Chapter 298: 298. Fuxi

298. Chapter 298: Fuxi's Transformation! The First Special Reward! The Clash of Two Great Factions!

Facing the blood-red broadsword suddenly swung by the Asura Race powerhouse, Fuxi's expression was solemn, yet he did not show the slightest panic.

This first battle concerned not only his personal honor and future but also the dignity and status of the entire Human Race, so he had to win!

"Huolin'er, be careful!" Fuxi warned in a deep voice, while his internal Dharma power surged and faint spiritual energy fluctuations began to swirl around his body.

He did not choose to meet force with force; instead, he unfolded his figure, skillfully dodging the sharp blade aura, while simultaneously striking out with a backhand palm. A palm wind containing fierce power whistled out, colliding head-on with the Asura Race powerhouse.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, air waves rolled, the surrounding trees were shaken until they collapsed one after another, and dust filled the air.

Fuxi and the Asura Race powerhouse each retreated several steps, their gazes meeting, sparks flying.

"Hmph, you do have some ability!"

The Asura Race powerhouse sneered, clearly surprised by Fuxi's strength, but feeling more contempt and disdain, "However, with just this much strength, it is far from enough!"

Before the words had even faded, his figure surged out again, the blood-red broadsword transforming into a streak of blood-colored light, carving a brilliant arc through the air, aiming straight for Fuxi's head.

In this strike, he had clearly used his full strength, determined to kill Fuxi in one blow.

Yet, Fuxi did not show the slightest sign of fear.

In the blink of an eye, his figure moved nimbly, as if he had merged with heaven and earth, skillfully avoiding those fatal attacks time and again.

At the same time, he secretly pondered a countermeasure in his heart, searching for an opportunity to strike back.

"Huolin'er, get ready!" Fuxi shouted in a low voice, his eyes flashing with determination and resolve.

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of excitement flashed in Xiao Qilin's eyes. It leaped up suddenly, transforming into a stream of light, heading straight for the Asura Race powerhouse.

Its speed was so fast that it seemed to break through the constraints of space, appearing behind the Asura Race powerhouse in an instant.

"Roar!"

Xiao Qilin let out an angry roar, opening its mouth to spew a stream of scorching flames, heading straight for the Asura Race powerhouse.

Those flames contained the bloodline power of the Qilin Clan, with astonishing might, enough to burn mountains and boil seas.

Seeing this, the Asura Race powerhouse's expression changed slightly; he had not expected Fuxi's little mount to have such powerful assistance. He hurriedly swung his sword to block, but the flames were like maggots on a bone, tightly entwining his broadsword and continuously eroding his Dharma power and defenses.

"Damn it!"

The Asura Race powerhouse roared, feeling the Dharma power within his body consuming rapidly, and a sense of unprecedented crisis surged in his heart.

He felt that if he did not shake off the entanglement of these flames quickly, he might really fall here.

Thinking of this, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and he gritted his teeth, unexpectedly abandoning his broadsword and retreating violently, dodging Xiao Qilin's flame attack.

However, just as he thought he had escaped the crisis, Fuxi had already silently appeared before him.

A faint smile curled at the corner of Fuxi's mouth, and with a wave of his hand, characters surged from his fingertips, rapidly weaving into a complex great array in the air, trapping the Asura Race powerhouse firmly.

"What!"

The Asura Race powerhouse's expression changed drastically; he struggled desperately, only to find that the character array seemed to possess life, constantly shrinking and locking down the Dharma power and vital energy within his body.

"You... what kind of method is this?" the Asura Race powerhouse asked in terror.

Fuxi smiled faintly and said, "This is the crystallization of the Human Race's wisdom and the laws of heaven and earth—the Wen Dao Dharma Array. As a mere member of the Asura Race, how could you understand its mysteries?"

Before the words had finished, Fuxi brought his hands together, and the character array instantly erupted with dazzling light, a vast and righteous energy exploding to completely swallow the Asura Race powerhouse.

A moment later, the light dissipated, and the Asura Race powerhouse had vanished without a trace, leaving only a hint of a bloody scent lingering in the air.

"Hoo..."

Fuxi let out a light breath, his gaze flashing with a satisfied glow. He knew he had successfully passed the test of this stage, not only demonstrating his strength and wisdom but also winning honor and dignity for the Human Race.

"Huolin'er, well done!" Fuxi patted Xiao Qilin's head and laughed.

Xiao Qilin wagged its tail proudly, its eyes flashing with excitement.

It also felt that its coordination with Fuxi was becoming increasingly tacit, and they would surely be able to create more miracles in the future.

