Eternal Sovereign

Chen Yi thought for a moment, then immediately put on the Earth lower tier Godly Armor defense that he got from the duke.    

Both of them were top-notch Earth lower tier Godly Armor s, but Chen Yi's defensive power was above Qi Taotao's. Qi Taotao had used all these years to complete missions and exchanged for Earth lower tier Godly Armor s from the Red Dragon Palace. What Chen Yi was wearing was actually what the duke had taken out of his treasury.    

The treasures in the treasury are even more precious than those in the Red Dragon Palace.    

If there was a difference in strength, then the defensive power of the Godly Armor Qi Taotao was probably only equivalent to that of ordinary Fourth Rank Innate Body. The Godly Armor that Chen Yi was wearing, was enough to be on par with that of the top Fourth Rank Innate Body.    

Even if Chen Yi hadn't entered the Innate Realm yet, the Genuine Qi's power was still comparable to a normal mid-stage Genuine Returning Stage, causing him to be unable to fully display the strength of the Godly Armor on his body. However, superimposing it onto the [Burning Devils Body], it also allowed Chen Yi's current defensive power to take another step towards the fifth stage of the Innate Body.    

With the defense, Chen Yi's concerns were greatly reduced and he was a bit bolder in attacking.    

The sound of a sword's hum resounded through the surrounding area, and the divine swords on the bodies of many Red Dragon Guard began to tremble, as if they were about to leave their sheaths and fly to Chen Yi's side.    

"One With the Sword!" Many Red Dragon Guard were already numb, no wonder Chen Yi had the title of the number one person in the younger generation, this guy had too many cards in his hand.    

Don't look at how many people present had strong Red Dragon Guard and were all outstanding people within the same realm. They were basically all able to sweep away the scattered cultivators of the same realm, but when they were young, they had never taken down the name of number one in the Yunlan County's young generation.    

There was even a huge gap between them and the strongest of the young generation. If they were to meet the Cyan Spirit Fruit, they might not even be able to make it into the second round.    

Why did some Red Dragon Guard people sneer at Chen Yi when they heard that he was going to participate in the internal selection? They felt that Chen Yi was arrogant and complacent, or was they jealous?    

A mere junior that had obtained the title that they hadn't been able to obtain back then felt uncomfortable in their hearts.    

As Red Dragon Guard, they all had their own pride. This pride made them not too convinced of Chen Yi, but now that Chen Yi had displayed his strength, they had no choice but to accept Chen Yi.    

Chaoling Continent, strength was the foundation. The strength Chen Yi displayed was something that many Red Dragon Guard s present could not compare to, so it was hard for these Red Dragon Guard s not to be convinced.    

Boom!    

Fortunately, none of the people present were weak. Even if some of their Red Dragon Guard weren't as strong as Chen Yi's and Qi Taotao's, they were only able to deal with the aftermath of their clash.    

In the One With the Sword state, Chen Yi's strength increased once again. His right arm was like a godly weapon, it was even sharper, and the power of his sword was even more terrifying.    

Chen Yi's sword force was also at the middle stage of the large success stage, but there was still a big gap between it and Qi Taotao. However, with the support of the One With the Sword, his sword force was actually able to catch up to Qi Taotao's level.    

With just the power of the sword, Chen Yi was only able to fight with an ordinary mid stage Genuine Returning Stage before, but the power of the sword beneath the One With the Sword was enough to contend with an ordinary perfect Genuine Returning Stage.    

The extent of this increase was truly terrifying.    

This was also one of the reasons why the One With the Sword was so difficult to comprehend, as the growth of an expert in the Sword Tao was simply too terrifying.    

The One With the Sword was also divided into different grades. The deeper he comprehended, the higher his levelled up. Chen Yi had already comprehended the One With the Sword quite a while ago, and with the help of the Tao Comprehension Stone, Chen Yi had walked almost half of the path of the One With the Sword.    

If it was only the initial comprehension of One With the Sword, Chen Yi would at most raise the power of his sword force to the extent of fighting with ordinary late stage Genuine Returning Stage.    

It may even be a little inadequate.    

The two's figures continued to cross each other, sword Qi rushed through the night, and sword light flashed. Not long later, the defense Godly Armor on the two of their bodies, both of them had sword marks of different sizes and depths.    

The two of them were actually evenly matched.    

Qi Taotao had a high realm, strong sword aura, better equipment for Wu Tie, stronger overall physique and strength, and the One With the Sword state.    

These Red Dragon Guard were basically the Red Dragon Guard used to register to participate in the internal selection. None of them expected that the weakest soft persimmon they had ever thought of was actually a tough nut to crack.    

