However, even if they lost this battle, they still had a chance.
There were a total of nine people, and five of them had the qualifications to enter the Ashen Eon Realm.
The rule set by the Northern Wei Empire was that one person would be given a bye, while the other eight would fight in pairs. The winner would directly obtain the qualifications to enter the Ashen Eon Realm.
As for the loser, they would fight for the last spot in the arena!
The loser was the sect master of the Imperial Beast Abode, Luo Lu.
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the Northern Wei Empire wanted to protect Luo Lu.
Luo Lu's cultivation level was the lowest among the remaining three people from the Northern Wei Empire. If he were to fight with Xuan Haoying or the Starfall Empire's Duke Qi, he would definitely lose. If he were to fight with the loser for a spot, even if it was a one-in-five fight, his chances would be higher.
Among the nine people, Xuan Haoying, Duke Qi, Fairy Luo Ying, and Kong Jianbo were all at the peak of the Heaven Origin Realm. The four of them did not encounter each other, so it was certain that they would enter the Ashen Eon Realm.
As for the last spot, the competition was the most intense.
The next day was also the last day of the Myriad Spirit Gathering.
Apart from the Heaven Origin Realm, the battles for the other realms would end at the same time.
There were more than a hundred low-level spirit cultivators who could be listed on the Northern Wei Empire's Mortal Ranking. In fact, it was the same as the Thunderblaze Empire's Hidden Dragon Ranking. They were all young geniuses.
The winners of the Spirit Pulse Realm and Spirit Aperture Realm could obtain large amounts of cultivation resources. Those at the Spirit Astral Realm and Heaven Man Unity Realm could receive guidance from Heaven Origin Realm experts.
Only the top five of the Heaven Origin Realm had the qualifications to enter the Ashen Eon Realm.
The Ashen Eon Realm was left behind by the Ashen Eon Sword Sage. Apart from the Northern Wei Empire's upper echelons, no one knew what was inside.
Therefore, the entire world's attention was focused on the arena today. Even the Thunderblaze Empire and the Starfall Empire, which were countless miles away, were paying attention to the outcome.
After entering the arena, Xuan Haoying patted Leng Shiqi's shoulder and said earnestly, "You defeated Wu Changyu and Young Master Concord. Your name has already spread far and wide. Relax your mentality. It's a rare opportunity to fight with a peak Heaven Origin Realm expert..
"I understand." Leng Shiqi nodded humbly.
Xuan Haoying liked Leng Shiqi's temperament very much. The outside world said that he was arrogant and domineering. After getting along with him for a few days, she felt that although Leng Shiqi's temperament was a little strange, all masters had their own temperament.
Moreover, Leng Shiqi was very reasonable and was not as bad as others said.
Ever since Leng Shiqi participated in the Myriad Spirit Gathering, no one thought highly of him. This was very similar to Meng Tiantian.
On the other hand, the two of them were killing all the Sky Origin Stage cultivators one after another. Everybody was shocked by what they had seen.
Before Leng Shiqi fought with Wu Changyu, everyone thought that he would lose miserably, but in the end, he won.
It was the same when he fought with Young Master Hehuan, and he won again.
Today, even if everyone still thought that he could not defeat the Heavenly Dipper Sect's Sect Master, Kong Jianbo, they still had a trace of hope in their hearts. What if he won again?
Therefore, there were people who opened a bet on Leng Shiqi outside and bet on him to win!
If Leng Shiqi knew about this, he would definitely praise this person for being a true warrior because even he did not have any chance of winning!
Unless he used all his strength, he had no hope of defeating Kong Jianbo.
Just as Xuan Haoying said, he could treat Kong Jianbo as an excellent sparring partner. This kind of opportunity was not easy to come by.
As for the qualification to enter the Ashen Origin World, he planned to snatch it from the arena.
The first match of the day was between Fairy Luo Ying and a Sky Origin Stage cultivator from the Starfall Dynasty. The result could only be described with one word — easy victory!
Fairy Luo Ying easily defeated her opponent in two or three moves. In the Northern Wei Dynasty, as long as the legendary Mystic Enlightening realm cultivators did not make a move, no one would dare to claim to be first if she said that she was second.
Such a powerful beauty was the most attractive. The hundreds of thousands of spirit cultivators in the arena became her admirers.
The second match was Leng Shiqi's turn.
After entering the illusion, Kong Jianbo was the first to speak. "The younger generation will surpass us in time. Don't say that I am bullying the younger generation. As long as you can injure me in the slightest, it will be your victory."
If someone else had said this, they would have thought that he was underestimating his opponent.
However, the person who said this was Kong Jianbo!
He was the number one body cultivator in the world. Not only did he have the strength to break through the void, but his physical defense was also invincible!
There were not many people in the world who could injure him.
Kong Jianbo formed a strange seal with his hands. His body suddenly expanded a few times, and the ground beneath his feet shattered inch by inch. His skin also turned into a bronze color, and an enormous aura, like that of a mountain, assaulted the face of everyone present.
The phantom of a giant mountain appeared, covering the sky and the sun. Its might was boundless.
"One of the ultimate techniques of the Heavenly Dipper Sect, Lofty Mountain Seal!"
"The Lofty Mountain Seal is known as the strongest defensive spiritual technique in the Falling Star Continent. With Kong Jianbo's cultivation at the peak of the Sky Origin Realm, no one can injure him unless it is a Tongxuan Realm cultivator."
"However, after using the Lofty Mountain Seal, his body will turn into a mountain, and his consciousness will be mostly sealed."
"I understand. He knows that Leng Shiqi's illusion technique is extremely strong, and is not weaker than Meng Tiantian's.
Kong Jianbo knows that his mental strength is his weakness. It would be better for him to seal a part of his consciousness and not give Leng Shiqi a chance. "
"That's right. Leng Shiqi can't injure him at all. As long as he can land a punch on Leng Shiqi, victory and defeat will be decided."
Leng Shiqi's expression did not change. The Buddhist light around his body shone brightly, and the Vajra Unbreakable Divine Art was displayed.
At the moment when the Buddha's light shone, an evil demonic aura rose up.
In the blink of an eye, he turned into a six-armed, two-winged demon. He was half demon and half Buddha. It was extremely evil!
The aura around his body rose again and again, completely surpassing the limits of the Unity of Heaven and Man Realm.
Not only that, Leng Shiqi's mind moved. Suddenly, boundless Netherworld Qi rose up in the illusion, and a heavenly Gate of Hell appeared faintly under the encirclement of countless evil spirits.
The Gate of Hell!
Immediately, all of the Nine Underworlds' power gathered on Leng Shiqi's body, condensing into an evil spirit's heavy armor!
Evil, Devil, Demon, Buddha, and other completely different powers fused together perfectly on his body.
Seeing this scene, the spirit cultivators and the Sky Origin Realm cultivators in the martial arts field were all shocked.
This Leng Shiqi had been hiding his strength until now!
Leng Shiqi suddenly punched out. The terrifying fist intent stirred the void, and a soaring domineering aura filled the heaven and earth, looking down on the world!
Kong Jianbo crossed his arms and closed his eyes slightly. He did not seem to have any intention of fighting back or dodging.
He actually wanted to take this punch head-on.
"Boom!!"
The Tyrant's Barrier's fist force landed solidly on Kong Jianbo's body. A powerful wave was suddenly emitted, causing the illusion to be distorted to a certain extent!
However, what shocked everyone was that Kong Jianbo was unscathed!
He stood in the same spot without moving an inch, and that terrifying fist energy didn't even move a single hair on his body!
Four words appeared in everyone's mind: invincible physical body!
