Chapter 513: The Ninth Round Ends, the Tenth Begins

Zang roared, "Is Zhen even capable of defeating you?""Bullshit!"The White Ghost Emperor snorted, "Wait and see.""Watch out! Once Li An starts fighting back, Zhen will be beaten like a pig!"The two argued loudly.The audience around them listened, and Zhen on the stage could certainly hear it too!Under the moonlight, he swung his sword sharply and said calmly, "You're right.""I haven't cultivated the Light of Chaos to the point where it can destroy Martial Will.""But adding the Dao Fruit makes a difference!"The Dao Fruit within Zhen's body flickered faintly.A strange, chilling power emerged.This power was grayish-white and clung to the Light of Chaos.The White Ghost Emperor frowned at this."Dao Fruit of Collapse?"The Collapse and Chaos Light have similar effects of chaos.With these two forces combined, Li An certainly wouldn't be able to withstand it!Across the river, Li An, absorbed in digesting the impurities in his blood and essence, raised his eyebrows slightly.Chaos plus collapse.Maybe!Without changing his expression, he activated a layer of Heavenly Dao Fruit, and a layer of molten armor emerged from his body!Then, Zhen thrust out his sword!"Wow!"This time, the sword's light couldn't penetrate Li An, piercing only a third of his body.Zhen's expression changed slightly.Li An glanced down at his wound, then gave up on using the Dao Fruit's power and said calmly, "Using the Dao Fruit is too much of a burden.""Just chop it down!"Zhen's eyes widened, and he shouted, "You're just trying to impress the crowd!"He swung his sword furiously, hacking the defenseless Li An into pieces.The White Ghost Emperor in the audience sneered. "Too weak.""Even with the Dao Fruit activated, they can't cut through!""Collapse and Chaos Transformation don't work together; the sum of their parts can't be greater than the sum of their parts.""This masked monster needs to rebuild his Dao Fruit.""Still trying to attract attention.""Li An is standing there with dignity.""On the other hand, that masked one, acting mysterious and seemingly powerful, only to have his attacks so weak. That's exactly what attracts attention!"The White Ghost Emperor sneered and stared at Zang.Now.In a sense, he was on Li An's side.Because he was Li An's rival, the two had clashed many times.These masked monsters were the rivals Li An had encountered since entering the Cultivation Temple.Li An had beaten them to a pulp.As his longtime rival, I, Lord White Ghost Emperor, needless to say, am a truly powerful person, right?Zang's rage was uncontrollable.Zhen, on the stage, watched the bloodied Li An with increasing ferocity.But suddenly!A clang!Li An suddenly raised his right palm, the power of the Second Heavenly Dao Fruit imbued upon his arm.The sword light was easily crushed by him, a crisp sound.It was over.The last bit of his blood and essence impurities had been consumed, but he hadn't yet reached the 400 mark.After this fight, I'll ask Yuri to get me a copy. Maybe that will be enough.Then, Li An looked up at Zhen, his face filled with boredom.Offstage, the White Ghost Emperor raised an eyebrow and said, "It seems Li An has completed his training.""It seems his physical strength has increased a bit...""Then, Zhen should step down."Zhen stared up at Li An and said, "Are you finally serious?"Li An shook his head and said, "I crave a sufficiently strong opponent, and you're not one. Listen, don't come to my place again.""It's pointless."With that, Li An's body suddenly vanished! Zhen's eyes darkened, and he transformed into a multicolored chaotic light, also darting away!The flames and the chaotic light raced across the battlefield, one after the other.Something outrageous had happened.The flames were actually closing in on the chaotic light!Speed ​​had always been Li An's weakness!He possessed no means of enhancing his speed, but with his physical strength reaching 399, his speed was anything but slow.Out of the corner of his eye, Zhen caught sight of the flames behind him. Like a predatory ghost, the flames followed him like a shadow, immense and terrifying!"No!"Zhen, unwilling to give in, suddenly turned around, ready to strike back!A sword thrust forth!Li An's fist followed suit!The same old thing.Li An possessed the skill rune of unconscious charging, and he had always made a habit of charging his energy at the outset of battle!This punch, too, had been building up for quite some time!The cannon shot skyward, illuminating the night!Zhen flew backward like a kite with its string cut, finally collapsing to the ground like a defeated dog.He was the biological son of the current Shura Lord.Ren was his adopted son.Bearing the Shura Lord's bloodline, he shouldn't be so weak.At least, at this point in time, Zhen wasn't evenly matched with Li An, but more like a 46:50 chance.But as the Sky Thief said,The path of cultivation is like sailing against the current.The so-called Dao Heart is nothing more than a few choices.Forward or retreat?In the Xiu Sheng Temple Stage Competition.In his duel with Zhao Shaolong, Zhen chose to retreat.From that moment on, Li An despised this guy.Zhen retreated after just three moves.One move was a test of speed, one of strength, and one of martial intent.After all three moves, he was completely overpowered by Zhao Shaolong, so he retreated. This retreat made it difficult for him to achieve Dao Fruit, and a crack appeared on his path.For two years, the blond boy had haunted him like a demon.But he had the chance to mend this rift.But he did nothing, not even the courage to ask Zhao Shaolong for his sword.Such a fellow shouldn't have achieved Dao Fruit. Unfortunately, the Shura Lord's family was wealthy and powerful, and like Lin Ruyu, they had special means to help them condense Dao Fruit.But those were special means.So the Dao Fruit he finally condensed was strange, a devastating Dao Fruit that had nothing to do with his state of mind or even his talent.Strange and tricky techniques are ultimately not the Great Dao.A gifted individual had fallen from grace.The ninth round was over.Li An stretched leisurely.Tong Zheng ascended the stairs, his face sullen."Wait."Li An raised his hand to decline, saying, "Give me a few minutes, I need to eat.""What?" Tong Zheng frowned. Li An retrieved his storage ring from Yuri, then pulled out his exclusive communication tool for the Cultivation Temple and immediately went shopping.Source Energy Pills, and Divine Realm Essence Blood.He was running low on cash, luckily Qing'er had transferred the funds in time.One Divine Realm Essence Blood, two Super Source Energy Pills, and his account was back to zero.Then, Li An pocketed the Divine Realm Essence Blood.He didn't know how to fuse bloodlines; that required specialized equipment and expertise.But he could absorb the Source Energy Pills directly.This puzzled Tong Zheng, who asked, "You absorbed the Source Energy Pills?""Yes, don't you know I'm a fellow cultivator of the Third Realm?" Li An said, chewing the Source Energy Pill and swallowing it."Okay." Tong Zheng raised an eyebrow."Can we begin then?""Almost done, finish this one too." Li An opened the package of another pill and swallowed it in one gulp. Finally, he dusted his hands, strained his neck, and prepared for the tenth round.In fact, he had a persistent worry. My third talent had almost condensed, thanks to Emperor Yu Tian's enlightenment.I'd consumed quite a few Source Energy Pills recently, all of which had been absorbed by the talent rune, but the rune hadn't become clearer, nor had its power been fully revealed.I always felt like something was missing.Finally, Li An burped and patted his belly.It felt a little hot and itchy, as if something was about to sprout.
