True Solution of the Sword Dao

"So many people actually died?"

In the white number one competition area, the empty field was populated by a group of people crowding around a man clad in a white cloak with golden edges, standing regal in the center of the field as if he were surveying his own territory.

"Indeed, at least fifty percent of the new warriors in each zone have perished. All our isolation protective devices have malfunctioned." A Silver Armored Guard knelt in front of the man. "The staff at the Teleportation Management have all disappeared. All teleportation formations were preprogrammed."

The man nodded, "I see, you may go back."

"Yes." The Silver Armored Guard stood up, bowed his head, backed away a few steps, then turned and quickly left.

An old man with white beard by the man’s side asked doubtfully, "Your Highness Alpha, there should have been people from the New Warriors’ Oversight Council supervising the competition. Why is there no one inquiring this time?"

"The Goddess Statue District is almost in complete chaos now, with no support from higher powers, the Oversight Council can’t restrain other warriors either," the man frowned, "Although the competition officially disallows death quotas, in practice when powerful warriors clash, it’s hard to stop in time, making it impossible to avoid casualties. But such massive losses like this are unusual. I suspect there’s a new development among the upper echelons of the Goddess Statue District."

"A new developments?" the elder squinted at the man. Since he was standing behind the man, the slight shadow in his eyes went completely unnoticed. "How did you determine that, my lord?"

"Although there was such chaos last time, didn’t the people from the Temple step in to correct it?" The man named Alpha turned, smiling, "We shall just watch and see. It’s conceivable that someone deliberately created the chaos in the Goddess Statue District. Even if we are all seen as mere ants by the lofty gods, in the eyes of that superior, we haven’t reached such a level of insignificance yet. The Goddess Statue District is now at a critical time."

"What you say is true, Your Highness," the elder bowed his head.

The Land of the Midnight Sun

The boundless white ground and sky were completely dominated by three different colors.

The whole sky and earth, red, blue, and black, emitted an aura as tangible as the oppressive buzzing noise filling the air, which made almost all other sounds inaudible.

Xia Ziling struggled to move her body, only to find it completely unresponsive. She was completely rigid in place.

"How is this possible?! I’m also a B-ranked powerhouse, why is there such a huge disparity at the same level! How can I not move at all!" She unwillingly tried to ignite the potential energy inside her again, but the usually unstoppable force was now completely mute inside her, utterly blocked without a trace of spatial fluctuation responding to her.

She opened her mouth to speak, but couldn’t hear her own voice at all, drowned out by the loud buzzing, or perhaps her vocal cords didn’t make any sound.

Her vision was filled with blue, the air around her thick like liquid, making even moving her lips a tremendous effort.

Xia Ziling barely managed to turn her head to look at the other two people.

Gao Yue’s huge octopus had almost completely vanished into a faint shadow. The giant blue creature’s wings had struck a few times, creating powerful hurricanes mixed with an unknown force that easily shattered the equally massive octopus. This faint shadow was all that Gao Yue could gather again from his efforts.

And at this moment, Gao Yue himself was also standing completely rigid, unmoving, his face dull, not knowing whether he had fainted or what had happened.

The Snow Demon maintained a posture as if running backward, with one leg lifted in a flamingo-like stance, leaning forward as if she were performing ballet, which looked somewhat comical and ridiculous.

Xia Ziling felt like they were insects trapped in amber, surrounded by air and the mysterious blue aura like solidifying grease, completely at the mercy of others.

She slowly tilted her head back.

In the distant sky, a blood-red shadow was flapping massive red wings, constantly colliding with a figure standing atop a dragon-like monster.

Waves of force generated by the collisions diffused outward. Some turned into blood-red bats screaming as they returned to the red figure, while others transformed into blue ghostly faces returning to the blue figure, each surrounded by a giant cycle of continuously dissipating and rapidly returning energy.

In the midst of countless dark clouds, thunder serpents thunderously struck down towards the two figures. It was a three-way battle.

The three colored spaces trembled slightly with each of their relentless assaults, intermittently mixed with the furious roars of beasts.

Lin Fei strained to channel the mixed True Force inside him, which mixed with True Qi each time it burst forth, now carried an unprecedented level of cohesion.

Boom!!

The Black Demon Sword ferociously shattered a thunder column as thick as an arm, and countless blue thunderbolts turned into serpentine figures scattering in all directions.

"Not enough... not enough! Not enough!! Not enough!!!"

Excitement flared within Lin Fei like flames.

The Black Demon Sword completely vanished, transforming into a layer of blurry shadowy light that faintly emerged around him.

Countless blood-colored currents roared towards him, vaguely forming the face of a giant bat with sharp fangs dragging long blood-colored lines.

Lin Fei, with the Divine Beast beneath him, charged head-on with a flap of its wings.

Bang!!

