Chapter 346 Three to Zero

One finger!
Chen Beiwu used only one finger to completely crush the chief disciple of the Bixiao Immortal Sect with overwhelming force.

Is the Primordial Golden Elixir truly so powerful and insurmountable?

Looking at Chen Beiwu, who stood with his hands behind his back, all the thirteen Immortal Sect cultivators present had the same thought.

'How can it be! ’

One of the prodigies from the Azure Cloud Immortal Sect blinked, still finding it unbelievable.

On the official website of the Immortal Alliance, there are many legends about the Primordial Golden Elixir, such as its invincible foundation, boundless true qi, supreme Dharma body, and easy transcendence of realms, among many other exaggerated descriptions.

However, many legends are just rumors and not facts, after all, the Primordial Golden Elixir has not appeared for tens of thousands of years.

The exact power of the Primordial Golden Elixir can only be gleaned from ancient texts.

To put it another way, the Bixiao Immortal Sect is not without supreme lineages of those who possess the title of Golden Core.

Even though both are titled Golden Cores, and there is a distinction between superior and inferior ones, how much difference is there between the Azure Heaven Golden Core and the Primordial Golden Core?

And how much difference is there between the first-grade golden elixir forged by the chief and the primordial golden elixir?

But only now, after witnessing a completely crushing battle, did this prodigy from the Azure Sky realize something.

Perhaps for truly exceptional geniuses, realm is not the only standard for measuring strength!

The two minor realm barriers that ordinary cultivators cannot overcome appear extremely fragile in the face of the Primordial Golden Core.

'This is a late-stage Golden Core cultivator? Absolutely impossible!'

A hint of surprise and uncertainty flashed in the eyes of Lei Hao, the chief of the Nine Heavens Immortal Sect.

Although he looked down on the fighting style of the chief of the Bixiao Immortal Sect, there was one thing that was beyond doubt.

The opponent is definitely a cultivator who has condensed the rudimentary form of Yang God and is a true Golden Core Perfection cultivator. In terms of combat power alone, he could even rank among the top eight in the Immortal Sect Exchange Conference.

Otherwise, Lei Hao would never have wasted his time to specially invite a weakling to join forces at the gathering of heroes.

Even if Chen Beiwu, a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, had a very solid foundation and forged the legendary Primordial Golden Core, the gap between him and the chief disciple of the Bixiao Immortal Sect could not be so great.

Unless Chen Beiwu is not a late-stage Golden Core cultivator at all.

Upon thinking of this, a glint flashed in Lei Hao's eyes, and his gaze toward Chen Beiwu became more solemn.

"The alliance matter might need further consideration," Mu Nanyan of the Jade Floss Immortal Sect hesitated.

"The victor is Chen Beiwu of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect."

Feng Binhan gave Chen Beiwu a deep look and announced it to the public.

"Concession."

As soon as Chen Beiwu finished speaking, he turned around.

"and many more."

The chief disciple of the Azure Cloud Immortal Sect barely managed to sit up, his tone complex: "Can you tell me what that move was?"

"The Heavenly Finger of the Cave of Truth".

Chen Beiwu paused, then slowly stepped down from the dueling platform amidst the watchful eyes of the crowd.

Feng Binhan remained expressionless and continued to preside over the lottery ceremony.

Taiqing Immortal Sect versus Dongxuan Immortal Sect.

The Shangqing Immortal Sect versus the Jiuxiao Immortal Sect.

Jade Floss Immortal Sect versus Heavenly Flame Immortal Sect.

……

Chen Beiwu did not leave early today, but watched the quarterfinals of the debate tournament with his teammates.

However, there is an insurmountable barrier between the Upper Three Immortal Sects and the Ten Great Immortal Sects.

The two great immortal sects, Taiqing and Shangqing, eliminated Dongxuan and Jiuxiao immortal sects without lifting a finger.

The Jade Floss Immortal Sect successfully defeated the Heavenly Flame Immortal Sect, but was then defeated by the Nine Heavens Immortal Sect in a resurrection match.

"Senior Brother Chen, should we adjust the order of the lineup for tomorrow's battle?" Xue Tianyi asked telepathically.

Once they reach the semifinals, the probability of them running into the Three Immortal Sects is extremely high.

If their roster remains unchanged, their chances of winning the championship may become much more uncertain.

'certainly. '

Chen Beiwu nodded slightly and responded with his divine sense.

Since the start of the Dao Discussion Tournament, although Taiqing Chief Wang Chan and Shangqing Chief Zhao Yue have not revealed much of their strength, he can roughly sense that their strength is not to be underestimated through their aura perception.

