C831 Secret Exposure
The second round of the Heavenly Sovereign Selection continued. As there was a selection every five hundred years, the strongest Eighth Layer of Heavenly Monarch Stage who qualified to participate this time was the strongest Eighth Layer of Heavenly Monarch Stage.
This didn't mean that there were no experts at the ninth or peak of the Heavenly Monarch in the No Name City. It was just that they had already been selected in the early stages, so they couldn't participate this time.
The beginning of the second round surprised everyone. When the two Eighth Layer of Heavenly Monarch Stage experts met, they thought that it would be a huge battle, but they didn't expect that the two of them would actually react in such a manner. One of them was defeated without even fighting.
Immediately after that, the people behind continued to compete on the stage. This time, Lin Yue drew the number fifteen.
He looked over and saw a short and skinny man looking at him. The bamboo stick in his hand was the 15th.
Lin Yue nodded slightly at him.
A hint of disdain appeared in the short man's eyes. He was a Heavenly Monarch Fifth Layer, and he thought that he was two levels higher than Lin Yue. He believed that victory was within his grasp.
He had no idea that Lin Yue was hiding his true cultivation base, so he was full of confidence.
Lin Yue didn't seem to mind when he saw the expression on the man's face.
Soon, it was their turn to go on stage.
"This time, I bet on Thin Monkey winning!" Someone said.
"Haha, is there anyone who wants Lin Yue to win? No one wants to bet, right?" Some of the spectators said.
Skinny Monkey was the alias of the short and skinny man. As for his real name, not many people remembered it.
"I bet ten middle-grade Rank-6 Pill on Boss Lin winning!" Tan Loong said.
Seeing that someone was blocking Lin Yue's way to win, everyone's interest was piqued. In a while, the compensation rate had reached 1: 20.
"Boss Lin will win. You will all cry." Tan Loong coldly snorted.
Seeing so many people,
He was very unhappy that Lin Yue was going to lose.
"Tan Loong, I know you want your boss to win, but you can't let your emotions affect your decisions. These ten Pill, they won't be yours in a while. Just don't feel sorry for them, haha." Someone said with a laugh.
"Hmph, just wait and see." Tan Loong said.
At this moment, Thin Monkey and Lin Yue cupped their hands together. The atmosphere became tense.
Immediately, the skinny monkey unleashed all of his energy. Spiritual energy surged like waves, and a powerful pressure pressed down on him, wanting to strike first.
"Eh?!"
He was a little surprised, because his pressure didn't have any effect on Lin Yue.
Right at this moment of shock, Lin Yue attacked.
With the Dragon-slaying Sword in his hand, his Qi erupted in an instant. A powerful Soul Suppression was unleashed, and at the same time, the sword Qi was unleashed.
The skinny monkey had never thought that he would be struck by the sudden powerful Soul Suppression. He felt a headache coming on, and he could only instinctively swing his sword to defend against the sword Qi.
However, at this moment, a huge palm print covered half of the sky, and it slammed down with a loud bang!
The skinny monkey hurriedly took out his defense, but he was still struck by the Dao Palm.
The entire high platform shook violently a few times. The firm profound stone trembled, and dust filled the air.
The crowd below the stage was in an uproar. This had far exceeded their expectations.
When the dust settled, they saw the thin monkey climb up from the ground. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth as he rubbed his head with one hand.
Lin Yue. Yes. The Soul Suppression was just too powerful, causing his head to still hurt.
He waved his hand and stopped the competition.
Although he didn't suffer any serious injuries, he knew that he was no match for Lin Yue.
"Haha, I told you, my boss is the best!" Tan Loong laughed loudly as he kept the bet.
Only now did everyone come back to their senses, and their faces were filled with shock.
"A Fifth Level Heavenly Monarch warrior who isn't even a hundred years old!" When they saw Lin Yue's cultivation base bursting out, they fiercely sucked in a breath of cold air.
Such cultivation speed really made them feel inferior.
