184: conflict!

The silence at the scene lasted for several minutes.

Countless people stood up in shock, staring at the already black sky.

An indescribable emotion flowed within their hearts.

Before this competition began, no one could have imagined.

Such a shocking scene would occur.

The three-colored lotus blooming defiantly within the ultimate flames, in an absolutely invincible posture, enveloped more than half of the Demon Cave.

Even through the sky screen, the audience at the scene could feel as if they were there.

Just how terrifying was that blooming colored lotus!

At this moment, Liu Xiu on the commentary platform was almost going crazy.

He stared intently at the darkened sky screen, feeling every hair on his body stand on end.

"Lost contact?? My god!!!"

"This is almost the first time such a shocking scene has occurred in the hundred years since the Eastern Wasteland First Martial Arts Tournament has been held."

"Unbelievable, how powerful was that explosion? How could it create such a situation??"

He took a deep breath: "I just received news that the organizers are trying to restore the picture over there, which will probably take about three minutes of Time."

"After three minutes, the answer will be revealed."

Three minutes...

Countless people held their breath and focused.

What exactly happened inside the Demon Cave?

What kind of effect did Lin Yan's Heaven-Defying strike cause?

Also, what is the final result of this competition??

The audience at the scene, and everyone in the entire Eastern Wilderness who was following this competition, were all immensely looking forward to it.

In the direction of Reincarnation Holy Land, Huang San stared intently at the black screen.

His heart was extremely tense, perhaps even he hadn't expected it.

Things would actually evolve into such a scene.

That Lin Yan was actually so crazy, even daring to merge something like Heaven and Earth Strange Fire.

Could it be... he wasn't afraid of it backfiring on himself?

In the direction of Taichu Holy Land, Ying Huanying, Ling Xi, and the other women looked at the sky screen with some worry.

They were worried about Cai Lin's safety.

With an explosion of that level, even if Cai Lin retreated to the edge, was there really a way for her to be safe and sound?

The women looked nervous, their palms sweating.

Three minutes of Time was not long.

Soon, under everyone's gaze.

The dark sky screen gradually began to show color.

"It's coming!" Liu Xiu perked up.

They saw the blurry sky screen gradually become clear.

Inside the entire Demon Cave, it was currently filled with pervasive smoke and dust.

The first person to appear was Lin Dong.

As the first person to rapidly leave the mountain forest, he was now standing safely on the other side of the Demon Cave.

The explosion did not affect his vicinity.

Or rather, Lin Yan controlled the power this Time.

It destroyed a range of about two kilometers, which was the entire mountain forest.

As long as they listened to Lin Yan and left the mountain forest, people would basically be in no danger.

Besides him, the man from Boundless Sacred Ground also left the mountain forest, so the explosion there did not affect him.

However, the eyes shrouded under the hood were staring intently in the direction of the mountain forest.

Or rather... it no longer counted as a mountain forest.

The entire area was devoid of any trees or vegetation.

The entire two-kilometer radius was completely scorched black.

This greatly shocked the man, who had originally thought he was just going with the flow and letting Lin Yan and the others have their way this one Time.

That was why he proactively withdrew from the mountain forest.

But he hadn't expected Lin Yan to really have something up his sleeve.

With this kind of power, if he hadn't retreated just now...

Even he would probably have been seriously injured because of it.

A sense of relief at having survived a disaster lingered in his heart.

...

"Cough, cough..." Cai Lin propped herself up slowly with her hands on the ground.

Her face covered in soot, she turned her head to look at the scorched earth behind her.

Her heart was filled with shock.

Thinking back to just now, she was truly glad she chose to go to the edge of the mountain forest voluntarily.

This gave her enough Time to escape.

Indeed, she managed to escape the range of the mountain forest just as that terrifying fire lotus bloomed.

But even so, the shockwave produced by the explosion still made her suffer.

Her entire body was directly knocked over by the spreading impact.

The shockwave carried terrifying heatwaves.

Even she suffered some injuries because of it, with a burn appearing on her right leg.

Her light red skirt was also tattered.

Her chest heaved, and she gasped for breath, feeling the pain in her right leg. Instead of hating the perpetrator of all this, she felt somewhat fortunate.

Luckily, she was still willing to listen to advice, otherwise... she might have ended up like those people.

Her gaze looked towards the not-too-distant area.

Second Prince, Liu Shiqi, Xu Qingshan, and Lu Changsheng.

These guys were the ones who didn't take Lin Yan's words to heart and remained in the mountain forest.

The moment the explosion occurred, they were directly swept in.

Of course, they were far enough from Lin Yan.

They only just grazed the edge of the fire lotus, but even so.

They were still affected by the explosion.

In that brief moment just now, Cai Lin clearly saw these four guys being directly blown away.

Then they fell from the sky, landing not far in front of her.

Their appearance was utterly miserable.

It made Cai Lin couldn't help but shiver.

