No hope for eternal life

Chapter 291 Death or Life

Seeing that Zhuang Beihai took the initiative to attack, Xiang Ding did not dare to be careless.

"The Holy Elephant Collapses the Pillar of Heaven!" Xiang Ding used all his magic power to condense a huge pillar of magic light and crashed into Zhuang Beihai who was rushing towards him.

Just as Zhuang Beihai guessed, Xiang Ding had indeed practiced the secret art of refining his power, so his magic power seemed extremely strong. A simple beam of magic power was enough to crush most Nascent Soul cultivators.

However, Zhuang Beihai was obviously not among them. How could his strongest sword be blocked so easily?

"Crack." Zhuang Beihai's figure was like an arrow leaving a bow, moving forward courageously. His long sword cut through the Elephant Tripod's magic light column in an instant like a knife cutting tofu, and continued to attack the Elephant Tripod.

Xiang Ding's pupils shrank when he saw this, and then the elephant stood up, put its front paws together, and stepped forward fiercely, colliding violently with Zhuang Beihai's sword.

"Bang!" A powerful aura spread out from the point of collision between the two sides, and then both sides were repelled by the other's force.

Xiang Ding quickly stood still and spoke in human language: "Hahaha, it's a pity that your strength is still a little lacking."

In this battle between spear and shield, Xiang Ding did not have much confidence before the competition, but the result has proved that he is still better.

Then, Xiang Ding attacked Zhuang Beihai again. Since he already knew that his physical body was superior, he had no more worries.

Zhuang Beihai did not retreat, but chose to continue fighting the enemy with his sword.

On the field, Zhuang Beihai's sword energy kept moving back and forth, which seemed spectacular, but in fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the outcome of this competition was already decided, it was just a matter of time.

Zhuang Beihai did not give up. He continued to draw his sword, trying to attack the weak points of Xiang Ding's body, such as his eyes, nostrils, etc.

But Xiang Ding's basic skills were also very solid, and he was defending perfectly. He was also looking for Zhuang Beihai's flaws, hoping to deliver a fatal blow.

As time went on, both sides gradually showed signs of fatigue and had more and more flaws, but it was Xiang Ding who first seized the flaw and hit Zhuang Beihai's right arm holding the sword.

"Crack." Zhuang Beihai's right arm was broken instantly. After all, he was not a body cultivator and could not withstand the attack with his physical body.

Xiang Ding was overjoyed when he saw that Zhuang Beihai had lost one arm, and he shouted, "Prepare to die."

As he spoke, Xiang Ding had already pounced towards Zhuang Beihai, intending to kill his opponent in one go.

Zhuang Beihai looked at the wound on his broken arm and smiled helplessly: "Sure enough, there is no other choice."

The next moment, Zhuang Beihai's expression suddenly became sharp, and he used his only remaining left arm to mobilize the sword energy.

The sword energy that Zhuang Beihai mobilized at this time was not only his own sword energy, but also the sword energy he released during the previous competition. He had been fighting with Xiang Ding for so long, not only wanted to find the opponent's weakness, but also was accumulating power for this move, the sword energy of the absolute domain!

"Not good." Xiang Ding thought to himself that it was not good. The sword energy around him was surging. Although he didn't know what Zhuang Beihai was up to, Zhuang Beihai was doomed to fail. He had to be careful of the other party who might become desperate and try to die together.

So, Xiang Ding quickly retreated, wanting to keep a safe distance first and then see what Zhuang Beihai was going to do.

However, Xiang Ding soon discovered something was wrong. Zhuang Beihai's sword energy was actually hindering him, causing his speed to drop significantly.

At the same time, Zhuang Beihai rushed towards the Elephant Cauldron at the fastest speed.

"He just wants to self-destruct and die with me." Xiang Ding was shocked and understood Zhuang Beihai's intention. How could he be willing to die with Zhuang Beihai? He immediately wanted to escape frantically.

However, in the sword energy field of Zhuang Beihai, the Xiang Ding was like being stuck in a quagmire. The more it struggled, the weaker it became. It could not escape at all and could only watch Zhuang Beihai pounce on it.

The biggest problem with a monk committing self-destruction and dying together is that it takes some time to prepare, and the opponent will often escape during that time.

