Chapter 1221: Fierce Battle
On the semi-circular stone platform, Zhao Yuanlai's mouth was slightly agape in astonishment, while Zhou Xianyang took an uneasy glance at the five figures at the center of the platform, fearing that Daoist Master Chun Jun and the others would be able to see through Han Li's disguise.
The attention of Daoist Master Chun Jun and the others had indeed been drawn to the second platform by the commotion from Han Li's battle, and Immortal Envoy Feng Tian praised, "Those two are both quite impressive."
Lu Chuanfeng nodded in agreement with a smile on his face, while Daoist Master Chun Jun chimed in in agreement, "One is a Profound Immortal, while the other has mastered the laws of gravity. This is going to be a fiery matchup."
Even the snoozing Immortal Lord Heavenly Star had opened his eyes up wide to stare at Han Li and Chu Zhong, pondering if he should recruit their sects into the Sun Moon Alliance.@@@@
On the second platform, the black and white light gradually subsided to reveal the two combatants, but all of a sudden, both of them transformed into a pair of blurs.
The surrounding spectators looked on in awe as their eyes rapidly darted back and forth, desperately trying to track Han Li and Chu Zhong.
All of a sudden, a loud thump rang out as Han Li sprang up into the air, then swooped down from above before throwing a punch downward.
A pillar of white light erupted out of his fist before crashing down upon Chu Zhong down below, while the latter hunched himself over even further before launching himself up into the air.
A strange symbol appeared on his forehead, following which a layer of metallic, black light emerged over its surface, and he rushed headfirst toward the descending pillar of light, making no effort to take any evasive measures.
A string of resounding booms rang out incessantly as hundreds of profound acupoints lit up over Chu Zhong's body, and only then did Han Li come to realize that his opponent was also a Profound Immortal.
The pillar of white light between the two of them was rapidly shrinking, as was the distance between them, and it didn't take long before a fierce clash ensued.
The surrounding world's origin qi trembled violently as the combatants collided before separating again, sending an enormous cloud of dust rising up into the air.
Before the dust had a chance to settle, a black light barrier emerged to encompass the entire platform, and a black mountain that looked as if it had come straight out of an ink wash painting appeared high up in the sky.
Rays of black light began to cascade down upon the entire platform, and all of a sudden, the entire space had become incredibly heavy.
The dust that was still lingering in the air was instantly forced back down to the ground by the increased gravitational force, while Han Li also stumbled involuntarily under the immense pressure.
The section of the stone platform beneath his feet was instantly shattered and reduced to a pile of rubble, and a hint of schadenfreude appeared in Zhao Yuanlai's eyes upon seeing this as he remarked, "Not only is Chu Zhong a powerful Profound Immortal in his own right, he's also attained a formidable Creation Tier spirit domain. Looks like this is truly the end of the road for Fellow Daoist Chang."
"Let's not jump to premature conclusions, Mountain Master Zhao," Zhou Xianyang said.
He wasn't aware of the extent of Han Li's powers, but he knew that the latter was certainly no slouch. However, he was severely handicapped by the fact that he had to keep his own identity a secret, so there was definitely a chance that Chu Zhong could be too formidable an opponent for him to overcome.
At this point, the other battles were also beginning to reach their climaxes, eliciting a chorus of thunderous cheers from the spectators on the plaza, but the majority of the spectators still had their attention fixed on the second platform.
On the semi-circular stone platform, Zhou Xianyang was peering into the crater with an anxious expression.
"Do you still think I was jumping to a premature conclusion now, Sect Leader Zhou?" Zhao Yuanlai chuckled.
At the center of the platform, Lu Chuanfeng's brows were furrowed slightly in befuddlement as he asked, "Did any of you notice that the elder from the Prominent Mountain Sect seems to possess the bloodline of the true spirit Xuanwu in his body?"
"It doesn't seem to be very pure. Otherwise, he would've been able to withstand that attack," Immortal Lord Heavenly Star remarked in a wistful manner, while Daoist Master Chun Jun nodded in agreement.
As for Immortal Envoy Feng Tian, his attention had already drifted to other platforms.
In his eyes, the battle on the second platform had already been decided, so it required no further attention.
Right as he looked away to direct his gaze elsewhere, the ink wash mountain in the sky abruptly shrank down before plummeting rapidly from above, plunging straight into the giant crater down below.
The entire platform shuddered violently before falling still again, and Chu Zhong was standing atop the mountain summit in a victorious manner.
The spectators erupted into thunderous cheers once again, while the officiating elder from the Nine Origins Temple flew up into the air in preparation to announce Chu Zhong's victory.
However, right at this moment, the ink wash mountain that had sunken into the ground abruptly shuddered violently, and a burst of dazzling, white light spilled out from beneath it to illuminate the entire heavens.
Immediately thereafter, the entire plaza began to tremble, and the ink wash mountain slowly rose up bit by bit.
Everyone looked on with stunned expressions to discover Han Li rising up into the air with his palms pressed against the underside of the mountain, and the number of profound acupoints that had lit up over his body had exceeded one thousand.
Zhao Yuanlai's jaw instantly dropped to the ground in astonishment upon seeing this, while Zhou Xianyang put on a calm facade to mask his own bewilderment, doing his best to make it appear as if he had already anticipated this.
A wave of cheers louder than any of the previous ones rang out over the entire plaza, while Chu Zhong hurriedly crouched down to press his hands against the ink wash mountain, injecting his immortal spiritual power and law powers into it simultaneously.
The black light emanating from the mountain became even brighter than before, while its weight also drastically increased, allowing it to force its way back down again.
However, Han Li had already anticipated this, and he channeled his Titan Vajra Arts before throwing a punch to the left.
A burst of incredibly formidable starpower and bloodline power erupted out of his fist, piercing through space to create a vacuum passageway that was free from the interference of Chu Zhong's law powers.
Han Li darted straight through the passageway, then swiveled around before throwing a punch at Chu Zhong, and in the blink of an eye, he had arrived atop the mountain, then joined his middle and index fingers before thrusting them toward Chu Zhong.
