Shen Jie and Xiao Hei had encountered different opponents before.
Even when at the same cultivation level, or when there's a difference of one or two major or minor cultivation levels, Xiao Hei is perfectly capable of handling the situation, and sometimes does so with great ease.
However, Shen Jie is now only one minor realm higher than him.
Every attack unleashed made Xiao Hei feel a sense of impending death.
If it weren't for his bloodline ability, he probably wouldn't have been able to defeat Shen Jie.
However, Shen Jie may also have trump cards he hasn't had the chance to use.
However, the clash between the two was inherently fraught with uncertainty. The timing of revealing their trump cards, even by a fraction of a second or a blink of an eye, could directly impact the outcome of the battle.
Bridging the gap in cultivation levels also relies on bloodline Cultivation Method and even external aids.
Since he was able to release these abilities on his own, it must be attributed to his own strength.
So, if you lose, you lose; if you win, you win.
There are no other excuses.
Shen Jie understood this as well, his eyes fixed on Xiao Hei, filled with resentment and horror.
"How did you do that? That attack just now was definitely not something a person at the Early God Emperor Realm could unleash." After a long silence, Shen Jie asked in a deep voice.
The power unleashed by Xiao Hei's single shot shocked everyone!
Even Tan Zongzhao and Ke Dalai, the five people below, temporarily stopped their fight and watched this scene with solemn expressions.
Xiao Hei said calmly, "It's just unleashing and concentrating a single point of power."
Shen Jie nodded. "You really do have guts."
At their level, it's not difficult to unleash power and concentrate it into a single strike.
However, after unleashing this attack, the body will inevitably be in a weakened state.
Once you've lost your chance, or failed to defeat your opponent, you'll no longer be a match for them and will be completely helpless, at their mercy!
"So, you must be in a weakened state now. If I make my move now, who do you think will win?" Shen Jie countered.
Xiao Hei moved the demon halberd forward, the tip of the spear gently pressing against Shen Jie's brow. The skin between his brows broke, and blood gushed down, flowing down Shen Jie's cheeks, making him look extremely ferocious.
"You can try and see if you can outmaneuver me or if my halberd can pierce your forehead faster."
Shen Jie nodded and said, "Someone like you will come to the Chaos Realm sooner or later. Then you'll know the Seven Treasures Holy Sect's status in the Chaos Realm."
threaten.
It's a very crude way of threatening, but it's effective in 99% of cases.
But Xiao Hei was exactly that one percent...
"If you won't admit defeat, then I'll have no choice but to kill you." Xiao Hei raised an eyebrow slightly.
Upon hearing this, Shen Jie's eyes filled with murderous intent.
If before it was merely contempt, now it's a palpable killing intent!
"Since that's the case, I'll be waiting for you to come to the Chaos Realm..." Shen Jie's gaze was stern, his tone serious, and he took a deep breath before saying, "I concede..."
After saying those three words, Shen Jie deflated like a punctured balloon...
At this moment, an overwhelming force that no one present could resist struck, and Shen Jie's figure vanished from this space.
It was obviously sent back.
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other in disbelief, with even Ke Dalai and the others looking on incredulous.
Unexpectedly, Shen Jie was defeated by Xiao Hei.
Tan Zongzhao was briefly taken aback, then smiled secretly.
It seems I didn't bet on the wrong person.
However, after Shen Jie disappeared, Xiao Hei immediately sat down cross-legged, and the blood vessels that had been floating on the surface of his body gradually disappeared into his body.
Having just Bloodline Boiling to its limit, it's only natural that he's now in a period of weakness.
Tan Zongzhao stood in front of Xiao Hei and asked with a smile, "How long will it take?"
Feeling his body rapidly healing itself, Xiao Hei closed his eyes and said, "One incense stick's time."
Tan Zongzhao nodded, "Give me this incense stick, and no one can hurt you."
Thank you.
At this moment, Ke Dalai four companions also walked up to Tan Zongzhao.
"A stick of incense? You seem to be going a bit too far."
After saying that, Ke Dalai and his four companions all unleashed extremely terrifying auras!
His aura was in no way inferior to Shen Jie's!
Those who have been chosen by the Nine Nether Underworld to be able to come here are naturally not weak.
Everyone here is a top-notch genius!
Tan Zongzhao chuckled, and a whisk appeared in his hand, which he flicked slightly.
Sanqian strands of white silk fluttered wildly around Tan Zongzhao!
A dense, impenetrable white light enveloped Tan Zongzhao and Xiao Hei!
"Go ahead and give it a try."
Ke Dalai snorted coldly, gripped his broadsword, and stomped his foot on the ground, unleashing a flash of sword light! The Saber Dao Law swept across this yellow earth!
The ground began to crack, and huge fissures appeared all around Ke Dalai!
Immediately, he slashed at Tan Zongzhao his sword!
The massive blade of light transformed into a slash, tearing through space and cleaving the ground, heading straight for Tan Zongzhao!
The other four also showed no mercy, launching a full-scale attack on Tan Zongzhao!
Once Xiao Hei recovers...
That would be troublesome.
We need to finish this quickly while the opponent is still alone to have any hope!
Tan Zongzhao's smile faded, his expression turned serious, and he flicked out his whisk, softly saying, " Demon Breaking True Lord, manifest."
At this moment, the Sanqian whisks frantically intertwined and condensed into a human figure!
A figure wielding a nine-story pagoda pressed down on the five people's attack!
A white light flashed, and the pagoda swelled with the wind!
The five attacks slammed into the pagoda in an instant!
Immediately, cracks appeared on the pagoda! The gaps transformed into Sanqian white threads from a whisk, which then filled the gaps on the pagoda, mending them!
This process is repeated.
The five people's attacks were completely neutralized by the entanglement of white silk!
Ke Dalai, carrying his broadsword, said solemnly, " The Elder Demon Breaking of the Chaotic Spirit Academy's Fly Whisk Holy Manifestation Art Dust-Sweeping Blade is indeed well-deserved of its reputation."
Elder Demon Breaking is the Grand Elder of the Chaotic Spirit Academy.
"No wonder that Elder Demon Breaking, who never accepts disciples, made an exception and took you as his last disciple. He truly lives up to his reputation."
Tan Zongzhao lightly. "Just luck."
"However... we'll see how long your Fly Whisk Holy Manifestation Art can last."
A dazzling blade light began to condense on the broadsword in Ke Dalai's hand, and the boundless Saber Dao Law erupted from Ke Dalai's body!
The surrounding space was completely torn apart!
"Gentlemen, go all out!" Ke Dalai laughed loudly. "If this attack still doesn't work, then you might as well admit defeat."
This attack couldn't even break through Tan Zongzhao's defenses, so it was inevitable that Xiao Hei would recover.
Once Xiao Hei recovers and joins forces with Tan Zongzhao, Tan Zongzhao will have no scruples and will attack with all his might; they will be no match for him.
Even if I could defeat Xiao Hei and become the second person standing here.
Even in the fifth round of one-on-one combat, he would definitely not be a match for Tan Zongzhao.
Rather than that, it's better to gamble all their strength on this one strike. Tan Zongzhao loses, they will still have hope of passing the test!
