Even though they were official saints, they dared not talk back. A natural instinct suppressed them. Beings below the saints could not muster any resistance against them.
Li Changzhou declared loudly, "Please rest assured, everyone. In a one-on-one fight, I will never use a 'false victory.' If I break this oath, I, the King of Black Mist, will leave the Holy City on the spot and give up the struggle for the Holy Throne!"
The crowd's expressions grew even more grim.
This kid really wants to be the 'winner'!
By not using a "false victory" in a one-on-one fight, one clearly disregards everyone present and believes they are certain of victory.
"Alright." The God-King who had merged with [Heavenly Will - Void] stepped forward, his aura ethereal and almost imperceptible. "There are twelve Saintly positions. Even if the King of Black Mist occupies four, there are still eight left. If you're truly capable, why are you afraid of not being able to sit on them?"
The true dragon sneered: "Ants can only gather in groups."
The Corpse Gene didn't say much, only stating, "The passage to the second temple hasn't appeared yet. It seems someone must enter the side hall—is there anyone willing to take over the side hall and become a Quasi-Saint?"
Everyone's thoughts immediately changed.
There are quite a few powerful figures eyeing the Quasi-Saint.
Even for the first temple's sub-saint position, most powerful individuals would not be interested in these two positions because they were unwilling to give up their sainthood too early.
boom!
A fierce battle erupted instantly, with powerful figures vying for control of both side halls.
Most of the powerful individuals remained still, standing in place and waiting.
Soon, thousands of people died on the spot. The third elder of the Divine Will Great Wall and a player, with the support of their respective forces, managed to win a hard-fought victory and enter the secondary hall.
"The passage has appeared!"
The wall directly opposite the entrance to the First Temple vanished without a sound, transforming into the exit.
"Walk!"
Instead of taking action, everyone rushed towards the exit.
Li Changzhou, Yang Qinglan, and Yaochi didn't rush to leave. The three of them were now the target of everyone's attention, and all the powerful figures were on guard against them.
The "Fragrant Leaf Crown" flew out and hovered over the corpses, absorbing the remaining laws and Dao essence.
Yaochi looked relaxed and smiled, "Even if we don't manage to snatch a single sainthood after Qianxia becomes a saint, we'll have enough safe time to cultivate on our own."
"We must also be careful," Yang Qinglan said. "We cannot allow two people from the same faction to become saints."
"No need to rush," Li Changzhou said with a smile. "We don't need to fight for it. Let them fight over it. Whoever dares to approach the Holy Throne, we will help everyone kill him. Once most of them are dead, our opportunity will come."
The "fragrant leaf crown" flew back and landed on Li Changzhou's head.
The three of them flew through the air and rushed towards the exit. Li Changzhou held the "Wisdom Pearl" on the divine altar between his eyebrows and comprehended what he had gained from the "Fragrant Leaf Crown".
Flying out of the exit, all that's left is emptiness.
In the void, using the stars as a path, head left to reach the second temple.
These paving stars were fine when they approached the First Temple, but they were shattered midway through, causing renewed conflict, and all the powerful figures took action.
The three followed at a leisurely pace, waiting to see who would rush to the front before joining the others in attacking.
These powerful figures naturally guessed his plan, but they were helpless to stop him.
Facing the wary gazes of the crowd, Li Changzhou laughed heartily: "Don't worry, everyone, I won't compete for the second Saintly position!"
With that, he unleashed a [Annihilation Divine Light], blasting the Star Monkey charging in front of him to smithereens.
This monkey was born from the essence of the stars. As long as the stars do not perish, it will live forever and be born high above all.
He was utterly defeated by Li Changzhou, which directly enraged him.
"King of Black Mist, come here! I'll fight you one-on-one!" Star Monkey brandished his golden mace and charged straight from the front to the back.
The golden mace swept away everything in its path, each strike shaking the heavens and earth, annihilating countless powerful figures.
He approached Li Changzhou.
"Insects, die!"
"Thump!" The golden mace struck down with boundless power, advancing unstoppable.
Li Changzhou was not to be outdone. He unleashed a furious attack with his bronze spear, unleashing an endless burst of brilliant divine energy, like a raging ocean.
The two quickly became entangled, like two beams of light.
Li Changzhou quickly realized that this monkey, though seemingly hot-tempered, was actually very cunning. As the two fought, they fought their way to the front of the group, a position where they could make a final stand.
Not only that, but while fighting, they also occasionally ambushed people nearby.
No one could stop the two of them working together; that's right, Li Changzhou also helped him launch a sneak attack.
It's not entirely true that the man and the monkey are putting on an act; if one of them falls into a disadvantageous position, the other will definitely launch a sudden attack.
It wasn't just them; after the battle at the First Temple, everyone had vaguely reached a tacit understanding—not to fight to the death easily, but to take advantage of whoever was at a disadvantage.
Sometimes they will suddenly attack a single person.
Li Changzhou, Xinghou, Shigu Gene, Shenwang, and others have all been ganged up on and participated in ganging up on others.
It's very bloody; powerful people are falling at any moment.
In the end, the fighting terrified some of the stronger fighters, who then retreated on their own initiative.
Then, almost all of these powerful individuals were wiped out, and the people in front of them suddenly attacked them.
"Stop! I'm quitting!" a white dragon shouted.
Bang!
The God King unleashed his Great Spatial Palm, blasting the White Dragon to pieces.
Who knows whether these powerful figures who "withdrew" are truly withdrawing, or simply choosing to retreat and wait for a crucial moment to launch an attack?
"The only way out is death!" The skeletal gene is also slaughtering.
His army of bones was also being slaughtered; no one in the war wanted to see an army of bones.
Finally, they stormed into the temple once again.
Instantly, everyone went crazy and started fighting desperately.
Every individual is at risk of an accident at any moment; the battles are incredibly fierce, with blood splattering and bones breaking constantly, and even divine will leaving the body.
"kill!!"
