When Lao Yihong came to his senses, his entire body broke out in a cold sweat. This was a rare sight for a powerhouse like him.
He had never imagined that his opponent's sword intent would affect his mind to a greater extent than his Massacre Sword Intent.
His Massacre Sword Intent relied on its powerful killing aura to instill fear and death in his opponent's heart, causing them to lose the ability to resist.
On the other hand, Luo Ping's Empty Nether Sword Intent was invisible, releasing an ethereal and untainted state of mind, causing the opponent to unknowingly relax and return to calmness.
The two sword intents were polar opposites and each had its own merits. Although the power displayed by Lao Yihong and Luo Ping was similar, Luo Ping's physical body and spiritual consciousness were extremely strong. Thus, he was able to resist the Massacre Sword Intent.
Lao Yihong's Demon Consciousness was not as strong as Luo Ping's. Thus, he was momentarily confused by the Clear Sky Sword Intent's influence.
Although he woke up in time and did not sink further, this short period of time was still enough for him to fall into a state of failure.
Victory and defeat in a battle between powerhouses could be decided by a fine line. Even a momentary mistake could determine the outcome.
After Lao Yihong came to his senses, he wanted to launch a fierce attack. However, he suddenly realized that his surroundings had been enveloped by all sorts of attacks.
Countless attacks were closely connected to each other, and there were no openings at all. They completely blocked the sword light released by his demonic sword.
Outside of these attacks, the elusive opponent smirked. Then, he raised his Demon Sword high in the air and unleashed a devastating blow in Lao Yihong's direction.
"Massacre Flames, turn into a shield!"
Lao Yihong was alarmed. He immediately gathered all the dark green flames on his body in front of him and turned them into a thick shield in an attempt to block Luo Ping's sword.
Meanwhile, he brandished his Demon Sword and continuously attacked the Extreme Illusion Array. He wanted to break through these obstructions as quickly as possible so that he could dodge.
What made him feel helpless was that, although his sword-light contained the Massacre Flames, it was not that easy to break through the various techniques around him.
Although every sword-light could break through many of the techniques, they were closely linked. In an instant, other techniques would replace them, not giving him any chance to break through them.
While Lao Yihong was feeling anxious, the shield formed by his Massacre Flames was hit squarely by Luo Ping's sword-light.
The shield trembled violently. It only lasted for a blink of an eye before exploding. It turned back into a ball of flames and was scattered by the impact of the sword light.
Ji Yihong's expression changed drastically. He felt the sword light that was slashing towards him. It contained a power that made him tremble in fear. He could not help but feel a trace of fear in his heart. He actually could not raise the thought of blocking it.
"Bang!"
The sword-light hit his body and sent him flying. He flew for several kilometers before finally stopping and falling uncontrollably to the ground.
"Bang!"
The sound of Lao Yihong falling to the ground attracted the attention of the surrounding people. They all looked over. When they saw Lao Yihong's condition, they all had expressions of disbelief.
Although the battlefield was quite large and the crowd was quite far away from Lao Yihong, they could still feel that his aura was very weak. His face was pale. It was obvious that he had been seriously injured.
Lao Yihong's crushing defeat had a huge impact on the crowd. After all, in their hearts, Lao Yihong's cultivation was far beyond their reach.
Now, a kid who was only at the initial stage of the Devil Change State had defeated Lao Yihong in such a short period of time. How terrifying was this person?
The crowd didn't dare to imagine. They could only look at Luo Ping's position, preparing to see the current state of this terrifying person.
At this time, Luo Ping's figure flashed and appeared beside Lao Yihong. He said coldly, "You've lost. Do you want to leave the Bamboo Forest Map yourself, or do you want me to continue beating you until you leave?"
The outcome of the battle had been decided. Lao Yihong was seriously injured and didn't have the strength to continue fighting. Luo Ping naturally didn't hesitate to ask him to leave the Bamboo Forest Map.
"Leave? Hahaha, I didn't think that after painstakingly scheming and laying down a trap, I would still be defeated in the end. "
"Kid, you're very strong. But remember, when we get out, I won't let you go."
Lao Yihong's face was full of bitterness. He didn't think that he would be defeated by an early stage Devil Change State brat.
However, he wasn't satisfied. He still wanted to find a chance to deal with Luo Ping after they got out. He believed that next time, he would definitely beat Luo Ping to a pulp.
"Okay, I'll wait for you to come find me at any time."
Luo Ping smiled faintly, not caring at all. He then looked in the direction of the distant battle.
"Stop!"
Luo Ping shouted. Everyone stopped fighting and looked over.
"Lao Yihong has already been defeated. Do you think that there's a need to continue fighting? Of course, if you really want to fight, I'll accompany you to the end. "
After Luo Ping finished speaking, his aura suddenly rose. A powerful pressure spread out, causing the late stage Devil Change State experts to feel fear in their hearts.
