My Two-sided Cultivation: Starting From Collecting Experiences

Chapter 381 - 381 Chaotic Battle of Prodigies!

381 Chaotic Battle of Prodigies!

When the clouds dissipated, both the young lady and the burly man from the White Cloud sect were visibly taken aback.

What was initially a grand and formidable battle transformed into a close-combat encounter. Neither lacked combat experience, so when their bone patterns dimmed and failed to activate, they instantly engaged in a fierce melee. It was a pure clash of their blood essence combined with the activation of the ancient azure illusion scripture.

This was likely nothing more than an afterimage. In actual combat, it held little value. From their expressions and the appalling level of the ancient azure illusion scripture, they should be in the same group of newcomers as Qin Huai.

Given that two months had passed, even the most gifted genius would fail to cultivate the ancient azure illusion scripture to a degree that they could participate in a battle of their level.

Qin Huai, watching the now boring battle, quickly lost interest. The power they’d displayed earlier had allowed him to formulate his strategy should he fight them. But now, reduced to their physical bodies and blood essence, they posed no threat to Qin Huai.

The individuals behind the White Cloud sect and Hua Yanli wore frowns as they witnessed this development.

“The power of the bronze realm is truly unpredictable…”

“Our cultivation techniques, nurtured for over twenty years, vanished the moment the great slaughter began,” a young man behind Yun Qi lamented.

“What’s the point of this kind of slaughter?”

Yun Qi’s voice held a lazy tone as he responded, “The purpose is to select the heaven’s chosen – the one most compatible with the ancient scripture. From the moment we entered the bronze realm, every action taken by this world was towards this goal. It’s waiting for the chosen one it’s been anticipating.”

Yun Qi’s lazy gaze held a confident glint. “Those who comprehend the ancient scripture will gain recognition from this bronze realm. In the end, they will become the master of this world.”

And that person would undoubtedly be him, an even rarer king among the rare future kings.

“Could this bronze realm be a treasured weapon?” Greed flickered in the young man’s eyes.

“Perhaps it is, or maybe it’s something formed from some sort of supreme treasure,” Yun Qi speculated. No matter the outcome, the person recognized by the bronze realm would unquestionably be sought after by all forces in Qingzhou City. The truth was evident from the massacre in the bronze realm.

“No matter what, this bronze realm is an opportunity that belongs to us, the future kings!”

“The final victor will be chosen through our slaughter and competition,” Yun Qi declared in a leisurely tone filled with confidence. The future king tiers held the advantage in the battle, which implied that they would better comprehend the mysteries of the ancient scriptures.

Almost simultaneously, Hua Yanli’s eyes ignited with a blazing light, and the flames on his body dramatically surged. The sharp sword qi traversed dozens of meters and crashed down with astonishing flames.

“Good timing,” Yun Qi’s eyes lit up in response, and a faint Kirin phantom materialized around him.

The Kirin shook its head in disdain, its scales producing a subtle sound. It deflected the airborne flames which dissipated, scattering beneath everyone’s feet.

A single spark ignited the surrounding ground, causing it to erupt into flames. The reflected firelight lent a tragic aura to the battlefield.

The two future king tiers suddenly exploded into action. Their terrifying qi and blood surged, greatly surpassing the strength of the two who had battled previously. Their folding fan and long sword created a spectacular shower of sparks in the air, toppling the surrounding giant trees like wheat stalks under a scythe. The verdant grassland transformed into a desolate wasteland.

“A hundred feet fire source!” Hua Yanli roared.

The flames from the long sword in his hand flared, and circles of red ripples pulsated along the blade. As it swept past a giant tree, the tree was instantly cleaved in half. A burnt smell pervaded the air, and some individuals were inadvertently splashed by the ripples. Their heads fell off, charred.

As Hua Yanli brandished his blade, the red ripples changed in intensity — sometimes fast, sometimes slow. Like waves, the silent blade swept past, decapitating victims without a single drop of blood.

“There’s someone!”

The moment the tree above Qin Huai fell, both groups of people noticed him.

“Kill the outsiders first,” came the unspoken agreement between the White Cloud sect and Hua Yanli’s freelance cultivator group.

As soon as the decision was made, two individuals from each group charged at Qin Huai. The four were heaven’s favorites, the unattainable elite of Qingzhou City. They were top-tier experts with at least three fully activated patterns. Be it in vitality or technique, few could rival them.

Qin Huai assessed the four charging at him, their combined efforts effectively blocking his every move. Their eyes were locked onto his vital parts.

“As expected of an expert,” Qin Huai muttered, knowing he couldn’t evade this attack.

If he didn’t counteract, he was certain to die here. While not a permanent death, it would significantly impact Qin Huai’s future location. If he were with higher-talented individuals, his progress in the ancient azure illusion scripture would naturally be faster. Thus, he couldn’t afford to lose.

Qin Huai’s eyes ignited with resolve. The black threads on his head turned white instantly, and a domineering aura radiated from him, spreading out in all directions.

“King’s force!” the four of them roared. However, they continued their assault fearlessly, and their eyes gleamed with excitement.

“As expected of a genius,” Qin Huai murmured under his breath. If it were the Blood Poison Gang, most would have chosen to flee the moment he activated his king’s force.

Regardless, the result would be the same.

Qin Huai took a step forward, and two phantoms shot out to his left and right simultaneously.
