"Damn it! What on earth is this thing?"
Just as Jin Wuli realized that the situation was grim and wanted to disengage and think of another plan, he found that no matter how hard he tried, he was unable to break free from the attraction of the ridian Qi Ball, as if he were a mosquito stuck in a spider’s web.
The true purpose of Yun Xiao unleashing the Earth Devouring Ball was because he knew that even if he truly defeated Jin Wuli today, killing him might not be a guaranteed success.
Yun Xiao always pursued perfection; as the Long Xiao Battle God in his forr life, he had engaged in nurous life-and-death battles with Strange Spirits, so his enmity towards them was particularly intense.
If Jin Wuli were simply defeated today but managed to escape with his life, fears arose that once he grew stronger, no one on the Hidden Dragon Continent would be able to control him.
And the Earth Devouring Ball could devour all the concealed golden radiance, revealing the Golden Blade body, allowing Yun Xiao to show the world that his judgnt yesterday was not at all mistaken.
Swish, swish, swish...
The speed at which the Earth Devouring Ball devoured the golden light was sowhat fast, and in his panic, Jin Wuli hadn’t even thought about reverting to his human form before the golden light vanished, and his Golden Blade body was already exposed for all to see.
"What... what is that?"
Suddenly, the plaza grew sowhat silent, everyone stared blankly at the huge human-shaped Golden Blade, and a certain speculation deep in their hearts rose uncontrollably.
The words Yun Xiao spoke on the stage yesterday now echoed in everyone’s minds like a nightmare since they all knew that no matter what kind of ridian Techniques were used, a human being couldn’t possibly transform their entire body into a Golden Blade.
Even the Human and Moon Unity perford by the Crown Prince of Xuanyue Empire, Xuan Jiuding, yesterday rely wrapped his body in crescents and did not actually turn his flesh into the shape of a crescent moon.
"Damn, that guy really is a Strange Spirit!"
Relative to the rising answers called forth among the cultivators of Hidden Dragon Continent, on the northern high platform, several Tenglong Continent bigwigs suddenly stood up, particularly Qian Sanyuan, whose old face was extrely grim, tinged with embarrassnt.
Qian Sanyuan seed to sense the unusual looks from the people surrounding him because yesterday he had personally stepped onto the stage to inspect the flesh of Jin Wuli, and at that ti, he found no trace of abnormality, confirming that the individual was indeed a genuine human.
But now, with the reality before his eyes, soone whose entire body turned into a Golden Blade couldn’t possibly be a real human, indicating that Qian Sanyuan, the lofty Earth-rank Advanced Pulse Refining Master, had been terribly mistaken.
It would have been one thing if it were simply a mistaken observation, but even under the circumstances where Yun Xiao had already put forth that Jin Wuli was a Strange Spirit yesterday, Qian Sanyuan still failed to sense any strange aura at all, which made him feel quite unable to show his face.
But who could imagine that a Strange Spirit that even an Earth-rank Advanced Pulse Refining Master couldn’t see through, was spotted by a re youngster in the Mid Stage of ridian Union Realm?
"Vice Chairman Qian, Strange Spirits are to be vanquished by everyone. There’s no need to continue this battle!"
ng Liyang didn’t have as many thoughts as Qian Sanyuan, he just knew humanity shared a justified enmity with Strange Spirits. Now that a Strange Spirit had been discovered, and it had even infiltrated the final battle of the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference, he must be eliminated swiftly.
Indeed if Yun Xiao hadn’t exposed Jin Wuli’s Strange Spirit identity, and allowed him to win the championship of this session of the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference, that would have been a real joke.
Moreover, including the faces of bigwigs like Qian Sanyuan and ng Liyang from Tenglong Continent, they would also beco a joke. During the Hidden Dragon Conference they hosted, they actually let a Strange Spirit win the championship, which would be the sound of a resounding slap on their faces.
Therefore, in the hearts of these giants, there was a blaze of anger burning intensely, and they couldn’t afford to lose face in front of so many cultivators from the Hidden Dragon Continent.
"Let do it!"
Qian Sanyuan, who had lost the most face, naturally took it upon himself, but just as he was about to leap into the fray and kill Jin Wuli with a palm strike, he saw soone on the stage motion to him.
"Vice Chairman Qian, since this is the arena of the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference, let take care of this guy myself!"
Yun Xiao’s clear voice slowly spread from the stage, allowing everyone to hear it clearly, including Qian Sanyuan, so his forward stride ca to an abrupt halt.
"Are you sure?"
Now that he knew that was a Strange Spirit, and a special one at that, even if Qian Sanyuan had confidence in Yun Xiao, he couldn’t help but feel worried at this mont.
The combat strength of a Strange Spirit is even stronger than a Vein Demon of the sa level; though it seems Yun Xiao is getting the upper hand for now, if that Strange Spirit really stops holding back, it might not end so easily.
In Qian Sanyuan’s view, the earlier Jin Wuli had been restraining himself to hide his identity as a Strange Spirit, which allowed Yun Xiao to gain so advantage.
