Lin Zhizhi wanted Qi Ting to directly send a message to inform the elders of Jianzong that the demon cultivator was here. Since Xuan Hua left, he appeared to be a disciple of the Sword Sect, but in reality he didn't know any of the elders. The only one who is still familiar may be the real Hewei who often peeks at him with envy, jealousy and hatred.
"You told the elders that it is very likely that some pseudo-magic cultivators have appeared in Linye City. The cultivation base is not high, but the cultivation technique is very pure."
Qi Ting was stunned: "How did you know?"
"Because you can't cut him."
"...I'm asking, how do you know that they are magic cultivators?"
"Intuition." Lin Zhizhi was too lazy to explain to him and then involved a lot of things in the secret realm, and casually made a nonsense reason.
"… "
Qi Ting also thought that Lin Zhizhi was deliberately playing tricks on him. He was angry and felt a little wronged for some reason: "You are also a disciple of the Sword Sect, why don't you tell it yourself."
The dark-haired boy's indifferent black eyes were a bit thicker than the night behind him. Lin Zhizhi was now deeply pressed by the big stone that wanted to quickly build the foundation, and he didn't really want to talk. He didn't answer Qi Ting's words at all, so he planned to leave alone.
Xie Ling stopped him and asked anxiously, "Is it true? Brother Lin?"
Linye City is her hometown. If something goes wrong, the girl will be more anxious than anyone else.
Lin Zhizhi nodded hesitantly: "Eighty percent sure."
Unlike Qi Ting, Xie Ling has unconditionally believed in him since the secret realm. Hearing this, he said without hesitation: "Then I will send a letter to Master. It will take about three days to pass the spirit bird at the earliest, and it may be a little late. By then, the ring competition should be finished..."
"Go all out," Lin Zhizhi said.
- He guessed that these few magic cultivators may have come for the pool of water, otherwise this small Linye City would have nothing else to take.
—Maybe there is actually a cave dwelling left behind when a god-turning real person emerged underground? But has never been discovered to future generations
The young master of the Lin family has made excellent use of the accumulation of his childhood (love), learning (seeing), more (small) talent (speaking), and found countless reasons for the purpose of those people coming to Yecheng...
After Xie Ling returned to Xie's house, she dispatched several dead men to observe the Sun and Qian families, and wanted to investigate the movements of those people. I thought they would go out for walks often in the name of walking, but the response was that they had a good time with the two family owners, and after the daily banquet, they returned to the training room to practice with great effort.
She looks like she's going to do her best for the competition.
In addition to being strange, the girl also stepped up her cultivation with her elder brother.
Lin Zhizhi had already established a foundation in half a step. Unless he could completely condense it into a foundation building tower, his usual meditation practice would have no effect. He has been locked in the room for the past few days, all thinking about how to control the mine.
Most of the lightning control tricks that Master gave him before he left were mostly subtle tricks that could only be entered into at the foundation-building stage. With his current half-step foundation, he can only read the most superficial sentences.
As for Qi Ting, he lingered in major auctions every day, spending thousands of spirit stones to buy a lot of one-time talismans and spirit treasures with powerful offensive power.
- His idea is very simple, Lao Tzu's exercises can't get close to him, but Lao Tzu is rich! A talisman can't kill you, so what kind of resistance do you use with a few more? Get a head fight
This method is completely unworkable in the foundation building stage and above, but in the qi refining stage, except for a small number of real cultivation geniuses, it is feasible. After all, with so much white money floating in the sky, anyone would be in a trance for a while.
With everyone's hard work and preparation, the day of the competition came.
Linye City's largest martial arts arena, the crowd was full of people that day, and the people who liked to join in the fun in Linye City filled the arena with water, and only the three major families and those warriors could enter.
The head of the Xie family looked solemn: "Linger, Luer, Luner, remember, the honor of the family rests in your hands. Also, Young Master Lin and Young Master Qi, I'm here to help you all."
