I’m Not An Immortal

Chapter 265: Jiang Chen

Views:

The inspector inspected the tripod ring very quickly and released it after a moment.

So, before Jianchou could sort out his thoughts, he saw Li Han coming up. His face had returned to calm, as if the smile just now had never appeared. He just glanced at him, chose the empty seat right in front of Jianchou, and sat down.

He is tall, but also a little thin.

When he sat down, the corner of his robe fell to the ground, but not a speck of dust got on it.

This was not a very burly back figure, but it brought Jianchou an unspeakable sense of oppression and suffocation.

No one would forget that the man sitting in front of her had once instantly killed a cultivator in the Jade Nirvana Stage.

That smile from before was so quick that it seemed like an illusion.

Moreover, no one around Jianchou showed any abnormality, as if he was the only one who saw the other person's smile, or as if what he saw was an illusion.

This feeling is extremely strange.

Jianchou didn't think she was having an illusion. The other person did smile at her. There seemed to be a secret message hidden in those deep blue eyes like glass, waiting for her to explore.

Is it because of the Eight Directions Hell Palace

After all, the other party is also on the list and should know about this "deal", so that's why he looks at me like this, right

For a moment, Jianchou couldn't figure it out.

She slowly pressed her forehead, forcing her chaotic thoughts to calm down.

Now, she needs a calm, undisturbed mind, more than anything else.

Countless people in the audience were still talking about Jianchou, or Li Han who had just come on stage.

At first, they didn't quite believe the news leaked in advance by the Eight Directions Yama Palace. They never thought that they would actually see Jianchou here.

Thus, the original doubts disappeared.

But people's new topic also came up with it -

What is she here for

Does she think she can win

Does she have any special abilities

Can she make it through the second round

Some people started making bets on the spot, and the atmosphere became very lively for a while.

Of course, there were also some bored people who noticed Li Han sitting in front of Jianchou and laughed and asked, "Do you think, with Li Han's temper, he would get so angry while sitting there that he would strangle the weak girl behind him to death?"

"Hahaha… "

"Let's not do that. I'm still waiting to see the show!"

"What if this is possible?"

The laughter spread immediately.

Everyone knows that Li Han was originally supposed to get the quota for the Ghost King clan, but because of the sudden appearance of Zhong Lanling in Fengdu City, he was squeezed out and had to get it from the eighteenth floor.

As a result, a small Soul Bead Realm cultivator has actually obtained a place in the Eight Directions Hell Palace.

Isn't this a slap in the face

When many people thought about it this way, they couldn't help but start looking forward to it.

After a while, the stage was full.

The half-hour deadline mentioned earlier was quickly approaching.

Zhou Qingyu, who was responsible for hosting the second round, came out again, clapped his hands, and signaled everyone to be quiet.

Then he turned around, with his back to the outside, and faced the crowd, glancing around.

"The time has come. You will soon be able to see the questions you are facing through the Ding Ring. You need to use the Ding Ring as a magic weapon to answer the questions. You only have one chance to sink your mind into answering the questions. The time is half an hour, and you only have one chance to answer each question. When you finish answering the questions, you will cut out your mind. Those who pass the test will be announced by the Ding Zhengjin Order."

"Those who fail to answer 80% of the questions correctly will be automatically eliminated and taken off the stage by the Tripod Ring."

"At the beginning, the Golden Cauldron Order will automatically ring, and the same will happen at the end."

Zhou Qingyu pointed to the center of the square.

It was a huge golden pillar. The golden light that descended when Jin Ling flew over was hovering above it, forming the rules for this year's competition.

Everyone looked in the direction of his finger and nodded in understanding.

Jianchou started to calculate.

There were a total of one hundred questions she got from Cui Jue. If she had to answer 80% of them correctly, the requirement was not particularly high.

I thought the written test was just a basic test, so Jianchou didn't take it seriously.

On the contrary, she was more interested in the little thing called "Ding Ring".

