92: Chapter 91 Covert Intervention
"However, what I did not expect is that to Cultivate this Formation, Duanmu Yang actually embarked on the path of Soul Refining."
"And within just a few years, without his Realm falling behind because of it, he is even able to unleash the Black Tortoise Formation from the Four Symbols Array!"
"This person's talent for cultivation is truly terrifying!" Zheng Chen exclaimed.
Speaking of this, Zheng Chen seemed to think of something else. With a solemn expression, he glanced toward Yuan Hua and murmured.
"Under the gaze of everyone, Duanmu Yang killed Daoist Hong Jian. This is clearly a declaration of an irreconcilable feud with the Xiantian Sword Sect!"
"In the next few rounds of the competition, his situation is likely to be dangerous."
Chen Zhiwen's lips curled slightly. "Wouldn't that make it even more interesting?"
Zheng Chen smiled bitterly, said no more, and quietly watched the screen high in the air.
Casualties in competitions between Cultivators are inevitably unavoidable. Although the void supreme treasure is present this time, regarding the death of Daoist Hong Jian...
Although the Sword Cultivators in Ten Thousand Swords City felt shocked, they recovered their composure after a moment.
The competition within the void supreme treasure continued. Following the death of Daoist Hong Jian, other defeated Sword Cultivators were teleported out one after another.
Of the original one hundred Sword Cultivators, after two rounds of competition, only twenty-five Sword Cultivators remained within the void supreme treasure.
After leaving a brief rest period for these twenty-five people, the third round of the competition began again.
And in this round of the competition, due to the number of people, one match was destined to have three people fighting for a single spot.
After the void supreme treasure divided the competition arenas again, the Sword Cultivators in Ten Thousand Swords City keenly noticed that Duanmu Yang had been grouped with two other Sword Cultivators.
Needless to say, only one of these three could advance to the next round of the competition.
Some Sword Cultivators in the city also noticed that Duanmu Yang's two opponents were both experts from the Xiantian Sword Sect.
Seeing this, many people's expressions revealed a hint of strangeness, and their gazes involuntarily glanced toward Yuan Hua's direction.
Although half of the Sword Cultivators who entered this round were experts from the Xiantian Sword Sect.
But to encounter two competitors at once, and for both of these people to be from the Xiantian Sword Sect...
This could not help but make people suspect that it was Yuan Hua playing tricks in the dark to avenge Daoist Hong Jian.
Yuan Hua noticed the gazes of others, but his face showed no change. He sat calmly on his chair, sneering inwardly.
That's right, it was he who had secretly intervened, swapping Duanmu Yang's opponents this time for two people from the Xiantian Sword Sect.
But even so, who would dare to come out and question him?
Today, this 'green peck' would inevitably fall into the hands of the Xiantian Sword Sect!
And this young Sword Cultivator who suddenly jumped out to become an enemy of the Xiantian Sword Sect must also die!
Just a moment ago, Yuan Hua had secretly transmitted his voice to the people from the Xiantian Sword Sect inside the void supreme treasure, telling them to feel free to strike and kill Duanmu Yang.
As for the intervention of the void supreme treasure, he would handle it.
"It looks like Duanmu Yang's luck today is not very good!" In the restaurant private room, Chen Zhiwen said with a playful smile.
Zheng Chen's expression became exceptionally ugly, as if he had been slapped hard in the face, turning a terrifying shade of iron-blue.
His eyes burned with raging anger, as if it were about to erupt.
Everyone present was not a fool; they could see the clues at a glance—this was clearly a petty trick played by Yuan Hua behind the scenes!
This behavior of Yuan Hua was a blatant trampling on the rules established by the Great Yu Imperial Dynasty.
However, although Zheng Chen was filled with resentment, he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said to Chen Zhiwen with a bit of shame: "I have really made a fool of myself in front of Brother Zhiwen. I never expected that Yuan Hua would be so unscrupulous, daring to intervene in this matter so blatantly."
After finishing, Zheng Chen paused for a moment and then added: "After I return to the Great Yu Imperial Dynasty, I will definitely report this matter to my Father Emperor exactly as it happened."
Chen Zhiwen did not seem to care much about Zheng Chen's words. He just waved his hand dismissively and said indifferently: "This is just an internal matter of your Great Yu Imperial Dynasty; what does it have to do with me?"
However, changing the subject, Chen Zhiwen suddenly revealed a look of contempt and continued: "However, come to think of it, this Yuan Hua is truly incredibly stupid! He is, after all, an older generation Sword Dao expert; how could he be so foolish?"
"Does he really think that just by relying on those two people from the Xiantian Sword Sect, he can pose any substantial threat to Duanmu Yang?" Chen Zhiwen's tone was filled with disdain. "This kind of thinking is simply ridiculous!"
Chen Zhiwen expressed his contempt for Yuan Hua without any concealment. As a fellow Dual Cultivator, Chen Zhiwen naturally knew the terrifying nature of Dual Cultivation.
Within the same Realm, Sword Cultivators are inherently supreme in slaughter and have few rivals.
In addition to possessing the Sword Dao Legacy of the Solitary Sword Pavilion, Duanmu Yang had also successfully Cultivated the Black Tortoise Formation from the Four Symbols Array.
In Chen Zhiwen's view, those people from the Xiantian Sword Sect were undoubtedly a bunch of rabble in front of Duanmu Yang; he would kill as many as came!
Just as Chen Zhiwen thought, inside the void supreme treasure.
When Duanmu Yang saw that his opponents in this round were actually two experts from the Xiantian Sword Sect, his expression did not change in the slightest, as if all of this was within his expectations.
He just stared quietly at the two of them, his eyes revealing a kind of indifference and calmness.
"State your names. My sword does not kill the nameless!" Duanmu Yang's voice was calm, his gaze like a torch, staring straight at the two experts from the Xiantian Sword Sect.
Hearing Duanmu Yang's words, the two Xiantian Sword Sect experts opposite him revealed looks of fury simultaneously.
They had all learned from Yuan Hua about Duanmu Yang killing Daoist Hong Jian just now, and their hearts were already filled with anger and killing intent.
Originally, they had been looking forward to seeing the scene of Duanmu Yang begging for mercy on his knees when facing them, but now, Duanmu Yang's arrogant attitude made them completely unable to bear it.
"Junior, remember this: this seat is the Second Elder of the Xiantian Sword Sect, Daoist Ling Jian!" one of them roared, his voice echoing in the air like thunder.
"This seat is the Grand Elder of the Xiantian Sword Sect, Daoist Feng Jian!" the other one shouted immediately after, his voice also filled with majesty and anger.
Before the words had faded, a powerful Sword Intent erupted from both their bodies, sweeping over like surging waves.
This Sword Intent carried endless pressure, making people feel a kind of irresistible force.
At the same time, they pinched incantations with both hands, chanting words in their mouths. Two rays of light shot out from their hands, transforming into two precious swords that buzzed in the air, flashing with cold light.
These two precious swords were clearly not ordinary items; they flew rapidly in the air, streaking across the sky like meteors, heading straight for Duanmu Yang with fierce Sword Qi.
