I saw Sun Yuan jumping down from the tree branch and then coming to the water's edge.
"Look carefully, this move of mine is called the Divine Ape Skill. Of course, this is just a name I gave it, you can call it whatever you want. This is a move. I gather internal force in my hands and then squeeze the air to form a vacuum ball. Then I inject the internal force into the vacuum ball and shoot it out. The power of this move depends on how much internal force you can gather into the vacuum ball." Sun Yuan said as he raised his hands. The next moment, he put his hands together with force, and the air in his palms was squeezed away by the internal force, leaving a vacuum zone.
Then, a stream of transparent gas quickly entered the vacuum from Sun Yuan's hands, and as more internal force gathered in the vacuum, it was as if a light bulb lit up between his hands, and the brightness of the light bulb became brighter and brighter.
This is when the internal force has gathered to a certain level.
The more Ye Liuyun looked, the more surprised he was. As his internal energy was almost gathered, Sun Yuan suddenly pushed with both hands. The next moment, the internal energy in his hands shot out like an energy cannon and hit the water surface.
However, since Sun Yuan's strength was too weak, this attack only caused splashes on the water surface, and it did not seem to be very powerful.
"Okay, you see it." After Sun Yuan released this move, he looked at Ye Liuyun.
But when he saw it, he was immediately stunned, because Ye Liuyun had already begun to gather internal energy in his hands.
"Huh? You mastered it so quickly?" Sun Yuan was shocked.
After observing Sun Yuan's move, Ye Liuyun understood it almost at a glance and felt that it was not difficult at all.
"That's it, right? It seems very simple." Ye Liuyun looked at the internal energy in his hands growing bigger and bigger, and his face was full of excitement for a moment.
Ye Liuyun's internal strength is definitely much stronger than Sun Yuan's. Ye Liuyun's internal strength soon became as big as a basketball.
"It's almost there. You should feel a stream of air trying to erupt from your hands. Just push it out." Sun Yuan reminded.
Ye Liuyun had already sensed it, and then he shouted loudly, spraying the air towards the woods opposite.
"Go." The internal force shot out white light, and then erupted an air shock wave the size of a basketball. The attack was very fast and it rushed into the woods in an instant. Moreover, the compressed internal force exploded directly after it touched an object.
"Boom." The forest was directly covered by the exploding internal force and turned into powder in an instant.
This method is somewhat similar to the magic power impact of a monk, but it is obviously different.
Ye Liuyun looked at the destructive power of this move, his eyes filled with surprise.
"This, this, this, so powerful, I finally have a means of long-range attack." Ye Liuyun cheered as he looked at the destructive power of the move.
Because this move can actually hit the enemy from hundreds of meters away, and she thinks the distance should be even farther.
"This move will improve as your internal strength increases, and it can be used throughout your life. Old Sun, I once used this move to directly destroy a large star. Well, go and have fun on your own. By the way, the Nine Revolutions Magical Ability I taught you has more effects than these, you need to study it carefully on your own." After Sun Yuan finished speaking, he returned to the tree branch again and closed his eyes to rest.
Sun Yuan's last words woke Ye Liuyun up again. In fact, Ye Liuyun's current use of internal force was still too simple. But there was nothing she could do. How long had she mastered the Nine Revolutions Divine Ability?
After learning this method, Ye Liuyun hurriedly left the island in the middle of the lake and came to a remote area.
"What kind of Divine Ape Kung Fu is that? It sounds so ugly. I think we should just call it Qigong Cannon. Eh? The name Qigong Cannon sounds familiar, as if it is a move from a cartoon in my previous life. Now that I think about it carefully, the feeling of the power presented is also similar." Ye Liuyun muttered in his heart.
Afterwards, Ye Liuyun tried to use it a few more times, but these times, Ye Liuyun did not gather too much power. During the attempts, she also discovered that this Qigong cannon could be released in other ways.
For example, you can gather your internal energy into your fingers and then shoot it out. This way, you can shoot out a tiny Qigong cannon with strong penetrating power. It can also be performed with one hand, but it is more powerful when performed with both hands.
With this method, Ye Liuyun doesn't have to engage in close combat with the enemy. Judging from the battle with Gu Hongyue, close combat has certain advantages, but also weaknesses. In close combat, she currently only knows one move, the Falling Flower Palm, and the rest of her methods are just ordinary fists and feet.
"Let's take advantage of the time we have now to develop it. I hope we can develop something interesting." Ye Liuyun did what he said.
She quickly calmed down and studied the direction of her internal force and the operating rules of the Nine Revolutions Magical Art. Since Sun Yuan said that there were many things in the Nine Revolutions Magical Art that she needed to understand on her own, the effects would definitely be more than that.
