Not long after, Elder Zhao returned. From his slightly displeased face, it was obvious that he had gone to verify the results of his trip.
When he returned to the rostrum, Xu Yingqu smiled and asked him, "How was it?"
Elder Zhao didn't reply, but turned to the ten people on the stage and nodded. "This competition will be carried out according to Elder Xu's rules."
After he said that, everyone's gazes once again fell on me.
It was different from the previous time's pure surprise. This time, most of the people's gazes were filled with schadenfreude.
It was obvious that everyone felt that I was done for.
I also started to mutter in my heart.
It wasn't that I was afraid. After all, they were just a group of children at the early and middle stage of the Glorious Knowledge realm.
The problem was that the evil sacrificial spirit couldn't fight. If I wanted to win, I would have to reveal my true cultivation.
I quickly calculated in my mind. With my current strength, not to mention revealing my cultivation, even if my identity was completely revealed, the people from the Corpse Sect wouldn't be able to stop me from entering the Tian Yin Cave.
However, the situation in the Tian Yin Cave was unclear and the people from Dragon Tiger Mountain were eyeing the Corpse Sect. If it wasn't necessary, I didn't want to reveal my identity.
However, if I didn't reveal my identity, how should I deal with the current situation?
After pondering for a while, I gradually came up with an idea.
Just as Elder Zhao was about to announce the start of the competition, I suddenly interrupted him. I turned to Chen Fenglin, who was standing not far from me, and said in a stern voice, "Chen Fenglin!
Today, you have repeatedly insulted me. Do you really think that I, Wang Lin, don't have a trace of bravery? "
My sudden voice stunned everyone. The first one to react was Chen Fenglin. Anger and embarrassment flashed across his face as he sneered. "Could it be that you know that you have no hope of winning this Large Competition, so you decided to make a scene?
Before, I thought you were my opponent, but now that I can't use my corpse puppet, you can't even be considered my opponent. Bravery?
Hehe, I don't care if you have it or not. "
As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Zhao frowned and said coldly, "Settle your personal grudges privately. Don't disturb the order of the tournament."
I turned my head to look at Elder Zhao and smiled at him, "Elder Zhao is right, we should settle our personal grudges in private. Chen Fenglin and I don't know each other, but today he has humiliated me over and over again, so I want to have a life and death duel with him!"
There were life and death duels in the Metaphysics Association and the Corpse Sect.
Moreover, unlike the Metaphysics Association, the Corpse Sect had always encouraged life and death duels. As long as one didn't challenge someone with a lower cultivation level, they could engage in a life and death duel at any time and place. Furthermore, the challenged couldn't refuse.
Hearing my words, the entire crowd was in an uproar. Elder Zhao, who was on the platform, opened his mouth and stared blankly for a long time. In the end, he smiled and took half a step back without saying anything.
Since he had expressed that he wouldn't interfere, the others naturally had nothing to say. Even Xu Yingqu frowned and looked at me in silence.
Since the elders didn't say anything, Chen Fenglin naturally didn't have the leeway to refuse. However, he didn't seem to want to refuse and just looked at me with disdain. "There's a road to heaven, but you don't want to take it.
Originally, I didn't think of you as an opponent, so I might have let you go.
But you, you actually want a life and death duel! "
"That's fine, then I'll help you!"
Chen Fenglin was so angry that he laughed and continued, "There's no need to look for a venue. Let's do it on this stage. What do you think?"
I didn't waste any words with him. I waved my hand and the Sacrificial Evil Spirit walked over.
Yu Wenming had specifically made a rule that corpse puppets weren't allowed in this tournament. However, he couldn't change the rules of a life and death duel, so he could still use corpse puppets.
Seeing that I was about to make a move, the other people on the stage tactfully left and cleared the stage.
Chen Fenglin didn't live up to his title as a prodigy. Seeing the Sacrificial Evil Spirit walk over, the disdain on his face instantly disappeared. He solemnly chanted an incantation. At the same time, his corpse puppet leaped out from behind him and walked towards the Sacrificial Evil Spirit.
