Being the number one person unquestionably among the Qin Clan for many years now, in fact, Qin Taichong's strength was astonishing. Although he was slightly less strong than Xin Wuji, he was at least an elite warrior of the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage. Plus he possessed majestic combat power that allowed him to always attract surges of overwhelming vital energy. Once he entered combat mode, he would explode through an astonishing method.

Therefore, even for someone as proud as Xin Wuji, he had to view Qin Taichong as the greatest potential threat among all those in the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates!

Only, Qin Taichong's advantage was directed at head-on combat and valiant fighting strength. His weakness, also due to his outstanding strength, had caused him to be slightly inferior in terms of mechanisms and scheming.

That Xiao Lù, however, was full of schemes. In fact, he had calculated each step of the trap. As Qin Taichong had stopped the first two waves of attacks, the third wave arrived relentlessly.

Suddenly, the trees from his surroundings had moved and kept bumping in the direction of Qin Taichong.

Qin Taichong felt apprehended inwardly, “What kind of bewitching skill is this?”

However, Qin Taichong was a person with majestic vital energy. He swept with his giant sword and roared, “Open for me!”

With countless flashes of his sword's light and like a roaring wind beast or miserable roar of an angry dragon, under the green light, the trees kept getting slashed into halves.

Among the countless trees, Xiao Lù's figure was hidden inside one of the tree trunks. He held a dagger that shone with a green color as those were the dismal poisonous green lights.

“Go!”

Like a viper, numerous long vines kept wrapping at Qin Taichong continuously. For that green dagger, as Xiao Lù had swayed it casually, it had transformed into the shape of a long vine. As it mixed amongst the numerous long vines, it did was easily concealed.

Qin Taichong, was in a dire circumstance as the long vines from all surroundings had increased to wrap around and contain him. The long vine transformed by that dagger had just come to wrap around his ribs that were his weakest defense.

Qin Taichong was completely unaware that amongst these long vines, there was hidden a poisonous dagger that could take his life!

Xiao Lù laughed, for he was also an expert. How could he not see that for this dagger, Qin Taichong was completely oblivious. He wouldn't even think of evading it.

“Ha ha… What?” Before the smile on Xiao Lù' corner of mouth had the chance to get bigger, suddenly he opened his eyes widely. A burst of meteoric lights shot from the sky. With a flash of an earthy yellow light, it had dropped to Qin Taichong's waist.

Dang!

With a clear clashing sound, that green dagger hit was hit by that earthy yellow light and had transformed back into its original state.

The dagger was still the dagger and the Supreme Dao Shield had turned back to be the Supreme Dao Shield.

“Brother Taichong, grab your whip!” Qin Wushuang whizzed past and grabbed the Supreme Dao Shield that had bounced back with one of his arms. He flung with his right hand and tossed the Fury Dragon Soul Whip at Qin Taichong.

“Junior Brother Wushuang?” When Qin Taichong saw Qin Wushuang, without thinking, he extended his hand to grab the whip. With a stomp, he already jumped out of that encircled attack zone.

Qin Wushuang also flew backwards to drop before Qin Taichong. He glared at one of the giant trees and said coldly, “The one that wounds with a sniping arrow, come out!”

Qin Taichong locked his gaze to the tree trunk of that giant tree and gave an angry roar. “Coarse fellow, would you dare to fight with me head on?”

In between his talk, he flicked his arms and gave out three sword attacks consecutively. Stretched by the sky, three giant shaped sword edges were brushed out to slash at that giant tree trunk.

Xiao Lù had almost succeeded in launching a sneak attack on Qin Taichong, but unexpectedly a calamity had occurred all of a sudden as he evaded and met with hostility. Immediately after, he used the wood attribute to run towards the forest in the far side.

Just when Qin Taichong was about to chase after him, Qin Wushuang called to stop him, “Senior Brother, no need to be in a rush!”

Before Qin Wushuang had finished speaking, suddenly a miserable cry had emerged from the far side. Suddenly, the voice of that Xiao Lù had become immensely painful. “You… you plotted against me?”

A cold voice said indifferently, “If you do not wish to die, immediately activate your transportation plate and get lost. You will die for sure if you do not get the antidote from my colleagues in twenty-four hours.”

Xiao Lù said miserably, “You got me! How do I know which sect you belong to?”

That person said with a cold sneer, “You want to encase my words? When you get out, naturally my colleagues will see your injuries. Are you getting lost or not?”

Xiao Lù felt regretful immensely, yet he was out of options. Feeling full of remorse, he would not have fallen to this trick if he had not become so obsessed in dealing with Qin Taichong.

In terms of using poison, whom had Xiao Lù ever been scared of? However, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. As Xiao Lù thought of Qin Taichong, he never thought that someone else also thought about him.

In this ordeal island, everyone was each other's opponent. The other parties had not promised to not make a move against Xiao Lù, so they were still people to watch out for!

Therefore, the first person that was disqualified on the seventh island was indeed, Xiao Lù, who excelled at using poison!

Qin Taichong was stunned as he stared off in the distance. Qin Wushuang sent his voice, “Senior Brother, let's go!”

Qin Taichong nodded and left quickly with Qin Wushuang.

“Junior Brother Wushuang, hold on,” when Qin Taichong saw Qin Wushuang had strolled randomly, he could not but help to feel somewhat puzzled as he called to stop him.

“Brother Taichong, what?” Qin Wushuang stopped his footsteps.

“Where are we going?” Qin Taichong was somewhat puzzled. “If we walk like this, we will get ambushed or plotted against easily.”

Qin Wushuang said with a smile, “Senior Brother, please trust me, follow me, I promise you we will not get ambushed.”