Adjusting the battle roster is absolutely necessary to ensure a safe acquisition of the Strange Flame.

That night, Yu Zhaohua, Mo Qingshuang, Xue Tianyi, and Ye Xinya arrived together to discuss the order of the team roster. Their expressions were not as relaxed as they had been during the day.

"Mo Qingshuang is the vanguard, Ye Xinya is the second vanguard, Yu Zhaohua is the backbone, and Xue Tianyi is the mainstay."

After listening to the four people's opinions, Chen Beiwu suggested, "What do you think of me staying in charge and stabilizing the situation?"

"Isn't this too risky!" Mo Qingshuang was the first to object.

Unlike previous matches, the semifinals no longer have the revival rounds; the losers can only compete for the ranking order in the Dao Debate Battle.

By having Chen Beiwu, the strongest among them, continue to lead the team, it's almost equivalent to betting the outcome on the four of them.

It should be noted that Ye Xinya and Xue Tianyi's strength was only average and not outstanding.

If he is unlucky enough to face one of the top disciples of the Taiqing and Shangqing sects, the score could very well be 1 to 3.

At that time, Chen Beiwu will not even have a chance to play, and the Jade Purity Immortal Sect will be directly defeated and eliminated.

“Brother Mo is absolutely right. This is indeed a bit risky.” Xue Tianyi frowned slightly.

Faced with his teammates' doubts, Chen Beiwu remained calm: "Junior Sister Yu, if I put you against Wang Chan and Zhao Yue, are you confident you can win?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhaohua bit her lip.

Facing Wang Chan and Zhao Yue, she had a firm will to win the duel, but little confidence in her ability to prevail.

The reason is simple: the difference in cultivation levels between the two is too great, and even with her Fiery Dao Body and the title of Golden Core, it is difficult to make up for it.

"One percent."

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Yu Zhaohua said unwillingly.

Chen Beiwu then looked at Mo Qingshuang.

The latter paused for a moment, then calmly said, "Half a percent."

"In that case, if I were to take the lead instead of aiming for the top spot, and instead be a vanguard or a midfielder, and if I managed to secure one victory point without encountering Wang Chan and Zhao Yue, how confident would you be in securing the remaining two victory points?"

The atmosphere inside the cave immediately froze upon hearing Chen Beiwu's words.

"With my support, I can at least guarantee a minimum return," Chen Beiwu added.

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhaohua and the other three exchanged glances, all understanding Chen Beiwu's underlying meaning.

The Taiqing Immortal Sect is too strong; the four of them couldn't even get two victory points.

Compared to trusting them, Chen Beiwu clearly trusted himself more, even though the latter might have to play one against five, with a slim chance of winning, and was almost voluntarily taking the blame.

“Let’s do as Senior Brother Chen says,” Yu Zhaohua suddenly said, without asking Chen Beiwu for his opinion.

The Taiqing Immortal Sect is not in the same league as the Ten Great Immortal Sects.

In this battle where only I reign supreme, Senior Brother Chen is 100% confident of victory against the ten great immortal sects.

However, if Senior Brother Chen were to face the Taiqing Immortal Sect, fighting five against one, his chances of winning would probably be less than 50%.

But since Senior Brother Chen is the leader of Yuqing Team, and he is willing to take on all the pressure, they naturally cannot hold him back.

“I believe in Senior Brother Chen,” Ye Xinya agreed.

Mo Qingshuang and Xue Tianyi exchanged a glance and nodded.

There's nothing we can do. We can only blame ourselves for being weaker and not having the confidence to secure the victory, which caused Senior Brother Chen to suffer.

"There's no need to be so serious. Wang Chan and Zhao Yue might also choose to settle things and fight me head-on," Chen Beiwu smiled, easing the tension within the team.

……

The next day, early in the morning.

At the summit of Luoxia Peak, in the Battle Square.

Amidst much anticipation, the semi-final draw ceremony began.

With a flick of his finger, Feng Binhan caused the jade bead to shine brightly, and the four points of light inside it began to move wildly.

Three breaths later, the radiance gradually faded, and the two points of light each revealed their corresponding sect emblems, immediately igniting a noisy discussion throughout the entire dueling square.

The higher-ups of the Tianyan Immortal Sect also sat in their positions, their divine senses silently enveloping the entire dueling arena, eager to witness firsthand the direct confrontation between the three upper immortal sects.

"Semi-finals, first match." "Yuqing Immortal Sect versus Taiqing Immortal Sect!" Feng Binhan announced loudly, "Please welcome the vanguards from both sides to the stage."

'Good luck.'

