Forced to become a pure and innocent female pharmacist in order to cultivate immortality.

As Xue Qingwu finished speaking, random matching resumed in the competition space. Ye Liuyun and the others would probably only be able to watch the show for the next few days, as they were cultivators who had advanced to the next round and would not be matched with anyone else.

"Sigh! I hope some interesting opponents will appear in the next few days," Ye Liuyun said with anticipation.

Once the lights were locked onto the eight human competitors, the battle began.

Today, in the northern continent, an eleven-star powerhouse was selected. He was a male cultivator wearing armor that looked like it was made of gold, giving off an air of wealth. He stood majestically in place, gazing at a demon from beyond the heavens.

Chapter 836 Devastation of Heaven and Earth (5000 words)

"Aiolia, the God of Burial, please enlighten me." The young man in golden armor looked at the demon cultivator opposite him and said in a deep voice.

Aiolia's sharpness was restrained, and he was calm and composed. It was clear at a glance that he was a veteran of many battles and was definitely not simple.

Ye Liuyun was quite surprised when he heard that the guy was called Aiolia.

"Did I hear that right? Aiolia? No way, you're also called Aiolia? Are you the legendary Leo? Although we look different, our appearances are quite similar, and we're both Saints, hahaha." Ye Liuyun looked at this powerful figure from the Northern Continent named Aiolia, both amused and exasperated.

Lin Aoxue, who was standing to the side, looked puzzled when she saw Ye Liuyun laughing for no apparent reason.

"What are you laughing at?" Lin Aoxue asked.

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun immediately stood up and, like a child, struck some strange poses in front of Lin Aoxue, saying things that no one but Lin Aoxue could understand.

Lin Aoxue didn't understand what Ye Liuyun meant at first, but after seeing Ye Liuyun's pose and the names of some of his moves, she immediately understood.

For a moment, she also covered her mouth and laughed.

"Hehe, it really is true, Saint Seiya, Aiolia, what a coincidence." Lin Aoxue and Ye Liuyun laughed non-stop.

Ye Qingxue and the others watched their mother and mother chatting and laughing, wondering why they were so happy.

"Mom, what are you and Mother talking about? You seem to be having a good time. Tell me about it too," Ye Qingxue said.

"Go away, you wouldn't understand even if I told you. Only your mother knows what I mean." Ye Liuyun waved his hand at Ye Qingxue.

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingxue immediately made a face.

Ye Liuyun discovered that some extraterrestrial cultivators and cultivators from other continents always had something similar to certain fictional things on Earth.

Aiolia's opponent was a demon from a ten-star extraterrestrial planet, but not a particularly rare one; he came from the Ice Mammoth Clan on a cold planet.

This mammoth belongs to the ancient elephant tribe within the elephant race, and is stronger than the ordinary elephant tribe. There are no more ancient elephant tribes on the planet of the Burial God, but some tribes still survive on other stars in outer space.

“Alright, I’m ready. If you’re ready, you can make your move. Please.” Aiolia gestured for him to proceed, seemingly indicating that he had no intention of attacking first.

The mammoth cultivator was slightly displeased by Aiolia's confident demeanor.

But he also understood that there must be a reason why his opponent was ranked higher than him. He didn't have the methods of the Star Devourer Clan or the abilities of the Green Mud Clan, so he couldn't hold back. Judging from yesterday's battle, if he didn't use his full strength from the beginning, he might not even be able to use it before being eliminated by his opponent.

Losing isn't shameful; what's shameful is losing too quickly. He felt that even if the person in front of him was strong, he should at least exchange a few blows with them.

While there are instances of the weak defeating the strong, most cultivators with lower levels are still aware of their own limitations.

"Don't underestimate me! Let me show you the power of the mammoth race! Roar!" The mammoth cultivator unleashed a thunderous roar at Aiolia.

After the roar, a cold power erupted from his body, a power that had the effect of changing the climate and environment of the world. The star where he and Aiolia were located was quickly covered with ice and snow, and heavy snow began to fall from the sky.

It just seems a bit comical that it snows on a planet without an atmosphere.

After the planet turned into an ice planet, a huge white mammoth exuding a chilling aura emerged from the cold with heavy steps. This guy revealed his true form as soon as he made his move, intending to decide the outcome with one blow.

"Behold the strongest strike of my Ice Mammoth Clan! The sky will collapse and the earth will crumble!" The Mammoth Clan powerhouse charged straight at Aiolia, exuding overwhelming cold.

