But soon, the man stored the banner into his Storage Ring, and Demonic Qi began to surge violently around him as he icily stared at Chen Qiu.
"Well, these little tricks have made you laugh."
"Next, brace yourself for my second form!"
"So far, not many people..."
His words cut off abruptly.
Chen Qiu launched a Divine Sense Attack, "Heart-piercing Stab," striking the Demon Cultivation Talent who had just been speaking about activating his second form. Imdiately, his eyes shut, his body stiffened, and he fell heavily backward onto the ground.
Then he entered a near-death state and was expelled from the Secret Realm. Enjoy new adventures from My Virtual Library Empire
"Hmm..."
Chen Qiu, with one hand supporting his chin, stood deep in thought. The banner's power had been decent, comparable to his green entry "Resentful Spirit Summoning," yet the resentful spirits in the banner fought more flexibly, even carrying overwhelming Demonic Qi that could induce illusions.
With this tactic, Yun City would certainly not be able to withstand it.
Destroying Yun City would be a simple task.
This was indeed one of the more formidable champions at the first layer of Golden Core, although he didn't know what this so-called second form was, nor why a Demon Cultivator would have a second form, but that form would surely be stronger.
But... it seed still no match for a single blow.
The defense of his opponent's Sea of Consciousness was nearly nonexistent. A single Heart-piercing Stab crashed through, effectively ignoring the Protective Spirit Qi. Without any defense in the Sea of Consciousness, it couldn't withstand it at all.
After waiting patiently for a few sticks of incense.
The third arena battle finally ended.
...
The fourth arena battle began!
Now only 27 people remained on the platform, one lucky individual at the peak of Foundation Establishnt had been given a bye, leaving 26 to face their opponents in the fourth round.
In this round—
Chen Qiu's opponent was, a young girl from the Hidden Family Liu Family's Golden Core.
Dressed in a black form-fitting bodysuit that showed off her figure, she was holding a dagger dripping with blood. Her eyes sparkled with excitent as she stared at him, her smile chilling to those around her as her voice mixed threats and provocation.
"Did you ever think of today when you killed my sister?"
"My sister just wasn't good at cultivating."
"Have you ever heard the saying, 'Magic Practitioners shatter on touch against the Shadow Family'?"
"Within ten paces, no one's dagger is quicker than mine."
"Hmm..."
Chen Qiu absentmindedly humd a syllable, his gaze fixed on the girl before him, obviously skilled in assassination and stealth. He tilted his head, pondering for a long while before nodding. "It seems you may have so misconceptions about Magic Practitioners because of so lesser-known ones in Da Xia Country."
"Never mind."
"You'll see in a mont."
...
anwhile—
At the seating area outside the Heavenly Realm Square.
The Sect Master of Warhamr Sect watched Chen Qiu face the Liu Family's Genius, his expression unreadable, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes. Although he didn't want to admit it, this Liu Family Genius was very skilled in close-range assassination.
This person had a technique for creating clones.
He could instantly create dozens of clones, then it seed he could swap places with any of them at will, making it impossible to predict where his dagger would strike from. Real and illusion intertwined, impossible to defend against.
Moreover, that dagger was clearly a treasure, inflicting heavy damage on Protective Spirit Qi every ti it struck.
Her Spirit Armor not only greatly reduced damage from spells but also ignored Divine Sense targeting.
In essence, a natural buster of Magic Practitioners.
Magic Practitioners rely on two tactics: Divine Sense to target enemies with spells and Protective Spirit Qi to block attacks, then using Divine Sense to counterattack. Yet, both were perfectly countered by the Liu Family's Genius.
Detection of the Liu Family's Genius was impossible, and with his ability to swap places with any of his clones and techniques like lting into shadows, spells could never hit the Liu Family's Genius.
Even though he wanted this Liu Family Genius to die,
he had to admit—
This ti, Chen Qiu might lose, not because Chen Qiu wasn't strong, but because he had just t the opponent who could best counter him.
"Such a pity."
He shook his head feeling sowhat regretful; if it weren't for this particular Liu Family Genius, Chen Qiu could have gone further and possibly beco an exceptional Genius in the end.
...
The Liu Family mbers sitting in the seats watched this scene excitedly, their lips involuntarily curving upwards.
The Liu Family was famous for killing Magic Practitioners.
In the Liu Family's eyes, dealing with Magic Practitioners, even those of higher stages, was easy; four of their passed down Heavenly Dao Terms specifically targeted Magic Practitioners.
The Sect Master of Caotian Sect looked towards the image broadcast above the square of the Heavenly Realm. He felt sowhat uncertain inside, although he knew Chen Qiu was strong and held a Fifth-grade Golden Core.
But Fifth-grade Golden Cores were rely a symbol of potential.
They could enhance strength, but only so much.
And that Liu Family girl was at the second layer of Golden Core, which already constituted a crushing superiority. This situation, combined with her natural suppression of Magic Practitioners, made the outco of the duel uncertain.
For a mont—
Most of the spectators shifted their gaze from the other arenas, focusing on the match between Chen Qiu and the Liu Family Genius, clearly curious about how this recently risen Magic Practitioner Genius would handle soone who completely overpowered him and was famous for killing Magic Practitioners.
Who would win and who would lose!
Would the reputation of the Shadow Family prevail, or would Chen Qiu continue his legendary Genius streak.
