I’m Not An Immortal

Chapter 114: This night, this moon

Views:

"Yashan, see sorrow..."

The whispering voice, with a tone that seemed to be surprise, fear, and even hostility, overflowed from the thin lips.

The originally handsome face was scratched by the bloodstain spreading from the center of the eyebrows. Coupled with the increasingly gloomy and depressing look on his body, the young man in the dark red robe standing in the crowd made people feel even more frightened.

Zhang Sui stood behind the people from the Demon Sealing Sword Sect and looked at the young man in silence.

As a mediocre person who had only just reached the threshold of the Golden Core after practicing for thirty to fifty years, Zhang Sui could only look up to all the geniuses. However, the strength of this "Xiahou Junior Brother" was beyond everyone's imagination, and even beyond their comprehension.

After four years of seclusion, he defeated all his fellow monks in the sect as soon as he came out, leaving a legend in the entire Demon Sealing Sword Sect that no one in the new generation could rival him.

Young, gloomy, seemingly polite, but actually powerful and cold.

Today, Zhi Linsou ranked him first in this session of the Zuo Sanqian Small Meeting, and it was not without reason. It was just that the Demon Sealing Sword Sect was far away in the northwest corner of the Central Region, and it was quite remote, so many news did not spread that quickly. In addition, the Demon Sealing Sword Sect deliberately blocked the news, and only Zhi Linsou, who had great magical powers, could hear a little bit, which led to the current ranking.

only…

Many people see him ranked first, but they do not necessarily agree with his ability to be ranked first.

Suddenly, I felt a bitter sensation in my throat.

Zhang Sui did not say anything, but followed the gaze of Xiahou She, who was surrounded by the crowd, and looked towards Jianchou on the terrace.

Seeing sorrow, he just sat cross-legged quietly.

There might be countless monks below who were ready to make a move, but none of them would rush forward and kill Jianchou at this time.

"Incompetent piece of shit..."

The mocking voice came from Xiahou She's mouth, but it was calm.

Anyone with common sense could see that Jianchou was almost exhausted at this moment and could be knocked down with just three punches and two kicks.

However, after defeating Jianchou, it is not certain that one will be able to keep the position of connecting to the rooftop.

He looked at Chou deeply, with an unspeakable curiosity in his eyes: When will her axe appear

Xiahou She lowered his eyelids and took a quick look. Now, among all the people on the rooftop, none of them could attract his attention anymore, and no one challenged Jianchou. So he simply did not want to stay and turned around and left.

The people from the Demon Sealing Sword Sect wanted to watch for a while longer and had no intention of leaving, so they just said goodbye to Xiahou She.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, exclamations of surprise were heard from many monks around.

"sky!"

"The notebook has been changed!"

"Are you crazy?"

"Is there something wrong with Zhilinsou's brain?"

"Damn it... Am I blind?"

A voice of disbelief.

What happened

Everyone who did not have the "One Person's Notebook" in their hands now knew that the ranking might have been changed, but they did not know what it had been changed to.

Xiahou She, who was about to leave, stopped and looked over.

There were originally huge crowds of people at the foot of Kunwu Mountain, with countless people gathering around each of the terraces.

At the foot of the third sky-reaching terrace in the south, many people had dispersed after the battle ended. However, because there were so many people watching earlier, they did not disperse completely even after a while. Some people simply sat down on the ground, as if they were very curious about Jianchou's next opponent and did not intend to leave.

Therefore, at the moment when "One Person's Notes" was revised, there was an exclamation from the audience, which immediately attracted countless discussions.

Countless monks quickly flipped open the small book, clicked on the ranking, and the first page appeared instantly, with the top ten rankings!

First row—

"First, the cliff mountain is filled with sorrow!"

"Unlimited potential, unlimited combat power, the unknown!"

Are you kidding me?!

The bright light has a round jade quality, as if it was carved in the void.

Everyone stared, their eyeballs almost falling to the ground!

If I remember correctly, this talented Yashan senior sister was only ranked 100th, right? She was the laughing stock of everyone at that time. How come after this battle, Zhilinsou turned against her and changed the ranking just because of a disagreement

Just change it. After all, even though the battle just now may not have demonstrated the full strength of the two men, it did show the tip of the iceberg.

but!