Hearing Luo Ping's words, Lao Yihong's four helpers, as well as his two junior brothers, all hesitated. Their strength couldn't compare to Lao Yihong's, so they naturally weren't a match for Luo Ping.
They originally thought that after the battle, Luo Ping's strength would be insufficient. But now, he was still full of strength. This caused the six people to be shocked, but at the same time, they also understood the result of continuing the battle.
Thus, the six people looked at Lao Yihong, asking for his opinion. After all, they were Lao Yihong's team.
"There's no need to continue fighting. Let's leave."
After Lao Yihong finished speaking, he immediately took out a talisman and left the bamboo forest without any hesitation.
Seeing this, the other six people sighed inwardly and also left the bamboo forest. In the bamboo forest, only Luo Ping's group of ten people were left.
After seeing Lao Yihong and the others leave, Luo Ping's aura suddenly dissipated. His entire body was like a deflated balloon, wilting in an instant.
Under the astonished gazes of everyone, Luo Ping immediately sat down cross-legged, took out some medicinal pills, and swallowed them into his stomach. Then, he took out many spirit stones and quickly began to recover his strength.
At this time, everyone also understood that in reality, the aura that Luo Ping had displayed before was just a show. It was to scare Lao Yihong and the others.
They didn't expect that he had actually scared them. Otherwise, they were afraid that they would have continued to fight, and the final result would be uncertain.
Seeing that Luo Ping was recovering his strength, Huo Qing and the others quietly stood to the side and waited. At this time, there was still about an incense stick's worth of time before the end of the team battle.
They had already secured victory, so there was no need to worry. Even if Luo Ping hadn't recovered his strength and was still in a state of cultivation, he could still be teleported out. It wouldn't affect their results.
While waiting, Cheng Biao and the others walked to Huo Qing's side. Cheng Biao bluntly asked, "Brother Huo, what should we do with these four people? Should we kick them out too? "
Huo Qing looked at the four people in the distance and said, "There's no need. If we kick them out, then wouldn't we have worked for nothing?"
"If only our team is left in the end and obtains the precious pearl, then according to the rules of the team battle, we will need to replace the last two teams in the order of leaving the Bamboo Forest Diagram."
"This way, Senior Brother Kuang will be among them. Taking into account the results of the individual battle, he will definitely obtain a spot to enter the Holy Land. Therefore, we can't kick them out."
"Since there are three spots, it's better to let Senior Brother Ku Yun and Senior Brother Bi Xian obtain them. After all, they are a little better than Senior Brother Kuang."
Huo Qing analyzed the current situation and didn't intend to kick the four people out. After Cheng Biao and the others heard this, they suddenly understood and nodded in agreement.
The four people on the opposite side had originally felt that things were not going well, but when they heard Huo Qing's words, they relaxed and distanced themselves from Huo Qing and the others, waiting for Luo Ping to finish his cultivation.
Just before the time limit was about to end, Luo Ping finished his cultivation. Although his cultivation hadn't recovered to its peak state, the damage caused to his physical body by forcibly mobilizing the Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi and True Essence Power from the Heaven and Earth Spirit Veins had already been healed.
Seeing Luo Ping stand up, Huo Qing immediately went up to him and said with a face full of smiles, "This time, it's all thanks to Brother Tan. Otherwise, the result would have been really hard to say. Thank you very much, Brother Tan."
As Huo Qing said this, he cupped his fists and bowed. Luo Ping felt the sincerity in his words and responded with a smile.
"Brother Huo, you're too kind. Since I've accepted your invitation, this is what I should do. Besides, haven't you already paid me?"
"Furthermore, I'd also like to enter your sect's Sacred Land and experience it for myself. Of course, I can't let you not get a spot."
What Luo Ping said was the truth. To put it bluntly, he and Huo Qing had an employer-employee relationship. There was no need to thank him.
Luo Ping was indeed very interested in the Sacred Land of Carnage. Therefore, he would naturally do his best to help Huo Qing get a spot.
"Time's up. Let's leave the Bamboo Grove."
Huo Qing didn't pretend to be pretentious. Since the time limit was up, he reminded everyone to leave the Bamboo Grove.
Everyone took out their talismans and poured their demonic yuan into them. Their figures flashed and disappeared from the Bamboo Grove.
Ever since Bi Xian and Ku Yun came out of the Sacred Palace's training grounds and informed Speedy and the others of Lao Yihong's actions, Speedy and the elders were rather angry.
It was supposed to be a fair competition, but such a scandal had happened in front of so many outsiders. As the sect master and elders of a first class demonic sect, they felt ashamed.
Later on, when Lao Yihong also came out of the Bamboo Grove, the crowd couldn't help but snicker in their hearts. They secretly mocked him.
Lao Yihong also knew that the sect master and elders must be very angry with him. Therefore, he stood far away and didn't say a word.
