In the Arena, only two figures remained amidst countless phantoms and continuous rumbling sounds. Others could not see clearly what was happening between them. Only the occasional splatter of Blood and the sounds of painful groans conveyed the intensity of the Battle.
Night Sky Bright's eyes were fixed intently on the Arena. Ever since Ren Pingsheng activated his Killing Heart, he had not blinked. He initially thought that once Zhuge Changtian's Divine Bloodline erupted, victory would come easily. However, he did not expect Ren Pingsheng to be so monstrous, possessing such terrifying depth.
"What exactly is this? Could it be some sort of Demon God Bloodline? But that shouldn't be possible; there shouldn't be any remnants of Demon God Bloodline on this Continent. Moreover, this is not the manifestation of a Demon God Bloodline; there is no mark of a demon god on his forehead." He kept pondering over Ren Pingsheng's situation.
This was too bizarre; something that could rival the Divine Bloodline was unheard of. There had always been rumors that only Divine Bloodlines could counter Divine Bloodlines, yet now an unknown force that could oppose Divine Bloodlines had emerged. How could this not shake him?
What struck him as even stranger was that Ren Pingsheng could cultivate both True Qi and Demonic Energy simultaneously, which was something he had never heard of before. Historically, True Qi and Demonic Energy were irreconcilable; it was impossible for both to exist within a single body. No one dared to attempt it because those who tried had all died. But what could explain the current situation?
"What exactly is Ren Pingsheng's background? Why is he so peculiar? Could he be that so-called Demon God Inheritor?" Night Sky Bright thought uncertainly, while also considering how to deal with Ren Pingsheng. He felt it necessary to take action against him; after all, this was no small matter.
Thinking about this made him somewhat restless, his thoughts fluctuating.
"It’s no surprise you don’t know; this should be the legendary Killing Heart." Suddenly, an aged voice rang in his ear.
"Ah, Lord Li?" He straightened his expression and respectfully spoke.
"I didn't expect someone to comprehend Killing Heart; it is said to be able to counter Divine Bloodline, and seeing it now confirms its existence."
"Lord Li? What is Killing Heart? I have never heard of it before."
"Killing Heart has only circulated among the demon race; it is a very mysterious thing. Once comprehended, it condenses a Heart within the body, known as Killing Heart. It is formed purely from condensed Killing Power, but condensing such a thing is extremely difficult. One's cultivation must not exceed Zongji Jing, and one must experience endless slaughter in the realm of Demonic Energy to have even a slight chance of comprehending it. This is simply impossible for those of us who cultivate True Qi."
"I see, so that means what Ren Pingsheng has comprehended is indeed Killing Heart."
"It is rumored that he was chased by the Evil Sect and fell into the Abyss of Demons, only to reappear in the Southern Region five years later. It seems this news is indeed true. One can only fear that those five years were spent in the Abyss of Demons, not only surviving but also, by chance, comprehending the heart of the Demon, allowing him to coexist with both True Qi and Demonic Energy."
The old man could not see anyone; only his aged voice faintly echoed, accurately guessing Ren Pingsheng's previous experiences.
"Abyss of Demons? He stayed there for five years? And came out alive? It's hard to imagine! It is said that even a royal-level martial artist cannot survive after entering the Abyss of Demons," Night Sky Bright said with a shocked expression.
"Alas, now that great generals have fallen, it is also the arrival of a Golden Era, with talents emerging one after another. Some gifted Monsters, those with deep fortunes, it is not impossible. However, this time in the Match, I fear Tian'er will lose."
"That can't be! Even if Killing Heart is powerful, Chang Tian possesses a Divine Bloodline that makes him invincible among peers; he shouldn't be lacking!"
"Because this person's Killing Heart has already reached the second stage, while Tian'er's Divine Bloodline is still a bit short of reaching the second stage."
"What? The Killing Heart has a second stage too? That's terrifying!" Night Sky Bright couldn't help but shout.
"Otherwise, how could it be said to contend with the Divine Bloodline? The second stage can enhance strength fourfold. Even without the second stage, Tian'er's chances of winning are slim. This Little One is too strange; it's hard to see through!"
"Lord Li, do you think he could be a Demon God Inheritor? You know there was a Demon God Heritage that appeared in the Abyss of Demons back then, and the timing seems about right?"
"Even if he is, there's nothing we can do. The methods of a Demon God are too terrifying; their Transmitter can only be left behind by Divine-Level Experts. Don't think about these things; it might cost you your life. What we need to do now is seize this last bit of time and strive for an early breakthrough."
At this point, the Battle in the Arena became even more intense; both fighters were covered in wounds. Their strengths were nearly equal; even though Ren Pingsheng had a powerful Sword Technique, overall he still fell slightly short. Once Zhuge Changtian got serious, he would fight desperately.