Wouldn't it be too much to change it directly from 100 to 1

Did the last "hundred" get eaten by that old man? !

You are arranging it backwards!!!

Everyone watching couldn't accept it.

But if you continue reading, you will find that Xiahou She from the Demon Sealing Sword Sect, who was originally considered a dark horse, is now second, Ruhua Gongzi from the Five Yi Sect is third, and the others have basically moved back one place in the order. However, Lu Xiangleng, the medicine girl from the White Moon Valley, who was originally ranked fifth, has fallen out of the top ten for some reason, and her name cannot even be found in the first few pages.

The rankings of those after the fifth place remained basically unchanged.

I was really dizzy. Lu Xiangleng was the favorite to win the championship, but she disappeared in the blink of an eye. The others didn't move. It shows that Ming Linsou was really serious.

This ranking is the real latest ranking!

In other words, in Zhilinsou's mind, Yashan Jianchou is the candidate who will be the sole candidate to take the stage at this session of Zuo Sanqian Club!

For a moment, everyone was speechless.

“…How is that possible?!”

In another corner, Xu Lan'er looked at the latest rankings. The light red teardrop mole at the corner of her eyes couldn't help but tremble a few times because of extreme anger and confusion.

No. 100. That Jianchou was originally No. 100!

Is it possible that old man Zhilin’s eyes are blurry

Even if Jianchou defeated Kunwu Xie Ding, he could only rank third at best. How could he crush the Ruhua Gongzi of Wuyi Sect and the mysterious Xiahou She of Fengmo Sword Sect? Everyone could see that Jianchou was only at the peak of foundation building and had not yet reached the golden elixir stage. How could he have crossed two small realms and surpassed so many masters

Jianchou's name was hanging high at the top of the first page, while her name, Xu Lan'er, was at the first on the second page.

The two "firsts" are actually worlds apart!

The mortal enemy who had been left far behind by her just now, now seemed to have climbed up the ladder to heaven, and in an instant he was above her head, hanging high in the first place

Is Zhilinsou really crazy

With her fingers tightly clenched on the "One-Person Notebook", Xu Lan'er's body was trembling slightly.

Endless injustice accumulated in her heart.

A hand as white as jade suddenly fell on her shoulder, with a sense of peace.

Xu Lan'er was surprised for a moment, then turned around and looked: "Master?"

The one who walked up was the extremely beautiful leader of the Candle-cutting Sect, Zhu Xin. The dark purple veil adorned her hair, making her look exactly like the ethereal "Fairy Zhu Xin" as everyone had rumored.

Smiling slightly at Xu Lan'er, Zhu Xin also glanced at Jianchou who was still sitting calmly on the rooftop. She didn't react at all, as if she was unaware of the noisy and boiling world around her.

"And rest assured."

rest assured

How can I feel at ease

Xu Lan'er's fingers exerted too much force and nearly tore the book apart.

Looking at Zhu Xin, there was some confusion in her eyes.

Zhu Xin glanced around and said, "Being ranked high may seem like a good thing, but it's lonely at the top. How many eyes are watching her in private? Your ranking is far from hers, and it's still like this. What about those who are closer? There are still two days, and there will be many more rounds in the meeting. Who knows who will have the last laugh. Lan'er, why worry?"

Close to...

A light bulb went off in Xu Lan'er's head, and she suddenly understood what Zhu Xin meant.

Jianchou had only defeated Xie Ding who was ranked third, but he was directly ranked first by Zhilinsou, and the reason was not even clearly stated, only something vague like "unlimited potential, unlimited combat power".

Who believes it

Who will obey

Almost all of those in the front are in the Jindan stage, and there is only one person in the foundation-building stage at the front. Wouldn't that make all the talented people in the world laugh out loud

Naturally, some people will want to test it out to see if this No. 1 is genuine.

At Zuo Sanqian's small meeting, how could the number one, a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, have an easy time

Xu Lan'er slowly smiled and finally calmed down. She bowed to Zhu Xin and said, "Master is very considerate. It is me who was reckless and thoughtless."

Zhu Xin smiled and nodded.

The master and his disciple stood almost side by side, with the rest of the Candle-Jianzhu Sect following behind them.

