She looked up at Chen Yao with a look of utter disbelief.

Chen Yao smiled and looked down at Jiang Ying.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, shall we continue?" Chen Yao asked.

Although Jiang Ying was very unwilling, she couldn't use any strength at the moment, and without the power to resist, she naturally lost.

"I... damn it, you won." Jiang Ying was forced to admit defeat.

As soon as Jiang Ying conceded defeat, the disciples of the Supreme Response Sect cheered. Today, all their factions were one, sharing both loss and glory. Naturally, they had to cheer for Chen Yao.

Upon hearing Jiang Ying concede defeat, Chen Yao immediately withdrew her power, and the fingers pressing down on her disappeared. Only then did Jiang Ying stand up and ask with a puzzled expression.

"What kind of power is this? It can actually seal my power." This was the first time Jiang Ying had encountered an opponent who made her feel utterly powerless.

"It's a secret, I can't tell you." Chen Yao shook her head.

Jiang Ying was helpless and had no choice but to leave.

The expressions on the faces of those bigwigs, however, were quite complex.

"What a strange power! It carries a rich life force within it, and this power can even disintegrate the opponent's power. Could it be the legendary Immaculate Body?" Dao Hua guessed that this was the first person present to mention Chen Yao's physique.

And she didn't hide it; everyone around heard it.

"What? Immaculate Body? The kind of physique that is said to be immune to all magic and can decompose all energy into pure spiritual energy? Senior Dao Hua, are you sure?" The experts of the Supreme Induction Sect were all taken aback.

The cultivators from other factions were even more astonished. They might not have seen the Immaculate Body, but they had certainly heard of its famous name.

"I can't be sure, I just feel there's a slight similarity, but in any case, it must be some kind of rare constitution. The Tai Shang Gan Ying Sect has produced many talented people in this era, Master Tai Bai," Dao Hua murmured.

Li Bai immediately spoke with Tianyi Ancestor and the others. If Chen Yao truly possessed the Immaculate Body, then that would be of great importance.

They quickly sent a telepathic message to the peak master of Goddess Peak.

Tell her to summon Chen Yao quickly; such a rare physique shouldn't be revealed too much.

Chen Yao originally wanted to continue the challenge, but just then, she heard her master's voice in her ear.

"Yao'er, come back."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yao was taken aback, and then returned to Goddess Peak with a puzzled expression.

"Since Taiyao of Goddess Peak is no longer accepting the challenge, is there anyone else willing to step up and fight?" Elder Tianjian asked.

Those cultivators who were initially curious about Chen Yao's power were stunned. It was frustrating that the fight was called off after just one match.

If Chen Yao continues the challenge, many people will probably want to go on stage and test her strength.

"Master, why did you let me come back? I wanted to play a few more matches," Chen Yao complained as soon as she returned.

The Goddess Peak Master belongs to the "Tian" generation and is named Tianyu. She appears to be a very gentle and beautiful silver-haired woman.

“Your physique is special, so it’s not good to expose too much,” Tianyu said with a smile.

Chen Yao was taken aback. After thinking about it, she realized that it made sense. Exposing too many of her methods would only make people think about her.

After two battles, the Five Poisons Sect cultivators had no intention of sending out more people, as they needed to assess the capabilities of other forces first.

You can't keep exposing your methods.

A minute later, the Immortal Spirit Sect finally made their appearance.

"Tao Yu of the Immortal Spirit Sect in the Myriad Spirits Domain, mid-stage Divine Soul Realm, I wonder which fellow Daoist would be willing to spar with me?" A gentle-looking young man from the Immortal Spirit Sect stepped onto the stage and challenged.

He didn't target any particular faction; instead, he sent someone to challenge her.

This is, after all, the home ground of the Taishang Ganying Sect. If anyone challenges us, the Taishang Ganying Sect will certainly not back down.

"Beast Peak's Xuanlong would like to spar with you, fellow Daoist. I've heard that the Myriad Spirits Domain excels in beast taming techniques, and it just so happens that I've mastered the art of beast taming." The disciple of Beast Peak stepped forward.

This is a sign of respect for the Immortal Spirit Sect and is relatively fair. Since you are all skilled in beast taming, let's have a battle between cultivators of the same type.

"Haha, really? I didn't expect your sect to also have a beast-taming tradition. Perfect, I'd like to see it for myself." Tao Yu said with great pleasure.

After saying this, Tao Yu waved his hand, and a phantom demonic bird exuding a chilling aura flew out of Tao Yu's body and hovered above his head.

"A demon spirit?" Xuanlong frowned.

To put it simply, the beast-taming techniques of the Immortal Spirit Sect are quite different from those of the Nine Heavens Domain.

