Chapter 432 The True Form of Dragon and Tiger
Chen Beiwu stood on the life-or-death stage, waiting quietly with a calm expression.
Now that Xiao Yu has accepted the challenge of the life-or-death arena, there is no way he can escape.
"True Martial!"
"True Martial!"
"True Martial!"
Looking at Chen Beiwu's handsome face and demeanor on the stage, the spectator platform suddenly erupted in a near-frenzied cheer.
Chen Beiwu looked in the direction of the sound and immediately saw several excited student cultivators shouting, and even Tong Hui standing in the middle of the crowd, using professional equipment to record the scene.
How many spirit stones did Tong Hui spend to hire these supporting actors?
Chen Beiwu shook his head slightly, not paying too much attention.
As the head of the publicity department, it's perfectly normal for Tong Hui to want to record this rare life-or-death showdown.
"Sister Hua, isn't it pretty?"
Below the stage, Yu Zhaozhen looked at the white-clad figure on the stage with a look of wonder in her eyes.
"The arena of life and death hasn't even started yet, what's so interesting about it?" Yu Zhaohua asked with a puzzled look in her eyes.
"Oh dear, Sister Hua, you don't understand." Yu Zhao smiled sweetly.
Unlike the other women around her who valued looks and strength, she was drawn to the absolute confidence Chen Beiwu exuded at that moment.
"Whether I understand or not doesn't matter, what's important is that the life-or-death arena battle is about to begin!" Yu Zhaohua's eyes flickered as she looked towards the distant sky.
A streak of light flashed past and landed on the life-and-death arena, revealing Xiao Yu's figure.
Chen Beiwu glanced at Xiao Yu a few times, a slight smile playing on his lips.
As expected, due to the influence of the calamity and misfortune, Xiao Yu was unable to successfully achieve the dualistic Dao attainment and advance to the late-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch.
Otherwise, today's confrontation could very well have turned into a fight to the death!
On the other side, Xiao Yu's expression was calm, but he was somewhat agitated inside.
To ensure he possessed overwhelming combat power over Chen Beiwu, he had been attempting to attain enlightenment through duality for the past few days.
But at the last moment, he failed again!
Once is a coincidence, twice is a chance occurrence, but what about the third and fourth time?
The frustration of repeated failures and setbacks intensified Xiao Yu's ominous premonition, and he even subconsciously suspected that his declining luck was related to Chen Beiwu.
But the next second, Xiao Yu put this ridiculous thought out of his mind.
Even his father, Xuan Yuan Zhenzun, could not control the destiny, let alone Chen Beiwu, a newly promoted Zhenjun.
The reason for this phenomenon is mostly because his fortune clashes with that of Chen Beiwu, a person destined for greatness, and his destiny is suppressed, meaning he is not favored by fate.
Just then, a spatial ripple spread out from the center of the life-or-death arena.
Minister Xiao Wangyu of the Ceasefire Department appeared leisurely, and an invisible pressure spread throughout the world, causing the cultivators present to tense up and fall into complete silence.
"I, Xiao Wangyu, have been ordered by the sect leader to wield the Heavenly Ruler and preside over this life-or-death arena battle."
At this point, Xiao Wangyu produced a short ruler about seven inches long in his hand, which he then casually tossed aside, transforming into an invisible defensive barrier that enveloped the entire Life and Death Arena.
"In accordance with the Ironclad Rules of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect's Life and Death Arena, the ruling for this Life and Death Arena contest is as follows:"
"First, this battle is a fight to the death, a fight to the death, and the struggle will not stop unless one side falls."
"Second, in the struggle, there are no restrictions on the means or fear of life and death, but the use of external objects is strictly prohibited, with the exception of the Tongcan beast."
"Third, once life and death are decided, and grudges are settled, after the battle is over, no cultivator may use this as a pretext to cause further trouble. Anyone who violates this rule will be executed."
After the reading was completed, Xiao Wangyu took a step forward and instantly teleported outside the arena of life and death.
"start!"
As soon as he finished speaking, to the surprise of all the cultivators present, Chen Beiwu and Xiao Yu did not suddenly start fighting. Instead, they stood still and faced each other from a distance.
"I do not understand."
Xiao Yu stared intently at Chen Beiwu and said, "It's just a misunderstanding. With your talent and aptitude, you'll eventually achieve the Four Elements Dao and reach the Perfect True Monarch realm. Why insist on clinging to that misunderstanding and choosing to fight me to the death, only to perish here?"