Wang Chan smiled slightly and looked at Chen Beiwu.

He and Zhao Yue had sparred many times, with each side winning and losing.

Therefore, the only opponent he was looking forward to at this Immortal Sect Exchange Conference was Chen Beiwu.

Soon, the debate began.

Mo Qingshuang was the first to appear as the vanguard, and her opponent was Zhuang Fu, who was ranked second on the Taixu List.

"I've heard of you, Mo Qingshuang, the Azure Sword Cultivator. I hope you won't disappoint me."

Zhuang Fu smiled, and the Mustard Spirit Ring on his wrist flashed slightly, summoning a tall and elegant blue phoenix.

Upon seeing Qingluan, Mo Qingshuang's pupils constricted slightly, and she gripped the hilt of the Qingming Sword behind her tightly with her right hand.

This phoenix is ​​no ordinary bird. It is named Xunfeng Qingluan and belongs to the Heavenly Gang. Its speed is the ultimate among mystical beasts. The three Xun Gang winds generated by its wings are invisible and formless, and can penetrate everywhere.

Relying on the Three Winds and the Profound Path of the Wind, the Azure Phoenix of the Wind ranks among the top in the Immortal Alliance's Secret Examination of Heavenly and Earthly Beasts, making it a Heavenly Mystic Beast that countless Wind Spirit Root cultivators dream of.

"Why don't you summon your Glazed Sword Soul?" Zhuang Fu raised an eyebrow: "Or do you think that whether you summon it or not, the outcome will be the same—defeat?"

Among the younger generation of the Upper Three Immortal Sect, very few sword cultivators are capable of comprehending the fourth realm of swordsmanship, "One Sword Breaks Ten Thousand Laws".

Mo Qingshuang's swordsmanship was outstanding and he was quite famous, but what truly made him famous in the Upper Three Immortal Sect was his contracted companion beast, the Glazed Sword Soul.

The name "Liuli Sword Soul" sounds impressive, but it is actually just a third-tier treasure beast that is not among the Earthly Fiends.

Before Mo Qingshuang spent a great deal of effort to improve the bloodline of the Tongcan Beast, the Glazed Sword Soul was nothing more than a weak and helpless sludge monster, with its bloodline grade barely reaching the first-tier low grade.

It's not an exaggeration on Zhuang Fu's part; among the many first-tier exotic beasts, the slime monster is at the very bottom of the hierarchy, and virtually no cultivator from the Immortal Alliance would be willing to form a contract with it.

But there are always exceptions, and Mo Qingshuang is one of them.

Mo Qingshuang possesses exceptional swordsmanship talent and clearly has unlimited potential for immortality, yet she stubbornly defies the mainstream cultivation methods of the Immortal Alliance and goes so far as to form a contract with a slime monster.

"Enough with the nonsense, watch me kill you."

Mo Qingshuang drew her Azure Sword from behind and slashed at Xunfeng Qingluan.

"Qiang!"

"Qiang!"

"Qiang!"

Swords flashed, and Mo Qingshuang let out a muffled groan as her tiger's mouth split open, blood staining the hilt of her sword.

"Give up, you are no match for me."

Zhuang Fu stood on Xunfeng Qingluan, looking down at Mo Qingshuang from his high position.

Before Xunfeng Qingluan, the so-called sword that can break through all laws is nothing more than a wisp of wind.

'A glittering light, a breathtaking sight!'

Mo Qingshuang remained silent as the Glazed Sword Soul on her shoulder instantly merged into the Azure Nether Sword, becoming one with it.

The next instant, a clear and melodious sword cry resounded throughout the entire dueling square.

Mo Qingshuang became one with her sword, and her figure suddenly disappeared from the perception of the Golden Core cultivator, replaced by a sword light that defied the rules of heaven and earth.

This sword light seemed to carry the light of dawn, capable of hitting its target even before it was unleashed.

"Cheep!"

Xunfeng Qingluan blocked Zhuang Fu's path, his body stiffened, and a line of blood slowly appeared from his forehead to his abdomen. His massive body then split in two.

"I lost."

Mo Qingshuang sheathed her sword, protecting the Glazed Sword Soul with her right hand. She then nodded slightly to Zhuang Fu, turned around, and stepped off the stage.

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Fu paused in his hand seal formation. The Xunfeng Qingluan blocking his way began to unleash a gentle azure wind, repairing and healing the wounds that had been slashed, as if the earth-shattering sword strike had been nothing but an illusion.

Zhuang Fu gave Mo Qingshuang a deep look before turning and leaving the stage.

These days, the eccentric genius Yuqing is indeed quite capable.

