The Great Wild God - Chapter 228
Chapter 228 Battle
Prime Minister Wei Zhong knew that Chen Xun was at least an inner disciple of the Divine Night Sect. Even if Wei Che was confident that he could kill Chen Xun, what good would it do to the Wei Clan?
Wei Zhongxiang hesitated for a moment, then said in a loud voice, “You can take a risk. With Adept Gu, Adept Hu, and Adept Ji here, there’s no need to worry about any mishaps …” Chen Xun and Wei Che were truly going to come out in danger, and Gu Wentian and Ji Lie could stop them.
Hearing Wei Zhongxiang’s words, Chen Xun smiled faintly at Wei Che and said, “Look, the Wei Clan is still reluctant to let you die.”
As a direct disciple of Mount Qiyun, Wei Che had high hopes of advancing to the Heavenly Yuan realm. In the clouds, the Yuanwu and Shangyuan Prefectures had long since gained prominence. In this battle, very few people present were optimistic about the unknown Chen Xun.
However, no one expected Wei Che to be so decisive. Wei Clan’s Prime Minister Wei Zhongxiang actually took the initiative to admit defeat. Everyone looked at each other in dismay, thinking to themselves, could Wei Che really be defeated?
“You” Wei Che made Chen Xun so arrogant that he didn’t know what to say that he vomited blood. It was obvious that the beast in front of him didn’t dare to fight to the death, but it forced the Wei Clan to say such words. The cultivators present all thought that it was him, Wei Che, who was feeling terrified.
However, since Wei Zhongxiang had already said those words, there was nothing he could do. He stared fiercely at Chen Xun and thought to himself, if he could kill Chen Xun before Ji Lie and the others rescued him, then the Divine Night Sect probably wouldn’t be able to say anything.
“Everyone has their eyes on who wins and who loses. Chen Xun, aren’t you afraid that you will be laughed at by everyone after a while?” Wei Guan knew that Wei Che was arrogant and could not stand Chen Xun’s provocation, so he stood up and shouted loudly.
“Being laughed at?” Chen Xun said coldly, “Your Wei Clan has abducted cultivators as slaves, violated the great taboo of the world, and humiliated me several times. Today, I still have good intentions to spare Wei Che’s life. If you want the slightest bit of conscience, you should remember my good intentions. If you think what I said today is all big talk, you can come up on stage and fight with Wei Che to see who kneels last to save me …”
Wei Guan took a deep breath and suppressed the hatred in his heart. He felt the veins on his forehead pounding. He knew that he wouldn’t be able to get any benefit if he continued speaking, so he kept silent.
“Alright, Chen Xun, stop bluffing and talk so much.” Xia Xiangyi, who represented Gu Yangfeng, said loudly, stopping them from pestering him.
Chen Xun tied the two quiver bags from his spatial ring to his back and took out a large emerald bow and held it in his hand.
Seeing this scene, even though Wei Guan was prepared, his heart couldn’t help but tighten. He thought that there were no less than a hundred Green Flame Lotus Arrows in those two quiver bags.
Chen Xunren’s name was unknown in the clouds, but the news that Chen Xun had forced Jiang Ke, the eldest son of Marquis Yuan, to retreat with three arrows in the Divine Night Sect had already spread throughout the Divine Night Sect. Furthermore, they had personally witnessed Chen Xun killing three Marquis Yuan’s black armor with the Azure Flame Thunderbolt Son in the sand Sea.
To be honest, even though Wei Che was at the peak of the Reincarnation Realm, Wei Guan did not think that he had the confidence to win.
Wei Guan knew the details and thought so in his heart. However, how would many cultivators who had visited Meng Mountain know about this? Seeing Chen Xun taking out an arrow and two packs of secret talisman arrows, and about to fight Wei Che to the death, he shouted in his heart in disappointment. He thought, “There’s still Mao to watch in this competition!”
However, when they thought of Chen Xun as an inner disciple of the Divine Night Sect, although everyone was disappointed in their hearts, it was not good for them to boo him and knock Chen Xun off the stage.
Gu Chengzhuo stood up and announced the start of the competition, “I hope that the two senior brothers will treat peace as their prize. Don’t hurt your friendship with fellow Daoists …”
Before Gu Chengzhuo could finish his sentence, Chen Xun pulled out a few arrows from his quiver and shot them towards the sky.
