Xia Zhilan glanced at Yue Ling, then walked up to her and sneered, "In such a hurry to embarrass yourself?"
"Hey, Xia Zhilan, don't cry when your face gets smeared later..." Yue Ling retorted sharply, letting out a cold laugh.
The two women already had a grudge against each other, and the Wan Jin Chamber of Commerce and the Blood Wolf Gang were not on good terms, so this meeting was naturally a clash of titans.
A powerful surge of Yuan energy erupted from the two women almost simultaneously, the intense energy sweeping away the withered leaves on the ground like a whirlwind.
"Hey!"
The fiery red whip pierced through the air almost instantly, like a fiery python, and lashed out at Xia Zhilan with lightning speed.
Faced with Yue Ling's attack, Xia Zhilan snorted coldly, clenched her jade hand, and a fiery red longsword flashed out. Then, she moved swiftly and became entangled with Yue Ling.
The two women were at the same level, both in the late stage of the Heavenly Origin Realm. However, in terms of the strength of their Yuan Power, Xia Zhilan was superior. As expected, Xia Zhilan won this battle.
However, in the second round, Liu Yi unfortunately lost to Yue Shan's son, Yue Feng.
In this way, the Blood Wolf Gang leveled the score.
Upon realizing this, everyone's gaze turned in unison to Lin Yi, who was standing to one side.
With one win and one loss, the situation on the field suddenly became tense.
"Lin Yi, it's your turn... You should be able to do it, right?"
Xia Zhilan's pretty face was also filled with tension. She looked at Lin Yi with complicated eyes. She didn't expect that in the end, the outcome of this Immortal Pool competition would really depend on Lin Yi.
Lin Yi stared at the man opposite him, a man with an ordinary face and a calm expression, and said with a faint smile, "No problem."
"Young friend, the outcome of this competition for the Immortal Pool may depend on you," Xia Wanjin said with a slight smile to Lin Yi.
"Don't worry, Chairman Xia," Lin Yi cupped his hands to Xia Wanjin, and then slowly walked towards the open space between the two forces.
"Xuansu, how confident are you in finding this person?" Looking at Lin Yi's back, Xia Wanjin asked Xuansu in a low voice, his expression tense.
"You should know how important the Pill Immortal Pool is. If our Wan Jin Chamber of Commerce can obtain the Pill Immortal Pool, Zhi Lan will be able to break through to the Yuan Dan Realm within two years, and even use the remaining energy to cultivate several Yuan Dan experts."
“He defeated Song Qing in just two moves, and he didn’t even use his full strength,” Xuan Su said with a faint smile.
"Is that really the case?!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Wanjin was overjoyed.
Although Xia Wanjin knew that Lin Yi had taken one of the spots, he was unaware that Lin Yi had fought with Song Qing three days ago.
When Lin Yi entered the arena, the Blood Wolf Gang members also gave him a few extra glances.
Yue Shan glanced at Lin Yi, then turned his gaze to the gray-clad man who hadn't spoken until now. "Jiang Li, it's your turn."
“Hmm,” the man called Jiang Li nodded calmly and said, “Remember our agreement.”
"Haha, don't worry! As long as you win, you'll get all the rewards I promised," Yue Shan laughed.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Li smiled, then leisurely walked into the arena, stopped in front of Lin Yi, bowed his head to adjust his sleeves, and said calmly:
"I don't spar with others, and once I start, I strike with extreme force. If you're not prepared, you'd better leave now."
"Make your move!" Lin Yi glanced at him calmly, stretched out his palm, and said indifferently.

Jiang Li raised his head, glanced at Lin Yi, sighed slightly with a strange expression, and then stretched out his unusually long and thin hands.
"Since that's the case... then don't blame me for being ruthless..."
Jiang Li murmured softly, and then several fingers, as sharp as blades, shot through the air with lightning speed, aiming straight for Lin Yi's throat!
On those unusually long fingers, the powerful Yuan energy fluctuations were extremely concentrated, and tiny whirlwinds rapidly condensed at the fingertips. The power of this finger was enough to pierce through even refined iron.
"What a sharp finger strike!"
Those watching from the sidelines were also somewhat surprised by Jiang Li's offensive.
Despite being the target of the attack, Lin Yi remained calm. His right palm struck out with lightning speed, almost piercing through Jiang Li's fingers while enveloped in Yuan energy, before slamming down heavily on the back of Jiang Li's hand.
"Snapped!"
A crisp sound rang out in the arena.
The next instant, Jiang Li's expression changed slightly. He felt a violent surge of Yuan energy starting from the back of his hand and spreading up his arm, interrupting the flow of his Yuan energy. His fingers immediately lost their offensive power.
Jiang Li acted decisively, stomping his foot on the ground and suddenly retreating to create distance between himself and Lin Yi. At the same time, he mobilized his internal energy to clear away the violent energy that Lin Yi had invaded his arm.
Seeing this, Lin Yi quickly took a few steps forward and chased after Jiang Li. At the same time, he bent two fingers together, and an exceptionally sharp Yuan power condensed at his fingertips, like a sword blade, and he pointed it sharply at Jiang Li!
Upon seeing this, Jiang Li immediately stopped concealing his strength, and a powerful surge of energy, as if it had been suppressed for a long time, erupted from his body almost instantly.
"Late stage of the Heavenly Origin Realm!"
Upon seeing Jiang Li's sudden surge in strength, many members of the Wan Jin Chamber of Commerce exclaimed in surprise.
