Gong Yuantai took the detoxification pill in his hand. Li Yan didn't need it anymore, so there was no need to do him a favor.
He slapped his waist with his other hand, and a black pill as big as a baby's fist floated in front of him.
Gong Yuantai's face was solemn, and he whispered, "Junior Brother Li, be careful. If you feel something is wrong, don't resist!"
The disciples of Laojun Peak are good at making elixirs and medicines, and usually their poisons are better than herbal elixirs.
Gong Yuantai stretched out a finger and lightly touched the black pill in front of him. The black pill spun in the air, and in an instant the area of ten feet in radius turned into a small independent space without light.
Li Yan only felt a flash before his eyes, and he was already in a city. The city walls were as black as iron, and the sky was a little dark. He was standing on a street at the moment.
This street felt particularly familiar to Li Yan. It was the main road in Lijia Village at the foot of the mountain where he grew up.
But how could this mountain village in my hometown end up in a city and become a street
Looking at the people coming and going on the street and the familiar faces, Li Yan suddenly lost track of where he was.
"Uncle Guoxin, Third Fatty Sister, Li Shan, Li Yu", and "Third Brother, Dad?"
These people were smiling at him, waving at him, and talking to him, but Li Yan couldn't hear what they were saying for a moment.
For a moment, Li Yan felt a little dazed, but at this moment, he only felt a force of attraction arising from his chest and lower abdomen.
Then all the scenery and people in front of him became vague and unreal, and the villages and streets were stretched and distorted in front of his eyes, as if they were about to be sucked into his body.
The words of his relatives suddenly disappeared without a trace, and the faces twisted and deformed along with the surrounding scenery, constantly changing before his eyes, even intertwining together, becoming unrecognizable to him.
"Phantom poison!"
Li Yan reacted immediately and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. At this moment, he felt a strong wind sweeping towards the back of his head.
Li Yan snorted lightly, stepped on the ground, and disappeared mysteriously. Gong Yuantai's palm flashed with spiritual power, and he slapped the place where Li Yan had just stood.
Then he raised his head in surprise, a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Behind him, Li Yan was staring at him coldly, and he also raised a palm. Black light surged on his palm like a long snake spitting out its core, only a few inches away from the back of Gong Yuantai's head.
"How did you find out?"
Gong Yuantai asked in disbelief. He didn't expect that when he saw Li Yan's dazed expression, he immediately took action, but the other party woke up in an instant. This was too unreasonable.
"Brother Gong's phantom poison is a hundred times more powerful than the one I used before. My phantom poison can only make the opponent's mind a little blurry and he will be in and out of his mind.
But Senior Brother Gong has been able to integrate a city illusion into a small pill, and has been able to make the opponent, after being tricked, imagine the most familiar scene in this empty city and fill it in. This is really brilliant!"
Li Yan said with a seemingly calm expression, if it wasn't for the fact that his "Fragmented Poison Body" was stronger than the opponent's phantom poison and awakened it immediately, he would have almost fallen into Gong Yuantai's trap.
In fact, he was already feeling a little gloomy in his heart. If the opponent's phantom poison was more advanced, he could even see through his weaknesses and many of his secrets. Just thinking about it made him feel cold to the bone.
"Brother Gong's 'Heavenly Palace Black City' has also been breached. Could it be that this Junior Brother Li has cultivated the Buddhist 'Heavenly Eyes' or the Taoist 'Heavenly Eyes'? Otherwise, how could he have set up an ambush to counter Brother Gong!"
The disciples of the Wuliang Sect who knew Gong Yuantai in the rear were even more confused about Li Yan's cultivation level. They even thought that Li Yan had already seen through Gong Yuantai's methods and used them as a trap.
Although the other cultivators did not know what kind of poison Gong Yuantai's black pill contained, when they saw Li Yan's dazed expression, they knew that he must have been poisoned. However, the result was beyond their expectations.
"This fellow Daoist Li Yan's poison skills should be even better. Up to now, he has only been defending and not attacking. He has broken all of Gong Yuantai's attacks one after another." Someone commented in a low voice.
"This is natural. Since ancient times, no matter what kind of fighting method, defense is the most difficult."
As everyone was discussing, Gong Yuantai in the field put away the surprise on his face and slowly regained his composure.
In a drug fight, one only looks at the result and one cannot ask the other party how they cracked the drug. Just now he was just surprised and asked the question subconsciously.
"Just now, Senior Brother was obsessed. Junior Brother Li is not affected by the 'Heavenly Palace Black City' at all, but don't use such an excuse to comfort me. If you can solve it, then it's solved."
After saying that, he slowly stood up straight, not caring at all whether Li Yan behind him would continue to attack.
He waved his sleeves, and the black pill that was still spinning in the air and the surrounding pale green mist disappeared in an instant.
Seeing this, Li Yan took a step back and put his hands away. His expression showed neither joy nor sadness, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Gong Yuantai then turned around and bowed to Li Yan, "Junior Brother Li, there is no need for me to compete anymore. You win."
When Gong Yuantai said this, except for Li Yan, those who were watching the excitement were in an uproar. Several monks from the Wuliang Sect behind him couldn't help but speak out.
