Seeing Ye Liuyun's smug expression, Lin Aoxue quickly reached out and pulled her down.

"Alright, alright, that's enough. There are so many people watching you around." Lin Aoxue muttered under her breath.

Ye Liuyun stuck out his tongue with a grin, then immediately quieted down, while using his peripheral vision to observe the gazes of the Holy Lords and important figures around him.

The eyes of these people conveyed three messages: confusion, doubt, and admiration.

Those who were confused were naturally the Nirvana cultivators, who were wondering what method Ye Liuyun had used to evade Shi Yue's Thousand Years Formation.

Currently, the only one who is truly suspicious is the Holy Master of the Shi family, because judging from Shi Yue's feedback, she feels that Ye Liuyun's general concept is the Immortal Body of Immortality, which is also known as the Immortal Body of Immortality.

As for those who agreed, there were also some cultivators, but most of them came from the Nine Heavens Holy Land. However, among all the high-ranking members of the Nine Heavens Holy Land, only one person seemed quite calm about Ye Liuyun's performance, as if no matter how Ye Liuyun performed, it was all taken for granted.

That is the Palace Master of Qingxu Palace, Dongfang Mingjing.

Dongfang Mingjing has witnessed the terrifying existence summoned by Ye Liuyun. With such a powerful expert protecting him in the shadows, do you think Ye Liuyun himself could be weak?

"Mu Yun, your granddaughter is truly extraordinary, and your grandson-in-law is also exceptionally talented. I've decided that I can adopt your initial suggestion. After today's arena debate, I will discuss it with the other three palaces," the patriarch of Ziwei Palace said, looking at Li Mu Yun before him.

Upon hearing this, Li Muyun was slightly taken aback. She glanced at the ancestor beside her and a rare smile appeared on her face.

"Ancestor, rest assured, I will do my best to help my grandson and grandson-in-law join the Nine Heavens Holy Land," Li Muyun said.

The patriarch of Ziwei Palace nodded in approval, praising the performances of Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue, as well as the outstanding disciples of the Taishang Ganying Sect.

This forced her to reconsider Li Muyun's original intentions.

As long as one of the two can become the future successor of the Nine Heavens Holy Land, then the Supreme Response Sect will always be the most powerful force among the Nine Heavens Holy Land's affiliated forces, and will never think of surpassing the Nine Heavens Holy Land.

The four palaces of Shangqing Palace wanted to support Lin Aoxue, while the four palaces of Qingxu Palace wanted to support Ye Liuyun. There was also a relationship of closeness or distance between them.

Therefore, there is still an entity within the Nine Heavens Holy Land that can achieve absolute balance.

Soon, the excitement ended, and the competition was next.

Shi Youlan could no longer sit still.

"Senior sister, and Master, I want to go have some fun," Shi Youlan said, standing up.

Upon hearing this, Yue Xun immediately nodded.

“Go ahead, it’s time for our Gu Spirit Holy Land to show its strength,” Yue Xun replied.

Among the disciples of their Gu Spirit Holy Land, Shi Youlan is definitely the most outstanding.

"Gu Spirit Holy Land, Yueyou, peak Divine Soul Realm, challenging cultivators below the third level of the Nascent Soul Realm. Oh, and I should remind you, I'm actually challenging cultivators below the third level of the Nascent Soul Realm. Those fellow cultivators who deliberately seal their realms, please don't try to bully me, a mere Divine Soul Realm cultivator." Shi Youlan stood up and said.

Ye Liuyun had wanted to say this not long ago, but he was too embarrassed to say it because of his status. Now that his clone has said it, it can be considered as Ye Liuyun saying it.

Shi Youlan's words immediately made the people from the Nine Heavens Holy Land look unpleasant, but they did not refute her.

Shi Youlan's provocation before going on stage must have displeased the cultivators of the Nine Heavens Holy Land.

"Hmph! Chu Yunyang of the Nine Heavens Holy Land, peak Divine Soul Realm, requests guidance from the Gu Ling Holy Land." A contestant from the Nine Heavens Holy Land, at the peak Divine Soul Realm, stepped onto the stage.

After seeing Ye Liuyun's clone appear on stage, the people from both the Lin and Ye families became fully focused again. Even though it was just a clone, it was still Ye Liuyun.

