The five-colored divine mountain, blotting out the sky, rumbled as it was hurled towards the Heavenly Curtain God Venerable.
The Heavenly Curtain God Venerable's ultimate strike seemed poised to cleave the void, and its terrifying icy power surged towards Qin Hanchu.
Boom…
The forces of the two collided fiercely, and the terrifying residual shockwaves even caused cracks to appear in the barrier at the edge of the arena!
"So strong!"
"This strike is already comparable to a bare-handed God Emperor!"
"Look, Qin Hanchu has disappeared again!"
"He's trying to stall for time."
"Although this rogue cultivator's realm has improved, his secret techniques are still draining his divine seal power."
"Once his divine seal power dissipates, even if he can still mobilize divine power, it will be useless!"
The aftermath of the collision had already shattered the Heavenly Curtain God Venerable's blockade, allowing Qin Hanchu to utilize the Five Elements Divine Banners to teleport away from his original position.
The Heavenly Curtain God Venerable roared and attacked again, but his secret technique had reached its time limit.
As the last of his divine seal power was worn away, the Heavenly Curtain God Venerable was unwillingly teleported away.
Seeing the Heavenly Curtain God Venerable depart, Qin Hanchu breathed a sigh of relief.
Without the augmentation of the Five Elements Divine Banners, Qin Hanchu would have found it difficult even to secure a spot as a true disciple.
Upon seeing Qin Hanchu's victory, Axiang revealed a smile.
The Heavenly Curtain God Venerable reappeared, glaring at Qin Hanchu with furious eyes.
He had not expected the blessing of Bai Ze to fail in helping him secure victory.
As Gu Tianyi's battle had not yet concluded, Qin Hanchu returned to Axiang's side first.
"I heard Gu Tianyi possesses another top-tier divine artifact called the Wind Thunder Twin Wings. You must be careful," Axiang cautioned.
Qin Hanchu was somewhat astonished: "He has another top-tier divine artifact?"
"I only heard about it, but there's no smoke without fire," Axiang replied.
Qin Hanchu hummed: "That's true, I can only fight my best."
"What a pity."
Axiang glanced at the sky above the Mirror Lake world.
Due to the Azure Moon Goddess, Qin Hanchu was unable to use the God Blood Battle Spear.
Of course, if he could use the God Blood Battle Spear, Qin Hanchu would definitely have gifted it to Axiang.
Gu Tianyi was exceptionally powerful and ultimately concluded his battle with a victory.
Even then, Gu Tianyi had not revealed the Wind Thunder Twin Wings.
"Congratulations to both of you for reaching the finals!"
"Next is your battle for supremacy!"
"As long as you win, you will receive the Ascension Creation Pill!"
"I might as well tell you that besides the Ascension Creation Pill, there is also a hidden reward!"
"And this hidden reward is not inferior to the Ascension Creation Pill!"
"To obtain this reward, fight with all your might to claim the champion's position!"
As the Azure Moon Goddess spoke, the two were sent back into the arena.
As it was the final battle, their arena had become larger.
All eyes fell upon the two of them.
"I didn't expect my final opponent to be a mere rogue cultivator."
"This generation's rogue cultivators are indeed surprising."
"I am quite fond of your Five Elements Divine Banners. Are you interested in selling them to me?" Gu Tianyi asked haughtily, looking at Qin Hanchu.
Qin Hanchu smiled: "It's not impossible to negotiate. If you can meet my price, I'll sell you these Five Elements Divine Banners."
"What do you want?" Gu Tianyi was surprised that Qin Hanchu was willing to sell.
"Fifty God Emperor Profound Pills, one hundred God Emperor Jade Completion Pills, and an ancestral-level divine skill!"
God Emperor Profound Pills are divine pills for the God Emperor realm. Fifty God Emperor Profound Pills could allow a nascent God Emperor to directly enter secluded cultivation to break through to the late God Emperor stage!
Even the Gu Dao Academy could not produce fifty God Emperor Profound Pills at once within a short period, let alone Gu Tianyi, who was a God Venerable.
