《Heaven's Devourer》Chapter 1693: A Direct Blow
Advertisement
No one had expected to witness this scene.
Peach Cloud Fairy had gained the upper hand and victory was within her grasp. However, Wu Yu had suddenly exploded with new found strength and knocked the Peach Cloud Fairy out in one hit?
Wu Yu would naturally not let go of such a good opportunity.
"Bedlam of Heaven and Earth!"
Wu Yu twirled his Ruyi Jingu Bang once again and slammed it onto the unconscious Peach Cloud Fairy. With this knock, her entire body was sent flying out. This terrifying strength actually shook the void as well!
If Wu Yu had not held back at the last minute, this Peach Cloud Fairy was likely to be severly injured by this hit.
Even so, this was not a light smack. Within a breath of time, she regained consciousness only to feel an intense pain shooting through her body. It felt as though she had been beaten up badly by someone.
And she realised that she was laying outside the battlefield. Wu Yu had actually taken the chance to blast her out of the battlefield. She had lost!
"Despicable!"
Peach Cloud Fairy endured the sharp pain in her body and glared murderously at Wu Yu. Her expression was twisted with rage.
Her Great Eastern Emperor Sword was still afloat beside her. She wanted to wield it and continue the battle but was stopped by the immortal emperor behind her.
"Wu Yu is victorious in this battle. He enters the top four!"
With Limitless Confusion Immortal Emperor's announcement, Wu Yu had become the first of the eight to enter the semi-finals. The last blow to her head had caused Peach Cloud Fairy to faint for some time and that was the key factor leading to Wu Yu's victory.
No one had expected the battle to conclude in this way. Peach Cloud Fairy had been suppressing Wu Yu easily from the start of the battle. However, at the end, Wu Yu had unexpectedly managed to turn the tide and retaliate. Peach Cloud Fairy was caught offguard and blasted out of the battlefield, resulting in her loss.
Peach Cloud Fairy was still bewildered and refused to accept that she had lost to Wu Yu, a despicable unruly pheasant.
Her entire body was wrecked with pain at the moment and she was at her pain threshold. In reality, if such a degree of pain was executed on Wu Yu, he would not even frown. This was the largest difference between them.
Peach Cloud Fairy had basically never encountered any setbacks ever since she started cultivating. Injuries were rare and even in the occasion that she got injured, she had never been so "seriously" injured.
To Wu Yu, he had been light on Peach Cloud Fairy at the last moment. Otherwise, Peach Cloud Fairy would truly be heavily injured and at the brink of death.
In Wu Yu's opinion, this Peach Cloud Fairy was only lightly injured but to herself, this was the saddest state that she had been in for her entire life. The pain that shot through her body almost caused her knees to buckle and her to fall.

She had never felt such pain before. Compared to the pain from her body, the defeat and blow to her mind and spirit was even worse.
She had thought that victory was guaranteed but she actually lost to Wu Yu?
The audience was equally shocked and the cheers only erupted from the immortal emperors when Wu Yu left the battlefield and returned to the spectator stands. These cheers naturally came from the immortal emperors from Mettle Sky.
Everyone had thought that Wu Yu was sure to lose this battle. Who would have thought that the situation would reverse in this manner?
"Ha ha ha! I said it, Old Wu had never lost to an opponent from the same cultivation realm. There will be no exceptions in future as well. Didn't I say it? He's now in the top four?" Full Moon of Nanshan guffawed and waved his fan lightly, acting all cool.
The few Patriarch Bodhi's disciples who had approached them laughed too.
No matter what, it was already an impressive result to enter the semi-finals. It was inconsequential whether or not Wu Yu could get the first place. To them, Wu Yu had not only proven himself but also proved that mortal-born immortals were not worse off than those immortal emperor descendants. In fact, they were superior!
"From the top four to the finals, he will only meet stronger opponents. It is unlikely that he can get the first place. Whether it is Yang Qiang, or Li Tianji, or others, they are too horrifyingly strong." The few Patriarch Bodhi's disciples started to discuss softly and none of them thought that Wu Yu stood a chance in the later battles.
