EBE Chapter 240 Battle 1 in Half-Region: Tai Chi Sect Goes Berserk!
Chapter 240 Battle 1 in Half-Region: Tai Chi Sect Goes Berserk!
Gu Jiancheng was also surprised, but when he looked at this so-called Lotus Saint, he instantly understood.
This Lotus Saint is actually the Holy Domain Inspector, but this is an avatar; his true form has not descended.
Therefore, its aura was indeed not weak, but it was still much weaker than Cang Ding Tian.
"Greetings, Master!"
But at this moment, Meng Fusheng and the others immediately knelt down.
They hadn't expected that the host would actually arrive today.
Meanwhile, the spectators in the arena began to discuss the battle.
The fact that the Lotus Saint himself came is enough to prove the importance that Lotus Pavilion attaches to the Taiji Sect.
"Hehe, the arrival of the Lotus Saint in Tianding City is a great honor for our Dingtian Holy Land!"
Then Cang Dingtian laughed.
"Haha, it's my honor!"
"The competition hasn't even started yet?" Lian Sheng asked, frowning.
hum!
Before the sound faded, a pillar of holy light suddenly descended from above Tianding City.
The holy light enveloped the arena, transforming it into a barrier.
"The Holy Domain Prodigy Tournament, now begins!"
"I will now announce the rules."
Immediately, a voice seemed to resound from beyond the heavens, and although no figure descended, everyone understood that the voice came from the Holy Dao Palace!
In an instant, all one million cultivators fell silent, becoming extremely quiet.
"The Heavenly Pride Competition is divided into upper and lower halves. All junior disciples below the Heavenly Ranking in the lower half are welcome to participate!"
"The battle in the lower bracket will be a free-for-all, and the last one hundred juniors will qualify to enter the upper bracket to compete."
"After the battle in the second half of the tournament ends, the two hundred juniors will be drawn into groups to compete in the final round. The top ten in the final competition will be qualified to enter the Holy Dao Palace for half a year of cultivation."
"The champion of the competition will receive a special reward from the Holy Path Palace."
"This competition prohibits the use of magical artifacts and the killing of anyone. All juniors below the Heavenly Ranking may now enter!"
In an instant, after the sound from the sky faded away, exclamations of surprise erupted in the arena.
No one expected that the rules of this Prodigy Tournament would be so simple, and the battles in the lower bracket would be a free-for-all. Wasn't this completely targeting the Tai Chi Sect?
Because everyone knows that the Taiji Sect and the three holy lands are in a four-way balance of power, but compared to the three holy lands, the Taiji Sect is the weakest.
If it were a free-for-all, then the Tai Chi Sect disciples would inevitably become the target of everyone's attacks and face a situation of being besieged.
Since the top talents on the Heavenly Ranking cannot participate in the battles in the lower half of the bracket, even the strongest, Gu Jiancheng, can only watch!
This was absolutely devastating news for the Tai Chi School.
At this moment, even the War Saint Cang Dingtian couldn't help but frown as he looked around.
Because the three of them had previously suspected that the Lotus Pavilion was backed by a powerful figure from the Supreme Saint Dao Palace, the Supreme Saint Dao Palace would surely protect the Taiji Sect.
But now these rules are targeting the Taiji Sect, leaving them completely baffled.
"You'll have to rely on yourselves for the rest of this half." Gu Jiancheng looked at Yuan Da and the others behind him from the direction of Taiji Sect.
He was ranked number one on the Heavenly Ranking, so he could only watch.
"Sect Master, rest assured, anyone who dares to stand in our way will be crippled!"
A ferocious look immediately appeared on Yuan Da's face. He was born to fight, and he had been waiting for this battle for a month!
"go!"
Immediately, Yuan Da, carrying his staff, led all the Tai Chi Sect disciples onto the arena in the square.
In an instant, all the outstanding juniors of the Holy Domain surged forward like a swarm of locusts crossing a river.
