In the arena, Lin Kui, who was facing Lu Qingshan's Flying Sword directly, could feel the terror of Lu Qingshan's Flying Sword even more clearly.
His pupils shrank slightly, and his vision was filled with sharp sword light.
Lin Kui's hands quickly flipped, and his spiritual power surged out. Several instantaneous wind-type defensive spells blocked in front of him. At the same time, his body shone with spiritual light, and his defensive artifact emitted a golden light shield.
With a flash of sword light, the Flying Sword in front of Lin Kui directly disintegrated the defensive spells he hastily cast, and then hit his defensive artifact.
Although the golden light shield did not immediately shatter, its light dimmed a lot.
Lu Qingshan looked at this scene from afar, and with a thought, he did not give Lin Kui any time to catch his breath. The Peach Blossom Sword shook in the air, quickly regained its momentum, and shot towards Lin Kui again.
With his cultivation at the late stage of the Golden Elixir Realm, coupled with the Slaughter Sword Intent, the lethality of his Flying Sword had reached the peak of the Golden Elixir Realm, and was infinitely close to the Nascent Soul Realm.
Lin Kui had to use all his strength to block such a powerful Flying Sword.
But in a situation where he devoted himself to blocking the Flying Sword, Lin Kui did not have any spare energy to plan a counterattack or anything else. He had lost all initiative.
His only chance of victory seemed to be a protracted battle. After all, using the power of the Intent Realm consumed a lot of spiritual power.
When Lu Qingshan's spiritual power was exhausted and he still had energy left, there was still hope for him to turn the tables.
But with the rich spiritual power cultivated by the Taoist Technique, there were not many Golden Elixir Daoists who could defeat Lu Qingshan in a protracted battle. Unfortunately, Lu Qingshan did not have the intention to prolong the battle.
He wanted to end the battle quickly!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Lu Qingshan, who still had energy left, slightly vibrated the spiritual power in his body. Hundreds of sword qi threads shot out from behind him, like an inescapable net, and attacked Lin Kui.
Clang! Clang!
The Peach Blossom Sword also took advantage of the situation.
Kacha!
In the next instant, the peach blossom twisted, and the spiritual light barrier finally collapsed.
"Bang!"
Lin Kui's protective spirit power shattered, and a spirit light appeared on his body. It blocked Lu Qingshan's sword rain and flying swords, then wrapped Lin Kui up and rolled him out of the arena.
Without any suspense, it was a one-sided victory.
From the beginning until now, it had only been ten breaths of time. Lin Kui hadn't even cast a decent spell, completely falling into Lu Qingshan's rhythm.
Lin Kui stood up with a pale face. Looking at Lu Qingshan in the ring, he seemed to have lost his soul. "Is the gap between him and me … so big?"
…
"Wasn't he still in the middle of the Golden Elixir during the second round? How did he break through to the late-stage of the Golden Elixir in just three days? "A cultivator in the crowd noticed the change in Lu Qingshan's cultivation and gasped in disbelief.
"I knew it would be like this. This Lin Kui isn't even on the same level as Lu Qingshan.
Lu Qingshan was ranked third in the Sealed Spirit Tower's second round. Countless people think that he'll be able to rank in the top ten of the Seven Regions Dao Discussion. "Some cultivators still had lingering fears and sighed with emotion.
"After this battle, I'm afraid that no one will be foolish enough to challenge Lu Qingshan.
He's too strong. He's probably the strongest in our group.
The group challenge is just a formality to him. His real stage should be the final competition … "A third-rank cultivator who had been eliminated a long time ago asserted.
The first-rank cultivators would not fight each other in this round of group elimination. This formality was indeed somewhat reasonable.
This cultivator's guess was right. After defeating Lin Kui, Lu Qingshan had become a taboo in the eyes of the sixth group's cultivators.
The second round, the third round, the fourth round …
In the following rounds of challenges, everyone consciously avoided Lu Qingshan.
Due to the fact that there were fewer people in the second round of elimination, and the gap in the cultivators' strength was even more obvious, the time spent in the second round of elimination was much shorter than in the first round.
In the middle of the night, no one dared to challenge the first-rank cultivator anymore.
Even though there were many second-rank cultivators who did not use up their challenge opportunity, they knew that the gap in strength was too great. In the end, they gave up on the challenge.
Challenging the strong was indeed beneficial to a cultivator's cultivation. However, that was based on the premise that the strong was only slightly stronger than them.
If the gap was too great and they were simply crushed, there would be no benefits at all. In fact, those with weak willpower would even suffer damage to their Taoist Heart and lose their indomitable spirit.
However, it was worth mentioning that in the second round of elimination, none of the second-rank cultivators succeeded in defeating their superiors and obtaining a spot in the first-rank.
This also showed that the judgment of the Taoist Sect's higher-ups was indeed very accurate.
Based on their subjective opinions, the hundred first-ranked cultivators were indeed the strongest hundred cultivators participating in the Seven Realms Dao Discussion.
"Congratulations to the little fellows who are still in the first rank." The Lunar Sect Master floated in the air and slowly announced again, "You are the top 100 of the Seven Regions Dao Discussion this time.
As a reward, you can freely choose to join one of the Seven Major Dao Sects and receive a mid-grade Heaven-grade Dharma artifact provided by the Da Xia Kingdom. "
"At the same time, you will enter the final competition to compete for the top ten spots in the Seven Regions Dao Discussion."
"Next, I will announce the rules of the final competition.
There will be a total of 100 cultivators participating in the final competition. It will be a one-on-one competition. The winner will advance, and the loser will be directly eliminated. "
"Of course, in order to avoid the element of luck and ensure relative fairness, we will avoid the situation where two cultivators who are too strong meet early, causing the cultivator who should have obtained a higher ranking to have no choice but to be eliminated early.
Therefore, the opponents and groups of the final competition will not be randomly assigned, but will be personally discussed and arranged by us. "
"The final competition will begin in the Dao Discussion Realm in five days, and it will also be announced to all cultivators. The specific groups will also be announced at that time!"
After announcing the established rules, the Lunar Sect Master's figure gradually faded from the void. At the same time, countless rays of spiritual light appeared and enveloped all the cultivators in the Dao Discussion Realm. An extremely faint repulsive force was born.
In the next instant, the scenery in the space changed. All the cultivators left the Dao Discussion Realm and appeared in the Dao Discussion City.
This round of group elimination was very easy for Lu Qingshan. He only had to fight one round with Lin Kui, and he was able to advance to the final competition.
But who would have thought that in his previous life, this was an insurmountable moat for the players?
…
In the group elimination, although the difference in strength between the first and second cultivators was very obvious, and they did not display too many techniques, many things could be seen when combined with their performance in the second round.
Just based on the tip of the iceberg of strength that they had displayed, there were already some busybodies who had begun to calculate the top ten of the Seven Regions Dao Discussion. There were even some clever people who had secretly opened bets.
The cultivators in the Dao Discussion City were all top figures of the younger generation of the human race. Many of them came from large sects or cultivation clans.
These cultivators were rich, and when they were in the mood to play, they were very generous with their bets. In addition, the rankings of the Seven Regions Dao Discussion were extremely eye-catching, so these bets could be considered quite a business opportunity.
