Chapter 744
Chapter 744
In the outside world, everyone's attention was focused on the five hundred passages.
So far, two to three hundred people had been eliminated.
Most of the people were still between the intersection of the second and third passageways.
"Of the five geniuses who activated the Light of Prodigy, Chen Yu and Venerable Fallen Moon reached the fourth passage at the same time!"
"As a body cultivator, Chen Yu has a slight advantage. But it's already very impressive that he's able to keep pace with Venerable Fallen Moon."
In everyone's mind, the most interesting part of this year's Prodigy Ranking Tournament was the second place.
There was no doubt that the first place belonged to the Fallen Moon Venerable.
He had been in this position for three whole years and no one could shake him.
Before the second stage, Venerable Fallen Moon and the Absolute Sword Fairy had fought.
Everyone had thought that the Absolute Sword Fairy might be able to create a miracle.
But in the end, Venerable Fallen Moon still defeated the Absolute Sword Fairy with an overwhelming advantage.
Above the Sacred Region Empty Realm Formation, the powerful figures of the southern region were mainly focused on the top few.
Among them was Chen Yu.
"I didn't expect the Solitary Blood Monarch's disciple to create a miracle step by step in the first stage. Now, he's on par with Venerable Fallen Moon in the second stage."
A Challenger from the Firestorm Way said with a smile.
He had a good relationship with the Solitary Blood Monarch and was not stingy with his compliments.
Not far away, the Dark Feather Monarch's expression was gloomy.
He had previously said that his disciple far surpassed the Solitary Blood Monarch's disciple.
But what was the result?
Luo Qiumei had lost to Chen Yu in the first round. In the second round, however, Chen Yu was far ahead of everyone else. He was now neck and neck with the Venerable Moonfall.
"Hm? Who is Chen Yu's opponent in this stage?"
When the Dark Feather Monarch was sizing up Chen Yu, he also observed Chen Yu's next opponent.
He couldn't help but smirk. "What a pity, Solitary Blood Monarch. Your disciple's Light of Prodigy is about to disappear."
"The Light of Prodigy that isn't activated with true ability is only a flash in the pan."
The other Challengers were confused. Why would the Dark Feather Monarch say this?
"Chen Yu's opponent is … Shen Ji …"
The King of the Firestorm Way said as his voice started to fade.
On the Black Demon Valley's side, the Solitary Blood King King and the Demon King Valley Master remained silent.
There had always been some conflict between the two of them, and their relationship was not very good.
As for Chen Yu and Shen Ji, one was the leader of the younger generation of Black Demon Valley and represented the face of the Sect, while the other was the genius who had triggered the Light of Heaven's Chosen and represented the glory of the Sect.
Who would have thought that the two of them would meet at the end of the second round?
There was no need to mention Shen Ji's strength. Everyone felt that he was stronger than Chen Yu, and he had a chance of entering the top five.
If Shen Ji won, wouldn't Chen Yu be eliminated?
Or perhaps Chen Yu would choose to use up 055 marks to change his route. In this way, the glory of the Chosen One would be gone.
In fact, the Sect wanted to preserve the glory of the Heaven's pridelings, which would make the Black Demon Valley more famous.
But with Shen Ji's personality, he would never use his mark to change routes.
"Solitary Blood King, do you want to continue betting? Bet that your disciple can win, haha... "
Dark Feather King's face was full of a smirk.
Solitary Blood King did not respond. As one of the Valley Masters of Black Demon Valley, how could he use this to bet in a battle between two disciples of Black Demon Valley?
Moreover, Shen Ji was indeed very strong, and he had no confidence in Chen Yu.
"Haha."
Seeing that Solitary Blood King was silent, Dark Feather King felt refreshed.
It was ironic that his Sect's Light of Heaven's Chosen One was deprived by a disciple of his own Sect.
...
At the intersection of the passageways, Chen Yu began to refine his Mysterious Pattern Demon Body after drinking the Firesplendent Wine.
Behind him, there was a star-patterned light film. Once he passed it, he would pass the second round.
It was also because of this that the gravity here was very astonishing.
If it were an ordinary Middle-stage Void Sea expert, it would be very exhausting to fly here.
But for Chen Yu, who was refining his body, it was a good thing.
Under such a powerful external force, the effect of the Firesplendent Wine was quickly stimulated and played its best role.
After a while, he took out the Firesplendent Wine and took a big gulp.
There were two jars of Firesplendent Wine in the storage space of the Bloodthirsty Sect's second brother. Otherwise, it would not have been enough for Chen Yu.
"There should be Firesplendent Wine in the storage space of the Bloodthirsty Sect's second brother."
Chen Yu suddenly remembered that he had killed the Bloodthirsty Sect's first brother.
He had not sorted out the spoils of war. Right now, the Heaven's Chosen Ranking Battle was his priority.
After a while.
At this time, Chen Yu's mysterious heart suddenly sensed a powerful fluctuation.
"It's coming!"
Chen Yu finished refining his body, stood up, and waited for the last opponent.
Whoosh ~
A powerful and berserk Demonic Qi spread out, and Chen Yu felt a sense of familiarity.
"Could it be him?"
Chen Yu had a guess in his mind.
The next moment, a burly man in armor walked over. His eyes were gloomy and fierce, and his expression was arrogant, as if he had absolute confidence.
This person was Shen Ji.
When he saw Chen Yu standing in front of him, he was stunned for a moment before a look of astonishment appeared on his face.
However, a grin appeared on his face as the ferocious glint in his eyes grew stronger. His body emitted an imperious demonic aura, causing black rays to be emitted, which combined into the illusionary figure of a giant demon.
His body and mind were boiling with fighting spirit!