The Immortal Spirit Sect extracts the soul of a demon beast from its physical body, keeps it within their own body, and uses magic to condense its physical body when needed.

For the beast lords who actually raise demonic beasts and spirit beasts, this method is somewhat cruel, because in their eyes, pets are comrades and partners.

Xuanlong didn't say much, but patted the pet pouch at his waist, and a beautiful white tiger appeared beside him.

This is a late-stage Four Extremes demon beast.

"Roar..." The tiger demon roared at Tao Yu as soon as it came out.

This battle is between two beast tamers. Although their methods of controlling the beasts are different, they are essentially the same and still depend on the tacit understanding between themselves and their pets.

As the battle began, the demon spirit fought against the demon pet, and the master fought against the master. The battle was extremely fierce. However, after a few rounds, the Xuanlong's pet clearly gained the upper hand and suppressed the opponent's demon spirit.

But suddenly, something unexpected happened. Just when Xuanlong thought he had victory in his grasp, another demon spirit flew out of Tao Yu's body and attacked Xuanlong.

Xuanlong was struck squarely by the demon spirit, coughing up blood as he flew backward.

Since it was just a friendly spar, it should end with a nod. Xuanlong had suffered serious injuries and naturally could not continue fighting.

"There's even a demon spirit here! This is truly impossible to guard against." Everyone was quite surprised.

After defeating Xuanlong, Tao Yu walked over somewhat embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Xuanlong, I have more than one demon spirit living inside me. This is a bit of an unorthodox approach for me," Tao Yu said awkwardly.

Xuanlong didn't say much. He immediately stood up, put away his pet, and returned to the platform where Beast Peak was located with a blank expression.

"Huh? This?" Tao Yu was embarrassed and puzzled for a moment.

He did not continue the challenge, but returned to the Immortal Spirit Sect platform.

"What happened to Fellow Daoist Xuanlong just now? He seemed very unhappy, and it didn't seem to be because he lost." Tao Yu asked his fellow disciples as soon as he returned.

The disciples of the Immortal Spirit Sect who knew the situation immediately offered an explanation.

"Our Wanling Domain's method of spirit possession is also a way of beast taming, but it belongs to a more radical school, and many beast tamers cannot accept it."

Tao Yu finally understood what was going on after hearing this.

"So that's how it is." Tao Yu gave another awkward smile.

Soon, many more cultivators went up to challenge, and the fourth round was challenged by disciples of the Supreme Response Sect.

However, this challenger quickly lost, being defeated by a disciple of the same realm from the Kaiyang Shenxiao Sect.

So far, most of the cultivators who have reached the early to mid-stages of the Divine Soul Realm have come up to spar, while cultivators who have reached the late stage of the Divine Soul Realm to the Mystic Transformation Realm have no intention of coming up to the stage immediately.

Moreover, the situation did not become one-sided again; at least the battles were evenly matched.

But this wasn't very interesting; it didn't feel particularly surprising or amazing.

Night fell quickly, and the arena was brightly lit, which was quite interesting.

Around 7 PM, an interesting match finally started.

"Eastern Wilderness, Spirit Pill Sect, Tang Zhichun, I have heard that the Medicine Peak of the Supreme Induction Sect is skilled in alchemy. I am a mid-grade Purple-level alchemist and would like to challenge the alchemists of Medicine Peak." A young alchemist stepped onto the stage with a smile.

This one is interesting. Watching fights all the time can get boring after a while.

"Haha, this is interesting! We've finally got to have a friendly competition between our secondary professions. This match is sure to be a lot of fun," the crowd laughed.

The fact that Tai Rong of Medicine Peak was a mid-grade purple-level alchemist made her fall into deep thought.

"Who among you will go and spar with him?" Tai Rong glanced at Nalan Yan and the others.

“Master, I am pregnant, and it’s easy for things to go wrong when I’m refining medicine,” Nalan Yan said, shaking her head.

Therefore, Xuanhe is the only option.

"Xuanhe, you go." Tai Rong said to Xuanhe.

Xuanhe was taken aback, and she said somewhat uneasily.

"Master, Master, it's easy for me to get into trouble when I'm refining medicine in crowded places," Xuanhe said, looking troubled.

These words left Tai Rong speechless. Currently, only Nalan Yan and Xuan He meet the requirements; the other people are of higher rank than Tang Zhichun.

This kind of challenge can only be given to someone of a lower or the same rank as him.

If Nalan Yan were not pregnant, she would be confident of winning against Tai Rong.

Seeing the conflicted expressions on the faces of the people behind him, Ye Liuyun stood up.

"Senior Sister Tai Rong, let me do it," Ye Liuyun said with a smile.