The young girl Jiang Ling has now grown into a beautiful young lady, but she still looks silent and timid. When she heard Zhu Xin and Xu Lan'er talking, she just buried her head deeper.

The news about this latest ranking has spread throughout the entire Kunwu main peak.

Everyone is discussing why Jianchou is ranked first. Of course, "Xiahou She", who was also inexplicably ranked first before, is also questioned whether he was ranked there in such a random manner.

Of course, one of the more eye-catching ones among them is the medicine woman Lu Xiangleng.

Someone tried hard to flip through the pages and finally found her name on the sixth page: Lu Xiangleng of Baiyue Valley, ranked 58th.

As a result, various rumors about the medicine girl became rampant.

However, Jianchou was completely unaware of all this.

The sun, which was shining on the entire land of 19 continents, soon began to set in the west.

Strands of spiritual energy all gathered in the ancestral acupoint between Jianchou's eyebrows. A blazing starlight gradually spread to the acupoints all over her body, slowly filling up the previously dried up Tianyuan.

The feeling of reaching the peak of foundation building is returning little by little.

Her cultivation had already reached a bottleneck. As long as she could move forward a little bit, she would be able to enter the next level.

But just a little bit has become a natural barrier.

Filled with spiritual energy, Jianchou felt like he was soaking in hot spring water, with every limb filled with warmth.

Her consciousness seemed to sink as well, and she came to a bright starry sky. There were faint nebulae passing by her eyes. Jianchou wanted to reach out and touch them, but she found that there seemed to be a layer of gauze, a layer of membrane, a layer of strange barrier between them...

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't seem to shake it.

She vaguely felt that something was missing.

Just a little bit can break through all the barriers and touch the world on the other side.

What is it, after all

Such thoughts finally made her long and thick eyelashes tremble and she opened her eyes.

The red sun set in the west like a fire, and the edge of the blue sky seemed to be burning with layer upon layer of golden flames, which was extremely gorgeous.

This day is about to end.

On the other 119 surrounding platforms, some had already finished their battles, while others were still in the final battle of the day, looking extremely exhausted. People near and far were discussing the subsequent battles, but few noticed that Jianchou had actually opened his eyes.

Apart from…

A young boy was standing very close in front of us, eating a melon.

Click, click…

As soon as his snow-white teeth closed, the bright red and sweet melon flesh immediately entered his mouth.

The light of the setting sun fell on his wheat-colored skin, giving people a feeling of health and vitality. The short fur coat wrapped around his body, which was not particularly strong, revealed a slow and vigorous spirit.

The big watermelon was held in his hands, and it was incredibly big.

What a great place to eat melons!

After taking a bite of watermelon, he wiped the seeds off his face with satisfaction, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. His smile was brighter than the clouds in the sky. He raised his eyes and met a pair of dark and calm eyes.

"Wow!"

At that moment, the boy screamed without hesitation, and was almost frightened to the point of losing his grip on the watermelon he had not yet finished eating, and fell to the ground.

Open, open your eyes!

Jianchou had been looking at him silently for a while, but he didn't expect him to shout so loudly. He was almost scared by him and didn't know what to say. He could only smile inexplicably.

Looking far away, many people around heard the boy's strange cry and looked over.

Jianchou, who had been meditating on the sky-reaching platform for a whole day, now had a bright light in his eyes, giving people a feeling that his spirit and energy had reached a perfect peak.

During this time, no one went up to challenge her.

As a result, a strange sight appeared throughout the rest of the day: while the competition on other dais was intense, this place was dead silent, as if it had become a restricted area in this selection.

At this moment, everyone looked at Jianchou with an indescribable complexity.

Jianchou didn't know where all this complexity came from, but then he saw the young man below, after the initial shock, without hesitation, he hugged the unfinished watermelon in his arms with both hands and shouted, "I, I, I, I just found a place with good feng shui to eat the watermelon. I didn't mean to challenge you. I, I, I, I will change places to eat it right away!"

Before he finished his words, the boy's two strong calves had turned into two wheels. With a quick run, he ran away with the big watermelon in his arms.

"… "

Hello!

Did I say I wanted to fight you

Jianchou felt quite speechless and even began to doubt how ferocious his face was.

