Omnipotent Overlord

Chapter 224: Ancient Battleground

Oldies wild forest stretched for miles upon miles, surpassing the groups imagination. Li Mo and Du Fei had many times jumped overhead to see the situation, but even Celestial Eye couldnt see the edge. 

Three hours into their journey, dark clouds were looming. The downpour started and forced them to find shelter near thick trees.

The rain was coming down so strong and fast that in but half an hour, the ground vanished under a meter of water.

While they were sitting on the back of the dinosaur, Li Mo wrote a dozen of water repelling talismans to keep the rain away. 

The dozen talisman formed an umbrella, shielding them from the downpour. 

But the water kept rising, all the way up to three meters

Du Fei, Ning Xin, and the panda were ashen. This was no rain to them, but a flood.

The rain didnt let up for ten hours, raising the water level to a maximum of six meters. All that water turned into a large river, but it didnt flow fast at all, making it seem more like a lake.

Suddenly, a three meter long fish jumped, scaring Du Fei.

Then another followed after it.

It was an entire school of fish. 

Li Mo laughed, It looks like rain is common on this planet.

The water left as fast as it came, revealing solid ground once again an hour later.

The clouds cleared, and two suns shined above.

Wheres the fish?

Du Fei saw no trace of them anywhere.

Dong~

The huge dinosaur mount was chewing grass as it rode forward. 

Two days later, they arrived at the ancient battleground made up of a huge rock.

On his journey here, Li Mo had seen no less than thirty monkey villages. And only because of the constant memory searching did they found the right spot where the ancient battleground laid.

Yet there was no guard around. The ancient battleground was a hallow ground for them, but not something to protect.

Common monkeys couldnt just waltz in, only those like Yi Yijiu and Liang Yier were allowed.

What point was guarding it when only the strongest monkeys could use it?

Li Mos group entered the ancient battleground. It looked like a huge rock from the outside, and inside, three hovering Gates.

On top of the Gates, a character appeared. It was written in the common language of the universe, signifying its level, yellow, profound, and earth. 

Of the heaven, earth, profound and yellow, the last one was the lowest level.

Bro Mo, we can go in?

Li Mo nodded, being the first to enter the yellow Gate.

Inside the yellow level Gate was a world filled with stars. Above them was an impossibly big projection, showing the current fight in the battleground.

It was between a black bull and a white tiger.

The black bull and white tiger were normal sized, but the power they unleashing was anything but. They were fighting on a mountain. The bull charged head first, crumbling a cliff, while the white tiger swiped, bringing down a twenty odd meter tall rock by itself as well.

Du Fei was stunned, What are they? How are they so freakish

They are a devil bull and a demon tiger, both capable of impressive feats of strength. If you ever meet one like them who is your equal in power, remeber to never go head on.

To participate, you need to form a spiritual qi mark to exchange for a badge.

Roar~

As they talked, the match came to a close, with the black bull nailing the white tigers chest with its horn into the mountainside.

Whoosh~

The white tiger vanished in a blue smoke.

Du Fei cried, Its not real?

Yellow and profound levels are never real. You wont die even if you lose, but will drop a part of your cultivation. And if you keep loosing, becoming an average man is only natural.

The ancient battleground existed since the time of the ten sacred beasts. Any race that could make a spiritual qi mark could take part.

With Li Mos help, Du Fei formed a spiritual qi mark, releasing it into the projection. Soon after, a yellow badge flew out into Du Feis hand.

Yellow level, blank badge?

Write your name, or a nickname. The badge will bind to your soul, then you can use it to join the fighting.

Ill try.

Du Fei pictured in his head and the blank badge had two words written on it, Flying Immortal.

The badge began flying about and bathing Du Fei in a glowing yellow light.

Under its cover, no one from outside could discern his real identity.

I want a match

Whoosh~

Before he could finish, a white light came off him and formed a projection in his view.

Words appeared on it.

Flying Immortal, unranked, vs, Demon Cat765, early 2nd stage.

Li Mo went through the setting to make the battle show on the big screen and watched as it shifted to a plain. The contestant changed to Du Fei and a catwoman with cat ears and claws. 

The catwomans face looked stiff, just like Du Feis. With how his face and appearance changed, if he didnt know Flying Immortal was Du Fei, Li Mo wouldnt have recognized him.

Every time one entered the battleground, ones appearance changed, making it hard to know their race. This was a rule of the ancient battleground since time immemorial, to prevent cheating and unforeseen accidents.

Madam Ning stood next to Du Feis real body in worry.

Relax, he wont die even if he loses, nor will he be harmed. His only damage will be the loss of some cultivation.

Madam Ning eased up.

Du Fei and the cat womans match started.

Meow~

The cat woman flashed at Du Fei with her claws, ripping him to pieces.

Hum~

In a blink, Du Fei was back in one piece.

Despite the one entering the match wasnt the real Du Fei, the Sacred Light Physique was still in effect.

Meow~

The cat woman attacked again, leaving Du Fei sprawled everywhere.

Hum~

Du Fei was whole once again.

Meow~

W-why isnt he attacking? Madam Ning spoke.

Li Mo smiled, He wants to, but the cat womans too fast

Meow~

Du Fei kept falling apart and being stitched together. On the fifteenth time, the cat woman slowed down. Finding his chance coming, Du Fei launched Brilliant Fist, blasting the cat woman into the ground.

The match ended and a white light flew into Du Feis main body. Du Fei screamed.

Any wound in the match was the same as a real wound on the body.

God, it hurts! Ahhh~
