Demon Sect Cultivation: I Can Disable Debuffs

Chapter 143 - 143: Advancement Again

The disciples of the White Bone Hall didn’t hesitate to engage in a power-consuming battle with Zhang Chen. As soon as he stepped onto the stage, he directly activated the White Bone True Body, turning into a giant skeleton. He slammed his palm down.

“Whoosh!”

Before the skeletal palm could descend, Zhang Chen’s figure dissipated in advance, transforming into a puddle of blood.

“Boom!”

The skeletal palm landed, causing the ground to tremble violently. If it weren’t the formation bolstering the stage, it would have collapsed instantly.

In the corner of the stage, the blood pooled together, and Zhang Chen returned to his human form. He waved his hand, and 10 Blood God Sons flew out.

The disciple from the Bone Palace wiped his pelvis, and seven skeletons fell to the ground.

It was precisely the signature spell of the White Bone Hall, the Bone Slave.

Among the seven skeletons, five were in the Qi Refinement realm, and two were in the Foundation Establishment stage. It was clear that the Blood God Sons were no match for them.

So Zhang Chen patted the beast breeding bag and released two Foundation Establishment stage demon beasts.

“Besides the Blood God Sons, Zhang Chen also controls Foundation

Establishment demon beasts!”

Below the arena, the disciples of the other three sects were amazed by Zhang Chen’s continuous display of abilities.

Initially, they thought the Blood God Sect was lacking in capable individuals, which was why they allowed a fourth-layer Foundation Establishment cultivator to participate.

But now, they put away their disdain and considered Zhang Chen a formidable opponent.

Then, someone began to analyze and speculate.

“There’s a slave mark on the heads of the two demon beasts. It should be a spell, the Beast Slave Seal. Since Zhang Chen can resist the Soul Annihilation Thrust, his spiritual realm must be at least above the seventh layer of

Foundation Establishment. It’s entirely possible for him to control two

Foundation Establishment stage demonic beasts with the Beast Slave Seal.”

“But why are there two dog demons?”

Whether intentional or unintentional, the two Foundation Establishment demon beasts Zhang Chen summoned were dog demons.

The White Bone Hall was all about bones, and dogs liked to gnaw on bones!

The dog-like demon beasts drooled and pounced toward the skeletal slaves in the Foundation Establishment stage.

“If you want to gnaw on my bones, let’s see if your teeth are strong enough or if my bones are harder.”

The White Bone Hall also realized the hidden meaning behind the dog-like demonic beasts. He clasped his palms together and angrily slammed them onto the ground.

“White Bone Barrier!”

“Boom boom boom boom boom boom…”

Sharp and sturdy bone spikes continuously emerged from the ground, spreading and branching out like trees.

If the Blood God Sons and the Blood Refining Scripture were the core techniques of the Blood God Sect, then the Bone Barrier and the Bone Slave spreading and branching out like trees.

It was said that when cultivated to the highest realm, one could transform an area into a bone world, commanding countless white bones at will and having an endless supply of Bone Slaves.

In a blink of an eye, the arena transformed into a white forest of bones, eerie and terrifying, filled with danger.

Zhang Chen turned into blood light, dodging the consecutive bone spikes that emerged.

However, the arena was only so big, and the space to evade was shrinking rapidly. The longer the time passed, the more perilous and unfavorable the situation became.

Watching Zhang Chen’s desperate evasion, the disciple from the White Bone Hall excitedly increased his power output. But he failed to notice a puddle of blood that had already approached him from a crack in the ground.

That was Zhang Chen’s true body, the one attacked by the White Bone Barrier was actually the Blood Shadow Avatar.

When he transformed into blood earlier, he used the Blood Shadow Avatar and split into two puddles.

The Blood Shadow Avatar attracted the firepower upfront while he used the Yin Energy Isolating Technique, hiding his aura as he approached the disciple from the White Bone Hall, waiting for the right moment to strike.

Now the disciple from the White Bone Hall was completely focused on the clone, making it the perfect opportunity for a surprise attack.

The blood clung to the White Bone True Body and moved rapidly towards the head.