The afterglow of the setting sun stretched her slender shadow behind her.

The shadows of the hundred and twenty terraces were also cast on the ground, forming a magnificent shadow.

At the moment when the red sun set in the west and finally sank into the Western Sea, a slow sound of drums spread throughout the area from the main peak of Kunwu.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom..."

One sound, one sound.

It's like knocking on one's heart, beating together with the hot blood in one's body.

The first day, at this moment, finally ended.

“Ahhh!”

Some excited people couldn't help cheering and jumped down directly from the rooftop.

The longer the day's battle goes, the harder it becomes to sustain, and the night is their rare chance to recover!

All of a sudden, countless figures were seen flying down in the last shadow of the setting sun and heading everywhere!

Maybe he is going to see a friend, maybe he is going to return to his master, maybe he is going to find someone to practice with alone...

All the people who had gathered at the foot of the mountain to watch disappeared in all directions, and the scene became deserted in the blink of an eye.

Jianchou stood on the sky-reaching terrace, watching the red sun sink into the sea and the slanting moon gradually hang above the sky.

"Pah, pah."

There were slight sounds of footsteps, not concealed at all, coming from the woods in the distance. Jianchou looked over immediately.

He was wearing a dark black robe with dark golden patterns, which was difficult to see clearly in the darkness where day and night intertwined.

Qu Zhengfeng's figure seemed to separate from the thick black shadows and then gather together into one person again.

If he concealed the sound of his footsteps, Jianchou would definitely not be able to find him.

One step, two steps…

Soon, Qu Zhengfeng arrived at the foot of the sky-reaching platform. He looked up at Jianchou's figure and smiled slightly: "Junior sister is now the best. You can go up to the sky-reaching platform and onto the one-person platform. Congratulations."

Take the lead

Jianchou didn't know the reason behind this. He just thought that Qu Zhengfeng's words were full of irony. He didn't reply to him, but just flew down with the wind, his clothes fluttering.

With a "swoosh" sound, the little mink jumped out from somewhere and landed on Jianchou's shoulder in an instant.

Seeing Sorrow fall to the ground, he was not too surprised. Looking at the little mink holding a few pine nuts in its claws, he thought it was just showing another "mink character" of its own and did not care.

Her eyes fell on Qu Zhengfeng in front of her, and Jianchou bowed and said, "Greetings, Senior Brother Qu, but there is nothing to congratulate, right?"

"After the battle with Mr. Xie, Mr. Zhilin arranged a new edition of "One Person's Notes", and you are ranked first."

Qu Zhengfeng told Jianchou the fact in a calm tone.

Jianchou was surprised: "First?"

This old man...

Could it be that what Qian Que had said before, “retarded”, really came true

She laughed at first, not caring much, but the next moment, she seemed to have thought of something, and the slight smile gradually faded and disappeared.

Seeing her expression, Qu Zhengfeng knew that she was smart and had guessed it.

Ranking first, how could it be so easy

I really don’t know whether he cheated Zhilinsou this time or Zhilinsou was cheated by him

I guess it’s half and half.

It's not a bad thing to become famous early.

Qu Zhengfeng didn't care much, and didn't even try to give any advice on how to solve the next problem. He just said, "Junior Sister seems to be close to forming a pill."

quick

Jianchou was not sure whether it was true or not.

only…

She had only felt that vague barrier when she was practicing just now. As for whether she was about to form a pill

Jianchou shook his head: "It seems like it's always a little short, maybe it's missing the finishing touch."

As for when this kick will come, God knows.

After his eyes wandered over Jianchou's face, Qu Zhengfeng seemed to want to say something, but finally stopped strangely.

Jianchou seemed to see what he was thinking: "I have completed the black wind bone tattoo. 75% of the skeleton is engraved with the black wind pattern. I wonder how much bone tattoo Brother Qu has?"

They both practiced the human-instrument cultivation method, practiced in the Black Wind Cave, and even stopped at the same 1,300 feet. How much did Qu Zhengfeng accomplish

This question really has a provocative tone.

Qu Zhengfeng pulled the corners of his lips apart, narrowed his eyes, and smiled slightly: "Little Junior Sister, do you know that I might break your neck in the next moment?"

