Chapter 1889: Number One in Fierce Wind City
Buzz~
His Great Dao Field, which was a chaotic prototype, appeared in front of Lin Xun, sometimes turning into a deep and boundless abyss, and sometimes turning into an eternal and immortal divine furnace...
The unparalleled laws of the great dao were like a divine chain of order, flickering and surging within it.
Magnificent and unique images of stars swallowing the sky, true dragons, water and fire, immortality, and Tai Chi appeared, and the aura it exuded was so strong that it was enough to make any of his peers despair!
Lin Xun had already set up formations in the room, so there was no worry of being disturbed or noticed by the outside world.
At this time, as he activated his cultivation, his Great Dao Field, which was like a ball of chaos, began to produce a rumbling sound.
It was like a prototype being tempered and polished!
All the insights in Lin Xun's heart were being integrated into his Great Dao Field one by one during this process.
Then...
His Great Dao Field suddenly transformed into a sacred and immortal city that stood under the sky as it was bathed in divine light with towering towers and celestial splendor.Not long after, it transformed into millions of sword shadows, overlapping and dense as if they were endless.
Immediately afterwards, it condensed into thirty-six lotus realms, and each lotus petal revealed the atmosphere of a sacred pure land...
These various forms were from the following Great Dao Fields: White Emperor City, Great Thousand Sword Shadows, and Thirty-Six Lotus Realms!
Following that, Lin Xun's Great Dao Field gradually revealed other different forms, such as the Fire Embers Sword Curtain, Endless Road to Hell, etc.
In the end, these scenes of strange phenomena all returned to the original chaotic and primal state.
It was also at this moment that his primitive, embryonic Great Dao Field suddenly fell into an extreme silence as it quietly floated in the air without a sound or a hint of movement.
Doh!
In Lin Xun's heart, all his perceptions seemed to burst out completely, almost driven by instinct, and a sound of the Dao resounded.
Boom!
The crude Great Dao Field, which had fallen into an extreme silence, began to undergo amazing changes and vaguely morphed into a deep abyss.
It was so large and deep that it seemed to be able to swallow up the entire sky!
Upon closer look, this abyss had also taken on the shape of a furnace that was filled with an immortal aura that was ever changing and evolving.
It looked like a furnace but not a furnace, and like an abyss but not an abyss!
It seemed as if everything had returned to the very beginning, but it gave off a feeling that this was a great step forward, resembling the perfection of nature’s ever changing process.
As Lin Xun pondered on his Great Dao Field, various dao arts appeared. There were true dragons raising their heads and howling, water and fire flowing between heaven and earth, clear and turbid yin and yang qi hanging over the sky and ground, and the charm of immortality and endless life spreading...
A terrifying aura that was enough to make ghosts and gods palpitate also spread.
Boom!
The array covering the room was impacted by this and shook violently, as if it could not withstand the oppression of such a terrifying aura.
A smile appeared on Lin Xun's face.
His Great Dao Field, which was originally in its prototypical form, had now reached a more complete form!
Its power and quality were completely different from what it was in the past.
Crash~
Lin Xun’s mind shifted and his Great Dao Field suddenly disappeared.
It's a pity that there is still one step left to reach ultimate perfection...
But it's enough. When I killed quasi-Emperor Qu Rao, my Great Dao Field could still burst out with incredible power in its previous state. Now that my Great Dao Field is more complete, I should not need to worry about any of my peers breaking it.
Lin Xun had never witnessed an absolutely perfect Great Dao Field, and he wasn’t sure if there was one similar to the one he was searching for in the world.
However, he had a hunch that when the Dao Debate Assembly held by the Great Six Courts kicked off, perhaps, there might be a peerless figure who could control such a Great Dao Field.
After all, the foundation of the Great Six Courts was so huge that it was not an exaggeration to overestimate it.
While Lin Xun was cultivating alone, night had already fallen in Fierce Wind City.
The first day of selections had ended. Among the thousands of participants, only thirty-two had achieved ten consecutive victories and successfully qualified for the second round.
From this, it was easy to imagine how fierce and cruel the competition was!
Other than some mournful sighs, no one cared about the losers.
Tonight, the winners had become the most eye-catching and dazzling figures in Fierce Wind City.
Lin Xun, Chu Qiu, Zhuo Fengying, Gu Jianxing, Gao Lingtian...one by one, those names had caused countless sensations in Fierce Wind City.
Among them, the most eye-catching one was Jin Duyi, Lin Xun’s fake identity!
"One person, ninety-nine consecutive victories, fighting to the end, no one dared to challenge! This is a true example of what it means to be invincible!"
"How powerful is Chu Qiu? How dazzling is Gu Jianxing? But after today's competition, they can only play second fiddle to Jin Duyi. Who could have thought of this result?"
"How to describe Jin Duyi? In one word, stable! Unshakable, unmatched, and terrifyingly stable!"
"Damn, I should have bet heavily on Jin Duyi earlier!"
