Chapter 83: A Spectacular Finale and a Grand Celebration!
The dark purple energy threads were deeply embedded in Liu Kunsheng's spirit body. The feeling was not just a physical constraint, but more like countless cold and vicious steel needles were instantly piercing into the core of his spirit body!
The intense, soul-piercing pain made him let out a miserable howl that mixed with Deng Youfu's voice!
But the excruciating pain came quickly and went quickly.
Immediately afterwards, an even more terrifying sense of loss of control swept over Liu Kunsheng!
He felt a powerful and strange force of "extraction" coming from the threads that pierced his spirit body, like countless invisible hands, gripping his spiritual core and beginning to pull him out of Deng Youfu's body little by little!
"Ugh—you bastard!!"
Liu Kunsheng was filled with shock and anger. His enormous snake body twisted and struggled wildly in the black mist, trying to gather strength to resist the force of separation.
He could feel Deng Youfu's body rapidly becoming "empty," and his connection with this familiar body was being forcibly severed!
Meanwhile, the Minister of Magic on the sidelines had his hands with fingers spread out and slightly bent.
From the tip of each fingertip, countless energy threads, thinner and almost transparent than the threads wrapped around Liu Kunsheng, extended out!
These fine threads, like natural extensions of his limbs, precisely connect to and manipulate every "ghost puppet thread" binding Liu Kunsheng.
His face was slightly pale, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, clearly indicating that controlling this level of power had taken a great toll on him.
"Hey!"
The Minister of Magic's eyes narrowed, and he uttered a soft shout!
He clenched his fists and pulled downwards with a sudden jerk!
His movements were clean and efficient, exuding an undeniable sense of control!
*Sizzle!*
It was as if the sound of cloth being forcibly torn resounded on the spiritual level!
Under the horrified gazes of all the spectators, an extremely shocking scene unfolded!
A gigantic, terrifying phantom of a serpent, tens of meters long and several meters wide, its body coiled with countless dark purple threads, was forcibly expelled from the unconscious body of Deng Youfu—
It was "pulled" out!
The scene was incredibly bizarre!
From the tiny human body, such a colossal creature that blots out the sky was pulled out!
The giant serpent phantom twisted and writhed in mid-air in agony, its dark demonic energy spreading like dissipated ink, yet it was firmly locked, pierced, and lifted by those glowing purple threads!
Deng Youfu's body went limp and he fell to the ground, losing all consciousness.
"My God!!"
"What—what is that?! A snake?! A huge snake spirit!"
"He pulled the immortal's true form directly out of the human body?!"
"This—how is this possible?!"
The audience erupted in chaos! Gasps and gasps filled the air!
Everyone was completely stunned by this scene that defied all comprehension!
Even the most knowledgeable and experienced elders were filled with disbelief.
This goes beyond the scope of ordinary "spirit possession" or "spirit binding," and is more like a forced stripping and manipulation of the essence of the spirit!
In a corner of the VIP section, the usually lazy Taoist priest Wang Ye had also abandoned his indifferent demeanor, and a few beads of cold sweat unconsciously slid down his forehead.
He subconsciously wiped it, muttering under his breath, "Sigh—this young benefactor really knows how to have fun—"
"Their methods are more frightening than the last—luckily, they're with that unfortunate Zhang Chulan, otherwise my peaceful days would really be over. Just thinking about it is troublesome—"
On the other side, Zhang Lingyu's cold eyes were fixed on the huge snake shadow in the arena, which was bound by silk threads and slowly pulled from mid-air to the ground, as well as the slightly panting boy on the sidelines.
He paused for a moment, then spoke softly to the several astonished Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain beside him: "This Benefactor Lu, although he appears young and his cultivation may still require time to refine—but in terms of the strangeness of his methods, the exquisiteness of his spells, his composure in battle, and even his seasoned adaptability in actual combat—"
He paused, his tone carrying a hint of heartfelt emotion.
"I'm afraid that in the current world of extraordinary people, there are very few who can compare with him. Even when I was his age, I was far less outstanding than him."
After he finished speaking, a relieved smile suddenly appeared on his lips. The smile was clean, carrying pure appreciation and a hint of envy, but without any jealousy or negative emotions.
"Hehe, no wonder Master is so close to him. I suppose it's because my own cultivation is not enough to put Master at ease."
His sudden sense of relief and self-reflection left the older Taoist priest beside him somewhat bewildered.
One of them couldn't help but whisper, "Uncle-Master Lingyu, aren't you giving him too much credit?"
"No matter how powerful or bizarre his magic is, his own life force and cultivation level are what they are."
"If I were to face you at your peak, having unleashed that move, as long as I don't give him a chance to create distance and keep attacking at close range, wouldn't the outcome be entirely under my control?"