Xie Ling and the three nodded solemnly, in stark contrast to Qi Ting's ease.
Lin Zhizhi was still the same old man, not shocked by honor or disgrace, and everyone's demeanor.
The owner then went to draw lots. There is one person on each side, and the final order of draw is: Xie Ling and Sun Hao, Xie Lu and Qianjie, Xie Lun and the young man in the trio, Qi Ting and the enemy's family Lu Zhai met the name of the previous case, causing him to rush to the street on the spot. The man, Lin Zhizhi, was the same middle-aged man.
Xie Ling was the first to play.
The girl is young and beautiful, and the Luo skirt is flying and beautiful, which has attracted the support of many young men in the audience.
-It is worth mentioning that, in the case of seeing the true faces of both sides, except for those who have the burden of family honor, most people are slightly inclined towards the Xie family.
No reason, beauty is justice!
Xie Ling alone can hang and beat the three dull old men on the opposite side, not to mention Lin Zhizhi and the girl formed a mixed doubles.
With the sound of "bang", Sun Hao also took the stage.
Sun Hao is an outstanding disciple of the Sun family. Since childhood, he has worshipped a certain Jiedan Master as his teacher, but it is obviously not as good as Xie Ling, who joined Luoxian Jianzong.
His weapon is a double hammer, and his cultivation is strength, and his momentum is huge. However, he was subdued by the girl's soft colored gauze, and overcome the rigidity with softness, removing the mighty force.
The double hammer hit the side of the field, smashing a deep pit.
Xie Ling was as graceful as a beautiful butterfly. She moved dexterously, leaving Sun Hao helpless. Finally, she seized the opportunity to wrap her waist with colorful yarn and threw it off the high platform.
Xie Ling's victory made the owner's face a little more smile.
The fame of Luo Xian Jianzong was not blown out of vain. It was more than enough to deal with Sun Hao, a man with limited qualifications who failed to join the sect. What really worried him were the three men in black and Qian Jie.
Although Qian Jie's worship is not a large sect, it is a sect that specializes in spiritual thoughts. This sect has a special training technique, which can exercise spiritual consciousness, and can even attack invisible spiritual consciousness! Weird!
The other person had a mysterious origin and a special cultivation technique, so even the patriarch of the Foundation Establishment period could not see through it. Xie Lun would most likely lose. According to the news from a few days ago, that young man named Qi Ting was useless... Only Lin Zhizhi could see.
The next game is Sheru against Qianjie.
This one was really nothing to watch. Just as Xie Lu wanted to do it, Qian Jie had already closed his eyes, activated his spiritual sense, turned it into a knife, and had a fierce confrontation with Xie Lu.
Xie Lu endured the headache and wanted to interrupt Qian Jie's cohesive spiritual thoughts through physical attacks, but he couldn't support it until then.
Sorry to lose.
In the contest between Xie Lun and the black-clothed man, it was as expected by the head of the Xie family. Sharon was completely incapable of outputting against an enemy with amazing defense. On the contrary, he vomited blood and stepped down after receiving a few blows from the opponent.
It is currently two to one.
The heart of the head of the Xie family was almost in his throat. Xie Ling also looked at Qi Ting with nervous eyes.
Next is Qi Ting.
The tendon of the man's left hand was severed, and he had already found a good elixir and connected it. Now, although I can't use force, I can still make some normal gestures. What's more, when he defeated Qi Ting, he didn't use his left hand at all.
He didn't take the initiative to attack, but like before, he cast golden light all over his body, waiting for Qi Ting to make fun of it.
Qi Ting suffered a loss, and did not intend to fight with the man with a knife. He stretched his hand into his arms and plucked it out. Like a goddess scattered flowers, Zhang Zhang Fulu scattered on the man's head.
The opposite was submerged by the talisman, at a loss.
They were detonated one by one, forming a mass of flames composed of spirit stones.
