A terrifying beam of light, carrying the power of annihilation, shot straight toward Ouyang Wu's location.
The entire Immortal Spirit Realm trembled at the sudden appearance of that pillar of light, let alone the target of its attack.
The space around the Primordial Arena was distorted to varying degrees. For a moment, the cultivators outside the Primordial Arena felt as if Mount Tai was pressing down on them, and they were filled with fear, wishing they could use all their strength to escape from here.
However, the oppressive force was simply too terrifying, rendering countless cultivators unable to move. At this point, trying to escape would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.
In the chaos, countless cultivators' gazes converged on the disheveled youth. Such a terrifying attack was clearly aimed at him; how would he react?
To the surprise of all the cultivators, Ouyang Wu merely glanced at Xu Ziyue with a pale face, his eyes filled with an indescribable apology.
However, Xu Ziyue did not look at him. Facing the pillar of light, her robes fluttered even without wind.
As the pillar of light drew ever closer to the Primordial Arena, just as it was about to reach within a hundred miles of the Primordial Arena, a scene that astonished all the cultivators occurred.
The attack, which had just been so vast and seemingly capable of obliterating heaven and earth, vanished abruptly.
Good, the attack has completely dissipated!
The sky instantly returned to its original color, as if everything had been an illusion!
"Cough cough, thank you, young lady!" Ouyang Wu spoke weakly, his face showing a hint of admiration and gratitude.
However, Xu Ziyue did not answer him, her gaze remaining fixed on the distant void.
"During the Primordial Investiture of the Gods Arena Tournament, all participants are only responsible for the competition; they need not worry about anything else."
"If anyone dares to interfere with the match again, don't blame me for being impolite."
Such a calm voice caused the group of cultivators to gasp in astonishment.
The old woman standing next to the girl in white also turned her gaze to Xu Ziyue.
Three figures appeared in the void at some unknown time, each emanating terrifying spiritual energy fluctuations.
Perhaps because they had traveled at high speed, the three of them did not suppress their terrifying aura, so the entire Immortal Spirit Realm could sense their presence.
" Immortal Emperor Realm expert!" The old woman's voice trembled slightly, though she was more concerned about her young mistress's safety.
"I really don't know what happened today. How could such an unknown little sect gather so many powerful experts?"
"Even this small Immortal Spirit Realm can alarm three Immortal Emperor from the Heavenly Emperor Dao Sect to take action simultaneously."
The old woman muttered to herself, her somewhat cloudy eyes darting around as if afraid something unusual might suddenly happen.
However, the woman in white glanced at Xu Ziyue in the distance and smiled slightly.
"This young girl's strength is truly extraordinary; she was able to easily deflect such an attack," the woman in white exclaimed in admiration. "With such a powerful figure here, there shouldn't be any problems."
"Mother-in-law, we really made the right decision to come today!"
Meanwhile, the three figures in the sky also focused their gazes on Xu Ziyue, their eyes filled with inquiry.
"Elder, what should we do now?"
One of the cultivators spoke up, asking the man standing in the middle of the three.
The man in the middle also looked solemn. He couldn't believe that his full-force attack had been so easily neutralized by a seemingly frail girl. This girl's strength was truly unfathomable!
"Let's observe the situation first and avoid conflict with them for now." The Grand Elder finally made his decision. After examining the girl for a moment, he was surprised to find that even he couldn't see through the true strength of the girl in purple. He immediately decided to stop attacking.
" Ouyang Wu is right under our noses. As long as we don't let them escape, we're fine."
"I think this Primordial Hall is just setting up a tournament. We can make our move after their competition is over. There's no need to offend them," said one of the people on the left.
He had heard a little about the Primordial Hall before, but he had never paid it any mind. He didn't expect that although the other party came from an obscure little place, his strength was quite impressive.
The three exchanged glances, then concealed their auras, sat cross-legged in the void, and closed their eyes to rest.
However, their mental energy remained focused on Ouyang Wu's situation, ready to intervene at any moment.
Xu Ziyue sized up the three of them for a moment. Seeing that they stayed obediently in place and had no intention of continuing to fight, she withdrew her gaze, raised her hand, and a faint light shone on the Primordial Arena.
All 119 contestants disappeared simultaneously, and soon paired up and appeared in a void.
As for the scene in the void, it was directly suspended above the Primordial Arena. Anyone interested in the battle in that space could concentrate and feel as if they were there.
Xu Ziyue didn't go into the details of the rules after that, but the implications behind them were self-evident.
The cultivators exchanged pleasantries for a while, and before long, the battle began.
Having reached their level of mastery, there was naturally no need for excessive pleasantries during the arena matches.
"Boom..."
"Boom..."
"Boom..."
The sounds of sixty battles rang out simultaneously, making the Primordial Arena incredibly lively.
However, at this moment, most of the cultivators' attention was focused on the disheveled young man, Ouyang Wu.
The space where Ouyang Wu was located was on the surface of a lake. He was still holding an infant in his arms, and he looked weak and bloodless. His aura was still that of the Immortal Marquis Realm, but he completely suppressed the Immortal King Realm expert opposite him.
Although Ouyang Wu's opponent was a powerful cultivator at the Early Immortal King Realm, such combat strength still surprised the group of cultivators.
The opponent was a patriarch-level figure from the Astronomy Sect. Now that he was being suppressed by a cultivator at the Immortal Marquis Realm, he naturally felt humiliated. He had already pushed his cultivation to its limit, but he still couldn't do anything to Ouyang Wu.
"This... to possess such strength even while severely injured, if this person were at their peak, wouldn't they be able to rival a Middle Immortal King Realm?"
"I think we might be able to fight directly against the Late Immortal King Realm!"
"This is terrifying! What kind of cultivation technique could possibly achieve this?!"
Inside the Primordial Space, Lin Yu was also watching the battle on Ouyang Wu's side.
To be honest, Ouyang Wu's combat ability also exceeded Lin Yu's expectations!
