On the competition stage, the real dragon was flying, and the sword energy was flying, covering the entire competition stage, scattering countless sword talismans, and the immortal power was scattered and turned into nothing.
The huge sound shook everyone's ears, and they could only see the brilliant sword light. Only the disciples of the Earth Fairy Realm could see Lu Chen and Li Zhen clearly.
The gray space was constantly twisting and overlapping, causing Li Zhen, who transformed into a dragon-shaped sword energy, to attack Lu Chen again and again without causing any substantial damage.
Of course, Lu Chen still had a bitter look on his face, and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth. This was also thanks to his use of the Five Elements Dharma Body to strengthen his body, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
But Li Zhen was still angry and roared: "Lu Chen, you have the ability to remove the origin of space, and you can take my sword with dignity."
"Li Zhen, my ability to cultivate the origin of space is my own. Why do you talk so much nonsense?" Lu Chen laughed and said, 'It seems that I think highly of you.'
"hateful!"
Li Zhen's face turned purple with anger and he felt like his lungs were about to explode.
The dragon-shaped secret sword is a fourth-grade immortal method. With his cultivation level, he has to bear a huge load and consume even more immortal power. If this continues, he may be defeated without Lu Chen taking action.
Lu Chen saw through this, so he used the source of space and the source of dryness to weaken the power of his sword.
This way he has a chance to win!
"Li Zhen, welcome failure!"
Lu Chen shook his head, looked directly at Li Zhen like a sword, and rushed forward. The source of space and the source of dryness swept on both sides, lingering around Li Zhen.
His strength was immediately greatly reduced, and the power of the dragon-shaped secret sword continued to decline.
After a while, blood continued to flow from the corners of his mouth, and sword marks appeared on his chest and arms.
"Now!"
Lu Chen's eyes lit up, he seized this rare opportunity, and rushed forward boldly, showing his fearlessness and striking at Li Zhen.
"You can't even think of defeating me."
Li Zhen roared fiercely, like a crazy beast, with blood constantly spilling from his mouth. Regardless of the sword marks on his body, he fought fiercely with Lu Chen.
However, he was affected by the origin of space and the origin of dryness, and his own strength was greatly weakened. He could only show a temporary majesty, but it was difficult to last.
Lu Chen knew this, but he did not waste time. He raised his own strength to the extreme and activated various sources of power to completely suppress him.
Bang bang bang!
Li Zhen's body was shaken violently, a large mouthful of blood spurted out, and he let out a tragic cry of pain.
hiss!
When everyone saw this, without exception, they all took a deep breath.
Li Xiaobai and others were stunned.
At this moment, they felt that Lu Chen was too scary.
Zhao Yan and Zhou Wulong looked extremely ugly.
Zi Chongxiao and the others were stunned, with joy on their faces.
Deacon Lin and the other ten looked at Lu Chen in astonishment.
"Li Zhen, that's it!"
Lu Chen roared, and his body of a hundred feet hit Li Zhen. His body made a banging sound, cracks appeared, and blood spattered everywhere.
The sword talismans condensed on his body were shattered one by one, and all kinds of visions and rays of light were reduced to nothing.
"boom!"
Li Zhen fell from mid-air and crashed into the competition stage.
Bang——
He smashed a huge hole into the competition platform.
The light of the formation intertwined and made a hissing sound, which scared Deacon Lin and hurriedly poured in his immortal power to stabilize the formation and strengthen the competition platform.
When everyone saw this scene, they all looked at each other in shock.
Li Zhen actually lost.
How is this possible?
They all stared at Lu Chen in shock.
Li Xiaobai and others were silent for a while.
Zhao Yan and Zhou Wulong looked dull.
Zi Chongxiao and the other three cheered at this moment, and the cheers were particularly loud in the deathly silence everywhere.
This is the cry of victory!
"call!"
Lu Chen slowly fell from mid-air, took a deep breath, and held back a mouthful of blood into his body. Even so, his face was still extremely pale.
However, he is much better than the seriously injured Li Zhen.
"I would actually lose to you?"
