Domain Expansion
Chen Mobai had no idea that he had been recognized as an unparalleled sword genius by the entire Divine Wood Sect simply because he had used his Foundation Establishment level Liquid Spiritual Power to unleash the strongest power of the Divine Wood Sword.
Right now, he only has one thing on his mind.
Defeat this opponent in front of me and avenge last year's crushing defeat.
"I don't know what your strength is, but if you meet me, you can only lose."
Before Chen Mobai could speak, Mu Yuan spoke first, and after he finished speaking, he directly activated a cyan Talisman.
Heavenly Wood Talisman! However, unlike Ding Ying, when he activated this Talisman, there was also a bluish-gray seed accompanying it.
The seed landed and instantly burst forth from the ground, transforming in the blink of an eye into a three-meter-tall tree, blooming like morning clouds.
Because Chen Mobai had only exchanged for the cultivation method of the Longevity Sutra and not the corresponding spells, he did not know that the Heavenly Wood Talisman was the most powerful "Heavenly Wood Divine Light Array" of the Longevity Sutra, combined with the Talisman, which was also the most complete and powerful spell system of the Divine Wood Sect.
On Green Light Island, Chen Mobai had already witnessed the power of the "Heavenly Wood Divine Light Array". It integrates the functions of nourishing Spirit Vein, gathering spiritual energy, attacking with Heavenly Wood Divine Light, and defending with Spirit Leaf Light Shield, making it the most versatile Array Formation with no blind spots.
The highest level of Longevity Sutra is to use one's body as a battle formation.
The place where it is located is a "Heavenly Wood Divine Light Array", which covers the sky and the earth with the Heavenly Wood Divine Light, sweeping across the six directions and Eight Wastelands.
However, cultivators at the Qi Refining stage certainly cannot do this.
Therefore, before the Divine Wood lineage separated from the Five Elements Sect, the Primordial Ancestor developed the "Heavenly Wood Talisman" to assist Qi Cultivation Disciple in using the "Heavenly Wood Divine Light Array".
The Heavenly Wood Talisman seals a wood spirit energy, which can cause the prepared "tree seed" to grow instantly, transforming it into the spiritual tree array eye needed for the "Heavenly Wood Divine Light Array".
The quality of the Heavenly Wood Talisman varies, but their power mainly depends on the grade of the tree species.
Although Ding Ying possessed Second Grade Heavenly Wood Talisman, the tree seed was only at the peak of the first tier. It was naturally incredibly powerful against those at the Qi Refining level, but against true Second Grade sword energy, it could only end up with the tree broken and its leaves shattered.
However, the aura of the Mu Yuan tree is different. After it blooms, the spiritual tree is lush and green, vaguely resembling the spiritual tree that Chen Mobai guarded on Green Light Island.
The Second Grade Azure Sun Spirit Tree! Since Mu Yuan had already used this move during his battle with Yuan Chiye, Chen Mobai had already found out about it.
Although he was very confident in his Half-Step Foundation Establishment realm, confidence was not arrogance. When he encountered something he didn't understand, he would ask questions.
As a second-generation immortal, Xi Jinghuo also cultivates the Two Aspects Technique and is very knowledgeable about the Longevity Sutra.
When Chen Mobai asked, he told him everything about the Heavenly Wood Talisman and the tree species.
Cultivators outside the Eastern Wasteland refer to this move of the Divine Wood Sect as "Domain Expansion".
Once the "Heavenly Wood Divine Light Array" is deployed on a suitable Spirit Vein, even the most powerful Sword Cultivator would not dare to engage in direct combat with the cultivators of the Divine Wood Sect.
If it weren't for the fact that once this move is activated, one cannot move, the Divine Wood Sect would have already dominated the Eastern Wasteland.
However, this weakness is perfectly compensated for in a large-scale competition like the arena, where the scope is limited.
It was precisely by relying on this move that Mu Yuan defeated Yuan Chiye.
"I hope you can last ten moves this time."
Upon hearing Mu Yuan's words, Chen Mobai recalled his crushing defeat last year, when he was utterly powerless to retaliate.
"Junior brother, this is exactly what I wanted to tell you."