"After all, the aura he exudes isn't particularly strong. And—"
The Taoist priest glanced at the proudly standing Hu Tianbiao puppet in the arena and added, "His immortal helper has shown signs of possessing a physical body this time, so he probably won't be able to play in the next match. The rules won't allow it."
Just as the group was discussing in hushed tones, the outcome of the match was already decided.
The enormous Liu Kun's spirit body was pierced and bound by countless purple threads, like a giant marionette being manipulated by the Minister of Magic, and slowly pulled down from mid-air, finally with a soft "boom".
The enormous snake body was forcibly pressed onto the competition field, unable to move.
"Heh heh, you stinking worm, how about it? Are you convinced now?"
Hu Tianbiao strode arrogantly to the bound giant snake's head, his crimson fox face filled with arrogance and schadenfreude.
He did not attack again, because the outcome was already decided.
"Hmph! What's it to you? You lapdog!"
Liu Kunsheng's enormous snake eyes blazed with fury, his voice filled with resentment and unwillingness.
He was not entirely without the power to resist. If he risked depleting his own essence and unleashing all his strength, he was confident that he could forcibly break these strange threads!
But this isn't a life-or-death battle; it's not worth risking your life for a competition!
Moreover, he was burning with rage. If it weren't for this damned venue, Deng Youfu's insufficient cultivation limiting his physical strength, and that troublesome Hu Tianbiao constantly harassing him, he was confident that he could instantly kill that little brat hiding behind and shooting arrows!
So even though he lost, he was unwilling to accept it, both in his heart and in his words!
Hu Tianbiao naturally saw through his thoughts, grinned, revealing sharp teeth, and continued to mock, "Hmph, still not convinced?"
"You're being stubborn, aren't you?"
"If this little guy hadn't held back and not used those really deadly things, you old serpent would have been roasted on a hot plate long ago! I'd even scoop out your gall bladder and soak it in alcohol for you to drink!"
His tone shifted, becoming a mix of self-deprecation and wistfulness.
"Don't even mention you, even if I risked my life, he would have me completely under his control from beginning to end, and I wouldn't be able to resist in the slightest."
Hearing Hu Tianbiao's sarcastic yet incredibly earnest remark, Liu Kunsheng's enormous snake body suddenly froze!
For the first time, his vertical pupils, burning with anger, held an incredibly solemn and scrutinizing gaze that passed over Hu Tianbiao and stared intently at the somewhat tired boy behind him who was trying to catch his breath.
"You old geezer—you're not kidding me, are you?"
Liu Kunsheng's voice was filled with disbelief, and the huge snake head swayed slightly.
"Just because of—this little brat?"
He even momentarily forgot that he was still firmly locked to the ground by the little brat's magic.
"hehe!"
Hu Tianbiao chuckled and glanced at Liu Kunsheng with his crimson fox eyes.
"There are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding! You old mudfish, hiding in your broken mountaintop and ruling the world, have no idea how much the outside world has changed! It's quite fascinating!"
At this moment, the Minister of Magic took a deep breath, and the silk threads on his hands dispersed. The dark purple silk threads that had been wrapped around Liu Kunsheng receded like a tide and instantly disappeared into the air.
With the restraints lifted, Liu Kunsheng's enormous spiritual phantom slowly dissipated, transforming into a black wisp that returned to the unconscious Deng Youfu's body.
The Minister of Magic breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, as controlling a top-tier fairy with the power of a clone was no small feat.
At that very moment, from the referee's stand, Master Rongshan's booming voice resounded throughout the arena: "Deng Youfu versus Lu Xiaobai, the winner is—Lu Xiaobai!"
He paused, then continued, "The next match will be between Lu Linglong and Zhang Lingyu! Both contestants, please prepare to enter the arena!"
As soon as Rong Shan finished speaking, the entire arena fell into a brief silence before erupting into screams of "Ahhhhhh, Lu Xiaobai!!!"
"We won! That was so cool!!!"
"Little White! Little White! Look here!!"
"Husband! Marry me! I want to have your babies!!!"
"Don't listen to her, little brother! Your older sister will wait until you're an adult!!!"
The deafening screams and cheers, which nearly lifted the roof off, erupted like a tsunami!
The vast majority of them were female voices that cracked with excitement!
The name Lu Xiaobai, along with this incredible victory and his mysterious and powerful image, will be thoroughly engraved in the hearts of the younger generation in the domestic supernatural community by countless screams and cheers, and will resound throughout the entire Longhu Mountain!
Surrounded by countless ardent gazes and blatant declarations of love, the Minister of Magic, feeling the overwhelming enthusiasm, especially the screams that made him dig his toes into the ground, his fair cheeks instantly turned even paler, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into!
Minister of Magic: Help! I wish I could just disappear right now! Waaaaah!
