Chapter 349 Sect Competition
The man collapsed in front of him with a thud. The elder was also a little stunned and bent down to ask with concern, "Are you alright?"
"Something has come up! I would like to trouble the elder to invite an alchemist."
Although his body was stiff and unable to move, and he lay on the ground looking disheveled, Helian Gu's voice remained calm, showing no sign of distress.
"Good!" The elder took out a jade slip, even though the high-level alchemists had gone to participate in the alchemist competition.
However, two alchemists were still assigned to the Foundation Establishment stage competition as a backup, although their ranks were not high!
Two alchemists quickly arrived and examined Helian Gu. They shook their heads, saying, "Sorry, this medicine is too tricky; we can't do anything about it."
"We can ask Junior Sister Cheng Jiu to come and solve this!"
"I'll handle this!" The young man, who had recovered considerably thanks to the elixir, stepped onto the stage: "His condition is my fault, and I can fix it!"
The elders on the horizon and Chang Yue also noticed the situation here. They looked at each other with satisfaction in their eyes.
They should give their all in competitions and face defeat with equanimity and without resentment. This is the true spirit of the Guiyuan Sect disciples.
After Qian Shuo took the stage, the elders and two alchemists voluntarily stepped aside, making room for him.
Qian Shuo placed his hand on Helian Gu's shoulder, circulated his spiritual energy, and immediately understood why he had lost: "Madman!"
Qian Shuo took a deep breath. He had no regrets about losing to this madman!
His spiritual energy was almost completely disrupted. If it weren't for the medicine he had given him, the reverse flow of spiritual energy alone would have been enough to give this madman a hard time!
Despite this chaotic state, the madman remained completely unfazed! Didn't his meridians hurt?
Although Qian Shuo was cursing and swearing, he still did not rashly undo the effects of the medicine.
In the current situation, the medicine is not harmful to Helian Gu, but rather beneficial.
It was precisely because the medicine he administered firmly locked most of the spiritual energy into the dantian that the disordered spiritual energy did not damage Hemigu's meridians and body.
Qian Shuo suddenly realized what was going on and remembered his senior brother's teaching that poison could also save lives, depending on the situation.
Isn't this exactly the case now?
He took out a Qi-Nourishing Pill and fed it to Helian Gu, then took out acupuncture needles to help him regulate his spiritual energy.
After calming his spiritual energy, he took out a palm-sized box with a blue crystal inlaid in the center from his pocket, opened it, and fanned it under Helian Gu's nose.
You can move now!
Helian Gu leaped up from the ground and stretched his body.
Well?
His body felt no lingering pain from using the secret technique, but rather smooth and comfortable. His gaze involuntarily shifted to the handsome and cool young man beside him, and he said with utmost sincerity and earnestness, "Thank you!"
Qian Shuo didn't even lift his eyelids. Don't think you can just chat with him like that. He only went on stage because he was drugged by him, not for anything else!
"You're really amazing! You must be an incredibly skilled alchemist!" Helian Gu didn't care at all about Qian Shuo's cold attitude. It's normal for an alchemist to have a temper.
The boy's tone was so sincere and earnest, and he was the one who had defeated him. Qian Shuo felt a sense of exhilaration, like eating frost on a hot day, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up.
"Don't think that just because you praise me, I'll treat you differently!"
"Can we add a communication link?"
Qian Shuo met Helian Gu's exceptionally bright eyes, tilted his head slightly. His communications weren't so easy to obtain, but, but, if he was so sincere!
"Thank you!"
Looking at the extra communication message on the jade slip, Qian Shuo felt a little regretful. Why did he agree so easily? And why was that guy so quick to act?
They were rivals before!
Qian Shuo couldn't understand it, so he snorted and turned to leave.
For some reason, I have a bad feeling, as if I'm being entangled in some kind of trouble!
Qian Shuo, who will be harassed countless times in the future: Alchemists should never befriend sword maniacs! And it's best to avoid body-bound barbarians as well!
Cheng Jiu felt that she and Yu Anxin were really destined to be together; Yu Anxin was the judge in both the preliminary and final rounds.
A burly man, two meters tall, with a strong build and a thick beard, walked onto the ring from the other side. His eyes, which were completely out of place with his strong physique, revealed an innocent and naive clarity.
The two stood facing each other. Kui Donghu stood in front of Yu Anxin, and the huge size difference made Yu Anxin look like a child!
In fact, the two are only two years apart in age!
Those who make it to the finals are all young geniuses!
Age may bring experience, but geniuses are those who break the rules.
"Both sides are in position, the competition begins!"
Judging from his physique, Kui Donghu was a cultivator and a disciple of the Supreme Elder. Not only was he burly, but he also possessed immense strength. His two giant hammers weighed tens of thousands of kilograms, making him an overwhelming presence among Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Large size often limits speed, but Kui Donghu is not. His speed is astonishing, and his movements are like a tiger descending the mountain, exuding an unparalleled ferocity and bloodthirstiness!
