Chapter 62: The Sword Finger Shook Zhang Mo, and the Activation Speed of the Dragon Pillar Increased

Boom!!

The loud boom attracted the attention of these elites.

On the dragon pillar not far away, Su Yi used his palm, executing the 5th move of Tiangang Sword Finger, Tiangang Sword Intent Finger, knocking the male cultivator down onto the platform.

Immediately, the elites on the platform went into an uproar.

The leader of the Heaven’s pride prodigies, Ling Jun, had a solemn expression on his face, as though he was looking at something impossible.

“Fellow Daoist Ling, do you know those two?”

At this moment, a graceful figure floated to Ling Jun’s side. She was dressed in a translucent robe, and her insolence clothes were like a soul-stealing treasure that captivated people’s hearts.

It made people feel that this woman was extremely alluring.

This graceful figure was the second-ranked Heaven’s Favorite from the Northern Region, Nangong Mingyue from the Inquisitive Heart Palace.

Ling Jun glanced at the person who had just arrived. The handsome man shook his head and said indifferently, “I’ve heard of the person who was knocked down on the platform. He’s from the Celestial Master’s Palace in the region, and his name is Zhang Mo. I’m afraid that his strength isn’t much weaker than all of you here.”

Ling Jun’s brows were tightly knitted together as he said something that shocked all the Heaven’s Favorites.

“What?!”

A few heaven’s favorites leaned over. Their faces were filled with disbelief. The person who was knocked down on the platform was actually not much weaker than them. Did that not mean that the person on the dragon pillar…

“Impossible! Ling Jun, I think you’re just spouting nonsense. The names of us Heaven’s Favorites have been well-known in the Central Plains for a long time. If that person is so powerful, how could he be unknown?”

Lan Xiaotian from the Fate Intercepting Pavilion looked at Ling Jun from the Abyss Valley with doubt in his eyes.

Although they were the eight Heaven’s Favorites, they were not on the same boat. If there was a chance, they would not mind removing Ling Jun from the top seat of the eight Heaven’s Favorites.

Moreover, the Fate Intercepting Pavilion behind Lan Xiaotian was based on information bartering, so he could take advantage of information to create many opportunities.

He had also heard of the Celestial Master’s Palace, but there was someone who was on par with them? He could not believe it. He thought that Ling Jun was just bluffing to scare them.

At the Supreme Dragon Pillar, Su Yi’s pressed down on the male cultivator who was lying on the ground as he walked towards him. He looked at him coldly and said, “now, do you still want to fight with me for that Supreme Dragon Pillar?”

Bang–

As his voice fell, Su Yi’s three fingers closed together. A huge sword qi with a condensed out of thin air. It was the seventh move, Tiangang Destruction Finger.

Seeing this, Zhang Mo, who was lying on the ground, let out a bitter laugh.

The cultivator in front of him had not used his killing move from the beginning. This guy was going easy on him all along.

He had thought that the first one to pass the trial would only be an unknown kid. He had not expected his strength to be so terrifying.

It seemed that another dark horse would take off in this relic trial.

Seeing Su Yi closing in step by step, the corner of Zhang Mo’s mouth curled into a faint smile.

He reached out his hand to wipe away the blood at the corner of his mouth and said indifferently, “you are very strong. At least among my peers, you are the strongest. So, it’s fine if I admit defeat.”

As he spoke, Zhang Mo took out a bead from the seal space.

It was the object of the trial, the Spirit of Lingxiao. With a flick of his finger, the bead flew to where Su Yi was. This Zhang Mo actually gave up on fighting for the Dragon Pillar.

Zhang Mo stood up and bowed slightly to Su Yi.

“Please forgive me for my previous offense. I am Zhang Mo from the Celestial Master’s Palace. May I know your name?”

Su Yi looked at him coldly, not knowing what he was going to do.

Previously, he had a look that said that he would fight to the death, but now, it was as if he had become a different person and was being polite.

This person was able to change his demeanor in such a short time. He did not know whether to use the Tiangang Destruction Finger. With a casual swing, the sword qi gathered in his hand was slashed onto the ground of the platform.

Boom–

With a loud bang, a sword mark half a foot deep could be seen on the smooth surface.

Since the person in front of him did not want to fight anymore and even handed over the spirit of Lingxiao, he, Su Yi, was not a ruthless person.

The other party had already surrendered, so what if they each took a step back?

“My name is Su Yi.”

Hearing this, Zhang Mo’s face broke into a faint smile. He jumped a few feet back and said with a smile, “fellow Daoist Su, it is not wise to make enemies with a genius like you. If you reach the Zhongtian region, you must come to my Celestial Master’s Palace as a guest.”

As he spoke, Zhang Mo took out a piece of jade and crushed it.

Boom–

An explosion sounded in the clear sky. Lightning passed through Zhang Mo’s body, and his figure disappeared into the secret realm.

Upon seeing this, Su Yi secretly praised Zhang Mo. Could This be another strange escape technique? However, there was only a small area on the platform, and one could see it at a glance.

Where could he escape to?

Su Yi did not know that the item Zhang Mo crushed was called the realm-breaking jade.

As long as one was in a secret realm or ruins, they could crush it and return to the great desolate region. It was an extremely rare treasure that could escape from a secret realm.

And after Zhang Mo handed over the Spirit of Lingxiao, it was obvious that these ruins were no longer a fortuitous opportunity for him. He might as well leave.

After the person left, he turned his gaze towards the center of the platform. He did not know when, but there were actually so many people here. From the looks of it, they were either young masters from wealthy families or peerless geniuses.

They all had arrogant looks on their faces.

However, he didn’t see Nie Ling’s figure among the crowd. He instantly frowned. Could it be that something had happened to that lass?

However, Su Yi only frowned for a moment.

From the perspective of the Heaven’s Favorites, Su Yi seemed to be staring at them, provoking them.

Su Yi did not notice this. He only saw that there were too many people and only wanted to find Nie Ling.

However, he did not see Nie Ling’s figure. He had tried communicating through the immortal destiny seal, and the other party did not reply either.

Presumably, she was still in the first trial.

Without thinking too much, he leaped up again and returned to the Supreme Dragon Pillar.

He saw Li Mengxi looking at him with a faint smile on a dragon pillar not far away. He paused for a moment. It seemed that she had been watching the show just now…

However, judging from the previous situation, he did not need her help.

Just as he returned to the platform at the top of the Dragon Pillar, the Spirit of Lingxiao in Su Yi’s hand suddenly changed.

It hovered in the air and turned into a seven-colored flame before fusing into the ball of flames that belonged to him in the dragon’s mouth.

As soon as the flames fused into the dragon pillar, the red light on the dragon pillar shone brightly.

The speed of the flame light that was extracted from the burning ground outside the platform increased by a lot.

At the same time, Su Yi also received a notification from the Dao voice.

[Notification: Supreme Dragon Pillar activation progress 6%/100%]

Looking at this strange phenomenon, those Heaven’s Favorites quickly understood the function of the platform dragon pillar, so they all moved, wanting to occupy a place on the dragon pillar.
