Swallowing the Stars: Cultivate to Become Stronger.

Chapter 105 The Final Battle!

On the five arenas, one duel after another came to an end.

The battle between Luo Shen and Rong Jun ended the fastest. After all, both of them were martial artists, and under the suppression of their strength, Rong Jun was completely defeated and had almost no chance to fight back.

As for the battle between Bolan and Luo Feng...

A martial artist's burst of speed at close range is astonishing, enough to instantly close in and kill the controller. Although Luo Feng tried his best to use the "Piercing Sky Style" to surround and intercept him, he was ultimately defeated by Bo Lan's agility.

The other three groups.

Uka and Aichen also quickly defeated their opponents. Only the battle between Qianshui and Longyun continued until the winners of the other four groups were decided. The two sides were still locked in a fierce struggle.

It wasn't until the arena space shrank to a diameter of 500 meters that Long Yun finally defeated his opponent by relying on the suppressive power of his domain.

The final five winners are Luo Shen, Bo Lan, Wu Ka, Ai Chen, and Long Yun!

The five finalists will compete in a round-robin tournament. According to the rules, each of them will fight against the other four. The winner gets one point, the tie gets 0 points, and the loser gets one point. The top two will be determined by the points ranking.

The outcome of the battle goes without saying.

In the first three battles, Luo Shen and Bo Lan easily defeated their opponents, leaving only their final battle to determine who would be ranked number one overall.

Although the final outcome of the battle did not affect the two's entry into the Primal Secret Realm, Bolan, who was usually calm and seemingly indifferent to everything, took this battle very seriously.

On the arena.

Bolan and Luo Shen stood facing each other, their familiar blood-red longswords gripped tightly in their hands, their eyes burning with fighting spirit.

"Fight me with all your might!"

Luo Shen was taken aback.

He looked at Berlan with a strange expression. To be honest, this was the first time he had heard Berlan speak since the start of the Genius Battle. He never expected that the first thing Berlan would say was that he wanted to fight him with all his might.

"Are all the guys around me battle maniacs?"

Luo Shen rubbed his nose.

Not to mention Luo Feng, that battle maniac, Hong, Lei Shen, Rong Jun, and now Bo Lan, without exception, all of them who have faced him have told him to fight with all his might.

It makes it sound like he'd deliberately let them win.

The Nine Swords Venerable paid no attention to the conversation between the two on the field. Seeing that both were ready for battle, he directly announced, "This battle will determine the first and second place overall rankings of this year's Genius Battle. Regardless of victory or defeat, both will enter the Primal Secret Realm. Now, let the battle begin!"

"laugh!"

Berlan moved.

In an instant, he unleashed thousands of illusory bodies, and within a certain range around him, a blue aura permeated the area. Within this region, thousands of Bolan figures seemed to form an absolute domain, allowing him to strike from any point!

"They're getting serious right off the bat? Looks like I can't afford to be careless."

After saying that, five-colored air currents instantly spread out within a thousand-meter radius around Luo Shen, and the terrifying domain reappeared. The two domains collided with each other, sparks flying everywhere!

Everyone watching below could see that Berlan's domain was subtly at a disadvantage.

After all, Luo Shen's domain is a terrifying combination of five fundamental laws and spatial laws. Even a super genius like Rong Jun, who has the strength to be ranked among the top five in the universe, is completely suppressed by it.

Although Berlan's strength was not weak.

His understanding of the fundamental laws of space was not much worse than Luo Shen's, but the law of wind was ultimately somewhat incompatible with the fundamental laws of space, and the power he could unleash was ultimately not as great as the five fundamental laws of metal, wood, water, fire and earth.

Furthermore, Luo Shen gained a more thorough understanding of the nature of space, which enhanced the power of the combined domain.

The two sides have not yet fought.

Berlan's chances of winning were already reduced by half.

"snort!"

Knowing that forcing a move would not yield good results, Bolan still drew his sword. The fierce sword light was as fast as lightning, as if cutting through space. Each sword strike was as unpredictable as the wind, making it impossible to judge its trajectory.

"Clang!"

Swords clashed!

