Not too far away, Jang Tae-soo saw the intimacy between the two. His expression immediately became even gloomier. He already had some resentment towards Ling Jian. When he saw that the two of them were still so intimate, the anger in his heart immediately surged.
After all, his purpose of coming here this time was not simply to obtain a slot to enter the Ghost God Abyss, but to establish a good relationship with Zhang Ling Er. Who knew that he would have the opportunity to pursue Zhang Ling Er in the future? Such a thing would happen.
"The Zhang family won this battle."
At this moment, the voice of the Ouyang Family Head finally rang out. Then, everyone's gaze turned towards Ling Yun. Their eyes were filled with shock and fear.
In the area where the Ouyang Family was located, following the words of the Ouyang Family Head, a few Ouyang Family disciples hurriedly stepped forward and came to Ouyang Jie's side. After carefully observing the situation, the latter didn't seem to be in any danger. Only then did they heave a sigh of relief.
After all, even though Ouyang Jie couldn't be considered an outstanding genius of the Ouyang Clan, he was still a genius of the Ouyang Clan. In the future, he would have a great chance of breaking through to the Heavenly Dao Stage. If there were any other problems here, it was likely that for the Ouyang Clan... It would be a great loss for the Ouyang Clan.
Ouyang Hai was seated on the seat of honor in the Ouyang Clan's territory. However, his expression was extremely unsightly. It was so gloomy that it felt like water was about to drip out of his face.
Ouyang Jie and Ouyang Ying were ranked second only to him in the Ouyang family. Initially, he had thought that two people would definitely shine this time. However, who would have thought that the two of them would actually be defeated by the Zhang family in a row?
"Even Ling Yun here is so powerful. I wonder what that Ling Jian whom he respects is like?"
Ouyang Hai said indifferently, his eyes cold.
On the platform, after Ling Yun defeated his opponent, he did not choose to leave the platform immediately. Instead, he stood there quietly, expressionless. However, if someone was paying attention, they could see that Ling Yun's face was still slightly pale.
Although this wasn't the first time Ling Yun had used Frenzied Bull's End, this spirit technique was still a Heaven grade spirit technique. It consumed a huge amount of spirit energy, even with his current cultivation level. After using it once, it also caused a huge burden on his body.
Although there was still a trace of spirit energy left in the Skysoul Manor, it was barely enough for him to use it once more.
"The second match of this round will still be between the Zhang and Ouyang Families. The two families will send people forward"
Not long after, the Ouyang Clan's voice rang out once more.
When Zhang Ling Er heard this, she looked at Ling Jian with her beautiful eyes and said slowly, "Will you be participating in this match?"
"It's still him." Ling Jian shook his head and had no intention of going up.
Zhang Ling Er frowned slightly. Previously, Ling Yun had used a heaven-grade spirit technique. Now, the spiritual energy in her body was almost depleted. If she continued to fight like this... No matter how strong his combat power was, there was a high possibility that he would be eliminated.
However, even though she was worried about stopping him, her understanding of Ling Yun wasn't as deep as Ling Jian's, so she naturally didn't ask further.
The news of Ling Yun choosing to fight again quickly spread.
Almost everyone stirred up a lot of waves around the platform after hearing this news.
This was because such a thing had never happened in the previous years, not to mention this year.
Most importantly, Ling Yun was only at the Second Heavenly Layer of the Heavenly Spirit Path. This kind of battle achievement was enough to make many cultivators at the same cultivation level blush with shame.
At the same time, after the Ouyang Family Head's words were said, the Lei Family's troops quickly appeared on the platform.
However, when everyone saw the person on the platform, their pupils couldn't help but constrict.
This was because the person on the platform was actually the number one genius of the Lei Family, Lei Qinghai.
"Lei Qinghai? Why is it him?"
"Lei Qinghai is the number one genius of the Lei Family. I didn't expect him to come up to the stage so quickly. His combat strength is almost undefeatable in the Lei Family."
"I thought he would be the last one to go up on stage, but I didn't expect him to be the first."
