The atmosphere on the battle platform was tense, with both challengers and defenders recognized as geniuses by the Dao Palace. Even if ranked at the bottom of the Earth Ranking, they shouldn't be underestimated!

Both of them became mid-level immortal experts in less than a thousand years, indicating their future potential is far beyond this!

Today's duel for the honor of being "number one hundred and eighty-eight on the Earth Ranking" means both sides will show their true skills.

Many cultivators gathered around the Dao Palace's battle platform, eagerly anticipating this clash of geniuses!

The Dao Palace's battle platform is protected by formations, so the duel between two mid-level immortal experts will not affect the cultivators outside the platform. Any fluctuation will be drawn into the void by the formation, ensuring close seats aren't at risk.

At this moment, He Qing is filled with fighting spirit on the battle platform, fiercely staring at Tang Yingxin. This battle will not only decide her crane race's breath soil income for the next decade but also rectify Xiang Beifei's annoying "old hag" nickname!

Phew!

He Qing transformed into a swift light, charging at Tang Yingxin in an instant!

Her speed was swift, and her posture exquisite; the crane race has always been elegant in appearance, which He Qing embodies perfectly.

In the eyes of many, He Qing, with her tall slender frame and long legs, is a goddess of beauty and talent. Even in battle, every movement is graceful, with even her flowing hair appearing gentle.

However, despite He Qing's elegant appearance, her attacks were nothing short of fierce!

Boom!

Countless crane feathers transformed into sharp offensives, encircling Tang Yingxin from all directions!

This attack merged into the void yet carried overwhelming power, leaving no room for Tang Yingxin to evade.

But Tang Yingxin was not flustered, still looking at He Qing with a mocking expression.

"You won't cry until you see the coffin; the crane race is a lower race before our Avian Clan! Because I understand your power!"

A powerful force suddenly surged from Tang Yingxin's body, as Flying Bird Dao techniques transformed into stars, emitting a powerful pressure across the battle platform!

He sneered, full of confidence in his Flying Bird Dao techniques. Against other clans, this might not be much or grant him any advantage, but against the crane race, it's different.

Flying Bird Dao techniques absolutely suppress the Dao embryos of the crane race!

He could already foresee He Qing's attacks being shattered under this absolute suppression!

Simultaneously, He Qing's attacks arrived as expected, with crane feathers like a storm pelting down on Tang Yingxin's Flying Bird Dao formation!

These feathers seemed to pierce through the void, instantly stirring up enormous spiritual power waves on the battle platform!

"Break for me!"

Tang Yingxin sneered!

The barrier formed by the Flying Bird Dao techniques in the air immediately surged against these crane feathers, relying on the suppression of bloodlines to make them retreat without a fight, pushing He Qing into despair!

Yet at this moment, Tang Yingxin's expression suddenly changed!

The crane feathers seemed to ignore his Flying Bird Dao techniques, piercing through the formation's oppression as if they were invincible, swiftly closing in on Tang Yingxin.

"What's happening?"

The mocking expression on Tang Yingxin's face hadn't completely faded when he suddenly felt something was wrong!

Phew! Phew!

He Qing's figure dashed over, appearing in front of Tang Yingxin in an instant, as sharp feathers jabbed fiercely into Tang Yingxin!

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Sharp crane feathers exploded into clouds of blood mist on Tang Yingxin, blood splattering everywhere in an instant!

Pfft! Pfft!

"Ah..."

Tang Yingxin screamed repeatedly!

The crane feathers not only bombarded his body but also struck his soul!

The immense pain nearly knocked the wind out of him, but his mind was more filled with disbelief!

He couldn't comprehend what had happened!

To be sure, Tang Yingxin had been confident that his Flying Bird Dao techniques could obliterate He Qing's attack, and hadn't even attempted to defend, only to find himself almost turned into a sieve!

When he regained his sense, He Qing's figure floated over lightly, her long legs deftly kicking him in the face, sending him flying!

Nevertheless, Tang Yingxin was proud but, after all, still a mid-level immortal expert. As he was kicked away, he immediately reacted, his whole body trembling with spiritual power, as countless wing specters flashed behind him.

Look closely, and you'd find these wing specters were from a variety of magical birds, including eagle wings, crane wings, swallow wings, sparrow wings... As if surrounded by countless wings in an instant, they immediately stabilized his balance.

The Avian Clan's strongest ability is body control, as they can mimic the wings of all birds and even imitate the unique abilities of other birds!

Tang Yingxin barely stabilized his footing, yet looked extremely embarrassed; in his heedlessness, he had suffered greatly!

"How is it possible? How are you unaffected by the Flying Bird Dao techniques?"

Tang Yingxin abruptly raised his head, staring at He Qing intently.

The Flying Bird Dao techniques have no offensive capability, nor any defensive capability; they are completely ineffective against non-bird race Dao embryos but can inherently suppress bird race Dao embryos, with the emitted spiritual power nullifying all attacks!

Under normal circumstances, He Qing's attacks would be heavily countered by him, unable to inflict any harm.
