Chapter 869: So good at pretending?

"Lao Deng, I don't want to bother with you."

Jianmu made the sound leisurely and contentedly.

Wudao Tea Tree was so angry that he would puff out his beard and glare, if he had a beard.

"Master, the aura of this old Biden is really annoying, just kill him!!!"

The enlightened tea tree knew that it could not do anything to Jianmu, so it had to vent its anger on the skinny old man.

Jianmu also disliked the aura of this skinny old man. His strange power was incompatible with this world, but it was also extremely aggressive.

"Master, where did this old fellow come from? How dare he be so arrogant in our Kunlun Holy Land???"

Jianmu was very unhappy with this old guy.

"This is a very troublesome guy." Ye Chen did not explain further.

Jianmu and Wudao Tea Tree were both surprised. Even the sect leader said "trouble". Could this old guy really have some background?

Ye Chen was still thinking about what the skinny old man had just said.

He said that he was a pure creature from the holy world, and that he regained his identity after being inspired by the holy power.

If, according to this speculation, these strange creatures themselves came from foreign lands, but they only "awakened" after coming into contact with strange powers.

Therefore, they deny all experiences in the divine world from the bottom of their hearts.

But according to Ye Chen's speculation, this possibility is very small.

He was more inclined to believe that a mysterious force had influenced them, causing them to become like different people.

Take the three monks he met in the lower world who were eroded by strange power. There is no doubt that the three of them were originally creatures from the heavens and all worlds.

But after being eroded by the strange power, they entered a statue-like state.

According to the description of the Divine Martial Saint Emperor, those who were initially eroded by the strange power would enter this state. In the next stage of the state, they would wake up again and become a different person.

In other words, people who are eroded will go through two stages.

The first stage is to become like a statue.

The second stage is the birth of a new personality.

"The original personality was washed away and a second personality was born. Is this a complete re-washing of the soul? Even the cognition has changed. It's like being possessed by another body."

Ye Chen was surprised by this. This strange power was so overbearing that even the strong men at the Chaos Saint Emperor level would lose themselves after being completely eroded by it.

This situation is very much like conversion.

Ye Chen removed the seal on the skinny old man's mouth, allowing him to continue making sounds.

"Hu! Hu! Hu!"

The skinny old man was panting. He roared for a long time, but no sound came out and his throat was almost hoarse.

He glared at Ye Chen with resentment. He could see that this man had no respect for the holy power and the holy world.

"What's inside this holy realm you mentioned? Who are you loyal to?" Ye Chen asked coldly.

"Humph, if you ask me, I will tell you? Are we going to tell you that we are only loyal to the Supreme Emperor???"

The skinny old man looks very tight-lipped.

Ye Chen's brows moved slightly: "Oh? Supreme Emperor? Who is that???"

At this time, the skinny old man realized that he seemed to have let the cat out of the bag. His face suddenly became tense, and then he kept silent.

Ye Chen smiled: "It doesn't matter, there will be plenty of time for you to speak later."

He was not in a hurry. It was not easy to figure out the foreign land and strange power. He planned to spend some time to torture this skinny old man slowly. If that didn't work, he could just search his soul.

Unexpectedly, this skinny old man was very strong-willed.

He stared at Ye Chen intently and said sternly: "I know you want to get more information from me, but don't even think about it! I would rather die than leak information to the enemy again. One day in the future, the Supreme Emperor will come, and you low-level creatures just wait!!!"

After he finished speaking, the strange power in his body began to riot, and his body and soul exploded uncontrollably.

With a loud bang, he died, not a single bone was left, not even a trace of spiritual power remained.

Ye Chen's eyes turned cold. He didn't expect that the other party was so loyal to the so-called "Supreme Emperor" and would rather die than live in disgrace.

Within his control, the skinny old man could actually self-destruct and escape from his control, which he had not expected.

This strange power is more troublesome than he thought!

"Tracing back to the essence, only absolute strength can suppress everything. Even the so-called strange power can only turn into a piece of dirt!!!"

Soon, Ye Chen was no longer entangled in the strange power.

As for how to deal with and respond to the possibility that the alien world will completely erode the heavenly world in the future, to outsiders, this is a huge disaster. But looking through the phenomenon to see the essence, it is actually very easy to solve.

As long as he is strong enough, there is nothing he cannot solve!

The "Supreme Emperor" mentioned by the skinny old man, if this person really exists, I'm afraid he must be very powerful.

At the very least, he is definitely more powerful than the average Chaos Saint Emperor!

Ye Chen didn’t know if he would be a match for the so-called Supreme Emperor if he faced him now.

But he knew that as long as he continued to become stronger, if the day came when he really faced the Supreme Emperor, the final result would definitely be that he would kill the so-called Supreme Emperor with his powerful force!

Therefore, strong strength is the foundation!

All the troubles come from insufficient firepower!

After figuring this out, Ye Chen temporarily put aside his entanglement with the strange power and continued to comprehend the world rules of the Supreme God Realm and the great way of this world.

His thoughts also returned to his disciples.

The direct disciples are still participating in the Xukun Realm Genius Battle, and the battle is now about to reach its final stage.

Ye Chen never worries about their performance.

..................

At the genius battle venue, the second round of competition has ended and the winners are eligible for the third round.

Naturally, all of Kunlun’s disciples advanced.

Many contestants were puzzled by the fact that they were able to advance. Are the Kunlun disciples really that strong? Given the many restrictions in the second round, how could they all advance?

Does this mean that they all have real talent?

Most of the contestants wanted to focus on their own competitions, so they did not witness the performance of the Kunlun disciples in the ring.

Therefore, they were still skeptical about the promotion of Kunlun disciples.

