Chapter 2212 Both Stopped?
Chapter 2212 Both Stopped?
Countless eyes were fixed on the upright figure in the arena and the collapsed Xu Zhaojie.
Defeated? Xu Zhaojie really lost?
The Dharma Form was shattered by a peak Tai Cang Realm cultivator in such a tyrannical manner using numerous Chaos Seals.
How can this be?
That's Xu Zhaojie!
The most outstanding successor of the Feather Transformation Sect in this generation, and the Void Prince who is recognized as having the strength to compete for a place in the top ten.
He was a peerless genius capable of briefly channeling deep void turbulence, a talent that made even experts of the same level wary. How could he have lost? And lost so thoroughly, so without any suspense?
Chen Fei's Dao Domain and Heaven-Turning Seal are so powerful?
Even the turbulent void couldn't stop his advance.
After a brief silence, a violent roar, like a star exploding, nearly overturned the entire viewing platform of the C-class arena.
"He won! Chen Fei won! He defeated Xu Zhaojie!"
"My Dao Ancestor, what have I seen?"
"The Heaven-Turning Seal smashed Xu Zhaojie's ethereal avatar. This... this is simply a god of war descending to earth."
"A true miracle, Chen Fei has made history."
"He made it into the top 81, and in such a dominant way."
"That's too powerful. That Dao Domain, that Heaven-Turning Seal... it's simply invincible."
"Did you see that? Xu Zhaojie didn't even have the strength to fight back in the end, and was completely suppressed and beaten."
Cheers, shouts, gasps of disbelief, and fervent adoration...
The various sounds mingled together, creating a sonic tidal wave that swept across the heavens and earth.
All the previous skepticism, doubts, and regrets have now transformed into the most fervent admiration and awe.
Chen Fei proved to everyone with irrefutable facts that even at the peak of the Tai Cang Realm, one can stand atop the mountain and look down upon one's peers. His strength has transcended the limitations of realm.
Amidst the clamor, a graceful figure in moon-white robes, like a fledgling swallow returning to its nest, with tears of excitement and unspeakable pride, swiftly descended from the viewing platform and instantly plunged into the arms of the figure in green robes in the arena.
It's Cao Feiyu.
At this moment, she could no longer care about being reserved or the thousands of eyes around her; all she wanted to do was hold tightly to the man she cared about so much that it broke her heart.
Feeling the trembling body of the beauty in his arms and her hot tears, Chen Fei gently embraced Cao Feiyu and patted her back.
The surrounding crowd, watching the two embracing in the center of the field, erupted in even more enthusiastic cheers and good-natured jeers.
Heroes and beauties are the most moving pictures in the world.
Just as Chen Fei and Cao Feiyu embraced, enjoying the joy and warmth of victory, in another martial arts arena, Feng Butong's battle also entered its most intense phase.
His opponent was Yue Qing, a half-step Heavenly Lord from the Heavenly Soldiers Pavilion.
Yue Qing was eight feet tall with a resolute face, and held a pair of bronze maces engraved with strange runes.
These bronze maces, named Zhenyue, are ancient treasures inherited by the Heavenly Soldiers Pavilion. They are incredibly heavy and contain the power to suppress and break magic. When combined with the Zhenyue and Hushan techniques cultivated by Yue Qing, they are infinitely powerful, fierce, and domineering.
Yue Qing was clearly well aware of how troublesome Feng Butong's Dao Ruins Return to Truth Domain was. He swung his double maces, which transformed into a sky full of dark golden mace shadows. Each strike carried a domineering intent that suppressed the void and shattered all laws.
They attempted to forcefully tear apart the various defenses of the enemy with overwhelming force and a dense offensive.
Feng Butong's expression turned solemn, no longer as composed as before.
Yue Qing's strength far surpasses that of his opponents from the previous two days. His Zhenyue Twin Maces have a certain restraining effect on the power of Dao Xu Guizhen, and can weaken the annihilation and delaying effect of the Dao Domain.