"When I first became Master's disciple, I asked Master how big the Dou Pan was. Master said one zhang and one inch, which was exactly the same as your expression right now, Senior Brother."

Jianchou was extremely calm and looked at Qu Zhengfeng.

"… "

At this moment, Qu Zhengfeng was stunned, and then he couldn't help but laugh with his head raised.

"Hahaha, hahaha, it turns out that in the eyes of Junior Sister, Master and I are the same... "

About that.

Anyway, they don’t seem very reliable.

Jianchou was certain that Qu Zhengfeng's level of completion in the fifth level of human-device was definitely not as high as hers, which made her feel a little better.

It took Qu Zhengfeng a long time to stop laughing.

After he paused for a while, Jianchou asked, "There is one thing. I haven't found any trace of you in the past few days, so I haven't asked you. Now that I have seen you, I would like to ask you to solve my doubts for me."

"You want to ask Xie Buchen?"

Qu Zhengfeng raised his eyebrows slightly, and as soon as he saw her worried expression, he knew what she was going to ask.

There was no trace of surprise in Jianchou's eyes, and he was not at all surprised that Xie Buchen had guessed it.

"I heard that he is currently trapped in the hidden world of Qingfeng Temple. I wonder how Senior Brother is going to deal with it?"

It might be true that Xie Buchen was saved, but who knows what will happen in the future

Qu Zhengfeng squinted his eyes and looked at her fair neck, and began to think about the possibility of really breaking her neck.

The little junior sister is not cute at all, what’s the point of Master accepting her

Facing Jianchou's calm gaze, Qu Zhengfeng also replied calmly: "He won't die, and he won't be able to come out for a while. I'm just curious. When I mentioned Senior Sister Yashan, he never mentioned your name. He seems to be obsessed with cultivation and doesn't care about other things at all. It seems that he really has a deep relationship with Junior Sister."

This is not the first time Qu Zhengfeng has doubted.

Jianchou was silent for a moment and didn't say anything.

The moon is round.

Across the vast West Sea, on the isolated island on earth, it was already deep night.

In the hidden world of Qingfeng Temple, beneath the vast Gobi Desert, the empty and lonely wind blows across every rock.

The yellow sand is endless.

“Boom.”

The huge rock, which had been still for who knows how long, suddenly trembled, as if something moved beneath the rock.

This is a broken hidden world, a dangerous hidden world, and also a vast hidden world.

It is a space and a world of its own.

Only the laws between heaven and earth are the same as the outside world.

Wisps of spiritual energy roamed on the huge and broken chessboard, roamed between the wilderness and forests, roamed in the vast void... At the moment when the rocks in the central Gobi Desert shook, all the wandering spiritual energy seemed to be attracted by something and paused.

Afterwards, a magnificent spectacle unfolded in this deserted hidden world!

After a pause, the spiritual energy seemed to be attracted by something and trembled slightly, then suddenly changed its original cruising direction and mixed with the wind, like the tail flame of a shooting star, so dazzling!

One after another, glowing spiritual energy came from all over the hidden world of Qingfeng Temple and from all directions, all converging under the rocks!

They tried their best to drill through every hole in the rocks, and like rivers flowing into the sea, they rushed towards the dry body that was pressed in the darkness!

Crash...

It is clearly a stretch of yellow sand, clearly a desert, so dry that not even a single green grass can grow.

But there was the sound of flowing water in the air.

The spiritual energy was like substance, gathering into a long river, all rushing towards the rocks!

Bits of bright stardust twinkle in the gaps between the rocks.

A strong wind blew, and a corner of the bloodstained sleeve that was buried under the yellow sand was revealed again. Even though it was covered with dust, it could not conceal the scholarly elegance emanating from the five fingers.

The five skinny fingers looked like dead branches.

At this moment, a strong wind blew, and spiritual energy surged, and it suddenly moved again.

At this moment, a huge bowl with a radius of three meters finally penetrated the obstruction of broken rocks and slowly rotated in this deserted hidden world.

The stardust at the origin of the sky continued to increase, and when the silver light reached its peak, a little bit of faint golden light suddenly appeared...

Outside the hidden gate of Qingfeng Temple.