Inside the Yuanling Immortal Net, the residents of Leize City gathered together, their eyes fixed tightly on the competition footage on the screen, their hearts surging with excitement.

Among them were both white-haired elders and children who had yet to lose their childishness, but at this moment, their hearts were filled with reverence and pride for Fuxi.

"Look, that is our Lord Fuxi of Leize City!" an elder pointed at the screen, his voice trembling as he spoke, tears glistening in his eyes.

"Lord Fuxi is truly amazing!" a child shouted excitedly, his eyes full of worship for the hero.

At this time, Fuxi was still continuing forward.

As the competition deepened, the strength Fuxi displayed became increasingly powerful, and every move he made left people in awe.

He seemed like a wise man walking between heaven and earth, not only possessing profound cultivation but also having unique insights and applications for various cultivation paths such as Martial Dao and Literature Dao.

In one confrontation after another, Fuxi encountered powerhouses from different races and factions. There were Demon Kings of the Demon Race, warriors of the Wu Clan, and powerhouses from other mysterious races.

But no matter how powerful the opponent was, Fuxi could handle them with ease.

Facing the Demon Kings of the Demon Race, Fuxi used the methods of Literature Dao to weave mysterious great arrays, trapping the Demon Kings within and leaving them unable to move. The Demon Kings roared and struggled in the array, but could only watch helplessly as they were gradually weakened, eventually suffering defeat.

In the duel with the Wu Clan warriors, Fuxi displayed his powerful Martial Dao cultivation. His figure was like lightning, his fist wind like thunder, and every strike contained the power to destroy heaven and earth. Although the Wu Clan warriors were incomparably brave, they appeared powerless before Fuxi and eventually had to concede defeat.

And when facing those powerhouses from other races, Fuxi displayed his profound foundation and ability to adapt to circumstances.

He was like a bottomless pit, not only able to use various cultivation methods of the Human Race to resist but also capable of creating brand-new moves and tactics according to the characteristics and advantages of his opponents. This allowed him to gain the upper hand in every confrontation and easily suppress his opponents.

Every victory made the residents of Leize City cheer and jump for joy; they felt proud and honored for Fuxi. After other Human Race spectators noticed Fuxi's performance, they also cheered and shouted for him one after another. Fuxi represented not only the honor and dignity of Leize City but also the wisdom and strength of the entire Human Race.

And what made them even more excited was that after successive battles, Fuxi's cultivation was also rising layer by layer; originally only a Golden Immortal, he had unknowingly reached the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm!...

Nuwa looked at Fuxi's vigorous figure in the Yuanling Immortal Net, her heart filled with pride and gratification.

She watched as Fuxi defeated powerful enemies time and again, his cultivation constantly climbing, her eyes flashing with a dazzling light.

However, just as Fuxi passed through another Secret Realm and obtained a peculiar Seal, a sudden change occurred. The Seal was simple and unadorned, yet it faintly emitted a heart-palpitating aura, clearly extraordinary.

Nuwa examined it repeatedly but could not discern the grade of this Seal at all, leaving her puzzled while also causing her heart to stir.

"Lu Yun, this Seal... could it be one of the special rewards you mentioned?" Nuwa turned to look at Lu Yun, her tone carrying a hint of urgency and curiosity.

Lu Yun smiled slightly and nodded gently: "That's right, that Seal is indeed one of the three special rewards."

Upon hearing this, Nuwa felt even more excited in her heart.

After all, this Seal contained the mysteries and power to become a Quasi-Saint. Although Lu Yun did not explain exactly how it was done, since Lu Yun had said so, there would certainly be no problem! Fuxi's strength was originally at a disadvantage compared to the other contestants in this arena, but now that he had obtained this Seal, he could make up for his shortcomings. How many people in this competition could still pose a threat to him?

However, this excitement did not last long. She soon discovered that after Fuxi obtained the Seal, he had actually encountered a siege from many other contestants.

Those contestants were like sharks that had smelled blood, rushing toward Fuxi regardless of everything, attempting to seize that Seal.

"Why is this?" Nuwa frowned, her eyes filled with confusion and worry, "Why did Fuxi encounter such a fierce siege just after obtaining the Seal?"

Although this would inevitably be the result if the news spread, this situation was happening far too quickly! Houtu, however, had a flash of inspiration and spoke slowly from the side: "It must be because of the Yuanling Immortal Net!"

"Why is that?"

Nuwa, the sisters of Xihe, and the others around them could not help but cast questioning gazes toward her.

