Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty Five Missing the Good Show
Facing Shangguan Xin's thunderous attack, Zhao Jian's expression did not change at all. He waved one hand and a purple ax appeared in his hand. It was the spiritual weapon he had used in the secret realm.
.
He chanted a spell in his mouth, waved his hand, and suddenly threw the purple ax directly.
The purple ax emits purple light all over its body, and a scorching flame rises into the sky, like a purple sun.
Zhao Jian waved his hand and fired a spell.
The purple sun flashed and suddenly turned into the shadow of a giant purple dragon, twenty to thirty feet in size, rushing towards the two oncoming black hurricanes.
Shangguan Xin frowned slightly when he saw the menacing appearance of the purple dragon's shadow. He moved his hands and two black hurricanes merged into one, more than doubling in size.
"Rumble" an earth-shattering loud noise resounded high in the sky!
The purple dragon phantom collided with the black hurricane, and then became entangled together like living creatures. In the fierce collision of purple and black lights, the entire arena and the shrouded cyan light curtain suddenly shook.
Seeing this, Shangguan Xin's eyes widened with anger, and he used his magic skills with both hands. The rotation speed of the black hurricane suddenly increased, trying to smash the purple dragon's shadow into pieces, and there was a loud sound like metal cutting.
But the next moment, the phantom of the purple dragon also radiated purple light, and its body rushed forward menacingly.
The roars sounded one after another!
After a stalemate for two or three breaths, the purple dragon phantom and the black hurricane suddenly dissipated at the same time, turning into the bodies of the axe and the double hammer, each flying back and landing in the hands of Zhao Jian and Shangguan Xin.
Shangguan Xin's expression froze. His charged attack actually ended up on a draw with a new disciple. This was something he couldn't accept.
The black light radiated from his body, and a huge coercion from the early stage of the Heavenly Throne spread out without reservation. The momentum was so great that he was only one step away from the middle stage of the Heavenly Throne.
People near the ring looked at Shangguan Xin on the ring with horrified expressions, and the scene was filled with solemnity.
"The top nine are actually only one step away from the middle stage of heaven!" Shi Mu was extremely shocked at this moment. He turned his eyes and looked towards the other side of the arena in the direction of Long Zhanye.
On the ring, Zhao Jian held a purple ax and looked at Shangguan Xin who was wrapped in black light in front of him. His face remained as calm as before, and his eyes remained calm as before.
Shangguan Xin looked at Zhao Jian and his eyes narrowed. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, which merged into the two hammers. At the same time, he recited a spell, and the two hammers in his hands emitted red and black light. In a flash, they actually merged into one.
Dazzling red and black light emitted from the sledgehammer, and the pressure it emitted was more than twice as powerful as before.
"go!"
Shangguan Xin shouted, and the black and red sledgehammer immediately hit Zhao Jian on the head.
The sound of thunder and explosions erupted from the sledgehammer, and the power was extremely frightening, and the nearby void also trembled violently.
Zhao Jian's face condensed, he muttered something, and his sleeves suddenly trembled.
The purple light of the purple ax lights up again, and it spins out of the hand, transforming into the shadow of a purple dragon, with two giant claws trying to resist the red and black sledgehammer.
A loud noise resounded throughout the world!
The moment the purple dragon's phantom claws touched the black and red sledgehammer, they were shattered by an invisible force and turned into a purple axe again. It rolled and flew downwards. The light was dim, and it was obvious that it had suffered a lot of damage.
The red and black sledgehammer only paused for a moment before continuing to hit Zhao Jian.
Zhao Jian's face was as dark as water, his eyes glowed with a dazzling blue light, and he looked towards Shangguan Xin.
Two dazzling blue lights suddenly shot out from his eyes and disappeared into the void around Shangguan Xin. Circles of invisible ripples suddenly appeared in the void.
Shi Mu's eyes flashed. Zhao Jian had also used this move in the secret realm. He almost fell into this trick in the first place!
"The power of time!"
Shangguan Xin's expression changed, but before he could react, circles of invisible ripples enveloped the space around him.
Shangguan Xin felt an invisible pressure suddenly coming from all directions. His body froze and his whole body movements stopped instantly. He was like a fly sealed in amber, unable to move at all.
The same goes for the falling giant hammer. It was still several feet away from Zhao Jian when it suddenly stopped.
There was a slight smile on Zhao Jian's lips, he waved his hands, and with a flash of void, countless white filaments emerged, winding towards Shangguan Xin.
At this moment, the black light on the originally motionless Shangguan Xin surged, the light on the giant hammer also flashed wildly, and the invisible fluctuations around him were shattered.
"Yes, but it's too late!"
Zhao Jian snorted, his hands trembled, and the white silk all around tied up Shangguan Xin, forming a human-shaped silkworm cocoon, and also wrapped the red and black giant hammer.
In the cocoon, Shangguan Xin roared and struggled hard, but to no avail.
The figure flashed, and Zhao Jian appeared behind Shangguan Xin. At this moment, his entire left hand suddenly emitted a burst of dazzling white light.
At the left end of the arena, Shi Mu stared motionlessly at Zhao Jian's left arm in mid-air, his face calm, but his heart was already in turmoil.