After the person being inspected had covered the groove on the disc, a small white circle with a center appeared on the round face of the tripod ring, emitting a faint fluorescent light.

If you immerse your mind in it, you will find that a world of white fog appears before your eyes.

There seemed to be something hidden in this white fog, and I couldn't find the bottom of it.

This reminded Jianchou of the one-man meeting on the stage. The light curtain set up by Fudao Shanren and Hengxu Zhenren could see the situation of most people inside.

Jiyuyu has to rely on Dingzheng even more to reap huge benefits from it.

Something like this that can monitor the fighting situation at any time should not exist.

So, how can we see it

He slowly turned the tripod ring on his index finger, and the corners of Jianchou's lips slowly curled up, but his eyes were slightly narrowed.

They almost forgot that the tripod ring placed on them by the Eight Directions Yama Palace must not be underestimated, otherwise they would not even know how they died.

If she was the organizer and designer of the Ding Zheng, I'm afraid she would also set up such a seemingly insignificant prop.

In fact, the Tripod Ring is an effective weapon to monitor everyone involved in the Tripod Fight.

but…

No one in the Nineteenth Continent has refined this special little gadget.

When Jianchou was thinking about the difficulty of refining this thing, the contents of several pages automatically emerged in his mind—

The Secret of the Tripod Ring

The Solution

"Looking at the Precepts through Precepts"

This is

Even Jianchou was shocked by herself. What suddenly appeared in her mind was actually all the research related to the tripod ring!

"… "

There was a moment of hesitation.

Later, Jianchou realized that these were the things she had read in the study before. It was just because she memorized them by rote and did not fully understand them at that time, so when they emerged in her mind at this moment, she felt so unfamiliar.

At this moment, he quickly "read" these pages again in his mind, and Jianchou's expression changed slightly!

The owner of the study room has already studied the tripod ring thoroughly.

That small part of the content includes the method of refining the tripod ring and the method of breaking it...

There is even a saying “Look at the precepts by the precepts”!

The tripod rings were not made one by one, but in sets, like a spider web.

Each tripod ring is a connection point on the Internet.

The situation of each connection point will be fed back to the center of the spider web through the tripod ring, which is the center of this set of tripod rings.

"Use a ring to observe another ring" means using an ordinary tripod ring in the entire spider web to break through the limitations of this set of tripod rings, destroy the rules, and spy on the situation of other tripod rings!

what does that mean

Jianchou took a breath of cold air just after reading it!

If, if I can do it, then wouldn't all the opponents in Dingzheng be under my control

She showed no sign of extreme shock on her face, but her heart was already in turmoil.

until…

"Buzz", a loud sound!

Jianchou raised his head, and his slightly confused thoughts were finally pulled back to reality.

In the center of the square, above the huge golden cylinder, at the same time as this sound, bursts of golden light like nebulae were ejected, instantly covering the entire square!

It was as if a long scroll of starlight was spread out in the dim sky.

All the surrounding buildings have a strange luster under such a brilliant nebula, quiet and magnificent.

There was another round of cheers from below. It can be seen that when Chou looked up, he only had a familiar feeling...

Starlight.

The polar region exists underground relative to the ground, so where is the real starlight

She suddenly remembered the scene when she activated the One-Man Platform and launched the strongest attack. The One-Man Platform was revolving around the Yuanshi Star, so it had the power to travel through space.

So, does this similar starlight mean something

A dark green ripple gently spread out from the dark green tripod ring on Jianchou's finger.

Then, each question of the second round of written test appeared in her mind.

These one hundred questions had been leaked to me by Cui Jue long before.

It was no difficulty for Jianchou.

With just a thought, you can pick out the most correct answer from several given alternative answers.

She didn't rush to answer the questions, but looked around.

The voices of everyone in the audience were instantly silenced. It should be that the nebula scroll above their heads automatically blocked out everyone's voices to prevent cheating.

Chen Tingyan was on Jianchou's right, and Zhang Tang was in front of Chen Tingyan.