The multitude of blood-colored auras exploded, and a black short sword flew out from the blood mist, directly aiming for Lin Fei. The blood-colored figure wielding the sword moved so fast, only a trail of light could be seen, as all the blood energy instantly reformed into wings behind him.

"Die." A faintly heard deep roar came through.

Lin Fei frantically waved his longsword, countless blue smoke escaping from him, engulfing him in blue flames, madly spreading outward as if greedily devouring everything around. Devilish shadows and monster figures distorted and emerged in the blue flames, then disappeared again, as if a tremendously powerful twisted demon was imprisoned within Lin Fei.

Lin Fei had no time to dodge. The opponent’s speed almost reached the level of Extreme Shadow, and in his normal state, he simply couldn’t defend against it.

Countless blue and silver lights briefly emerged in front of him.

"Star Curtain."

The defensive sword technique from the Star Shattering Sword Technique faced it head-on.

Not far from the two, the Thunder King hovered in the air, pointing a single hand towards the heavens.

"Thunderstorm!"

He spoke softly, but his voice clearly reached the ears of both people.

Clang!

Lin Fei was violently struck, as if hit head-on by a locomotive. A sweet and fishy taste rose to his throat.

The Divine Beast let out a mournful cry and was sent flying backwards.

On the other side, countless lightning bolts transformed into purple-blue diamond-shaped lights, shooting towards the blood-colored figure.

The other two clashed again in an instant.

Lin Fei licked the fresh blood at the corner of his mouth, steadied his feet, and the Divine Beast regained its balance.

"Such strong strength." It was the first time, the first time he had met a true equal in power.

Until now, the three of them still had strengths they had yet to reveal.

"Hmph!"

Within a cold snort, the blood-colored figure was surrounded by countless blue-purple electric crystals. These electric crystals melted and merged, instantly forming a massive crystal of lightning.

Almost instantly, countless cracks appeared on the surface of the crystal.

With a crack, like shattering glass, the crystal exploded into countless fragments. The blood-colored figure burst forth from within.

Some of the crystal fragments scattered, and faint cries of agony could be heard, likely from spectators accidentally injured.

Lin Fei’s eyes lit up with a deep blue luminescence, as clear and bright as blue crystal.

"Extreme Shadow!" He roared lowly, and his entire figure vanished in an instant.

Hiss!

The blood-colored figure, just as it burst forth, was instantly cut through the waist by a blur. A streak of blood light flew out. The figure grunted, exploding into countless blood-colored bats that scattered.

At the same time, Thunder King on the other side raised one hand, with countless bolts of lightning surging and writhing around him.

A silver sword tip shot out instantly.

Lin Fei’s figure slowly appeared in midair, with electric currents rolling and tumbling around him, like boiling water.

"What is this?"

Lin Fei hovered in midair, and the closer he got to Thunder King, the more he felt an invisible force constantly repelling him. The speed advantage of Extreme Shadow was largely negated and became visible to the naked eye.

"This is a static force field, useless, any speed-type opponent is meaningless to me, no matter how fast you are," Thunder King said with a smile. He grabbed with his right hand, and a large amount of lightning began to converge into his palm, quickly forming a massive axe with silver surface covered in fine black lines.

Immediately, these lines lit up, and blue-purple electricity flowed into them like water entering the cracks of the earth.

In a blink of an eye, his axe was entirely transformed into a blue-purple color.

Thunder King swung the massive axe in his hand gently.

True Force inside Lin Fei went wild. A strong sense of danger was directly heading towards him. Thunder King was making a serious move.

The massive axe moved slowly towards him, but countless force fields around Lin Fei tightly dragged on him, making it impossible for him to dodge.

"Goodbye," Thunder King said with a slight smile.

Bang!

A massive blue shadow instantly rushed forward, blocking in front of the huge axe.

Along with Lin Fei, the entire massive Divine Beast was brutally smashed into the ground below.

The originally jade-like ground instantly showed countless cracks, like a spider web.

Large amounts of dust and jade-colored rocks splattered about.

"Kotesar, you’re next!" Thunder King swung a massive axe violently in another direction.

A blood-colored shadow flew out from the void, it was Kotesar. Countless blood-colored energies gathered in his hands, forming two fast-spinning circular vortexes.

The two vortexes grew larger, and the pulling force they brought became stronger.

"Die!" the blood-colored figure roared.

The vortexes collided fiercely with the huge axe, both silently dispersing, but the axe disappeared a step earlier, leaving the residual force of the vortexes to strike Thunder King fiercely. .

Thunder King’s face paled, his figure instantly flying backward dozens of meters.

"Good! Very good! You actually hurt me..." Thunder King’s forehead lit up with a complex pattern emanating faint purple light.

Roar!

The Divine Beast flew back into the air. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to qidian.com to vote for recommendation tickets and monthly tickets, your support is my greatest motivation.)