On the semicircular platform, Zhao Zhuo turned around and was about to fly up with his sword, but suddenly he felt a strange vibration.

However, when he turned around and looked inside the tightly closed door of the hidden world, there was no trace of her.

In the past few days since he came to the isolated island on earth, he has tried countless methods, but the hidden world was damaged too badly and could no longer withstand the pressure from high-level cultivators. At least cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage could not enter.

The news has been reported to Junior Brother Wu Duan, and Zhao Zhuo thinks that he should go back as well.

There was a hint of doubt in his eyes, but it was eventually suppressed by Zhao Zhuo.

He transformed into a stream of light and rushed out of the hidden world.

A brilliant starry sky suddenly appeared before my eyes.

Seven or eight stars in the sky, two or three drops of rain in front of the mountain.

The secular world is also amazingly beautiful.

Zhao Zhuo let out a long sigh, looked back at the secular world where reincarnation still existed, and finally plunged back into the vast ocean and disappeared.

The night grew darker.

In the secular world, thousands of doors are closed.

The capital of Daxia was in a state of solemnity. Outside the court and the imperial prison, more than a dozen common people knelt on the ground, crying and begging, "It's unjust, Lord Zhang is unjust... God, please open your eyes, why don't you give him a way out!"

Outside the yamen, the soldiers in heavy armor had stern faces and even sneered at these pleading words.

The cruel official Zhang Tang will be executed tomorrow, which will please the people. Only these fools would think that he was a good official just because he did such a small thing.

Since ancient times, if the king wants his subjects to die, the subjects have to die.

What’s more, it’s Zhang Tang

A small window casts the bright moonlight.

Zhang Tang sat in this narrow imperial prison, the place where he had tortured countless prisoners. His bare feet were covered with horrible blood marks from the heavy iron chains, and the shackles on his neck were so heavy that he could hardly raise his head.

But he still had a stiff neck and sat upright in this prison.

Looking out the window, Zhang Tang had no fear of death coming tomorrow.

The cries of pleading reached his ears, but they could not stir the stagnant water in his heart in the slightest.

The deep vertical scar between his eyebrows added an awe-inspiring majesty to him at this moment.

When he died, there was cheering throughout the court and the country.

Even countless people of Daxia applauded.

When this moon sets and the new sun rises from the east, his head, with three feet of blood splattered, will roll down the guillotine.

The autumn is deep.

Tomorrow, everything will end.

Zhang Tang slowly lowered his eyes and closed them.

But for Zuo Sanqian, a cultivator in the central region of the Nineteenth Continent, they wished that tonight could be longer and tomorrow could come later.

As soon as the sun rises and the bell rings, a new round of even more brutal fighting begins.

Under the Baierjietian Terrace, Jianchou was standing under the seat where he used to be, and opposite him was Qu Zhengfeng.

She had been silent for a long time, and only said one sentence: "Enemy."

No answer, no confirmation, but no denial either, just one word: enemy.

Qu Zhengfeng suddenly shook his head and laughed, then turned around and was about to leave.

Talking to Senior Sister Jianchou is always so interesting and boring.

Jianchou looked at his tall back and stood still, thinking of his fifth level of cultivation in Human Instrument, and the fight he had had on top of the Sheath...

A strong desire to fight suddenly surged in her heart.

At that moment, Jianchou suddenly spoke loudly: "After a short meeting, Senior Brother Qu, are you willing to fight with me?"

The steps stopped.

Qu Zhengfeng seemed to want to turn around, but didn't. He just turned his head to glance at the thick darkness around him, and at the towering shadow of Kunwu under the moonlight. There was an indescribable indifference in his tone.

"willing."

Just one word: wish!

After saying that, Qu Zhengfeng walked away and soon disappeared from Jianchou's sight.

A gust of wind blew and there was no trace of it left.

Jianchou stood there, thinking carefully about the word "wish", but she vaguely felt a very strange taste, but she couldn't tell what it was.

Looking back at the sky-reaching platform that was suspended thirty feet above the ground, there were also thick shadows below under the moonlight.

There were still several hours before dawn, but she didn't want to leave at all.

What kind of opponent will she meet tomorrow

I see sorrow without knowing it.

Everyone who comes is my enemy, I will fight them with all my strength!