At this point, Xiao Yu paused slightly, his expression turning solemn: "Do you really think you can kill me? Or that you won't die here today?!"
Yes, he didn't understand.
Throughout the entire process, due to the rules of the sect, he had no intention of killing Chen Beiwu.
At most, they would just splash some dirty water, get the Primordial True Qi they wanted, and then further frame Chen Beiwu, making him commit a serious crime, thus eliminating their rival ahead of time.
As for the struggles between the second generation of immortals, a splash of dirty water can be a big deal or a small deal. It's just that everyone uses their own methods to fight without breaking each other. There's no need to risk their lives and their cultivation paths to fight to the death.
"You're already standing on the edge of life and death, why bother with all this nonsense?"
Chen Beiwu retorted, "Go ahead and make your move. It's simply a matter of you dying and me living."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu's energy faltered, and then his eyes flashed with killing intent as he unleashed the terrifying pressure of a mid-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch.
"Very well, very well, what an arrogant brat!"
"Today I'll see just how capable you are, daring to speak of killing me!"
As he spoke, a faint light flickered between Xiao Yu's fingers, and an ancient and domineering aura instantly filled the world, as if the king of all demons had descended.
"roar!"
As darkness fell, a colossal beast came into Chen Beiwu's view.
It is three hundred feet long, and its shape resembles a dragon but without horns. Its head resembles a dragon, and it has three long whiskers under its chin. Its whole body is covered with blue-green dragon scales.
It has four claws on its belly, each claw with three toes, and the tips of the toes are surrounded by a layer of light blue mist, radiating an extremely strong life force.
【Name】：Azure Dragon 【Attributes】：Wood, Water 【Bloodline】：Fourth-Rank Supreme 【Cultivation】：More than two thousand years, less than four thousand years (Fourth-Realm Demon King)
[Mysterious Connection]: Mysterious Azure Rain, Entangling Dragon's Roar, Azure Scales, Water and Wood Heavenly Splendor True Domain —
[Introduction]: A unique spirit dragon born from the transformation of water and wood, its bloodline can be traced back to the ancient Azure Sea Submerged Wood. Although it is not among the Heavenly Dipper Mystic Beasts, its bloodline rank far surpasses that of fourth-order mystic beasts.
"A spirit-transformed dragon?" Chen Beiwu's eyes flickered slightly.
The naturally born and raised exotic dragon is extraordinary. In terms of bloodline combat power, even a fourth-order dragon is far inferior.
Just then, Chen Beiwu's consciousness stirred, and he suddenly turned around.
Suddenly, a giant tiger, seven zhang long, darted out from the shadows behind him.
Its head was ferocious, with four fangs protruding from its mouth, radiating extreme coldness, and its silver vertical eyes on its forehead contained a chilling aura.
Chen Beiwu's gaze did not meet the vertical eye, but as soon as his divine sense swept over it, he felt his mind and magical power frozen, unable to move.
【Name】：Netherworld Tiger 【Attributes】：Metal, Water 【Bloodline】：Tier 4 Supreme Grade 【Cultivation】：Over 3,000 years (Fourth Realm Demon King)
[Mystic Arts]: Metal Escape Water Shadow, Shadow Thorn, Netherworld Cold Eyes, Profound Yin Slaughtering Netherworld True Domain —
[Introduction]: A special mystical beast that dwells in the Nine Nether Profound Pool. It is skilled in killing and escape techniques and is a natural top hunter. It ranks twelfth on the Heavenly Gang Mystical Beast List and is also the most representative companion beast of the proud sons of the Tianyuan Xiao family.
"boom!"
The Xuan Tong technique worked, and the Netherworld Tiger's claws descended, five cold rays from its toes tearing through space as it slammed into Chen Beiwu's chest.
"Snap!"
"puff!"
At the moment his protective true qi collapsed, Chen Beiwu's body stiffened, he spat out blood, and was torn in two by the giant tiger claw. His physical body, which was comparable to the defense of a third-grade high-quality magic weapon, also exploded and turned into a pile of flesh and blood, splattering blood on the life and death stage.
"How is that possible!"
Seeing this one-sided crushing victory, the young prodigies watching from the cloud platform exclaimed in surprise.
However, Xiao Yu showed no joy on his face, and his divine sense, comparable to that of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, suddenly erupted.
