Donghuang Xiaotian shouted.
After speaking, he sat back on his seat. At the same time, Donghuang Hong, who was standing behind him, also went forward and looked at the 40 disciples on the stage.
Then he spoke out: "This round's competition is the same as before, we will continue with the drawing of lots, this old man will choose two names immediately, whoever gets selected will compete on the stage, the victor will advance, the loser will be eliminated, and the person who advanced will get a placing in the Five Domains Alliance Assembly!"
"The first round!" Donghuang Sect, Donghuang Sword, against Blood Demon Sect, Wu Jiang, and the rest, leave the stage! "
Donghuang Hong shouted.
"Wu Jiang's opponent is actually a Donghuang Sword. This is bad luck!"
"That's right!"
"This Donghuang Sword is a seventh level Honored Martial Stage expert, the number one expert. Although this Wu Jiang's strength is not bad, he's only at the third level of Honored Martial Stage, which is far from being comparable to the Donghuang Sword!"
"However, the cultivation method of Blood Demon Sect is quite strange. I heard that there is a secret technique that can forcefully increase one's cultivation level. It might be possible for them to defeat this Donghuang Sword!"
"…"
When they heard Donghuang Hong pronounce the names of the two, countless people around the stage could not help but become excited. No matter what, these two people were Honored Martial Stage experts.
Although Wu Jiang's strength was slightly weaker, he still possessed the strength of the third sky of Honored Martial Stage, so it would definitely not be easy for the Donghuang Sword to win against him.
"Donghuang Sword, let me try. The strength of the number one Eastern Heavenly Domain cultivator, exactly how strong is he?! With Blood Demon's buff, show him!" Wu Jiang stared at the Donghuang Sword in front of him with a cold gaze.
He then let out a cold growl, and a huge bloody mist immediately appeared on his body, enveloping him in this layer of blood mist.
"Roar!"
After that, under the gazes of the crowd, Wu Jiang's body actually transformed into a blood-colored Giant Demon that was around ten meters tall. Even his aura kept on increasing, and forcibly rose to the fifth level of the Honored Martial Stage.
Compared to the Donghuang Sword, they were only two realms away.
"Blood Demon Sect's secret technique, Blood Demon Strengthening!"
"The Blood Demon Sect was able to become one of the top ten sects because of this Blood Demon's support. I never thought that Wu Jiang would use a Blood Demon to support them from the start. It seems like he also understands that it is impossible to deal with a Donghuang Sword with just his own strength!"
"Rumor has it that when one reaches the large success stage of Blood Demon, it can directly increase their cultivation by three small realms in a short amount of time. This Wu Jiang can directly increase his cultivation by two realms. It seems that he has already enhanced his Blood Demon to the middle stage!"
"Although the strengthening of the Blood Demon is indeed domineering, the side effects are also not small. Once unleashed, the strength will plummet by three realms within seven days, and can only be recovered after seven days. And at the cost of the Vital Blood Essence at that, the price is not small!"
"…"
Seeing Wu Jiang turn into a ten-meter-tall Giant Demon, many people immediately started discussing. Some people even looked at him with disdain, but they could not help but reveal envious expressions.
For countless people, even if they could raise their cultivation by a small realm, it would still be enough to change a person's strength earth-shattering, let alone directly increase it by three small realms.
The higher the realm a person had, the more meaningful these three realms would be.
In other words, even if it was a person with a Honored Martial Stage of the sixth heaven, once they reached large success in their cultivation of this Blood Demon, they would still have the power to fight even if they were up against experts with a Honored Martial Stage of the ninth heaven.
This was already a heaven-defying cultivation technique!
"The power of Blood Demons?"
Even Loong Hao was slightly surprised when he saw Wu Jiang's change. If it wasn't for his eyesight, he would have been able to see that the realm of Blood Demon was limited. Otherwise, he would have gone to Blood Demon Sect.
The power of the Blood Demon could only exert a strong effect on Honored Martial Stage experts, but it was already very limited for Sacred Martial Stage experts. Even if they cultivated it to the Large Success Stage, they could only increase it by one realm.
As for expert at the Divine Martial Stage, the boost from the Blood Demon was almost gone. He was unable to increase his cultivation level. He could only turn himself into a Blood Demon and increase his strength drastically.
But even so, it was still very extraordinary.
"Die!"
Boom!
On the stage, Wu Jiang, who had already turned into a Blood Demon Giant, roared out. A huge fist, with a terrifying amount of spirit energy, was thrown straight at the Donghuang Sword.
"Bam!"
The Donghuang Sword took a light step back, causing Wu Jiang's punch to hit nothing but air. The impact of the punch caused the entire stage to shake.
An enormous surge of power directly shook the defensive formations around the arena, causing them to emit a series of buzzing sounds as they cancelled out this incomparably domineering force.
"With the Blood Demon's support, although Wu Jiang is unable to use martial skills, his strength has increased explosively. Simply speaking, in terms of strength, Wu Jiang's current strength is not any weaker than an ordinary powerhouse of the seventh stage of the Honored Martial Stage!"
Wei Xueshuang looked at everything seriously as she slowly spoke.
"That's right."
Ye Jiannan, who was standing in front of him, also nodded and said, "For the Blood Demon Sect to be able to make it into the top ten of the top ten, they must be extraordinary. It's said that the ancestor of the Blood Demon Sect is a peerless Blood Demon, an existence that surpasses Divine Martial Stage. After his fall, he left behind the secret technique of the Blood Demon Sect.
"However, strength is still strength. Although in front of absolute strength, any martial skill is useless, but in front of a powerhouse who has the same cultivation as you, who's also at the seventh stage of the Honored Martial Stage, the power of the Blood Demon is not even worth mentioning."
Ye Jiannan shook his head and said.
"Sect Master thinks that this Wu Jiang cannot be a match for the Donghuang Sword?"
His realm was only at the fifth stage of the Honored Martial Stage. Facing Wu Jiang who had already turned into a blood demon, even he felt a lingering fear in his heart.
"If the number one genius of the Eastern Heavenly Domain can't even handle a third heaven of the Honored Martial Stage of the Blood Demon Sect, and is even the number one genius of the Eastern Heavenly Domain, do you really think that this Donghuang Sword became the number one genius of the Eastern Heavenly Domain because of the fame of the Donghuang Sect?"
Ye Jiannan snorted.
"Defeating you only requires a single sword strike."
Sure enough, after the Donghuang Sword on the stage avoided Wu Jiang's attack, its eyes revealed a hint of disdain, and said with an ice-cold voice. At the same time, a sword light directly bloomed in front of it.