Red Dragon Guard s who had originally planned to choose Chen Yi as their opponent wiped the cold sweat off their forehead.    

At that moment, they had to be thankful to Qi Taotao, or else the ones who got kicked by him could very likely be them. Their strengths were not as good as Qi Taotao's, and facing the strength that Chen Yi displayed right now, they could very possibly get on their knees.    

Roar!    

Suddenly, Qi Taotao let out a beast roar, complicated patterns appeared on Qi Taotao's face, a cat-like beard appeared on his mouth, and the aura on his body also changed slightly.    

In the next instant, Qi Taotao's attack on Chen Yi suddenly increased in speed.    

Obviously, Qi Taotao had also displayed the power of his bloodline.    

What the Bloodline increased was speed and power. Furthermore, the speed of the amplification was faster than the increase in strength. Thus, in Chen Yi's eyes, Qi Taotao became faster and more agile, gradually making Chen Yi unable to resist.    

Fortunately, the Bloodline was only quasi-Earth Level. For masters like Qi Taotao, the amplification was limited, not to mention that the speed of amplification was faster than the power. Therefore, Qi Taotao's overall strength did not increase much, and the damage it did to Wu Tie was limited.    

But even so, Chen Yi still fell into a predicament. He was continuously being suppressed, and the number of sword marks on the Godly Armor also continued to increase.    

Chen Yi opened his mouth and spat out the [Burning Fire]. The flames were overwhelming, but they were unable to threaten Qi Taotao.    

After all, the [Burning Fire] was only a quasi-Earth grade skill.    

Qi Taotao slashed apart the sky-covering flame with his sword and attacked Chen Yi once again. However, Chen Yi quickly retreated and an even more violent flame swept out.    

Although the [Burning Fire] did not cause Qi Taotao any trouble, it stopped Qi Taotao for a moment. In this short period of time, it was enough for Wu Tie to retreat quickly and use the second Earth-rank ability — Nine Python Incinerator Shield Heaven and Earth!    

Flames covered the ground as the nine Flaming Giant Python soared into the sky. Qi Taotao was shocked.    

This brat had actually awakened two Earth-ranked abilities?    

Qi Taotao looked at the Nine-headed Flaming Giant Python vigilantly, and was even prepared to attack him. However, he did not expect that the Flaming Giant Python would not immediately attack him, but instead quickly appear in the sky, knocking the nine heads together from nine corners.    

In the next moment, a huge Incinerator formed and trapped Qi Taotao.    

"This isn't an attack type ability, it's a sealing barrier type ability!" Qi Taotao's expression changed. Normally, this kind of enchantment would have the effect of suppressing one's strength.    

Sure enough, when Qi Taotao channeled the Genuine Qi in his body, he immediately realized that the Genuine Qi's circulation was a lot more rough, so it wasn't easy to use.    

At the same time, a gravitational force descended upon him, preventing him from unleashing his full speed and strength perfectly.    

Moreover, inside the Incinerator, the flames had already turned into a sea of fire, sweeping towards Qi Taotao. The fire's power was average, but it couldn't compare to the Burning Fire, but the fire and the Incinerator were one. Unless Qi Taotao could break through the Incinerator and Chen Yi's sacred art, the fire would never extinguish.    

In other words, this flame would cause lasting damage to Qi Taotao.    

Hiss …    

Inside the Incinerator, nine Flaming Giant Python were reborn in the flames, surrounding Qi Taotao.    

Chen Yi was also inside the Incinerator, but his face was pale. With Chen Yi's current Pure Yang Genuine Qi, he would not be exhausted even after seven or eight continuous usage of the quasi-Earth class sacred art.    

But an Earth-ranked divine ability was far more powerful than a quasi-earth-ranked divine ability, and its consumption was the same.    

Two Earth Rank supernatural powers, even though Chen Yi's Genuine Qi was pure Yang and cultivated to All-powerful Body, he had also stepped into the Quasi-innate himself, and was almost exhausted.    

As a result, Chen Yi spat out another [Burning Fire]. The flames inside the Incinerator were instantly dyed black, and following that, the strength of the nine Flaming Giant Python also increased greatly.    

Chen Yi himself controlled the Incinerator and sent himself outside.    

Chen Yi sat cross-legged and recuperated his Genuine Qi and stamina.    

"This divine ability is quite interesting." Eldest Prince revealed a smile as he realized the power of this sacred art.    

The main function of the [Nine Python Incinerator Concealment] was to seal the enemy, forming a barrier to trap them. However, he also had the ability to weaken the enemy in various aspects, suppress them, and attack them.    