This was the first time that he witnessed other people performing the Nine Transformations Mysterious Technique. He saw clearly that this was indeed the first transformation, the power of the Sun!
While thinking about it, Zhao Jian punched Shangguan Xin hard.
The white filaments suddenly broke, and Shangguan Xin's figure flew out from the white silkworm cocoon, hitting the ring below hard, with blood spurting from his mouth, and his arms bent at a strange angle.
At the last moment, he used his last strength to block the vital point with his arms.
The black-red giant hammer also fell to the ground at this moment. In a flash, it turned into two black giant hammers, and the blood-red light dissipated.
Shangguan Xin endured the pain, his eyes full of disbelief, and struggled to stand up.
Zhao Jian's eyes turned cold, and a white light flashed in his left hand, as if he was about to take action again.
"Okay, the outcome has been decided, let's stop!" The figure flashed, and the red-browed young man appeared in front of Zhao Jian in mid-air.
Zhao Jian's eyes flashed and the white light on his hand dispersed.
"Zhao Jian successfully challenged Shangguan Xin and replaced him as the ninth disciple." The red-browed young man announced the result.
There was a burst of cheers under the ring, and many people on the challenger side also showed excitement.
Finally, someone succeeded in the challenge and was still among the top ten!
Zhao Jian stepped forward, flew into the air, and landed on the platform of the superior disciple, standing proudly where Shangguan Xin had just been.
Shangguan Xin glared at Zhao Jian fiercely, turned over and jumped off the ring.
The upper disciples had different expressions, especially those who had just followed Shangguan Xin in taunting the challenger. Their faces were not very good-looking, but some of them had a look of joy in their eyes.
The top ten high-ranking disciples all looked at Zhao Jian, their eyes showing a hint of solemnity and caution.
In the battle just now, Zhao Jian obviously did not use his full strength. In the next round of competition, he will never be content with the status quo.
Long Zhanye, who was standing on the far left, also glanced at Zhao Jian, with a golden light flashing in his eyes, but he looked away the next moment.
Zhao Jian succeeded in the challenge, which gave the others a lot of confidence. Before the red-browed young man could speak, another person jumped onto the ring, but it was a century-old disciple challenging a higher-ranking disciple who was ranked lower.
This person has some strength, but unfortunately the opponent's higher-ranking disciple is stronger. After several fierce battles, this century-old disciple was still defeated.
Although this person was defeated, he was not as helpless as Qing Changtian and the others, so as soon as the battle ended, a new challenger appeared on the stage.
Time passed little by little, and more than half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period, seven or eight challengers came on stage one after another, but except for Zhao Jian, all others ended in defeat without exception.
The defeated people did not return to the platform, but stood still under the ring.
Shi Mu stood silently among the crowd, with no intention of going on stage.
"Brother Shi, aren't you going to take the stage to challenge?" At this moment, a voice came from the side.
Shi Mu turned around and saw that two people on his left came on stage to challenge, and there was a space left. A girl in white appeared on the left, but it was Jiang Shuishui. He had been focusing on the front before, so he didn't notice it.
"Aren't you going to challenge Miss Jiang? With your strength, you should have a good chance." Shi Mu asked in return.
"Haha, Brother Shi thinks so highly of little girls, how can my strength be compared to Brother Shi's?" Jiang Shuishui chuckled.
"Miss Jiang, there is no need to be too modest. The strength you have shown in the secret realm is something even a heavenly being would not dare to despise." Shi Mu said this, and the young demon clan Jiangbeidao who appeared in the Heaven-turning Stick Restriction could not help but appear in his mind.
.
The other party's surname is also Jiang, and the secret technique he uses is exactly the same as Jiang Shuishui's. He should be from the same clan. Is there some connection between the two?
At this moment, in Shi Mu's dantian, the originally motionless Sky-Flirting Staff suddenly moved, and an invisible wave surged out.
Shi Mu's body stiffened and his eyes became misty.
At the same time, in a special space in Qinglan Holy Land, the space was filled with green light, and a white palace was suspended in mid-air.
"Eh..."
At this moment, a whisper came from the palace, the sound was so loud that the entire space shook with the sound.
The next moment, the figure disappeared, and a figure shrouded in cyan light appeared in the sky above the palace, and the face of the person inside could not be seen.
The man pinched his fingers as if he was calculating something, but after a while he still shook his head.
…
"Brother Shi, you..."
Shi Mu's body shook and he suddenly woke up.
"Brother Shi, what happened to you just now?" Jiang Shuishui looked at Shi Mu with a puzzled expression and asked.
Shi Mu's eyes narrowed, he took a deep breath, calmed down, shook his head and said, "It's okay."
His thoughts were tumbling, and he was also quite confused.
He didn't know what had just happened. It was like he had a dream, but after waking up from the dream, he couldn't remember anything.
He forced himself to calm down, looked inside, and checked the Heaven-turning Stick in his dantian.
This stick is lying quietly in the Dantian at this moment, without any movement.
Jiang Shuishui took a deep look at Shi Mu and said, "That's good. Brother Shi was in a daze just now, but he missed an extremely exciting battle."