"Chen, I didn't expect that my last opponent in the second round would be you!"
Shen Ji wore a bright smile on his face.
"I didn't expect it either."
Chen Yu's eyes darkened.
"You won't run away, right? Didn't you say a long time ago that if there was a chance in the Heaven's Chosen Ranking Battle, you must ask me for advice? "
"Now, your wish has been fulfilled. You have this opportunity."
Perhaps because he was in a good mood, Shen Ji said so much to Chen Yu.
In fact, he was worried that Chen Yu would use 055 marks to change his route.
If that happened, how could he vent his anger? How could he trample on Chen Yu?
"That's right, I do want to ask for advice, but I'll have to see if you have the capabilities first."
A sharp glint shone in Chen Yu's eyes as he glared at Shen Ji with a heavy physique aura!
Although they were from the same sect, Shen Ji's actions displeased Chen Yu.
Before the ranking battle, Shen Ji intentionally set up Chen Yu in front of Heavenly Jade Sect.
In the first round, Shen Ji even wanted to force him to hand over his mark!
"Alright!"
Shen Ji hollered, his voice as loud as a bell.
After confirming that Chen Yu would not run away, he did not say anything more.
Boom!
He hollered and the shadow of the demon behind him opened its mouth and roared as well. A soul-shaking demonic sound spread in all directions like the wails of ghosts.
Shen Ji attacked first. Not only could his attack increase his might, it was also accompanied by a mental attack that targeted Chen Yu's weakness!
If it was in the past, even if Chen Yu had the Jade of Four Souls, he would not be able to defend against Shen Ji's attack.
Buzz!
Chen Yu took out the Soul Fixation Pearl and infused his mental energy into it. A layer of dark light surged out and rapidly expanded, wrapping Chen Yu within.
The demonic sound swept over and caused a ripple on the dark light film, but it did nothing else.
"Soul Fixation Pearl?"
Shen Ji's eyes widened as he blurted out.
He had guessed that Chen Yu might have a defensive soul technique, but he did not expect it to be an extremely outstanding spirit artifact like the Soul Fixation Pearl!
Could it be a gift from the Solitary Blood King?
But the Soul Fixation Pearl was only a defensive tool.
Boom! Whoosh!
Shen Ji's body released a black demonic light, and the shadow of the demon behind him rose slightly, forming two huge black arms on both sides.
Boom!
One of the arms attacked from the right, grabbing at Chen Yu.
Above Chen Yu's head, the other black demonic claw pressed down with a momentum that covered the sky.
Facing such a situation, Chen Yu had to unleash his full speed to have a chance to dodge.
But sometimes, the best defense was to attack.
Chen Yu did not retreat or dodge. He fully activated the Mysterious Pattern Demonic Body, and the demonic tattoos on his body slowly slithered like black demonic snakes.
Demonic Destruction Claw!
Chen Yu took the initiative to rush out and meet the huge demonic claw above his head. He also used a demonic claw to fight it head-on.
The black and sinister demonic claw was covered in scales, and suddenly, a blood-red glazed flame was ignited.
Bang!
A hole was punched in the huge black demonic claw, and there were flames around it.
Immediately afterward, Chen Yu punched out, shattering the gigantic demonic claw into pieces!
Shen Ji was silent, but a gloomy and angry expression appeared on his face.
Boom!
He shouted, releasing his demonic primordial essence and demonic concept. The demon behind him and the shadow of the arms gradually completed, forming a huge demonic body with only the upper body. Boundless demonic might surged in all directions.
Facing an enemy like Shen Ji, how could Chen Yu hold back?
Furthermore, he had to win.
It had nothing to do with the Sect, and it was only for himself.
Suddenly.
A faint phoenix cry came from Chen Yu's body, and a trace of incomparably scorching pressure came from his body.
Shen Ji frowned slightly, and his blood flow stagnated.
In his vision, golden patterns suddenly appeared on Chen Yu's black body, like feathers, dazzling and beautiful.
In the next instant.
A vigorous flame power erupted from Chen Yu's body, forming a pair of golden flame wings on his back. A scorching wave of golden flames swept in all directions.
"Kill!"
Chen Yu shouted, and the instant he activated the Golden-Winged Phoenix bloodline, he took the initiative to attack.
His speed increased, and he used Demonic Dragon Imperial Shadow.
When he got close to Shen Ji, he clenched his claw covered in phoenix feather patterns and punched out.
Boom!
A heavy pitch-black shadow surrounded by a layer of golden phoenix flames and a layer of blood-colored glassy flames smashed towards Shen Ji with a scorching and domineering aura.
The aura that Chen Yu released instantly suppressed Shen Ji, and the latter felt even more pressure from that attack.
Shen Ji's eyes widened. He actually felt pressure from Chen Yu!
With a furious expression, he roared, "Apocalyptic Fiend Strike!"
Against enemies, he never defended; offense was everything!
The fiend phantom behind Shen Ji roared and crossed its claws, gathering a massive amount of fiend qi and Quintessential Essence before tearing out!
Boom! Rumble!
Two powerful and overbearing forces collided with each other.
Space trembled faintly and Shen Ji could not help but take three steps back, his blood flow surging.
However, Chen Yu did not retreat in the face of the powerful explosion. Instead, he charged head-first into it.
Suddenly, a sinister-looking bone sword appeared in his hand. The bone sword was pitch-black and there were nine bone spikes on it. The sound of bones rubbing against each other was chilling.
Swoosh!
The [Nine Bone Demon Spirit Sword] slashed across, leaving behind a huge black sword mark that was wreaking havoc, cutting the chaotic storm in front of him into two.
Facing the sudden attack, Shen Ji's eyes flashed with panic.
