Chapter 1039

The whip cracked continuously as Earth Monarch Tegu swung it, retreating as he attacked. His method was flawless. He used the whips advantage to maintain a distance, making it difficult for Yi Tianyun to land his most violent attacks.

After several attacks, Yi Tianyuns ferocious power was mostly drained and absorbed by the whip. Unless he continued to muster more strength and launch a full-scale a.s.sault, he wouldnt even be able to touch Earth Monarch Tegu, let alone harm him.

In this situation, Yi Tianyun had gained no advantage; instead, his energy had been significantly siphoned off. If that whip landed on his body, it would draw out even more energy, possibly even his essence blood.

Soul Devouring Divine Art, a low-grade Heavenly Dao martial art. No wonder its so powerful.

Yi Tianyun quickly realized the nature of Earth Monarch Tegus martial art. Such a deep foundation couldnt be weak, especially since it could be used with a weapon, making it extremely sinister.

The whip was obviously custom-made; ordinary weapons wouldnt have this effect.

Yi Tianyuns attacks were neutralized, giving everyone a new perspective on Earth Monarch Tegu.

This guys attacks are weird. He just pierced Earth Monarch Yuhua with one spear, but it doesnt work at all against this guy.

Anyone who makes it to the top four isnt simple. I think Earth Monarch Tegu is a dark horse and might take second place!

First place is undoubtedly Earth Monarch Tianqing. The second might be him Does this mean Earth Monarch Tianyuns violence does not affect him?

Seems that way. Earth Monarch Tianyuns attacks are stronger than before, yet they still have no effect.

People began to discuss who had the best chance of winning.

Earth Monarch Tegu didnt stop his attack, swinging his whip at Yi Tianyun. His attacks appeared gentle, even soft.

Yi Tianyun quickly parried with the Tianchen Divine Spear. Snap! Upon contact, a surge of energy exploded on the spear, bouncing him to the side.

What seemed like a gentle attack had the explosive power of a bomb on his spear. More importantly, it siphoned off his energy as if the whip was a conduit.

Thousand Shadow Whip!

Earth Monarch Tegu didnt relent, swinging the whip rapidly. In an instant, it split into thousands, attacking from all directions like a dense rain of swords. Each strike stripped away more of Yi Tianyuns energy.

However, Yi Tianyun blocked with his spear, steadily advancing. But with each step forward, Earth Monarch Tegu retreated, maintaining the distance.

Even Yi Tianyuns penetrating attacks were absorbed by the whip.

How is his defense so strong? Hes blocking all my attacks! Earth Monarch Tegu was frustrated that his relentless a.s.sault hadnt landed a significant hit.

Finally, during the wild attacks, Earth Monarch Tegu managed to land a hit on Yi Tianyun. The whip glowed blood-red, drawing a few drops of blood from Yi Tianyun into Earth Monarch Tegus body.

Its happening!

Earth Monarch Tegus eyes lit up, thinking he had finally found what he wanted. But upon absorbing the blood, he realized it was ordinary.

What? Human blood, not essence blood!? Earth Monarch Tegus face darkened. He expected to absorb powerful essence blood, possibly even unique blood, from Yi Tianyun.

Instead, he got ordinary blood.

This whip absorbs blood. And you say youre not from the Evil Spirit Race? Yi Tianyuns voice echoed in his ears, startling him. Yi Tianyun had closed the distance without him noticing.

When Earth Monarch Tegu tried to whip him again, a cold light flashed in the corner of his eye. Boom! The spear struck his back.

Ugh

With a groan, Earth Monarch Tegu was sent flying, blood blossoming from his back and staining his clothes. He quickly regained his balance and landed, albeit shakily.

Evil Spirit Race!?

The term immediately aroused suspicion among the audience, drawing their attention to Earth Monarch Tegu.

Earth Monarch Tianyun, I respect you as my opponent, but you cant slander me just to win! Earth Monarch Tegu said sternly. My martial arts are a bit sinister, but that doesnt make me an Evil Spirit Race member. Ive already explained this! If being sinister makes one Evil Spirit Race, then thats too arbitrary.

I was thoroughly tested to compete here. Are you doubting the five Divine Realms ability to detect such things?

He refused to admit it, instead turning the accusation against Yi Tianyun, trying to discredit him.

Right, Earth Monarch Tianyun must think he cant win, so hes resorting to slander!

Thats low. Winning like that is disgraceful.

Exactly. If you cant win, dont tarnish your opponents reputation.

Many thought Yi Tianyun was being unfair. After all, Earth Monarch Tegu had been thoroughly tested during bone age checks and other evaluations, making it unlikely he was an Evil Spirit Race member.

Yi Tianyuns accusation seemed suspicious.

Dont worry, I was just speculating. You seem quite nervous about it, Yi Tianyun replied with a calm smile.

He had a good idea of Earth Monarch Tegus intentions: to absorb the essence blood of many geniuses for his use. No wonder he attacked slowly, trying to siphon his opponents essence blood bit by bit.

While it looked sinister, it didnt necessarily confirm he was Evil Spirit Race. Such abilities werent exclusive to them, and the thorough tests might have missed this deeply hidden trait. Without such deep concealment, he wouldnt have dared to partic.i.p.ate in the Ascension Battle.

Speculating? Earth Monarch Tianyun, you must be responsible for your words! Earth Monarch Tegus voice turned cold. I respect you as my opponent, but slandering me is unacceptable!

Yi Tianyun smiled faintly. A thief calling out thief.

Lets see how I force you to reveal your true form, little one! Yi Tianyuns eyes turned cold as he formulated a plan.
