C22 Fighting with spirit treasures

Following the end of the battle between Xiao Yu’er and Wanxiang Manor, the other four battles also gradually came to an end.

Everyone rested for an hour before entering the second round. Xiao Yu’er was assigned to the third round to fight against the winner of the first round.

Amongst the five Spirit Treasures, there was a special Spirit Treasure. This Spirit Treasure was only a middle stage Spirit Treasure, but it was able to stand out amongst the high grade spiritual tool, attracting the attention of the people watching the ceremony.

This totem was forged by a rogue cultivator. It was from Ji Ye, Du An, who was ranked fifth on the Heavenly Profound Ranking. Du An was also an orphan like Liu Chengfeng. He was brought up by his master and passed down refining methods to his. Du An's talent in artifact forging was sparse and ordinary, it was not on the same level as Xiao Yu’er and the others. However, he often traveled to many places with Ji Ye, including the forbidden region of the human race. As a result, this person had a wide range of knowledge and experience.

Du An was arranged to fight with the inner disciple of Great Void Sect for the first round. This battle received a lot of attention from Jiang Cai. As one of the few prodigies in smithing in the Great Void Sect, Wei Xiaosa had a good impression of him. And as the only sect disciple of the Great Void Sect that had come to participate in this competition, Jiang Cai had no reason to not pay attention to him.

The battle was about to begin. Wei Xiaosa had refined a high grade black iron sword. Black iron was extracted from black iron ore in the depths of the Black Sea and was melted by the Core Flame and poured into the ice water of the Heavenly Mountain. After the sword was completed, it was still cut open by Wei Xiaosa's master, Floating Water, using the Rank 5 Qilin Blood. This showed how powerful the sword was.

Du An held a purple treasure bottle in his hand, which released a purple spirit light from the bottle's surface. Anyone who saw the spirit light would be affected, and wouldn't be looked down upon.

When the two met, they asked each other a question and then began to control their spirit artifacts to begin the battle. Wei Xiaosa held the black iron sword, and used a close-range attack. Du An was forced to retreat due to Wei Xiaosa's strange and nimble sword technique. Wei Xiaosa wanted to defeat Du An in a single go, but following that, she activated one sharp sword light after another to slash at Du An, but was completely avoided by Du An.

Du An was not to be outdone, thus he controlled the bottle. Wei Xiaosa was not paying attention to the purple light that was being shot towards her mind. Seizing the opportunity, Du An retaliated with his hand.

Wei Xiaosa who was beaten up immediately stopped her attack to adjust her condition, and carefully sized up the opponent in front of him. Du An was neither fast nor slow, he had a confident look on his face.

The purple light shrouded Du An, preventing him from getting close. At this time, Jiang Cai jumped up anxiously in the spectator's stand.

"It's over, it's all over. This time we're definitely going to lose."

Wei Xiaosa had no choice but to use his sword qi to attack from afar, however the sword qi affected by the purple light could not hit Du An accurately. The two of them stayed in a deadlock for a long time, and in the end, Wei Xiaosa lost due to insufficient Qi.

Du An had won the first battle.

The second battle was between Ouyang Xiu and a disciple of the The Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets. Ouyang Xiu had defeated the disciples of the The Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets in a stomp, and won the second battle.

After all, Earth-ranked spiritual tool and high grade spiritual tool were separated by an entire level. Furthermore, Ouyang Xiu's own cultivation had already reached the late Foundation, no matter if it was the spirit artifact in his hands or his own cultivation alone, it was more than enough to defeat his opponent.

The third battle was more interesting. Liu Chengfeng hoped that Xiao Yu’er could win the battle, and so he was especially concerned about it.

The Hundred Bird Chime was mainly used sound waves to attack the opponent, and the purple treasure bottle was used to influence the owner of the spirit treasure. Xiao Yu’er was at a disadvantage from the start of the battle, the purple light released by the bottle had a huge impact on her, causing her to be unable to control the Spirit Treasure at all.

Without any suspense, Xiao Yu’er lost to Du An.

After all, there was a difference of two ranks between a middle ranked Spirit Weapon and a Earth-ranked spiritual tool. However, it was able to consecutively defeat three high grade spiritual tool, which no one dared to look down upon.

Ouyang Xiu did not underestimate his opponent, and immediately used his full strength.

The purple glow emitted from Du An's purple treasure bottle had indeed affected Ouyang Xiu. To prevent himself from being affected by the purple glow, Ouyang Xiu took out a black cloth and covered his eyes. His actions weren't wrong, it was just that he couldn't clearly see Du An's position.

The people watching the ceremony at the side of the training grounds all shook their heads. They wanted to follow in Wei Xiaosa's footsteps.