“Oh?” Qin Taichong laughed. “Junior Brother Wushuang, you are sure?”

“Senior Brother, if I am not sure, how could I have found you?” Qin Wushuang also laughed. “Don't worry, besides Xiao Lù that has left, there are eleven others. The closest one is about five hundred miles from us. This place will definitely be safe. Of course, I have not counted any uncertain factors.”

When Qin Taichong saw him making a show of very much being in earnest, he touched his nose and said with a wry smile, “Junior Brother Wushuang, it's all thanks to you. I almost became the first person disqualified from this seventh island.”

“Senior Brother, the rule is this: people from the same sect can form an alliance, this is our advantage.”

Qin Taichong laughed. “Right, Wushuang, this time we are of the same sect. There are pros and cons. I see when that Xiao Lù targeted me, the others surely would have the same mutual understanding. Certainly they would not allow the Qin Clan to have a clear advantage.”

Qin Wushuang cast away his lips and said with a slight smile, “This is human nature. However Senior Brother, on this island, it's hard to say who is the hunter and who is the prey.”

Qin Taichong raised his thick eyebrows and revealed a joyful expression. “Junior Brother Wushuang, could it be you have some plans?”

Qin Wushuang raised the corner of his mouth and also revealed a calm and confident smile. “Senior Brother, since the current political situation has allowed the two of us to enter this final competition arena, regardless, we must exert our full force to acquire the top places! My goal is for both of us to enter the top four! If possible, I want to take the title of champion!”

Qin Taichong was joyful for rich desire of competition shone from his big eyes. His vital essence had increased rapidly through his eyes.

“Junior Brother Wushuang, exactly how do we execute this?” Qin Taichong asked emotionally.

Qin Wushuang revealed a mysterious smile. “For now, we will do nothing. Let them kill one another. Let's see how many will enter the next island after the seventh island!”

“Do nothing?” Qin Taichong was puzzled. “Since we are to be hunters, why do nothing, could we be waiting for them to hunt us?”

“Senior Brother, they cannot approach us!” Qin Wushuang said confidently. “True hunters will only move last! We are not hunting opponents, but champions!”

When he said this, Qin Wushuang's eyes revealed to be full of confidence. That's right, it would be champion!

Two Supreme Dao Fruits, one combat armor, and one Supreme Dao weapon!

Besides, he will also help Senior Brother Taichong aim for the top four! He would perform the advantage of them joining hands. He would let Senior Brother Qin Taichong to not only enter the top four, but he wanted him to win honorably and majestically.

To put it bluntly, Qin Wushuang's tactic was to sit on the mountain and watch two tigers fight one another. If a snapper and a clam are locked into a fight, it is only to the advantage of fisherman. Of course, the precondition to ensure Qin Wushuang is able to perform this tactic would be the Observant Finger Jade Plate.

Without this magical treasure, it would be impossible for Qin Wushuang to watch the two tigers fight one another while sitting on the mountain. If he could not lock onto the position of the enemy, he would not know when the crisis would appear next.

Each of his opponents that were able to reach this step had possessed unique skills. None of them were here to fill a vacancy. If there was a sneak attack to happen again, no one could promise if they would be fine.

Therefore, the Observant Finger Jade Plate would be crucial.

One must say that Qin Wushuang's tactic was incredibly intelligent and useful. Initially, Qin Taichong still felt somewhat puzzled. However after ten days to half a month, Qin Taichong realized that this Junior Brother Wushuang had indeed, kept surprising him!

One after another, someone was disqualified. They had remained in peace, as if the entire battlefield had almost had nothing to do with them!

After thirty days had passed! The battle of the seventh island had also publicly ended. Although this pass was brutal, bloody, schemes against schemes, only four people had been truly disqualified. They were also taken out by their competitors.

In other words, not a single candidate was disqualified by the danger within the island.

Ten people, ten whole people were left!

It means the ten people that were to enter the eighth island would be the ten candidates to receive the rewards! Regardless the final ranking, these ten people would receive rewards!

The Qin Clan was still alive!

Within the ten people, two had come from the Qin Clan. Naturally, it had become a topic of idle conversation for everyone to discuss enthusiastically.

In the following battle, two people of the same sect held great advantage. Now, there were already some cheering and guessing in secret whether the Qin Clan would gain first and second positions.

Although such cheering was not active, it was already emerging. However, to those sects that had the true gifted talents, they did not accept it as possible.

They were incredibly confident in their disciples. All felt that their sect would gain the championship!

The five totem elite warriors were also at an isolated area discussing this pageant. Chief Xue Chan was the first one to speak, “Xuan Yuan friend, this Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan is truly unexpected. What is with this Qin Wushuang? Where has he come from?”

These people had truly no knowledge of the background of this Qin Wushuang. After all, he had only stepped onto martial arts field for a short amount of time.

Another totem elite warrior gave a long sigh. “The most terrifying part was that from beginning to end, this Qin Wushuang has not made any moves, as if this battle had nothing to do with him. Brother Ba, it seems that most likely, the championship will be won by your people of the Xuan Yuan Mound!”

Xuan Yuan Ba chuckled. “Don't say this. This Qin Wushuang, or Qin Taichong, they do not match with these four super geniuses. To say it bluntly, when Xin Wuji died, I truly felt surprised. Initially, Xin Wuji should be competing for the championship with those four super geniuses. The affairs of the world are truly changeable.”

The transportation formation got activated and they had entered the eighth island. Each time after transportation, Qin Wushuang and Qin Taichong had to be separated momentarily. This was the period where accidents might occur the most between their alliance.

Qin Wushuang took out the Observant Finger Jade Plate and begin to lock onto Qin Taichong's location proficiently. At this moment, his expression suddenly changed.