The moment the two met, Yu Anxin was almost knocked off the stage by this barbarian!
He barely managed to stay steady on the edge of the ring.
The next second, the bull roared in again! Its speed was simply illogical!
Yu Anxin moved nimbly, turning slightly to narrowly avoid the bull's attack.
The hand gripping the sword trembled with pain from the recoil!
We absolutely cannot confront this barbarian head-on.
A thought flashed through Yu Anxin's mind!
The disciples who supported Kui Donghu were all overwhelmed by his brutal and unparalleled aura during the competition.
Seeing that Kui Donghu had the upper hand in the first battle, cheers and support erupted instantly.
When Mengzi Shu and his support team saw that their invincible leader had actually lost the battle for the first time, they were extremely anxious.
He was mocked by the opposing supporters, and feeling anxious and angry, he rushed into the ring and shouted, "Boss, come on, defeat that barbarian!"
Yu Anxin waved to him, her footwork as agile as a cat, as if she were walking on a tightrope, carefully avoiding every collision from Kui Donghu.
His dark eyes observed his opponent's every move, waiting for an opportunity to attack!
After several failed attacks, Kui Donghu stopped charging recklessly and instead adopted a defensive stance, waiting like a big cat for his opponent to attack, hoping to seize the opportunity to strike and kill him in one blow.
Both sides are waiting and are moving around.
Both sides knew that every move they made was crucial against such a top-tier opponent!
A slight misstep could lead to defeat.
Therefore, they were all extremely cautious and dared not act rashly!
Although Yu Anxin is a super attacker who likes to attack, it doesn't mean she lacks patience.
Like a venomous snake, it waits for the right moment to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy!
Instead, Kui Donghu, unable to contain himself any longer after An Xin kept circling around, launched a fierce attack first!
His large size combined with his speed makes his attack power astonishing!
His feet slammed heavily onto the ring, causing huge cracks to appear even in the iron stones that made up the ring!
An attack will always have a weakness!
Yu Anxin's gaze was as sharp as a hawk's as she scanned Kui Donghu's body from head to toe. Where was he? Where exactly was he?
Soon, guided by instinct, Yu Anxin focused his attention on the area three inches above Kui Donghu's navel, his sword flashing like the wind!
Yu Anxin dodged Kui Donghu's heavy blow, but the strong wind grazed her cheek, causing a burning pain!
Kui Donghu dodged the fatal blow by sidestepping, the sword's edge slicing across his waist and abdomen, drawing blood. Cold sweat poured down his forehead! He was so close, so very close, to having a gaping hole in his body!
In their first encounter, neither side gained or lost, and both looked at each other with apprehension.
The disciples watching from the sidelines were all holding their breath during this exchange; every move and every stance was an ultimate test and contest.
The second confrontation began quickly, this time with Yu Anxin taking the initiative, as she was never one to prefer passive defense.
Only constant attacks are her preferred method.
Kui Donghu's physical cultivation is indeed extremely powerful! But his cultivation level means he will inevitably have weaknesses!
And her!
I saw it!
The bloodthirsty fangs have been bared, and even the fiercest tigers and the tallest giants will not be able to escape this exclusive hunt!
The wounds on Kui Donghu's strong body continued to increase. They were not fatal, but even a large number of ants could kill an elephant!
Blood kept seeping from the wound, staining his clothes red.
He tried to fight back, but Yu Anxin was too cunning and flexible, and his attacks never landed!
So now he's waiting, waiting for an opportunity to fight back!
Even though everything was going well and victory was within reach, Yu Anxin still had a vague sense of unease.
Her gaze fell on the giant bear in the center, which stood motionless as if it had given up all resistance!
That's why Yu Anxin felt vigilant!
The moment she drew near again, a terrifying aura erupted from Kui Dong-ho!
The surrounding air was compressed into a sonic boom in response to the sudden burst of power!
If Yu Anxin hadn't been on high alert and managed to escape swiftly at the critical moment...
Even so, he was still blasted away by that terrifying force!
A mouthful of fishy-sweet taste rushed into my throat, and my back felt like it was on fire!
"Roar!" Kui Donghu roared to the sky, pounded his fists together, and then attacked Yu Anxin at an even faster speed than before.
Yu Anxin was injured and almost got punched away!
Amazing!
A blood-red, bloodthirsty, inorganic eye came into view. Had it entered a state of outburst?
In this state, Kui Donghu is faster, stronger, and more agile. Yu Anxin can only temporarily avoid Kui Donghu's sharp edge.
escape!
Each attack can even produce a devastating impact, like shattered rocks.
Two streaks of light spun rapidly on the arena, making a series of banging and cracking sounds, which made it impossible for the spectators below to see the specific situation on the arena!
