Gao Wu: Become stronger by grinding Erlang Shen's talents

Chapter 595 Lin Qisheng! (Seeking monthly votes)

"Clang clang clang!!"

In an instant, their figures blurred, like two bolts of lightning colliding in the air.
The audience could only see the golden threads and cyan arcs constantly intersecting and colliding.

The collision of metals continuously generates oscillating waves that spread outwards.

"So fast!"

"What a powerful force!"

Through repeated clashes, Liu Ming was secretly shocked; this opponent was even stronger than he had imagined.

Not only does it possess speed capable of keeping up with its own, it also possesses terrifying strength.

Every genius who awakens three abilities has no weaknesses.

Strength, speed, and defense are all extremely high; there are no weaknesses.

After awakening their three abilities, they further honed their strengths, making their advantages even more apparent.

For example, the power of the Flowing Corpse, and the speed of the Flowing Nether.

But this opponent made him feel that he was in a tough spot.

Its strength and speed are both extremely terrifying.

It's almost keeping up with its own pace.

This discovery filled Liu Ming with both surprise and delight; he was delighted to have encountered such a formidable opponent.

Lin Qi was also surprised.

He had witnessed dozens of Liu Ming's battles; the opponent's swordsmanship and power generation were extremely refined, unlike anything he had ever seen before.

His sword strikes were incredibly fast, and they didn't follow a straight line; instead, they swung in perfect arcs.

Each strike connects like a splitting arc, each strike faster than the last, with extremely tricky attack angles.

"clang!"

Another collision ensued. Lin Qi felt Liu Ming's battle blade and spear slash past each other, forming an arc, and he used the force to unleash an even faster strike.

"clang!"

The sword struck him, and Lin Qi felt a sharp pain in his neck, followed by the sound of metal clashing.

It was a sword slashing at his neck, but he possessed [Vajra], his skin as hard as Vajra, so ordinary attacks could no longer cause him any harm.

"What kind of swordsmanship is this?"

Lynch sensed that things were getting tricky.

As expected of the strongest genius of the Flowing Blade Civilization, the opponent fought against five opponents in a row during the competition to support the civilization, and each round was against the strongest genius of their respective civilization.

They were all galaxy-level geniuses, and they won with an undefeated record.

They were indeed no ordinary opponent.

……

In the stands of Xia Kingdom, countless people were completely focused, yet they could only see afterimages.

"It's too fast, we can't even see their fight clearly."

"I could only see a few afterimages. They are too strong. This is like gods fighting."

"If an ordinary person were to face them, they would most likely be beheaded instantly."

"What's the situation now? Who has the upper hand?"

……

Liuren Civilization's player seats

Tianren smiled; Liuming was the strongest disciple he had ever encountered.

They cultivate the sword technique created by the strongest warriors who emerged from their home planet during the Flowing Blade civilization's wars—the "Silent Wind Formless Blade."

Silent and stealthy, the blade moved like a ghost, swift as the wind!

Silent Wind is a famous wind phenomenon on Flowing Blade Star. It is extremely fast and can continuously borrow momentum to become increasingly powerful.

It's a terrifying natural disaster!

Today, the strongest members of their Ryujin civilization have created a sword technique manual based on natural disasters, which is famous throughout the Triangle Star.

Through continuous improvement, it is now the strongest sword technique manual in the entire Ryujin civilization.

Liu Ming is a person from the most traditional Liuren civilization. The abilities he awakened in his eyes are all wind-attribute, which is most compatible with "Jifeng Wuxiang Dao".

It can fully demonstrate the power of this sword technique.

It seems that Liu Ming has gained the upper hand now, and it may only be a matter of time.

"Liu Ming is going to win!"

"As expected of Liu Ming, he is indeed powerful. His nickname is 'Flowing Blade Without Form'!"

"The natives of Earth cannot win."

The other contestants were also excited upon seeing this; in their view, Liu Ming was destined to win.

……

On the Blue Star players' seats.

The God of War, clad in a black robe, couldn't help but speak:

"Liu Ming's strength is indeed extraordinary. His sword technique is exceptionally exquisite. You can see the techniques of entangling, dispelling, unloading, and arcing."

"Some of them I can't even tell."

"Even among five-star secret manuals, it is the most top-tier."

"Even if you've watched combat videos, you're still likely to be at a disadvantage in a real fight because you've never actually fought one."