"I'm afraid that Ling Yun is going to lose this time. Lei Qinghai is the number one expert of the Lei Family. Even though Ling Yun's combat strength is also very strong, I'm afraid he won't be able to withstand it this time."
"According to what I know, among the younger generation of the Lei Family, it seemed like no one had succeeded in cultivating a heaven-grade spirit technique. If Lei Qinghai didn't have any trump cards... I'm afraid he won't be able to withstand Ling Yun's attack this time. "
"Not necessarily. Ling Yun used a heaven-grade spirit art once. Now, it's impossible for him to continue unleashing the power of this move. Looks like he's going to lose this time."
...
In an instant, all the cultivators in the surroundings started to boil up, and started discussing the two different outcomes.
Some supported Ling Yun, and some also felt that Ling Yun would fail this time.
On the platform, Lei Qinghai quickly landed on the opposite side of Ling Yun. He didn't look down on Ling Yun, so when he appeared on the opposite side of Lei Qinghai, he immediately sensed his opponent's weakness.
"Since you're already here, why aren't you attacking?" Ling Yun said indifferently, even though he knew that he was weak. He could sense that... Lei Qinghai was much stronger than Ouyang Jie. However, he wasn't afraid of him.
The gazes of all the cultivators below the platform were attracted by Ling Yun. They could naturally tell that Ling Yun was prepared to fight.
This was not only a huge surprise to them. They did not expect that Ling Yun would still be able to maintain such a state in the face of Lei Qinghai.
However, Lei Qinghai didn't intend to fight with him. Instead, he sat cross-legged on the ground opposite Ling Yun and started cultivating.
"I don't want to take advantage of someone's weakness. You should recover first. We will only attack fair and square when you recover." Lei Qinghai smiled. However, his words immediately caused the surrounding cultivators to boil even more.
No one had expected Lei Qinghai to do this.
Even Ling Yun himself did not expect Lei Qinghai to have such a side to him.
Fortunately, Ling Yun was not a stubborn person. When he saw Lei Qinghai sitting cross-legged on the ground cultivating, he did not hesitate too much and immediately chose to recover.
The two of them meditated on the platform just like that. If people did not know about this scene, they would have thought that the two of them were good friends who had known each other for many years. Now, they were appreciating each other.
At this moment, the surrounding cultivators also started to become restless. Each and every one of them discussed animatedly. Obviously, they didn't expect such a thing to happen.
"This Lei Qinghai is really confident."
"He wants Ling Yun to recover and then have a battle of equal strength, right?"
"Why do I feel like these two are not prepared to fight with him at all?"
...
The cultivators on the surrounding platforms began to discuss amongst themselves, feeling that their actions were a bit strange.
If it was someone from the Ouyang Clan, they would definitely not let go of such a good opportunity. Amongst the three great clans, the only one who could make such concessions was the Lei Clan.
Ling Yun, who was the one involved, didn't take the discussions of the cultivators around the platform to heart. He was already in the midst of cultivating and recovering the spiritual energy that he had used up.
After about half an hour, Ling Yun slowly opened his eyes on the platform. He stood up and walked towards Lei Qinghai.
Half an hour was naturally not enough for him to recover to his peak. However, if he were to use the Heaven Spiritual Technique again, the spiritual energy consumption could still be completed.
Around the platform, because of Ling Yun's actions, almost all the cultivators turned their gazes over. They were very concerned about the battle that was about to erupt.
After all, one of the two sides of the battle only had a cultivation base of the Second Heaven of the Heavenly Spirit Path. However, he had successfully cultivated a heaven-grade spirit technique because of this. The other person was Lei Qinghai, the number one genius of the younger generation of the Lei Family, one of the three great families of the Divine Wilderness City.
If these two were to clash, who knew how great the impact would be? Everyone was filled with anticipation.
"You've already recovered? Are you sure you won't recover any more? In your current condition? " Lei Qinghai frowned as he looked at Ling Yun, who had already stood up. Naturally, he could see that Ling Yun had yet to truly recover.
"You are indeed very strong, but I have no intention of fighting you." Ling Yun looked at Lei Qinghai and said slowly.
