Chapter 805: Monk vs Wushang!

In the fifteenth round, he fought the First Knight. The same went for him too.

After three moves, he defeated his opponent with Slow Sword and secured victory.

This battle officially established his position in the top five. In the same round, Xie Wushang defeated Man Tao, and with this, the top-five spots were all set.

Li Yun, Huang Tianlin, the Wine Monk, Luo Zhenting, and Xie Wushang successfully ranked among the top five of this Heaven’s Chosen Assembly.

As for their exact rankings, that would depend on the final four rounds of competition.

Additionally, in the previous round, Man Tao defeated the First Knight. This meant that he had already secured sixth place in advance.

As for seventh place, it would be decided between Su Zimo and the First Knight. In the upcoming matches, whoever won would be seventh, and the loser would be eighth.

In the sixteenth round, it was finally Li Yun’s turn to fight Xie Wushang.

This battle was likewise incredibly fierce.

Xie Wushang’s ability to defeat Man Tao proved that his strength was naturally extremely formidable. However, after a period of intense entanglement, Li Yun still emerged victorious.

After this battle, Xie Wushang’s ranking was fixed at fifth place, while Li Yun was at least fourth.

As for whether he could enter the top three, that would depend on the final three rounds.

In the same round, the three super-tier experts finally fought among themselves for the first time.

The two sides of the battle were Luo Zhenting of the Profound Origin Immortal Sect and the Wine Monk of the Golden Lotus Buddhist Kingdom.

"Nine Extremes Killing Formation."

Facing the Wine Monk, Luo Zhenting’s expression was extremely solemn.

This battle was different from before. His opponent was a genius on the same level as himself. If he did not take this seriously, he would very likely lose.

As soon as he stepped onto the battlefield, he directly deployed a terrifying killing formation.

That killing formation had a total of nine domains: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Thunder, Light, and Darkness.

The domains formed by these nine types of energy fused and tangled with one another, weaving together and giving rise to even more powerful changes. Each individual domain was already an extremely terrifying killing formation. When fused together, they became even more horrific.

"What a powerful formation."

Xie Wushang and the others all changed expression.

Only now did they realize that in his previous battles, Luo Zhenting had still been hiding his true strength.

Otherwise, as long as he had brought out this formation, those matches would not even have needed to continue. His opponents would have been disastrously defeated in an instant.

The killing formation rapidly spread outward.

In the blink of an eye, it completely enveloped the Wine Monk. Suddenly, terrifying energy rippled within the formation as countless killing moves emerged and drowned down toward him.

"Amitabha."

The Wine Monk chanted a long Buddhist name.

He pressed his palms together and began chanting quietly under his breath.

The next moment, an incredible scene appeared.

Golden light and blood-colored light rose simultaneously from behind him.

The golden light transformed into a Golden-Bodied Buddha with a peaceful face, filled with compassion for the world and shining with brilliant radiance.

The blood-colored light transformed into a Blood Demon Buddha. Although it had the body of a Buddha, its entire being was filled with intense blood light and killing intent, while its eyes shone with bloodthirsty radiance.

One was a Golden-Bodied Buddha, and the other was a Blood Demon Buddha.

Yet their bodies were closely pressed together, as if they were conjoined twins. They were two sides of one body, incomparably miraculous and strangely harmonious.

"This is actually the Yin-Yang Virtuous Evil Buddha Dharma Idol."

"No wonder the Wine Monk has such a high status in the Golden Lotus Buddhist Kingdom. It turns out that he is the reincarnation of the Wheel-Turning Holy King Buddha."

This scene caused everyone to cry out in surprise.

The experienced seniors and famous figures were especially shaken to the core.

As one of the Five Supreme Factions of the Northern Territory, the Golden Lotus Buddhist Kingdom had produced many experts over countless years, including many king-level powerhouses.

Among all the experts in the history of the Golden Lotus Buddhist Kingdom, the Wheel-Turning Holy King Buddha could rank in the top three.

Originally, this Wheel-Turning Holy King Buddha had been a great devil head who caused countless slaughters and was stained with the blood of innumerable people.

Several king-level Buddhas had hunted him down, but he had remained reckless. Instead of restraining himself, he became even more insane, destroying countries and slaughtering cities at will.

Finally, his actions angered the Buddha.

The Buddha personally acted and suppressed him beneath Sumeru Sacred Mountain, chanting scriptures day and night to preach the essence of the Buddhist Dao.

In the end, he was moved by the Buddha and attained enlightenment in a single morning.

He laid down his butcher’s blade and became a Buddha on the spot, directly becoming a Golden-Bodied Buddha level great power of the Buddhist Dao.

Not only that, but he even combined the Buddhist Dao and the Demonic Dao to create the Yin-Yang Virtuous Evil Buddha Dharma Idol.

Two sides shared one body.

One side was Buddha, and one side was demon.

The combination of the two allowed him to directly become a top-tier existence among king-level powerhouses.

Unfortunately, the Wheel-Turning Holy King Buddha failed while facing the Great Tribulation of the Imperial Dao and ultimately fell.

At that time, the entire Golden Lotus Buddhist Kingdom mourned for three full months.

Who would have thought that the Wine Monk was actually the reincarnation of such a great power?

Boom!

In the next moment, the Wine Monk directly attacked.

He pressed his palms together in the posture of a lion’s roar, and the Yin-Yang Virtuous Evil Buddha Dharma Idol erupted with light. Golden and blood-colored radiance intertwined as it struck out with a single palm toward the Nine Extremes Killing Formation.