"Lin Qi's defenses are so airtight and watertight, that's really impressive!"

"His marksmanship has broken through to the late stage of the fifth rank, surpassing many ninth-level martial artists."

"If we don't work harder, they will surpass us."

The other ninth-realm warriors nodded; Lin Qi and Liu Ming were too powerful, putting a lot of pressure on them.

The Crimson Emperor, observing the battle in the arena, made his judgment:
"Lin Qi will win this match!"

His voice wasn't loud, but everyone around him heard it clearly.

The others immediately smiled, as if Lin Qi had fallen into a disadvantageous position.

Since the Crimson Emperor said Lin could win, then he really could win.

Sun Sheng leaned back in the smart chair, crossed his legs, and said:

"I've fought that guy Lynch twice, and I know him well. He's incredibly cunning."

"Liu Ming thought he could win, but he was destined to lose!"

Jiang Tao nodded and said, "Unless you can crush Qi Ge from the very beginning, the opponent will be the one to lose!"

……

in the arena.

Lin Qi's [Golden Eyes] ability has been brought to its limit; watching videos and experiencing it firsthand are completely different experiences.

It operates with three capabilities: super vision, energy perspective, and high-speed capture.

Countless cyan traces appeared, like streaks of cyan light, combining to form circles.

"What exquisite swordsmanship!"

Lin Qi couldn't help but sigh, the secret manual was top-notch, and the opponent's swordsmanship had also successfully broken through to the late stage of the fifth rank.

In addition, his unparalleled agility and physical attributes make him far more powerful than others.

Even with his seemingly impregnable defense, he found an opening and landed several blows.

Two marks have already appeared on the black and gold armor.

Lin Qi's lips curled up, and he felt his body getting excited.

Such an opponent is indeed formidable.

However, defeating it would be even more satisfying.

This should end now!
"clang!"

In an instant, a golden arc of light slashed out and struck Lin Qi's neck.

"Pfft~"

The knife successfully exposed Lin Qi's wound, breaking his defenses.

Liu Ming's eyes lit up.

It's breached!!

good chance!
He instantly unleashed his full power, his entire body surging with strength and radiating a brilliant blue light.

"Buzz!"

The blade trembled, stirring up the airflow, and the powerful energy condensed into hundreds of blade shadows, each one real.

Meanwhile, his own battle blade was also instantly charged up, with the enhancement of his domain power reaching its peak.

Lin Qi sensed intense danger; hundreds of sword shadows, each more powerful than a simple sword technique.

If you hit yourself repeatedly, even the [King Kong] will have its defense broken.

So he swung his spear, and a golden shield appeared around his body, like an impenetrable steel wall.

“Ding ding!!”

Countless blade shadows struck the protective shield, shattering it as if it were hitting steel.

The ultimate move of the "World-Destroying Gun Manual"—Iron Prison!
“Bang bang!!”

Hundreds of sword beams struck the dazzling golden shield, like a blazing sun.

All the blade energy shattered instantly upon impacting the protective shield, causing the air to vibrate and form an energy storm that transformed into cyan light spots, which dissipated along with the surrounding storm.

"Whoosh~"

At the same time, Liu Ming transformed into a stream of azure light, reaching the extreme speed, his blade light cascading like a blue river.

The ultimate move of the Silent Wind and Formless Blade – Formless Wind!

It's now!

Lin Qi's eyes shone with a dazzling golden light; this was the moment he had been waiting for!
"boom!!"

Suddenly, the golden shield exploded, and a powerful golden shockwave spread outwards.

At the same instant, Lin Qi gripped the spear tightly with both hands, his muscles bulging, his blood surging like rolling thunder, and power flowing out continuously.

Golden threads emerged, breaking through numerous constraints and piercing the air. In the golden eyes' perspective, amidst the turbulent energy storm, he precisely locked onto Liu Ming's weakness.

The spear shot out like a dragon, as if a golden dragon roared and thrust out.

The ultimate move of the "World-Destroying Gun Manual" - Instant Shadow Thousand Lights!
"laugh!"

The great gun broke through several times the speed of sound, cutting through the air, and even energy storms could not stop its speed.

"This……"

"not good!"

Liu Ming's eyes widened as he sensed a strong danger. The powerful shockwave from the backlash severely affected his killing move.

If this killing move is slowed down, its power will be greatly reduced.

"call out!"

