At that moment, matches were already underway. One competitor was a Cruising Realm cultivator from the New Universe, another was Void Swimmer from the Giant Beast Starfield, and the third was You Qi of the Burial Garden.
Back when the Starry Sky Five Sons Competition was held in the Shanhai Realm, You Qi had been a shoo-in for one of the five spots. Unfortunately, Lu Yin and Ghost Marquis had joined forces to defeat him. You Qi was incredibly strong, especially because his untouchable nature made him difficult to deal with.
Lu Yin remembered two things about him most. First was his transparent nature, like Ancestor Chen's avatar manifested by Shang Qing, along with his illusory flames. Second was his innate gift: he could even borrow the Thirteen Swords. It was simply incredible. The further he progressed, the more terrifying this gift would become. Perhaps one day, he would unleash a super move that could turn the tide.
When the Cruising Realm cultivator from the New Universe realized his opponent was You Qi, his face immediately turned pale.
You Qi whistled a desolate, mournful tune. Combined with his body wreathed in illusory flames and his appearance—which most people couldn't even see—he was as frightening as they came.
He might not have a horse, but his appearance alone was terrifying.
The long spear, battle flag, illusory flames, and whistling all came together to make him look like a walking horror movie to many people.
"I surrender!" The Cruising Realm cultivator from the New Universe conceded on the spot. He had heard of the Burial Garden.
On the other side, the Void Swimmer called Void Spirit also got spooked, though it wasn't afraid. It had worn down its opponents in every match so far. There was no way they could touch it.