Chapter 304: Confrontation (6000 words)
Let's take a look at the situation at Lundao Peak. A battle as protracted as the one between Ye Liuyun and Gu Hongyue is not common in sect conferences. It is rare to see a battle where both sides start and fight back and forth.
In most matches, the fight can be over within one minute from the start, because it is not a life-and-death fight after all. Even if it is a life-and-death fight, under normal circumstances, due to the inequality in strength and background, ending the fight within three minutes is already considered a long time.
Ye Liuyun is just a freak who cannot be judged by common sense. He cannot represent other cultivators. Most cultivators will feel very uncomfortable if they suppress you by one realm stage, let alone suppress you by a higher realm stage.
For example, you and I are both in the Dao Palace Jindan stage, you are in the early stage, and I am in the middle stage. If the combat power of the early stage of Jindan is 100, then the middle stage is 140. This gap is already very large. Unless you have powerful treasures and skills to make up for it, otherwise the chance of winning is estimated to be less than %.
The gap between the Jindan stage and the Huaying stage is even greater. Normally, you can be killed in one move. Only within the same realm can you still compete.
This sect conference has a lot of luck involved. If you are assigned an opponent of the same realm but different stage, that is already a chance for you. If you are assigned an opponent of unequal realm, I advise you to just forget about it.
If someone's realm is higher than yours, he is destined to have more powerful skills and more background. It is better for you to admit defeat directly to avoid embarrassment.
This is the result that the sect's top leaders want. The reason for this arrangement is to quickly eliminate some lucky guys. Otherwise, if a thousand people are equally strong fighting each other, it would be a waste of time.
Basically, the knockout round can be ended today, but starting from the next round, it will be impossible to arrange it like this. The next round will be a 1V1 match of people. Those who can stay are either freaks or Taoist monks above the Nascent Soul stage.
The number of core disciples in Yun Sect is also limited. Generally speaking, each faction only has 50 core disciple quotas, which means that Yun Sect has only more than core disciples in total, and then each peak has one direct disciple and one sect seed. These more than people are the highest fighting force of Yun Sect disciples.
But out of these more than 300 people, 200 will be eliminated. You can see how fierce the competition is.
Therefore, starting from the second round, it is basically a battle between strong opponents. As long as the difference is not too outrageous, it will definitely be more exciting than the first round.
In addition, people have a strange heartbeat. It would be fine if there is no hope, but once you give you hope, they may want to give it a try. Therefore, as time goes by, there will be more and more disciples who fight desperately.
Especially in the final battle for a spot in the Nanling event, I'm afraid many people will choose to give it a try, because once they win, the sect will definitely use the best healing medicine to heal their Dao Palace origin injuries.
Even if you lose the bet, it means you have fought for it.
Soon, dusk arrived. The white sea of clouds was illuminated by the dim sun and turned into a fiery sunset. It was very spectacular. The competitions in each arena had basically reached the end stage.
"No. 99 and No. 100 come on stage." Qin Su announced the last game in venue No. .
When Lin Aoxue heard that it was her turn to go on stage, she breathed a sigh of relief. She had been waiting for seven or eight hours, and it was finally her turn. She suddenly felt a little envious of Ye Liuyun for being the first to go on stage.
As Qin Su finished reading the name, Lin Aoxue's body flashed and appeared in the center of the ring.
But when Lin Aoxue saw his opponent, he immediately frowned, because the opponent arranged by Yunzong for Lin Aoxue was not very good. He was only at the peak of the Jindan realm, which was far worse than the opponent Ye Liuyun faced.
Lin Aoxue is a warmonger. The stronger the opponent, the happier she is.
As for the person opposite, he was a disciple from Qingyun Peak. She had known for a long time that her opponent was Lin Aoxue, but he had no intention of admitting defeat.
Because most people only know that Lin Aoxue is invincible in the same realm, and they don’t know that Lin Aoxue possesses explosive power that surpasses the Nascent Soul realm.
There is another type of person who refuses to admit defeat. They think they may have a chance.
"Hey! The sect is deliberately favoring outstanding disciples. Look, they have only arranged a cultivator at the peak of the Jindan realm for Senior Sister Lin. Don't they know that Senior Sister Lin has the power to defeat a cultivator at the peak of the Huaying realm with one sword?" Someone couldn't help but complain.
"What can we do? The sect conference is nominally for the purpose of selecting outstanding disciples to participate in the Nanling event. The sect did not directly name us, so it's good enough that they gave us a chance." Someone else said.
Indeed, the Yun Sect had every reason to specifically nominate disciples to participate, and this made it easy to eliminate some powerful disciples. Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue alone eliminated several core disciples of Huoyun Peak. This was actually a bad thing rather than a good thing for the Yun Sect.