Fireworks rain worth thousands of spirit stones.
Covering the man's entire body, the impact suddenly blew him away.
Qi Ting smiled proudly. This is the safest method he has come up with these days. The real fighting method, I had already tried it that day, but I couldn't beat it at all. Even if Lin Zhizhi abolished one of the opponent's arms, he still couldn't beat him.
- You can't break through other people's defenses at all, how can you fight this
He can only fight for his family life!
Qi Ting was so happy on the stage that he couldn't see his eyes, so he quickly jumped down to ask his junior sister for credit. It's just that Lin Zhizhi observed from the audience that when he fell, the hot-tempered man not only did not have the emotion of "depression, disappointment, anger", but was very calm.
Logically speaking, even the heads of the Qian and Sun families jumped up to protest, but the person who should be most dissatisfied only clenched his fists symbolically.
It doesn't make sense unless... that's what they want.
What good would it be for them to lose
Lin Zhizhi rolled up his long sleeves, jumped onto the stage amid the chaos around him, and waved to the middle-aged man who was as steady as Mount Tai.
Pretty unassuming.
The man wasn't annoyed either, he couldn't see that he was still threatening him with words the day before yesterday. He walked up slowly, and cupped his hands sincerely: "I hope the young man will show mercy."
Lin Zhizhi: "..."
- Uncle, you are setting people up! Wake up! Where is the man who keeps threatening me!
Seeing that the next two candidates have already come to power, they are in charge of the clothes of the three families who are torn apart for the Fu Lu incident under the stage.
The surroundings were quiet again.
The middle-aged man stood on the spot, this time instead of waiting for the enemy to attack like the previous man, he chose to take the initiative. One foot shattered the ground of the high platform, and a sacred golden light shone on his fist, and he swung a fist at the black-haired boy.
Lin Zhizhi didn't use the sword this time. He had the heart to test whether the guy on the other side was bent on losing, and focused on dodging. Feng Yu Jue deftly avoided the opponent's fist, used his two fingers to form a sword, and while breathing out his spiritual energy, he went behind his back and slashed at the enemy's legs.
The opponent's legs are open, avoiding the sword energy, turning around and grabbing the boy's arm, and pulling it vigorously, he will remove the half of the arm.
Lin Zhizhi didn't back down, he hit the opponent's chest with a palm, and the middle-aged man with the body training skills turned pale and was knocked out.
Lin Zhizhi: "..."
—Big brother, isn’t this a bit fake… I don’t know if he thought that he was born with divine power and could knock the body-refining cultivator into the air!
But he knows his own strength, others don't.
Qi Ting was the first to jump up from the stage: "He, why is he so powerful?!"
Lin Zhizhi is a sword cultivator! When a sword-playing cultivator who can fight with his bare hands now vomits blood, is there any truth in this world? So many cultivators are going to cry and bleed, okay? !
The girl's gauze was wrapped around her arms, her face was like a peach, and she finally put her heart back in her stomach.
Brother Lin, it's really reliable.
After winning this competition for the Xie family, the family owner expressed all kinds of gratitude to Lin Zhizhi and the other two, and took out 10,000 spirit stones to buy the remaining quota for Qi Ting, who can also enter the quenching pool. middle.
Sun and Qian's plans fell through, their faces were as black as Bao Gong, and they left on the spot. The three men in black either sighed, or shook their heads, and walked out with mutual support.
****
Body Tempering Pool is the name Linye City calls this pool of water. It is located in the middle of two valleys, with a pool of water. Every year is strangely full of energy that can be used to condense the root bone. When I discovered it, I suspected that there was a cave not far away, deep in the valley. But the years were ruthless, and the door to the cave was tightly sealed. Several patriarchs watched it together and opened a path, but there were no treasures in it.
The head of the Xie family brought ten people to a valley and looked at the quenching pool in the mist of the mountain.
The emerald green is like a fine jasper jade, full of the fresh feeling after the empty mountain and the new rain.