But now, with the identity of the Golden Blade revealed, Qian Sanyuan believes that in its rage, the Strange Spirit will no longer pull its punches. Yun Xiao’s words, could they be a bit too presumptuous?
"Don’t worry, with this guy’s diocre skills, how could he possibly harm ?"
On the arena stage, Yun Xiao appeared extrely confident, but as soon as he uttered these words, the Earth Devouring Ball that had swallowed all the golden light suddenly shook in response.
Just as Qian Sanyuan thought, at this mont Jin Wuli truly harbored intense hatred for Yun Xiao. Disguised as a human, he had planned to accomplish great things, yet now exposed, those ambitions were obviously gone with the wind.
Previously, Jin Wuli had indeed been holding back to conceal his identity, but now, with no more concerns, he had unleashed his strongest combat power.
Even if Jin Wuli knew that even with a victory, he wouldn’t be able to leave the Xuanyue Imperial City—after all, the big shots from Tenglong Continent were all at least powerhouse cultivators at the Earth Rank Third Realm.
"Even if I die, I’ll take you, Yun Xiao, down with !"
One could say that at this mont, Jin Wuli’s hatred towards Yun Xiao was unparalleled. Since survival was impossible, why not drag Yun Xiao down before his death?
Jin Wuli, with his full power behind the Golden Blade, instantaneously intensified the blade’s razor-sharp aura. Subsequently, the audience saw the previously invincible Earth Devouring Ball get neatly sliced into two halves.
Perhaps only Yun Xiao could sense clearly that the Earth Devouring Ball was split not because the ridian Qi he supported it with was inferior, neither was it due to Jin Wuli’s overly powerful strength, but rather the Golden Blade was so sharp that it ultimately cleaved it in two.
Moreover, Yun Xiao knew that such a sharp Golden Blade, if allowed to cut across his flesh, would render his body just like the Earth Devouring Ball, split instantly into two pieces.
Even before Yun Xiao had ti to use ridian Techniques to defend, let alone if he did use them, it was unlikely that they could stop that blade of extre sharpness, as that was not a construct of ridian Qi but a genuinely real Golden Blade.
At this critical mont, Yun Xiao suddenly gained so insight into how Jin Wuli ca to be and also understood why Vice Chairman Qian was unable to detect his Strange Spirit identity yesterday.
However, at this point, Yun Xiao simply couldn’t afford to think too much, as his life was of utmost importance since perhaps within two more breaths, that Golden Blade would be upon him.
"It’s too late to rescue him!"
Qian Sanyuan, who had just rushed forward a few steps and then halted, had an extrely ugly expression on his face. Yun Xiao had just claid he could dispose of Jin Wuli quickly, but before his words even fell, his Earth Devouring Ball had been cut in two by the Golden Blade.
It’s no big deal that a ridian Technique was broken, but that Golden Blade didn’t pause for a second. With his powerful Soul strength, Qian Sanyuan could sense that Yun Xiao no longer had the ans to dodge.
Could this remarkable and peerless youth, who had forcefully entered the final battle of the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference, with an eye even keener than his own, really about to die prematurely?
Vice Chairman Qian was thinking this way, as he couldn’t see how Yun Xiao could have any ans to counteract Jin Wuli’s deadly decisive blow. In such a situation, even an Earth Rank Peak cultivator like himself would probably only be able to dodge, because that Golden Blade was too sharp.
Apart from Qian Sanyuan’s concerns, those of the Jade Pot Sect like Yu Shu and Mo Qing had their hearts in their throats. Could this unstoppable youth really be decapitated?
Throughout the Imperial City’s central square, both inside and out, there was a dead silence as they stared blankly at the Golden Blade getting ever closer to Yun Xiao’s body. And at that mont, they saw the roughly-dressed youth unsheathe the Wooden Sword strapped to his back.
"What is that? A Wooden Sword?"
Individuals with sharp eyes like Qian Sanyuan imdiately recognized that what Yun Xiao was holding was a dark, lustrous Wooden Sword, and their hearts couldn’t help but sink.
A Wooden Sword that seed even more inconspicuous than a child’s toy—did Yun Xiao intend to use it to fend off the Golden Blade’s attack? That would be too fanciful.
Perhaps only those from the Jade Pot Sect who had seen Yun Xiao wield the Dragon Taming Sword could reveal a hint of excitent on their faces. They knew that it was not just any ordinary Wooden Sword, but a Supre Divine Weapon capable of slicing through hair.
Recalling the tis on the Spiritual Chick Battle List, Yue Qi, the top talent from the Poison Vein Sect of the Jade Pot Sect, didn’t believe it was a Divine weapon and ended up not being able to save his entire right arm.
However, no matter what, a human body could not possibly compare to Jin Wuli’s Golden Blade, so which was mightier—the unassuming Wooden Sword or the sharper Golden Blade? They would likely find out in a mont.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, a massive Golden Blade and an inconspicuous Black Wood Sword finally clashed.