Looking at his corpse puppet, I was slightly stunned. No wonder this fellow was so confident. Apart from his cultivation at the later stages of Glory of Consciousness, his corpse puppet was slightly stronger than him, faintly reaching the level of complete Glory of Consciousness.
If he hadn't met me, he could have easily gotten first place in the Second Era Group with just his corpse puppet alone.
It was a pity that his luck wasn't good. Just when I needed a scapegoat, he just happened to bump into me.
"Kill him." I ordered the Sacrificial Evil Spirit coldly.
At this moment, Chen Fenglin's corpse puppet walked in front of the Sacrificial Evil Spirit. After receiving my order, the Sacrificial Evil Spirit didn't give his opponent any chance. He didn't use any mystical spells and just extended his hand to grab the neck of the corpse puppet.
Immediately after, he raised his other hand and lightly patted the top of the corpse puppet's head. Instantly, the corpse puppet slumped to the ground. At the same time, a large amount of grey smoke floated out from its ugly mouth and nostrils. The Sacrificial Evil Spirit opened his mouth and swallowed all of it.
The Sacrificial Evil Spirit's actions seemed slow, but in reality, it was very quick. Until now, Chen Fenglin hadn't even used a single spell.
Moreover, he had obviously forgotten about the spell that he was halfway through.
He looked at the Sacrificial Evil Spirit blankly, his face filled with disbelief. It seemed that he couldn't believe that his corpse puppet had already turned into a pile of smelly meat on the ground.
The Sacrificial Evil Spirit didn't give him much time to think. After dropping the corpse puppet, he directly walked in front of Chen Fenglin.
At this moment, Chen Fenglin finally reacted. He didn't care about any spells or spells and desperately took out his black sword-shaped magic tool. He was panic-stricken and slashed at the Sacrificial Evil Spirit.
Chen Fenglin, who had lost his composure, couldn't withstand a single blow. The Sacrificial Evil Spirit's movements were almost the same as his palm. Chen Fenglin's frightened face froze forever.
After everything was done, the Sacrificial Evil Spirit calmly walked back and stood next to me like a cold Grim Reaper.
At this moment, everyone in the arena finally regained their composure. They looked at Chen Fenglin's corpse on the ground and kept silent.
After Elder Zhao on the platform gave the order, the Purple Zombie Cave's disciples on duty came and carried Chen Fenglin's corpse away.
Elder Zhao coldly looked at me as if he had seen through my intentions. Then, he ordered the tournament to continue.
The competition of the top ten became the competition of the top nine. When the eight people returned to the arena, the way they looked at me changed.
Although they couldn't use their corpse puppets to fight, their faces were still filled with fear.
Chen Fenglin was recognized as the strongest person in the Second Discipline Group, but even the strongest person couldn't withstand a single move from the Sacrificial Evil Spirit.
No matter how famous my corpse puppets were, they couldn't compare to the terrifying scene that was being displayed in front of them.
Looking at their expressions, I coldly smiled and directly said, "Senior Brothers, listen carefully. I am determined to obtain first place in this tournament. If any of the Senior Brothers blocks my path, I will fight to the death with them after the tournament is over!"
After busying myself for half a day and sacrificing Chen Fenglin's life, my goal was to frighten this group of people.
I didn't want to reveal my cultivation, but I also wanted to obtain the qualifications to enter the Heavenly Yin Cave. This was the only way.
Just as I predicted, after hearing my words, none of the eight Corpse Sect disciples dared to respond or refute me.
Not only them, but even Xu Yingqu and the others on the platform silently looked at the Sacrificial Evil Spirit with a trace of horror in their eyes.
Needless to say, I already knew what they were thinking. Chen Fenglin and his corpse puppets were at least at the peak of the Glorious Knowledge realm. Even an ordinary Heaven's Master wouldn't be able to deal with them as easily as the Sacrificial Evil Spirit.
In other words, they suddenly discovered that they weren't necessarily the Sacrificial Evil Spirit's opponent.