Lei Qinghai frowned when he heard that. Then, he looked at Ling Yun doubtfully and said, "Then what do you mean?"
"We'll deal with the other party in one move, right?" Ling Yun thought for a moment and said.
Everyone frowned upon hearing this. All of them felt a wave of shock.
Isn't this young man's tone a little too arrogant?
One had to know that Lei Qinghai was not someone at Ouyang Jie's level. If he continued to treat Lei Qinghai as though he was facing Ouyang Jie, he might suffer a crushing defeat.
Ling Yun naturally did not know what these cultivators were thinking. However, he knew that Lei Qinghai was even more difficult to deal with than Ouyang Jie.
The most obvious difference between the Second Heaven of the Heavenly Spirit Path and the peak of the Heavenly Spirit Path was naturally the amount of spiritual energy stored within the Heavenly Spirit Mansion.
If both sides were to engage in a prolonged tug of war, Ling Yun would have no advantage at all.
He might as well turn his disadvantage into his ultimate advantage, which was to unleash his most powerful attack and allow his opponent to receive all of his power.
"Is the outcome decided in one move? Alright, I agree to this request." Lei Qinghai laughed heartily. A victory and defeat in one move was exactly what he wanted.
Seeing this, Ling Yun didn't expect Lei Qinghai to agree so quickly. This caused his heart to become even more serious. Previously, Lei Qinghai didn't immediately attack but gave him enough time to recover. Perhaps Lei Qinghai was also thinking of ways to resist his Heaven grade spirit technique.
After all, no matter how high the level of the spirit technique was and how powerful it was, it would still depend on the person who used it. If it was Lei Qinghai who used this heaven-grade spirit technique, the might that erupted would similarly be even greater.
"Today, regardless of whether you win or lose to me, my Lei family will still admire you. If you are unable to obtain the qualifications to enter the Ghost God Abyss, come to my Lei Clan. I will give you a spot. " Lei Qinghai looked at Ling Yun and said, it caused a commotion among the surrounding cultivators.
Many cultivators looked at each other in dismay. Regarding the quota to enter the Ghost God Abyss, as people of the Tai Huang Heaven City, they knew how difficult it was to enter the Ghost God Abyss. They did not expect Lei Qinghai to give a slot to an outsider who had nothing to do with Lei Jia as soon as he opened his mouth.
When the upper echelons of the Lei Family heard Lei Qinghai's words, some of them frowned. Even they felt that the number of slots in the Ghost God Abyss wasn't enough. How could they give one to an outsider for no reason?
However, in the area where the upper echelons of the Lei Clan were, only one person had a look of admiration on his face. This person was naturally the current head of the Lei Family. Not only did he not feel that Lei Qinghai's actions were inappropriate, but he also felt that there was something wrong with Lei Qinghai's actions. Instead, he felt that Lei Qinghai was too good at doing things.
Ling Yun was only at the Second Heavenly Layer of the Heavenly Spirit Path, yet he was able to successfully use the Heavenly Spirit Technique. His future achievements would naturally be limitless.
If he could exchange for a genius with extraordinary potential with just a slot to enter the Ghost God Abyss... No matter what, it wouldn't be too much of a loss. After all, these geniuses were all geniuses with extraordinary potential. If they were able to achieve great things in the future... The value of this favor would double.
As the head of the Lei Family, he was also very clear about this.
However, Ling Yun was not in a hurry to reply to Lei Qinghai's words.
Although today's competition between the three families was nearing its end, if Ling Jian were to make a move, the Zhang Family would definitely be able to obtain first place in the competition. Naturally, Lei Qinghai's words would not have a chance to come true.
"I need to prepare."
Ling Yun looked at Lei Qinghai, who seemed to be waiting for his reply, and suddenly shouted at him in a low voice.
At the same time, he clenched his fists tightly, and the vigorous Spiritual Energy in his body instantly erupted. Then, it all poured into his fists, and at the same time, an extremely majestic and overbearing Spiritual Energy instantly spread out.
This aura had yet to lock onto him, but it caused Lei Qinghai's eyes to suddenly become serious.
