Chapter 169 Competition

Above the Sword Sect, Lin Yuan was floating there with an excited smile on his face.

Once upon a time, he thought he would be stuck in the Nirvana Realm for the rest of his life, but now, in just two years, he has reached the early stage of the Shengxuan Realm.

"It seems that God has been kind to me."

Lin Yuan laughed at himself, and a figure appeared in front of him.

"Loki, our next meeting is not far away!"

Thinking of this guy, Lin Yuan couldn't help but clench his hands, and a piercing cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Lin Yuan, the results of a year's practice depend on today, go ahead."

A light voice came into Lin Yuan's ears. It was Li Xiaoyao.

Hearing Li Xiaoyao's voice, Lin Yuan was stunned, and then he saw several figures not far away looking at him silently.

"Uh…" Lin Yuan smiled unnaturally, then quickly flew towards the crowd.

"Disciple greets the elders."

Yu Kongzi nodded and said, "It's just right. Today's selection will start soon. Whether you can enter the ancient tomb depends on your own strength."

After saying that, he took a step ahead and arrived at the Sword Sect Square with a solemn expression.

"What's your name, kid?"

Hong Tao looked at Lin Yuan intently and asked curiously.

Lin Yuan didn't know who the old man in front of him was, but he felt very dangerous, so he couldn't help but said respectfully: "Young Lin Yuan, I'm here to meet you, senior."

"Lin Yuan..., judging from your appearance, you are not from the Southern Region, right?"

Hong Tao curiously walked around Lin Yuan, and frowned as he sensed an aura from him that was not from the Southern Region.

"The boy is indeed not from the Southern Region."

In response, Lin Yuan did not hide anything and nodded frankly.

"The Southern Territory has been sealed off for ten thousand years, how did you get in?

How did you enter the Sword Sect and become its direct disciple?"

"This..." Lin Yuan felt a little embarrassed when he heard this. He didn't know how to respond to this matter, so he could only remain silent.

Seeing this, Hong Tao wanted to ask more questions, but was stopped.

"Okay, don't you see that I don't want to answer?

Why force people to answer? "

Li Yang glanced at Lin Yuan, then led his disciples towards the square.

"Tsk, you're such a pretentious fellow."

Hong Tao curled his lips and did not continue asking questions, but walked towards the square.

Soon, the five major sects gathered in the square, and a tense atmosphere spread.

"I will not say more about the rules. The top three in this competition will enter the ancient tomb."

Yu Kongzi glanced at the whole audience, then threw out several jade cards from his sleeves and said, "Each of you choose a jade card, the same number will form a group, and the winner will enter the next group."

Hearing this, the disciples from the five major sects attacked at the same time and snatched a jade token in a lightning speed.

Lin Yuan glanced at the number on the jade token with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"Number one?

So unlucky?"

He originally wanted to observe the strength of others more and then make plans, but he didn't expect that man proposes, God disposes, and he would be the first to go on the field.

"Alright, those holding the number one jade token, please come up to the stage."

When Yu Kongzi saw that everyone had received the jade token, he waved his sleeves, the void trembled, and a thousand-foot-wide arena appeared out of thin air in the square!

Lin Yuan took a deep breath and jumped onto the ring with a solemn expression.

The next moment, a burly man also came to the ring, emitting an extremely terrifying evil aura.

"The middle stage of Shengxuan realm?"

Lin Yuan narrowed his eyes, a strong desire to fight surged in his heart.

"Sword Sect Lin Yuan, please give me some advice."

"Lu Rujie from the Fiery Sect, please give me some advice."

Lu Rujie grinned, a red glow suddenly appeared on his body, and a hot aura gradually spread.

"Come on, let me see how capable the Sword Sect's Sect Master's direct disciple is!"

Facing the imposing Lu Rujie, Lin Yuan remained calm, and green sword intent gushed out from his body.

"bring it on."

"good."

Lu Rujie was not polite either. He jumped up, his right arm glowed red, and then he punched out in the air.

In an instant, a wave of fire burst out and rushed towards Lin Yuan.

"break!"

Lin Yuan used his hand as a sword and slashed out with the sword. The brilliant sword light directly broke through the fire wave and flew towards Lu Rujie.

Lu Rujie raised his left hand, and a wisp of energy from his sleeves dispersed the sword light.

"Ten thousand swords fired at once!"

With a low hum, the green sword intent that filled the air instantly turned into countless swords and shot towards Lu Rujie in mid-air.

"It's a bit interesting."

Lu Rujie was not afraid at all. A dazzling red light burst out from his whole body, forming a protective shield around him.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

The densely packed sword blades hit the protective shield like a rainstorm, making a harsh collision sound.

"What a powerful sword intent."

In just a few breaths, Lu Rujie's face darkened slightly. He had already felt that the power of these swords was somewhat beyond his expectations.

"Red Lotus Blooms!"

The torrential attack continued, and Lu Rujie's hands could not help but tremble slightly. He roared, and the blazing flames gushed out again.

"Disperse!"

The next moment, the raging flames spread rapidly and directly engulfed all the sword blades!

The next moment, the flame began to condense and turned into a red lotus flower, floating in the air, exuding a strange charm.

Inside the red lotus, Lu Rujie clasped his hands together, and then changed rapidly.

"Wrath of the Red Lotus" After a few seconds, the red lotus slowly bloomed, and terrifying energy gathered at the center. The space around it continued to vibrate with its appearance.

Lin Yuan felt the destructive energy and his expression became slightly solemn.

On the stands, Yu Kongzi tapped his fingertips lightly, a faint light flickered, and an invisible light curtain instantly covered the arena.

"Lin Yuan, it's not too late to admit defeat now, otherwise don't blame me if you die later."

Hearing Lu Rujie's words, Lin Yuan chuckled and did not reply. He clasped his hands together and gathered his sword intent madly.

In an instant, a green long sword condensed, and the sword energy on the blade surged like river water.

Lu Rujie looked at Lin Yuan quietly. Although he did not get a response, the latter's actions had already given the answer.

He will continue to fight!

"Since you insist on fighting, don't blame me."

After saying that, Lu Rujie said no more and waved his hands.

The next second, the terrifying flame at the center of the red lotus shot out with a devastating pressure, and hit Lin Yuan like a pillar of light.

"The true meaning of water, huge waves!"

A terrifying force was approaching, but there was no fear in Lin Yuan's eyes. He shouted loudly, and the sword energy in the green sword exploded with a bang.

The endless sword energy turned into huge waves, one after another, rushing towards him.

"Boom!"

There was only a loud bang, and two destructive energies collided with each other, and the entire space began to shake violently.

Powerful force surged in all directions, and after hitting the light curtain, it miraculously dissipated!

After a moment, the energy dissipated and the entire arena collapsed. Lin Yuan was suspended three feet above the ground with a calm face, seemingly unharmed.
