581: Chapter 581 Fierce Battle (Part Two)

"Damned ant!"

Chi Zhongtian's mouth twitched involuntarily, his fingertips digging into his palm without him even realizing it as he glared deathly at Xiao Chen, and then he tapped a finger on his forehead.

The Aura around his body instantly dissipated, then began to surge wildly until it finally crossed the boundary of the Nascent Soul Stage.

Spirit Transformation Stage First Level!

This scene left everyone present dumbfounded.

The leap from the Nascent Soul Stage to the Soul Transformation Stage seemed like a small Realm, but for the Chaotic Undying Body, it was a hundredfold increase in combat power.

Wan Juechen, Wan Tianpeng, Ying Tianqi, the Ancestor of the Gangli Clan, Liu Luoying, and Ji Wushuang—these Deity Transformation Ancestors all stood up simultaneously, their pupils shrinking.

One must know that Chi Zhongtian was only fifty years old! Meanwhile, the former Genius of Zhongzhou, True Lord Yuntian, took eight hundred years to advance to the Soul Transformation Stage!

Tang Feng's fingers trembled, and he spoke incoherently from shock, "He... he... a Soul Transformation Stage Cultivator!"

As a Spirit Realm Cultivator, the shock in his heart was even more direct.

Even in the Spirit Realm where Spiritual Qi was abundant, it was impossible for a super Genius who could advance to the Soul Transformation Stage at the age of fifty to appear!

Not to mention the Spiritual Qi-depleted Cangxuan Star.

No one noticed the flash of irony beneath Tang Youlan's calm gaze.

Chi Zhongtian spread his arms, and with a thought, the five-hundred-mile arena space was instantly filled with earthy-yellow profound light.

In the next instant, all that earthy-yellow profound light turned into yellow sand filling the sky, weaving through the Void Realm like flowing water.

Xiao Chen immediately became alert, his Divine Thought constantly scanning the surrounding area.

However, the freely flowing yellow sand seemed to be everywhere, yet silent.

A chill came from behind; without thinking, Xiao Chen instantly activated the zhutian cloak and teleported to the edge of the arena's barrier.

At the spot where he had just stood, a fist qi condensed from yellow sand dissipated into nothingness.

"Gravity Domain!"

Chi Zhongtian gave a low growl, his tone incredibly indifferent, as if Xiao Chen had already become an ant in his eyes.

Xiao Chen's figure suddenly stalled as invisible pressure descended from the sky.

A chill approached again, and this time, he suddenly realized that his teleportation distance had been compressed by ninety percent.

His movement speed was also greatly reduced, and his entire body felt as if it were being crushed by ten thousand mountains.

"Boom!"

A violent fist qi struck suddenly without any warning.

Xiao Chen subconsciously raised the zhu tian sword, blocking it in front of his chest.

Clang!

A piercing sword hum rang out; the black blade of the zhu tian sword instantly bent, and the terrifying force subsequently landed on Xiao Chen's chest.

Even with the Earth Flame True Fire protecting his body, he was still sent flying, crashing heavily against the arena's barrier.

Xiao Chen's vision went dark, and before he could recover from the Chaos, an earthy-yellow fist qi struck his chest again.

"Pfft!"

A mouthful of blood spurted out, his chest instantly caved in, and his consciousness seemed to drift away.

Following that, terrifying fist qis struck Xiao Chen's body like raindrops, and the sound of bones shattering clearly reached everyone's ears.

"Damned ant, do you now know the gap between you and this Young Master? I was just toying with you earlier!

Weren't you able to teleport just now? Why can't you run anymore?

Do you think you're worthy of fighting this Young Master? Do you even have the qualification? I only need to move a finger to turn you to ashes!"

Chi Zhongtian narrowed his eyes, staring at the wounded Xiao Chen, taking this opportunity to vent all the resentment in his heart.

He clenched his palm, and in an instant, the arena floor tiles within a five-hundred-mile radius arched up.

The yellow sand in the sky quickly condensed into solid rock, manifesting five sky-piercing giant peaks like an upward-facing Five Finger Mountain.

Xiao Chen lay in the center of the giant palm, dripping with blood, but his gaze was exceptionally firm.

In the air, another sky-covering giant palm was rapidly condensing, and amidst the screams of the crowd, it slammed shut downward, completely burying Xiao Chen inside.

"Xiao Chen!"

Yun Zhiyi, Liu Yiyi, Dan Rui, and Ying Yu all stood up at the same time, crying out in alarm, but they could only watch helplessly as Xiao Chen disappeared beneath the rocks.

This was a competition, and no one could stop it; as long as Xiao Chen did not admit defeat, he would be subject to unlimited attacks.

Liu Luoying and Ji Wushuang clenched their fists, staring at Chi Zhongtian's figure, their killing intent almost condensing into substance.

Tang Feng slightly turned his head, watching the Haotian Holy Maiden's reaction, seemingly a bit surprised that she had not intervened in such a critical moment.

If she didn't intervene, at this rate, Xiao Chen would surely be beaten to death!

From the seats, gaze after gaze stared fixedly at the center of the arena; almost everyone was hoping for a miracle to happen.

However, there was no movement for a long time.

"Is it going to end?"

"It looks like the Pure Yang Sacred Body has lost. What a pity; he lost because of the difference in Realm."

"This is unfair! A Soul Transformation Stage Chaotic Undying Body is using his Realm to suppress a Nascent Soul Stage Pure Yang Sacred Body!"

"The tournament rules only restricted age, not cultivation level, so how is it unfair?"

...

Chi Zhongtian slowly turned around, looking at the shocked faces in the seats, his heart filled with satisfaction.

He had finally wiped away his former humiliation and vindicated the Chaotic Undying Body.

Then, he slowly looked toward Yun Canghai. "Referee, I think the match should be over."

Yun Canghai opened his mouth, but before he could announce it, a green light emanated from the cracks in the rocks.

"He hasn't lost yet!"

A cry of alarm came from the seats, instantly drawing everyone's gaze back to the center of the arena, where a brilliant green light was being released from beneath the giant rocks.

Chi Zhongtian turned around in confusion. "Hmm?"

Crack!

Cobweb-like cracks rapidly spread across the giant rock hand.

Subsequently, green vines seeped out from within, quickly bursting the giant rock hand apart, sending stone fragments flying everywhere.

And Xiao Chen's figure was lying in a cradle woven from vines, his injuries almost completely healed.

There was no longer any sign of injury.

The sturdy vines had formed an arched cradle that perfectly protected his body.

Xiao Chen stepped out with a relaxed expression. "Sorry, it felt like being tickled; I almost fell asleep from the beating."

The Deity Transformation Ancestors' eyes bulged as if they had fallen into a dream.

Meanwhile, Xiao Chen's Dao Companions were all crying with joy.

The entire arena erupted once again.

"How can such a thing happen?"

Yun Canghai couldn't figure it out no matter how much he racked his brain, and then his expression changed drastically as his pupils shrank. "Could it be..."

"Your Highness Saintess, what is the situation? How can his recovery ability be so strong?" Tang Feng asked with a look of confusion.

"I'm not sure."

Tang Youlan shook her head. Xiao Chen's injuries earlier were real and definitely hadn't escaped her eyes, and the healing before her was also real.

She muttered to herself in her heart:

"Compared to his recovery speed, the fact that the Wood Spirit Pearl is full is something that makes me even more curious."

"What Wood Spirit Pearl?"