He had no choice but to push the Dao Ruins Return to Truth Domain to its limit, his figure flashing rapidly within a small space, his hands, whether fingers or palms, constantly using the exquisite power of the Dao Ruins Return to Truth Domain to neutralize Yue Qing's violent mace attacks.
"Clang! Clang! Clang! Boom!"
The sounds of metal clashing and energy colliding were deafening. The two fought with incredible speed, their figures transforming into two blurry streaks of light, crisscrossing within the training ground.
Feng's different Dao Xu finger can always accurately pinpoint the point where Yue Qing's mace is at its strongest, using the true meaning of Gui Xu to wear down its power.
Yue Qing, relying on the weight and magic-breaking properties of the Zhenyue Twin Maces, as well as his own powerful Yuan energy, forcefully broke through Feng's different finger strengths. His mace techniques were wide and sweeping, constantly squeezing and impacting Feng's different activity spaces.
In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged over a thousand blows.
The training ground was already badly damaged, with countless deep pits and cracks everywhere.
Feng Butong's breathing became rapid, sweat beaded on his forehead, and his blue robe bore several tears from the blows of the mace.
Yue Qing was also breathing heavily, but his fighting spirit was rising higher and higher, and the momentum of his double maces was becoming heavier and heavier.
Unable to gain the upper hand after a prolonged battle, a fierce glint flashed in Yue Qing's eyes. He suddenly crossed his double maces above his head, and the earth-yellow Yuan energy around him erupted like a volcano.
Twin Peaks Shake the Heavens!
He roared and slammed his double maces down.
In an instant, two towering, solid, earth-yellow mountain phantoms emerged from his double maces, carrying a terrifying power capable of suppressing all heavens and annihilating all laws, and descended upon Feng Butong.
Before the mountains even arrived, the overwhelming suppressive force had already descended, freezing and sealing off the space around Feng Butong, leaving him with no way to escape.
This is Yue Qing's ultimate move, which combines the original power of the Zhenyue Twin Maces with his ultimate understanding of the Great Dao of Power.
Faced with this deadly attack, Feng Butong's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and his previously defensive stance suddenly changed.
He stopped dodging and instead rapidly formed hand seals in front of his chest, his Dao Void Returning to Truth power converging and compressing at an unprecedented intensity.
The Dao has vanished, returning to its true form; the universe is thrown into chaos!
He let out a low growl and thrust both palms forward with a sudden burst of energy.
In the palm of his hand, a point of chaotic light, capable of bringing all things to stillness and reversing the universe, suddenly shone, transforming into a phantom image of a giant chaotic hammer, only a mile in diameter.
This is a killing move that Feng Butong developed by combining the true meaning of Dao Xu Gui Zhen with his own understanding of power: Dao Xu Hammer.
The principle is to break through the surface with a single point and make a decisive statement.
"Boom!"
The Chaos Dao Void Hammer clashed violently with the descending twin phantom peaks.
There was no earth-shattering explosion, only a dull rumble of different worlds with different rules eroding and annihilating each other.
Under the gaze of countless horrified eyes, the two seemingly unshakable earthen-yellow mountain phantoms rapidly disintegrated and dissolved from the point of contact the moment they came into contact with the Chaos Dao Void Hammer.
Yue Qing's overwhelming power was forcibly smoothed down and disintegrated by the true meaning of Dao Xu Gui Zhen.
"puff!"
As if struck by a heavy blow, Yue Qing coughed up a mouthful of blood. The light of the Zhenyue Twin Maces in his hands dimmed suddenly, emitting a mournful cry. He flew backward and crashed heavily to the ground, his eyes filled with horror and resentment.
"In the 'E' character arena, the victor is from the Danchen Sect, and is granted a title of 'Unique
Feng Butong let out a long sigh and slowly withdrew his palm, and the illusory image of the Chaos Dao Void Hammer also dissipated.