Of course, the most miserable ones were actually not these four.

But rather...

Cai Lin's gaze shifted again.

She saw a mound of earth standing on that scorched land.

After the outside world returned to calm, the mound began to stir.

Immediately after, it shattered with a bang.

Then, what came into view was Old Qin, covered in rags and looking haggard.

As well as Su Ze and Dai Muhei, each held in one of his hands.

They had both completely fallen into a coma at this moment.

Without a doubt, these two guys who actively went to cause trouble for Lin Yan were the closest people to Lin Yan.

Therefore, even though they started running the moment the explosion occurred.

They still couldn't escape.

It was also fortunate that at the last moment, Old Qin rushed in and, with his powerful strength, saved the two of them.

Otherwise, whether they could still survive would be a question.

But even so, these two were already seriously injured.

Old Qin put the two down and breathed a sigh of relief.

Protecting the two of them did not come without a price.

Old Qin himself also suffered injuries.

Yes, it was even more severe than the Time he was blown up by Lin Xiaobai yesterday.

Old Qin's heart was filled with frustration.

What the heck is going on?

Is being a referee this dangerous?

Yesterday's injuries hadn't fully healed yet, and he was blown up again today.

Is this a job for humans?

Carrying a heart full of resentment, Old Qin turned around and looked towards the center where the fire lotus had erupted.

The pervasive smoke and dust gradually began to clear.

Lin Yan's figure emerged from it, walking towards this side, with a score of seven hundred and thirty points above his head, looking down on all the heroes.

Looking at Lin Yan, Old Qin gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do.

After all, the competition rules didn't stipulate that large-scale destructive moves couldn't be used.

The key is, no one could have imagined that a single Lin Yan could create such a terrifying scene?

The range was secondary, many people could achieve two kilometers, the key was the power!

Not only did one strike clear out all the Demonic Beasts, but it could even injure him, an existence at the Extreme Dao Realm.

Wasn't this a bit too exaggerated?

Moreover, he had specifically reminded all the participants.

In other words, if someone was to blame for this matter, it could only be blamed on Su Ze and the others for underestimating Lin Yan too much.

Otherwise, he, Old Qin, wouldn't have risked rushing in to save people.

While he was thinking, Lin Yan had already walked up to him.

He raised a harmless smile: "Referee, the game should be over, right?"

Looking at Lin Yan, Old Qin took a deep breath and said irritably: "It's over."

Saying that, he lifted the unconscious Su Ze and Dai Muhei and left.

On the spot, Lin Yan shrugged his shoulders.

Then he stepped forward to follow.

When he reached the edge, he noticed Cai Lin, who had injured her leg.

His footsteps paused slightly.

Cai Lin was also stunned for a moment, not quite understanding what Lin Yan wanted to do.

But the next moment, Lin Yan extended his hand towards Cai Lin.

"If you don't mind, I'll help you over."

Cai Lin looked at Lin Yan and quickly blinked her eyes.

Her mind hadn't fully processed it yet, but her hand had already reached out and placed itself on Lin Yan's hand.

Then, Lin Yan used force to help Cai Lin up.

"Can you walk?" Lin Yan asked.

"Never mind, lean on my shoulder."

The somewhat bewildered Cai Lin was at a loss, she could only nod numbly, and then was supported by Lin Yan as they left.

...

Soon, Lin Yan, Lin Dong, and others, including Second Prince and others who were blown away but still conscious though unable to move.

As well as Su Ze and Dai Muhei, who had completely fallen into a coma.

They were all gathered together.

Second Prince and Xu Qingshan, these two could be said to be completely numb.

Yesterday they participated in scaring the Apple and were blown up.

Today they participated in hunting demons, and were still blown up.

It seemed that as long as they participated, they were either being blown up or on their way to being blown up.

Moreover, upon closer inspection, both times they were blown up were thanks to the Lin Family.

Numb, the two of them who were completely numb sat blankly on the ground.

Their eyes were vacant, and they didn't even know what they were thinking anymore.

The development of events exceeded everyone's imagination.

More than half of the half hour of Time was still left, but all the Demonic Beasts had been cleared.

Therefore, this game naturally ended accordingly.

After Old Qin tallied the scores of several people.

He reached a conclusion.

He began to announce it in front of everyone.

First place, without a doubt, was Lin Yan, his score of seven hundred and thirty points made him look down on all the heroes, unmatched by anyone.

Second place was also not weak, it was Lin Dong. Relying on the indiscriminate clearing with the Great Wilderness Sky Imprisoning Finger, Lin Dong, with his powerful strength, obtained a score of two hundred and eleven points.

In other words, the Lin Family twin stars, in this game event, obtained a total score of nine hundred and forty-one points.

Their results were ridiculously off the charts.

Third place went to Cai Lin. With her decent strength and excellent tactics, her score reached 16 points, securing third place.

