Chapter 776: Arrogant Luo Sheng!

"Not good."

Yan Wuchen’s face paled.

He once again used Silver Waterfall Spanning the Sky, but this time, his move could not block the opponent’s overbearing spear strike.

Boom!

Golden light erupted.

The Fourth Knight was incredibly domineering, and with a single spear thrust, he directly sent Yan Wuchen flying off the arena.

In this battle, the Fourth Knight won.

"This Fourth Knight’s strength is also quite formidable. He is already infinitely close to a Spirit Manifestation Realm expert."

Li Yun’s expression was solemn.

A person with such strength only ranked fourth among the six knights. He did not even enter the top three.

Moreover, these six knights were merely followers of Huang Tianlin.

If the followers were already this powerful, it was hard to imagine what kind of terrifying strength Huang Tianlin himself possessed.

In the following battle, it was the turn of the successor of the Saint Manifestation Eye to take the stage.

This purple-robed youth’s real name was Luo Sheng.

His opponent, like Li Yun, possessed strength between the second and third tiers and could not be considered weak.

"Ice Spike Technique."

On the arena, Luo Sheng’s expression was arrogant.

He did not bother saying even a single word to his opponent and directly unleashed his move.

Within his pupils, the phantom of an ice spike emerged.

Then, that phantom actually floated out from the depths of his pupils and transformed into a physical form.

Whoosh!

The speed of that ice spike was extremely fast.

The moment it appeared, it directly struck his opponent’s left chest. Cold qi rapidly spread, causing the man to freeze in place instantly, unable to move.

Luo Sheng casually struck out with his palm, sending the opponent flying out of the arena and completing the defeat in a single move.

The three great eye pupils of the Northern Territory each had their own merits and controlled different domains.

The Blazing Current Divine Eye was best at the Dao of fire control.

The Ghost-Seizing Evil Eye leaned toward eerie and insidious methods, focusing mainly on corroding and capturing the enemy’s soul.

As for using the soul to interfere with matter and transforming illusion into reality, that was the power of the Saint Manifestation Eye. It often caught opponents off guard and defeated them before they even realized what was happening.

Compared to Xie Yanluo, Luo Sheng’s strength was clearly even greater.

Next, the matches proceeded rapidly.

In Li Yun’s second and third matches, his opponents were not strong, so he defeated them easily using only Illusion-Extinguishing Sword Pupil.

In the fourth battle, his opponent was somewhat stronger and possessed strength between the second and third tiers, but he was still no match for Li Yun.

After four battles, Li Yun had accumulated four victories.

Meanwhile, the Fourth Knight and Luo Sheng had also won four matches each.

Following closely behind were Yan Wuchen and Xie Yanluo. Both of them had each lost one match, but they still had a chance to advance, and that possibility was not low.

Finally, during the fifth battle, Li Yun encountered a powerful opponent.

This opponent was precisely the successor of the Saint Manifestation Eye, Luo Sheng.

"Li Yun, being able to defeat Xie Yanluo means you have greatly exceeded my expectations."

On the arena, Luo Sheng still looked full of arrogance. His attitude toward Li Yun remained as if he were looking down from above.

He said proudly, "However, I am not trash like Xie Yanluo. You could defeat him, but you absolutely cannot defeat me."

"Then let our skills do the talking."

Li Yun spoke indifferently.

He did not want to waste words. If the opponent wanted to prove that he was stronger, then he should use strength to speak.

"Ice Spike Technique."

Luo Sheng did not intend to continue speaking either.

In his eyes, several phantoms of ice spikes emerged.

Then, those ice spikes left his pupils at the same time, became real, and shot toward Li Yun.

Clearly, although Luo Sheng had spoken with disdain toward Li Yun, he was actually somewhat wary. The moment he attacked, he used several ice spikes.

"Seven Slaughter Fist."

Li Yun activated the eighth stage of Ninefold Origin Flesh Scripture, Undying Origin Body.

A dazzling white light erupted from his body.

At this moment, his physical strength surged out like a torrent. Even while holding back a great deal of power, he possessed strength comparable to top experts at the 9th level of Heavenly Core Realm.

After all, Undying Origin Body could provide him with raw strength rivaling the Spirit Manifestation Realm. There was no need for him to reveal its full might here.

He suddenly threw a punch.

The several ice spikes simultaneously disintegrated and shattered.

"Stupid."

Seeing this scene, Luo Sheng showed no surprise. Instead, disdain appeared on his face as he sneered. "As expected of a piece of trash. You have fallen for it."

Crash!

The ice spikes shattered by Li Yun suddenly transformed back into illusion at the same time.

Every fragment formed a small ice spike phantom, then all of them shot toward Li Yun at once.

In the next moment, those ice spike phantoms directly descended into Li Yun’s soul space.

Caught off guard, more than half of Li Yun’s soul space was frozen.

This even affected his own soul, causing the speed of his thoughts to become sluggish.

"Ignorant fool."

Luo Sheng sneered. "Did you really think the grand Saint Manifestation Eye only possessed the ability to turn illusion into reality? If so, you have underestimated the Three Great Eye Bloodlines far too much."

"I might as well tell you. The true power of the Saint Manifestation Eye does not lie merely in turning illusion into reality. Its true strength lies in freely switching between illusion and reality, between the soul level and the material level."

"In this battle, you lose."

His figure flickered.

Although he specialized in bloodline eye pupils, his speed was not slow at all.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared beside Li Yun.

Then, with a disdainful smile on his face, he struck out with a palm, intending to knock Li Yun off the arena.

"What a pity."

In the spectator stands, Elder Bai Jing sighed softly, and a look of disappointment appeared on his face.

If Li Yun had defeated Luo Sheng, perhaps he would have had a chance to advance from this group and enter the final Ranking Matches.

But if he lost here, there was no doubt that advancing would become impossible.

After all, the Fourth Knight and Yan Wuchen were figures whose strength was not inferior to Luo Sheng’s. If Li Yun could not defeat Luo Sheng, he was unlikely to defeat them either.

"You are celebrating too early."

But just then, Li Yun’s indifferent voice suddenly rang out.

That calm voice was like a sudden clap of thunder on a clear day, instantly jolting everyone’s hearts.

Seeing that he was about to be struck by Luo Sheng, Li Yun’s three souls simultaneously mobilized powerful soul energy. They struck fiercely and directly shattered the phantom ice spikes within his soul space.

"Seven Slaughter Fist."

Then, Li Yun’s speed became as fast as lightning.

In a flash, he threw a punch and struck Luo Sheng squarely in the chest.

"Ah!"

Luo Sheng let out a wretched scream as his body flew out like a cannonball and shot straight off the arena.

He was defeated on the spot.
