Chapter 591: Chapter 562: Starry Sky of Ten Thousand Realms, Clash of the Mighty
"The Immortal Slaying Sword Array; it seems this person is quite remarkable!"
While other cultivators were fervently discussing the Celestial List competition, Gu Qingyang was likewise watching the battles in the starry sky.
The difference was.
His Divine Thought Incarnation proliferated into billions, capturing every battle in the starry sky at a glance.
Every cultivator had three opportunities to compete, and not long after the competition began, over a hundred million cultivators had already been eliminated.
This was quite normal.
Although the competition commenced with the seventh tier as the starting point.
One must understand that even a seventh-tier cultivator, within today’s Cyan Yang Divine Realm, is quite plentiful, amounting to several tens of billions.
While eighth-tier cultivators are not as numerous as seventh-tier ones, there are still several billion, not to mention billions of ninth-tier cultivators.
Over a hundred million cultivators being eliminated at a glance is more than normal.
After all, some luckless cultivators may encounter top-tier powerhouses of the same rank, and defeat is just defeat, nothing worth mentioning.
If three times in a row they meet someone stronger, it indicates that the opponent is truly unlucky.
Cultivation.
Sometimes it indeed relies on luck.
Or one could say luck is also a part of strength.
However.
Compared to other levels, the tenth-tier sky battle is undoubtedly the fiercest.
Any strong contender capable of Ascension to Immortality is not weak; even with some disparity among themselves, if they reveal all their trump cards, they won’t necessarily be suppressed at a glance.
Take, for example, the battle between the Cyan Emperor and the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable.
The Cyan Emperor, having condensed a superior Immortal Body and reached the tenth tier’s middle grade, is considered the first of the Body Refining System, his strength unrivaled in the same tier, yet even he cannot directly suppress the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable.
The latter, although only gathering an intermediate grade Immortal Body and being one level below the Cyan Emperor, is still not to be underestimated when fighting with full force.
The Immortal Slaying Sword Array exhibited by the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable even piqued Gu Qingyang’s interest.
With his perspective, it’s evident that the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable’s talent is indeed not weak, having self-created the Immortal Slaying Sword Array, belonging to a top-tier murderous technique, which is what allowed him to hold his own against the Cyan Emperor.
However.
These are only temporary.
The disparity in strength between the two is substantial. If the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable was also a tenth-tier middle-grade, there might be a slim chance of victory, but now, his defeat is a foregone conclusion.
As expected.
As the battle progressed, the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable gradually fell into a disadvantage.
Defeat.
Is simply a matter of time.
Yet, as the saying goes, no cultivator who has attained Ascension to Immortality is a simple person.
So while other Celestial Lists saw cultivators being eliminated one after another, the battles on the tenth-tier remained fierce, even if their bodies were bloodied, they still fought to the death without retreating.
"Boom!"
"Rumble!"
The void shattered as Gu Fang treaded the Star River, his Fist Gang shattering the Azure Sky, the terrifying Blood Qi Power seemed almost tangible, transforming into a roaring True Dragon. His opponent was also a Longevity Immortal who ascended through body refining, with a physique equally formidable.
Their fight.
Shattering heavens and earth.
...
In another part of the starry sky, Shen Xue communicated with the Star Power, launching thousands of Techniques that rained down, thunderous flames ravaging, the vast starry sky churned by this arcane power.
And her opponent was an Earth Immortal who ascended through celestial cultivation, forming hand seals to summon Celestial Thunder, clashing Taoist Techniques, refusing to retreat even half a step.
...
Each formidable expert was vying for supremacy, with hidden trump cards now fully exposed. In the audience, everyone watched the starry battles with their hearts shaking, utterly amazed by the spectacle.
"Wow, that Hall Master of the Snow Mountain Holy Hall is really strong. Newly advanced to the tenth-tier for only a few years, yet already suppressing an old Earth Immortal. Could the Star Law God be truly this powerful?"
"Ignorant, when Hall Master Shen first attained the Star Law God, they directly defeated an immortal. How can their strength be ordinary?"
"Makes me wonder if it’s still not too late for me to shift to the Magic System..."
"What’s so special about a Star Law God, a real man should go hand-to-hand."
"Hand-to-hand is pointless, we should cultivate immortality, wield swords to fly, summon Celestial Thunder, imagine how grand that scene would be!"
Many were excitedly watching the battles in the starry sky, and the slaughter among such mighty beings thrilled them, making them wish they could join in.
However.
These people still had self-awareness.
After all, only those with sufficient cultivation or confidence in battling across levels had mostly entered the Starry Sky of Ten Thousand Realms to fight.
The true spectators were those in the lower ranks of the cultivation world, with none of the strongest cultivators exceeding the seventh-tier.
After all.
The Celestial List offers rich rewards.
Even strong figures in high positions cannot resist such temptation.
The notion of hiding one’s skills naturally won’t occur.
The Celestial List competition lasted a full month, and finally, someone in the tenth-tier celestial list suffered defeat.
The defeated was none other than.
The Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable.
Despite how powerful the Immortal Slaying Sword Array was, it could not withstand the Cyan Emperor’s assault. When the bronze battle blade, evolved into an Immortal Soldier, emerged, not even an Immortal Sword could hold against it.
The Sword Array collapsed.
Even going all out, the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable couldn’t reverse the tide.
In the end.
The bronze battle blade shattered the Protective Gang Qi, and at the moment the World-Ending Blade Light came into view, the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable knew he was defeated.
As expected.
Before the World-Ending Blade Light could reach him, a sudden golden light enveloped the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable, blocking the deadly strike and directly teleporting him out of the Starry Sky of Ten Thousand Realms.
"Defeated!"
The Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable looked at the new void before him, sighing softly.
Reflecting on the battle with the Cyan Emperor, he felt little regret, for engaging in a life and death battle with a powerhouse had provided him with considerable insight.
The Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable had a premonition that if he continued, he might find the opportunity for deeper understanding, thereby breaking through to the tenth-tier middle grade.
With this thought.
The Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable calmed his heart.
He was waiting.
Waiting for a new opponent to arrive.
It is worth mentioning.
Any cultivator ending a previous battle would have all their energy completely restored, including any injuries healed, so there was no need to worry about severe wounds or excessive exhaustion.
With the Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable first in defeat, other tenth-tier strong contenders also began to see victories and defeats one after another.
Victories and defeats determined.
Next.
Was the second competition.
The Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Venerable saw the cultivator appearing before him and instantly knew his opponent had arrived.
On the other side.
In the starry sky.
Master Huan Yu, clad in white, stood suspended, his aura somewhat disheveled, now gradually settled.
"Having won the first battle, according to the celestial list competition rules, if I win the second, I will surely enter the top hundred of the tenth-tier celestial list!"
With this thought.
Master Huan Yu looked at the new opponent with a strong fighting spirit emerging on his face.
