Chapter 154: Chapter 153 Please Enlighten Me!

The situation was irreversible…

This was Li Yao’s realization, and it was also the realization of most spectators outside.

No matter how strong Li Yao was, the six from the Sea God Dynasty had already lost their qualification to contend against the Fierce Sun Six Heroes.

Especially with Yang Fushuo’s move just now, it astonished everyone!

“I initially thought that this Yang Fushuo only had some talent in alchemy, and he would need to rely on others in this kind of competition, but who would have expected… he is now first in the rankings.”

“Your Immortal… Yang Fushuo can even use his alchemy technique as a forbidden technique? Wasn’t that move just now no worse than the Feng Family’s 10-person combo technique?”

“Is this what a proper alchemist should be doing?”

“Could it be a coincidence?”

“Impossible! Look at how skilled he is at escaping!”

In the Immortal Path rivalry, every one of the three competitions Yang Fushuo took part in was explosively impressive.

The first test, he flew up…

The second test, a furnace produced a Third Grade Elixir…

The third test, one furnace eliminated 16 contestants…

The Douyang cultivators were utterly baffled.

“I don’t remember anything like this happening in previous years… is it something I orchestrated?”

“Some Spiritual Birds are destined not to be buried, every feather on their bodies shines with brilliant light.”

Murong Ziyuan unusually responded with more than three words, which delighted the Douyang cultivator’s heart.

‘Does she have feelings for me?’

He then moved closer continually speaking playful words, only for Murong Ziyuan’s just-turned-up lips to revert to her usual icy demeanor.

“Oh.”

“Hmm.”

“I need to cultivate.”

Meanwhile, the most uncomfortable ones were the Sea God Dynasty’s people.

They had come aiming for the championship, and at this moment, Li Yao’s admission of defeat was something some of them could not accept.

“You can’t admit defeat! You still have your killer move, who knows whose deer it will be once your Ice Cold Eight Desolates comes out!”

“Since it’s not a life-or-death situation, let’s fight with all we’ve got!”

“Li Yao, I misjudged you! I’d rather lead the team myself!”

The eliminated teammates were not convinced. Having never been weaker than others in their lives, to end like this with an admission of defeat… they truly couldn’t accept it.

“This behavior of yours is only slightly better than those 16 pathetic fellows who got blown up! Fight!”

All 16 severely injured disciples turned their heads simultaneously, looking resentfully at the cultivators from the Sea God Dynasty.

Fei Wu, with an Immortal Pill in his mouth, mumbled unclearly.

“Presumptuous guy…”

But as coarse as the words were, the logic wasn’t flawed, and many also did not understand why there was a need to admit defeat at this stage?

“Fight with all we have. If we can take a few from the Fierce Sun Dynasty down, at least it would make Li Yao’s ranking look better.”

“The Daoist skills are ever-changing. Although the situation is overwhelmingly against us, what if we really could struggle out a ray of life?”

“You are Li Yao with the Heavenly Spirit Root after all!”

And at this moment, only Yang Fu, facing Li Yao, probably understood his intent.

“Li, you may speak freely.”

“Please, Yang, fight with me!”

“Whether we win or lose, we will surrender and directly quit this third test.”

The other cultivators from the same dynasty also sighed quietly upon hearing Li Yao’s words.

It was ultimately them who dragged Li Yao down.

Six of them couldn’t beat five of the others, and Yang Fushuo still had a trump card to play… there was no hope of winning between dynasties for them.

But Li Yao was different, he had absolute strength and was confident in suppressing anyone!

Even against the most powerful Yang Fu, it was not yet certain who would be the victor.

And they all believed that even with the help of a Third Grade Elixir, Yang Fu wouldn’t be able to beat the prodigy Li Yao.

At this moment, Li Yao didn’t want to go down like this, he wanted to take this opportunity to truly measure himself against Yang Fu, where they could battle without harming each other’s lives.

The first test lost by half a point, the second by two points.

He wasn’t convinced.

He, Li Yao, even if defeated, wanted to prove himself!

And Yang Fu was the only opponent he deemed worthy.

Li Yao didn’t say more, but his resolute eyes said it all.

Yang Fu understood.

Yang Genshuo also understood.

“Ah, Li Yao is indeed strong, but unfortunately, the last part… was under my control.”

The Fierce Sun Dynasty’s winning of the entire competition was mostly due to Yang Genshuo’s dual-management in these past few days.

Usually a day could mimic a year, but now Yang Genshuo occasionally sped things up. It took him three days to manage the entire competition and he had piled up a lot of Red Bull around him.

