Chapter 2235 Lian Zhan's Phantom of Quasi-Emperor in the Bone Tempering Stage
(4, 0);
After a short rest, Lin Yue went to the next level to challenge. [sto. ＣＯＭ, read the chapter without error]
At the same time, the crowd watching on the ground also noticed the situation on Lin Yue's side and started a heated discussion.
"He actually surpassed the progress of a Quasi-Emperor in the Bone Tempering Stage and was the first to pass the challenge of the 121st floor...!"
"What's the big deal? Don't forget that even Quasi-Emperor Lingyun is no match for him. What's the point of passing the challenge on the 121st floor?"
"Hearing what you said, it seems to make some sense, but thinking that he can achieve this with only the cultivation level of a Quasi-Emperor in the Enlightenment Stage, it still feels unreal..."
However, all of this was unknown to the people in the emperor ranking. Those quasi-emperors in the awakening stage had been trapped by the phantom that appeared after the 100th level, and the progress of the quasi-emperors in the bone-tempering stage who were ahead of Lin Yue had also stagnated.
Although the enemies that appeared had not yet reached the upper limit of their strength, dozens of previous battles had already exhausted their physical strength, making it difficult for them to continue the high-intensity battle.
Among them, the dark-skinned Quasi-Emperor in the Bone Tempering Stage is the best, having defeated six phantoms at the same level as him and reached the 126th floor alone. One of the other Quasi-Emperors in the Bone Tempering Stage has been left behind by Lin Yue, and several others are in the process of challenging him.
…
Whoosh whoosh!
Lin Yue's figure retreated rapidly, dodging dozens of daggers flying towards him, then he raised his head and looked closely at the enemy in front of him.
The shadow in the challenge on the 122nd level was a middle-aged man with a gloomy temperament, and the dagger that just attacked Lin Yue came from his hand.
"Not bad..."
Seeing the way Lin Yue dodged, the middle-aged man sneered and said, then his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.
Lin Yue felt the sound of breaking air behind him, his eyes narrowed slightly, but he did not escape immediately. Instead, he calmly took out the Emperor Sword and held it in his hand.
The breath of the middle-aged man came from behind, and Lin Yue calmly turned around and blocked the Emperor Sword in front of him.
clang clang clang!
Several crisp metal clashing sounds were heard in succession, and Lin Yue successfully blocked the curved blade swung by the middle-aged man, without even the slightest change in his own aura.
Seeing this scene, the middle-aged man's expression finally changed. He silently recited the magic formula, and the aura on his body became stronger.
"You're still a long way from being able to get past me!"
The next moment, the middle-aged man's whole body was covered by the blurry shadow of the beast. His speed increased a lot in an instant. He threw away the magic weapon in his hand and pounced towards Lin Yue's position.
Looking at the middle-aged man whose behavior had completely become beastly, Lin Yue's expression did not change. Although the middle-aged man's strength had improved a lot to a certain extent, it was still within his expectations.
Hiss!
The Emperor Sword slashed down with powerful sword intent, firmly suppressing the middle-aged man's figure, and blood splattered on his body.
“Aa ...
The middle-aged man let out a cry of pain and could not help but step back. Even the shadow of the beast behind him became much fainter!
"snort!"
Seeing this scene, Lin Yue snorted coldly and showed no mercy.
Swoosh——
A flash of sword light and Lin Yue's figure attacked the middle-aged man, making his face suddenly become ugly.
"Don't even think about it..."
Before the middle-aged man could finish his words, Lin Yue had already arrived in front of him, raised his arm holding the Emperor Sword and slashed at him.
With powerful sword intent, the Emperor Sword directly slashed on his shoulder.
The animal shadow behind the middle-aged man only lasted for a moment before it flickered and disappeared as if a power outage...
Phew!
Without the protection of the beast's shadow, the Emperor's Sword easily broke through the middle-aged man's protective aura and directly cut him in half from top to bottom!
Under Lin Yue's gaze, the middle-aged man's figure began to blur and eventually disappeared, which meant that this level of challenge had been completed.
The scene in front of Lin Yue changed, and he appeared on the stone steps of the 122nd floor.
However, this time, there were no other Quasi-Emperors in the Bone Tempering Stage in Lin Yue's sight. But what he didn't know was that in the challenge he had just passed, there was another Quasi-Emperor in the Bone Tempering Stage fighting with the middle-aged man.
For practitioners participating in the Emperor Rank ranking, the space each person is in after entering the challenge is completely different, so if two people are in the challenge space of the same level, they will face a phantom alone and will not discover each other's existence.
“Now that I have reached the 122nd stone step, the only ones competing with me should be those Quasi-Emperors in the Bone Tempering Stage. Excluding Quasi-Emperor Lingyun and the guy I just met, I can already be ranked in the top five.” Lin Yue analyzed secretly in his mind.
There are a total of six quasi-emperors in the Bone Tempering Stage participating in the Emperor Ranking this time. However, after removing two of them, Lin Yue can already be firmly ranked in the top five, at least that is the case today.
As for the last day of the Emperor ranking, although the Quasi-Emperors of the Spirit Refining Stage are allowed to join, Lin Yue feels that not so many Quasi-Emperors of the Spirit Refining Stage will come to participate.
It seems that the special reward that Lu Yu wanted is already within his grasp, but Lin Yue has no intention of stopping there, because the higher the ranking, the more cultivation rewards he will get.
The highest level that can be obtained is twice the level of a Quasi-Emperor at the peak of the Awakening Stage. (5,0);
Lin Yue stood there for a moment. His condition had been completely restored by the reversal of time and space, and his mind had almost recovered, so he walked to the next level.
At the same time, the dark-skinned burly man appeared on the stone steps of the 127th floor, covered with bruises. He spat a mouthful of blood foam on the ground and breathed heavily.
He was already a little tired, and had just defeated a phantom that was as powerful as himself. Luck was also a factor in his victory.
The difficulty of each level of the Emperor ranking increases exponentially. After officially starting from the 100th level, the first 20 levels are all phantoms of quasi-emperors in the Awakening Stage, and the next 10 levels of phantoms have the strength of quasi-emperors in the Bone Tempering Stage. For example, the phantom that appears in the challenge of the 127th level must have reached the peak of the Bone Tempering Stage.
As for the stone steps behind the 130th floor, I'm afraid only a Quasi-Emperor in the Spirit Refining Stage would dare to go up and find out.
…
An hour later, when Lin Yue had just appeared on the stone steps after challenging the phantom on the 127th floor, the long-lost bell rang again.
When Lin Yue came to his senses, he found himself on the ground at the foot of the mountain.
It seems that today's imperial ranking has ended.
At the last moment, he successfully defeated a powerful phantom and passed the challenge of the 127th floor.