This so-called competition for a spot is reserved for those dark horses that are not very prominent.
Today, nearly dozens of dark horses appeared in the ten venues. What is a dark horse? It is a person who is undoubtedly recognized by anyone with a discerning eye, but she has reversed the situation and defeated her opponents.
People like this usually keep a low profile in the sect, and generally don't show off. However, they will not miss the opportunity to further rise in the Nanling Festival.
For example, in venue No. 9, a rare formation master was born. He relied on the power of the formation restrictions and defeated a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage using the means of the Jindan stage.
In venue number two, there was also a disciple from Qingyun Peak who used a combination of sword formations that was so magical that he also defeated a senior brother who was much stronger than him.
Some people used powerful magic weapons, which were probably obtained accidentally when they were out for training. However, it is hard to say whether these people can perform well in the second round.
"Senior Sister Lin, please teach me." Disciple No. 99 in venue No. bowed to Lin Aoxue.
The opponent was a disciple of Lei Yunfeng. Judging from his expression, he had no intention of admitting defeat and still wanted to try his luck.
Lin Aoxue nodded slightly, then drew out her sword. The sword in Lin Aoxue's hand was a mysterious weapon named Jinglong. It was an attributeless sword that could carry power of any attribute. It was the one she had obtained in the Black Wind Mountains last time.
Lin Aoxue has already reached the Dao Palace realm. If she wants, she can at least activate half of the power of this sword.
"Let's get started." Lin Aoxue gestured.
This disciple from Leiyun Peak took out a long sword that flashed with lightning, a top-grade spiritual weapon. A Taoist Jindan stage cultivator who possessed a top-grade spiritual weapon was actually considered a dark horse. After all, many treasures used in the Nascent Soul stage were only mid-grade spiritual weapons.
If he were fighting against an ordinary early Nascent Soul cultivator, he would have a great chance of defeating the opponent. Many such dark horses have already appeared in other venues.
---------------------------------
"A top-grade spiritual weapon, quite interesting. This Xue Jin guy is so skilled in magic. I have never seen him use this weapon in other occasions." A disciple of Lei Yunfeng who knew Xue Jin said in surprise.
But even so, people were not optimistic about Xue Jin.
When Xue Jin heard Lin Aoxue's words, he immediately showed a sharp look. He raised his hand and cut the blade. The cut on his hand immediately bleed and was absorbed by the weapon.
This guy knew that if he wanted to defeat Lin Aoxue, he would have to pay a certain price. He was prepared to use his own blood and essence to fully activate this top-grade spiritual weapon and allow it to unleash 100% of its power.
Just with this mouthful of essence and blood, under normal circumstances, it would take an estimated month of recuperation to recover.
As the blood activated the spiritual weapon, a fierce electric current began to flow through the blade.
"Lightning Slash." After Xue Jin activated the power of the sword, he slashed at Lin Aoxue through the air.
A streak of lightning, like a ferocious beast, spread towards Lin Aoxue. With the blessing of a top-grade spiritual weapon, the destructive power of this sword at least reached the power of the early stage of Nascent Soul.
However, this strike should not be at full strength. Under normal circumstances, a fully activated high-quality spiritual weapon can exert the destructive power of the late Nascent Soul stage.
Seeing the lightning coming like a galloping beast, Lin Aoxue did not choose to dodge. Instead, she swung her sword back, and a green bird condensed by the power of wind immediately flew towards the thunder beast.
The animal and the beast collided with each other and exploded at the same time, the two moves canceling each other out.
"This?" Xue Jin's expression changed, and he increased his strength. A few more slashes of sword fell. This time, three bolts of lightning slashed towards Lin Aoxue.
Lin Aoxue shook her head slightly, her body flew up and turned into a tornado, shattering three lightning bolts in an instant and rushing towards Xue Jin.
When Xue Jin saw this scene, he knew that he could only use his strongest attack. After exchanging two moves with Lin Aoxue, he realized that Lin Aoxue did have the ability to fight against opponents of higher levels. His realm advantage was basically nothing in front of her.
"Purple Thunder Blade, revive." Xue Jin threw up his weapon and poured all his strength into the long sword. The long sword immediately burst out with dazzling lightning, and the lightning quickly turned into a thunder beast that looked like both a unicorn and a dragon.
The aura emitted by this thunder beast has at least the power of the late Nascent Soul stage. This is Xue Jin's largest territory.
"Roar..." After the thunder beast appeared, it sprayed a breath of lightning at Lin Aoxue. If Lin Aoxue didn't use some tricks, she might not be able to block this attack.
But this time, Lin Aoxue did not use the power of her own fairy palace. The Jinglong in her hand was filled with a faint golden light.
"go."