"Hey! Kid, how's your clone's strength?" Lin Tianya asked.

Ye Liuyun thought for a moment and then answered.

"It's alright. Her strength is enough to contend with those at the second or third level of the Nascent Soul realm. I estimate that this first match should be over within a minute."

Lin Tianya was quite surprised.

"Can clones be this powerful? Should I open a private residence and win some more treasures from them?" Lin Tianya chuckled strangely.

Ye Liuyun couldn't help but roll her eyes at Lin Tianya.

"Ancestor, stop playing around. This will easily expose her identity," Ye Liuyun stopped him.

Indeed, it's inevitable that people would be suspicious if you offered a betting game to a monk who is not related to you.

"Huh? That seems to be true. Never mind then." Lin Tianya gave up.

However, Lin Tianya did not offer to gamble, but Yue Xun offered to do so.

"Hehe, it seems that I, the Holy Lord, have no choice but to start a betting game. I will use a mid-grade Heaven-rank magic treasure to bet on my disciple Yue You to win. Are there any fellow Daoists willing to take the bet?" Yue Xun asked.

However, the crowd was not optimistic about the disciples of the Nine Heavens Holy Land, so after thinking about it, they decided not to accept the invitation and instead decided to watch a match first.

When Yue Xun saw that no one responded to her, she immediately let out a cold snort of displeasure.

Everyone turned their attention away from Ye Liuyun and back to the arena.

"Tch! What are you doing here, a mere Divine Soul Realm cultivator? Didn't you hear that I'm challenging cultivators below the third level of the Nascent Soul Realm? Don't you have any self-awareness at all?" Shi Youlan said, looking at the guy in front of her with displeasure.

Upon hearing this, Chu Yunyang's face immediately turned angry.

"Arrogant! You'd better beat me first. Take this!" Chu Yunyang was furious that Shi Youlan had underestimated him.

He was at the peak of the Divine Soul Realm in the Nine Heavens Holy Land, and his combat power was no less than that of some ordinary Nascent Soul Realm One or Two Heavens cultivators.

Chu Yunyang was a fire-attribute cultivator, and his first move was a powerful fire-attribute spell. However, although his spell was impressive, Shi Youlan didn't take it seriously at all.

Seeing the powerful fire-attribute technique unleashed by the opponent, Shi Youlan immediately raised her hand disdainfully and pointed a finger at Chu Yunyang on the other side of the sea of ​​fire.

A beam of purple energy shot out from Shi Youlan's finger, piercing through the flames and striking Chu Yunyang directly opposite her.

Chu Yunyang watched as a purple energy broke through the flames and rushed towards him. He hurriedly tried to defend himself, but to his surprise, his defense was no match for Shi Youlan's attack. After Shi Youlan's purple light struck his defense, it immediately corroded a hole the size of a finger, and the poison gas eventually hit his body.

"Pfft!" Chu Yunyang spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot, and then slumped down. Not only that, the poison gas quickly spread throughout his body, causing him immense pain.

"Ah...it hurts so much, I give up, I give up." As soon as Chu Yunyang landed, he was so poisoned that he rolled on the ground and howled in pain. The scene was shocking to behold.

Looking at Chu Yunyang, his skin was purple all over, as if his whole body had been ravaged by toxins.

"What? Is the difference in skill really that big? She lost in just one move?" The cultivators from the Nine Heavens Holy Land were shocked by Shi Youlan's attack.

Upon hearing Chu Yunyang admit defeat, Li Mingjiao immediately released her power to invade Chu Yunyang's body and extract the poisonous power within him.

After the toxin was extracted, Chu Yunyang stopped wailing.

"What a vicious poison." Li Mingjiao looked at the poison in her hand with a solemn expression.

She gave Shi Youlan a serious look, then easily wiped away the poison from Shi Youlan with a pinch, and announced at the same time.

"In the first match, Shi Youlan from the Gu Spirit Holy Land won."

Shi Youlan easily won the first match.

"See that, fellow Daoists? If your strength is below the Mystic Transformation Realm, don't even think about challenging me. You can't win." Shi Youlan appeared extremely arrogant.