In an instant, Bolan's thousands of illusory bodies vanished, leaving only his true self, who was wrestling with Luo Shen.

"Your swordsmanship is indeed formidable!"

With a sudden burst of force, a hundred times greater than normal, Luo Shen sent Berlan flying backward, tumbling several times in the air before barely managing to stop. But Luo Shen didn't rush to pursue, instead slowly saying, "But you've chosen the wrong path!"

Berlan's expression changed.

From childhood to adulthood, he has always been a super genius among his peers and has never been defeated!

Although he acknowledged that Luo Shen was more talented than him, Bolan could not accept that the other party immediately said that the path he had chosen was a mistake.

"The outcome is still undecided!"

Berlan still refused to give up.

With flashes of sword light and disappearances of phantom figures, swords were unleashed at Luo Shen from all directions, as if trying to prove themselves right.

Luo Shen intercepted Bolan's attacks with pinpoint accuracy time and time again, thwarting Bolan's efforts each time.

Below the arena.

Luo Feng, who was standing side by side with Rong Jun, looked at the battle taking place on the arena in the distance and couldn't help but sigh, "This is really insane! I never thought that in just a few years, the gap between me and Ah Shen would be so big."

I vaguely remember that he and Luo Shen fought side by side back then, when Luo Shen was far from being as strong as he is now.

I don't know when it started.

Perhaps it was during the time Luo Shen disappeared from the elite training camp, or perhaps it was during the time he possessed the Golden Horned Beast, that the gap between the two began to widen significantly.

Fortunately, he now has two top-tier clones helping him comprehend the origin of the universe, and his strength is advancing by leaps and bounds.

One day I will be able to catch up with Luo Shen!

"yes!"

Rong Jun also exclaimed, "One Bolan is one thing, but I never expected that Luo Shen would emerge who is even stronger than Bolan. It's one thing to have a strong understanding of the laws, but his self-created secret techniques are even stronger than mine! He's truly monstrous!"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Both of them are people of strong will. Even though they did not make it into the top five in this battle of geniuses, they both entered the top ten in the universe and were able to enter the Primordial Secret Realm.

Although they are not as good as Bolan and Luo Shen now, they firmly believe that one day they will be able to surpass them!

Clang!

Swords clashed, and the two figures quickly separated.

Looking at Bolan not far away, Luo Shen shook his head. Through their previous encounter, he had already figured out the other party's background.

Berlan is no match for him now!

Luo Shen struck again, forcing Bo Lan back, and said, "If you had focused on the laws of space, with your talent, you might have been able to fight me. But you were too arrogant, distracted by the laws of wind, trying to use them as a springboard to study the laws of time, wasting your potential in time!"

This time, Berlan did not refute it.

Even someone as proud as him had to admit that he was no match for Luo Shen now!

"Was I wrong?"

Berlan asked himself the question, but no one could answer it for him. This was the first difficult choice he had faced since leaving his teacher.

Seeing that Bolan was no longer as resistant as before, Luo Shen naturally understood that the other party had listened to him.

Of course, he was just offering casual advice, not wanting this genius to go astray. Whether the other party could actually listen and make changes was none of his concern.

I took a look at the attribute panel.

Seeing that Piao Xue's proficiency with the next set of sword techniques had increased significantly on the panel, Luo Shen couldn't help but smile.

really!

You gain more proficiency by sparring with unparalleled geniuses.

But this battle should end now!

"tread!"

This was the first time Luo Shen had taken the initiative to attack in this battle!

"laugh!"

In an instant, tens of thousands of illusory bodies appeared within the domain. According to the classification of the Myriad Threads Flow Secret Technique, he had already reached the highest level.

Domain, Suppression!

Combining the essence of space, the true meaning of the spark erupted, and the Ghostly Blade drew the most bizarre arc in mid-air, appearing in front of Bolan as if by teleportation.

"Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!"

A series of clanging sounds rang out, sparks flew, and cold light flashed as Berlan's figure retreated step by step.

final!

With a barely perceptible sound, Berlan's body stiffened as he dodged, a red line appeared on his forehead, and he stopped moving completely!

Berlan, defeated!
