The one who approached was none other than the contemporary true disciple of the Blood Demon Hall, president of the Blood God Association, Wang Zhen, along with a projection of Liu Miaozhen from the Yin Yang Demon Sect.
The Sword Disciple of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect, Chi Jianxin, upon seeing them, imdiately pulled a long face:
"What, are you coming to mock us before the fight is even over?"
Liu Miaozhen covered her mouth and chuckled lightly:
"Sword Disciple, you guessed right, I am indeed here to mock you."
Wang Zhen smiled beside her.
Wan Yu and Yuanjue, the two true disciples, looked frustrated.
......
On the other side, Ding Lingyu was secretly sending a ssage to Su Yu:
"Su Yu, what do you think of the strength of this super genius from the Yin Yang Demon Sect?"
Su Yu, still savoring the recent battle between Lv Sheng and the monk, instinctively replied:
"The strength is not bad, the twelve Yin-Yang demons are indeed impressive."
Ding Lingyu’s eyes lit up and he promptly asked:
"Just not bad?"
"Are you confident you can beat him?"
Su Yu imdiately realized and asked:
"Is there no one on your side who can beat him?"
"Haha, as you saw, after that monk from the Buddhist Sect, no one has gone up on stage for a while, definitely no one can beat him."
"Hmm...."
Su Yu pinched his chin, nodded, and said:
"It is indeed a good opportunity for fa."
His inner excitent had already started to stir; a hundred thousand taels of gold and a top-tier Tier Eight treasure were just part of it. More importantly, it was rare to encounter such a strong opponent at the sa stage, and his hands were itching for it.
"If I sign up now, they won’t stop , will they?"
Ding Lingyu hurriedly said:
"He is setting up an arena challenge against all Qi Refining experts from the three righteous sects. Anyone who is at the Qi Refining stage can sign up."
"Oh, and the registration fee is just a selection hurdle. It will be refunded to you regardless of whether you win or lose after you compete."
"Hmm, I know."
Su Yu ca out from the audience, turned around, and paid ten thousand taels of gold at the door to sign up, and then teleported to the contestant area.
A newcor suddenly ca in, imdiately attracting the attention of many, but most didn’t recognize him, and after a glance, they looked away. It was still more interesting for the two true disciples of the demon sects to co by and mock.
Only Ding Lingyu ca running over, whispering:
"I’ll take you to et Brother Wan."
Su Yu waved his hand and said:
"I’ll et him after the fight."
After speaking, he opened the internal interface of the arena with a thought and selected the challenge application.
The power of space rippled, his footing lightened, and he appeared again in a place that was a Grotto Heaven.
The arena had been quiet for a long ti and suddenly there was soone on stage to challenge, imdiately attracting everyone’s attention. Chi Jianxin, who had been mocked, turned his head to look at the figure on the stage, and asked with an unhappy face:
"Who is this again? Didn’t we just say that you shouldn’t go up if you don’t have enough strength?"
Everyone looked at each other, all expressing that they didn’t recognize him, except for Ding Lingyu and Ye Xiyi. The latter’s pupils slightly shrank and his eyes flickered upon seeing Su Yu.
As for Ding Lingyu, he squeezed out and raised his hand, saying:
"I recognize him."
Imdiately, hundreds of eyes looked over. He seriously said:
"I introduced him. His na is Su Yu, a core disciple of our sect’s Xuankong Lineage. He is extrely powerful, the strongest Qi Refining expert I’ve ever seen."
In fact, Ding Lingyu only knew that Su Yu was strong, but wasn’t very clear on how strong he was or whether he could beat Lv Sheng. But that didn’t stop him from going with the flow and earning this 10,000 gold introduction fee.
He’s not wealthy now. Ever since the Thousand Feather Association was destroyed because of him, his status within the family has plumted.
Although his efforts and strength prevented him from being completely abandoned, he was no longer the primary candidate for family cultivation.
A thousand gold that he could easily have co up with before is no longer within his reach.
