Chapter 259 – Battle against the Empty Phase

Chapter 259: Battle against the Empty Phase
The Empty Phase had a smile on his face and bowed towards Xiao Qi with his hands together, “I apologize.”

Xiao Qi’s face was green for a while and white for a while, after fighting for so long, he finally realized that the empty phase was treating him as a tool to refine his divine sense.

It was all his fault that he had been so slow in the beginning, and that he had attempted to turn the Empty Phase into a whetstone, thus losing the first opportunity.

If he were to do it again, he would never do so.

Xiao Qi took a deep breath, returned a salute towards Empty Phase, and jumped down from the ring.

After the Empty Phase defeated Xiao Qi, he took out his wooden fish again and started guarding the ring.

Even Xiao Qi of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect was not his opponent, let alone the other disciples.

In a while, Empty Phase won five matches in a row, and his popularity almost overshadowed even Xiao Qi from before.

Yue Lingzheng frowned slightly, his gaze crossing over the several disciples who had yet to go into battle.

The fight had already gone on for most of the game, and the Easy Sect had only scored a mere four points at this point.

The total score temporarily ranked second from the bottom, only two or three points higher than the first from the bottom, Cold Mountain Sect, and could be overtaken at any time.

After winning five games in a row, Immeasurable Sect’s total score had surpassed Ten Thousand Swords Sect, temporarily leading.

If they won a few more games, they would undoubtedly establish an even greater advantage that no one would be able to surpass.

Empty Phase was powerful, not only was his divine sense outstanding, but his Buddhist attainments were even more profound.

The remaining disciples, although they are all carefully selected elites from various peaks, but in terms of strength, I’m afraid that they are far from being the rivals of Empty Phase.

Regardless of who is on the field, they are just giving away points.

Yue Ling was sighing inwardly, but he heard a voice, “Disciple is willing to fight.”

He sniffed and looked over, seeing that it was Xu Chuniang who had requested to fight, and did not agree at first.

Among the remaining disciples, she was the only one with a cultivation level of the second Foundation Establishment layer, and with Little Tiger’s assistance, she might even be able to win back a point or two for the clan in the sparring match afterward.

And at this time to go out to battle to challenge the empty phase was almost giving away points, it made no difference who went.

The words of refusal reached his lips, after his eyes touched her determined look, Yue Lingzheng suddenly had a movement in his heart.

Perhaps, she had a few moments of certainty before she took the initiative to offer her services?
“Since you are willing to fight, then go. Play well, it doesn’t matter if you lose.”

Xu Chuniang nodded, “Disciple understands.”

After saying that, she walked towards the ring with a calm expression.

It wasn’t true that the Empyrean Divine Sense was strong, but her Divine Sense was equally not weak.

Xu Chuniang had won first place in the Imperial Beast Competition before and had some popularity, and her appearance drew a lot of discussion.

“She’s the one from before, the Easy Sect disciple who won points by relying on spirit beasts, what was her name?”

“Called Xu Chuniang, if I’m not mistaken, she should be a Royal Beast Master who relies on spirit beasts to fight. Her spirit beast is very strong. It’s just that it’s useless for spirit beasts to be powerful, without cultivating divine sense, they’re ultimately no match for cultivators.”

“If she was a Royal Beast Master, nine times out of ten, she would lose. After all, her opponent is Empty Phase.”

Xu Chuniang didn’t hear the voices of discussion around her.

There were special formations on the ring, and those sounds simply couldn’t reach her ears.

As the bout was announced to begin, the Empty Phase took out the wooden fish with a peaceful demeanor, chanting sutras under his breath and pounding more than once.

The sound of the wooden fish’s tapping, at first hearing, was nothing special, simple and pure, and even made people unable to resist wanting to listen to it for a while longer.

With the passage of time, the sound of the wooden fish knocking became more and more frequent, together with the empty phase of the oral incantation, can easily induce all kinds of negative emotions in the heart of the cultivator, thus affecting the battlefield.

Empty phase’s mouth chanting sutra, hand knocking wooden fish, precious appearance as solemn as a holy monk. Seeing this scene, the Immeasurable Sect’s senior monks were certain in their hearts.

The opposite female cultivator didn’t choose to attack strongly and destroyed the wooden fish at the first time, only to fear that it would be difficult to escape the end of failure.

There were not a few others who held the same thought.

Want to crack the empty phase of the divine sense interference method, either the divine sense is strong and completely unaffected, or at the beginning of the wooden fish sound, it will be interrupted.

Previously, two disciples had made such an attempt, but failed.

This female disciple of the Easy Sect had already lost half the battle by not grabbing the attack. Unless her divine sense was really stronger than the empty phase’s.

Above the ring, after the fight had begun, Xu Chuniang didn’t make a move, but instead quietly felt the divine soul power that was eroding from all directions as the sound of the wooden fish knocking resounded.

It was just that those divine soul forces were too weak, and after crashing into her divine sense, they nearly collapsed and swept back.

The Empty Phase’s divine soul was agitated, her face suddenly turned white, and the sound of the wooden fish’s knocking then stopped.

He looked in the direction where Xu Chuniang was, his eyes showing horror, that kind of powerful divine sense, was it really something that a cultivator at the early stage of Foundation Establishment could possess?

Empty phase took a deep breath, barely suppressed the horror in his heart, put away the wooden fish in his hand, and used his spiritual energy to condense a golden giant eagle, and then used his divine sense to control the giant eagle towards the other party.

Xu Chuniang raised her head and looked at the oncoming giant eagle, a thought rising in her heart.

I don’t know if Little Orange’s hand of light blue light curtain could swallow this giant eagle made of spiritual energy in front of her.

But she wouldn’t let Little Orange have such a good opportunity for actual combat.

Xu Chuniang’s hand flickered with spiritual light, and soon condensed a four-qi and four-qi aura bomb, shooting towards the eagle’s head.

The giant eagle sensed the danger and let out a short cry, changing direction in the air in an attempt to avoid the aura bullet.

However, once the aura bomb was cast, it had the effect of automatic tracking, the giant eagle was unable to avoid it, and finally chose to use its body to resist the aura bomb.

The huge impact of the Aura Bomb’s eruption caused the giant eagle’s body to vibrate, while its golden light also dimmed.

The giant eagle gave an angry cry and swooped down again.

At the same time, a second giant eagle was spawned from the empty phase’s hand, and came in a pincer attack with the previous one.

Xu Chuniang’s heart moved, and white mist was released from around her body in a steady stream, instantly concealing most of her figure.

The two giant eagles’ vision was blocked by the white mist, losing their target, they immediately stopped moving forward.

The white mist was still expanding in all directions, until it completely covered the entire ring, and then it stabilized.

Empty phase heart suspicion, this white fog do not know what is, not only can block the line of sight, more can block the divine sense.

If he was the only one affected by this white fog, the battle would be very unfavorable to him.

He was secretly vigilant in his heart, and recalled the two giant eagles, one on the left and one on the right, guarding his body against any possible attack at any time.

Xu Chuniang wandered through the white mist, using the cover of the white mist to continuously approach the empty phase.

This water mist barrier was not as useless as she had imagined.

For those whose divine sense was inferior to hers, it could be extremely useful, but for those whose divine sense was strong enough, this layer of water mist barrier was virtually useless.

And her divine sense is strong enough, so the water mist barrier, for the same level of cultivators, can almost be said to be invincible.

Xu Chuniang’s aura surged in her hands, and before long, a new aura bullet emerged from her fingertips and flew rapidly towards where the empty phase was.