Houtu said: "Because the Yuanling Immortal Net connects the entire Great Desolation. Even during the one-year interval in the middle, the living beings of the Three Realms could freely enter the Yuanling Immortal Net to communicate and interact with each other. In this way, the news that there is a member of the Human Race among the contestants named Fuxi naturally spread to all sides!"

Hearing this, Nuwa suddenly realized and said: "You mean that because of this name, the contestants from all sides guessed that he is the reincarnation of my brother, and further speculated that he might receive special treatment in the competition, so everyone has been keeping a close eye on him?"

Houtu nodded and said: "Those contestants, in order to compete for this supreme opportunity and power, will naturally besiege Fuxi regardless of everything."

Nuwa's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.

But soon she returned to calm, because she felt that her brother would certainly be able to resolve everything.

The enemies surrounding him might bring some pressure to Fuxi, but at the same time, they were also an aid to help him grow faster!

In fact, just as she had expected, even when facing the collective siege of many contestants, Fuxi remained calm and unhurried, dealing with them in an orderly manner and taking Xiao Qilin away from the crowd's encirclement without panic.

On the arena, the situation became increasingly tense and fierce, and the news that Fuxi had obtained a special reward quickly reached the ears of more contestants.

Guangchengzi, the Antarctic Immortal, and other disciples of the Chan Sect felt uncontrollable excitement in their hearts after discovering that Fuxi had obtained a special reward.

"Immediately contact the other fellow disciples to act together!"

"Contact other contestants of the Heavenly Dao Faction to strike together!"

"We must seize that treasure!"

They knew well the preciousness and importance of this reward. Now that it had fallen into Fuxi's hands, it would be a huge boost for the Human Dao Faction, which was naturally not a good thing for them.

Thus, Guangchengzi quickly contacted all the contestants of the Chan Sect, and even went so far as to reach a temporary cooperation with contestants from the Jie Sect, the Western Sect, the Northern Underworld Sect, and others, jointly planning a siege operation against Fuxi.

They had only one goal, and that was to seize the Seal in Fuxi's hands and win this supreme opportunity for their own faction.

However, Fuxi seemed to possess the ability of foresight; facing the overwhelming enemies, he did not appear the slightest bit panicked.

Wisdom and calm light flickered in his eyes, and his figure shuttled through the jungle like a swimming dragon, skillfully avoiding the enemies' blockades and attacks time and time again, making Guangchengzi and the others furious.

But as time passed, more people from the Heavenly Dao Faction gathered, and they finally completely surrounded Fuxi and the others.

"Hmph, a mere Taiyi Golden Immortal, and you want to escape under our joint efforts?"

A Great Luo Golden Immortal powerhouse of the Western Sect sneered, brandishing the magic treasure in his hand, which turned into a sharp ray of light and struck straight at Fuxi.

However, Fuxi unfolded his figure and easily avoided the attack, while simultaneously striking back with a Literature Dao technique that turned into a brilliant light, shaking that Western Sect contestant until he retreated again and again.

"Huolin'er, follow me to break through!" Fuxi shouted in a deep voice, while simultaneously driving his magic power to charge fiercely in one direction together with Xiao Qilin.

Xiao Qilin's figure was agile, turning into a stream of light and following closely by Fuxi's side. Even though its body was already covered in wounds, its eyes still flickered with a firm light, as if no matter how many difficulties and obstacles lay ahead, they could not stop its footsteps.

After all, this was the hope for the revival of their Qilin Clan; even if he had to sacrifice himself, he absolutely could not let others take away the Seal in Fuxi's hands.

With the tacit cooperation between Fuxi and Xiao Qilin, they broke through the enemies' encirclement time and time again, fleeing toward more distant places.

However, the enemies did not give up; they bit onto Fuxi tightly like maggots on a tarsal bone.

Just at this moment, another group of contestants suddenly killed their way out. Among them were members of the Human Race and some races that were on good terms with the Human Race, all of them driving their Spiritual Treasures and unleashing Supernatural Powers to kill their way in from the periphery.

"Brother Fuxi, we have come to lend you a hand!"

"You lot are truly shameless, actually bullying the few with the many!"

"Isn't it just relying on having more people? The thing the Human Dao Faction lacks the least is people!"

"Kill!"

One by one, the contestants of the Human Dao Faction shouted loudly, while brandishing the magic treasures in their hands and engaging in a fierce battle with the enemies.

For a time, the battle situation became even more intense, directly evolving into a collective slaughter between the contestants of the Human Dao Faction and the Heavenly Dao Faction! (End of this chapter)