Even the sect behind Gu Tianyi did not have such resources.
As for the God Emperor Jade Completion Pills, they are divine pills that help peak God Venerables break through to the God Emperor realm.
Generally speaking, ten God Emperor Jade Completion Pills could allow a peak God Venerable to have a chance of breaking through to the God Emperor realm.
Qin Hanchu's demands were clearly unreasonable.
Perhaps only a powerful force like the Gu Dao Academy could afford to purchase the Five Elements Divine Banners with such a price.
However, in the eyes of the experts from the Gu Dao Academy, these Five Elements Divine Banners were only worth an ancestral-level divine skill and some God Emperor Jade Completion Pills.
Qin Hanchu's asking price was exorbitant everywhere.
"You're toying with me!" Gu Tianyi said angrily.
Qin Hanchu replied: "Isn't buying and selling just a matter of one party offering a price and the other buying? If you feel my price is too high, you can abandon the idea."
Gu Tianyi said coldly: "Are you interested in a wager? If you can defeat me, my divine sword will be yours. But if you lose, your Five Elements Divine Banners belong to me."
Qin Hanchu chuckled: "Does your divine sword contain an ancestral-level divine skill?"
Gu Tianyi's lips twitched: "No."
"Since it doesn't, do you think these two stakes are equivalent?"
"I heard you have Wind Thunder Twin Wings. Does it have an ancestral-level divine skill?"
"If it does, you can use it as a stake," Qin Hanchu said with a light laugh.
"You..." Gu Tianyi's gaze turned icy. The Wind Thunder Twin Wings had already merged with him, and it could not be separated.
Qin Hanchu waved his mid-grade divine artifact: "Let the battle begin! I wonder if I am worthy of you using your Wind Thunder Twin Wings!"
This was the final battle, and since Qin Hanchu already knew about his Wind Thunder Twin Wings, Gu Tianyi no longer hid them.
He first put away his top-tier divine sword, and then blue and purple light appeared behind him.
As the light dissipated, a pair of blue and purple wings appeared on his back.
At this moment, Gu Tianyi looked like a birdman, but his appearance was quite striking.
"As you wish!"
Gu Tianyi's wings flapped gently.
Qin Hanchu summoned the Five Elements Divine Banners, and the five banners protected him in the center: "To be preserved until the end, its power must be immense. I imagine it must contain an ancestral-level divine skill!"
"You will naturally find out during the battle!" Gu Tianyi did not answer directly and suddenly charged towards Qin Hanchu.
Although Gu Tianyi possessed two top-tier divine artifacts, he did not use them simultaneously.
As a previous God Venerable had said, using two top-tier divine artifacts at once required double the divine power.
For this reason, it was more advantageous to victory to use only one top-tier divine artifact.
Whoosh!
The Wind Thunder Twin Wings on Gu Tianyi's body suddenly erupted with wind and thunderous power.
As Gu Tianyi flew, he suddenly transformed into a series of afterimages.
None of these afterimages were real.
The real Gu Tianyi had already appeared before Qin Hanchu in an instant!
Two attacks flew out from Gu Tianyi's wings.
Boom, boom…
Before Qin Hanchu could even react, these two attacks had already struck the shield of the Five Elements Divine Banners.
Gu Tianyi's attacks were several times faster than Void God Slash!
Under these circumstances, Qin Hanchu could not even react.
Qin Hanchu hurriedly activated the teleportation of the Five Elements Divine Banners.
However, as the teleportation vortex on the other side just appeared, Qin Hanchu felt a life-or-death crisis.
"Not good!" Qin Hanchu quickly severed the teleportation!
Gu Tianyi's speed was simply too fast; he had already appeared at the other end of Qin Hanchu's teleportation in an instant.
Once he entered the vortex on the other end, he would directly enter the protective shield of the Five Elements Divine Banners.
Although this arena was vast, it ultimately limited the teleportation range of the Five Elements Divine Banners.
It was precisely because of this that Gu Tianyi could instantly reach the other side of the teleportation channel.
