Chapter 4329: The High Reward for Linhu Liji's Capture

ould immediately leave this place.Reaching the bamboo hut halfway up the mountain, he pulled up Long Xiaoyue who was already waiting there. The two of them fled together down the mountain.After the re..."Just a moment, please."

Unexpectedly, the usually silent Linghu Liji called a halt to the drawing of lots and then whispered something to Duanmu Feng.

"The Palace Master has decreed a reward for the winner of this Holy Spirit Assembly, granting them one Sacred Dao Fruit."

As soon as Duanmu Feng spoke, the atmosphere at the scene exploded.

The guh ling dao guo is a legendary existence for many powerful individuals. Legend has it that after consuming it, a cultivator's cultivation level will see a drastic increase, most notably in their mental power, which will undergo a qualitative leap.

This kind of Dao Fruit's level is extremely high, surpassing even those at the peak of the ninth order. Few people have ever seen it before, and they all thought it was just a legend. Unexpectedly, the Palace Master of Wanxiang Palace actually took it out as the reward for the competition today.

"My God, there's really a Huling Dao Fruit!"

"What a pity, I'm not capable enough to get such a good thing…"

"The Palace Master is too generous! Using the Huiling Dao Fruit as a reward, what a lavish gift, absolutely lavish..."

There was a buzz of excitement among the crowd, with expressions of glee on faces like Ding Yuan and Luo Jiseng. In their eyes, this prize was as good as already in the grasp of the Demon King.

Ye Bufan frowned slightly. It was obvious that the other party had already guessed that the Immortal Ancestor had reincarnated. Even if they didn't suspect him, they shouldn't have given it to the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts.

Before, the continuous attacks indicated their intention to kill Ye Junxie. But now, by offering such a generous reward, what are they trying to do

A weasel greeting a chicken for the new year definitely has no good intentions. That's for sure.

His brain raced, putting himself in Linghu Liji's shoes. He tried to understand why she would do such a thing

He quickly came up with two answers. The first was to increase the reward in order to inspire others' fighting spirit, ideally bringing Ye Junxie down from his pedestal.

The second possibility is that there's something fishy about these Spirit Fruits. Anyone who gets their hands on such a high-grade Chaotic Spirit Fruit would definitely consume it immediately. But what consequences might arise once they eat it It's impossible to guess.

No matter what, I have to get the Hu Ling Dao Guo. We'll deal with everything else later.

Originally, he just wanted to make it into the top ten, no need to draw too much attention.

But now the situation has changed drastically, and I must change my tactics to seize the leadership position.

"Be quiet!"

Then, a silence fell over the crowd as the sound resonated through everyone's ears.

"The competition continues, now it's time for the draw!"

At the commander's command, the drawing continued.

Ye Bufan reached out and grabbed a small ball. The light dissipated, and a black number one appeared on it.

On the other hand, Bai Li Xuan Yi also caught a number one ball, but his was white.

One white and one black become rivals, and this is their first contest.

Next, Xuanyuan Linglong caught the second ball. Her opponent was Shangguan Du, a seeded player from the eighth arena and a powerhouse of the Fifth Rank of Emperor Yuan, hailing from the Xuanbing Sword Sect.

Yuhua Ling captured the No. 6 seed player, Fatian, a powerhouse of Emperor Seven cultivation from Tianshangmen.

The opponent of the Demon King is Zhong Fan, the former champion of the fifth platform, a core disciple from the Xuanbing Sword Sect, whose strength is at the eighth rank of the Yuan Emperor.

One can't help but say that the Fifth Little Demon had very good luck, as he managed to capture the winner of the ninth stage, Xue Hang, from the Yuanyuan Gate. His strength is only at the level of a Yuan Emperor first rank.

This guy wasn't originally strong enough to beat the champion of the ninth ring, but in a group fight, he ultimately won. He became the lucky one who got the last laugh.

Next, Du Mu Feng began to read the competition rules: "Five ring matches begin simultaneously. The first person knocked off the platform is ranked tenth, the second is ninth."

"...and so on, the final five people will compete in the next round..."

After finishing his speech, he waved his hand, and four more platforms materialized on the ground.

Overall, the rule remains simple and straightforward. However, there isn't much interest in who is ranked tenth or ninth.

In fact, the Wan Beast Evil Lord is there, a rank-three ancestor who has already been locked in as the leader in the eyes of countless people. The others are just going through the motions.

Even though some people questioned the fairness of such a continuous competition, no one voiced their concerns.

"Alright, now the competition begins. Please take your places on stage together."

Dumu Feng gave an order, and Ye Bufan jumped onto the first platform. The others also took their seats according to their numbers, finding their positions.

"Boy, heaven has eyes. You're actually on the same platform as me."

Bai Li Xuan Yi leaped onto the platform, laughing arrogantly.

Although he had already given up on the pursuit of the leadership position, giving this guy in front of him a good thrashing would also be a decent outcome.

As for the outcome, he had no doubt whatsoever. After all, he was a Yuan Sheng-level powerhouse. As long as he kept an eye on the opponent and didn't give them a chance to use the Chaos Spirit Treasure, the victory would be his.

"You got to this position by relying on sneak attacks. It's already your lucky day. If you have the guts, come and try again..."

Many people believe Ye Bufan defeated Chi Ao by sneak attack, including him.

But before he could finish his words, he realized the other person had vanished from where they stood.

"Where is everyone"

Bai Li Xuan Yi's expression changed drastically in that instant, only then realizing the other party was not as simple as she had imagined.

But he wasn't too panicked, after all, he was a Yuan Saint cultivator. His protective zhenqi surged wildly.

According to his thinking, even if the other party's movements were mysterious and even if they launched a surprise attack, they would ultimately be unable to break through his defenses.

A crushing pressure followed immediately behind him, the violent energy ripping apart his protective aura in an instant. Then, a heavy punch landed squarely on his back.

"Pffft!"

Bai Li Xuan Yi felt as if her five internal organs were displaced, blood gushing wildly from her body. She flew off the stage like a kite with its string cut, crashing heavily to the ground below.

The first one was knocked down, according to the rules he was the last ranked among ten people.

In the first two rounds of testing, he was a peerless genius who dominated everyone. But now he is being beaten so miserably.

The most crucial point is that he didn't even have time to perform before being ambushed by the other party, he didn't even understand what happened.

... Overcome with shame and fury, she spat out another mouthful of blood before fainting. ...

The audience was stunned, the outcome exceeding everyone's expectations.

As the core disciple of Taihua Hall and a strong cultivator at the level of Yuan Saint First Rank, Bai Li Xuan Yi was undoubtedly the second most prominent figure in the hearts of countless people.

The result is good, he came up pretending to be cool and got attacked by someone else, and even ended up getting attacked successfully, beaten like this.

The fight here is over, and then another figure falls off the stage, it's Zhong Fan from the fourth platform.

As for strength, this guy is quite accomplished, having reached the eighth rank of Yuan Di. Unfortunately, his opponent is the Demon King of Ten Thousand Beasts.

The Emperor's resistance to the Ancestor was akin to that of a baby versus a strong man, with no chance of even blocking a single attack. He fell to ninth place, far behind Bai Li Xuan Yi.om was dim, Lu Banxia felt a surge of inexplicable panic when their eyes met."Joanna, is everything alright"Romerio's voice was dry and raspy, as if he hadn't spoken to anyone in a long time."Respecte...