Similar discussions and uproars could be seen and heard everywhere in Fierce Wind City. Every expert who was talking about today's selection was destined to mention Jin Duyi.
In short, on this night, Jin Duyi had become completely famous by amazing everyone with his incredible feats. He was like a bright sun, shining alone on Fierce Wind City.
In comparison, all the other experts who had participated in the selection were eclipsed by his brilliance!
…
Time went by, and the second day came. The selection for the Dao Debate Contest continued in the Fierce Wind Show Arena.
However, compared with the first day, the battles on the eighteen stages on the second day seemed a bit lackluster.
In fact, this was normal. Almost all of the most popular dazzling figures had successfully advanced on the first day, making the current selection day less exciting.
Although there were other dark horses like Lin Xun, most of them chose to stop fighting after obtaining ten consecutive victories.
Not to mention breaking Lin Xun's battle record, even compared with Chu Qiu and Zhuo Fengying, they seemed much inferior.
At the end of the second day, a total of twenty-three people obtained ten consecutive victories and were qualified to participate in the second round.
The name that was discussed the most that night was still Jin Duyi.
Even though he did not appear in Fierce Wind Show Arena today, he was now the benchmark. No matter who was being talked about, they would always be compared with him.
Therefore, people were becoming more and more aware of the relevance of Lin Xun's ninety-nine consecutive victories.
On the third day, the selections continued on.
Today was also the last day of the first round of selections. In the previous two days, regardless of whether they won or not, all the experts who participated in the Dao Debate Contest had tried their best.
This made this day much more exciting and tragic.
In the end, seventeen participants obtained ten consecutive victories. When added to the number of people who advanced in the previous two days, a total of seventy-two people had the qualifications to enter the second round of the selections in the Dao Debate Contest.
At first glance, seventy-two was not a small number, but this was obtained after weeding from thousands of participants, which was equivalent to eliminating over ninety percent of the contestants!
It was also on this last day that in the Fierce Wind Show Arena, Tao Songting, Madam Yu and the seven other quasi-Emperors jointly announced the person who obtained number one in the first rounds.
Jin Duyi!
He was the top of the top at first place, the leader of all who had participated.
However, this first place was only the first place in Fierce Wind City after all.
As far as Lin Xun knew, there were ten other people who obtained first place in Cloud State.
Moreover, this first place was just during the first round of selections in the Cloud State Dao Debate Contest.
Therefore, Lin Xun was not excited by this.
He didn’t care about winning or losing at all. In fact, being able to obtain first place was unexpected but also within reason.
However, while Lin Xun was not excited, that did not mean that the others were of the same mind.
When this was announced, the huge stadium was full of thunderous voices, exclamations, sighs, cries of worship, and so on.
Even Tao Songting and others were deeply affected.
Prior to this, who could have expected that the top of Fierce Wind City’s selections would be a dark horse that had suddenly appeared?
Ninety-nine consecutive wins!
Such a record was a stunning feat!
On this day, the news that Jin Duyi, Lin Xun’s fake identity, had obtained the number one spot in Fierce Wind City swept through the city like a storm and spread to all directions...
Following that, Jin Duyi’s name also entered more and more cities in Cloud State and was known by more and more cultivators.
All of this had nothing to do with Lin Xun.
At this time, he had left Fierce Wind City with Chu Qiu, Gu Jianxing, Zhuo Fengying and the other contenders who had qualified by following Tao Songting and the others.
The second round of the selections was going to kick off in half a month.
The location was Great Void Mountain, where the Great Void Sect, the number one lineage of Cloud State, was located.
By then, the experts who had advanced in the first round of selections in the other parts of Cloud State would gather together and start the second round of selections along with the disciples of the seven major lineages!
"Young friend, if you are willing, I promise that after you enter the Cloud Star Sect, you will immediately become a core disciple and have your own blessed place for cultivation. In addition, you will enjoy the support of 8 million dao crystals and various cultivation resources every year.
"And, as long as you have any requests, regardless of whether I have the authority to make a decision or not, I will do my best to help you get it!"
Along their way to Great Void Mountain, Madam Yu found Lin Xun and attempted to appeal to him and tempt him with benefits. She used every means she had to win him over, hoping that Lin Xun would join Cloud Star Sect.
Her attitude was so sincere and enthusiastic that Chu Qiu, Zhuo Fengying, and Gu Jianxing, who were traveling with him, couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
This was the treatment that someone at the top got!
It made people feel envious, but also helpless.
In the end, Lin Xun still refused. Of course, he knew that Madam Yu really admired him, but he had long been accepted as a disciple of a different orthodoxy, so it was impossible for him to join another sect again.
In this regard, Madam Yu was disappointed, but she forced herself to be strong and said firmly, "No matter what, I will continue to fight for it!"
Hearing this, Lin Xun couldn't help but smile bitterly. Sometimes being valued too much by others was also a troublesome thing...
