Chapter 231: Fight Between Golden Core Experts (1/2)

“I agree!” Canglin Sect’s Ling Feng agreed.

“Good! Since it’s like that, I also agree!” Tian Xuan glanced pensively at Cheng Yu and took a look at the other Golden Core experts before smiling.

“I agree!”

“I also agree!” The other two small sects glanced at each other mutually, raising their hands agreeing.

“…” Yun Xing stood at a side with an ugly complexion. It didn’t seem right to agree, yet wrong to not agree as well. If Kunlun didn’t have anyone to represent them, then no matter what, they would not be able to gain the soul tool. However, even if they agreed, the opponents were all Golden Core experts. Even if he were killed, he still wouldn’t be able to take it away. Furthermore, if no one was sent out to represent Kunlun, this would be a slap in the face for them.

“Alright then. Since it’s like that, the five of us will fight over this soul tool,” Wu Shang glanced at Yun Xing intentionally. His mouth curled up into a smile as he declared loudly.

“Slow down. We, Kunlun, also agree!” It was at this moment, a voice suddenly echoed out from a distant place in the forest. Then, a Golden Core expert appeared in front of everyone.

“Senior Brother Yun Tian, you came at the right time,” With Yun Tian appearing, Yun Xing was delighted, as if he had been relieved from a burden. The responsibility he was shouldering just now was too heavy. Not only did it include his own face, but also Kunlun’s. If this incident were to be spread out, the sect would definitely blame him. Now that Yun Tian had appeared, win or loss, it was no longer his problem.

“Hmph!” With a gloomy face, Yun Tian stared at Yun Xing with a cold harrumph. After that, he spoke to everyone. ”We, Kunlun, also agree to the battle. The winner gets the soul tool.”

“Haha! It turns out to be Senior Brother Yun Tian. Since your Kunlun also wants to come out and battle, I will naturally not have an objection,” Wu Shang smiled.

“How are we going to compete?” The Golden Core cultivator from Nine Black Sect questioned.

“If it was 1 vs 1, not only does it waste time, it will not going to be fair to those who compete first. No one would dare to guarantee than none of us will not aim at a certain person. Therefore, for fairness, I feel that we should have a battle royale,” Tian Xuan stated.

“Then if any one of you were to form an alliance, then wouldn’t one of us be dead?” Another small sect Golden Core cultivator lamented. He was most worried about the four great sects joining hands to deal with their two small sects first. Because everyone knew that the ten great sects were all xenophobic. They may seem to be contradicting each other, with lots of conflicts between them, but when facing foreign enemies, they would be united. If the four of them formed an alliance, his side only had two people. When the time came, they would certainly lose.

“Haha. This depends on you. If you are scared, you can choose to give up!” Wu Shang laughed.

“This…” This person hesitated. Taking a look at the soul tool in Cheng Yu’s hand, he saw the Nine Black Sect cultivator glancing at him. He hardened his heart, ”Fine! I agree!”

“Alright then. If anyone wishes to back out, you can step back. Otherwise, when we fight later, you can only admit defeat,” Wu Shang smiled. They signalled their own people. All of them understood, walking close to Cheng Yu. It might seem by accident, but everyone at the scene knew that this was to keep guard on Cheng Yu’s actions. Although Cheng Yu seemed to always agree with them, no one fully trusted him. There was still a need to do some preparation.

On the contrary, Cheng Yu was very calm, seemingly unconcerned about it, causing everyone to feel that Cheng Yu seemed to be so cooperative to the point of being a bit too cooperative. This was a soul tool, was he really willing to give it away so easily? Everyone was puzzled. However, the most important people were the central six fighters. The fight was about to happen, and everyone retreated around several hundred meters. Six Golden Core experts were going to battle, and this kind of fight made them filled with anticipation.

“Since it’s like that, we shall commence now!” Six of them took out their own weapon, forming a circle. Their expressions were heavy, guarding against the other five.

“Ha!” Wu Shang shouted, lifting his sword up, he slashed down the middle. Immediately, the spot he struck exploded, commencing the battle royale. Fighting against five others, this kind of battle royale was hardly seen. None of them helped each other, and none yielded to each other, killing the easiest one first.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!” Two Golden Core cultivators fighting against each other were already very fierce, but with six individuals turning berserk, the whole battlefield was filled with sword Qi splattering around, explosions, and trees tumbling down.

“What a good Yun Tian, to actually strike me so ruthlessly. Take my move, Mad Dragon Slash!” When Wu Shang was fighting against Ling Hai, Yun Tian suddenly sent a horizontal slash over, forcing Wu Shang away. Wu Shang was angered, and immediately, he retaliated with fierce attacks on Yun Tian. The six of them were all in Golden Core initial stage. However, Wu Shang and a few others were from the ten great sects. Usually in the great sects, once one advanced into Golden Core Realm, it would symbolize a genuine expert being born in the sect. Therefore, they would provide a low-grade spiritual tool to them as a reward.

However, the other two of were not so fortunate. Although they were already Golden Core experts, they were still using supreme-grade treasured tools. The difference between a supreme-grade treasured tool and spiritual tool was only a grade technically, but the difference was like a Foundation Establishment late stage to a Golden Core initial stage expert. Similarly, the difference was just a rank, but it was like heaven and earth. Regardless of how strong a Foundation Establishment cultivator was, he still wouldn’t be able to kill a Golden Core cultivator.

Just like Cheng Yu previously. He was similarly at Foundation Establishment late stage, but he was able to kill a few similar realm cultivators. This was impressive. But when he met a Golden Core expert, his only choice was to escape. Therefore, supreme-grade treasured tools and low-grade spiritual tools may have only a rank difference, but the might it was able to bring forth was totally different.

Canglin Sect’s Cang Ling Sword Art was agile and strong. Every move was very fast. Under Ling Feng’s continual attacks, Nine Black Sect’s Golden Core expert, Xuan Feng, was forced to reach his limits.
