Talisman Emperor

Hmm? Chen Baling’s pupils suddenly constricted. He was actually unable to lock onto Chen Xi’s figure, and it was like Chen Xi had evaporated into thin air.

This sudden scene caused his heart to tremble.

Shit! As a Sixth Star Region Lord, Chen Baling’s will was extraordinarily enormous, yet he wasn’t even able to lock onto his opponent right now. So how could he not become vigilant because of this?

He didn’t have the time to think, and he practically instinctively broke down the enormous green sword in his palm, and it transformed into a myriad of specks that were fine like the hairs on an ox. They swept towards the surroundings and enveloped the entire combat arena.

When looked at from afar, an illusory and dream-like green storm had suddenly poured down, and every single droplet of rain was formed from terrifying Sword Intent.

Such an attack that covered the entire area was sufficient to force Chen Xi’s figure out!

That was what Chen Baling thought.

However, to his surprise, it was at this instant that a wisp of ethereal and ordinary sword qi that was faint like mist had suddenly appeared.

It was so inconspicuous, yet it was like the sign of a calamity. As soon as it appeared here, it was like everything on the combat arena had suffered a form of absolute suppression. Space, airflow, light, sound.... Everything was subdued by it, and the surroundings fell into a seemingly frozen state.

Even the myriad of droplets of green Sword Intent didn’t even have the time to release their might before they suddenly froze and became motionless.

This scene occurred so quickly, and it was extremely odd and shocking!

Chen Baling felt indescribable coldness surge into his heart. It made every single inch of his skin shudder, and it was like he’d fallen into an icy pit. He’d even sensed an extremely strong feeling of lethal danger.

How terrifying! The arrogance he revealed had vanished. The haughty and oppressive edge he displayed was gone. He felt a form of unprecedented suffocation.

No!How could this have happened? He’s clearly just a little bastard from the Ancient God Domain, and he’s merely at Fourth Star Region Lord! How could he execute such a terrifying attack?

This is definitely an illusion!

Chen Baling howled in his heart while he felt both shocked and furious. He originally hoped to crush Chen Xi in one go and trample on Chen Xi before the eyes of everyone, and he intended to torture Chen Xi with all his ability before crippling Chen Xi’s cultivation.

Never had he imagined that such a shocking change in the situation would actually occur as soon as the battle began!

Chen Baling was unable to accept this. His pride, the bloodline that flowed within him, and his dignity as an innate god was unable to accept all of this.

Bang!

The thoughts in his mind were chaotic. However, all of this occurred in a very short instant. At this moment, he faced such lethal danger, so Chen Baling had fully released his complete might.

His entire body seemed as if it was burning, and he seemed like an infuriated ferocious beast from the primeval times. The Innate Energy within his bloodline transformed into blazing green radiance that swept out from within him and shot into the sky.

In an instant, Chen Baling’s might had actually increased by more than two times!

Needless to say, as one of the most outstanding experts in the Region Lord Realm within the Chen Clan, Chen Baling who was a Sixth Star Region Lord was extraordinary indeed. He didn’t just possess deep reserves, his combat experienced far exceeded his peers as well.

In this short instant, he’d already made the most direct and correct form of retaliation.

A mysterious green totem appeared, and it stood in front of him.

The mysterious totem seemed like a bird yet wasn’t one, seemed like a fish yet wasn’t one as well. Strange and twisted markings of the Dao crisscrossed through it in a complicated manner, and it emanated a grand and dazzling glow.

Obviously, this was definitely a trump card of Chen Baling’s. If he wasn’t facing extreme danger right now, then he would probably not utilize it rashly.

Om!

The totem glowed and was enshrouded by light that carried a horrifying aura.

This allowed Chen Baling to finally feel slightly at ease.

Swoosh!

Right at this moment, that wisp of sword qi that was faint like mist had arrived soundlessly.

Pu!

The green mysterious totem was swiftly slashed apart like it was a weak piece of paper.

At this instant, Chen Baling’s heart shook violently, and he lost his composure, causing his face to be drowned in boundless shock....

Never had he imagined that his trump card would actually still be incapable of blocking a single attack from Chen Xi! How could this be possible?Why is this happening?

Why....

Extreme terror and unwillingness surged and drowned Chen Baling’s mind, and then a strand of extremely intense pain came from the center of his forehead.

Crack!

It was the sound of his skull cracking.

Bang!

After that, it was like Chen Baling’s consciousness was struck by lightning and forcefully blasted apart. It was shattered into pieces, and he completely lost consciousness.

...

All of this took a long time to describe yet actually occurred in an instant. Since the moment that the battle had begun until Chen Xi vanished on the spot while executing that extremely casual attack, and then Chen Baling counterattacked and formed that mysterious green totem.... This string of actions had been completed at an inconceivably swift pace.

Those in the surroundings who were below the Region Lord Realm didn’t even have the chance to see anything clearly, and it was even to the extent that they hadn’t even reacted to what had happened.

However, to the experts who were at the Region Lord Realm or above, those scenes from before could simply be described as horrifying and extremely dangerous.

No one had expected that Chen Baling whom they’d entrusted great hopes to would have actually suffered absolute suppression from a single strand of sword qi right after the battle began.

Moreover, no one had imagined that the wisp of sword qi Chen Xi executed would actually contain such terrifying might.

It was even to the extent that they didn’t even have the time to think before they saw the battle come to an end.

