the process of cultivation.
The third segment was the battle of talismans. The Talisman Dao was the most mysterious skill. Anyone who could stand in the Beyond of Heaven and Earth knew how to refine talismans. However, there were not many who could refine truly top-notch talismans. Therefore, Talisman Dao experts were the least and the most inconspicuous.
The fourth segment was the battle of formations. The Array Dao was the most mysterious segment of the five segments. This was because Array Dao experts could even kill strong enemies without making a move. This segment was placed at the back, second only to magical powers.
Apart from the battle of formations and magical powers, the other three segments used their own materials. The Beyond of Heaven and Earth did not provide any battle materials.
Under Dao Lord Mountain Gazing's suggestion, there were seven judges for this competition. Each of the seven realms that intersected with Heaven's Beyond would have one judge. The Jia Liang Realm was not considered a big realm because the Heaven's Beyond of Heaven and Earth had a close relationship with the Jia Liang Realm. In addition, the current Heavenly Lord of the Heaven's Beyond of Heaven and Earth, Feng Huangmei, was from the Jia Liang Realm. The Jia Liang Realm also had a judge, and that was Heaven Lord Feng Huangmei.
The other six judges were Daolord Mountaingaze of the Skygate Realm, Daolord Miruan of the Three Elements Realm, Daolord Liao Qianluo of the Nine Heavens Realm, Daolord Fei Yin of the Seven Aqua Realm, Daolord Jialan Feng of the Longevity Realm, and Daolord Shen Mo of the Innocuous Realm.
Apart from Feng Huang Mei, the weakest among the six was at the early stage of the Unity Realm.
At that moment, the competition platform above the Heaven's Beyond Square had already been set up. There were defensive restrictions around the platform that could only be observed with one's eyes and not with one's Spiritual Consciousness.
As the current Heavenly Lord of the Beyond of Heaven and Earth, Feng Huangmei was the first to fly and land in the middle of the competition platform.
As Feng Huangmei appeared, the Heaven's Beyond Square instantly fell silent.
Feng Huangmei felt emotional. In terms of cultivation level, his cultivation level was really nothing in the current Heaven's Beyond of Heaven and Earth. Due to the strength of Ning Cheng and Ye Mo, as well as the negotiation with the surrounding major realms, this competition had become peaceful. Even he had become one of the most influential figures in the Heaven's Beyond of Heaven and Earth.
"Fellow Daoists, it's my honor to be able to stand here today. In terms of cultivation level, there are countless people who are stronger than me. I only have the opportunity to stand here and talk to everyone because I came to the Heaven's Beyond of Heaven and Earth earlier. On behalf of the Heaven's Beyond of Heaven and Earth, I welcome any friend with goodwill to come here. "
At this point, Feng Huangmei raised his voice. "Many of you here are fellow Daoists who have been cultivating hard. In order not to waste your time, I announce the official start of the Heaven's Beyond of Heaven and Earth's competition. The first round of the competition is the Alchemy Battle. Let me reiterate that apart from redividing the realms of the Heaven's Beyond of Heaven and Earth, this competition is also to enhance the friendship between the major realms. "
No one took Feng Huangmei's words seriously, even though many reclusive experts had guessed that the second Creation War was coming. However, there was obviously no friendship involved in this competition. Occupying a piece of territory in the Heaven's Beyond of Heaven and Earth would be the most advantageous no matter which plane the Creation Gate would reopen in the future.
The person presiding over the Alchemy Battle was Fei Yin from the Seven Aqua Realm, an early-stage Integration Realm expert and a Dao Integration Alchemy Saint.
After Feng Huangmei retreated, he landed on the competition platform and greeted everyone on the Heaven's Beyond of Heaven and Earth with cupped fists. Then, he said loudly, "There are a total of 706 people participating in the Alchemy Battle. There is no round limit for this Alchemy Battle. We only need to decide the top three. The Alchemy Battle will begin now. The first round will be the void … "
"I hope I'm not late …" A cold voice interrupted Fei Yin before two people appeared from the void. The ones who appeared were two women. The woman at the back had a very weak cultivation base. Under the protective domain of the woman in front, she was unable to withstand it.
Xing Xi? As soon as Ning Cheng saw the woman who had spoken, his eyes twitched and the Creation Divine Spear on his back buzzed.
"This is a peerless expert," Xiao Xinxi, who also sensed it, whispered in Ning Cheng's ear.
"She's Xing Xi, the woman with the Green Lotus of Creation. She put away the Green Lotus of Creation today. There might be another battle later, "Ning Cheng said to Xiao Xinxi with a solemn voice transmission.
Xiao Xinxi licked her lips. She had heard that Xing Xi was powerful, so she had long wanted to give it a try.
At the moment, Ning Cheng was not worried. With Ye Mo here, Ye Mo would definitely make a move when the battle started.