His face was pale, and his breathing was somewhat disordered, clearly indicating that the attack had taken a heavy toll. But he had won after all, defeating a formidable opponent in a hard-fought battle and also making it into the top 81.
As the fierce battle between Feng Butong and Yue Qing came to an end, and the onlookers recovered from their shock, a thought that had been overlooked by many before inevitably surfaced in the minds of countless people when they compared it with Chen Fei's victory in which he completely suppressed Xu Zhaojie not long ago.
"Feng Butong won with great difficulty. He fought more than a thousand moves before finally winning by a narrow margin."
"But Chen Fei defeated Xu Zhaojie in a relatively short time? And he almost completely dominated her?"
"Xu Zhaojie is stronger than Yue Qing, right? Especially that deep void power, it's impossible to defend against."
"Compared like this, Chen Fei's strength is actually already above Feng Butong's?"
"The strongest disciple of Danchen Sect this time might not be the chief disciple Feng Butong, but Chen Fei, who is at the peak of the Tai Cang Realm?"
"Monster! Where on earth did the Danchen Sect dig up such a monster?"
Similar discussions quickly spread among the spectators.
Feng Butong regulated his breathing for a moment, then his gaze involuntarily fell on Chen Fei.
Looking at that young yet serene face, Feng Butong felt a surge of complex emotions that were hard to describe.
I still remember that in Zhenyuan Hall, he had gently reminded Chen Fei, as his senior brother, that the Grand Competition of Ten Thousand Sects was dangerous and that he should act according to his ability and not be reckless.
At that time, in his mind, although Chen Fei was exceptionally talented, he was still a prodigy and his journey was more about gaining experience. Being able to break into the top 200 would already be an extraordinary achievement.
However, the reality is that Chen Fei not only broke into the top 200, but also the top 100, the top 81...
Moreover, he swept through the enemy with overwhelming force, even defeating a formidable foe like Xu Zhaojie with his Heaven-Turning Seal. His strength had already surpassed that of his so-called senior brother.
Moreover, he was only at the peak of the Tai Cang Realm.
Feng Butong asked himself, if he were to face Xu Zhaojie at his peak with his peak cultivation level of the Tai Cang Realm, what would be his chances of winning?
"The younger generation is truly formidable, indeed..."
Feng Butong sighed inwardly, but a sincere smile appeared on his face.
He was the senior disciple of the Dan Chen Sect. It was a great fortune for the sect to produce a prodigy like Chen Fei. He was only happy for him and would do everything in his power to protect him.
He straightened his slightly disheveled blue robe, his face regaining its gentle and peaceful expression, and strode towards Chen Fei.
"Junior Brother Chen, congratulations."
Feng Butong approached, cupped his hands in greeting, and smiled, his eyes clear and full of admiration, "This battle has brought glory to our Danchen Sect. How magnificent! I admire you, brother."
Chen Fei was meditating with his eyes closed when he heard this. He opened his eyes and saw the sincerity in Feng Butong's eyes. He stood up and returned the greeting with a cupped hand: "Senior brother, you flatter me. It was just a fluke. Senior brother's battle just now was also spectacular. That Void Hammer was incredibly powerful."
"Haha, compared to my junior brother's Heaven-Turning Seal, my little tricks are nothing to mention."
Feng Butong waved his hand dismissively, "Junior Brother has expended a great deal of energy in this battle and needs to recuperate properly. The battles to come will only be more difficult, so I won't disturb you any longer."
After saying that, he nodded to Cao Feiyu, then turned and walked aside to begin recovering as well. But in that instant, a complex emotion flickered in his eyes that he couldn't completely conceal.
The list of the top 81 was quickly finalized. Apart from Chen Fei, the biggest dark horse, all the others were outstanding individuals among the half-step Heavenly Monarchs, true geniuses selected through several rounds of brutal competition.
Behind each name lies a series of hard-fought battles and undeniable strength.