Before this, Jiang Li had disguised himself as a mid-stage Tianyuan Realm cultivator. Only now did they realize Jiang Li's true strength.
Ignoring the astonishment of others, Jiang Li faced Lin Yi's attack head-on, his unusually long fingers swiftly pointing out to meet Lin Yi's sharp finger wind.
When the four fingers touched, a powerful surge of elemental energy erupted almost instantly.
"laugh!"
The moment the four fingers touched, both sides simultaneously increased their energy output, and the four fingers seemed to transform into four short swords!
"Crack!"
After a brief stalemate, a crisp sound rang in everyone's ears.
In the next instant, everyone saw that Jiang Li's two fingers had been broken off!
Immediately afterwards, Lin Yi unleashed a burst of energy from his fingertips, sending Jiang Li flying backward and crashing heavily into a boulder.
"Won!"
Upon seeing this, the Wan Jin Chamber of Commerce erupted in cheers, and Xia Zhilan and the others were also filled with joy.
However, at this moment, Jiang Li, who had been thrown back, got up again. A thick, blood-red mist sprayed out from his pores, resembling blood and exuding a fishy smell.
"You really have the guts to push me to this point, but it should end here..."
Jiang Li got up, staring at Lin Yi not far away with a sinister look, and said in a hoarse voice.
"Chichi!"
Blood-red mist continuously spewed out from Jiang Li's body. Finally, this blood mist slowly receded and condensed into a thin layer of blood scab on Jiang Li's body surface.
These changes were completed in just a few breaths, and Jiang Li's aura continued to rise again amidst the shocked gazes of many!
"Blood Transformation and Origin Restoration Technique!"
Xia Wanjin, who was standing to the side, noticed the change in Jiang Li and his expression immediately changed. He spoke in a low voice.
"Blood Transformation and Return to Origin Technique?" Xia Zhilan and the others were taken aback, as they had never heard of this martial art before.
"It is an extremely ruthless secret technique. After it is used, it can evaporate the blood in the body, thereby greatly increasing strength in a short period of time. However, the aftereffects are extremely serious. After using it this time, Jiang Li will probably need to recuperate for at least half a year to recover."
Xia Wanjin explained slowly.
"Then how much can Jiang Li's strength increase?" Xia Zhilan asked hurriedly.
"It should be the Lesser Yuan Dan realm," Xia Wanjin said with a bitter smile, having already given up hope.
Upon hearing Xia Wanjin's words, Xia Zhilan and the others turned pale. Lin Yi was only at the late stage of the Heavenly Origin Realm, which was far inferior to the Lesser Yuan Dan Realm. They feared he had no chance of winning.
Xuan Su also frowned, but she secretly had some expectations for Lin Yi.
Lin Yi is already a second-level talisman master, which corresponds to the Lesser Yuan Dan realm!
"So this person has such methods. Father is truly brilliant!" Yue Feng, seeing this scene, was overjoyed.
“Jiang Li has now reached the Lesser Yuan Dan realm, which is invincible for you young people. This Danxian Pool belongs to my Blood Wolf Gang…” Yue Shan smiled faintly, with a calm and composed demeanor.
"A mere Nascent Soul cultivator might not necessarily win..."
Lin Yi chuckled lightly, and the two natal spirit talismans within his Niwan Palace trembled violently, with powerful spiritual energy rapidly condensing before him.
The invisible spiritual power rapidly condensed, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a tangible whirlwind cone!
It was the new spiritual manual Lin Yi had recently learned, Spiral Wave!
"What a strong spirit!"
Everyone around was quite shocked to see Lin Yi control his mental power to this extent.
Jiang Li also felt the pressure. A look of seriousness flashed in his scarlet eyes. He suddenly slapped his chest with his palm.
Then, the scabs covering his body slowly melted away. As the scabs melted, streams of blood began to flow into Jiang Li's palm, and instantly, his arm became like a blood-red arm of a demon!
Blood condensed in his arm, and without any hesitation, Jiang Li bent his knees slightly and, like a hungry wolf hunting its prey, charged towards Lin Yi with lightning speed.
"Blood-Melting Hand!"
A sharp shout rang out, and blood-red light erupted on the mountaintop. Immediately afterwards, a blood-red light imprint, about ten feet in size, appeared in Jiang Li's palm!
"Spike wave!"
A fierce glint flashed in Lin Yi's eyes. With a low shout, the whirlwind-shaped spike of mental energy in front of him suddenly began to spin, and finally roared out like a poisonous dragon burrowing into the ground!
Under the shocked gazes of many, the blood-red light and the whirlwind-like mental waves collided violently in mid-air!
"boom!"
A deafening roar, like a muffled thunderclap, resounded across the mountaintop. The fierce winds blasted the nearby trees, causing them to detach from the soil and fly backward!
The crowd resisted the strong wind, their eyes fixed on the sky, where blood and spiritual energy exploded simultaneously in an instant!
"boom!"
In the explosion, a figure was sent flying backward, a muffled groan coming from its mouth. Its face was pale and bloodless, and its body crashed uncontrollably into several large trees before rolling to the ground. Its eyes rolled back, and it remained motionless, as if it were dead!
Seeing the figure fall to the ground in a disheveled state, everyone's eyes were instantly drawn to him!

"Jiang Li!"
When they saw the figure's face clearly, they couldn't help but cry out in disbelief.