Li Zhen was lying in the huge pit, with blood dripping all over his body. No part of him was intact, but his eyes were extremely sharp, staring at Lu Chen, showing his unwillingness. After saying this, he tilted his neck and fainted.
Dead in the past.
"Lu Chen wins this battle!"
Deacon Lin announced immediately.
Wow——
A burst of noise immediately swept over the No. 9 competition stage, especially those disciples in the Divine Realm and Human Immortal Realm, who were extremely excited and excited, as if they regarded Lu Chen as their idol.
Because since the Xuantian Sword Sect was founded, he is the only one who has entered the top ten of the competition with his cultivation in the Human Immortal Realm.
"Congratulations to Senior Brother Lu."
"Congratulations to Senior Brother Lu."
The next moment, the entire audience was filled with congratulations. Even some of the Earthly Immortal Realm disciples who looked down on Lu Chen before did not dare to call Lu Chen by his name anymore.
Because Chase Lu is better than them!
Li Xiaobai and others fell silent. They never expected that such a strong enemy would appear in this outer sect competition.
Of course, they would not admit defeat. After all, they were all among the top ten disciples, and except for Qian Yu, the other eight were ranked above Li Zhen.
Especially Li Xiaobai, who is recognized as the number one person in the outer sect and has the strength to fight against the Celestial Immortal monks, and he doesn't think he will lose to Lu Chen.
It's just that he couldn't imagine that Lu Chen would grow up so fast.
Thinking back to decades ago, when Lu Chen entered the sect, he only had the cultivation level of the God Emperor.
This kind of cultivation speed puts even Li Xiaobai to shame.
If Lu Chen was given another sixty years, he didn't know how high his cultivation level would be, the Heavenly Immortal Realm, or the Golden Immortal Realm?
Li Xiaobai couldn't imagine it.
Zhao Yan and Zhou Wulong fell into silence. Looking back now, they both regretted why they provoked Lu Chen.
Because even with their strength, they are not sure of dealing with Chase Lu. Unfortunately, there is no way back.
"Thank you all."
On the competition stage, Lu Chen took in the expressions of most people, especially Zhao Yan and Zhou Wulong, but he just smiled indifferently.
Because strictly speaking, the conflicts between Zhao Yan and Zhou Wulong and him were just minor conflicts, not life-and-death hatred. If they stopped looking for trouble, it wouldn't matter if they let them go.
Of course, if they insist on dealing with him, Chase Lu will not show mercy.
After coming down from the competition stage, Lu Chen came to Qi Yuanzhong and the others.
Lu Chen saw all their expressions and movements just now, and he was deeply moved, feeling happy to have such three friends.
"Brother Lu, good job." Qi Yuanzhong said in an exaggerated tone.
"You gave us a big surprise." Yuan Hongshuang said softly. For the first time, she felt ashamed when facing Lu Chen.
"Brother Lu, we are proud of you." Zi Chongxiao said with a smile.
"Thank you." Lu Chen said gratefully.
Zi Chongxiao and the three of them looked at each other and smiled.
"quiet!"
At this moment, Deacon Lin's voice sounded from the sky.
He stood together with the nine deacons Fang, and said expressionlessly: "This outer sect competition has been going on so far, and the top ten disciples have been selected. They are Li Xiaobai, Zhao Yan, Liu Fang, and Qian San.
, Yu Hong, Huo Dongshan, Zhou Wulong, Qi He, Lu Chen, Qian Yu."
Ninety percent of the ten disciples remained unchanged. The only change was that Li Zhen was replaced by Lu Chen.
Everyone cheered.
Deacon Lin signaled them to quiet down, and then continued: "Next, there will be a ranking competition for the top ten, so you should prepare in advance."
"yes!"
Li Xiaobai and the other nine responded one after another.
"Deacon Lin, this disciple has something to say."
At this moment, Lu Chen walked out injured.
"Lu Chen, what do you want to say?" Deacon Lin asked.
"Disciple wants to give up the next game." Lu Chen said.
Wow——
As soon as Lu Chen said these words, and before Butler Lin responded, everyone was in an uproar because they did not expect that Lu Chen would give up the next competition.
"He actually gave up? Why?"