Wei Che didn’t expect Chen Xun to be so shameless. He didn’t even care about this rule. He hurriedly used several spirit covers to protect his entire body, and hastily drew out a sword light to slash towards Chen Xun. “You dare to attack first before the competition even starts” Wei Che didn’t expect Chen Xun to be so shameless.
Everyone also felt that Chen Xun’s archery was too irregular. Even if many experts from the Divine Night Sect were present, they would still have to complain for Wei Che. However, a few arrows shot over a thousand feet into the sky and suddenly exploded with fireworks. In the air, eight large words flashed with golden light.
“May Daoist Valley live forever!”
Everyone was stunned for a moment, but now, Wei Che was attacking unreasonably. Wei Che himself was stunned.
Gu Wentian, who was sitting in the middle of the canopy, couldn’t help but laugh. Even if he had cultivated for hundreds of years, he still hoped that he could win a good lottery today.
Chen Xun avoided Wei Che’s sword light with the Shadow Separation Technique. There seemed to be a cloud-step in the void. He told him to step into the air with his ape body. In an instant, it was already a thousand feet away. He shouted loudly, “Senior Brother Wei, since you took the initiative, then I won’t stand on ceremony.” Before he could say anything, the four Cyan Flame Lotus arrows in his hand had already shot out …
Wei Che had asked Chen Xun to deceive him into taking action first, but in reality, he was half a beat behind. There was bitterness in his heart, and he scolded Chen Xun’s eighteen generations of ancestors to the point of bloodshed. However, seeing that Chen Xun had already shot four arrows at him, he could only stand up and fight.
Compared to the battle platform, which was only fifty zhang in diameter, Chen Xun had the advantage of leaping into the sky first.
It was extremely difficult for Wei Che to avoid the Cyan Flame Lotus Arrow within a fifty zhang radius, so he could only take out the Buddha Pagoda and forcefully carry four arrows.
The tower was shattered, and the platform Wei Che had cut from the entire stone peak was instantly covered with bead-like cracks, which would shatter into powder if he withstood another blow.
The bottle of Buddha Pagoda in Wei Che’s hand was only a replica of the Wei Clan’s supreme treasure, the Buddha Pagoda of Ling Tian. However, it was also a top-grade Advanced Magic Tool. He hadn’t expected that it wouldn’t be able to block Chen Xun’s four arrows and shatter into pieces in his hand.
However, he didn’t know that Chen Xun’s cultivation had improved over the past year. The Green Flame Lotus Fire hidden within the arrow was even more refined and pure. At the same time, Chen Xun had also made many improvements to the Green Flame Lotus Arrow. The explosive power of each Green Flame Lotus Fire had increased by at least 40% to 50%.
The Mountain Opening Ceremony was not auspicious for killing people. Chen Xun wanted to win over the Meng Mountain Sect, so he naturally wouldn’t kill Wei Che at this moment, but he definitely wouldn’t give Wei Che the slightest chance to show off.
Before Wei Che could breathe a sigh of relief, Chen Xun shot another four arrows at a height of 10,000 feet.
Wei Che had no choice but to directly take out the Brahma Heaven Bell that Jiang Bin had borrowed from him.
Back then, the Burning Heaven Bell had been able to suppress the violent Heavenly Yao for more than ten breaths of time, winning some time for the disciples of the various sects to withdraw. It was more than enough to block the Cyan Flame Lotus Arrow.
Wei Che forcefully received the four arrows. The Burning Heaven Bell was completely unharmed. The Buddhist light was round and smooth. There was a spring breeze that neutralized the intense cold. However, the aftermath of the explosion was still enough to cause Wei Che’s qi and blood to float.
Above in the sky, Chen Xun had already shot out the Cyan Flame Lotus arrows from his quiver like beads …
The high platform had already been shattered to the point that it couldn’t be shattered further. However, there were three Origin Core Realm cultivators who had set up restrictions on the spot. The onlookers were not afraid that they would be affected by the aftermath of the Cyan Flame Lotus Arrow. Even the ground wasn’t damaged in the slightest.
However, within the restriction, a ghostly light exploded, and the black flames exploded repeatedly like lotuses. Even the restriction laid down by Origin Pill Taoist could shake like waves of water. Everyone was extremely shocked. They didn’t know what kind of secret talisman arrow it looked like, but Wei Che, who had a high-grade Earth-ranked magical artifact in his hand, didn’t even have the ability to retaliate?