He hurriedly circulated the spirit energy within his body, and in an instant, the spirit energy within the spirit vein frantically gathered, like a river converging in the sea.
Boom!
Ling Yun's fist let out a series of rumbling sounds. At the same time, an illusory bull head appeared above his fist. That bull head looked extremely real, as though it was alive.
Lei Qinghai had been watching this scene the entire time. When his gaze landed on that illusory bull head, he revealed a trace of a bright light.
"As expected of a heaven-grade spirit technique. I never expected it to possess such a spiritual nature." Lei Qinghai narrowed his eyes. There was excitement on his face, as well as shock.
Currently, the strongest spirit art he had cultivated was only a high-grade spirit art. As for a heaven-grade spirit art, there was naturally one in the entire Lei Clan. However, this was something he was unable to come into contact with.0
"Let me try out the power of your heaven-grade spirit art." Lei Qinghai roared loudly, and his eyes revealed a burning desire to fight.
Seeing this, a sharp glint flashed across Ling Yun's eyes. With a loud roar, he threw a fist and charged towards Lei Qinghai.
"Crazy Bull's End!"
Ling Yun rushed over and roared loudly, even though Lei Qinghai gave him a pretty good impression earlier. However, he did not hold back. Instead, he chose to go all out because even he wanted to personally verify it. The true power of Crazy Bull's End.
"Haha, you've come at the right time." Lei Qinghai laughed loudly, and the battle intent in his heart was instantly aroused. Originally, he wanted to test the power of the Heaven Tier Spiritual Technique. However, when faced with Ling Yun's punch, he did not show any signs of retreating. Similarly, he threw a punch at Ling Yun.
"Great Devil Flame Fist." Lei Qinghai let out a low roar, and a shocking amount of spiritual energy immediately surged out from his fist. Following that, a black flame burned on his fist. It was strange and unpredictable.
This was Lei Qinghai's high-level spirit art, the Great Devil Flame Fist.
The fist contained the might of the Devil Flame, and it was said that one would definitely hit the fist when cultivating it. One had to draw the Devil Flame into one's body. Merely the pain that one had to endure was not something that an ordinary person could accept. Those who could do it were all people with extremely high temperaments.
At this moment, the fist that seemed to have come out of the flames immediately collided with Ling Yun's fist.
Boom!
The two terrifying energy attacks didn't even get close to each other before the space around them started shaking.
After a moment, the two fists directly collided. The two energies both forced the two of them back, and they flew backwards in different directions.
Countless pairs of eyes gathered around the platform. Many pairs of eyes gathered on the two of them. If this place was outside, it might not affect anything. However, both of them were currently within the platform. Regardless of whether the other party still had some strength left, but if they left the platform, it meant that they had failed.
Not long after, Lei Qinghai stabilized his body. His feet lightly tapped on the ground several times, but there was still some distance between them and the edge of the platform.
On the other hand, Ling Yun's body shot towards the periphery of the platform like a cannonball. At this moment, there was no expression on Ling Yun's face. He did not deliberately control his body. Instead, he allowed himself to fall ruthlessly downwards.
Hua!
The surrounding cultivators who were watching the battle were in an uproar at this moment. Although Ling Yun and Lei Qinghai had only exchanged blows for an instant, the power that erupted from it was quite terrifying.
Many cultivators felt pity for Ling Yun. They felt that Ling Yun must have been knocked down on purpose. If Ling Yun had not been thrown down so casually, they would have already witnessed a battle that was rarely seen in a hundred years.
However, Ling Yun had already been blasted down. This meant that the battle between the two of them ended in Ling Yun's defeat.
"As expected of the number one genius of the Lei Family. This Lei Qinghai is indeed powerful."
"He must have used the Great Demonic Flame Fist earlier. This is a Spiritual Grade High Rank Spiritual Technique. Its power is indeed astonishing."
"The helper invited by the Zhang Clan isn't bad either. If it wasn't for the huge gap between his cultivation base and Lei Qinghai's, it would still be hard to determine the final victor of this battle."