At this ti, soone chuckled lightly and said:
"Did you say he is the strongest Qi Refining you’ve seen?"
Ding Lingyu glanced at this forr rival who had caused him to lose everything, suppressed his inner anger, and replied:
"Yes."
"What a joke, yet another person none of us know, and dares to claim to be the strongest Qi Refining. You must be crazy for money."
Ding Lingyu said indifferently:
"It’s your business if you don’t recognize him. Perhaps you’ve been too ignorant to see him, how rash to be so quick to judge, aren’t you afraid of getting slapped in the face?"
The person laughed, raised his thumb and said:
"Alright, I’d like to see how capable this friend of yours is to dare claim to be the number one in Qi Refining."
The Sword Disciple of the Nine Heavens, Chi Jianxin, was initially planning to get angry, but seeing the commotion here, he withdrew his attention and looked towards the arena.
Others also stopped arguing and all looked towards the arena.
Su Yu, having teleported into the Grotto Heaven, surveyed the situation on the arena. As with all competitions, the rules were clear: no tools, no elixirs, no spirit pets, just a much larger battleground.
The Yin Yang Demon Heads of Lv Sheng, the demon heads summoned by the Demon Sect, the zombies, fierce ghosts, and poisonous insects he refined, all belong to a kind of Taoist magic and are not prohibited.
Correspondingly, his Celestial Ghost Transformation and Dragon Transformation also belong to a kind of personal ability and Taoist magic, and are not prohibited either.
This ans he can now transform into a dragon and crush Lv Sheng with one palm.
Of course, he wouldn’t do that. His intention in coming here was to challenge Lv Sheng and test his own regular strength. Using one palm to crush him would make coming to the arena unnecessary.
The sixty-second countdown had not yet ended, and Lv Sheng had already summoned twelve pairs of Yin Yang Demon Heads to surround himself. Among them, twelve Yang Demons transford into Pure Yang Dharma Aspects, and twelve Yin Demons transford into Supre Yin Demon Bodies, together forming the Yin Yang Millstone Grand Formation.
He stood within the suspended Yin Yang Millstone Grand Formation, arms crossed, examining Su Yu with curious eyes, and said:
"Daring to challenge at this ti, you must be quite strong. I hope you can hold on for a little while longer, allowing my Yin Yang Millstone Grand Formation to fully unleash its power."
Su Yu laughed heartily and said:
"I’m afraid my strength is too great for your Yin Yang Millstone to contain."
"Damn, two pretentious show-offs!"
No sooner had they exchanged a few words, than the many spectators could barely hold back, and even several true disciples, including the one from the Yin Yang Demon Sect, were sowhat speechless, except for Wang Zhen from the Blood Demon Hall. The president of the Blood God Association was now looking at Su Yu with uncertainty.
"Damn, it’s him."
He had a very deep impression of Su Yu’s appearance. After all, a true disciple of the sa level as himself had completely fallen right under his nose, a mory he’d carry for a lifeti.
"If it’s him, then the one from the Yin Yang Demon Sect might not be able to handle him."
He glanced at Liu Miaozhen, hesitated for a mont, and eventually said nothing.
Primarily because it wouldn’t make a difference if he did speak up; no interference from outside could reach the inside of the arena, not even sound transmission.
No matter what was happening outside, as the countdown approached its end, everyone turned their gaze towards the arena, wanting to see if this person could defeat Lv Sheng.
With only ten seconds left on the countdown, Su Yu raised his head, as a stream of azure light rose from above, coagulating into a cyan treasure canopy suspended above his head, strands of precious light cascading down to protect his whole body.
Then, with a flip of his right hand, he took out the Nine Heavens Purple Thunder Hamr, while his left hand held the Nine-Ring Immortal Canopy.
As soon as the countdown ended, Su Yu’s Purple Thunder Hamr quivered in his hand, and a ray of purple thunder burst forth, tearing through the sky and blasting toward Lv Sheng in the blink of an eye.
