162: Competitions are not routine tasks!
It still looked like a chip.
But it was absolutely not that scientific gadget.
Morning Dew spread her six wings, deploying the Holy Light Barrier; the Holy Light swept rapidly across the spectator stands.
Just at that moment, while Morning Dew was inspecting everyone...
Morning Dew suddenly discovered something!
Her gaze fixed sharply on a contestant in the stands.
This was an Incan contestant.
The moment this Incan branch contestant saw that holy priestess staring at him...
...he suddenly acted like a mouse seeing a cat!
"Ah! I haven't done anything yet."
He let out a scream.
Then he ran off to the side.
In the blink of an eye, the medical kit to his right suddenly exploded.
Dozens of bronze syringes floated up within the Holy Light.
Inside the needles, some liquid star sand was floating.
Morning Dew's genetic chains, which had been affected by the heavenly dao contamination, instantly resonated with them.
—These were all things capable of contaminating the human body!
"Over here!"
Morning Dew shouted anxiously.
The other girls also reacted.
They all rushed toward the location.
"Stop her!" Ning Xiwei arrived first, manipulating bone puppets to form a massive Soul-Locking Array. A skeleton, covered in Undead Fire, reached out to grab the syringes, but the moment it touched them, the liquid inside instantly mutated into a bronze color.
As for the Mayan priest being suppressed by Lu Chen, only a broken corpse remained.
He glared viciously at Lu Chen, muttering something strange.
Lu Chen watched the fellow, ready for anything.
Suddenly, the Mayan priest's head exploded, and asphalt-like material mixed with crystal shards shot toward Lu Chen!
Lu Chen drew his sword to block, the Sword Qi deflecting all of the projectiles.
However, a sinister, eerie light still shot toward Morning Dew in the sky!
Then, a malicious voice, seemingly fading into the distance, rang out:
—The Sower, return to your place!
"Morning Dew, watch out!"
Lu Chen let out a loud shout and flew toward Morning Dew the next instant.
These guys' targets were still people like Ignis and Morning Dew.
The Heavenly Dao still wanted to use the two women as its best propagation vessels.
Such a thing was absolutely not allowed to happen.
The tianwen sword in Lu Chen's hand became even more violent.
Carrying an incomparably powerful Sword Intent!
Even Lu Chen's face began to turn into bone.
He was clearly beginning to channel the power of his Origin.
He arrived at the scene!
Lu Chen's speed was extreme.
He actually transformed into a streak of rapid light.
Trailing a stream of Undead Fire behind him.
It streaked across the sky.
At the last moment, Lu Chen beat the eerie light to protect Morning Dew from behind.
Morning Dew also reacted, but it was just a matter of the blink of an eye.
The eerie light was fast, Morning Dew was fast, but Lu Chen was faster!
Lu Chen's speed was practically reaching the speed of light.
Lu Chen's tianwen sword severed space and time, his Sword Qi carving a vacuum corridor through the rainforest.
Ignis grabbed Morning Dew and retreated rapidly, her Flame Demon armor sizzling under the impact of the asphalt!
"This stuff is even more disgusting than the Pope's holy water!" Ignis frowned slightly, looking displeased.
The lava tattoos on Ignis flared with flame patterns.
She swung her greatsword, condensing a Purgatory Phoenix in the Void Realm, incinerating all the approaching asphalt material into wisps of dust.
Shelley also arrived in the sky immediately, summoning an ice crystal matrix to shroud the entire field.
Her hexagonal ice flowers bloomed in the heavy rain.
"Storm Barrier!"
Shelley's ice-blue long hair was covered in frost crystals; Absolute Zero even froze the circulation of all magic power nearby.
As long as it didn't belong to their side.
And wasn't a target Shelley had approved.
No one's magic power could be easily channeled.
Ning Xiwei took the opportunity to manipulate the bone puppets, climbing up the miniature pyramid.
One by one, the self-destructing skeletons turned into Undead Fire and sharp blades, stabbing directly into the eye sockets of the crystal skulls here.
—Smashing them to pieces!
When the last crystal skull shattered, the rainforest illusion formation receded like the tide.
The Mayan contestant in the center of the jade arena had long since turned into a bronze statue.
Some bronze shards fell off his body.
As for the guy who ran away, he was still clutching half a syringe in his hand.
The Elders of the Cultivation Alliance descended to cast Seal barriers, while the observers in the judges' seats automatically recorded the bronze star sand and took it away immediately.
These observers were all sent by the Five Great Nations.
Among them were observers from Huaxia.
Each was an expert starting at the Sixth Rank.
Though they couldn't compare to Lu Chen now.
After all, the girls were already Seventh Rank powerhouses.
Even Ning Xiwei showed signs of a Breakthrough to the Eighth Rank!
Lu Chen landed on the ground, looked at the girls, and nodded slightly, saying:
"It's all over, let's go back!"
"Mm."
The girls nodded in response.
They all followed Lu Chen to the teleportation array location.
The next moment, they teleported back to Kunlun Academy.
The next day.
Kunlun Academy.
In the medical room, Morning Dew's genetic analyzer emitted a harsh sound.
Shelley's ice crystals were suppressing the bronze veins appearing on her six wings. "The heavenly dao contamination is even more overbearing than we thought. However, Lu Chen's Power of the Undead is indeed pulling and even changing these powerful contaminating forces. Although the Heavenly Dao's power is overbearing, it is also constantly strengthening Morning Dew's power. The star sand inside her body is like rewriting her mitochondrial DNA; it's very miraculous, but the girl has pulled through it all."
Lu Chen wiped the asphalt residue off the tianwen sword; the jade ring on the sword tassel reflected the eerie markings on the back of Ignis's neck—that was the lingering brand of the Purgatory Phoenix.
Ever since Ignis returned from the star.
Every time she unleashed her power, as long as she had a Breakthrough of her shackles.
She would gain new power.
The lava-like tattoos on her body would also take on different appearances.
The girl's face was as beautiful and clean as ever.
These fiery red tattoos on her body added a bit of spicy sexiness.
Lu Chen was simply appreciating the beauty.
Then, he couldn't help but reach out his hand.
"Don't touch! It's ticklish!" Ignis slapped away his reaching hand; her lava tattoos reacted instinctively, almost heating up and about to burst into flames again!
But fortunately, she held it back.
Then Ignis looked at Lu Chen, sizing him up, and asked with some concern:
"I'm perfectly fine, but you... your crystallization has completely stopped, right?"
As Ignis spoke.
In the shadows of the medical room, the pupils of a busy nurse flashed with the starlight of the eye of guixu.
As always.
Lu Chen arrived at the Heavenly Secret Pavilion.
He saw the Grand Elder there, organizing intelligence analysis.
"Grand Elder, how was this time?"
"Mr. Lu, you've come just in time. Look at this—this time, from an environmental perspective alone, many things are very helpful to us. Look at this report..."