Even a martial artist with Body Refining fifth level couldn’t withstand three consecutive days without sleep.

He chugged a gulp of Red Bull and directed his instructions to the awaiting Yang Fu’s Manifestation.

“What were you thinking?”

The Manifestation of the ancestors, Yang Fushuo also saw it.

He said directly, “Why should we fight them one-on-one now when we can just claim victory? Let’s prevent any accidents! Our people from the Fierce Sun Dynasty are naturally straightforward. What if we get deceived by them?”

With these words, several of the old six from the Fierce Sun Dynasty nodded in agreement.

“Indeed.”

“We are like that.”

“Yang is right.”

The people watching outside: “???”

You six who cheat and ambush… straightforward?

Are you sure?

Li Xuyang covered his face, speechless.

“When this competition ends… I’m afraid the reputation of the Fierce Sun Dynasty will change.”

Fierce Sun Dynasty, always known for being generous and straightforward, somehow produced two individuals like Yang Fu and Yang Fushuo, particularly Yang Fushuo!

Watching his younger brother’s statements, Yang Fu paused for a moment.

“I want to try…”

He spoke to his teammates and even to the ancestors.

Yang Genshuo gave a nod.

“Alright! Let’s give him a chance! Let me also see what you’re made of.”

Encouraged by this, Yang Fu gave a few instructions to his teammates.

“Li, please.”

“Thank you, Yang, please!”

The other teammates distanced themselves from the two, leaving the final battlefield to the two strongest, watching them from afar.

This struggle on the Immortal Path had always left everyone with one question.

Is the gifted Heavenly Spirit Root Li Yao truly unrivaled, or is the unexpectedly emerging Five Spirit Roots cultivator Yang Fu even better?

The former represents the naturally recognized genius of the Immortal Cultivation World.

The latter represents what the Immortal Cultivation World deemed a useless Spirit Root, but Yang Fu possessed an exceptionally deep foundation, far surpassing his peers.

Through these days of observation, the Dharma Transmission Hall of the Cloud Hidden Spirit Sect had figured out Yang Fu’s cultivation technique, which was a highly niche method hardly ever practiced by serious cultivators over thousands of years.

“Five Elements Transfer Skill.”

Practicing the Five Elements with Five Spirit Roots, challenging five times the cultivation difficulty at the slowest speed of practice!

This technique was nearly impossible for Foundation Establishment!

No one knew who created this method in the past. It was a technique recorded in every dynasty, only practiced by Loose Cultivators who had no other techniques to learn, and they usually practiced just one of the Five Elements before switching to another technique at higher levels.

No one knew how Yang Fu had managed to train it, but his performance at this moment had changed everyone’s views on the Five Spirit Roots and the “Five Elements Transfer Skill.”

This duel, like an epic fate, silenced everyone as they held their breath for the impending moment.

Saying whether they were hopeful or not had become meaningless.

Every detail of the Immortal Path competition was witnessed by all.

The two were equally matched opponents.

Li Yao held a shuttle, within which water flowed and dazzled with spiritual brilliance.

“Yang, this shuttle, called the Water Cloud Shuttle, is a low-grade treasure bestowed by my sect. It allows my water technique to elude tracking and is extremely hard to guard against, so be careful.”

Yang Fu, with his fighting spirit rising, held the Glazed Fire Bottle with one hand and said calmly,

“Li, this bottle, the Glazed Fire Bottle, is also a low-grade treasure. It seals spiritual methods upon contact, so make sure I don’t injure you.”

“Additionally… I have consumed a Third Grade Elixir ‘Burning Spirit True Fire Pill’ to increase my spiritual power by 20 years, and a Third Grade Elixir ‘Flame Sun Ice Breaking Pill,’ reversing the Five Elements, using fire to overcome water.”

“I also have quite a few Talismans, Arrays, and other trump cards that I will use. My ancestor used to say, in a duel of magic… one fights with all one’s methods, and with so many magic treasures, this true self of mine is genuine.”

Li Yao nodded at Yang Fu’s frankness and his Qi had peaked.

“Good! Yang, please show me!”

“Water Cloud Shuttle!”

“Glazed Fire Bottle!”

A blue and a red stream of treasure light collided in the air, unleashing the power of low-grade treasures!

A blue mist like water and clouds, and a fire restrainers with a golden net, continuously devoured and obliterated each other while both of their spiritual powers poured out recklessly!

Spiritual powers surged, and the air twisted with light!

Water and fire are incompatible!

“Tidal Wave Technique!”

“Five Elements Spiritual Transfer!”

In this moment, their spiritual powers were evenly matched!