In order to take care of the women, they specially separated a boundary in the body quenching pool. According to the division method of male left and female right, enter from different directions without interfering with each other.
Xie Ling had already been taken to the other side, Lin Zhizhi, Qi Ting and others, after saying goodbye to the Patriarch, also meandered all the way down to the Body Tempering Pool.
The water in the quenching pool is very clear.
It's the kind of... so much that you can see the bottom even if you're submerged in water.
Qi Ting followed the black-haired boy and looked at the snow-white and delicate back of the neck that was exposed between the black hair fluttering as he walked. For some reason, his heart jumped.
-It must be about to successfully soak in a pool of water with junior sister, too nervous, hee hee hee, it must be like this!
Qi Ting clutched his heart, which was beating faster and faster, and accidentally bumped into Lin Zhizhi's back.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
The young master of the Lin family glanced at him and was shocked to realize that there were still such stupid and lovely people in this world. Thinking about it, my father raised me too well - if my father always said that he is not as good as Su Yu, he should show him what Qi Ting looks like! Just know how good you are.
"arrive."
Qi Ting let out an "oh" and saw that the rest of the men had disappeared, thinking that he had taken another path or had already entered the quenching pool. Thinking of this, he quickly took off his shirt, for fear that the opportunity would be robbed by others.
Lin Zhizhi sat on a rock beside the pool, resting his cheek with one hand, watching Qi Ting hurriedly looking like a guest entering the brothel, he spit out a sentence: "Trust me, don't take it off."
Qi Ting froze as he took off his trousers, and subconsciously wanted to say, "Who would believe you?" - but he immediately thought of that night, when his sister's actions were in stark contrast to his own words.
This man... never seemed to miss it.
The languid black-haired boy watched the favorability degree on Qi Ting's head secretly increase by 5.
Qi Ting stopped, looked around and asked, "Did you find something?"
Lin Zhizhi put down his hand, his expression changed, his nerves tensed, like a dangerous cheetah, he stood up and stared at a certain place: "Well, this."
The next second, the overwhelming darkness drowned the two of them.
Qi Ting: You show me this when you take off your pants? !
Being attacked by the sudden darkness, Rao Shi Lin Zhi had been prepared long ago, but he could not avoid losing his vision temporarily. He can't feel the presence of others around him, he can only hear...
There was a loud whistling sound, which was quite infiltrating.
Formation
The young master of the Lin family tried his best to recall the formation books he had read in Master's cave and in the Lin family's library, trying to find the corresponding formation.
Darkness, ghost noises, and then... Bite
Lin Zhizhi only felt a pain in his nerves, as if something had bitten his arm viciously. But his body doesn't feel it, it's the soul that hurts.
This kind of formation moves to attack the soul!
He tried to call out the gleaming Asking Immortal Sword, but he still couldn't see the light! Asking the Immortal Sword can only illuminate the reality, and he is in a ghost formation at this moment.
Lost vision.
Damn, he was careless, and even turned over the same mistake as Qi Ting - overconfidence. The young man's heart, thinking that with the Wenxian sword in his hand, Tian Ke Mo Xiu, did not take too much care.
So much so that he is now trapped in this formation.
Lin Zhizhi closed his eyes and simply released his divine sense to investigate the surrounding environment.
"Ghost spirit!" Just as the ghost scream became more and more shrill, a familiar voice cut through the somewhat terrifying atmosphere.
Astonishingly, the demon spirit woke up from the bailing root.
"Do you know what this is?" Lin Zhizhi asked while resisting the ghost's attack.
"I don't know, I only know a little," the demon licked her lips and answered confidently, "They are delicious."
"… "
Just after I finished speaking, through Bailing Root, the demon spirit with a stable soul floated out, transformed into a hand, picked up a terrifying screaming ghost, stuffed it into my mouth, and smashed it twice.