The power emanating from this guy actually tore open cracks in space.

This is the strongest attack of their mammoth clan. If this attack fails to produce any effect, it means that there is a significant gap between them and their opponent.

This Ice Mammoth cultivator did not increase his size. Enlarging has both advantages and disadvantages, and the attack he was currently using would not be affected by the size of his body.

Aiolia watched as the opponent approached with a blast of icy cold air, but instead of dodging, he calmly stood with his arms crossed, observing the opponent with an air of composure.

When the other party got within a hundred meters of him, a glint of electricity flashed in Aiolia's eyes. The next moment, the Ice Mammoth Clan cultivator was suddenly attacked as if by some unseen force, and it was a fierce and relentless onslaught.

The streak of light flashed past him rapidly, and he was attacked hundreds or even thousands of times in an instant before disappearing from his path and being teleported away.

Upon seeing this move, Ye Liuyun couldn't help but exclaim in surprise again.

"Holy crap, isn't that a plasma light-speed punch?"

Many people off the field didn't even realize that the game was over.

The eliminated mammoth cultivator returned to the audience seats, head bowed and silent, looking utterly dejected, because the gap between the two of them was quite large.

"One move? This guy's attack speed is so fast! He launched hundreds or even thousands of attacks at me in an instant. Although my physical defense is strong, I still couldn't withstand it. Sigh! The gap is indeed too big." He didn't seem too upset, after all, this result was expected.

On the other side of the main venue, the demon race looked solemn again, because another very powerful cultivator had appeared.

"This? Such a fast attack! Fellow Daoists from the Northern Continent, this person must be the strongest among your Northern Continent participants in this competition, right?" The Dragon Emperor spoke, looking at the group of cultivators wearing various colored armors. These people were naturally all cultivators from the Northern Continent.

The cultivators from the Northern Continent all appeared very calm, and they didn't seem to have any intention of hiding their abilities.

"Hmm, not bad. Aiolia is the strongest contestant from our Northern Continent this time. He has reached the level of a Seven-Star Saint. A Seven-Star Saint is roughly equivalent to the peak of the Reincarnation Realm in the Eastern Continent. However, he is still far inferior to that girl who reached the peak of the Thunder Tribulation Realm." A Nine-Star Saint from the Northern Continent said.

Indeed, compared to Lin Aoxue, Aiolia is quite inferior, but it cannot be said that he is not powerful. Among the contestants of the two races, the one whose strength is closest to Lin Aoxue's is a self-proclaimed cultivator of the Dragon Clan who has completed the Nirvana Secret Realm.

The most outstanding player in this match was Aiolia.

After Aiolia defeated his opponent and was teleported out, he looked at Ye Liuyun and his group with a fighting spirit in his eyes. A strong person would naturally disdain fighting a weak person.

His eyes were telling Lin Aoxue that he really wanted to get close to her.

Ye Liuyun also noticed that this guy was looking this way, so he followed his gaze and glanced at Lin Aoxue, who was also looking at Aiolia at the same time.

"What's wrong? Feeling the urge to fight again?" Ye Liuyun asked.

"Hehe, this person is a worthy opponent, at least much more interesting than most opponents," Lin Aoxue said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun rolled her eyes.

The competition continued, and the next match was against cultivators from the Immortal Realm of Longevity. One after another, they took to the stage and won. These cultivators were inferior in cultivation level and possessed numerous treasures, making them incredibly wealthy. Even the demon cultivators who were slightly stronger than them could not gain any advantage.

Yin Tong was not going to lose anyway; she just happened to encounter an extremely strange opponent.

"None of the cultivators in this Immortal Realm are kind-hearted. They have so many treasures and so many tricks up their sleeves. They really are rich and willful," many holy land lords on the human side thought to themselves.

They don't have that much money to spend on their elders and disciples.

Around noon, Yan Yu also got matched.

"Oh dear, it's my turn. I hope I'm matched with a strong opponent. It's been so many years since I've had a proper, satisfying battle," Yan Yu said with a smile as he stood up, looking at the light falling on him.

"Keep it up, big sister!" Ye Liuyun said with a smile.

Yan Yu nodded and was then teleported inside.

Yan Yu was still dressed in red, looking like a female swordsman. After she became a woman, her aesthetic sense changed a lot. She basically only wore red clothes, and all her accessories were also red.

