Upon hearing Old Mo's words, all the players gasped. What's going on? Is Five-Element Cultivation so terrifying? Doesn't that mean if Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life makes a breakthrough, he could very well become the strongest player in the Foundation Establishment Realm? As long as he has enough Contribution Points, could he steadily crush all players at every Realm? These words came from Old Mo, the First Combat Power player, and there was no exaggeration. Even Old Mo acknowledged Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life.
Atop the Dragon Gazing Terrace, the last player in the Qi Cultivation Realm was sent out. As he executed his hand seals, all the trees on the Dragon Gazing Terrace burrowed into the ground and disappeared.
"Kun Character—Great Creation!" Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life uttered softly, and the ground instantly restored itself. The cracks caused by the trees also vanished at that moment, the ground returning to the state it was in before the contest began. This display of Earth Magic shocked all the Cultivators.
Xu Nian, however, watched the scene quite calmly. He was well aware of Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life's situation; otherwise, he wouldn't have let him represent the Qi Cultivation Realm in the competition.
It was a brilliant victory! At least in Xu Nian's view, it was a very clean and neat victory. Moreover, Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life hadn't revealed too many of his Bottom Cards. He handled it with ease—simple yet brutal—without causing any fatalities. All in all, Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life had performed excellently.
The Celestial Splendor Sect Elder was stunned for Half a Moment before finally announcing, "Qi Cultivation Realm competition, the champion is the Profound Yellow Sect!"
The moment those words were spoken, everyone from the other factions furrowed their brows. This Disciple must not be allowed to live! Such a terrifying Cultivation Technique must be in our hands. This Profound Yellow Sect must also be eradicated. For a time, many were secretly contemplating how to locate the Profound Yellow Sect and then completely obliterate it.
"It's my turn, my turn now!" Dung Beetle excitedly ran onto the Dragon Gazing Terrace, turned his head with a smile, and announced, "All Foundation Establishment Realm fighters, come on up! I'll fight ten... a hundred! I want to fight a hundred!"
Arrogant! If Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life was simply being audacious, then this one called Dung Beetle was utterly beyond arrogant. They were seeing someone so brash for the first time. However, thinking back to Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life's Power, many were also worried about their own Disciples. The Profound Yellow Sect Disciples clearly possessed great Power and had the capital to be arrogant. This Dung Beetle likely had some kind of Bottom Card as well.
At the Celestial Splendor Sect Elder's summons, the Foundation Establishment Realm players walked up with solemn expressions. The Senior Brothers and Sisters in the Golden Core Realm would definitely not compete. After all, Old Mo was a master with absolute Power. Even their Sect Elders and Sect Leaders had begun to dissuade their own Disciples.
Now that the Qi Cultivation Realm competition had already been lost, this match is our only chance. The Foundation Establishment Realm competition must be won, and it must be won beautifully. We can't let this Profound Yellow Sect Disciple continue. Many Disciples, before stepping onto the Arena, swallowed Elixirs they had prepared, crazily boosting their Power until each was just one step from the Golden Core Realm. We absolutely cannot lose this battle!
Dung Beetle, seeing everyone's fervent fighting spirit, nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad. Only this way will I, Dung Beetle, be able to bring out all of my Power." Dung Beetle laughed loudly, "Heaven did not birth me, Dung Beetle; the Way of Stench, an eternal night! Stench, arise!"
Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life, who was using the Communication Ring to let the other Players watch the Live Stream, couldn't help but feel his lips twitch. Quite the act. Does this guy really not know his place?
"Boss is so cool, even his bragging is so stylish!"
"Damn, this guy has actually started taking his posturing seriously."
"Hey, do you guys know Dung Beetle's true Power? Or, besides the Ao Xiang Squad, has anyone seen his full burst?"
"Now that you mention it, I'm not sleepy anymore. For him to have caused such a disturbance in the Demon Beast Forest, he must possess something extraordinary."
"..."
Suddenly, everyone started discussing animatedly. Could it be that Dung Beetle's true Power was unknown to them? Were they finally going to see him make his move?
The Celestial Splendor Sect Elder frowned and said, "Begin. I won't stop you anymore." Having said that, he didn't forget to give Dung Beetle a deep look. This young man is too arrogant. Indeed, he needs a good lesson.
But just as he stepped down from the Arena, a breeze began to sweep across the Dragon Gazing Terrace. Dung Beetle's clothes fluttered in the wind. SWISH! SWISH! The next moment, he was seen soaring into the air, his body surrounded by a swift whirlwind that continued to grow. It looked as if he intended to form a tornado.
That wasn't all! This miniature tornado also carried a pungent stench, so foul it made one nauseous from the mere smell.
"How stinky! What on earth did this guy do?"
"UGH— If you can't beat us, are you just trying to make us sick? Trying to disgust us?"
"Damn it, where is this stink coming from? I can't stand it anymore."
"Block your sense of smell! Let's eliminate this kid first, or we'll all be overwhelmed by this stench!"
"..."
The Foundation Establishment Realm Disciples reacted quickly, each using Spiritual Qi to block their sense of smell. As long as we can't smell it, it'll be fine, right?
