Chapter 532: Evenly Matched
The golden Panlong stared at Zhao Jian with a pair of blood-red eyes shining coldly.
An invisible chilling aura instantly spread across the arena. After transforming into a five-clawed golden dragon, Long Zhanye's mid-stage aura also came out, causing everyone under the ring to exclaim again.
At this moment, among the top ten high-ranking disciples, only Ling Feng could maintain some composure, and the faces of the others were more or less surprised.
Shi Mu withdrew his gaze from the golden dragon, and immediately turned to Zhao Jian, with a pensive look on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.
Zhao Jian frowned slightly, but the expression on his face did not change much. He slowly moved the giant purple ax in his hand to his body, assuming a fighting posture.
The golden dragon snorted, spewed out two streams of dragon breath, and then opened its mouth wide. A golden flame surged out from the mouth, turning into a thick spiral pillar of fire, and rushed straight towards Zhao Jian.
The speed was so fast that Zhao Ji was less than ten feet away in the blink of an eye!
At this moment, Zhao Jian held the ax in one hand, and rested the other hand against the axe, blocking the huge purple ax in front of him like a shield.
The blazing flames poured down, all of which poured on the purple axe, and the flames flowed back from the ax surface to the surroundings, which made the temperature around the entire ring rise a lot.
In just a blink of an eye, the surface of the purple giant ax turned red, and the center was burnt to a certain degree of transparency. I'm afraid that within a short while, this spiritual weapon will be burned to waste by the true flame of the dragon.
At this moment, the black light on Zhao Jian's right arm suddenly lit up, and quickly spread upwards, enveloping the entire purple giant axe.
Everyone saw that the crimson color on the purple giant ax quickly receded, and even the golden flames that spewed on it also weakened a lot, and the temperature around the ring dropped a bit accordingly.
Seeing this situation, the golden dragon hovering in mid-air let out a roar, and swiped its giant tail downward.
Zhao Jian was caught off guard, and was caught in mid-air by the giant tail.
His hands were tied to his sides by the dragon's tail, and the purple giant ax also fell down, and he couldn't get out of the trap for a while.
The golden panlong let out a roar, and the strength on its tightly curled giant tail suddenly increased.
Zhao Jian heard the sound of the golden scales of the dragon's tail rubbing against each other, and felt a squeezing force as heavy as a mountain.
At the same time, his figure was squeezed, every inch of his bones sounded like "cracking" friction, and his originally fair face also turned red, as if he was about to condense blood.
In mid-air, the red-browed young man who was the referee frowned, and was hesitating whether to step forward to end the fight, when suddenly, there was a low roar of a beast in the field.
"Aw!"
Zhao Jian, who was about to be squeezed into a distorted figure, suddenly turned to the sky and let out an angry howl, his face became even more blood red, but two golden lights shone in his eyes.
Seeing this situation, Shi Mu was shocked.
Under his gaze, the clothes on Zhao Jian's body were torn apart, his muscular muscles bulged rapidly, and countless thick, long and thick silver hairs grew out of his whole body, including his face.
Sharp white teeth grew from its mouth, two thick and long fangs protruded from between the lips and teeth, and long sharp claws grew from its fingers. In just a short while, it turned into a white giant ape over ten feet tall. The blue light in both eyes is faint.
"Stone, what's the matter with that white giant ape? Why is it so similar to you?" Cai'er asked via voice transmission.
"This Zhao Jian's body may also be fused with the blood of the white ape." Shi Mu pondered for a moment, then replied.
After turning into a giant ape, Zhao Jian's aura soared, and he immediately broke away from the golden dragon's shackles. With a big hand, he grabbed the golden dragon's tail.
I saw that the golden dragon retracted its giant tail suddenly, turned its body around abruptly, and rushed towards the sky, sticking to the body of the white giant ape.
When one of its giant claws danced, it grabbed the white ape's chest fiercely, bringing out a bunch of blood.
"Aw!"
The white ape suffered from the pain, let out a roar, took a big stride, and leaped into the air, stretched out his arm like lightning, grabbed the tail of the golden dragon, pulled it down violently, and lifted it from mid-air pulled down.
"Bang" a loud noise!
As soon as the golden dragon landed, the white giant ape leaped up again, clenched a fist with its left hand, wrapped in white light, and slammed towards its head with tremendous force.
"Boom!"
There was another loud bang, and more than half of the dilapidated arena suddenly collapsed.
However, when the smoke and dust subsided a little, there was no golden dragon in the collapsed ruins, which aroused the surprise of everyone present.
"Jie Jie!"
At this time, on the other side of the ring, there was a strange laugh.
Everyone saw Long Zhanye, who had turned into a human again, standing there covered in blood, with a ferocious smile on his lips, looking at the white ape not far away.
His left hand was still holding a claw, and there was still some blood on the fingertips, which belonged to Zhao Jian.
"That's right! The Nine Turns Xuan Gong is really good, but that's it!" Long Zhanye said with a mouthful of blood.
As soon as he finished speaking, his fingers were stained with Zhao Jian's blood, and quickly drew a complex back-shaped pattern on his heart, and then chanted an obscure secret mantra, and grabbed his heart with one claw.