However, Lv Sheng had already set up the Yin Yang Millstone Grand Formation before the countdown ended. Twenty-four Yin Yang Demon Heads simultaneously channeled mana to form a thick barrier. The purple thunder crashed into the barrier, shattering into countless pieces of broken lightning, causing violent ripples to spread out.
The power of the Thunder Strike was 30,000 200% spell damage. With Su Yu’s current spell damage at 28,000, the total becos 56,000 30,000 = 86,000 spell damage.
But the demonic dispelling feature of the Nine Heavens Purple Thunder Hamr can deal 100% additional damage to monsters, demons, ghosts, and demonic treasures. Each strike could deal up to 172,000 damage, capable of piercing through a Tier Seven Defense Treasure in a single thunder hit.
Standing among the Yin Yang Demon Heads, Lv Sheng praised:
"Your treasure’s power is quite impressive, another strike like that can break through the defense of one of my Yin Yang Demon Heads!"
"But I’ve already set up the grand formation, the defense of twenty-four Yin Yang Demon Heads combined is close to five million. With damage reduction added, it’s impossible for you to harm without a stronger treasure."
Smirking slightly, he gestured for Su Yu to continue:
"I’m sure all the orthodox true disciples are watching. After you, I doubt anyone will challenge again. As the last one with the courage to step forward, I’ll give you a chance: I won’t retaliate next, allowing you to attack for a full minute. How about that?"
Arrogance!
Brashness.
Su Yu laughed, and asked:
"Do you think you’re tough?"
Lv Sheng smiled and nodded, speaking the most arrogant words in a humble tone:
"I don’t dare claim invincibility. After all, Blue Mountain Island is just a small place, and there’s a bigger world out there. But within the bounds of Blue Mountain Island, I don’t think anyone in the Qi Refining stage can break through my twelve Yin Yang Demon Heads."
"...."
Su Yu smiled and said:
"Since you’re so confident, why not make this a life-and-death duel, deciding both the victor and life or death!"
Too arrogant, Su Yu couldn’t tolerate it. Blue Mountain Island shouldn’t allow anyone more pretentious than himself.
Lv Sheng’s smile imdiately faded, and he frowned, asking:
"What did you say?"
"A life-and-death duel, sign a life-and-death contract!"
Lv Sheng’s expression froze, staring at Su Yu gravely.
On the audience and contestant sides, the crowd burst into a heated discussion, excitedly talking about the situation.
"Who is this Su Yu, being so arrogant?"
"I like it, with guts. A real man should face each other in a true battle, deciding both the victor and life or death!"
In the contestant area, many looked at Ding Lingyu, Brother Wan asked with a probing look:
"Are you sure he’s not crazy? I’ve been out for a few years and haven’t returned to the sect. When did we get such an amazing core disciple?"
Ding Lingyu smiled slightly and said:
"Mr. Su has indeed risen in recent years, a peer of mine, always very strong. I believe if he dares to say such things, he must have confidence."
Brother Wan nodded:
"Then let’s watch and see."
anwhile, on the other side, many contestants from the Yin Yang Demon Sect were mocking, saying any random stray dares to challenge Brother Lv, truly not knowing their limits, urging Lv Sheng to accept the challenge.
Of course, their words couldn’t reach Lv Sheng. He wasn’t influenced by others, but after so careful consideration, he made up his mind:
"Being able to refine twelve pairs of Yin Yang Demon Heads during the Qi Refining stage ranks among the top ten in Demon Sect history. Plus, with the sect’s inherited treasures in hand, and soone unknown daring to challenge to a life-or-death duel, truly clueless."
Thinking of this, he looked up and said:
"If you want to sign a life-and-death contract with , you’ll need to put forth an equivalent stake, including a Tier Nine Treasure and two Tier Eight Treasures, as well as one hundred thousand taels of gold, otherwise, you’re not qualified to wager with !"
Su Yu chuckled lightly and said:
"I have everything you’ve ntioned, let’s get soone to notarize!"