A flash of cold light appeared before their eyes, and a beam of golden light shot out straight out.

It rubbed against his sharp sword.

"quick!"

Liu Ming's eyes widened, and he exerted all his strength, trying to block Lin Qi's spear.

The two sides clashed, and the sharp spear tip pierced straight through Liu Ming's neck.

"Pfft~"

Liu Ming's battle blade struck Lin Qi's neck, successfully breaking through his defenses and drawing blood.

But that’s all!

Blood gushed from Liu Ming's neck, spraying out in a torrent.

His entire neck was pierced by the spear, completely extinguishing any chance of life.

"boom!!"

A deafening energy storm erupted, and the audience could only see two figures and splattering blood.

Only after the energy storm subsided and the energy dissipated did everyone see the outcome clearly.

Liu Ming wiped the blood from his neck, said nothing, and vanished into nothingness. [Refining Aperture Realm Supplementary Round: Lin Qi (Blue Star) wins!]

Above the arena, an intelligent female voice announced the final result.

"call!"

Lin Qi gripped the large gun and felt a sense of relief wash over him, as the invisible pressure dissipated.

A strong sense of pleasure welled up inside me.

"Buzz!"

The next instant, he was teleported back to the audience seats.

"Bah bang bang!!"

After the results were announced, thunderous applause and deafening shouts erupted from the audience.

"Won!!"

"Jin Di is awesome!"

"Lin Qi is awesome!"

"Lin Qi is amazing! He won again! He's too strong!"

"We won the second game! We won!"

Familiar faces in the audience, such as Lin Zhen, Fang Huiyi, Dean Liu, Mu Hong, and Xue Zhou, were also applauding wildly.

"Lin Qi will definitely win!"

"He has never lost in crucial moments and always surprises people," Dean Liu remarked.

"Thanks to Lin Qi, we have won the second round and are now at least at the level of a medium-level civilization," Xue Zhou said.

……

Compared to the boiling and joyful audience on Blue Star.

The Ryujin civilization was plunged into despair.

"how is this possible?"

"Liu Ming actually lost?"

"Is this for real? Our Flowing Blade Civilization's strongest Qi Refining Realm genius actually lost to a native of Earth?"

Countless members of the Ryujin civilization were instantly overwhelmed. They could not accept this outcome.

……

On the seats of the Liuren Civilization players.

Liu Ming was teleported back. He touched his neck, his expression blank.

The sensation of being pierced through the neck still seemed to linger, and he wondered where exactly the problem started.

His mind raced, and he subconsciously began to review the entire match.

Especially in the last few seconds, the battle ended instantly.

"I've been fooled!"

He recalled that he had been tricked; he had thought that attacking Lin Qi to break through his defenses was a good opportunity.

Actually, that was a flaw deliberately shown by the other party.

It was to make him unleash his killing move.

Killing moves are different from ordinary moves. Although they are extremely powerful, they also consume a lot of energy and stamina.

Therefore, even their galaxy-level geniuses cannot use it without restriction.

The opponent deliberately let him unleash his killing move, luring him into a trap, and then killed him in two moves.

In particular, the opponent's killing move is incredibly fast and accurate, aimed precisely at the weakness of his own killing move.

If it were just that, it would be fine, but the opponent's final burst of speed was unbelievably fast.

Even I couldn't withstand it.

Such an opponent is terrifying!

While Liu Ming was pondering, the others were also dumbfounded.

The other two galaxy-level geniuses, Liu Hai and Feng Ti, also fell silent.

"Liu Ming actually lost too? How could this be?"

Someone exclaimed in disbelief, "This is a huge blow. Even a top genius like Liu Ming has lost."

Tenrenliu's expression finally changed, and he could no longer hide his surprise.

His best disciple actually lost to a native genius.

Of course, losing is losing; he has lost many battles before.

Most importantly, they lost the second game.

With Liu Ming's defeat in the additional match, Liu Ren Civilization lost this round in the Qi Refining Realm.

The current score is 1:1.
According to the best-of-three rule, they must win the next round.

However, the fear lies with the Sky Realm, for even the Blue Star civilization possesses powerful geniuses.

Thinking about this, he regretted it again, wishing he had found out about the other party's information beforehand.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have lost.

……

The inspection team was in the audience.

Tu Lan smiled as she looked at the final result:

"They actually won!"

The deacon standing nearby was stunned:

"It's really surprising that the Flowing Blade Civilization lost."