"噗嗤" Five fingers penetrated the penis, went deep into the heart, and blood splashed out.
"Aw!"
A heart-piercing howl suddenly sounded in the midair of the ring, but it did not come from Long Zhanye, but from Bai Yuan's mouth.
As soon as the white ape flew up, he suddenly fell heavily from midair, clutching his heart, his face showing pain and struggle.
"Boom"
"Boom...boom"
In the ears of everyone present, there was a sound like a drum beating at the same time.
"Is this... Zhao Jian's heartbeat?" Shi Mu frowned slightly, startled.
Accompanied by the sound, the hearts of everyone present seemed to be beating with the rhythm, and a feeling of boredom suddenly rose.
Shi Mu frowned, and quickly circulated the true energy in his body to protect his heart.
After a while, the sound of "dong dong" not only did not attenuate, but became more intense, like a thunderclap exploding in the ear.
On the arena, the white giant ape struggled to stand up, but just took two steps towards this side, then fell down again, looking at the eyes of Long Zhanye, two lines of blood slowly seeped out.
The weaker disciples around the ring retreated in a hurry, and when they slowed down, blood began to ooze from their eyes, ears, mouth and nose.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in a blue shirt, one of the three protectors sitting on the blue ring, suddenly appeared on the battle ring.
I saw his hands overlapping in front of his chest for a while, blue light surged from his body, and a huge blue-lighted double fish pattern was shot under his hands, spinning towards the ring and covering it down.
As soon as this layer of blue light fell, it instantly enveloped the entire arena.
At the same time, in the ears of the disciples around the ring, the sound of the heartbeat suddenly disappeared, and the pain in the heart immediately disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared before.
However, the white ape on the ring was not so lucky. He only felt a burst of tearing pain in his heart, but his eyes were blood red, and even his consciousness became blurred.
Suddenly, he gritted his steel teeth, slammed his fists on the ground, raised his body a few feet, raised his head, and let out an angry howl in Long Zhanye's direction.
"Aww!"
Accompanied by this angry howl, circles of airflow fluctuations visible to the naked eye suddenly blasted towards Long Zhanye.
Long Zhanye's right hand still pierced his chest like a claw, and his face was as pale as paper. Obviously, he was quite uncomfortable with this kind of mind control secret technique.
Facing the blow of the white ape, he was powerless to resist after all. He was shocked by the fluctuation of the airflow, and suddenly flew upside down and fell to the ground.
At the same time, the raised head of the white ape dropped again, its body softened, and it fell heavily on the ground together with Long Zhanye not far away.
As soon as Qi Fang fell to the ground, the light flashed from his body, and his figure shrank rapidly, reverting to Zhao Jian's appearance.
Before the red-browed youth could make a move, the middle-aged man in the blue shirt flew over to the ring.
With a wave of his palm, a piece of light blue light like a wave covered the area, enveloping Zhao Jian and the two of them.
"In this round, both Zhao Jian and Long Zhanye fought to the point of exhaustion, it is considered a draw, and the two maintain their original rankings."
After the man in the blue shirt said this, he waved his sleeves and rolled up the two people who had passed out, stepping into a blue vortex, and disappeared in a flash, regardless of the reaction of the crowd. .
After the three people left, the ring immediately exploded, and there was a lot of discussion everywhere. Obviously, no one expected that the ending would be like this.
Not only under the ring, but even among the 108 high-ranking disciples, many of them were discussing in whispers.
Shi Mu looked at the arena where he had fought fiercely just now, his eyes flickered, and he fell into deep thought.
The red-browed young man who was the referee was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses. He glanced around and shouted loudly:
"quiet!"
Accompanied by the sound, an invisible coercion instantly swept towards the disciples around the ring.
There was a commotion in the crowd at first, and then quickly quieted down.
"The last game is over, next, is there anyone who wants to take the initiative to challenge?" the red-browed youth raised his voice and asked.
There was a moment of silence among the remaining high-ranking disciples on the ring, and a few of them looked at Shi Mu hesitantly, but they still didn't dare to challenge him after all.
"If no one challenges after ten breaths, I will announce the end of the third round of the trial." After a while, the red-browed youth said.
As soon as he finished speaking, the queue fell silent.
The red-browed young man didn't say anything to urge him anymore, he just hung in the air and waited quietly.
Time passed by breath by breath, until the eighth breath passed, and suddenly a person in the queue stepped forward and walked out.
"Disciple Shi Mu, the thirty-seventh, challenge the second-ranked brother Ling Feng." Shi Mu turned around and said to the person on the far left of the queue.
As soon as his words came out, a commotion broke out again in the crowd that had been quiet for a while, and the voices of discussion continued one after another:
"Are all the new disciples going crazy this year? One has tied for the top spot in the Qinglan Ranking, and the other is coming to challenge for the second?" Someone shouted from the audience.
"Could it be that Shi Mu was dazzled by the previous victory?"
"Maybe he still has some hidden means? This kid is the best at pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger!"