No matter what, Wu Yu's defeat of Peach Cloud Fairy was a blow to the immortal emperor descendants' camp.
This meant that four of the immortal emperor descendants would be eliminated in this round. Wu Yu's ranking as part of the final four was a humiliation for the immortal emperors in the sky palaces.
"This brat, fuck!"
When the result was out, Dong Hua Great Emperor Lord's face turned icy cold. He had never expected Wu Yu to reverse the situation at the last minute and even "severely injured" his daughter.
Ever since her birth, he could not even bear to hit his precious daughter at all. Yet she was injured by Wu Yu today!
He glared furiously at Wu Yu.
There was no doubt that Wu Yu had defeated his daughter. So, he hated Wu Yu now. He had ignored the fact that the competition was fair and in any competition, one must be prepared to lose. Otherwise, why bother joining?
He did not say much but started healing Peach Cloud Fairy.
Even as Peach Cloud Fairy was being healed, she was discontented and kept cursing Wu Yu. In fact, after being healed, she immediately ran to Li Tianji.
"Tianji, if you meet Wu Yu, beat him up and teach him a lesson!" Peach Cloud Fairy was fuming.
"Peach Cloud Fairy, are you alright?"

Li Tianji was infuriated too. While he liked Luo Pin, he had already thought of both Peach Cloud Fairy and Happy Fleece Fairy as his women.
He liked Luo Pin but that did not mean that he would abandon these two other women. He just wanted one more woman. To him, three women were nothing.
However, now Wu Yu had actually beat up one of his women. How could he endure this humiliation?
"His hit was so painful. That guy is a despicable asshole and hit me brutally!" Peach Cloud Fairy whined and complained about Wu Yu again.
"Fairy, don't worry. I, Li Tianji, will let Wu Yu have a taste of my power and force him into desperation if I meet him in battle!" Li Tianji snorted coldly and shot Wu Yu a murderous look.
He wanted to fight Wu Yu for a long time, but the Patriarch Bodhi's Wheel of Taichi did not match him up with Wu Yu.
This made him a little angry. In his opinion, as long as he could compete against Wu Yu, he could easily defeat Wu Yu and eliminate him. Otherwise, how else could Wu Yu be able to act so proudly in the Immortal Emperor Trials for so long?
It was simply a matter of luck, but in the end, luck was not in his favour.
Li Tianji had strong confidence in entering the top four. His goal was to be number one, so no matter who his opponent was, he was not too bothered.
As long as he entered the semi-finals, the possibility of meeting Wu Yu was very high. At that time, he would teach Wu Yu a good lesson.
The immortal emperor guests basically expressed support and encouragement to Dong Hua Great Emperor Lord and Peach Cloud Fairy, and comforted them. At the same time, many immortal emperors were very unhappy with Wu Yu. Who had allowed him to use the last move to "bully" Peach Cloud Fairy?
In short, their descendants could bully others.
But no one could bully their descendants!
Otherwise, what was the use of their painstaking efforts in climbing up the ranks in the sky palaces?
Was it not for the benefit of one's own offspring?
The competition to enter the semi-finals continued. Wu Yu returned to the spectators stand with the rest of the audience to continue watching the battles. From time to time, some senior brothers would come over to congratulate him and express their appreciation for his performance.
Wu Yu responded to each of them. These immortal emperors were also Patriarch Bodhi's disciples and were on his side.
However, although these immortal emperors all came to congratulate him, Wu Yu could see from their eyes that these senior brothers were not optimistic about his next fight.
As the battle for the top four gradually came to an end, the final candidates for the semi-finals were basically confirmed. In addition to Wu Yu who took the lead in defeating Peach Cloud Fairy, the other participants to enter the top four were True Lord Erlang's son, Yang Qiang, and Lotus Prince Nezha's son, Li Tianji.
The last to enter the top four was Jiang Taiji, the son of the Central Ecliptic Great Yellow Horn Immortal. He was also very powerful. In fact, in Wu Yu's opinion, Jiang Taiji was a good match for both Yang Qiang and Li Tianji as well. If Wu Yu met him in the semi-final, he would have to be careful too.
