Chapter 1340 - Earth Bellow
Competition on the first six levels wasn't fierce; it mostly devolved into scrappy brawls to get ahead. Relying on the Moon Tribulation Incineration Array, Liu Wuxie shook the Grand Unity Sect, slowed the demon clan and the abyssal race, and reached the fifth level first.
Without that array, Liu Wuxie wouldn't have advanced this smoothly. He had little chance against Mu Qingshan alone, much less the hordes from the demon clan and the abyssal race.
The demon clan marched in a dust cloud and closed in behind Liu Wuxie. Without the array's interception, they would surely have reached the gate in the first wave.
Forced into the second wave, the demon clan and the abyssal race fumed and poured all their resentment onto Liu Wuxie.
Heatwaves rolled toward Liu Wuxie as the rakshasa clan swept in, gliding through the air. They loosed a storm of arrows that hissed through space and materialized at his back, battering other humans as well.
At the last Myriad Race Ceremony, the rakshasa clan took first in the Divine Sun-Shooting Tower. The demon clan and the abyssal race had also won in past years; between them, the three races have practically monopolized the first place.
The arrows closed fast. With no time to dodge, he cast the Great Spatial Mythical Art and froze them in place.
The arrows missed, but still hindered the humans, slowing even Liu Wuxie. The demon clan and the abyssal race seized the opening to close the gap, their powerful physiques letting them shrug off most of the spatial suppression.
Meanwhile, the humans felt heavier suppression and held back, afraid to burn through their true essence.
When Vanya's group reached the fifth level, they followed Liu Wuxie's instructions and found a place to rest. In any case, it was too late to push for the sixth.
Most humans halted on the fifth level, the usual limit for ordinary Primal Origin Realm cultivators. The sixth would strain the body, and the seventh's suppression would target the primordial spirit.
Anyone with a weak primordial spirit risked having the soul sea crushed outright. When the sixth-level gate appeared, everyone eased their pace again.