This attitude displeased many cultivators. The Nine Heavens Holy Land had lost again, and their face was tarnished once more. However, they did not send anyone else to the stage, or at least did not intend to send any disciples of the Nine Heavens Holy Land to the stage. Instead, they turned their attention to some major sects in the Central Continent.

This naturally meant that they should send cultivators at the Transformation Realm to try it out.

But the teacher said that these sects didn't want to participate at all, because this so-called arena competition was basically a performance for their holy land-level sects. It felt like their disciples would just be giving away points if they went on stage.

However, since the experts from the Nine Heavens Holy Land had given their instructions, they couldn't refuse. These sects in the Central Continent were not like those in other regions. Sects in other regions might dare to refuse, but these sects in the Central Continent were right under the noses of the Nine Heavens Holy Land. If you disobeyed, they could replace you at any time.

"Hey! Wu Huan, go ahead." The master of the Huanling Sect, one of the major sects in Zhongzhou, gestured to his disciple.

Wu Huan was only at the first level of the Nascent Soul realm. Seeing Shi Youlan's fighting strength, he had no confidence at all that he could win.

"This? Sect Master, I'm no match for you. Going up there would just mean getting beaten up, wouldn't it?" Wu Huan didn't want to go up.

But their sect leader immediately glared at him.

"Enough with the nonsense. The Holy Land sent us up to test Yueyou's abilities again. We had no choice," the Illusionary Spirit Sect Master said impatiently.

Upon hearing this, Wu Huan had no choice but to get up with a helpless expression.

"Ah! Wu Huan of the Illusionary Spirit Sect from Zhongzhou, at the first level of the Nascent Soul realm, humbly requests guidance from Fellow Daoist Yueyou." After saying this, Wu Huan flew down towards the arena.

Wu Huan is just a cultivator with naturally strong soul power, nothing special, and probably not even as good as Chu Yunyang from before.

As soon as he stepped onto the stage, he immediately released his primordial spirit dharma form and activated a low-grade earth-rank magic weapon to attack Shi Youlan with all his might.

Because he was self-aware; if he hadn't used his full strength from the beginning, he probably wouldn't have been able to use it at all.

Unfortunately, even with his full strength, he couldn't withstand more than three moves. His primordial spirit was once again corroded by Shi Youlan's poisonous skills, and he was defeated on the spot by the deadly poison.

The challengers suffered greatly in the first two rounds, and even fewer cultivators were willing to take the stage for the third round. The cultivators who could reach the second or third level of the Nascent Soul stage were mostly from the fifteen holy lands.

These holy lands were reluctant to send their own disciples up to test the waters, so the third match was still between cultivators from major sects in the Nine Heavens Domain and Shi Youlan. However, the result was still that the match was over in less than a minute.

"Too weak, this is really boring. Don't you holy land cultivators want to come up on stage and have a go? You made it too easy for me to win!" Shi Youlan said with great dissatisfaction after defeating the third person.

The disciples of these holy sites were immediately choked.

"Tch, what an arrogant and boastful woman. What's the rush? There are still so many days to go. We'll have to fight eventually," some disciples from the holy lands grumbled.

That's the truth. They don't need to rush at all; they'll take care of the rest.

They didn't participate because they didn't want to be eliminated today and unable to participate in the later matches. According to the rules, those who lose the arena match cannot participate in the later arena matches. In other words, even Nie Yun cannot participate in the later arena matches.

If there were no restrictions, Shi Youlan's provocation would definitely cause these disciples of the Holy Land to become restless.

"Huh? Why is your clone so different from you in personality? It's like you're two different people." Lin Aoxue couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the incredibly arrogant Shi Youlan in front of her.

“After she leaves me, she will gradually develop her own personality, and there’s nothing I can do about that,” Ye Liuyun said helplessly.

Then some more cultivators went up on stage, but this time there were no particularly big dark horses. Almost all of them were of a higher cultivation level than their opponents, so there was not much chance of them being defeated.

So there's nothing to see here.

And so, today's tournament ended around 10 p.m.

As soon as the match ended, Ye Liuyun and Lin Aoxue returned to the villa with their families.