But this time, Chen Mobai's confidence was completely different.
With only the Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer suppressed by the Half-Step Foundation Establishment realm, how could a mere Qi Refining cultivator possibly defy the heavens?
Just then, Mu Yuan snorted and plucked two leaves from the Azure Sun Spirit Tree beside him.
With a flick of his finger, a layer of misty sword energy adhered to the leaves, like two streaks of Flowing Light, shooting towards Chen Mobai's eyes with a sharp whistling sound.
Mu Yuan's skill in swordsmanship is also quite good. His ability to Pluck Leaf Throw Flower and Refine Sword into Qi is a testament to his exceptional talent.
Upon seeing his move, the Divine Wood Sect disciples watching from below the arena couldn't help but gasp in surprise.
However, Zhou Wangshen and the others in the restaurant, who knew Chen Mobai's background, couldn't help but sneer.
In their eyes, Mu Yuan was like someone trying to teach a fish to swim, making a fool of himself in front of a peerless genius in swordsmanship.
However, this Junior Brother Chen didn't seem to want to discourage Mu Yuan too much, so he didn't use the Sword Qi Like a Rainbow realm at the beginning, but instead used a Crimson Flame Sword Talisman.
Two fiery red sword energies burst forth, precisely clashing with Mu Yuan's sword aura, erupting into two large bursts of sparks in mid-air.
"It's actually the Crimson Flame Two Sword Talisman!"
The audience was astonished to see two crimson sword energies burst forth from a Talisman. Such a low-cost Talisman was almost never sold on the market.
Could he have made it himself?!
Just as this thought flashed through the minds of Zhou Wangshen and the others, Chen Mobai took out eight Crimson Flame Sword Talisman with both hands.
A burst of crimson sword energy erupted, like interwoven streams of Flowing Light, covering the Mu Yuan and the Second Grade Azure Sun Spirit Tree.
A green leaf fell and landed right in Mu Yuan's palm. His powerful Longevity Spiritual Power surged out, and he activated the "Spirit Leaf Technique" in an instant.
A massive, leaf-shaped shield of light covered him and the entire spirit tree, blocking the crisscrossing net of Crimson Flame Sword Qi.
"My spiritual energy is being used up too much; I need to finish this quickly."
After Mu Yuan blocked Chen Mobai's barrage of Talisman, she sensed that she only had about 80% of her spiritual power left in her body and felt that she couldn't get into her opponent's rhythm.
His face radiated Emerald Spirit Light. He reached out and patted the Azure Sun Spirit Tree beside him. Then, strands of azure light were drawn from the spirit tree and gathered in his palm into a ball of clear, emerald-green spiritual light.
It was the simplified version of the Heavenly Wood Divine Light that Ding Ying had used before, the Heavenly Wood Spiritual Light! At this moment, Chen Mobai took out a Crimson Flame Sword Talisman drawn on a golden Mu Yuan Bamboo Leaf. As Mu Yuan's expression changed slightly, a wisp of purple fire sword energy was generated, like a line of fire, and shot to his brow in an instant.
It's actually the Crimson Flame Three Sword Talisman!
This is equivalent to the power of Second Grade level. Left with no other choice, Mu Yuan could only take out a jade-green spirit pearl from his storage bag.
Chen Mobai recognized it as Second Grade Jade Spirit Pearl. As long as spiritual power was injected into it, it could transform into a layer of incredibly defensive light shield.
When fighting against Yuan Chiye, Mu Yuan had already revealed all his trump cards.
Chen Mobai was waiting for this. He wanted to break all of Mu Yuan's ultimate moves and magical treasures, and let him experience the most complete defeat!
As Mu Yuan exhaled a mouthful of pure Longevity Spiritual Power, transforming the Jade Spirit Pearl into a light screen to block the astonishing Purple Fire Sword Qi, Chen Mobai also opened his storage bag.
A pure blue flying sword leaped out, like a Spirit Fish.
"He's finally getting serious!"
Seeing Chen Mobai finally draw his sword, Zhou Wangshen and the others, who knew his "background", couldn't help but sigh for Mu Yuan.
They knew that their Sect Leader brother's journey in the Grand Competition had come to an end.