Ouyang Xiu was not affected by the outsiders, he still followed his own method. Although he could not see his after he covered his eyes, he could hear his clearly. With that in hand, he walked towards Du An step by step, without being affected by the purple light in the slightest.

"If Du An were to raise the level of the bottle to Earth Stage, then this competition would come to an end." Jiang Cai suddenly said.

"Could it be that there is something special about this bottle?" Liu Chengfeng asked.

"This bottle is made from training Netherworld Stone, and the purple light it emits can affect a person's mind, but because the level is not high, only when the person actively sees the purple light, will they be affected. If he tried hard to make the bottle high-level, or Earth Stage, he wouldn't have to be like this. Even if Ouyang Xiu were to directly attack people's souls through the purple light, he would not be able to do anything to it. "

Liu Chengfeng heard that the strange bottle was made from Netherworld Stone. Only, Jiang Cai did not explain where the Netherworld Stone came from nor how he could be obtained from. Even if Liu Chengfeng wanted to know, he couldn't ask Jiang Cai about anything that he didn't want to say.

Du An waved the bottle as he looked at Ouyang Xiu who was walking towards him step by step, and cold sweat started to appear on his forehead. How could he not want to raise his own treasured bottle to a high level or even earth level? However, the conditions for refining it were very harsh.

He knew that the grade of his treasured vase could only be influenced by others' eyes. Ouyang Xiu had covered his eyes to block off his attack. But he did not admit defeat. He wanted to gamble with Ouyang Xiu not being able to accurately judge his position.

Du An continuously changed his position, moving around the training grounds, even during the process, he did not forget to attack Ouyang Xiu. Although Ouyang Xiu was blindfolded, he could still accurately determine Du An's position and dodge the attack.

At this moment, Ouyang Xiu was only a hundred meters away from Du An, so he suddenly activated the Holy Spirit Demon Slaying Pagoda and released several profound incantations. The Demon Slaying Tower left his palm and flew to the top of Du An's head. Under everyone's cries of surprise, the Demon Slaying Tower slowly grew to the size of a true tower. Ouyang Xiu flew up into the air and sat on the top of the tower with his eyes closed, naturally his hands on his knees.

Du An saw that and shouted that the situation was not good.

The Five Elements Demon Slaying Formation within the Holy Spirit Demon Slaying Pagoda immediately activated, enveloping the entire floating island within. As one of the ten great ancient formations of the Stellar Hall, the Five Elements Demon Slaying Formation was naturally not weak.

The formation shook, and the power of the five elements unceasingly emanated from the tower. The power of metal, the power of plants and vegetation, the power of water, the power of fire, and the power of earth all combined to form the Circulatory Cycle. Under the influence of the power of the five elements, the Martial Arts Practice Grounds underwent a change of four seasons. It was truly astonishing. The five elements also contained the aura of life and death. Life and death intersected with each other on the Grand Dao of Circulatory Cycle, and nothing could escape the Grand Dao of Life and Death.

Under the evolution of the five elements within Du An's treasure bottle, the purple light in it gradually dimmed, obviously suppressed. Seeing that, Du An immediately channeled all of his Qi into the bottle in an attempt to maintain the purple light, but to no avail.

The treasure bottle was then sucked into the pagoda and disappeared. The power of the five elements was also sucked back into the pagoda. The enormous Demon Punisher Pagoda once again transformed into a small pagoda and flew back into Ouyang Xiu's hands.

Ouyang Xiu floated down from the sky, and his left hand impressively held Du An's precious bottle.

"Brother Du, thank you." With that said, he threw the bottle in his hand to Du An.

Sigh!

Du An looked at Ouyang Xiu and sighed, then said, "My bottle is only at the Intermediate Rank, I have no power to fight back in front of your Holy Spirit Execution Demon Tower."

Ouyang Xiu smiled but did not reply.

Just then, the elder in charge of the spirit beast competition from the Xuanqing Palace flew over from the side and congratulated Ouyang Xiu.

Afterwards, under the arrangements of the elder, all the guests went to another floating island and hosted a banquet for them.

At this point, the Spiritual Artifact Appreciation Assembly came to an end.

Liu Chengfeng and Jiang Cai did not have much of a chance to show off, but they did see some of the young geniuses from the Profound Sky Continent. They were not much older than Liu Chengfeng, but they basically had Building Foundation Period and some had even reached Core Formation. Liu Chengfeng's cultivation was not even worth mentioning in front of them.

Through the Spirit Artifact Appreciation Assembly this time, Liu Chengfeng secretly made up his mind to catch up with them.