Generally speaking, this kind of sacred art with a bit of proficiency in various aspects may seem powerful, but it was actually not. It could not be compared to a pure sealing type sacred art, nor to a pure killing type sacred art.    

But Chen Yi's sacred art's attack was not weaker than a top low-rank Earth rank divine art. The defensive power of the enchantment was not weaker than a top low-rank divine art. Just the suppression from the two of them was not weaker than a top low-rank divine ability.    

Many Red Dragon Guard s also saw this and exclaimed in shock.    

What Chen Yi had displayed today had really broadened their horizons.    

At the beginning, they thought that Qi Taotao would win for sure, but now, they felt that Chen Yi's win was rather big.    

They could tell that Chen Yi had exhausted a lot of his energy, otherwise, he would not sit down and recover directly. Now, they just needed to see how long the ability, Incinerator, could last.    

However, if Qi Taotao were to break through the Incinerator's barrier and come out in a short period of time, Chen Yi would definitely lose.    

Inside the Incinerator, the nine Flaming Giant Python s were originally just about the same as an ordinary peak of the Genuine Returning Stage, but after fusing with the [Burning Fire], each and every one of them rose to the peak of the ordinary peak of the Genuine Returning Stage.    

Qi Taotao had a strong sword force and terrifying sword technique. His attack power could even avoid normal Half-step Yuan Combination Stage, but after being suppressed, he only had the slight advantage when facing the nine-headed Flaming Giant Python.    

"Damn it!" Qi Taotao panicked.    

This Incinerator's defensive power was strong, but as long as he used his full strength, he would definitely be able to break through it with just a few strikes.    

However, he was unable to unleash his full power while being entangled by the Nine-headed Flaming Giant Python, and it just happened that he was not able to suppress the Nine-headed Flaming Giant Python for a short period of time.    

He couldn't be about to lose, right?    

He wanted to lose to a new Red Dragon Guard? A young man?    

Thinking of this, Qi Taotao's heart was filled with unwillingness. After working hard at cultivating for so many years, he was actually defeated by a junior. How could he tolerate that?    

Qi Taotao roared as he swung his sword. Surprisingly, it burst with power that even Qi Taotao himself did not expect.    

One end... Both... Three heads...    

When the three Flaming Giant Python were killed, the pressure on Qi Taotao suddenly lessened. The pressure brought by the six Flaming Giant Python was not even as big as the nine headed Flaming Giant Python.    

Qi Taotao's response became more relaxed. When there were only three Flaming Giant Python left, Qi Taotao let out a carefree laugh, as if victory was in his grasp.    

It just so happened that right at this moment, the aura of the three Flaming Giant Python rose greatly, and they had six more … Reborn from the flames!    

Qi Taotao's smile suddenly stopped, he did not know when, but Chen Yi had already appeared inside the Incinerator.    

Chen Yi's Genuine Qi had already recovered thirty percent.    

This was the benefit of breaking through the sixth layer of the [Nine Dragons Thunder Scripture]. The sixth layer, [Nine Dragons Thunder Scripture], was equivalent to completing a low rank Earth Realm skill. The recovery rate brought by this was something that a Mortal Realm skill could not compare with.    

Chen Yi's Genuine Qi was a pure Yang, equivalent to a normal mid stage Genuine Returning Stage. But Chen Yi himself only had Acquired Stage, he was able to let a Genuine Returning Stage expert recover quite a few Genuine Qi's speed in a short period of time, so the effects could be imagined.    

"Thirty percent. Adding the fact that we only have twenty percent left, we should have about fifty percent of the Genuine Qi. That's enough." Chen Yi let out a low roar, and the sound of his sword resonated between heaven and earth. Chen Yi, who had entered the One With the Sword state, brought along nine Flaming Giant Python and charged towards Qi Taotao.    

The reason why Qi Taotao was able to seed it, was because he had a burst of energy in his heart. He felt like he would not admit defeat and felt like he could win with everything he had.    

But now that Chen Yi had appeared, Qi Taotao was in despair and felt that he would lose for sure.    

After trying his best, Qi Taotao instantly exited from the state of explosive seed. The aftereffects caused by explosive seed caused Qi Taotao to feel powerless and his strength greatly decreased.    

Not long after, Qi Taotao was completely defeated by Chen Yi's Nine Dragons Thunder Sword.    

In the end, Chen Yi still won.    

Under the situation where he had used all his trump cards, Chen Yi, with his talent in Acquired Stage, defeated a master at the peak of the Innate Genuine Returning Stage!