"In fact, this is a wise move. His own strength is only one step ahead of Li Zhen. What's more, he has been injured. If he continues to participate in the competition, it is impossible to get a higher ranking."
"Retired after success, this Lu Chen is extraordinary!"
Li Xiaobai and others were surprised. They looked at each other and roughly understood the meaning of Lu Chen's move.
"You know what I mean."
Zhao Yan and Zhou Wulong looked at Lu Chen, both with the same thought.
Qi Sun and others looked at Lu Chen with shocked expressions, because it would be extremely difficult for them to make this decision.
Because he has defeated Li Zhen, if he continues to participate in the competition, he may be able to enter the top five and receive more rewards.
"Brother Lu, it's okay if you give up."
Zi Chongxiao and the other three looked at each other, and neither of them objected. Instead, they agreed with Lu Chen's move.
"Okay, after discussion with several deacons, I decided to agree to your request, but your ranking will be slightly changed, because if you voluntarily abstain, it means that you have lost to the nine Li Xiaobai people, and your ranking will become tenth.
"Do you have any opinion on this?" Deacon Lin asked.
"Disciple has no objection." Lu Chen replied.
"Okay, you don't need to participate in the next top ten ranking competition. This is your certificate to get the tenth place in this year's outer sect competition. You can exchange this for various rewards." Deacon Lin nodded and threw
Give Lu Chen a jade plaque.
"Thank you, Deacon Lin."
Lu Chen caught the jade token, marked it with a cross, put it away, and handed it over in thanks.
Giving up and continuing to participate in the competition was not an impulse, but the result of careful consideration.
First, he fought with Li Zhen, and although Li Zhen was seriously injured, he also suffered a lot of damage. Continuing to participate in the competition was just a failure;
Secondly, in the battle with Li Zhen, he had tried his best, but only narrowly defeated him. The eight Li Xiaobais above Li Zhen were even more terrifying. It was much more difficult to defeat them than to defeat Li Zhen;
Especially Li Xiaobai, Zhao Yan, and Liu Fang. Facing them, there is no hope, so it is better to give up.
Although the tenth place is ranked last, it is no different from the seventh, eighth, or ninth place. The rewards are the same. What else is Lu Chen dissatisfied with?
He did not watch the next competition and went directly back to the outer gate to heal his injuries.
The next day, the outer sect competition ended, ranking first to tenth were Li Xiaobai, Liu Fang, Zhao Yan, Qian San, Yu Hong, Huo Dongshan, Zhou Wulong, Qi He, Qian Yu, and Lu Chen.
Zhao Yan's strength was originally second only to Li Xiaobai, but because he encountered Li Xiaobai in advance, his energy was damaged, resulting in his final defeat to Liu Fang.
Even if Zhao Yan is unwilling, it will not help.
Then, he found Sun Cheng and asked for a healing elixir.
But Sun Cheng was sitting on the stone bench blankly.
"Sun Cheng, what's wrong with you?" Zhao Yan asked with a frown.
"Is it true that Lu Chen defeated Li Zhen?" Sun Cheng asked with difficulty.
"Yes." Zhao Yan said.
"How is this possible? How is this possible?" Sun Cheng trembled for a moment, and the next moment he started roaring hysterically.
He couldn't accept this result, and he collapsed on the ground. Fear overwhelmed him like a tide, and his face became as pale as paper.
"Sun Cheng, are you afraid that he will retaliate against you?" Zhao Yan said.
"He will definitely take revenge on me, he will definitely take revenge on me." Sun Cheng shouted tremblingly, 'What should I do? What do you think I should do?'
"If you are really afraid that he will retaliate against you, then go apologize to him and swear not to do anything wrong with him." Zhao Yan said.
"No, you want me to apologize to him, unless I die." Sun Cheng shouted hoarsely. He walked back and forth in the stone house a few times, suddenly stopped, looked at Zhao Yan, and said, "Kill him, I will
Gonna kill him.'
"Are you crazy?" Zhao Yan frowned for a moment, then suddenly fell silent, looked at Sun Cheng, and said coldly, 'Sun Cheng, maybe you are right, we should kill him.'
