The competition would only begin a few days later. During this period of time, Lin Bai had been cultivating without any sleep or food. After all, he had reached an agreement with Chen Wu, and the strength of the Thousand Beast Chamber of Commerce’s people was not to be underestimated.

In the basement of the back mountain.
Under the dim light, one could faintly see a huge white cocoon. If anyone else were to come closer to take a look, they would be shocked to discover that it was actually Lin Bai. They could only see his body floating in mid-air, the spiritual energy within his body circulating, swallowing clouds and exhaling fog.
The air was congealed with wisps of white fog that drooped down like a distant Milky Way, wrapping him within.
The scene was like a dream and an illusion. Even this dilapidated basement seemed to be shining brightly.
Heaven Devouring Myriad Phase Art was circulating at a high speed in his body. It was as if it was a bottomless pit and drained spiritual energy and cultivation rapidly. If this continued, they would be completely exhausted.
“Little Green!”
Lin Bai shouted. Little Green, who was dozing off beside him, immediately stood up and quickly landed in his hand.
[ Ding! ]
[ The host has passed Little Green ten days of cultivation. ]
[ The hundred times return has been successfully triggered! ]
1
[ The host has obtained a thousand days of cultivation! ]
Boom!
A loud noise could be heard as a huge amount of spiritual energy gushed out from the basement. The huge white cocoon was now like a small boat floating in the boundless ocean.
Countless spiritual power washed through Lin Bai’s veins. Under the baptism of the spiritual power, even the blood vessels on his hands revealed a faint golden color.
His body and Dantian were constantly tempered. The bottleneck that he could not touch was suddenly opened, and something gushed out.
Lin Bai frowned. At this moment, he felt that his entire body was undergoing reconstruction and forging. It was as if his bones had been broken, and the impurities hidden in the depths of his flesh and blood had been removed.
If it were any other ordinary person, they would have probably fainted by now. However, he did not make a single sound. Other than his pale face, no one could tell how much pain he was suffering at this moment.
1
Bean-sized beads of sweat slid down his forehead. Lin Bai’s eyes were bloodshot, and his original white cocoon had turned a little more blood-red. He did not know how long this inhuman pain had lasted.
Lin Bai was almost numb. He only felt his body relax, as if there was a warm current flowing through his body, repairing the previous wounds. That feeling was like a dead tree coming back to life, and everything sprouting. It was extremely magical.
All the pain disappeared and was replaced by abundant spiritual energy. A divine light flashed in his eyes, making people even more afraid to look at him directly.
2
A divine light flashed in the air. Lin Bai’s figure was nowhere to be seen. In just a breath, he appeared on the back mountain.
“Boom!”
He punched the mountain rock,
the originally indestructible mountain body was like tofu. Suddenly, the mountain collapsed and the earth cracked. Broken stones flew in all directions. Birds flew up in shock. It was as if the sky was about to collapse.
After a moment, everything calmed down. It was as if a fierce wind had passed by, destroying everything, especially the marks on the mountain.
He couldn’t believe that this was actually done by a human.
Even Lin Bai himself was a bit surprised. He looked at his hand. “I didn’t expect that the combination of Heaven Devouring Myriad Phase Art and the Octane Blast would be so powerful.”
He had only casually waved his hand just now, and didn’t even release fifty percent of his power, but it was already so terrifying.
Now, his Heaven Devouring Myriad Phase Art was already quite effective. He had cultivated the power of two elephants, and he had only obtained this cultivation technique for a short time. If this speed were to be spread out, it would scare people to death.
His strength could be said to have multiplied.
“Hiss Hiss –”
Hearing Little Green’s movements, Lin Bai saw that it seemed to have grown a little bigger, and the small bulge on its forehead also became more obvious.
“Eh, what is this?”
He took a closer look and saw that five inches in front of the snake, there was an additional bulge, one on the left and one on the right. Lin Bai touched it, and that feeling was somewhat indescribable. It was a bit like the bones of a bird.

“Could it be that these are wings?”
The more Lin Bai looked at it, the more he felt that it was highly possible. Little Green should be evolving towards the direction of the Rain dragon. He didn’t know what would happen on the day it matured.
“I almost forgot the date of the competition.”
Lin Bai hurried down the mountain, but he didn’t know that the competition between the four major forces had already begun.
The Wind and Cloud Dojo and the Thousand Beast Chamber of Commerce stood facing each other. Not only were the people from the Wind and Cloud Dojo in a sorry state, but they also had wounds of varying sizes on their bodies, making them look rather miserable.
On the other hand, the Thousand Beast Chamber of Commerce was acting high and mighty for no other reason than that the competition was divided into eight matches. Other than Chen Wu who had won, the Wind and Cloud Dojo had lost two matches in a row, and were already on the verge of elimination.
The Wind and Cloud Dojo had sent out all of their elites. On the other hand, the Ten Thousand Beast Chamber of Commerce still had a few elite disciples who had yet to make a move. Chen Wu could not help but reveal a look of despair.
Could it be that the Wind and Cloud Dojo was really going to stop here.
Wan Heliang walked over smugly. “Why do you have to put up a stubborn resistance? The competition is already set in stone. Your Wind and Cloud Dojo will definitely lose. Why don’t you follow me earlier?”
After saying that, he stretched out his hand to touch Chen Wu’s face, but was flung away by Chen Wu. “This is a competition ground. Please show some respect.”
Wan Heliang seemed to have heard a huge joke. “You’re about to become my woman. I can do whatever I want.”
Chen Wu bit her lips tightly. “It’s not the final moment yet. The outcome is still uncertain. Don’t be too pleased with yourself.”

At this moment, the referee’s voice came from the arena.
“The Thousand Beast Chamber of Commerce versus the Wind and Cloud Daoist sect. The Thousand Beast Chamber of Commerce wins!”
Another loss!
Chen Wu’s face instantly turned pale. If she lost another match, she would lose the qualification to participate in the competition. If she wanted to win, it meant that she had to win four matches in a row. This was simply impossible to accomplish.
Wan Heliang’s ambiguous gaze swept across Chen Wu. “Looks like I’ll have to immediately order people to arrange our wedding.”
He turned around and left with a savage smile.
Chen Wu’s eyes were red with anger. She clenched her fists and made cracking sounds. The others were afraid that she would do something impulsive. “Senior martial sister, the big picture is the most important thing. We will definitely not let you marry that scum!”
1
Although she said that, the expressions on everyone’s faces did not look good.
“Senior martial sister, what should we do? Almost no one from our side can go on stage…”
The sobbing voice of the little junior sister came from beside her.
“Hasn’t Lin Bai arrived yet?”
2
The junior martial brother guarding the door shook his head.
Could it be that he had retreated on the spot or that he was afraid of offending the Thousand Beast Chamber of Commerce? Various thoughts flashed through Chen Wu’s mind, and she couldn’t help but sigh. She had originally thought that Lin Bai was an important figure, but she hadn’t expected him to be just so-so.
“In the end, it’s me who overestimated him.”
After hearing this, the members of the wind and cloud dojo were even more flustered. “Then what should we do next?”
It was about to be time to enter the arena but none of them were able to enter.