"Brother Gong, you were the one who attacked just now, and you haven't yet learned from Brother Li's tricks, so I think it won't be difficult to break them." In their hearts, they thought that although Li Yan was good at detoxification, he might not be able to defeat others. "Brother Li had already used the poisoning method to perfection in his "Quick Sand Technique", and Brother Gong only attacked and didn't defend just now, so the outcome of the next poison battle is unknown."
Those who were watching the fun wanted to take a closer look at Li Yan's poison skills.
Listening to the conversations around him, Gong Yuantai waved his hand.
"Just now, Junior Brother Li was not affected by my two poisons at all, especially the second time. Although we agreed to a poison fight, it was not really a one-on-one fight. When I wanted to capture him, he counterattacked me, and I had already lost."
Although Gong Yuantai felt that he might not really lose, he still had two more powerful poison techniques in his hands that he dared not use. However, those two poisons were simply not suitable for poison fights between fellow disciples.
Once he starts to use it, he will not be able to control it. If things go wrong, not only will Li Yan die, but many cultivators present may also be killed or injured.
But he didn't want to be gossiped about in public, especially in his mind, Li Yan had already broken through the illusion of "Black Sky City" long ago, and people had taken the opportunity to set a trap for him, so he also had his dignity.
At the same time, he was also much more wary of Li Yan. If Li Yan attacked again, he was unsure whether he could withstand Li Yan's next poison technique.
If the fact that Li Yan easily broke his "Misty Green Air" the first time and he himself was not affected at all already made Gong Yuantai cautious.
The second time Li Yan launched a counterattack without leaving any trace, Gong Yuantai, who had already begun to feel resentful towards Li Yan, became even more worried.
Especially how Li Yan got behind him in the end, Gong Yuantai still hasn't figured it out. He doesn't know if it was because he was too surprised to react, or if the other party's body skills were so powerful that it was unbelievable, leaving him no time to maneuver.
How could he know that the tiny distance between the two of them just now had already allowed Li Yan to restrain the speed of his "Feng Chongtian" movement to a great extent.
In the moment of clarity, Li Yan could even go directly behind Gong Yuantai and kill him, and then return to his original place, confident that he would not be discovered by anyone here.
Li Yan, who had really wanted to take action to test Gong Yuantai, showed a smile on his calm face after hearing his words. Regardless of whether it was true or false, he knew that there were several spiritual senses watching them from above, and now it was enough to achieve the goal.
"It was just luck. Thank you, Senior Brother Gong, for letting me."
Then Li Yan looked around at the remaining monks and said, "I came here on orders. If there is another Taoist from Team Qing 16 who wants to learn from him, I will be happy to accompany him.
It’s just that I’ve been fighting so many times and I’m a little tired. If I can’t control my strength, I’ll be left with nothing.”
As soon as Li Yan said this, apart from the monks standing at the courtyard wall who were watching the excitement and laughed softly, many people from the Youth 16th Team in the courtyard turned ugly.
Everyone understood the meaning of Li Yan's words, which was that he didn't want to continue fighting like this. If anyone continued to provoke him, he would attack without mercy.
However, if you think about it from Li Yan's perspective, there are indeed many people who want to give this kind of fight that does not hurt anyone's life a try. In their opinion, Li Yan might really be defeated by them in a fight.
As soon as Li Yan finished speaking, Bro's voice rang out.
"It has come to this point, let's not compete anymore. If anyone wants to challenge Fellow Daoist Li again, Qiao Baiye and I both admitted defeat just now.
That means someone thinks he is much stronger than the two of us, so why not fight with me and Qiao Baiye first?"
When he said this, many people rolled their eyes in their hearts, "You really think you are a big shot."
But when I thought of Bro's terrifying magic weapons and some people who knew Bro's origins, I simply kept silent.
"You are you. What does it have to do with me if they challenge Brother Li to a competition?" Qiao Baiye's face became increasingly ugly.
Although he said this, his eyes swept towards the people behind him. Bro's words somewhat hit the nail on the head. He couldn't compete, so naturally he didn't want anyone else to fight with Li Yan again.
Gong Yuantai also looked at his group and waved his hand again, "That's it, no need to fight anymore."
He was also a man who had experienced many accidents. It was already a great favor that the higher-ups sent Li Yan to let them fight like this. If they had to fight in a round-robin battle, he and others would probably not have a good ending.
Li Yan can arrange them to another team at will. Those who disobey orders will definitely be sent to the most dangerous place on the battlefield.
Although Gong Yuantai's master is also an elder of Laojun Peak, his status is far inferior to Wei Chongran's. What's more, above Li Yan is one of the few Nascent Soul ancestors of the Wuliang Sect.
The immortal cultivators have a strict hierarchy, and he is taking a huge risk if he can even slightly challenge the rules.
Among the second group of people, a small number of people didn't say much from beginning to end. Those people were basically independent cultivators, who were much more shrewd than Gong Yuantai and his friends, and they were just watching the show.
After a while, no one stood up, which basically meant they had accepted the decision.
Seeing this, Li Yan clasped his fists towards the monks at the courtyard wall and said, "Dear fellow Taoists, please do as you please! The team still has something to ask, so I'm sorry I can't see you off!"
The cultivators at the courtyard wall also laughed and flew away one after another. The several spiritual consciousnesses that had been hovering in the sky also disappeared in an instant.