Feeling something amiss on his body, the disciple from the White Bone Hall finally realized that something was wrong, but it was too late.

Before the White Bone Hall disciple could react, Zhang Chen had already arrived at his head.

Mad Blood Saber Technique!

Zhang Chen brandished his blood saber, infusing the frenzy into the mind of the disciple from the White Bone Hall.

The White Bone True Body had astonishing defense. With a cultivation at the sixth layer of Foundation Establishment, it could withstand attacks from middle-grade spiritual weapons without damage. Only attacks targeting the soul and spirit could restrain it.

Though his movements were slower compared to the speed-oriented sects like the Blood God Sect, they were not sluggish compared to most sects.

As the frenzy surged in, the disciple of the White Bone Hall clutched his head in pain, and the light in the skull’s eyes flickered erratically.

“Chop, chop, chop, chop, chop, chop…”

“Annnnnn…”

The White Bone Hall disciple descended into madness, screaming in agony.

With no mana to sustain the Bone Barrier, the bone spikes began to crumble into bone dust, and the Bone Slaves stood dumbfounded in their spots.

As time passed, the disciple from the White Bone Hall was increasingly affected, even attacking indiscriminately without distinguishing between friend and foe.

Several Foundation Establishment Bone Slaves were directly crushed into fragments by his own hands.

Zhang Chen’s eyes turned bloodshot as well, pretending to be influenced by the frenzy, he used Blood Burst Technique to empower his arms and attacked frantically.

The remaining consciousness of the disciple from the White Bone Hall knew that if this continued, he would undoubtedly become a madman. He had to quickly shake off the influence of the frenzy.

The simplest way was to surrender and make Zhang Chen stop, but under the invasion of the frenzy, he couldn’t even open his mouth.

After much contemplation, the disciple from the White Bone Hall finally came up with a plan—to put his soul into a deep sleep and unconsciousness, thus avoiding the influence of the frenzy.

And to make his soul fall into a deep sleep and unconsciousness, he had to inflict severe injuries on his soul.

Injuries could be slowly healed, but if he turned into a madman capable of anything, he might lose his life because of it.

With this in mind, the disciple from the White Bone Hall disciple no longer hesitated and immediately self-destructed a portion of his soul.

“Boom!”

His soul fell into a deep sleep and the huge White Bone True Body crashed to the ground.

“The Blood God Sect wins!”

With the announcement from the Blood God Sect’s leader, Zhang Chen was once again stripped of his mana and escorted off the arena.

Zhang Chen’s eyes remained bloodshot, filled with a murderous aura as he looked at the people around him, seemingly not yet recovered from the effects of the Mad Blood Saber Technique.

People involuntarily moved away, fearing that Zhang Chen might suddenly go berserk.

“I didn’t expect Zhang Chen to win again!” Many sighed in admiration. To win three consecutive matches was already remarkable among the top contenders of the four sects.

More importantly, Zhang Chen was only at the fourth level of Foundation Establishment, two levels lower than the others, making his achievements even more extraordinary.

Many even believed that if Zhang Chen reached the sixth level of Foundation

Establishment, he would undoubtedly become the number one in the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.

As for now, it was hard to say. All they could do was hope for the championship.

With the conclusion of the third round of battles, the Blood God Sect had a total of five members advancing.

Among them, one was in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, two in the mid-stage, and three in the late stage.

Now, each group had only five people remaining, which meant that one lucky person would receive a bye in the fourth round.

And according to the rule of matching similar numbers, Zhang Chen was fortunate enough to receive a bye.

However, in this Demon Path Grand Competition, only the first place would receive a reward. Apart from the first place, each match had no significance.

Therefore, even if someone received two consecutive byes, it would be meaningless if they lacked the strength.

With the conclusion of the fourth round of battles, the Blood God Sect had a total of four members advancing.

There was no change in the early and mid-stages of Foundation

Establishment, but one disciple was eliminated in the late stage, leaving only two remaining.

In the upcoming fifth round of battles, one person would still receive a bye.

But this time, Zhang Chen didn’t get a bye; he needed to step onto the stage and compete for the spot in the decisive battle.

His opponent was another disciple of the Blood God Sect..
