In the past, Duan Jinchen would never have believed that such a thing would happen in the Kongming Sect. After all, almost all of the previous disciples had been defeated in the first few rounds.
But now, Luo Ping had displayed heaven-defying battle strength and reached this stage in one fell swoop. It was unimaginable even in his dreams. Duan Jinchen and Luo Ping had just exchanged a few words when they saw Reverend Ziji and the Great Supreme Elder walking over.
"Greetings, Reverend Ziji. Greetings, Senior!"
Duan Jinchen and Luo Ping said respectfully at the same time. Although they didn't know the Great Supreme Elder, he was still a Dongxu Stage expert from the Purple Sun Palace. Naturally, they didn't dare to neglect him.
"Luo Ping, do you know the identity of the Demons sect?"
Reverend Ziji directly asked Luo Ping. The Great Supreme Elder also stared at Luo Ping, hoping that he would give an answer.
Duan Jinchen was a little worried when he heard this. He didn't understand why the Great Supreme Elder would ask such a question. After all, the Demons sect had hidden so deeply that no one had discovered them. How could Luo Ping know them?
"I don't know them!"
Luo Ping answered without hesitation.
"You don't know them? Then why did he shout for revenge when he killed you? "
The Great Supreme Elder asked in a deep voice. He had always felt that something was fishy. From Reverend Ziji's description, the Demons sect seemed to be hell-bent on killing Luo Ping.
Even if Luo Ping had destroyed his concealment, the Demons sect should have immediately left the Purple Sun Palace to prevent the experts from the Purple Sun Palace from appearing.
However, the Demons sect actually stayed here and swore to kill Luo Ping. This was a little strange. It seemed that there had been enmity between the two before.
As a Dongxu Stage expert, the Great Supreme Elder wasn't so easily fooled. He had to get to the bottom of this.
"I think I must have forced him to show himself and ruined his plans. Anyway, I've never seen this Demons sect before."
Luo Ping's tone was firm as he spoke. Of course, he knew the other party's intention. If they knew that he had a grudge with the Demons sect, even if the Demons sect didn't come here to kill him, he wouldn't be able to get away with it.
At that time, if the Purple Sun Palace thought that he was the one who attracted the Demons sect, even if they didn't kill him, they would disqualify him from the competition. Therefore, Luo Ping would never admit that he had anything to do with the Demons sect.
When Sage Ziji and the old man heard this, they exchanged glances. Then, Sage Ziji said to Luo Ping, "Since you don't know him, you should focus on the competition."
The Wise Man Ziji and the old man left after that. The old man did not leave the plaza. Instead, he sat down with the Wise Man Ziji, seemingly intending to watch the rest of the competition.
"Luo Ping, adjust your breathing and prepare for the next competition. I'll take my leave first."
Duan Jinchen naturally knew the purpose of the Purple Sun Palace's visit when he saw the Elder of the Purple Sun Palace walking over. Therefore, he instructed Luo Ping.
"Got it. Thank you, Uncle!"
Luo Ping smiled gratefully. He was actually very clear about Duan Jinchen rushing to the plaza just now. Duan Jinchen also smiled in relief when he heard this and left the plaza.
After the crowd dispersed, this sudden incident finally calmed down completely. Luo Ping walked to the edge of the plaza and began to adjust his breathing.
After all, this round of the competition wasn't over yet. Due to the appearance of the Demons sect, there were still two groups that had been forced to stop. Now, they had returned to the plaza to continue fighting.
Luo Ping sat cross-legged at the edge of the plaza. He focused his mind and calmed his breathing. However, he wasn't adjusting his breathing, but was recalling what had happened before.
The previous situation was indeed very dangerous. That green sword had really pierced through his Navel and flew out from his back.
If it weren't for his quick reaction, he would've been seriously injured. He instantly opened the space of the Gate of Xuantian in Navel and blocked the path of the green sword, causing the green sword to actually pass through the space of the Gate of Xuantian.
The reason why he didn't wake up immediately was because he didn't want others to suspect him. He had narrowly escaped this crisis and defeated the disciples of the Heartless Sword Sect.
However, he had made a great enemy for no reason, and it was the Demons sect. This made him very depressed, and he was even more fearful of the Demons sect's methods.
This Demons sect was actually able to recognize him as the murderer of his son. It was indeed a bit unimaginable. However, it had already happened. Luo Ping wasn't afraid.
The Demons sect was only in the late Heavenly Life Stage. There were many monsters hidden in his Gate of Xuantian. If he really encountered the Demons sect, he wouldn't mind ganging up on them.
While Luo Ping was meditating, the sect master of the Heartless Sword Sect was also called before Ziji Spiritual Master and the Grand Elder to ask some questions. When he returned, his expression was very ugly.
This time, not only had he lost a powerful disciple, but the Demons sect had also used his disciple's body to sneak into the Purple Sun Hall. The sect master of the Heartless Sword Sect was both mentally and physically exhausted.
After returning, he looked at Luo Ping with a gloomy gaze. There was even a murderous intent in the depths of his eyes.
"Godfather, Big Brother Luo is too miraculous. He was pierced through Navel, but he was still safe and sound. Do you know why?"
Gong Xiang, who had been worried about Luo Ping, asked in admiration after seeing that he was safe.
