Heavenly Prodigy Assembly (4)

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

A barrage of poisonous spikes struck the Pure Yang shield, Wuge, hidden in the mist of poisonous smoke, lurked like a greedy wolf, its eyes fixed on Yang Lingjian in the center.

For crazed Yaomo, once they get going, they forget many things, such as Yan Wugou's prior instructions to hold back against the geniuses of the Lu Wu Realm.

At this moment, the Wuge had long forgotten all of that. Now it only wanted to savor the boy's exceptionally sweet soul and listen to his wails as it chewed him up.

Chant!!

Suddenly, Sword Cry hummed, and a Pure Yang Sword-Ray, with an intense and sharp aura that was hard to look at directly, slashed straight at the Wuge.

"How dare he?" The Wuge's thoughts raced, and before it could think any further, it opened its mouth wide, like a bottomless black hole. Its powerful devouring force formed strong arms that pulled at anything that entered the area.

However, the intensely burning Pure Yang Sword-Ray seemed completely unaffected, easily slicing through arms and then cutting through the entire black hole with undiminished momentum.

Pfft!!

Blackish-green blood spurted out, and a thin, pale green tongue fell to the ground. The Wuge screamed and retreated a hundred feet, avoiding the sharp edge of the Pure Yang Sword.

"What a pity!" Yang Lingjian sighed. He thought he could kill the Yaomo with one sword, but he didn't expect that the demon would dodge the fatal blow.

That makes sense, though. They've made it to the Top Thirty-Two, so they're not going to die so easily. Unless there's a huge difference in strength between the two sides, these geniuses all have top-notch survival skills.

"You actually have two Life-Bound Flying Swords!" Wuge exclaimed in surprise. In previous battles, Yang Lingjian had always fought with only one sword, at most using his Life-Bound Flying Sword to create Pure Yang sword light to fight. He had never revealed a second Life-Bound Flying Sword.

Wuge was certain that what had wounded him was indeed Flying Sword, not a conjured sword light.

He was quite confident in his defense; the sword light alone couldn't break through the swallowing black hole.

Hearing his opponent's surprised and uncertain voice, Yang Lingjian did not reply.

He only has one Life-Bound Flying Sword, but the Pure Yang Sword and Elixir Scripture contains a fundamental Secret Method: the Parent-Child Sword Condensation Art.

This method can differentiate into several Flying Sword sub-body units. The sub-body units are no different from normal Flying Swords, except that they have a time limit for existence.

Yang Lingjian's Sword Dao is not yet highly advanced; he can only create a sub-sword, which will dissipate after one hour.

He had originally planned to use it as his trump card in the finals, but the toad's poisonous smoke was too troublesome. Without using the Parent-Child Sword Condensation Art, it would be truly difficult to defeat it.

Chant!!

Without further ado, now that his trump card had been revealed, Yang Lingjian was prepared to defeat this toad in one fell swoop, preferably by killing it. As for whether this would affect the unity between the two realms, there was no need to worry at all.

Inside the barrier, Yang Lingjian used his mother sword to construct a Pure Yang sword light shield, and used his son sword to transform into Pure Yang Fire to frantically hunt Wuge.

After having both legs severed, the latter had no choice but to smash through the Formation barrier and emerge into the outside world.

The Heavenly Prodigy Assembly has no referees, and one cannot verbally concede defeat, but one can jump out of the Formation barrier.

Once you're outside the Formation barrier, the battle is over, and the creatures remaining inside the barrier are victorious.

Attacks themselves cannot break through the Formation barrier; only Fleshly Body can.

However, the fact that they were able to escape the Formation barrier after such a perilous life-or-death struggle suggests that the difference in strength between the two sides must not be significant.

Otherwise, the weaker side won't even have a chance to retreat and will be directly defeated by the opponent.

In the Heavenly Prodigy Assembly, as long as they don't belong to the same realm, there's a 90% chance it will be a life-or-death battle.

Although the Lu Wu Realm and the Qiongqi Realm have joined forces to deal with the Nine Phoenix Realm, this does not mean that the two realms are on the same side. When an opportunity arises to weaken the other's potential, neither will give up.

After all, until the very last moment, it's impossible to know which side will ultimately win the Interface War.

If the Lu Wu Realm gains power later, the Nine Phoenix Realm and the Qiongqi Realm will also join forces to fight against the Lu Wu Realm.

With enemies on both sides, a life-or-death struggle is inevitable. However, since there are no Sage Manifestation cultivators in the Qiongqi Realm, they have to be more cautious in their actions and dare not recklessly kill their opponents.

Given their own inherent weaknesses, they were the weakest of the three, which meant that only three of their geniuses ultimately made it into the Top Sixteen.

Of the remaining thirteen, six are from the Lu Wu Realm and seven are from the Nine Phoenix Realm.

Among these seven geniuses from the Nine Phoenix Realm, there are neither Nine-Phoenix Clan nor the Giant Spirit Tribe.

The reason is simple: these two races are born with Foundation Establishment cultivation, and their minds are not yet mature, so their elders would naturally not release them to participate in such life-or-death battles.

Therefore, in the battles of the Foundation Establishment Early Stage, the Lu Wu Realm only had one fewer spot in the Top Sixteen compared to the Nine Phoenix Realm.

The tournament continued, Yang Lingjian took the stage again. This time, his opponent was a creature from the Lu Wu Realm, a member of the Witch Tribe.

Being on the same interface, and with the Yang Household and the Witch Tribe keeping to themselves, there was naturally no life-or-death struggle between them.

After exchanging greetings, Yang Lingjian and his opponent began their magical duel.

His opponent was Gonggong Lineage of the Witch Tribe. Not only was Fleshly Body strong, but he was also adept at Water Attribute Law Technique. With every move he made, surging waves of water would sweep over him, sometimes turning into water dragons to entwine him, and sometimes into water spears to pierce him, making it very difficult for Yang Lingjian to fight.

However, after he switched to studying the Pure Yang Sword and Elixir Scripture, his strength increased greatly. In the end, he relied on the extremely powerful and yang Pure Yang Sword to break through the surging waves, achieve victory in the battle, and successfully advance to the top eight.

"I am Gong Xu of the Witch Tribe. May Daoist Friends name and which faction you belong to?" The young Wu Gong Xu Witch Tribe who called himself Gongxu scratched the back of his head, revealing his white teeth and a simple and honest smile on his dark skin.

Yang Lingjian laughed heartily in return, "My name is Yang Lingjian, a member of the Purple Moon Yang Household. If you ever travel to the Northern River Region in the future, you can come and find me at Purple Moon Mountain."

Yang Lingjian, born with a pure heart, is naturally able to distinguish between good and evil, and to sense whether someone is sincere or hypocritical.

The moment Gong Xu smiled, Yang Lingjian sensed that the boy's heart was equally pure, like a clear, lustrous gem, someone Yang Lingjian considered worthy of being a friend.

Having won the match and made a friend, Yang Lingjian couldn't help but take out the Wine Gourd from his waist and take a big gulp.

While drinking his wine, Yang Lingjian sized up the other geniuses who had also made it into the top eight.

Three from the Nine Phoenix Realm, three from the Lu Wu Realm, and two from the Qiongqi Realm.

Those two cultivators from the Qiongqi Realm actually came from the same sect. They wore black martial robes, their Qi and Blood and qi were surging and vast, exuding an aura completely different from that of Immortal Dao cultivators.

Powerful, explosive, iron-blooded, scorching... like a Volcano about to erupt at any moment.