On the combat arena, Chen Baling stood on the spot by himself, and his enormous figure casted a huge shadow on the ground yet he remained motionless like a status.

Besides that, a strand of scarlet red blood was gurgling out from the center of his forehead, and it seemed extremely horrifying when his fresh blood flowed past his face that had turned ghastly pale from terror.

Clang!

A sword howl resounded. Chen Xi’s figure appeared in front of Chen Baling, and his dense jet black hair fluttered along his clothes. His expression was calm and indifferent just as it was before the battle had begun, and it hadn’t changed at all.

The Talisman Armament in his hand had already been put away, and only that sword howl was drifting through the deathly silent combat arena.

The spectators in the surroundings were deathly silent when they witnessed this scene. All of their faces were covered in shock, wonder, horror, disbelief....

At this moment, the world was actually strangely silent. Everything that occurred earlier had been too quick, so many hadn’t been able to recover from their shock.

Bang!

After a short while, Chen Baling’s robust figure crashed to the ground, and he laid motionlessly on the ground like a corpse.

This sudden event was like a signal that caused the deathly silent atmosphere to be destroyed, and a mighty uproar erupted.

“He lost? Chen Baling actually lost? Impossible! That’s absolutely impossible!”

“What a terrifying attack. The battle had just begun, yet it has already ended. How could this possibly be something that a Fourth Star Region Lord could accomplish?”

“Could Chen Ziyu have been defeated in the same way a few days ago?”

“What exactly occurred just now? Why has Chen Baling, a Sixth Star Region Lord, lost to an outsider?”

“This isn’t real! It’s definitely not real....”

All sorts of shocked exclaims resounded, and it was like a clamorous scene swept through every single inch of space. Those clansmen of the Chen Clan felt disbelief, and they were unable to accept such a scene.

In their expectations, Chen Baling should have made a display of his invincible might and trampled upon Chen Xi. Never had they imagined that the battle would come to an end in an unexpected manner as soon as it had just started!

This was too shocking. Even a Daolord like Chen Lingkong had been stunned for a moment before he returned to his senses, and his expression instantly became gloomy.

Yes, even he hadn’t imagined that such an unexpected event would actually occur during the first battle.

Since it was like that for even Chen Lingkong, it was obvious how complicated the feelings of those clansmen of the Chen Clan was right now.

“Instant defeat!”

“Beautiful!”

Wu Xuechan and Tang Xian exchanged glances and smiled at each other. Both of them exclaimed endlessly with praise in their hearts. Perhaps, even they hadn’t imagined that their Little Junior Brother would actually be so formidable?

“What a ruthless little bastard! He actually crippled Baling’s sea of consciousness!” An elder of the Chen Clan had entered the combat arena to check on Chen Baling’s injuries, and his face instantly turned gloomy as he gritted his teeth and shouted.

His sea of consciousness was crippled!In an instant, clamorous noise arose in the surroundings. Because the sea of consciousness was where the soul resided, and once it was crippled, it was equivalent to transforming its owner into a cripple as well!

Even if it could be repaired in the future, it would greatly affect Chen Baling’s cultivation. Not to mention that techniques capable of repairing the sea of consciousness were unprecedentedly rare!

“Dammit!”

“This is simply more ruthless than killing Chen Baling! This is simply unforgiveable!”

Some clansmen of the Chen Clan were filled with righteous indignation, and they howled in succession and cursed Chen Xi. Moreover, their words were extremely unpleasant.

“Fellow Daoist Lingkong, it was you who set the rules, and you even said yourself that they can’t do anything so long as they didn’t kill their opponent. Now that my Little Junior Brother has attained victory, he actually has to suffer such insult and blame. Could it be that you really think there’s no one capable in my Oracle Mountain?” Suddenly, WU Xuechan stood up with an indifferent expression on his face, and he spoke coldly. His voice wasn’t loud, yet it was like a thunderclap that rumbled and surged through the hearts of everyone, and it caused the clamorous noise in the surroundings to instantly vanish.

Chen Lingkong’s expression changed slightly, and then he took a deep breath and said, “Grand Lord, please calm your rage. It’s just some clamorous noise, and it’s unavoidable. I will naturally not allow all of this to delay the battles of the competition.”

As he spoke, his expression became cold as he instructed that elder from the Chen Clan, “Take him off the arena. Don’t delay the competition!”

That elder’s expression changed indeterminately. In the end, he held Chen Baling’s figure in anger and left the combat arena.

From the beginning until the end, Chen Xi’s expression hadn’t changed at all. Since Chen Baling had threatened to cripple him, then he would naturally not wait helplessly for Chen Baling to cripple him.

This was the punishment that he gave Chen Baling!

“Now, who else wants to come and challenge me. Feel free to ascend the arena and fight me!” Chen Xi turned around, and his gaze swiftly swept towards the other two clansmen of the Chen Clan in the 4th group. His voice was calm and flat, yet it carried an invisible oppressive force.

This fellow is simply too arrogant!

This scene caused many clansmen of the Chen Clan to feel furious, and they gnashed their teeth with hatred.

However, the guests who were observing the competition couldn’t help but exclaim with admiration. This disciple of Oracle Mountain is truly courageous and extremely arrogant.

Chen Xi’s voice was still reverberating through the air, yet there was actually no one who answered him. This caused the atmosphere here to become deathly silent and slightly oppressive.

So, everyone couldn’t help but move their gazes towards the other two members of the Chen Clan who were in the 4th group like Chen Xi.
