C1777 The Selection Has Ended
Gu Ruoxu was just bluffing, and at the same time, maintaining a large swath of the Dark Wood Forest to attack the enemy, causing the spiritual energy in his body to be almost sucked dry.
Ever since he became the disciple of the Dragon Group's group leader, Gu Ruoxu could be considered as the heaven's favoured son of a human cultivator.
During the process of participating in the competition, his self-esteem was shattered time and time again. It was simply that he had some doubts about life.
Just when he was about to lose it, a familiar figure rushed in front of Kim Khagan and brandished his sword crazily.
The two parties were stunned at the same time.
"Isn't this the Traversing Sword Manor's Luo Qianqiu? Why did he make a false charge to deal with the Asura Ghost?"
"Is that damned fellow crazy? If there's any grudge between us, we should get rid of Mu Chen and the other two first. It's the wisest choice to pick a soft persimmon to pick."
The light of the treasured sword was inextricably linked, flowing along the skin of the golden Khagan.
If one was not careful, the skin and flesh would be cut open, so the other party could only withdraw from the forest and concentrate on the battle.
The remaining few Asura Ghosts were nothing to worry about.
Branches and vines wildly twined around them like a huge net.
Mu Chen had a relaxed expression on his face. He landed beside Gu Ruoxu and was about to start fighting side by side.
"It's really difficult for you to hold on for such a long time."
"Now that we have a powerful helper, we should have a fifty-fifty chance of winning against the Asura Ghost."
"How could His Highness the Heavenly King pull such an enemy over? The other party clearly already has the absolute advantage."
"Hahaha, no matter what, the products of the Biochemical Research Institute are trustworthy. Luo Qianqiu has already been controlled by the A.I. Chip."
Any order given by Mu Chen would be unconditionally carried out by the other party. Even if it was to get rid of him, it wouldn't be a problem.
Following which, the two of them rushed into the Dark Wood Forest.
Mu Chen's Son of Heaven Sword had been upgraded several times, and the damage it could cause was incomparable to the previous one.
Countless deep and shallow scratches appeared on the body of the Asura Ghost, but this was not all.
The softest part of the sword, such as the eyes, mouth and ears, was pierced by the sharp edge of the sword. Then, they saw these guys moaning in pain while holding their heads.
Mu Chen's chain of kicks ruthlessly kicked their stomachs.
The Shura was sent flying into the air by the powerful force. After that, countless ghosts stuck to their bodies like rubber candy, crazily absorbing the life force waves.
The scene in front of him made Kim Khagan furious. He wanted to rush over and save his subordinates.
However, the sword in Luo Qianqiu's hand formed a dense wave barrier in front of him. The space where the sword moved rippled. It could cause Kim Khagan's attack to deviate drastically, let alone charge over.
"Hahaha, the situation of using numbers to bully the weak has already been turned around. What other abilities do you have now?"
"I can't possibly have the Asura King personally come out and participate in the tournament"
"There's no need for you to be so proud of yourself here. The Asura World is about to once again be controlled by our tribe. No matter how powerful the allied beast race army is, they aren't the true masters of that spatial plane."
Golden Khagan quickly retreated several hundred meters, narrowly avoiding the entanglement of the branches.
The life force of the Asura Ghost lying on the ground was almost negligible. It was already dead for sure. He could only temporarily give up on attacking Mu Chen.
However, he was still confident in the negotiations between the Asura King and the upper echelons of Divine Might Sect.
"As long as I enter the expedition army of Divine Might, I will absolutely not allow my tribe to grow in the Asura World. No matter what methods I use, I will suppress all of you."
"I fear that your wish won't come true so easily, because I will also enter the Expedition Army. Even if I don't perform well in the competition, it won't be a problem"
With that, Kim Khagan rushed to the dark corner of Necropolis as fast as he could.
Luo Qianqiu's sword attack caused a series of explosions behind him, but in the end, it didn't land on Jin Khagan's body. He could only watch helplessly as Jin Khagan escaped.
The battle in the distance was also very intense. Through the explosions, one could determine that there were more than a dozen battlefields of varying sizes.
The corpses of the contestants were scattered all over the ground, causing the wandering spirits that were floating in the air to seem as if they had entered a buffet restaurant.
Black metallic powder wriggled and covered Mu Chen, Gu Ruoxu, and Luo Qianqiu's skin, allowing them to blend in with the dark background color.
"The number of contestants should be within three digits. I wonder how many people will be selected from Divine Might Sect."
"Don't worry. If nothing unexpected happens, His Highness the Heavenly King will be able to be selected successfully."
"There's no need to comfort me like this."
Mu Chen smiled and shook his head.
With the new bodyguard by his side, he was very confident that he could kill the other contestants and make it into the round with his strength.
However, Gu Ruoxu had a good grasp of strategy. The competition in front of him was not purely to determine the difference between cultivation base and strength, but to choose the contestant's dark background. It would also decide whether the expedition army would be able to carry out the mission smoothly in the Six Paths Space in the future.
"Because the beast race is only a battle mount, they are unable to participate in the selection."
"Letting the Asura Ghost join the expedition army is equivalent to having more backers and connections while carrying out missions in the Asura Realm. It will be even smoother."
"And as the only participant in the human realm, His Highness the Heavenly King is naturally selected. When the expedition army goes to the human realm to carry out missions, all information will be obtained from your hands."
Gu Ruoxu accurately judged the overall view of the Divine Might Sect.
At this moment.
A ball of light the size of a ball suddenly appeared in the dark sky.
When it landed on the contestants, they instantly disappeared. It must be the resting area of the Dark Temple.
The one who sent them away was the contestant approved by the organizer of the competition. There was no need to stay here and take risks.
This scene made others see hope of survival.
Countless figures broke away from the battle in front of them. They rushed towards the sky without any regard for their own safety, wanting to take the initiative to come into contact with these teleportation light clusters.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"
"Whiz, whiz, whiz..."
The movement speed of the ball of light was even faster than the sword qi. It was simply not something these people could touch.
The ghost's siege became even more intense.
They controlled the gravestones in the courtyard as weapons and swung them randomly at their targets.
Although the tombstones were not large, no one knew what kind of material they were carved from. They were at least a hundred tons in weight.
When they collided with the sharp swords and sabers, they were instantly sent flying. In the face of absolute strength, sword techniques were insignificant.2