Wu Yu, Yang Qiang, Li Tianji, and Jiang Taiji.
The gathering of the top four meant that the Immortal Emperor Trials had basically reached the final stage. There were still three more rounds left, and they would find out who would be in the first place for the Immortal Emperor Trials.
The first in the Immortal Emperor Trials would be able to step into the Everlasting Battlefield and would very likely be able to breakthrough and become an eternal immortal emperor.
If the opportunity was lost this time, even if these immortal emperor descendants possessed ample resources, it would be at least another hundreds of thousands of years before they could reach the immortal emperor cultivation realm.
Even though time meant nothing to immortal emperors.
The key was that when one became an eternal immortal emperor, he would truly achieve immortality.
As for those who failed to seize the chance to get the first place in the Immortal Emperor Trials, they were at risk of suffering an accident and losing the opportunity to become an eternal immortal emperor forever. When that happened, they could only wait for their lifespan to run out and perish.
Therefore, even those immortal emperors in the sky palaces were very concerned over who got the first place in this trial.
The audience could get some clues from the semi-final battles and guess who was likely to win the first place.
After a year, the Immortal Emperor Trials had finally reached the most critical moment.
The battle among the top four was finally beginning!
Wu Yu, Yang Qiang, Li Tianji, and Jiang Taiji. And their friends and families all became serious. At this stage, it was important who would become their opponent as any unfortunate match up would cause them to lose the chance to be the first place.
There was no doubt that Wu Yu was the easiest to fight of the top four.
On the stage, Yang Qiang, Li Tianji and even Jiang Taiji were all staring at Wu Yu. Obviously all of them hoped that they would be matched up with Wu Yu. This would greatly increase their chance to enter the finals.
Everyone had watched Wu Yu's battle with Peach Cloud Fairy and knew that he was basically suppressed right from the start. If not for his sudden explosion of power at the end of the battle, there was no way that he could enter the top four.
Hence, to the other three, it was mutually agreed that Wu Yu was the weakest.

When Plush comes to Shove
An: So the last synopsis wasn’t really all that good, it was just some mumbo jumbo with no actual point to it so I decided to make a new one that’s a bit more accurate. Leo Lush, just your average everyday (slightly chubby) schmuck, or at least he would be if he didn’t carry around a stuffed toy everywhere he went.I mean, he was a man who could read the atmosphere a bit so put it away in his bag whenever having a stuffed toy out would be rude but other than that he brought it with him all the time, it was a memento from his girlfriend who had died three years ago and keeping it close made him feel better. That’s also why his classmates gave him the nickname “Plush”, though that's neither here nor there. One day at the train station he’d lost his dearest stuffed toy, one of his classmates found it and lobbed it towards him, something that they’d already done many times before, but this time something went wrong and Leo found himself falling in front of the train due to the force of the throw. Now follow Leo as the spirit that developed in his stuffed toy and killed him forces his ghost into another world to possess a different stuffed toy. He doesn’t know much about the world or why he’s there but what he does know is that according to a magic book his girlfriend was also sent to this very world when she died in a plane accident three years ago. An: For those who want to know a bit more about what kind of story this will be: I want it to be a chill feel-good story and stay as far away from those despair-fest stories as possible (No offense to people who enjoy them, I’m just not one of you)Let me make something clear; I’m not writing this story with hope of it becoming really top tier among RRL (Though it did get above rank 500 once which I’m still very proud of even though it’s gone back down to ~850 at the time of writing this) I just want to write a story that I would enjoy reading, that’s why I’ll be mostly skipping over a lot of the parts that I skip when I read other stories, such as stats, the exact value of money and other such precise statistics that no one(as far as I’m aware) really cares about all that much. Just feels like a lot of effort for something superfluous.There’s a single exception and that’s one of the battles, it’s not a despair-fest or anything but it’s got a different feel than the rest of the story due to me being in a funky mood while I was writing it.