"Your illusion technique is quite good; ordinary Nascent Soul True Monarchs would find it difficult to see through, but don't even think about hiding it from my Heavenly Eye."
At this point, Xiao Yu looked up at the sky and said, "Open!"
Golden light swirled and shot towards the sky. Xiao Yu's forehead revealed an eye that opened, revealing the power to see through illusion and perceive the truth, and to observe all things.
Wherever his gaze fell, the flesh and blood that Chen Beiwu had turned into suddenly vanished, replaced by an extremely sharp and terrifying threat that suddenly attacked him from behind with lightning speed.
"roar!"
At the critical moment, the Xuanqi Azure Dragon raised its head, its azure light surging, and collided head-on with the Golden Egg Dragon Claw, unleashing a shockwave that ravaged the heavens and earth.
"Nice eyes!"
The golden egg lowered its eyes and met the gaze of the Xuanqi Azure Dragon, its eyes constantly gathering killing intent.
Immediately, the two giant dragon bodies expanded at a visible speed, and a fierce battle began between the four demon kings.
Although the Golden Egg's cultivation level was lower and its power was inferior to that of the Azure Dragon, it relied on the formidable defense provided by the Three Phases Indestructible and the Three Phases Furnace to exchange injuries and not be at a disadvantage at all.
At this moment, Chen Beiwu had already appeared to Xiao Yu's right, and with a single seal, he struck down the Primordial World-Suppressing Seal, one of the Five Primordial Calamities Seals.
Once this seal was created, it evolved into the Primordial Heaven, transforming the shape of Mount Buzhou and eternally suppressing the universe.
As the most powerful of the Five Primordial Seals, the Primordial World-Suppressing Seal is majestic and ingenious, capable of crushing enemies and suppressing their various magical arts with the force of Mount Buzhou.
In an instant, Xiao Yu's aura plummeted to rock bottom, rendering him unable to move. He could only watch helplessly as Chen Beiwu's Primordial World-Suppressing Seal crashed down heavily.
If one were to take this attack head-on, an ordinary mid-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch would find it difficult to escape death.
In the blink of an eye, the Netherworld Tiger roared, its four paws treading on the air. Its dark blue fur was like flowing crystal, rippling with spatial ripples, blocking Xiao Yu's way and unaffected by the Primordial World-Suppressing Seal.
boom!
boom!
boom!
Struck by the Primordial World-Suppressing Seal, the Netherworld Tiger's neck collapsed and its head drooped. However, relying on the Three Immortals possessed by the Fourth Realm Demon King, it managed to raise its head and slowly push back. At the same time, it spat out a dark blue beam of light from its mouth, which struck Chen Beiwu's heart.
"Hey!"
Schiller activated his Myriad Transformations Mystic Power, transforming into a water-attribute Heavenly Dipper Mystic Beast. He regarded the dark blue pillar of light as nothing, then reached out and gently patted it, completely annihilating it.
Taking advantage of the opportunity created by the Netherworld Tiger, Xiao Yu activated his teleportation technique and disappeared from the spot.
The next instant, Crimson Nirvana Flame erupted from where Xiao Yu had been standing, burning the heavens and earth. The extreme heat was enough to severely injure a mid-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch.
"Dealing with a Nascent Soul stage True Monarch who has opened their Heavenly Eye is troublesome." Chen Beiwu frowned slightly, thinking to himself.
The cultivation path of the Nascent Soul True Monarch in the Southern Wilderness differs from that of the Immortal Alliance; the Immortal Alliance's Four Elements Proving Dao does not exist.
Not to mention performing the ritual of seeking truth and position to open the heavenly eye for the nascent soul.
It was precisely because of this that Chen Beiwu did not find it particularly troublesome to face a mid-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch in the Southern Wilderness.
As long as Jin Dan, Tie Dan, and Xue Le create a suitable opportunity, he can severely injure or even kill a mid-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch with a single strike of the Cave Heaven Tribulation True Finger.
However, the True Lords of the Immortal Alliance are different, especially second-generation immortals like Xiao Yu, who were born into the Dao Venerable Immortal Clan and have many secret cultivation methods.
Even if every True Monarch in the Immortal Alliance successfully attains the Dao of One Yuan, they will all open their Heavenly Eye and gain the ability to see the truth without exception. However, the difference in a cultivator's talent, foundation, and participation in the fundamental laws can determine the strength of the Heavenly Eye's power.