Compared to when they had joined forces in the past, he and Ye Mo were now several times stronger. Back then, Ye Mo had been at the early-stage Dao Integration Realm and he had been at the late-stage Primordial Chaos Realm. Now, he was at the early-stage Dao Integration Realm, while Ye Mo was at the late-stage Dao Integration Realm. Their Dao runes had condensed. Together with Ao Can and Xiao Xinxi, he did not believe that they could not stop a woman.
Before the competition began, the Integration Realm experts who presided over the competition from the other realms had also promised each other that if anyone dared to stop the competition, everyone would attack. Other people didn't matter, but that Mountain Gaze Dao Lord's power wasn't ordinary.
If Xing Xi dared to make a move today, then Ning Cheng would welcome it.
Ning Cheng looked at Ye Mo and Ye Mo looked back at Ning Cheng. Although neither of them said anything, the killing intent had already surrounded the two. It could be seen that Ye Mo wanted Xing Xi to make a move now.
Fei Yin wasn't a reckless person. The way Xing Xi appeared was too strange. Even he, a Integration Realm primary stage, couldn't see it. This showed that Xing Xi was far stronger than him. As for the Eternal Realm tertiary stage woman standing next to Xing Xi, she was ignored by him.
"Fellow Daoist, this is the Black Yellow Grand Tournament. If you'd like to watch the battle, please take a seat at the side," Fei Yin cupped his fists and said in a neither haughty nor humble manner. After saying that, he looked at Mountain Gaze Dao Lord and the others.
Without needing Fei Yin to speak, Mountain Gaze Dao Lord and the others already stood up.
Ning Cheng looked at the woman next to Xing Xi in confusion. He also knew this woman. When he went to Everlasting Sacred Shrine, Jing Yiyi told him that this woman's name was Shu Qiang, the new saintess of Nine Plate Star Continent's Everlasting Sacred Shrine. She was also a disciple of Everlasting Sacred Shrine's Seeking Intelligence. When he killed Seeking Intelligence and destroyed Everlasting Sacred Shrine's Everlasting Sacred Tree, this woman had been watching from the side.
Ning Cheng didn't expect this woman to be so muddle-headed. In the blink of an eye, she became a powerhouse like Xing Xi and reached the late-stage Eternal Realm.
Shu Qiang didn't seem to see Ning Cheng, or if she saw Ning Cheng, she pretended not to see him. She just lowered her head and followed behind Xing Xi.
Regardless of whether Shu Qiang would seek revenge on him or not, Ning Cheng didn't care. He also flew to the battle stage. Regardless of whether he had to fight Xing Xi or not, he had to come to this battle stage.
As soon as Ning Cheng landed on the battle stage, Mountain Gaze Dao Lord's voice reached Ning Cheng's ear. "Dao Lord Ning, I know this Xing Xi. During the Creation War, she had been by Sacred Leader Green Lotus' side. I didn't expect her strength to be so strong that she could directly tear apart the realm of Heaven's Beyond. I'm far from being her opponent. "
Hearing this, Ning Cheng thought of Shu Qiang. The role Shu Qiang played seemed to be the same as the role Xing Xi played beside Dao Lord Green Lotus.
Ye Mo also flew to the battle stage. Although the other contestants hadn't come up yet, Xing Xi still felt the oppressive aura.
She didn't care and smiled faintly. "Since it's a regional competition of Heaven's Beyond, as a Dao cultivator of this universe, I'm naturally qualified to participate in the competition. Therefore, I have to participate in this round of alchemy. By the way, my name is Xing Xi. Don't make a mistake when you calculate the ranking. "
Fei Yin subconsciously looked at Mountain Dao Lord Gazing. In fact, it was Mountain Dao Lord Gazing, Ye Ning, and the other two who had planned for the competition to be held without any obstruction.
Mountain Gaze Dao Lord said faintly, "Since you're here to participate in the competition, you're naturally allowed."
After hearing Mountain Gaze Dao Lord's words, Fei Yin said to Xing Xi, "Since you're here to participate in the competition, of course you're allowed."
Then, Fei Yin didn't say anything more to Xing Xi. Instead, she said to everyone, "Due to a small matter, we had to stop for a while. Now, the competition will continue. The first round is void pill refinement. The pill to be refined is slaughter pill. The time for pill refinement is one day. Prepare your own divine spirit herbs. All contestants, please come on stage. The battle will begin now. "
Void pill refinement meant that one didn't need a pill cauldron for pill refinement. This method of pill refinement was extremely difficult for ordinary people. However, those who could stand here and participate in the competition were all powerhouses. Without a pill cauldron, there would basically be no problem.
The only problem was that everyone felt that this alchemy battle wasn't just about the Alchemy Dao. It was also a competition of strength.
The slaughter pill's level wasn't high for the people here. It was just a type of Dao Essence Dao pill. To concoct such a pill, one needed to fuse one's own killing intent dao waves. When fighting with others, using the slaughter pill could directly increase one's killing force and killing intent.
It could be said that when two pill divines of the same power concocted the slaughter pill, the one who was stronger would have a stronger effect.