After a brief rest and the announcement of the list, the drawing of lots will begin immediately.
The lights of the nine arenas swirled once more, and new matchup information scrolled and froze rapidly on the light screen.
When the new list was clearly presented, the entire capital city fell silent for a moment, before erupting into an even more intense uproar and discussion than before.
Because, in the latest matchups, there are two games that are sure to grab everyone's attention.
"In the Class A arena, Feng Butong of Danchen Sect will face Tang Yin of Tianyan Sect."
"In the T-shaped arena, Chen Fei of the Danchen Sect faces Yu Jinsheng of the Burning Heaven Valley."
Tang Yin, Yu Jinsheng.
These two names, like two heavy mountains, instantly weighed on the hearts of all the Dan Chen Sect disciples.
Tang Yin is skilled in divination and array formations, combining offense and defense with unparalleled calculation. He has long been known as the Little Divine Calculator and is widely recognized as a top prodigy with the potential to consistently rank in the top ten, or even challenge the top five.
His reputation and strength even surpassed those of Xu Zhaojie.
Yu Jinsheng, a true disciple of the Burning Heaven Valley, is ruthless and capricious. His Burning Heaven Annihilation Technique is infamous for its ferocity. He never shows mercy to his enemies and often severely injures or cripples them. He is one of the most feared and ominous stars in this competition.
His strength is equally unfathomable, and he is considered to be no less than Tang Yin, making him a strong contender for the top ten or even higher.
The two remaining disciples of Danchen Sect, Feng Butong and Chen Fei, unexpectedly encountered two terrifyingly powerful enemies with top-ten reputations in the round of advancing to the fortieth.
This fortune is absolutely terrible.
"It's over... Senior Brother Feng is facing Tang Yin, and Senior Brother Chen is facing Yu Jinsheng... This..."
"Are they going to completely expel the Danchen Sect from the competition, leaving no one alive?"
"Tang Yin's array formation deductions are precisely the counter to sealing different Dao Ruins Returning to Truth Domains. Yu Jinsheng's ruthlessness is the nemesis of Chen Fei's opportunistic Dao Domain..."
"Danchen Sect is likely to come to a standstill today."
"What a pity. Chen Fei just created a miracle. Is this the end for him?"
"Yu Jinsheng... that's a jinx! Chen Fei is probably in danger..."
The atmosphere at the Dan Chen Sect's headquarters instantly plummeted to freezing point.
The disciples' excitement and pride had not yet completely faded when they were struck down by this sudden and brutal confrontation, leaving them pale and lifeless.
When Feng Butong saw that his opponent was Tang Yin, his expression instantly became extremely solemn, and he lost all his previous gentle and composed demeanor.
He was naturally aware of Tang Yin's reputation. This battle was likely to end badly.
After a short break, the second round of the competition officially began.
When the guiding golden light on Chen Fei's body shone and drew him into the Dingzi Field martial arts arena, the entire area around the Dingzi Field was already completely submerged by a sea of people.
Countless eyes were fixed on the scene.
Just as Chen Fei's figure solidified, the space opposite him rippled, and a figure slowly emerged.
He was a handsome young man with long, flowing hair and a striking, yet sinister and domineering air, dressed in a dark robe with flame patterns.
A faint smile played at the corners of his lips, his eyes sweeping over the entire scene with a disdainful indifference, as if he regarded all things as ants. It was none other than Yu Jinsheng of Burning Heaven Valley.
Yu Jinsheng's appearance instantly quieted down the previously noisy spectator platform.
"It's Yu Jinsheng!"
"Such a heavy aura of malevolence, I can sense it clearly even from this distance."
"No matter how strong Chen Fei's Dao Domain is, can it stop Yu Jinsheng? Besides, Yu Jinsheng is ruthless..."
"The only peak Tai Cang Realm expert facing off against the most ruthless half-step Heavenly Monarch... this duel is likely to be extremely fierce." (End of Chapter)