"Godfather, I don't know either. He probably cultivated some kind of secret technique. After all, there are thousands of techniques on the path of cultivation. There are all kinds of mysterious techniques."
Invincible Cang Bai shook his head in response.
The remaining two groups of disciples quickly concluded. Next up was the most important stage of the competition. After all, the top three disciples would receive the same reward. There was no need to determine the exact ranking.
In other words, in this round of competition, excluding the person who received a bye, the two winners of the remaining four would directly obtain the opportunity to enter the Purple Sun Hall to cultivate.
As for the two who lost, they would compete again. The winner would face off against the person who received a bye. Whoever won would become the third lucky person.
Because both a bye and a loss were relatively dangerous, all five of them hoped that they could directly participate in the competition and win by force. That way, they wouldn't have to worry.
Among the five of them, apart from Luo Ping, the other four were from the first group, two from the second group, and one of them was a disciple of the Heartless Sword Sect.
The other three were from the Scarlet Cloud Sect of the first group, the Thunder Rumbling Sect of the second group, and the Solitary Law Sect of the second group.
After the five of them finished drawing their lots, they looked at their number plates nervously. None of them hoped that they would be the one who received a bye.
Luo Ping opened his number plate and saw that it was number four. He didn't receive a bye. He couldn't help but smile. At the very least, as long as he won this round, he would have succeeded.
"F * ck!"
The disciple of the Thunder Rumbling Sect cursed and walked down the square with an ugly expression. Everyone immediately understood that he had received a bye.
The remaining four people found their opponents according to the order of their number plates. Luo Ping's opponent was a disciple of the Solitary Law Sect.
At this stage of the competition, everyone had a sufficient understanding of their opponents. They wouldn't underestimate their opponents. After all, those who could fight to the end weren't easy to deal with.
The disciple of the Solitary Law Sect had relied on his sect's superior technique, the Heavenly Solitude Divine Art. He had been invincible until now.
Although Luo Ping thought highly of his opponent's technique, he didn't feel any pressure. After all, his opponent definitely wouldn't be able to withstand his Kongming Six Fusion Sword.
Although the level of the two techniques was about the same, the difference in cultivation speed and mastery of the technique would result in a different level of power.
Luo Ping's mastery of the Kongming Twelve Swords had far surpassed his opponent's mastery of the Heavenly Solitude Divine Art. This was the difference between the two of them.
Luo Ping and his opponent didn't exchange any words. They immediately started fighting. His opponent's aura spread out instantly, and a powerful force enveloped the surrounding space.
Luo Ping only felt that the space around him was constantly being squeezed and torn, as if it could break apart at any moment. His body seemed to be the center of this pressure.
The powerful tearing force caused Luo Ping's body to suffer a severe impact. Although he didn't know what kind of power his opponent was using, it was already very strong.
If his physical body hadn't been strengthened to an unbelievable level, he probably wouldn't have been able to withstand this power. Luo Ping smiled slightly and shook his body, repelling the surrounding power.
At this moment, his opponent's palms had already formed a seal. Countless grey flowing lights shot out from his palms and flew towards Luo Ping.
The grey flowing lights could absorb the airflow and vitality of the surrounding space. Wherever they passed, the space instantly became devoid of life, as if it had become a land of death.
Luo Ping's expression turned serious when he saw the grey flowing lights shooting towards him. Based on his previous understanding, he knew that this grey flowing light was the Heavenly Solitude Divine Light. It could extinguish life and dissolve everything.
Once it hit the enemy, it could dissolve the enemy's body, making it difficult to recover. In addition, it could also cut off the enemy's vitality, causing the enemy's strength to rapidly disintegrate.
Although Luo Ping was very confident in his physical strength and his recovery ability was relatively strong, he didn't dare to try it lightly.
He didn't want to waste time in this final battle. Thus, the white sword in his hand shook, and a soaring force suddenly erupted.
The Kongming Sexuple Sword was instantly used. Thousands of sword rays surged like a tide, rapidly spreading into the space in front of him.
The sword light swept through everything, and the incomparably powerful sword intent and killing intent immediately engulfed the opponent's grey flowing light, and then mightily shot towards the opponent's body.
The Solitary Law Sect's disciple's expression changed drastically. He wanted to fly and dodge, but only then did he realize that the surrounding space had been sealed by countless sword intents.
His True Essence surged as he tried his best to break through the sword intent seal. However, after countless attempts, he still didn't succeed. This was no longer a suppression of cultivation, but a suppression of spiritual sense.
His spiritual sense was far inferior to Luo Ping's. Naturally, he couldn't break through his opponent's sword intent. Seeing the sword rays fall, the Solitary Law Sect's disciple's body flashed, and a battle armor appeared.
As soon as the armor appeared, his body was swept by the sword-light. When the sword-light dissipated, he stood where he was without moving at all. However, with a whoosh, his armor shattered into countless pieces and fell to the ground.
The Solitary Law Sect's disciple looked at the shattered armor without any heartache. Losing an armor was better than having his body face the brink of collapse.
Because of the armor's protection, his body didn't reach the brink of collapse like the Heartless Sword Sect's disciple. However, he still suffered serious internal injuries.