"Interesting." An elder sitting next to Leng Chen said, "This kid's combat strength is so powerful. It seems like no one at the same level as him is a match for him."
"It should be more than that." Leng Chen smiled, "His strength and mental strength far exceeds those at the same level. Perhaps he can fight those at a higher level."
"Even if that's the case, I'm afraid that there won't be much of a chance for him to enter the Heavenly Sovereign selection this time." An elder said.
"Not necessarily, let's take another look." Leng Chen said.
The crowd below the stage was shocked by Lin Yue's performance. Those beautiful girls who had lost interest in him after knowing his background were once again very enthusiastic.
With such talent in cultivation, even if he couldn't enter the Heavenly Sovereign Selection this time, there would definitely be no problems after five hundred years.
For a Heavenly Monarch warrior, five hundred years wasn't a long time.
With Lin Yue's cultivation talent, once he was selected, he would be heavily nurtured, and he would definitely soar into the sky!
"Skinny Monkey is too weak. He actually gave up after being beaten down, causing me to lose ten Pill and fifty thousand merit points." Someone said in a vexed manner.
"You are willing to bet and admit defeat. Look at your behavior. You don't look like a Heavenly Monarch warrior." Someone said with disdain, but his heart was bleeding because he had also bet that Lin Yue would lose just now.
"This low grade ascendant from Spirit Domain is too strong. He is actually a Heavenly Monarch Fifth Layer warrior. He has hidden himself too well. What bad luck." Someone muttered.
Han Zifei was still in shock. Lin Yue's performance had far exceeded his imagination.
"Could it be that he obtained the inheritance in Residence Ruins?" He guessed.
Back then, Lin Yue was trapped by Wang Zangloong and the Dark Bird Snake. Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to survive, but in the end, he left unharmed.
Now that he saw his cultivation base improve so much in such a short period of time, he must have obtained some kind of fortuitous encounter. The most likely possibility was the Divine Devil Cave.
This was the only way to make sense.
Qian Yuhan was even more certain this time that Lin Yue must be from the Divine Devil Clan and had obtained the inheritance!
She bit her lips, as if she was making a decision.
Lin Yue returned to his seat from the arena. The people around him also changed from looking down on him to admiring him.
No matter what, a strong person was worthy of respect!
After a moment, Lin Yue suddenly frowned and looked at Qian Yuhan.
He had just received a message from her divine sense. The content of the message shocked her greatly.2
She didn't expect that Qian Yuhan would actually be able to guess that he belonged to the Devil God's bloodline, and that he would use this as a threat to make her use of the Pill to seal his mouth.
This secret absolutely could not be revealed to more people.
After making up his mind, he got up and walked to the side, arriving at a secluded place.
After a while, Qian Yuhan walked over.
"Lin Fellow Taoist, I have made myself very clear. I wonder how you have considered it?" She said plainly, "Although the devil race is powerful, I believe that many people don't want to see a devil with heaven defying cultivation speed. If I reveal this secret to the outside world, what would the consequences be? You should know very well "
"How did you guess I was a Fiendgod?" Lin Yue asked.
"The reason why I am the only one who knows this secret is because when I opened the defense mechanism of the Residence Ruins, I found out that it can be easily opened. This means that among the few of us,... One of us is from the bloodline of Gods and Devils. Adding on the fact that your combat power has increased dramatically in such a short period of time, the reason is... It should be because you've received the inheritance."
Lin Yue didn't expect that he would be discovered in such a short period of time.
When she opened the seal, she seemed to be in a difficult situation. It seemed like she had other plans as well. She was indeed a good schemer.
"I don't want many things, and this isn't too much for you." Qian Yuhan said.
"Not too much." Lin Yue smiled and activated the Divine Demon Tower at the same time.
When Qian Yuhan saw Lin Yue's expression, he thought that Lin Yue had agreed and relaxed a little.
However, at this moment, she suddenly felt her whole body tighten. She was actually restrained by Lin Yue's powerful mental strength.
She couldn't even make a sound. She saw Lin Yue's hands condense into a seal, and he pointed at her glabella!