Ye Liuyun suddenly stood up, which startled Tai Rong and the others. They knew that although Ye Liuyun was an elder of the Medicine Peak.

However, in their minds, he was only a top-tier blue-level alchemist, far inferior to the other party in rank.

Tai Rong and Tai Fu looked troubled, unsure whether to agree or disagree.

Seeing the two of them looking hesitant, Ye Liuyun knew what they were thinking, so he spoke again.

"Senior sisters, please believe me. Junior brother will definitely not disgrace the reputation of our Medicine Peak."

Tai Rong was still considering it when Nalan Yan spoke up.

“Master, if Uncle Ye is willing to accept the challenge on behalf of our Medicine Peak, our Medicine Peak will definitely win.”

Nalan Yan's words startled Tai Rong, and an incredulous look appeared in her eyes.

Among his disciples, Nalan Yan was the most likely to reach the Yellow-level Alchemist level. Since she said so, it meant that he might not know Ye Liuyun well enough.

"This? Alright, Junior Brother Ye, then you will represent our Medicine Peak in the battle. I'm counting on you." Tai Rong said solemnly.

After receiving Tai Rong's permission, Ye Liuyun immediately looked at Lin Aoxue with a smile.

"Hehe, Aoxue, I'll go up first." Ye Liuyun greeted her, then leaped down.

Lin Aoxue quickly gave her a word of advice.

"Hey! Don't make any random medicines!"

This statement startled those around them.

"Huh? What does the Goddess mean by that? Is she telling Elder Ye not to concoct medicines recklessly?" The disciples of Medicine Peak looked completely confused.

As for Ye Liuyun, she had already landed on the arena.

"Elder Ye Liuyun of Medicine Peak, a top-grade blue-level alchemist, would like to ask Fellow Daoist Tang for guidance," Ye Liuyun said with a slight smile.

When Ye Liuyun took office, people from other factions were puzzled again.

"Hey, why did this guy come up here? Isn't he just a blue-level alchemist?" The disciples from the factions who didn't get along with Ye Liuyun couldn't help but complain.

Most of them believed that Ye Liuyun might be very strong in combat, capable of rivaling a Nascent Soul cultivator.

However, when it comes to alchemy, a difference of a millimeter can lead to a world of difference.

Tang Zhichun was also taken aback. After carefully examining Ye Liuyun, he became somewhat annoyed, because he felt that Yao Feng was humiliating him.

"Damn it? What does this mean? They actually sent a blue-level alchemist to fight me. Does the Medicine Peak think that a blue-level alchemist is stronger than me, a mid-grade purple-level alchemist? Also, how can this kid, who is only at the Spirit Stream Realm, become an elder of the Medicine Peak?" Tang Zhichun was confused by Ye Liuyun's appearance on stage.

Li Bai and the others had rather complicated expressions. They only knew that Ye Liuyun was very strong in combat, but they were not sure that Ye Liuyun's alchemy skills were also strong.

"Could this little guy be hiding his alchemy skills?" Li Bai wondered to himself.

"Master Taibai, isn't your Medicine Peak being a bit too arrogant? A competition of alchemy isn't a battle of brutes. The difference between top-grade blue-level and mid-grade purple-level is like heaven and earth. Isn't this a bit too childish?" The representative of the Kaiyang Shenxiao Sect said with displeasure.

Because the Lingdan Sect is the strongest alchemy sect in the Eastern Wilderness, representing the face of the Eastern Wilderness's alchemy world, their Kaiyang Shenxiao Sect, as the strongest sect in the Eastern Wilderness, naturally has to uphold the face of the Eastern Wilderness's cultivation world.

"Hehe, the competition hasn't even started yet, how do you know we can't win? I think we should wait and see. Even if we lose, our Taishang Ganying Sect will accept it." Li Bai still decided to trust Ye Liuyun. He felt that Ye Liuyun wasn't the kind of person who liked to offer himself up for a beating.

When the representatives of the Kaiyang Shenxiao Sect heard Li Bai say this, they could only shut up. After all, if others weren't afraid of losing face, what else could they say?

"Elder? Fellow Daoist, are you sure you meet the competition requirements?" Tang Zhichun suppressed his frustration and questioned.

"I was also a new disciple a few months ago, and my actual age is only a little over 200 years old, so I naturally fit the age requirement," Ye Liuyun replied.

But in reality, if someone could see through Ye Liuyun's disguise, they would know that Ye Liuyun should be over 1,200 years old now.

Tang Zhichun was taken aback by these words. Then, he glanced at the expressions of the cultivators from the Supreme Response Sect around him. Seeing that they did not show any unusual expressions, he knew that the other party was not joking.