Yan Yu has already reached the Reincarnation Realm, and considering his own physical condition, he is ranked as eleven stars.

The opponent matched with Yan Yu was a worthy opponent, as he was also an eleven-star cultivator from the Dragon Clan of the Western Continent. He was one of the strongest cultivators among the demons of the Western Continent, named Skana, whose true form was a nine-headed winged dragon with fire attributes.

"Haha, I've been matched with a cultivator of similar strength. This is going to be fun. However, I'm still a little disappointed. Why was I matched with a woman? It makes me hesitant to use my full strength." This Skarner in human form was a wild and burly man, over three meters tall. He mocked Yan Yu as soon as he stepped onto the stage.

This guy's tone made many female cultivators very dissatisfied.

"What do you mean by that? Are you looking down on us women?" many female cultivators said unhappily.

"Hey, what an arrogant guy, spouting nonsense like that. Big sister, you have to teach him a lesson." Ye Liuyun quickly added.

Yan Yu was not affected by this guy's words.

"You talk too much nonsense. Can we begin?" Yan Yu drew his sword, pointed it at Skarner, and asked with murderous intent.

When Skana saw that the woman in red's demeanor turned icy cold the moment she drew her sword, his expression immediately changed as well.

This guy is just habitually stubborn, but unfortunately he ended up criticizing Yan Yu.

"Alright, let's begin. Let me see the skills of you cultivators from the Eastern Continent—no, the skills of female cultivators," Skana added sarcastically.

"Hey, is this guy using a taunt skill? He can only keep bringing up the word 'woman' to make a fuss. Do they discriminate against female cultivators in the Western Continent cultivation world?" Ye Liuyun glanced at the Western Continent camp area and found that there were really few female cultivators sent by the Western Continent. Out of several hundred people, there were only a few scattered female cultivators.

Although everyone knows that female cultivators are generally weaker than male cultivators of the same level in the cultivation world, it's still a bit speechless to bring this up in public.

As soon as Skarner finished speaking, an endless killing intent burst forth. At the same time, the blood-red sword in Yan Yu's hand emitted a bloodthirsty sword light, which appeared in front of Skarner in an instant.

Skana's expression changed, and he quickly turned his head away, just as the blood-red sword light grazed the edge of his skull.

"So fast." Skana's initial contempt for the sword light before him began to fade.

Yan Yu's attacks did not stop; the killing intent emanating from him grew increasingly violent, and the power released from his sword began to multiply.

"Kill." Yan Yu swung his sword again, this time from top to bottom, aiming to cut Skana in two.

After the sword light appeared, it flashed across the ground, and the surface of the planet was instantly sliced ​​in half like a watermelon with a crack. This scene was quite astonishing.

As the sword light approached, Skana quickly raised his hand, transforming it into a dragon claw that grabbed the crimson sword light. The dragon claw was incredibly strong and was not severed by Yan Yu's sword, but it clearly could not withstand the attack for long. After resisting for a few seconds, a bloody mark appeared on the claw.

"What kind of power is this? Even my dragon claws, which I've tempered countless times, can't withstand it?" Skana quickly let go, using the force to dodge the attack.

His dodging only fueled Yan Yu's rage, and he unleashed several more ferocious sword strikes, cleaving the already halved planet into countless pieces in one fell swoop, causing it to completely crumble.

After the planet collapsed, Skana was blasted out of the star ruins by Yan Yu's blood-red sword light. He had already used his other dragon claw, and the two dragon claws gripped the sword light tightly.

Yan Yu's eyes were bloodshot, as if he had gone berserk, and he charged again with his sword. Before Skarner could even steady himself, he was about to suffer a second attack.

Without a second thought, he turned and ran, intending to take a detour first, because Yan Yu's power was too strange. Although he was clearly not as strong as him, he was still able to break through his physical defenses. There was a special corrosive force in the opponent's power.

If he hadn't forged his claws into weapons, his ordinary physical strength would have been insufficient to withstand Yan Yu's power.

Those watching from the sidelines were also surprised by Yan Yu's explosive fighting style. He seemed like a madman, only knowing how to attack, not how to defend, and unaware of fatigue.

"Tsk tsk, terrifying. Once Big Sister starts fighting, she's like a killing machine. She won't stop until she kills her target," Ye Liuyun exclaimed.

