"This power, this power …"
"How can this move be so horrifying?
Is this a move that a warrior of the Fifth Tribulation can release? "
"How come I feel this power is so familiar?"
"It seems to be … the presence of Origin Energy!"
The stands outside were in an uproar. At first, at least half of the tens of thousands of people were watching the fight between Lu Li and Hua Tiandao. The other fights were not interesting and there was no suspense.
Many people wanted to see Hua Tiandao make it to the next round. They wanted to see the most powerful warrior they had chosen enter the Top 5.
There were many lords on the stand and they were no strangers to Origin Energy. At first, they were a bit surprised, but as more and more people acknowledged it, more and more doubted it. Soon, everyone was sure that Lu Li's move contained Origin Energy.
Origin Energy was a symbol of the Emperor Realm. It was the Origin Energy of a world.
It was the Origin Energy of a world nurtured in an Emperor Realm. It was the purest and most powerful force in heaven and earth.
Origin Energy was the ultimate dream of many warriors. Having Origin Energy was equivalent to breaking through the Emperor Realm, stepping into a new world and becoming the most powerful being in the world.
But today, they sensed the presence of Origin Energy in the move of a warrior of the Fifth Tribulation. It was shocking and unbelievable.
Tens of thousands of people were talking about it. It was like tens of thousands of ducks were quacking. It was so noisy that it was dizzying.
There were all kinds of analyses, guesses, exclamations, and conspiracy theories. Some even claimed that Lu Li had cheated and that he should be disqualified.
The Emperor Realm warriors had known this. None of them said anything. Shadow Queen didn't say anything either. She just used psychic power to check where Lu Li's Origin Energy was coming from.
Did Old Demon Wind use a skill to suppress the Origin Energy in Lu Li's body?
"Swish, swish ~"
Hua Tiandao came to his senses as well. He swung his saber forward. A tornado was formed and it whooshed toward Lu Li's ray of sword light.
At the same time, Hua Tiandao made another move. A black ray of sword light whooshed out. A jade shield appeared in his hand.
He stared at the ray of sword light and his palms were sweating. This was an attack of Origin Energy.
"Whoosh, whoosh ~"
The tornado whooshed on and collided with Lu Li's ray of sword light. Unsurprisingly, the tornado collapsed. Compared to Lu Li's seemingly average ray of sword light, this powerful move was so weak that it was shattered easily.
The power of the saber light weakened slightly as it continued to fly forward, colliding with the black saber Qi released by Hua Tian Dao.
At first, Lu Li's Innocent Talisman and the ray of sword light were destroyed by the black sword energy. But now, the tables had turned. The black sword energy was destroyed and the ray of sword light was weakened again. But it was still moving toward Hua Tiandao at a horrifying speed.
"Buzz ~"
The jade shield in Hua Tian Dao's hand lit up and released a dazzling divine light. It quickly grew in size and blocked in front of Hua Tian Dao. The white blade light fiercely struck the shield.
Boom!
The jade shield was engraved with runes and there was a sense of ancientness. Clearly, it was an ancient artifact. However, it could not withstand Lu Li's sword ray. It was destroyed in an instant and turned into dust.
However, after the Blade Qi broke through the shield, it almost disappeared. In the end, it struck Hua Tian Dao's armor, but it was unable to tear through it.
"Phew, phew ~"
Hua Tian Dao took a deep breath to calm down the blood in his throat. He had used two moves and a jade shield. He had three layers of protection and only then did he manage to survive Lu Li's attack. How powerful was the source energy?
"How am I going to block it later?"
Hua Tian Dao's expression was grave. He ran away quickly and thought at the same time.
Lu Li, on the other hand, mobilized a strand of source energy to his legs, which sped him up. He went after Hua Tian Dao in a blur.
Since he had been exposed, it didn't matter to him. Nobody could tell who he was based on source energy alone. After all, apart from the higher-ups of the Heaven Emperor Sect, nobody else knew that he had built a State of Dharma.
Therefore, he was fearless. He had nearly 10,000 strands of source energy in his State of Dharma, which meant that he could release nearly 10,000 attacks, which was enough for him to use for a long time.
When he was closer to Hua Tian Dao, Lu Li made two moves with his saber, one on the left and one on the right, cutting off Hua Tian Dao's escape routes.
The two moves were also infused with source energy. Both were powerful and fast.
"Sh * t!"
Hua Tian Dao cursed. He was hesitant at first, but he dared not to hesitate anymore.
First, he made two moves, releasing two strands of black sword energy to attack Lu Li's two rays of sword light. Then, he took out a piece of artifact.
This artifact was given to him by one of his forefathers for protection. That forefather told him not to use it unless he was in mortal danger. That forefather had spent tens of thousands of years to make this artifact. If it was damaged, it would be gone.
It was a white, transparent bead. After Hua Tian Dao poured in divine energy, the bead grew in size. A small hole appeared in the bead. Hua Tian Dao snuck into the hole and entered the semi-transparent bead.
"Boom!
Boom! "
The two rays of sword light hit the two strands of sword energy. The two strands of sword energy were destroyed quietly. The ray of sword light went on and hit the semi-transparent bead respectively.
"Boom!"
The bead was smashed away. It was glaring but soon, the glow dimmed down and the bead was smashed away.
What surprised Lu Li was that the bead didn't explode.
"What is this?
Is it a Sovereign Weapon? "
Lu Li was taken aback. If it was a Sovereign Weapon, then it would be troublesome. He would not be able to crack it.
That being said, he sensed no energy that was unique to Sovereign Weapons. It must be a piece of valuable artifact.
"Let's see how many times you can withstand my attacks with that stupid bead."
Lu Li went after Hua Tian Dao. He made three moves in a row. Three rays of sword light poured out and landed on the bead again.
Once again, the bead glowed brightly and was smashed away.
"Still not cracked?"
Lu Li's eyes were wide open. Though the bead was not a Sovereign Weapon, its defensive ability could be compared to one. Average artifacts could not withstand it.
"How come he has so much source energy?"
Hua Tian Dao, on the other hand, was about to cry. The bead was a piece of valuable artifact. It was as valuable as an average Sovereign Weapon. If Lu Li made a dozen more moves, the bead would explode and Hua Tian Dao would suffer a great loss.
"Why is his source energy coming out from the pellet?
How can a pellet contain so much source energy?
Isn't he afraid that the pellet will explode?
By then, Feng Wuding will be vaporized into nothingness. "
Many Great Emperor Realm warriors were concerned. They had been secretly trying to find where Lu Li's source energy was stored. However, they could tell that the source energy came from the pellet.
More importantly, so many Great Emperor Realm warriors, including Shadow Queen, could not detect Lu Li's pellet with psychic power. Therefore, they were confused.
Even if Demon Feng had used some special means to force the source energy into Lu Li's body, it shouldn't be in the pellet.
Also, Lu Li had made so many moves. How could Lu Li's pellet store so much source energy?
It was inexplicable.
"This kid is very strange!"