After swallowing the ghost, its soul power increased a little. These immortal, tortured ghosts trapped in the eyes of the formation can actually be swallowed by it to enhance their power!
Although Lin Zhizhi couldn't see it, he could feel it by listening to the sound. He was silent for a while and said, "Eat more."
At the beginning, the ghost spirits were all weak and small, and the demon spirits took one bite at a time. After regaining some strength, it opened its big mouth quite simply, and a gust of wind swept all the ghosts in front of it into its mouth.
Outside the formation, the middle-aged man who was in charge of controlling the Thousand Ghosts Devouring Gods formation frowned deeply and listened carefully to the sound of the Devil's Cry coming from the formation.
"Why is the voice getting smaller and smaller?" The man with the broken tendon asked suspiciously.
"The number of ghosts is decreasing!" The middle-aged man held the Thousand Ghost Banner in his hand and felt that the souls he had finally collected in this spirit tool had been reduced by half.
"Could it be... That kid also has a treasure that can defeat ghosts?"
Knowing that Lin Zhizhi has the magic weapon of Tianlei, it is difficult to win without revealing his true identity on stage. They simply gave up the competition of real guns and real swords and went behind the scenes. When Sun and Qian sent people in, they quietly turned into shadows and followed in.
They didn't care that Lin Zhizhi knew that they were fake losses, as long as he wanted to come to the Tempering Pool, he had to pass through the formation they had already arranged. Even if the masters came, they would still be trapped inside. I just didn't expect that he also has the magic weapon of swallowing ghosts.
The formation of ghosts is not easy, these are the savings of most of his life, and he has only risen from a hundred ghosts to a thousand ghosts! The ordeal in between was bloody and tearful.
As soon as he gritted his teeth and pinched the magic, he directly released the head of a thousand ghosts, a ghost at the foundation-building stage! Different from human beings, to reach the Foundation Establishment stage, the ghost spirit must at least be in the Pill Formation Stage, or devour no less than five Foundation Establishment cultivators.
He doesn't believe it, the magic weapon of that black-haired boy is endless! Even this foundation-building stage ghost can clean up!
Soon, the demon spirit told him with action: It really can.
At any rate, its predecessor was also the son of the commander, a big demon that could make the ancient immortal look at him.
Seeing this ghost spirit at the foundation-building stage, the demon spirit was not surprised but delighted. It had already swallowed up many ghost spirits and its huge body, and suddenly rushed towards the head of the ghost spirit, opening its mouth and biting off one of the opponent's arms.
The head of the ghost spirit screamed in the sky, trying to shake the demon spirit away. The demon spirit persevered, and took this huge head of a thousand ghosts as a lump of mashed potatoes, and ate it into its stomach one by one.
At the same time as the head of the thousand ghosts was eaten, everyone trapped in the formation returned to reality.
The master of the formation vomited blood, with resentment in his eyes: "How could it be? My ghost - how on earth did you do it?"
The demon spirit floated and sank in the air, and before Lin Zhizhi could speak, it suddenly jumped in front of the middle-aged man: "Don't shout, I swallowed it. In order to thank you for giving me strength, I will help you achieve a desire."
The man suddenly showed a look of joy and pointed at Lin Zhizhi: "Then kill him! You must be enslaved by him, right? Kill him and you will be free!"
Hearing the word "slavery", the demon spirit's anger skyrocketed, and the body of the soul turned into a huge monkey, slapped the middle-aged man with a palm, and pressed him into a meat pie: "I hate hearing this word the most. ."
He said solemnly.
The huge palm swept across, and the two companions of the middle-aged man were also sent on the road. The demon spirit turned into a petite and cute little monkey, and found the Qiankun Ring among the piles of corpses, and handed it to Lin Zhizhi.
Lin Zhizhi looked at it, and the well-known novel in the secular world appeared on the paper. The young man asked tentatively, "... Wukong, is that you?"
Demon Spirit: "..."