Although the Battle of Guixu resulted in the loss of many Earth Ranking cultivators, the three holy lands have been recruiting new talents continuously over the past month. Thus, in just a few breaths, thousands of juniors gathered on the huge plaza.
These younger generations tacitly divided themselves into three major camps. Only one hundred spots were available for the upper half of the tournament, which was something the three holy lands had to fight for.
The Tai Chi Sect side, on the other hand, numbered only about twenty people, standing in a corner of the arena, appearing so weak and outnumbered.
For a time, many cultivators under the three holy lands also focused their attention on the direction of the Taiji Sect.
They had received orders before they came up that they must join forces to drive out the Taiji Sect cultivators before the battle between the Holy Lands, in order to wipe away the shame of the Holy Lands' defeat in front of the Taiji Sect!
"Hehe, I feel like we've become the prey?" Cai Kun waved his finger and sneered.
"Fatty meat?"
"These pieces of trash aren't even worthy!"
"I'll take care of the Dingtian Holy Land side by myself. Xingzhou, you take Xue Lian and the other four to wipe out the Haoran Holy Land's forces. Xiao Ziyan, you take the rest of the group and just hold off the Lingshan Holy Land side. I'll come back to help you."
"Is there a problem?" Ape bared his fangs and asked in a deep voice.
"No pressure!" Wei Xingzhou and Xiao Ziyan said almost in unison.
The three of them are currently the strongest fighting force of the Taiji Sect, and each of them is responsible for one side, which is obviously the most explosive way to fight.
Even if I'm injured today, I'll still slaughter them until the world is turned upside down!
"Then, kill!"
boom!
In the next instant, the ape, whose fighting spirit had surged to its limit, pounded its chest and roared. With a shake of its arm, the ancient demonic form suddenly appeared, and its demonic blood boiled!
"One strike can shake the heavens and the earth!"
hum!
Immediately, amidst the gasps of the crowd, the ape suddenly leaped into the air. By the time the cultivators from the Dingtian Holy Land on the arena recovered, he had already swung his staff high into the air.
The club, now resembling a colossal pillar of heaven, grew to eight thousand feet in height before crashing down.
The oppressive aura was so terrifying that it seemed to be able to wipe out everything!
"What... what is this guy trying to do?"
"One person, no, one demon, fighting against the Heavenly Emperor alone?! Have they gone mad?"
"But why is this demonic ape's aura so terrifying? Its combat power is probably comparable to that of a half-saint!"
When they saw the extremely domineering clubs falling, many of the onlookers finally came to their senses.
The expressions of those leaders of super sects, in particular, changed drastically in an instant!
Because this half-saint level combat power is no longer a monster on the Earth Ranking, but a saint-level combat power of the major holy lands!
Now that they've appeared in this lower half of the bracket, isn't that just stomping on noobs?!
"not good!"
"run!"
At this moment, the younger generation of Dingtian who had gathered together on the arena finally came to their senses and scattered like birds and beasts.
boom!
But in the blink of an eye, Ape's staff had already struck the ground.
With a loud bang, a large section of the arena exploded instantly.
The aftershocks alone sent countless sect disciples flying off the arena, leaving them severely injured and unconscious, like dead dogs!
Although no one died from this blow, Ape Da clearly showed no mercy!
In fact, it seemed as if everyone could see his murderous intent!
Once Yuan Da goes berserk, he doesn't care about any of the rules of the Dao Palace.
Thus, with just one blow, the Dingtian Holy Land was utterly devastated.
But that wasn't all. Almost simultaneously, a cold sword aura, as thin as a reed, suddenly flashed across the arena from nothingness.
It wasn't until this sword swept across the eight wastelands, like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, severely injuring countless juniors of the sects under the Haoran Holy Land, that everyone saw a sword cultivator standing in mid-air, appearing above the heads of the Haoran Holy Land's cultivators.
