Chapter 382 - Qing Yuan Tiu Versus Dumu Ao

Lin Mu raised his brows at what Wu Hei had done and this was a new method of using spirit sense that he had seen. He wondered if he could use it too.

"You can also do it rather easily, but it will only work on cultivators that are much weaker than you or the ones that have a frail mentality. Those with a stronger will not be affected by the pressure of spirit sense." Xukong advised.

"Oh... I understand senior." Lin Mu replied in his mind.

"Though, this is kind of obsolete for you. The Nine Divine heart sutras that you have are much better at mental disturbances and stronger to affect too. You may as well practice them more." Xukong added.

Lin Mu then realized that what Senior Xukong was telling was quite right. The effect that Wu Hei’s spirit sense had shown was basically a lower version of his severing heart sutra. The spirit sense was only able to momentarily make them lose their focus and disturb them, but his severing heart sutra could fully send them in a daze.

’Wait a minute... can I...’ Lin Mu suddenly realized something.

He waited for the next round to start and prepared for it. There was a chance that he could be the very first person to be chosen, thus he would have to test it out later instead. Besides, in the third round, only four matches were going to happen and they were all going to involve contestants that were stronger.

But Lin Mu had not expected that the very first round would be involving the person who had just fought.

"The first contestant is Tianjin Shu who will be fighting... Nie Li!" The referee declared.

The face of Tianjin Shu instantly fell after hearing this, and he knew he had lost already. But still, he walked to the ring, as was the etiquette and formally forfeit the match.

"I forfeit!" He announced.

Nie Li nodded his head in acceptance, as he had already expected this. He was also secretly thankful as he was still a bit tired from his previous match and needed to recover.

"Nie Li is the winner!" The referee quickly declared.

Lin Mu didn’t even get to test out what he wanted to do, and the fight was over.

"Looks like I’ll have to wait for the next one." He muttered to himself.

The referee pulled out the next match up and announced it.

"Qing Yuan Tiu will be fighting... Dumu Ao!" The referee annoyed.

"Oh it is Qing Yuan Tiu, this will be a good fight." Someone from the audience said.

"Yeah, even Dumu Ao is a good contestant and his fight was good too." Another person added.

Lin Mu had seen this man Dumu Ao’s previous fights closely and knew that he had good skills. He was also an aristocrat that was additionally a cultivation sect disciple. He belonged to the Cloven Sea sect, which was actually a medium sized sect comparable to the Tri cauldron peony sect.

This sect existed in the western border of the Shuang Qian Kingdom and was active in the Black Dawn kingdom as well. Lin Mu had read up on this sect before and knew that they were specialized in emission type qi skills with water based one’s being their specialty.

Lin Mu watched as the man went down the seats along with Qing Yuan Tiu. But the thing that Lin Mu wondered was if he would even get to test out what he wanted in this fight. The balance of power was rather skewed on one side as both of the contestants use emission type qi skills, but Qing Yuan Tiu was much more powerful.

The two of them stood at the ring and took their places.

"Senior sister Qing Yuan Tiu, I would like to invite you to our sect. I believe both our sects could have a good conversation." Dumu Ao said while cupping his hands in greeting.

"I’m thankful for the invitation junior brother Dumu Ao. I’ll inform my elders about this invitation, but first we need to give a good show to the people." Qing Yuan Tiu said in a more genial tone.

"That would be great. I hope senior sister will guide me and teach me today." Dumu Ao said before taking a defensive stance.

He had already known that there was no chance of him winning this round as he was heavily outmatched. Still, he had his honor that he couldn’t afford to lose. His clan was not that high up in the aristocratic circles, and all he had today was gained through his own hard work and the cloven sea sect.

"FIGHT!" The referee ordered.

~Shing~

~Crack~

Qing Yuan Tiu did the same thing she had done before, and six metal rods appeared from her legs and pierced into the stone floor. But Dumu Ao was ready for this and acted differently than he had shown. Instead of defending like he was presented before, his hands glowed in a blue hue before he swung them at Qing Yuan Tiu.

~kua~

The blue hue turned into an illusory whip that seemed as if it was made out of water, yet it was not. Lin Mu was observing it clearly and sensed that the method of using this technique was rather complex compared to the basic fire ball technique.

He had thought that it also used basic attributes qi and converts it to elemental qi to execute the technique, but this one seemed to have more complex qi circuits. He would have to directly probe Dumu Ao body to be able to see it clearly.

The whip swished ahead and was about to touch Qing Yuan Tiu when suddenly she swirled her hands.

~Whirl~

A wave of greening energy was released from her hands and spun around her body blocking the blue spirit qi whip.

~Thuck~

It was as if someone had slapped a plate filled with water with their hands. A few ripples appeared on the green wind barred before the whip dissipated.