If it weren't for his superior cultivation level, which allowed Xunfeng Qingluan to react in time, things might have really gone wrong.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Looking at Mo Qingshuang, who swayed after stepping off the stage but whose spine remained straight, Chen Beiwu said softly.

Zhuang Fu's combat strength is no less than Yu Zhaohua's.

Mo Qingshuang's ability to fight to this extent with only the late-stage Golden Core realm is already at its peak.

'We might have to rely on you next.'

With that thought, Mo Qingshuang immediately closed her eyes and began to regulate her breathing.

At this moment, it was the turn of the second-in-command to take the stage. Ye Xinya's opponent was Lu Yuan, a prodigy ranked third on the Taixu Ranking, whose cultivation level was as high as the Golden Core Perfection.

As Chen Beiwu had predicted, Ye Xinya was quickly defeated in the ensuing battle.

If her opponent hadn't shown her mercy and held back, Ye Xinya might have suffered even more injuries.

'Two to zero, the Jade Purity Immortal Sect is most likely finished this time.' Lei Hao's eyes brightened slightly.

His previous analysis was correct. Compared with previous Immortal Sect Exchange Meetings, the lineup of this year's Jade Purity Immortal Sect was significantly inferior. There were three cultivators at the late stage of Golden Core, and only one cultivator at the peak of Golden Core, and he was not even the chief-level genius.

Excellent! This year is definitely the most promising year for the Nine Heavens Immortal Sect!
At the same time, Wang Chan stood up and walked towards the dueling platform.

‘It’s over! ’

Upon seeing the figures on the dueling platform, Xue Tianyi's heart skipped a beat.

Ye Xinya pursed her lips and subconsciously looked at Chen Beiwu. She found that the latter's expression was still calm, as if it was the Jade Purity Immortal Sect that was about to win the three-to-nil score. Her worries immediately dissipated.

What bad luck!

Yu Zhaohua remained calm, took a deep breath, and went on stage.

She was a woman who refused to admit defeat. Even though she was up against Wang Chan, the chief disciple of the Taiqing Immortal Sect, and her chances of winning were slim, she was determined to fight with all her might.

Upon seeing Yu Zhaohua, Wang Chan frowned slightly and glanced at Chen Beiwu below the stage.

That's interesting. Is he overthinking it?

Chen Beiwu was not just a key player, but the undisputed leader.

"start."

As soon as Feng Binhan finished speaking, Yu Zhaohua immediately retreated, forming hand seals to prepare to apply various buffing techniques to the Tongcan Beast.

The Flint Dragon stood firmly on the ground, unleashing the Earth Fire Synergy, which sent pillars of molten lava from the earth's core soaring into the sky, buying time for the contracted cultivator to cast his spells.

Wang Chan, with an indifferent expression, slowly raised his right hand, his five fingers slightly spread, and gently pressed it against the Flint Dragon.

"Buzz!" The void trembled, and the Daoist rhyme resounded.

As the surrounding spiritual energy converged, the pupils of the Flint Rock Dragon shrank slightly, and a supreme phantom could be vaguely seen appearing behind Wang Chan.

The phantom was like a being that created the world, its height unknown and its face unclear. The only thing that could be sensed was its ancient and enduring aura.

Before this force, all things must bow down!

Just then, Wang Chan's palm fell, and the illusory image of the Supreme God Taiqing behind him also opened his indifferent eyes, raised his giant palm that could control earth, water, fire and wind, and slowly pressed it down towards Yu Zhaohua.

Before the palm print landed, the Flintstone Dragon trembled, and spiderweb-like cracks spread across its scales.

Yu Zhaohua's hand seal movement froze, as if a faint spark had been mercilessly extinguished by a giant hand.

"boom!"

The giant hand fell, and both the man and the beast collapsed.

The Flint Dragon lay prone on the ground, its lava scales completely disintegrating, its aura shifting unpredictably.

Yu Zhaohua lay motionless at the bottom of the lava pit, a trace of confusion still lingering in her eyes.

Upon seeing this, Wang Chan withdrew his hand, and the overwhelming phantom of the Supreme God Taiqing behind him slowly dissipated.

"The victor is Wang Chan of the Taiqing Immortal Sect."

As Feng Binhan's voice rang out, the cultivators of the Immortal Sect present seemed to awaken from a dream.

Instead of the intense showdown they had envisioned, it was a one-sided crushing defeat.

Three to zero.

Taiqing Immortal Sect wins!

However, Wang Chan showed no joy of victory on his face, and looked down at Chen Beiwu below the stage.

Chen Beiwu also looked up, his gaze meeting Chen Beiwu's.
