Pill God Returns

Zhou Yi let out a miserable cry. Before he could use the Heaven and Earth Changing Technique, he was struck by the fist of the Immortal King. A tremendous force violently smashed onto his body, causing him to fall to the ground on the spot.    

"Bang!"    

The solid fighting stage began to shake violently at this moment. A surging force burst out from it.    

Zhou Yi was smashed to the ground, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He had suffered a great injury.    

"Number 32 wins."    

The referee announced the final result.    

"Haha, as expected, he won."    

"Not only that, he also advanced."    

"He advanced? Why do you say that? Isn't the elimination round not over yet?"    

"It's not over yet. There's still one more match. In the next match, regardless of the outcome, he will be able to advance smoothly."    

"That's true. With his current points, even if he loses the next match, it won't affect his advancement."    

The people of Beichen House were also incomparably happy. Just like everyone had thought, no matter if Wu Chen won or lost in the later matches, he would still advance.    

To Wu Chen, defeating Zhou Yi wasn't difficult at all. Although Zhou Yi was a Peak Of the Ninth Empyrean of Astral Reaching Stage expert, in terms of strength, it wasn't difficult for him to defeat Zhou Yi. If Wu Chen wanted to defeat him... Wasn't that simple?    

As for Zhou Yi's Heaven and Earth Changing Technique, it was indeed a good technique. Unfortunately, his current strength was still very weak, and he was unable to exert the full power of this technique.    

Soon, this round of battles ended. Up until now, the Beichen House had maintained a winning record. It was also Xiao He, Hou Junji, Shun Yan, Liu Song and Peng Yang. Whether they won or lost the next battle, they still had a record. As for the others, Xia Youlan was the only one who had advanced. The others had failed twice or more times, basically because they were not fated to advance.    

Very quickly, the next round of battles began. Shun Yan's number was relatively close to the front, so it was soon her turn to go on stage. The opponent she met this time wasn't weak, it was a true disciple of Hanging Mountain. And he was ranked fifth among the top ten disciples, expert at the Ninth Empyrean of Astral Reaching Stage. However, the result had exceeded the expectations of many people. Even the fifth ranked disciple of Hanging Mountain was still unable to stop Shun Yan's winning streak. After ten rounds, Shun Yan had defeated his opponent and won.    

"Congratulations, junior sister. You have successfully advanced."    

Xia Youlan was full of smiles when she saw Shun Yan defeating his opponent and getting the permission to advance. She was even happier than herself.    

Shun Yan said, "Senior Sister, you must advance as well."    

Xia Youlan said, "Junior sister, I will work hard."    

The others were also amazed. All along, Shun Yan had given them the impression that he was a loner. In the Beichen House, Xia Youlan was the only one who was good with him. Basically, he had never fought a battle. Therefore, they had always treated her true strength. They didn't know much about her. Now that they were in the Immortal Tao Exchanging Event at Holy Land... Only now did they understand how terrifying this cold beauty's true combat strength was. Perhaps, only Hua Yangfei dared to say that he could defeat her. As for the others, even Xiao He and Hou Junji did not dare to say that.    

Time slowly passed, and the battles gradually came to an end. To most people, this battle was their last battle. Because with their current points, they were no longer able to level up. They were about to be eliminated, but once they were eliminated... Then... In the next few days, they could only act as spectators.    

"Group 3, Number 20, and Number 25, come on stage"    

Hearing this call, Xia Youlan's immortal body suddenly trembled. It was finally her turn to fight.    

Like many people, this battle, to her, was... If she was unable to win... Then... She would also be ruthlessly eliminated, and from then on, she would not be able to participate in the ranking competition. In future competitions, she would only be a spectator. She would only be a spectator.    

Of course. If she was lucky enough to win, then the meaning would be completely different.    

"Who is Number Twenty-Five?" Hou Junji asked. Xia Youlan was his woman. How could he not care about such an important battle?    

Liu Song said, "If I remember correctly, this person should be the number one true disciple of Heavenly Wind Sect, Ma Yuan, with a Ninth Empyrean of Astral Reaching Stage cultivation base."    

"The number one true disciple of Heavenly Wind Sect, a Ninth Empyrean of Astral Reaching Stage cultivation base?"    

Each word was like a talisman. They were deeply imprinted in Xia Youlan's mind. Regarding her own strength... She knew very well how to deal with an Eighth Empyrean of Astral Reaching Stage warrior. She still had some confidence, but if it was expert at the Ninth Empyrean of Astral Reaching Stage... It was hard to say. The chance of victory was very small.    

Hou Junji comforted her, "You Lan, don't be afraid. He's just a true disciple of Skywind Sect. It's no big deal."    

The Heavenly Wind Sect was a moderate sect. The strongest young man among them was the opponent that Xia Youlan met this time, Ma Yuan, expert at the Ninth Empyrean of Astral Reaching Stage.    

"Senior sister, I believe that you will definitely win this battle." Shun Yan said the same thing.    

Xia Youlan looked at the others. Everyone was looking at her with eyes full of encouragement. She took a deep breath and nodded, "Okay, I will definitely win this battle."    

After saying that, she stood up and walked towards the fighting stage under the encouraging gazes of everyone.    

This battle, even if it was not for herself, for her friends, and for the sect, she would do her best to win this battle.    

"Her name is Xia Youlan, right? I heard that she is one of the ten great true disciples of Beichen House."    

"En, that's true. I remember that in the morning, she met a powerful expert from the Taiyi Sect. In the end, she was defeated and lost."    

"Did she fail? Doesn't that mean she won't have the chance to advance?"    

"That's not necessarily true. Although she lost one match, she performed well in other battles. If she can still win this match, then she has a chance to advance."    

"This battle will probably be in danger."    

"Isn't that so? expert at the Ninth Empyrean of Astral Reaching Stage was very powerful. With her cultivation base and strength, it would be very difficult for her to defeat him. If it was Shun Yan, perhaps she would be able to defeat him. "    

"Shun Yan, that woman is indeed terrifying. She has a chance of advancing to the top thirty, or even the top twenty."    

"That's right, that's right."    

"It's a pity that it isn't Shun Yan who is going to fight, but Xia Youlan. Whether she can defeat Ma Yuan or not is unknown."    

"Let's wait and see. It's still too early to say this now. After the battle ends, we will know the final result."    

" Okay."