"In the 1000 trials of the Fire Seed that I have presided over, this is the first time that a supported civilization has won a single round."

"This is a first."

The others were also dumbfounded. How could the Blue Star civilization be so powerful?

Especially this guy named Lin Qi, who actually managed to beat Liu Ming.

Who would dare to imagine this?

Such a genius was born from such a small civilization on Earth.

Simply incredible.

"Whoo~"

Deacon Taga calmed himself down and began to project the results, preparing to announce them.

……

On the Blue Star players' seats.

"Clap!!"

When Lin Qi was teleported back, he was greeted with applause from the crowd.

He looked at the Crimson Emperor and smiled:

"Fortunately, I live up to my fate!"

The Crimson Emperor, clad in red, smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work!"

"You have made a tremendous contribution to our Blue Star civilization, which will be recorded in the history of our Blue Star."

Countless people will remember your achievements.

Jiang Tao laughed loudly, "Brother Qi, I knew you would win!"

"How could Liu Ming possibly be your match!"

Sun Sheng also smiled and said:

"I knew it, how could you possibly lose?"

"How could someone who can defeat me possibly lose to Liu Ming?"

Li Tianxing said coldly, "You're just trying to make yourself look good!"

The air is filled with joy.

Everyone felt relieved.

Winning even one game is incredibly difficult.

After everyone quieted down, Deacon Taga was projected into the sky above the arena, and he announced in a booming voice:

"I am Deacon Taga, and I hereby announce the victory of the Blue Star Civilization in the second round of the Fire Seed Trial, a contest against cultivators at the Qi Refining Realm!"

"Currently, the combat strength of both sides is 1:1."

"Next, we will proceed with the third round of the Fire Seed Trial, a competition for Sky-Soaring Realm warriors."

"This round will determine the final outcome between the two civilizations!"

"Both civilizations should prepare themselves!"

……

The audience in the stands calmed down and waited quietly for the third performance to begin.

"In the third round, our Blue Star civilization has a chance. The ninth-realm title-level warriors are the most outstanding beings on our Blue Star."

"They all fought their way up from the early stages of the Martial Arts Era; their talent and willpower are the strongest."

"Perhaps we have a chance to win!"

……

In the contestants' seats, everyone's attention was focused on the 10 people in the first row.

They are the 10 strongest people in the entire Blue Star civilization.

Lin Qi secretly pondered that the key to victory lay with the five individuals: the Crimson Emperor, the God of War, the Ganges Venerable, the Ice and Snow Emperor, and the Overlord.

It's not just because of talent, but also because of tradition.

Because only they have the secret to getting five-star ratings.

The others were practicing four-star rated manuals.

For example, the Mountain and River King cultivates the four-star "Mountain and River Heavenly Spear" technique.

The opponents, on the other hand, are all practicing five-star secret manuals. This is a difference in inheritance, and in high-level competition, the difference in inheritance will have a huge impact on the battle.

Therefore, the five members of the Crimson Emperor are recognized as the five strongest people on Blue Star, and the other nine realm warriors are far behind them.

The Crimson Emperor is far stronger than the other four, so Lin Qi guessed that the Nine Realms would use the same strategy in this round as they did in this round.

The purple-robed overlord slowly stood up and laughed:
"I'll take the first round!"

“The Flowing Blade Civilization has already guessed our plan, so they can't possibly send out their weakest genius for the first match.”

"And they don't choose their opponents first anymore, so they won't give us any opportunities."

"No matter how strong the opponent, I am confident that I can defeat them!"

The Crimson Emperor, with his deep-set eyes, nodded and said, "It's up to you, Overlord!"

The Overlord nodded, and when the time came, he transformed into a blue pillar of light that shot into the sky.

……

at the same time,

On the seats of the Liuren Civilization players.

The Heavenly Blade Style waits for the opponent to go first; as long as a player is in line within the allotted time, that's fine.

He glanced around at the 10 in the Sky Realm and made a decision instantly.

"For the first match, Feng Yan, you're up!"

The others exclaimed in surprise, "They're sending Feng Yan to the first match? He's the fifth strongest expert in our Sky Realm!"

"It seems that even the senior has to be on guard."

A burly man dressed in a red and white robe stood up and slowly nodded, saying:

I will return with victory!

After saying that, he transformed into a blue pillar of light, soaring into the sky and descending onto the arena.