Meanwhile, the cultivators from other holy lands returned to their own residences immediately to discuss how to deal with the arena competitions in the coming days. Many of their holy lands could not afford to lose the arena competitions again; it would be too humiliating.

However, at this moment, at the Shi family's residence, the family's Holy Master had no mind to discuss the upcoming arena matches with his disciples.

He is currently at his residence, contacting the Shi family through some means of communication. Upon receiving the message from the Shi family's Holy Lord, the powerful members of the Shi family immediately informed the Celestial Realm experts within the family.

Upon learning that the Holy Lord Shi had important news to share, the Celestial Ancestor of the Shi family immediately established communication with the Holy Lord Shi.

At this moment, inside a magnificent golden hall of the Shi family, an old man was communicating with the Holy Lord Shi through a special channel.

“Uncle, I have discovered a cultivator in the Nine Heavens Domain who possesses a body similar to that of an immortal being,” said the Holy Lord Shi with a serious expression.

Upon hearing this, the powerful expert from the Heavenly Realm was first taken aback, and then uttered an extremely unbelievable question.

"What? Are you sure?"

Unfortunately, the Holy Master couldn't confirm it, since Ye Liuyun wasn't their disciple and couldn't be verified simply by them.

"I can't be sure. The other party is no ordinary person, and we are in the Nine Heavens Holy Land. The main reason is that in today's arena match, our Shi family's Thousand Years Grand Array was useless against her, so I suspect there is something wrong with her physique," replied the Holy Master Shi.

However, the Celestial Ancestor of the Shi Family was not happy about it.

"Based on this alone, how can you remain calm and say she has the Immortal Body of Immortality? You need to confirm this further. My advice is to find a way for you to confirm it yourself. After all, the Thousand Autumns Grand Array is only a temporary measure, and there are ways to deal with it," said the Celestial Ancestor of the Shi Family.

He meant that you should try using the laws of time yourself. If you still can't make the other person die of old age using your laws of time, then it means that the other person is indeed the legendary immortal body. Only then can he take the risk and try to capture the other person and bring them back to the Thousand Autumn Domain.

"This? Alright, I'll give it a try, but I can't guarantee success. She has a powerful expert at the Reincarnation Realm protecting her, so she won't be easy to deal with," said the Holy Master Shi.

After a moment of contemplation, the Celestial Ancestor of the Shi family's eyes gleamed with a sharp light.

“Shi Ming, I grant you permission to use the Time Clock,” said the Celestial Ancestor of the Shi family.

Upon hearing this, the Holy Lord was taken aback. This Divine Bell of Time was a divine weapon of the Shi family, currently on the Holy Lord's person. When it rang, it could freeze the spacetime of a certain area.

Those whose cultivation level is below the Celestial Realm are unable to stop this power.

After receiving permission, the Holy Lord Shi planned to use it that very night. After saying this, he closed his eyes and, following the aura of Ye Liuyun that he had memorized not long ago, began to search for Ye Liuyun's traces in the Yaochi Immortal Realm.

Meanwhile, Ye Liuyun and his family were in high spirits and had no idea that trouble might be brewing for her.

The Holy Lord Shi quickly and easily located Ye Liuyun's position. With his Thunder Tribulation Realm cultivation, even Lin Tianya would not be able to detect Ye Liuyun if he wanted to investigate.

Little did she know that there was an immortal residing within Ye Liuyun.

"Eh? Spying? Little guy, be careful. There's a powerful figure watching you from the shadows. Judging by his cultivation level, it should be the Holy Master of the Shi family. I think he's probably up to no good," Lin Qingyou warned with a serious expression.

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun's expression changed.

She glanced at the two happy families, then acted as if nothing had happened, making sure the other person didn't realize she had discovered him.

"Master, what is this guy trying to do? Has he discovered my secret of immortality? Impossible, right? There can't be anyone in this world who can live forever, can there?" Ye Liuyun asked in his mind.

Lin Qingyou took a deep breath and then replied with a rather helpless expression.

"Little one, there's something I have to tell you the truth. There's never been any immortal cultivation technique. Your immortality is your own ability. I'm not sure if you actually have that kind of physique, but there's a 70% chance that you have the legendary, rare, immortal physique." Lin Qingyou revealed a secret.