"Raging Wind Thirteen Kills." Ren Pingsheng suddenly retreated, and thirteen figures appeared as thirteen Sword Qi slashed down. Zhuge Changtian did not even glance at them and charged directly toward Ren Pingsheng against the Sword Qi. Dozens of sharp swords formed from sunlight swirled around him, blocking each Sword Qi one by one.
Then he waved his hand, shattering the last Sword Qi with his sharp swords and fiercely charged toward Ren Pingsheng.
“Heavenly Sword Style, shatter for me!” Ren Pingsheng swung the Windscar Sword, and a white Sword Qi instantly sliced through the sharp sword in front of him, turning defense into offense as he attacked Zhuge Changtian.
“Bang bang…” He waved his feather fan, raising several Light Barriers that blocked the Sword Qi, leaving only a series of intense collision sounds. As the smoke cleared, he remained completely unharmed.
“These two guys have gone mad, fighting so fiercely!” The talented individuals below watched with wide eyes, both amazed and filled with lingering fear. At this moment, they had long forgotten their previous conclusions about winning or losing and were anxiously waiting.
When they first learned of Zhuge Changtian's Divine Bloodline, they thought the Match was over. However, Ren Pingsheng's performance was equally Monstrous. Although they didn’t know what it was, they could clearly see that Ren Pingsheng’s strength was also growing at a terrifying rate, not inferior to Zhuge Changtian.
At this point, they had automatically excluded these two from their ranks, and no one foolishly considered them as opponents anymore, as it would only lead to unnecessary trouble or overestimating their abilities. Once these two unleashed their full power, they approached the strength of a King Level Boundary expert, far beyond what they could handle.
Whether in dissatisfaction or helplessness, this was an undeniable fact.
“Ren Pingsheng actually hid so deeply; I really didn’t know he was this terrifying. It turns out his strongest state is surrounded by Demonic Energy,” Situ Kong said with some resignation.
“To be able to contend against the Divine Bloodline, I don’t know what that thing is; it’s truly a mysterious entity,” Tang Sheng also said helplessly.
As for the spectators, they had long gone wild. They cheered along with the two, some shouting loudly, some flushed with excitement, and others jumping in support. In short, this battle brought the Rising Dragon Conference to its peak.
“Hmph, you actually made such a low-level mistake; this time I win,” Zhuge Changtian snorted coldly as he closed in on Ren Pingsheng, unleashing countless sharp swords in a terrifying display.
For some reason, after Ren Pingsheng unleashed the Wind and Cloud One Sword, although he had been injured, he managed to evade it. At this moment, however, Ren Pingsheng seemed momentarily stunned, allowing him to approach easily. This was the best opportunity; if he could concentrate on Ren Pingsheng, it would be his greatest chance to win.
As the roaring sounds faded away, amidst the dust, Ren Pingsheng stood straight with a transparent wound on his chest, blood spilling everywhere. It seemed he hadn’t completely blocked those sharp sword attacks and had been pierced through by one.
“How is it? How much strength do you have left now? After taking so many of my attacks, you probably can’t hold on for much longer!” Zhuge Changtian said with a smile on his face.
At this moment, he was covered in blood, his white robe had long since turned crimson, and there were numerous wounds on his chest. His left shoulder seemed to be immobile. However, despite this, his expression was relaxed, as if he was certain that Ren Pingsheng had no chance of winning.
"Is that so? It's a pity your Divine Bloodline hasn't reached the second stage; otherwise..."
"What? Can your strange state also reach the second stage?" He seemed overly excited, and his face twisted slightly.
"What does it matter whether it can or cannot? This Match is mine to win," Ren Pingsheng said with a faint smile. At that moment, the blood on the Arena had unknowingly gathered around Zhuge Changtian, tightly surrounding him, and even the blood from both of them continued to flow outward.
In the entire Tianwu Square, hardly anyone noticed this change; they were all focused on the intense Match between the two. The only exception was Night Sky Bright on the high platform, who remained silent.
"With such severe injuries, how can you still Battle me?" Zhuge Changtian asked incredulously.
"Not needed? It's already enough. Blood Fiend Summon, explode!" He smiled lightly and waved his left hand. Countless streams of blood flew up, forming a blood-colored dragon in an instant, which then charged towards Zhuge Changtian with a violent force that shocked everyone.
"Boom..." Zhuge Changtian barely managed to raise a few Light Barriers before being engulfed by the explosion of blood. In just a breath's time, a scream was heard as a figure flew out from the explosion.
Seemingly gravely injured, Zhuge Changtian fell outside the Arena. Losing this final match meant he also lost first place.
The final champion of the Rising Dragon Conference was Ren Pingsheng, standing on the stage. This genius from the Four Dark Horses era was someone no one had expected to achieve ultimate victory.
Although the victory was hard-won, he had indeed won. He defeated the top genius of Jiuzhou and stood at the pinnacle of the younger generation in Jiuzhou.
This day would be remembered by many; they would remember this genius from Eastern Domain Snow State, perhaps for a long time, perhaps passed down through generations.