Qing Xuan’s heart trembled endlessly. Seeing Su Fuchen, Su Wuyang, and the others’ expressions greatly change, she probably didn’t expect Chen Xun to have such power when he attacked today, right?
Jiang Bin, Wei Zhong, and the others frowned slightly as they watched this scene.
Zhao Cheng’en crossed his legs and smiled at Xia Xiangyi, “It’s just an ordinary competition. Chen Xun doesn’t know how to cherish the Cyan Flame Lotus Arrow, so he’s not afraid to shoot all the arrows, so there’s nothing else he can do.”
Jiang Bin, Wei Zhong, and the others knew that as long as Chen Xun missed the two cyan flame lotus arrows, Wei Che would be able to reverse his current disadvantage and launch a counterattack. However, they were all worried that the Heaven Burning Bell in Wei Che’s hand would not be able to withstand a hundred arrows.
They couldn’t help but look at Gu Wentian, Hu Taiyan, and Ji Lie. They knew that only the three of them had the eyesight to see who had the advantage.
However, Gu Wentian, Hu Taiyan, and Ji Lie didn’t show any signs of doing so. They just stared at the front.
Without Wei Che having the slightest bit of counterattack power, Chen Xun’s archery was naturally extremely fast. Just as everyone’s minds were spinning, the two cyan flame lotus arrows had already been shot empty …
Wei Che watched as the Burning Heaven Bell above his head started to crack like a pearl net. He felt bitter in his heart. He didn’t expect that this high-grade Earth-ranked magical artifact would actually be forcefully destroyed by Chen Xun.
However, when he saw that the quiver behind Chen Xun was empty, a harsh look flashed in his eyes. He threw the Burning Heaven Bell aside and tossed it into the air with the Imperial Heaven Ring. It shot out a golden light of ten thousand feet. He coldly shouted, “Let’s see what other methods you have.”
“If I can’t beat you, I’ll admit defeat at most,” Chen Xun smiled as he stood high up in the sky. “It’s not like I feel embarrassed.”
All the cultivators present wanted to shout that Chen Xun was too shameless. They all wanted to defend Wei Che against injustice. They were shot more than a hundred arrows and a top-grade earth-step magical artifact was destroyed. Before he could breathe, Chen Xun immediately admitted defeat. How could Wei Che breathe out the breath he was holding in his chest?
Wei Che’s livid face instantly turned pale, and his blood vitality fluctuated in his heart. There was an indescribable pain in his heart. He wished he could rush forward and tear this beast into pieces. However, he had nothing to do with Chen Xun at this moment. Wei Zhongxiang had said earlier that Ji Lie and the others could stop the battle and not allow them to fight to the death, so how could he stop Chen Xun from admitting defeat and leaving the arena fight?
Wei Che firmly suppressed the blood and qi in his heart, resisting the impulse to rush forward and bite, pretending to be calm as he said, “If you have the face to admit defeat, I can’t really kill you …”
“What a pity, you still don’t have the qualifications to tell me to admit defeat!” As Chen Xun spoke, his hand did not stop. Instead, he carried two more bags of Green Lotus Flame Arrows behind him. Four of the arrows had already been placed on the string, and he said coldly, “Today, I want to see how many Earth-ranked magical artifacts you have to shoot for me!”
Wei Che was so angry that he spat out blood. If he hadn’t interrupted him earlier, he could have rushed forward to kill Chen Xun in close combat the instant he took the arrow, so that Chen Xun wouldn’t have the chance to shoot again. However, seeing the four arrows shoot towards him, he didn’t have the time to change his defensive magical artifact, so he could only forcefully use his Heaven Ring Ring Ring Ring.
The Heavenly Imperial Ring collided with the Green Flame Lotus Arrow. Four waves of the Green Flame Lotus Arrow shot past, causing the Heavenly Imperial Ring to shatter into pieces and land on the ground. Wei Che’s heart was dripping with blood, but his hand did not dare to pause at all. He could only forcefully use other magical artifacts to block it …
Wei Guan sighed in his heart. Looking at Wei Zhongxiang, Wei Che was still struggling. At this moment, only Wei Zhongxiang was qualified to stand up and admit defeat for Wei Che. If this continued, that rogue Chen Xun could admit defeat and leave the arena at any time. However, the Wei Clan could not afford to lose so many high-grade magical artifacts. It would be better to let them fight to the death from the very beginning.
