Final Challenge

After Luo Jun's victory, it was Old Yuan's turn to take the stage again in the next round.

As for the opposing side, they dispatched their strongest Combat Power, Zhuge Chi.

One was a true Peak, the other was once the Number One Under Ascension; their battle was of the highest caliber.

Facing Zhuge Chi, Old Yuan dared not be careless at all. He immediately unleashed his powerful Eight Trigrams Finger Tiger, with various abilities appearing one after another, covering the entire arena.

On the other side, Zhuge Chi, who had been brainwashed, didn't know what it meant to hold back and used all his strength right away, making it difficult to distinguish between the illusions on the field!

One side possessed the multi-elemental abilities of Bagua, while the other wielded unpredictable illusions. The small arena was simply insufficient, crammed full of dazzling colors, even revealing the shape of the originally transparent barrier. As for the figures of the two combatants within it, they had been completely submerged and were no longer visible.

After several minutes of fierce fighting, all the illusions and abilities finally dissipated, leaving only Old Yuan standing on the stage, with the dead Zhuge Chi lying in front of him.

Judging from the huge wound on his chest, he must have been killed by a punch that pierced through his chest by Old Yuan.

The more basic the cultivation of Yuan Qi, the harder it is to restrict. Not to mention God Ruins, even the Yuan Cultivation Society can create a sealing barrier for the Hundred Treasure Box and Yuan Qi. However, there are almost no means to restrict the physical body Root Bone tempered in the Body Refinement Realm Strengthening Realm. To date, Luo Jun has only experienced it once, in the Outstanding Trial Arena.

Having regained his senses, Zhuge Chi looked around in a daze. "Old Yuan, Ophelia, Ottos, Night... We turned the tide of the battle? How did we do it?"

Those with experience, like Old Yuan, were fine, but Ottos, Jin Fei, Rolf... even Zhuge Chi was surprised by the strength of the restriction. Under this restriction, even at their Peak, they could only unleash one or two tenths of their strength.

"Don't let your guard down," said Old Yuan and the others. "The real challenge is yet to come!"

His memory stopped at the moment he was defeated by Old Yuan, which was also the beginning of the collapse of the sober side. He knew nothing about what happened afterward.

"This is... my weapon has been forcibly retrieved... and I can't open the Hundred Treasure Box either!"

If a Cultivators has already reached the pinnacle of the Heart Refining Realm, but due to bad luck, their Foundation Strengthening or Qi Cultivation has not reached its full potential, then if they successfully break through, they are very likely to reach the Peak Realm in one fell swoop.

"He is denouncing us invaders while praying to the Great God Karruth, asking for greater power!" Ophelia translated, then suddenly frowned. "But his wording is different from that of a typical priest; he doesn't seem to be a mage, but rather a ruler..."

However, judging from others' reactions, their vital energy circulation was restricted by about 80-90%. Comparing this to his own situation, Luo Jun felt that his vital energy circulation efficiency had only decreased by about half. Was it because his vital energy was large enough? Or was it because his body, which had been conditioned by the God Technique, had a stronger resistance to restriction? Or perhaps it was a combination of both...

Then, accompanied by an ancient chant, a mummy wearing a crown and a magnificent robe slowly emerged from the coffin.

"Ye defeated Old Yuan?" Zhuge Chi looked at Luo Jun in shock. In his last battle while fully conscious, he had truly experienced Old Yuan's power. Although Elder Yuan was the Weakest Peak, he should still be significantly stronger than ordinary cultivators in the Heart Refining Realm. An enemy that even he couldn't handle was actually defeated by Ye...

Zhuge Chi also regained consciousness, so things became simple. Old Yuan, Luo Jun, and Zhuge Chi were all far superior to the others, and the three of them took turns playing, defeating the rest one by one.

"Just lucky," Luo Jun said casually.

"What is he saying?" Most of the people present did not understand the Ancient Parami Language and were completely confused.

"You have only defeated the cultists who submitted to Karruth, but you have not yet achieved true victory. The one who will appear next is the true representative of the Great God Karruth!"

Only Luo Jun disagreed.

"I was the first to regain consciousness." Old Yuan pointed to Luo Jun beside him. "When I woke up, this was the only kid by my side. The others were all won back by us." As he said this, the Old Man's face revealed a sense of pride.

Luo Jun waved his hand. "It was nothing..."

Before he could finish speaking, a loud bang was heard, and the coffin lid flew off horizontally, heading straight for Mu Ning in the middle. At this moment, Luo Jun rushed over and kicked the heavy coffin lid to pieces.

"Not yet..." Zhuge Chi examined him carefully, frowned, and shook his head. "But you are indeed different from before. You haven't reached your Peak Realm, yet you were able to defeat Old Yuan. What exactly is your ability?"

"You really succeeded in breaking through?" Zhuge Chi knew that Luo Jun had initiated the breakthrough at the last minute. "And now, are you at your Peak?"

His Master's words were clearly meant to elevate him, so he took the opportunity to downplay it and casually raised his own status.

As it spoke, it slammed its spear into the ground, causing the entire arena to sink until it was level with the ground. At the same time, the barrier surrounding the arena suddenly expanded, overlapping with the inner wall of the pyramid and enveloping everyone present.

The two figures vanished, reappearing together below the stage.

As they were pondering, the sound of a mechanism operating came from the center of the arena. The floor tiles split open in the middle, and a huge, vertical coffin slowly rose up.

"My vital energy is also restricted, the Protective Qi Strength is significantly reduced, and the flow of vital energy within my body is also obstructed..."

This barrier is ingenious. It doesn't restrict the amount of Qi, but rather the efficiency of its circulation... No matter how weak Cultivators, their Qi will not be sealed off within this barrier, but the strength of their Qi and the Protective Qi Strength are greatly reduced.

At the same time, a chilling aura of death emanated from the coffin, causing the temperature inside the entire pyramid to drop to freezing point.

As the Last One Flora at Luo Jun's feet, everyone regained their senses.

"It's coming!" Mu Ning warned, "I sense an extremely powerful surge of energy..."

"Unwilling to reveal it..." Zhuge Chi sighed, cupping his hands in thanks. "Regardless, thanks to you, we were saved..."

As Old Yuan and his group gradually regained consciousness, others also learned of the existence of the final mummy and were mentally prepared in advance.

Sure enough, as the arena match officially ended, the statue of Arubian walked to the center of the arena and raised its spear.

This restriction, while strong, Great Shaman in comparison to the Outstanding Trial Arena. Luo Jun could feel his Inner Breath flow being obstructed, but it wasn't sealed off, and his Acquired Potential remained completely unaffected.

"You should be able to tell," Luo Jun said calmly, looking at Zhuge Chi.

"That's right..." Old Yuan added from the side, "His title and tone suggest he was an emperor of Ancient Parami ..."

"If I'm not mistaken, he is the last ruler of Amgilla... Emperor Menehses!"