"Are these thirteen Kunlun disciples really that powerful? They all made it through the second round???"

"Everyone said before that they would only rely on powerful weapons, but with the rules of the second round, they can no longer find loopholes. I believe that their strength is really great!!!"

"Having said that, I still find it hard to believe!!!"

"With those seniors as referees, I believe that the disciples of Kunlun will not be able to cheat. Anyone who still looks down on the disciples of Kunlun will definitely suffer a great loss once they meet them!!!"

Many disciples also began to fear the Kunlun disciples.

As for their specific strength, we can only wait and see their performance in the future.

"The third round begins now! Everyone come over and get your own sign!!!"

Just as everyone was waiting for the third round to begin, a steady voice spread throughout the venue, attracting everyone's attention.

Hearing this voice, everyone became alert.

“The third round is finally about to begin!!!”

"I don't know who my opponent will be this time? Please don't assign a strong opponent to me, I still want to survive to the end!!!"

"I would like to rank with the Kunlun disciples. I just want to test their strength!!!"

"If I'm matched with those top talents, I'm doomed. It won't be too late to meet them in the next few rounds!!!"

Some disciples were very nervous, worried that they would meet strong opponents and that their journey in the ring would end like this.

However, some disciples were eager to fight. They wanted to challenge the strong and verify their own strength. Naturally, they had to meet a strong opponent to show their strength!

All the disciples flew to the side of Sect Master Canghai, waiting for him to distribute the signs.

Just like in the second round, everyone was randomly assigned an identity token.

Holding an identity token, one can sense the presence of another identity token.

In this way, you can know who your opponent is.

Rays of light automatically flew into the hands of all the contestants. The moment they held the token, they began to look around, searching for their opponents based on the slight connection of the token.

After Mu Yan got the token, he felt something in his heart. He looked in a certain direction and found that another token was in the hands of a young man in light gold clothes.

This young man has long flowing hair and a cool yet unrestrained temperament.

He has a slender figure, yet he looks powerful!

This person was dressed in light golden clothes, and his entire body seemed to be shrouded in golden divine light, noble and mysterious.

The young man in light gold clothes didn't care about his opponent at first, but when he saw that his opponent was actually a disciple of Kunlun, he couldn't help but become interested.

"It's interesting that I met someone from Kunlun so soon." He revealed a faint smile.

Some people also noticed his abnormality and were very surprised, because this young man in light gold clothes was the number one genius of Canghai Sect, Gu Xinghui!

Gu Xinghui actually laughed?

Who is his opponent?

Could it be some other top geniuses?

Otherwise, with Gu Xinghui's arrogance, ordinary people would definitely not arouse his interest. Only when he meets a real strong person will he smile.

Noticing this, many people around were extremely curious, who is Gu Xinghui's opponent?

Everyone started looking around, and they soon found the man.

"What? He is a disciple of Kunlun???"

"This is getting interesting. Everyone wants to know the details of Kunlun's disciples. If this kid runs into Gu Xinghui, he's doomed if he doesn't have the skills!!!"

"However, Gu Xinghui is interested in him, which means he must have some strength!!!"

"Whether it's a mule or a horse, we can tell by taking it out for a walk???"

When everyone found out that Gu Xinghui's opponent was Mu Yan, they became even more interested.

Because they have long wanted to see the strength of Kunlun disciples, and now it is best to have Gu Xinghui to help them test.

If this man named Mu Yan can fight with Gu Xinghui, it means that he is really strong.

As for whether he could defeat Gu Xinghui, no one had ever thought about it.

Because their rigid thinking tells them that Gu Xinghui is unbeatable and that he is the invincible strong man of his generation!

Even if the other three top talents met him, the probability of losing would be higher.

Gu Xinghui will definitely win this battle.

The main thing is to see how long Mu Yan can last.

They were all more or less gloating. They met Gu Xinghui, the most powerful opponent right at the start. This guy named Mu Yan was really unlucky.

This kid must be extremely panicked now, right?

Everyone looked at Mu Yan, wanting to know what he was feeling.

However, when they saw Mu Yan, they all looked confused.

Because, at this moment, Mu Yan was too calm and did not react much.

He was not panicked, afraid, or confused.

It's as if all this is as insignificant as the breeze blowing across your face.

Many people don’t understand why he can remain so indifferent. Doesn’t he know that his opponent is the strongest genius in the Xukun Realm?

How could he remain so calm when faced with a losing situation?

"Damn, this kid is really good at pretending! I want to see if he can still act so nonchalant later!!!"

"Is there really no reaction at all? Who are you kidding? Are you pretending to be calm???"

"Humph, maybe he is really capable, but he can never be a match for Gu Xinghui!!!"

"Let this kid pretend for a while. When he really gets on the stage, he'll cry!!!"

Many contestants sneered at the calmness displayed by Mu Yan. They all thought that this calmness was just pretended because he didn't want to lose his composure in public.

Maybe he was already extremely panicked!

Just because he likes to pretend, everyone looks down on him!

In the face of real strength, no matter how good you are at pretending, it will be useless. Once you are on the stage, all your disguises will be forcibly torn off!

Gu Xinghui also noticed Mu Yan's unusual calmness.

He was somewhat surprised, but more of it was disdain.

"Pretending in front of me, Gu Xinghui? How long can you keep pretending???"

Gu Xinghui thought to himself.

This was the first time he had seen someone so pretentious.

Facing the number one genius of the Xukun Realm, how could this kid act as if nothing had happened? How was it possible? No one could act like this in front of Gu Xinghui, not even Kunlun's disciples!

No, it should be said that even the other three top geniuses can’t do it!