Lin Aoxue knocked the sword away, and the sword was immediately stained with green light. The green light easily cut through the lightning light, and then, under Xue Jin's incredible gaze, it directly pierced through the body of the thunder beast.
"This? This is impossible? Puff!" The spirit of the weapon was broken, and Xue Jin himself was also implicated, and he directly spat out a mouthful of blood.
He has kept this sword on his body for many years to nourish it. Not all spiritual weapons can use the original power of the weapon. The cultivator must have a sufficient degree of compatibility with the weapon.
If his attack was used against those ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators, he should have been able to win, but he encountered a cheater, then there was nothing he could do.
Lin Aoxue also used the power of her weapon just now. This is a mysterious weapon, so it is easy for her to break Xue Jin's top-grade spiritual weapon.
To be precise, if Lin Aoxue didn't want to play with her, it would be over in one move.
"You lose." After breaking the opponent's weapon power, Lin Aoxue appeared beside him and pointed at Xue Jin coldly with her sword.
Xue Jin lay on the ground, looking at Lin Aoxue with an unwilling face. He couldn't understand why this happened, but when he saw the sword in Lin Aoxue's hand up close, his face changed.
"This? A Xuan-level weapon?" Xue Jin said in disbelief.
The difference between a mysterious weapon and a spiritual weapon can be seen by observing the sword closely. Even without releasing any power, Lin Aoxue's sword exudes a faint golden luster, and it is obvious at a glance that it is extraordinary.
When Lin Aoxue saw that the other party was so concerned about the weapon in her hand, she knew what she was thinking.
"Don't think too much. If I want to defeat you, one move will be enough. I just want to see what trump card you have. To be honest, your trump card is enough to deal with ordinary Nascent Soul Realm cultivators, but it is far from enough to deal with me." After Lin Aoxue finished speaking, sheathed the sword, turned around and left.
Xue Jin was speechless. He must have known Lin Aoxue's battle record and just wanted to give it a try. However, he didn't expect to be defeated so easily.
"Whose realm is higher? Oh my God, this is so unfair." Xue Jin stood up dejectedly. He had been preparing for more than ten years, hoping to make a move like a dragon emerging from the abyss, but he didn't expect that he would be beaten back as soon as he came out.
"Oh! These two sisters are both monsters. I'm afraid Lin Aoxue hasn't even used 30% of her strength. It seemed that what she had just done was just the power of the weapon, right? What kind of weapon can so easily break the full-strength attack of a top-grade spiritual weapon? Even a top-grade spiritual weapon would find it difficult to do so, right?" someone speculated.
"Do we still need to guess? It must be a Xuan-level weapon, a treasure that even ordinary elders in the Four Extreme Secret Realms may not possess. Yet she, who is only in the Dao Palace Foundation Establishment stage, possesses it. Alas, comparison makes one feel dreadful." Another person sighed helplessly.
Qin Su himself was also surprised. First of all, the Yun Sect definitely did not give the Xuanqi to Lin Aoxue. After all, they themselves did not have enough treasures of the Xuanqi level, so how could they possibly give them to Lin Aoxue? The Yunxia Sect's magic treasure was only a low-grade Xuanqi.
But I must have obtained stronger weapons last time in Black Wind Mountain.
A moment later, the Yun Sect leaders announced that the elimination round was over and that the qualifying round would begin, which would be a one-on-one match. All the Yun Sect leaders would come to watch the match.
Watching the battle through the Xuan Guang Mirror cannot accurately determine the abilities of the disciples.
After defeating his opponent, Lin Aoxue returned directly to Bixia Valley without staying in Lundao Peak for long.
But when she returned to Bixia Valley, she found that the outer area was in a mess.
"Qigong Cannon." Ye Liuyun was seen in the stream area, continuously releasing a kind of transparent energy to attack the rocks.
Lin Aoxue was surprised when she saw this scene, because she found that the method released by Ye Liuyun was different from others and did not seem like a magic attack.
"What new tricks have you learned? Are you releasing your internal energy? I remember that physical cultivators can only rely on physical strength to fight?" Lin Aoxue landed from the sky next to Ye Liuyun.
When Ye Liuyun saw Lin Aoxue coming back, he immediately started smiling and ran over as if he was presenting a treasure.
--------------------------------
"Haha, great stuff. This was taught to me by Monkey. He named it the Divine Ape Kung Fu, but I didn't think it sounded good, so I named it Qigong Cannon. It's a way of using internal force to create a vacuum ball, then injecting the internal force into the vacuum ball, and finally squeezing the vacuum to drive the internal force out, thus achieving an attack method similar to the release of magic power." Ye Liuyun explained hurriedly.
Lin Aoxue was curious and wanted to try out the power of this move.