This sword cultivator had ethereal wings on his back, radiating a chilling sword intent, and even seemed to have acquired a bit of the flavor of the Sword Realm!
"Buzz!"
Before everyone could recover from the shock of that sword strike, another manifestation of the sacred Ling Mountain, Xiao Ziyan, had already arrived!
Although her combat strength was not as great as Yuan Da's, her Golden Phoenix Demon Soul suddenly rose up, and her demon blood boiled. She swung the Purple Chen Spear given to her by her mother and, as if she had no one else in her eyes, directly stabbed into the crowd!
Similarly, this shot showed no mercy or hesitation.
She wouldn't care if someone died from that shot.
Xiao Ziyan is a demon by nature; all she wants to do is fight!
boom!
In an instant, the purple spear light pierced through the void, and a large number of Buddhist cultivators were directly pierced and sent flying, their blood spraying like mist into the sky!
If it weren't for the fact that the physical bodies of Buddhist practitioners are not weak, and that they were wary of Ape Da's attack, someone might have actually died from that shot!
In short, the sudden and brutal attack by Yuan Da, Wei Xingzhou, and Xiao Ziyan caught everyone completely off guard!
This includes all the cultivators watching the battle, as well as all the Lotus Pavilion cultivators, including the Holy Maiden Xuanji.
Because, faced with the potential siege of the three holy lands, the Taiji Sect unexpectedly chose to take direct action!
They could even attack the three holy lands simultaneously.
What shocked them even more was that each of these three individuals possessed combat power almost comparable to a demigod!
This is almost at the level of a holy son or daughter of a holy land.
They practically ruled the lower half of the bracket as if it were their own territory!
Are we really going to suppress these thousands of cultivators from the three holy lands just because it's only the Taiji Sect?!
For a moment, the seven saints of the holy lands above the sky all had gloomy expressions.
In front of a million cultivators from the Holy Domain, isn't this a slap in their face?
"waste!"
Cang Dingtian let out a cold snort.
"Hehe, don't go too far!" Gu Jiancheng said, offering a reminder.
Cang Dingtian felt that the cultivators in the lower half of the area were too weak, but Gu Jiancheng still had to rein in these three wild horses that were like runaway horses.
After all, if someone really died, it would be hard to explain.
"There are many of us, what are we afraid of?"
"on!"
Meanwhile, the cultivators under the Holy Land, who had regained their composure, unleashed their full power and surged towards Ape and his companions like locusts.
"Hehe, brothers and sisters, we can't let them steal the spotlight, let's go!"
At this moment, Cai Kun led the remaining people, all unleashing their full power, and charged forward.
Although their current combat strength is not as good as that of Ape and his two companions, they are still proud.
If not now, when?
Thus, Xue Lian and the other three joined the battle and came to Wei Xingzhou's side.
Although they were facing a combined attack from over a thousand Daoist cultivators from the Haoran Holy Land, the Five Elements Sword Formation suddenly activated, and sword energy burst forth unrestrainedly.
The five joined forces, their swordsmanship merging to instantly transform into a five-colored sword realm, annihilating all the falling Taoist techniques and supernatural powers!
Cai Kun's side had the largest number of people. Feng Yunxiao unleashed a powerful longbow attack, while Changsun Linglong spat out extremely powerful fire snakes as hidden weapons.
For a time, even though the younger generation under the Holy Land had launched a major counterattack, they were still being suppressed!
The Taiji Sect alone managed to defeat the three holy lands completely, leaving them utterly helpless!
"A sword formation technique!?"
For a moment, even Jian Jiuming of the Vast Holy Land couldn't help but frown, his heart filled with trepidation.
He was hailed as the number one sword saint in the Holy Domain, so he could immediately tell at a glance what an unparalleled swordsmanship lineage the sword formation performed by Wei Xingzhou and his group of five possessed!
He simply couldn't understand where all these monstrous talents and top-tier inheritances came from in the Taiji Sect!