Inside the tornado, Dung Beetle scoffed, "Heaven did not birth me, Dung Beetle; the Way of Wind, an eternal night! Wind, arise!"
Instantly, a terrifying gale erupted on the Dragon Gazing Terrace. The tornado grew in magnitude once again. Those who had just entered the Foundation Establishment Realm swayed unsteadily before being sucked into the wind and flung from the Arena by the tornado. It seemed that as long as he was within the tornado, no one could get close to him.
Half Dream, Half Wake, Half Life widened his eyes and clicked his tongue, "How come this guy didn't learn the Five Elements Magic? What's with his Wind Magic?"
"Not sure!" Old Mo also shook his head. Truth be told, it was his first time seeing Wind Magic. Players usually started with Five Elements Magic, and many sought special types of magic to complement their own Power. But so far, not a single special magic had appeared. On the contrary, this Dung Beetle had hidden his abilities so deeply. Wind Magic! This was likely something none of the Players had anticipated.
"Holy smokes! Dung Beetle, this son of a gun, actually possesses Wind Magic?"
"How did he manage that? We've all been playing together; why does he get to have Wind Magic?"
"Where's the Ao Xiang Squad? They must know what's going on!"
"Whoa, hold on! I'll tell you, okay? It's because our Boss discovered a type of Spiritual Medicine in the Demon Beast Forest, and consuming it changed his innate water attribute."
"Changing from water to wind attribute? Are there really hidden Items in this game?"
"You guys keep watching. I'm off to graze in the Demon Beast Forest!"
"..."
It had to be said, Dung Beetle's display of Wind Magic truly shocked everyone. We all agreed to pursue the path of Five Elements Magic, yet you secretly gained a special advantage? What the heck! Hiding such a good thing for yourself? A person like that deserves a beating from the other Players for not sharing!
Atop the Dragon Gazing Terrace, Dung Beetle floated within the tornado, controlling its continuous growth, blowing Disciple after Disciple of the Foundation Establishment Realm off the Dragon Gazing Terrace. For those in the Foundation Establishment Realm, such tactics were tantamount to an overwhelming, higher-dimensional assault.
"No need to even use the Sharingan to deal with you!" Dung Beetle smirked, then began his crushing spree. So what if you're powerful? Time to learn what invincibility in the Foundation Establishment Realm looks like!
The Lin Family Ancestor watched this scene with tightly furrowed brows. This child truly has Talent seen only Once in Ten Thousand Years, to be able to utilize wind to such a degree. There are probably not many among his peers who could do the same. Watching his own Disciples being blown down, the Lin Family Ancestor couldn't help but sigh. The other Lords present could only sigh in resignation as well.
The three Disciples from the Profound Yellow Sect are probably unmatched in their respective Realms. What a pity. The people of the Profound Yellow Sect surprisingly don't understand such a principle: a tall tree attracts the wind. The more exceptional you are, the less others will allow you to grow. Such is the unchanging truth of the Cultivation Realm.
There were still a few Disciples stubbornly hanging on at the Dragon Gazing Terrace, but to Dung Beetle, their persistence was futile. If they persisted, all that awaited them was being blown off the Dragon Gazing Terrace.
A Disciple from Luminous Fire City wore a grave expression. He stealthily retrieved an Elixir from his sleeve and swallowed it. In an instant, a ferocious red aura surfaced on his body, and his aura directly surpassed the Foundation Establishment Realm, reaching the Golden Core Realm!
"Hmm? Has he started taking Elixirs?" Xu Nian frowned slightly, looking toward the Celestial Splendor Sect. After all, they were the organizers, and such matters had to be clarified.
The Celestial Splendor Sect Elder was somewhat taken aback. Taking Elixirs beforehand was one thing, but consuming them openly on the Arena now? Were they treating everyone as blind?
The Celestial Splendor Sect Elder stared at Zhou Fengqi and declared, "Zhou Fengqi, your Disciple is breaking the rules!"
But Zhou Fengqi replied indifferently, "Before the contest, it wasn't stated that we couldn't consume Elixirs. What rule has been broken?"
Shameless! The people of Luminous Fire City really have no shame. Taking Elixirs beforehand was tacitly accepted by most, but to consume them after already being on the Arena was going too far. If one could always rely on Elixirs to compensate for their own Power, couldn't they simply wear down an opponent by continuously consuming Elixirs?
Dung Beetle also noticed the change in the Disciple's aura and swiftly descended from midair. "Resorting to cheating now?" Dung Beetle laughed loudly. "If that's the case, then let me send you on your way!" With that, he began to furiously rub his hands together.
"Wind Escape—Spiral Pill!"
Wind power gathered between his hands, then crazily converged upon them. A sky-blue Spiral Pill, the size of a basketball, was formed between his palms.
Seeing the tornado shrink, the Disciple sneered and charged forward, his Long Sword erupting with a blinding Sword Qi! This strike was comparable to a full-Power blow from a Golden Core Realm Cultivator.
"Die!"
"Been waiting for you to come at me!" Dung Beetle, seeing the opponent taking the initiative, also laughed and charged forward, slamming the Spiral Pill straight into the opponent's chest…
