Chapter 843 - 329: Tier Two Tournament Ends, True Meaning of Fire Achieved!!
In the quarterfinals of the tournament.
Her opponent was a Tier Two Peak Divine Chosen, exceptionally skilled in controlling highly poisonous vines, using cunning and vicious tactics.
This person had once strangled dozens of strong opponents of the same tier with poison vines.
The match began.
Countless vines, covered in barbs and glowing with a ghostly green toxic light, surged from the ground like living creatures.
Instantly transforming most of the arena into a jungle of poison.
They coiled and struck towards Wei Banmeng.
Wei Banmeng’s gaze was icy cold.
Buzz! Buzz!
The Profound Qilin Double Blades were drawn in an instant.
This time, the blade light was not just sharp.
A vast and terrifying chill descended abruptly.
"Profound Qilin · Icebound Miles!"
With Wei Banmeng’s clear command, the twin blades slashed in a cross.
Two Chi Dragon phantoms roared out.
Where they passed, the air instantly froze.
Crackling——!
The terrifying cold currents swept through the entire arena.
The wildly dancing poisonous vines were covered in a thick layer of ice at a speed visible to the naked eye the moment they touched the cold.
Even the ghostly green toxic light on them was completely frozen.
The entire arena seemed to transform into a world of ice sculptures in an instant.
The sneer on the Divine Chosen’s face froze instantly, and his body became stiff and sluggish from the extreme cold spreading over him.
His eyes were filled with extreme horror!
He wanted to summon power to resist, but the Qi Blood and Qi Force within him seemed to freeze.
Wei Banmeng’s figure moved like a ghost through the frozen forest of vines.
The cold blade lightly touched the opponent’s stiff throat.
"Surrender, or die."
The cold voice was like icy frost.
"I... I surrender!"
The Divine Cultist, feeling the bone-chilling cold and murderous intent at his throat, shouted hoarsely without any hesitation.
"Arena No. 1, No. 77, ’Jinghong’ wins! Advances to the top four!"
The audience erupted.
"Icebound Miles! My heavens! What kind of Martial Technique is this?"
"Divine Armament... It’s definitely the power of Divine Armament!"
"This ’Jinghong’... must be from the Federation! Only the Federation’s top families can cultivate such a genius, and possess such a powerful Divine Armament."
"Hmph, running dog of the Federation, coming to our City of Injustice to show off!"
Admiration, worship, jealousy, hostility...
All kinds of gazes intertwined on Wei Banmeng.
...
In the semifinals, four to two.
Wei Banmeng’s opponent was equally strong.
A Tier Two Peak Divine Cultist who had mastered the Fire Divine Technique to perfection.
This person summoned a sky full of flames right from the start, transforming into a Heaven-Burning sea of fire, attempting to completely engulf Wei Banmeng.
However!
Facing these all-consuming flames, Wei Banmeng once again employed Profound Qilin · Icebound Miles.
The ultimate Power of Ice clashed fiercely with the Heaven-Burning Flame.
The clash of ice and fire erupted into an earth-shattering storm.
In the end, it was still the Divine cold authority of the Profound Qilin Double Blades that held the upper hand.
The overwhelming sea of fire was forcibly frozen and extinguished.
The Divine Cultist was also invaded by the cold within, collapsing with a blue-purple face on the frost-covered arena.
"Arena No. 1, No. 77, ’Jinghong’ wins! Advances to the finals!"
...
Finally, standing on the other side of the final arena.
Was a figure wearing a pure white faceless mask.
His posture was upright and balanced, his aura steady as a mountain, standing there as if one with the arena beneath his feet.
The Faceless Brotherhood.
This organization, the smallest in the Ten Great Forces.
Yet famed for its ferocious combat capacity and cryptic members.
"Final match: Arena No. 1, No. 77 ’Jinghong’ Wei Banmeng! Against, No. 1 ’Faceless’ Bai Ye!"
"The match begins!"
As the referee’s voice fell.
The entire arena fell into a peculiar silence.
Tens of thousands of spectators held their breaths.
All eyes focused on the two figures in the arena.
Bai Ye did not immediately attack, his pure white mask devoid of any features turned towards Wei Banmeng, an amiable and clear voice emerged through the mask:
"Your strength is impressive, and your saber technique is intriguing. Would you like to join our Faceless Brotherhood? We do not exclude those from the Federation."
Wei Banmeng’s cold gaze fell on the mask of the opponent, and he slowly shook his head, "Sorry, I already have an allegiance."
Bai Ye did not seem surprised, just nodded slightly, his tone with a hint of regret, "That is indeed a pity."
He slowly raised his right hand, fingers spread, palm facing Wei Banmeng.
An aura as thick and profound as the abyss slowly rose.
"Please exert your full power."
As the words fell.
Bai Ye’s figure suddenly blurred.
There was no earth-shattering momentum, just a sheer speed taken to the extreme.
Only a faint afterimage remained in place, the real body already appearing like a teleportation to Wei Banmeng’s left side.
Fingers like a blade!
The fingertips were entwined with the ultimate dark golden Gang Qi, tearing through the air, carrying a piercing whistle, stabbing straight at Wei Banmeng’s vital side.
This strike had already surpassed the usual Tier Two Peak scope.
Wei Banmeng’s pupils slightly contracted.
The Profound Qilin Double Blades instantly crossed to his side.
Clang!!!
A piercing clang of metal on metal.
The dark golden Finger Aura fiercely struck the junction of the crossed blades.
An overwhelming terrifying force surged forth.
Wei Banmeng only felt his arms tremble violently, Qi Blood surging, his body uncontrollably sliding back several steps, leaving two shallow marks on the solid arena beneath his feet.
What powerful strength, what concentrated Qi Force...
After striking successfully, Bai Ye did not pause, his figure disappeared once again.
Like maggots attached to the bone, launching a flurry of attacks from all kinds of cunning angles.
Fingers, palms, fists, legs!
Every attack contained terrifying power capable of shattering stone and splitting tablets.
Angles cunning and vicious, while the speed was overwhelmingly fast to the point of dazzling the eyes.