Skarner is currently on the defensive, not daring to reveal his true form. With such an exaggerated attack, if he were to reveal his true form, he would become an easy target for attacks.

He felt that since Yan Yu's sword strikes were so powerful, he couldn't possibly last long. If he could stall for time, Yan Yu would definitely lose.

As he continued to dodge, the cultivators outside the arena, especially the female cultivators, couldn't help but mock him.

"Hey! Is this all the demon race of the Western Continent is capable of? Didn't you look down on female cultivators the moment you opened your mouth? How come you're being beaten and running away with your tail between your legs? Stop running away and go back to fight head-on!" Some outgoing female cultivators shouted sarcastically.

As soon as one person stepped forward, a large group of people immediately responded. In an instant, the Western demons and Western cultivators all felt somewhat embarrassed, since Skarna was, after all, a cultivator from their side, and his words and actions often represented a region.

"What a boastful bastard, he's made us all lose face along with him." The people of the Western Continent were also cursing Skarner in their hearts.

But at the same time, they were even more surprised by Yan Yu's combat power. Her combat power was exaggerated. There were no fancy moves. It was just a series of terrifying sword lights. These sword lights were indestructible, and the power of each strike reached Yan Yu's current limit.

Yan Yu had just entered the early stage of the Reincarnation Realm, but each of his attacks had the power of someone in the late stage of the Reincarnation Realm.

This is somewhat like using a skill as a normal attack, so it's naturally like this. Also, this guy wanted to wear down Yan Yu, but in reality, every attack Yan Yu made was a normal attack, it's just that the opponent didn't know that.

Five minutes passed, and almost none of the stars in their battle space remained intact. Skarner was still fleeing, and his speed was much faster than Yan Yu's, making it difficult for Yan Yu to quickly defeat him.

"Impossible! What's with this woman's power? Could it be that she took Ye Liuyun's pill and has inexhaustible power? But that doesn't seem like it. This is clearly the power she's releasing herself!" Skana looked at Yan Yu, who was hot on his heels, and felt a chill run down his spine. He was exhausted, and his hands were covered in bloodstains.

If this continues, his dragon claws will be ruined.

"Damn it, I'm not running anymore, I'm going to fight you to the death!" Skana looked frustrated. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly stopped, turned around and faced Yan Yu who was chasing after him, and let out a dragon roar that resounded through the starry sky. The terrifying vibration and impact of the sound actually forced Yan Yu to stop.

Yan Yu then unleashed a sword strike, attempting to break through the barrier of power. However, Skarner was no weakling; in terms of strength, she was even stronger than Yan Yu. She was simply a little disoriented by Yan Yu's series of maneuvers.

Yan Yu's sword strike failed to penetrate the opponent's attack, and he was immediately knocked away.

"Huh? So weak?" Seeing this, Skarner gave up revealing his true form, because he realized that although his opponent's attack power was terrifying, his defense was surprisingly weak. His attack just now didn't have much power, but Yan Yu couldn't even block it.

Yan Yu was blown tens of thousands of meters away before she regained her balance, but just then, Skana appeared in front of her.

"Hmph! So that's how it is. Your attack power is strong, but your defense is terrible. Take this!" Skarna raised its dragon claw and smashed it down on Yan Yu.

Yan Yu immediately swung his sword back, but Skarner dodged it. Skarner's attack, however, struck Yan Yu precisely. The blow was incredibly powerful, as if a sun had appeared in the sky. Yan Yu was then sent flying like a meteor through the exploding flames, clearly unable to withstand Skarner's attack.

"What? How did the situation suddenly reverse?" The cultivators outside the arena were dumbfounded.

Originally, it was Skarner who was passively taking the beating, but now it's Yan Yu who's passively taking the beating.

Chapter 837 Tribulation Transcending the Competition (5000 words)

The situation suddenly reversed, and the human cultivators immediately became tense. They certainly didn't want to see their high-end combat power defeated by the demon race.

"What? What's going on? Why can't Big Sister beat him all of a sudden?" Ye Liuyun was a little confused. After thinking for a moment, she looked at Chen Yao.

Chen Yao looked at Yan Yu, who was being driven back on the battlefield, but did not show any worry.

“This guy has found my weakness, Third Sister. You don’t know this, but my weakness is in defense. Once I can’t attack and am forced to defend, this is the situation we are in now. After all, there is a clear difference in strength between you and this guy,” Chen Yao said.