Without a doubt, Xiao Yu's Heavenly Eye was able to see through the Great Evolution of the Golden Egg, and even if he only sensed something was amiss, it was still a top-tier Heavenly Eye in the Immortal Alliance.
Chen Beiwu was not surprised by this.
If Xiao Yu were so easy to kill, he wouldn't have earned the great reputation of the Law-Breaking True Monarch.
"If this is all you've got, then die here today!"
Xiao Yu formed hand seals, his eyes blazing with killing intent. A dragon and a tiger on his left and right cooperated to unleash profound powers, causing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to tremble. This made the hearts of countless spectators sink and their breath catch in their throats.
Xiao Yu's talent was not outstanding enough to cultivate the thirty-six Hunyuan Immortal Techniques of the Jade Purity Immortal Sect. He could only cultivate the Xiao family's pseudo-immortal-grade technique, "The Secret Record of the Jade Purity Dragon and Tiger True Form Combined Refinement".
Even a pseudo-immortal technique is still an immortal technique. By relying on the fundamental technique and the Heavenly Ending Scene, Xiao Yu controlled the dragon and tiger to converge, yin and yang to reverse, and summoned the true forms of the Heavenly Gang Dragon and Tiger. He then activated the true forms of the dragon and tiger to refine the true domain, which could easily suppress a late-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch.
"Mysterious Qi and Azure Spirit, Dark and Mysterious Shadows, follow my will, dragon and tiger unite!"
As soon as he focused his mind, Xiao Yu's Golden Core in his Dantian and his Nascent Soul in his Sea of Consciousness erupted with a deafening roar.
Two streams of celestial energy, one green and one blue, swept out, enveloping the Xuanqi Azure Dragon and the Youxuan Netherworld Tiger, unleashing a vast pressure comparable to a late-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch.
Tiangang Zhengfa, cast my Dharma image! "
Xiao Yu's figure blurred, and behind him, boundless light surged wildly, as a majestic Dharma image descended with a roar.
It stands 9,999 feet tall, majestic and imposing, its head resembling that of the Demon-Subduing Heavenly Venerable, who can command it to vanquish evil.
Its right arm blocked out the heavens and earth, gleaming with a dark blue light, and a faint image of a blue dragon coiled and roared could be seen.
His left foot suppressed the eight directions, and beneath his foot, a black tiger lay prostrate, exuding endless domineering and murderous aura.
The true forms of the Heavenly Dragon and Tiger are complete!
As the Dharma form took shape, the True Form of Dragon and Tiger Combined Refinement Realm unfolded, completely enveloping the entire Life and Death Arena and emitting an aura that made Chen Beiwu's heart tremble.
It should be noted that although Xiao Yu was of a higher cultivation level, he had never been able to make Chen Beiwu feel any threat.
But now that he was in Xiao Yu's True Domain of Co-existence, Chen Beiwu's spiritual senses could clearly detect a killing intent that made his skin go cold.
"So they're finally getting serious?"
Chen Beiwu narrowed his eyes and unleashed the Heavenly End Scene [The Great Sun Shines, the Five Elements Revolve, the Three Phases of Heaven and Earth Ascend to the Primordial Chaos Scene].
As a mid-stage Nascent Soul True Monarch, the Upper Yi True Monarch, Blood Marrow True Monarch, and Bitter Soul True Monarch he killed in the Southern Wilderness were simply not worthy of carrying the shoes of the Law-Breaking True Monarch Xiao Yu.
Fortunately, things are different now. After refining the Infant Nourishing Liquid, Chen Beiwu's strength is far greater than before.
The instant Xiao Yu unleashed his Dharma form, Chen Beiwu had already prepared his own killing move.
"Oh no, it's the true form of the Heavenly Dragon and Tiger!"
Meanwhile, outside the Life and Death Arena, Yu Zhaozhen couldn't see the specific situation inside the True Domain and couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
The Heavenly Dragon and Tiger True Form Dharma Image of the Tianyuan Xiao Family appears to be about domination, but in reality, it is meant to represent freedom and can embody the ultimate freedom. Its power is extremely formidable.
If Chen Beiwu were to simply face the Heavenly Gang Dragon Tiger True Form Dharma Image, things would be alright. However, if he were to be eroded by the combined True Realm of the Dragon Tiger True Form, at least half of his cultivation and combat power would be lost, leading to his tragic death.
