NOVPUBThe essence of every weapon, converged within, this represents the ultimate state of weaponry.
Most people simply couldn’t grasp the essence of so many weapons, only those with the Hundred Arms Battle Body could accomplish it with ease.
Endless weapon essences collected in the sky above.
It was hard to imagine how powerful this force could be.
As more and more weapons converged, the intent in the sky became more and more imposing and majestic.
It seemed as if it could puncture a hole in the heavens.
Seeing this momentum, Gong Yuner also smiled slightly, becoming serious.
The Four Harmonies Seal in her hand formed new hand seals, and four different marks slowly floated out from her palm.
Then, her hands clapped together, more and more of the Four Harmonies Seals surged out.
These marks merged into her domain, making the power of the domain stronger and its oppressive force ever increasing.
When Li Mubai’s weapon essence had converged to the limit, there was a "boom," and the confined space finally couldn’t withstand this power and shattered.
"Kill," Li Mubai’s whole body was sharp and menacing, as if he were a bloodthirsty divine weapon.
The power gathered above his head surged down in a mighty slash.
The imprisoned void along the path was broken, showing the strength of this power.
"Bring it on," Gong Yuner scoffed.
The domain of the Four Harmonies Seal unfolded, countless of the same seals floated within it.
The power of the domain expanded and also crushed the imprisoned void.
When the weapon essence collided with the domain, everyone felt as if the world in front of them had stopped.
An unprecedented explosion resonated before them.
A mushroom cloud rose to the sky, and merely the aftermath sent the Divine Vein practitioners around flying.
The whole diamond arena was shattered.
Dust flew, the ground shook, and people’s ears even rang, their heads reeling.
"We should have won, right?" someone said, unsure.
Everyone looked toward the center of the explosion, and as the dust settled, they could see faint spiritual energy still fluctuating.
"She, she," someone stuttered, watching the scene in front of them.
In the center of the domain, Gong Yuner was half-kneeling on the ground, her long hair somewhat disheveled but otherwise seemingly unharmed.
The power of the domain still lingered, protecting her surroundings.
Li Mubai, on the other hand, had his strength exhausted.
His Battle Body entered a state of weakness, and beads of sweat the size of beans fell from his forehead.
Similarly half-kneeling on the ground, his eyes looked lifelessly at the floor.
"Bring him over," Baili Chengfeng sighed.
"It’s clear he’s been defeated again, without the strength for another fight."
Gong Yuner slowly stood up, the battle having dislodged the hairpin on her head.
As she stood, her long, shiny black hair cascaded down smoothly.
With her hair somewhat disheveled, she casually tied it into a long braid and let it fall behind her.
Her gaze was calm as she looked around and said, "Next."
People exchanged looks; many were already thinking of backing down.
At this point, going up would be nothing but humiliating oneself.
"Primordial, you and Xiao’er discuss who will go next," Baili Chengfeng said from the side.
"There’s no point for anyone else to go up."
After Baili Chengfeng finished speaking, he took another look at Xu Zimei and asked, "Young Master Xu, do you have any thoughts?"
"Baili Family, as the hosts, it is naturally more fitting for your Saintess to go up," Xu Zimei replied.
"Then I’ll go," Baili Xiao coldly glanced at Xu Zimei and then stepped up onto the martial arts platform, one step at a time.
The battle between the two women, especially between beings of their caliber, certainly energized everyone.
Baili Xiao stepped forward, her white dress fluttering gently in the breeze.
With each step she took, her aura grew stronger.
By the time she stood in front of Gong Yuner, her presence was overwhelming, unstoppable.
"I’ll give you ten minutes to rest, so no one can say my victory was dishonorable," Baili Xiao said indifferently.
Gong Yuner wasn’t angered by Baili Xiao’s statement.
Instead, she nodded, sat down cross-legged, and said, "I only need five minutes."
It was clear that the previous battle had seriously drained her, but also that the pressure Baili Xiao exerted was extraordinary.
"That’s the compassion of a woman," someone in the audience remarked regretfully upon seeing this.
"She should just fight directly. Why bother with saving face?"
"The strong always have their dignity. Especially these Talented Disciples, so arrogantly confident.
They naturally wouldn’t want a dishonorable victory," another person explained.
Upon witnessing this scene, Xu Qingshan turned to Xu Zimei with a smile and said, "Mo Er, how is the journey to the Tianwu Convention this time?" 𝒏𝒐𝒗𝒑𝒖𝙗.𝒄𝒐𝒎
"Not too bad," Xu Zimei nodded.
"At the very least, he got to understand the strength of the Eastern Continent. These are all contenders he’ll face for Destiny in the future."
"If you were to fight them, what are your odds of winning?" Xu Qingshan asked further.
"A great wave washes away all; with one hand, I suppress the continents, with a flick, I pressure Tianwu," Xu Zimei chuckled.
"They’re not even in my sight."
"You’re too confident," Xu Qingshan warned.
"With strength comes confidence," Xu Zimei replied with a smile.
...
Gong Yuner slowly opened her eyes, expelling a breath of white air.
She stood up and said, "Let’s begin."
Baili Xiao didn’t say much in response, her nature was always cool.
Her figure, exuding boundless might, lunged directly towards Gong Yuner with the intention to suppress her.
Boundless Spiritual Energy enveloped both fighters as they roared into battle against each other.
Every move and form seemed to return to simplicity, straight to the essence of the technique.
Gong Yuner executed the Reverse Dragon Seven Steps, mixed with the Netherworld Soul-Severing Palm, incorporating the Four Harmonies Seal, as if she were going to shatter half of the Firmament.
On Baili Xiao’s side, her movements were graceful, as if a Fairy had descended from heaven.
Not only was it aesthetically pleasing, but the power was also like a rainbow piercing through the sun, extremely formidable.
Thunderous explosions resounded all around.
The fighters moved from the ground to the sky, stepping into the air, flashing from south to north; the entire sky was filled with their flickering figures.
The booming sounds were endless, and the void occasionally shattered.
After battling for over ten minutes, the two figures finally separated, each staring down the other.
"Continuing like this, who knows when it will end," Gong Yuner said blandly.
"Let’s bring out our True Fates."
As her voice fell, the scenery around them began to change.
A purple Spiritual Energy surged from behind Gong Yuner, reaching towards the heavens, dyeing the entire Firmament.
Immediately, starlight scattered, and the surrounding space was enveloped by the starry sky.
"Alkaid, Ying Huo, Tian Yuan, Xuan Yuan, Nian Dao, Tu Sikong."
Each time Gong Yuner called out, a star in the starry sky shone brilliantly.
"Dong Shangxiang, Beiluo Sect."
All eight major stars shone together before the world.
