Chapter 703: Fight for the Championship

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The struggle for top three was incredibly heart-wrenching. They all knew the final war at the tenth island would be intense and would declare the championship.

As the transportation platform was activated, three figures shot onto the tenth island. During the transportation, there was yet again a clear voice sounding next to their ears.

“Young men, congratulations to all of you for having entered the islands of the fourth level. Although this tenth island is the first island of the fourth level, its degree of danger far surpasses the previous ones. Inside this island, you must be extra careful and must not force yourself. If you are met with unrealistic danger, you must not hesitate to activate the transportation jade plate from your hands. Good luck to you all! Please remember, this pass is not just a challenge to survival. The reward for the champion are two Supreme Dao Fruits... One of them comes from this island. Whoever gets the Supreme Dao Fruit first, that person will be the victor! You could get out of the island ahead of time! Of course, it will not be easy to get that Supreme Dao Fruit. It’s next to the divine beast and you must be well prepared mentally. Of course, if none of you can get the Supreme Dao Fruit, we will follow the previous rules and whoever stays the longest on the island, that person will be the victor!”

This voice seemed to either be a warning or advice.

This would not be important. The important thing was in this island, the three of them would be facing a divine beast! A divine beast that could tear them into pieces at anytime!

Indeed, this host organization had spent all their wits. Clearly, they did not wish to see the competitors still using fleeing tactics. Instead, they wanted to encourage them to take the initiative to attack and seize the Supreme Dao Fruit.

In this island, the one that got out the last would not really be the champion. It was because winning the Supreme Dao Fruit was the priority of the championship!

This way, the struggle for the championship would appear even more interesting.

They could take the initiative to seize the Supreme Dao Fruit, which would be the most risky and the most attractive choice, or one could drag it out with their opponents and see who would be the luckiest and get disqualified last. However for such a choice, one must consider the situation if an opponent were to acquire the Supreme Dao Fruit ahead of time and win the championship. It would be a smaller risk, yet one must see the face of the one that won.

Or, one could take the initiative to strike and not to have the goal of seizing the Supreme Dao Fruit, but with the goal of forcing the other opponents out. With the disqualification of opponents, one could also win the championship!

For these three choices, through general consideration, the third one would be the most appropriate! One would not need to see the face of the other people and would not need to take the great risk of taking the fruit from under the beast’s nose.

Qin Wushuang’s sense of urgency was swept away. Ever since he had achieved a comprehension on the last day at the ninth island, Qin Wushuang was clearly in a much more relaxed mood.

He no longer looked at the rewards of the competition with as great of importance.

Divine beast? As Qin Wushuang thought inwardly, he revealed a joyful smile from the corner of his mouth. Then let’s experience the charm of the divine beast!

Qin Wushuang had dealt with a divine beast before. Previously at the Ten Thousand Flower Valley, Qin Wushuang had also experienced a divine beast at the Eighth Transformation Supreme Dao Stage. He had not been taken out by the divine beast even after spending so much time at the Ten Thousand Flower Valley.

Of course, there were reasons for this. At the Ten Thousand Flower Valley, the sheer numbers of the martial artists had attracted the attention of the divine beast. Secondly, Qin Wushuang had collected the spiritual perception of that Nine Change Celestial Tiger with his Observant Finger Jade Plate. He was able to lock the position of the divine beast and keep a safe distance.

Yet at this tenth island, they were not told how many divine beasts were on the island. Additionally, because no one had approached the territory of the divine beast, the Observant Finger Jade Plate would not be able to collect any residual presence of the divine beast. Because of this, Qin Wushuang could not lock onto the position of the divine beast.

Therefore, to survive within this divine beast island, he must first collect the presence of the divine beast. With that, he could make an accurate judgment.

The instant they dropped onto this divine beast island, Qin Wushuang had sensed a completely different presence. Indeed, this island was completely different than the previous nine islands. It was less quiet with a few more traces of eeriness and lingering terror. The powerful murderous presence had made Qin Wushuang, a combat warrior that was used to killing, feel the presence of desperate fear.

“It seems that inside this island, it will not be easy to survive for two months!”

The three islands of this fourth level had a time limit of sixty days. Qin Wushuang felt that the final ranking would most likely occur inside this tenth island.

It would be extremely difficult to finish surviving two months on this tenth island.

Per the old rules, Qin Wushuang took out the Observant Finger Jade Plate and started to lock onto the position of Ling Tianzhi and Jiang Kui. This island was incredibly big. The position of the three people were really far apart.

“Indeed, this Jiang Kui was cunning. He was not inside the island, instead he went towards the water area of the Illusion Heavenly Lake. It seems this Jiang Kui is going to use up his advantage of being a martial artist of the Endless Eastern Sea to survive in the water area. This guy seems to be full of confidence.”

Of course, Qin Wushuang would not let Jiang Kui be so free at ease. He urged the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings and started to dash towards the direction where Jiang Kui had concealed himself.

At this divine beast island, concealing oneself to be passive would most likely not be a good method. At least, Qin Wushuang did not plan to be passive. Regardless of the outcome, he decided to grasp the initiative on his hand.

After two hours. Qin Wushuang was already approaching the water area where Jiang Kui was at. With a long whistle, he roared, “Jiang Kui, do you think you can escape the attack of the divine beast by hiding underneath the water?”