Fourth place, unexpectedly, went to the man from Boundless Sacred Ground. He didn't actively search for Demonic Beasts, but after wandering in the mountain forest for a while, he voluntarily withdrew from the mountain forest. But even so, his score was 11 points, securing fourth place.

Fifth place went to Lu Changsheng, with 9 points, securing fifth place.

Sixth place went to Liu Shiqi, with 8 points.

Seventh place went to Xu Qingshan, with 6 points.

Eighth place went to Su Ze. Because this guy looked down on ordinary Demonic Beasts, he had been searching for Demon King Beasts, which resulted in his low score, currently only 4 points.

Ninth place: Second Prince, 3 points. With extremely bad luck, he had originally encountered over a dozen Demonic Beasts drinking water.

As a result, before the battle even began, he was immediately notified by Lin Yan, and then the fire lotus erupted.

This feeling was as if victory was right in front of him, but it was snatched away by Lin Yan, filling everyone from the Eastern Sky Dynasty with resentment.

Tenth place, Dai Muhei. Because from the beginning, he had a clear goal of causing trouble for Lin Yan and Lin Dong.

As a result, he couldn't handle Lin Dong, and Lin Yan was even worse. Along the way, the Demonic Beasts he cleared could be counted on one hand, with a total score of 2 points.

After the results were calculated.

The ranking scores of the major forces also appeared on the sky screen.

1. Tai Xu Lin Family: 29 points.

1. Tianyu Lin Family: 29 points.

2. Taichu Holy Land: 26 points.

3. Boundless Sacred Ground: 23 points.

4. Piao Miao Holy Land; 18 points.

5. Reincarnation Holy Land: 8 points.

6. Lu Family: 7 points.

7. Liu Family: 6 points.

8. Qingshan Sect: 5 points.

9. Eastern Sky Dynasty: 3 points.

"Un... Unbelievable!!" Looking at the newly released scores, Liu Xiu couldn't help but gasp.

"Tianyu Lin Family and Tai Xu Lin Family still maintain an absolute lead!!"

"This is too incredible, and now, both Lin Family teams have the same score, so an unprecedented situation has occurred!!"

Liu Xiu stared intently at the refreshed score panel and shouted loudly: "They... are tied for first place!! My god."

"Is this the Lin Family?? From the start of the competition until now, they have consistently maintained an absolute lead!"

"It's truly hard to believe that they are a force from a remote area, and no one could have imagined that such a force could firmly trample all other forces, including the four great Holy Lands, underfoot!"

Liu Xiu's excited words even elevated the already excited emotions of the audience at the scene to another level.

The sound rose and fell, like continuous waves, showing no sign of stopping.

In the direction of Taichu Holy Land, Ying Huanying sighed helplessly: "About this... our ranking did increase by one spot, but in reality, there's still no change."

Ling Xi, who was beside her, also couldn't stop shaking her head: "Cai Lin has worked very hard, but who could have imagined... the Lin Family actually held back such a move, it's truly... beyond reach."

At the Eastern Wasteland First Martial Arts Tournament venue, accompanied by a flash of light.

Lin Yan and the others were teleported back.

As soon as they returned to the venue, Old Qin quickly called for medical personnel to come forward.

After all, Su Ze and Dai Muhei's injuries were somewhat too severe.

They were still in a coma even now, and if not treated soon, there could be danger.

On the side of Reincarnation Holy Land, the air around Wang Xiaogang, Holy Lord of Reincarnation Holy Land seemed to have frozen.

He stared intently at the score panel, the eight points behind Reincarnation Holy Land, like a long sword, pierced his heart.

Although the ranking went from sixth place to fifth place, what difference did it make?

The score difference between them and the forces behind them was only one or two points, but what about the ones ahead?

The gap was huge, it was practically as if Reincarnation Holy Land was the dividing line, and the levels above and below were no longer the same.

In other words, there was no difference between his Reincarnation Holy Land and being at the bottom.

At the bottom...

Wang Xiaogang, Holy Lord of Reincarnation Holy Land clenched his fists tightly. This kind of result had never occurred since Reincarnation Holy Land started participating in the Eastern Wasteland First Martial Arts Tournament.

And all of this...

His gaze looked towards the figures of Lin Yan and Lin Dong in the venue.

It was all because of the Lin Family!

"Heaven and Earth Strange Fire..." he murmured, Wang Xiaogang, Holy Lord of Reincarnation Holy Land's face turned fierce, and he made a move.

He directly leaped down from the stands.

He arrived in the venue: "Wait a minute!!"

Wang Xiaogang, Holy Lord of Reincarnation Holy Land shouted out! Interrupting the proceedings at the scene.

Immediately after, his gaze fixed on Lin Dong and Lin Yan, and he said in a deep voice: "Lin Yan of the Lin Family used external force, which is cheating."

"He even deliberately went for the kill, intending to murder the Genius of our Holy Land!"

"This matter cannot just be let go!"