It was precisely based on this problem that Shangguan Qiong, who created the Wuyou Secret Art, deliberately added this move to the secret art. She also gave this move a name, called "There is Death but No Life"!

"Boom!" The power of a Nascent Soul cultivator's self-explosion was many times greater than that of a Golden Core cultivator. The competition venue within a radius of fifty miles was filled with Zhuang Beihai's self-explosion.

The Elephant Cauldron was the first to be hit. No matter how strong his body was, it was quickly turned into ashes under the impact of the self-explosion. Both sides died together!

"The demon clan wins." Ao Jia announced expressionlessly. At this point, the score has reached five to one. If the demon clan wins two more games, there will be no need for subsequent competitions.

"Alas!" Mu Changsheng sighed. Zhuang Beihai took the Elephant Cauldron away before he died, but he still felt sad. He remembered Zhuang Beihai's heroic appearance at the God Protecting the Country Pride Conference, and he also remembered Zhuang Beihai and him talking about their mutual love for Lin Yu.

Among the six competitions, three were games of mutual destruction. This was a little different from what Mu Changsheng had expected, but it was just as cruel and bloody.

"Mu Xun, be careful, don't die together with your opponent." Mu Changsheng warned Mu Xun. He was very confident that Mu Xun would win, but he was worried that Mu Xun would be dragged down and killed together with his opponent.

"Yeah." Mu Xun nodded slightly, holding the black sword in his hand, and slowly walked off the stage.

Xia Rong was also here. She came here to comfort Mu Changsheng and the other two, but she found that Mu Changsheng and the other two did not need to be comforted at all. They seemed full of confidence.

Xia Rong couldn't help but ask Xiang Muchangsheng curiously: "What do you think is Mu Xun's chance of winning this time?"

"Conservatively speaking, there should be at least an 80% chance of winning." Mu Changsheng replied. If he wasn't worried about some unexpected situations, Mu Changsheng would have said it was a sure win.

"Oh?" Xia Rong was a little surprised, especially when the human race was suffering from a series of defeats. Even though she knew that Mu Xun was Yi Qianhuan's adopted son, she couldn't understand why the winning rate could be so high and so certain.

Then, Xia Rong asked again: "What about you? What is your chance of winning?"

"It should be about the same as Mu Xun." Mu Changsheng still spoke conservatively, not daring to say anything for sure.

"I hope so. If you can win, you still have a good chance of winning this competition. In the competition at the Spirit Transformation Realm, we humans have a huge advantage. We have hope of winning all four games." Xia Rong said expectantly.

"I understand." Mu Changsheng nodded slightly. He also knew that the human race had a great advantage in the Spirit Transformation Realm. That was related to the human race's secret art of clones. In terms of the secret art of clones, the demon race had always lagged behind the human race.

Back to the topic, as Muxun appeared, his opponent also appeared: "Lion Clan, Lion Leap."

With the order from referee Ao Jia, the seventh match officially began.

At the beginning of the competition, Mu Xun stood still, waiting for Shi Yue to make the first move.

Shi Yue didn't hold back either. He threw out two talismans with both hands. Obviously, he was also a talisman master.

The two talismans transformed into two majestic lions in mid-air and attacked Muxun fiercely.

Seeing this, Mu Xun activated the Di Yuan and Tian Yuan secret techniques at the same time, empowering himself, and swung out two sword energies to easily shatter the two talisman attacks.

"Talisman master." Mu Xun showed a smile. Because of Mu Changsheng, he knew a lot about the talisman master's methods. And judging from the attack power of the talismans, the grade of the two talismans just now barely reached the initial stage of the fifth grade, which posed no threat to him at all.

Shi Yue frowned when he saw that Mu Xun easily resolved his attack, feeling something was wrong. He had known in advance that his opponent was a swordsman, but he did not expect that his opponent was so strong.

In fact, Shi Yue's methods could not completely restrain Mu Xun. The reason why he was chosen to fight was actually very simple, that is, the high-level officials of the demon clan were not optimistic about this competition.

After all, Mu Xun is Yi Qianhuan's adopted son, and no one can say what skills Yi Qianhuan will teach Mu Xun.