Initially, Jiang Kui was about thirty metres below the water. Yet, upon hearing the roar of Qin Wushuang, he still felt surges of movement. Feeling incredibly infuriated, he thought, “This Qin Wushuang, I am not going to attack you, but still you come for me?”

At this moment, the voice of Ling Tianzhi sounded nearby, “Ha ha ha, Qin Wushuang, Jiang Kui, you guys do know how to pick places! I will join the show!”

Qin Wushuang was moved inwardly, “He’s also here?”

Ling Tianzhi’s laughter sounded again. “I am sorry to tell you guys, I have already startled the divine beast cave dwelling along the way. Perhaps, the divine beast is already awakened. And I did not conceal my presence along the way. If the spiritual perception of the divine beast is keen enough, it will surely chase me here!”

As Ling Tianzhi was chased by Qin Wushuang, despite feeling angered, he was also thinking clearly and rationally. To win the championship, the opponent would not just be Qin Wushuang, there would also be Jiang Kui.

Jiang Kui had shrunk inside the water quietly and Ling Tianzhi had predicted this part. Therefore, he had shared the same thought as Qin Wushuang. He must not let Jiang Kui stay inside the water and be passive.

At this moment, a burst of giant billow dashed out from the water. A gigantic wall of water shot up to the sky. Jiang Kui transformed into his true form and growled, “Darn you human martial artists, if you two want to fight, go fight elsewhere. Do not disturb me!”

Qin Wushuang laughed. “Jiang Kui, such a carefree thing? Who doesn’t want to fight? You want to watch the fire from the shore and watch the two of us fight to death while you sit and harvest the rewards?”

Jiang Kui said with a cold sneer, “I would not object if you had the skill to fight with me.”

Ling Tianzhi’s carefree figure also flew over from the far side. He shouted, “Jiang Kui, you have a good calculation, but you think we are out of options when you are inside the water?”

Ling Tianzhi called with the flag from his hand and his entire body transformed into a ball of translucent light. He shot towards the direction of Jiang Kui at a rapid speed.

Now, Jiang Kui was in his dragon form. Urging his dragon scale, he blossomed a powerful yellow presence from his entire body. The powerful dragon presence had been activated instantly. When he opened his mouth, a burst of yellow dragon Qi shot at the ball of light transformed by Ling Tianzhi with banishing teeth and fangs.

Before the dragon Qi had shot the target, that ball of light from Ling Tianzhi had suddenly dispersed and transformed into starry lights that filled the sky. No knowing when it had happened, Ling Tianzhi had already floated next to Jiang Kui’s giant water pillar. Twisting a combat sword with his entire body, he waved his arm and extended it out. “Open!”

The blade directly slashed at the giant water pillar.

When the water pillar was cut by this blade, instantly all the water was destroyed as it dispersed desperately and shot upwards with a splash.

Jiang Kui’s dragon body had scuttled into the middle of the sky. He glared at Ling Tianzhi as if he was shooting flames out from his eyes. Sweeping with his sharp dragon claws, dragon lights clawed down with a power that could swallow the earth and the sky.

Ling Tianzhi lashed out continuous sword attacks. Like a fish splashing in the water, it brought forth surges of white waves and white lights to collide with the dragon lights.

The surges of power clashed and let out a miserable tremble. Like the clashing of metal, it sounded incredibly heart-wrenching.

At this time, in the direction where Ling Tianzhi had scrambled out, a powerful and earth-shaking roar sounded. With this roar, the whole island seemed to tremble. The rumbling sound resembled the disposition of thunder.

“The divine beast is here!” This thought flashed in the mind of these three warriors at the same time.

Jiang Kui shouted, “I will not play with you, I am diving.”

Although Jiang Kui was powerful, before the divine beast, he did not have the capital to be arrogant. He disregarded Ling Tianzhi and was about to scramble to the underside of the water.

Now, Qin Wushuang was already beneath him. Upon seeing Jiang Kui running away, he shouted, “Swallowing Sky, go stop him!”

As the Swallowing Sky Lion Dragon received this order, he dropped next to the water area as his body shot forward like an arrow. He opened his bloody mouth widely, Swallowing Divine Skill!

Roar!

The powerful absorption technique went towards the direction where Jiang Kui had dropped down.

Jiang Kui was greatly astonished. “Darn it!”

Under this surprising situation, he was almost swallowed by the Swallowing Sky Lion Dragon. He urged all the dragon presence from his entire body and had it to clash with the dragon presence of the Swallowing Sky Lion Dragon. He was not willing to face him head on, so he quickly shot to the side. Intending to get around this Swallowing Sky Lion Dragon, he cried out, “Darn it, we are both dragons, why target me?”

He had no clue that Qin Wushuang had summoned this Swallowing Sky Lion Dragon. He thought it was a native spiritual beast on this island.

The speed of the Swallowing Sky Lion Dragon was strangely fast as he shot Jiang Kui to the side. His body had transformed into meteoric lights and moved horizontally with the speed of a tidal wave.

Jiang Kui was not willing to get entangled by this beast. Just when he was about to fall into the water, suddenly a gigantic long whip slashed up. Instantly, a dozen giant waves kept slashing at him.

Boom, boom, boom!

The continuous whip attacks and its fast speed caused Jiang Kui to have no energy to react. He could only retreat nonstop and could not but help to dash to the sky.

Jiang Kui was flustered and exasperated, in fact, his anger inside had reached its peak as he encountered these continuous attacks. Yet, the oppression of the divine beast was also pressing in his eyes!