Kui Donghu's outburst was unexpected and took longer than An Xin had anticipated.
Her eyes narrowed slightly as she realized something was wrong while fleeing. Could it be that this guy hadn't even entered his burst phase at all?
But those terrifying, blood-red eyes seemed undeniably real!
We'll find out the truth once we try!
Yu Anxin slowed her escape slightly, just as he caught up and the attack arrived.
Turn around, draw your sword, and thrust!
Blood gushed from the hole, and a glimmer of clarity seemed to appear in those blood-red, lifeless eyes.
“Aside from that initial burst, you didn’t completely riot!”
"How did you find out?" Kui Donghu clutched the bloody hole in his waist, his face pale. Yu Anxin's counterattack was too fast, too sudden, and too precise.
"Time! Too much time has passed!" Yu Anxin smiled. "And I don't want to run away anymore!"
"You think you can win like this?" Kui Donghu struggled to sit up. "Don't underestimate me!"
"I know! You can't hold on much longer, right!" Yu Anxin stood a meter away from him, a distance from which even if he suddenly attacked, Yu Anxin would have enough time to react and dodge!
"I have plenty of patience!" Yu Anxin revealed a bloodthirsty smile: "You know I do!"
Kui Donghu paused, Yu Anxin's words were like the sharpest scalpel, tearing away his unbearable pretense!
He took a deep breath and closed his eyes: "Yes, you have it! Referee! I forfeit!"
Upon uttering the word "abstain," Kui Donghu swayed and collapsed to the ground!
Cheng Jiu: "I declare Yu Anxin the winner!"
After Cheng Jiu finished speaking, he walked up to Kui Donghu, reached out and grabbed the other's wrist to examine it!
No wonder Kui Donghu so easily gave up. Although that move was powerful, it also had many side effects. With his Foundation Establishment cultivation, he could only use it once at most!
With injuries and a severe blow, it's not just about barely finishing the match, but about damaging your foundation.
It's better to decisively withdraw and cut your losses in time!
Cheng Jiu gave him a pill, placed his hand on his shoulder, and gently channeled spiritual energy into his body to help regulate his body and accelerate the recovery of his injuries!
By the time she withdrew her hand, Kui Donghu's injuries had completely healed, and he was able to jump around freely again!
Yu Anxin glanced at Cheng Jiu in surprise. She knew all too well how serious the injuries on Kui Donghu were caused by her!
They recovered completely in such a short time!
Is this the number one alchemist of the younger generation?
I had heard of this senior sister's name when Yu Anxin left the mountain!
Ruiguaner!
The rumors about her being the youngest Nascent Soul Realm elder and the number one alchemist among the younger generation made her very curious about this legendary senior sister!
Whether it was the first time we met or the skill he's shown now, it all seems to confirm his claims.
Cheng Jiu noticed her gaze and smiled, "What's wrong?"
"Senior sister, I'm injured too, can you treat me as well?" Yu Anxin casually reached out her hand to Cheng Jiu.
A warm spiritual energy flowed into her body, soothing her throbbing injuries with healing power.
So comfortable!
Yu Anxin looked up slightly at her smiling senior sister in front of her.
Cheng Jiu met her gaze and blinked: "This is my responsibility."
Yu Anxin's heart skipped a beat, her ears turned red, and she felt the hand on her wrist was burning hot.
A sweet pill rolled down her throat, and Yu Anxin stared blankly at her senior sister in front of her!
Cheng Jiu smiled and withdrew his hand from feeding the pills. Meeting Yu Anxin's stunned gaze, he felt an itch to touch her head and unconsciously placed it on the head of his junior sister, who looked rather obedient. "Junior sister, your injury has healed!"
"Thank you, senior sister!"
"You're welcome!" Cheng Jiu withdrew his hand; it felt quite nice!
"Junior sister, something happened to Ding Yi on the arena!"
Upon hearing Senior Sister Chang Yue's telepathic message, Cheng Jiu immediately headed towards Ding Yi's arena!
Upon seeing Cheng Jiu approaching, the alchemist on the stage exclaimed as if he were a savior: "Make way! Elder Cheng Jiu is here!"
The disciples parted like the sea, clearing a passage large enough for one person to pass through!
Cheng Jiu also saw what was happening on Ding Yi's stage.
The fight on Ding Yi's stage was quite brutal. Yu Chengxuan, the favorite, collapsed to the ground lifeless after a spear pierced his throat.
The two alchemists stood around Yu Chengxuan in a panic, trying their best to maintain his life, but they could not stop it from fading away.
Senior Sister Chang Yue and the elder in charge of the arena firmly protected a young girl as she confronted Yu Chengxuan's uncle.
If they hadn't protected her so tightly, the girl would probably have been torn to pieces by these powerful beings who were grieving the loss of their loved ones!