Li Han also sat in front with his back straight, almost motionless. Because he had his back to her, she could not see his expression.

It seemed that everyone was concentrating on the tripod ring and answering the questions seriously.

Jianchou withdrew his gaze and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Now, she faces a problem: should she "hand in the paper" early

Next to the square is a tall 18-story building.

Looking down from the highest point, you can have a panoramic view of the entire square.

At this moment, Cui Jue, dressed in a blue robe, stood on it, staring down.

"Why doesn't she move?"

A clear voice came from beside him, but it was so far away that it seemed to be in the clouds.

Cui Jue couldn't help but look back.

In front of the railing, there is a slender woman.

She has a very thin waist, a soft face, a full forehead, and a pair of clear eyes without impurities. When she gazes down from a high place, she has an unusually lofty temperament.

It's like a bird spreading its wings and singing a clear song on the Fengluan Terrace.

A white dress, very soft, like gauze or clouds.

It seems as if the wind blows and it can fly into the sky.

She looked like a very ordinary woman.

The only thing that could prove her identity was the long skirt that meandered behind her, with golden embroidery patterns on it, one after another, gradually spreading towards her back.

Any judge in the Eight Hell Palaces knows that this golden embroidery pattern and winding hem can only be seen on the robes of the Eight Hell Lords.

This is their unique mark, and it is also an indelible mark.

Even so, Cui Jue knew that Jiang Chang didn't seem to like this mark.

Yes, the person standing next to him was Jiang Chang, who had arrived at the City of Wrongful Death more than seventy days ago.

Because Sha Hanzhi, who was sent to the Ghost Gate, mysteriously disappeared, Jiang Chang left the affairs of Bafang City and came to look for him.

Just the end result...

Cui Jue didn’t know how to describe it.

As expected

Unexpected

A little bit of both.

The missing Sha Hanzhi had already been murdered, and the incident happened near the Ghost Gate.

As the half-steward under the City King, Sha Hanzhi has always been highly regarded and much loved by Jiang Qian. How could Jiang Qian easily abandon her

She even resorted to using the unique power of the Eighth King of Hell.

But in the end, we still couldn't find out who did it and what the purpose was. All the information was extremely vague.

Cui Jue did not expect that she would appear on the eighteenth floor today.

Maybe, I'm just tired of checking, so I just take a walk

As for the person she asked...

Cui Jue followed her gaze and saw Jianchou who was obviously not answering the questions below.

He was deeply impressed by this female cultivator who dared to blackmail the Eight Directions Yama Palace with a huge demand and finally succeeded.

Seeing this, Cui Jue was silent for a moment, and the corner of his eye couldn't help but jump: "Your Highness, she knows the answers to all the questions, so she shouldn't be in a hurry, right?"

This is a guess, which may not be accurate enough to answer Jiang Chang's question, but it is definitely accurate enough to answer Jianchou's current state.

Jiang Qian didn't look back and continued looking down.

She understood it as soon as she heard it. How could the ghost cultivators below know the answer for no reason

Needless to say, the unscrupulous Prince Qin Guang should have added another layer of weight to the success of this competition.

Jiang Chen didn't ask any more questions.

She wasn't really paying attention to Ding Zheng's affairs, and she came here today just to take a look.

She quickly looked away from Jianchou and glanced at the others casually. She didn't notice anything, but...

When Jiang Qian saw the figure in front of Jianchou, he suddenly had a very strange feeling in his heart.

It was as if there were some monsters hiding beneath this navy blue figure.

But in the blink of an eye, this feeling quickly disappeared from her heart, like a momentary illusion!

"… "

Jiang Chang couldn't help but lean forward slightly, put his pair of slender jade-like hands on the railing, and his eyes were slightly dazzled.

"Who is that?"

that

Cui Jue was stunned. Looking at Jiang Chang's posture, he inexplicably felt a chill in his heart.

He looked over quickly and saw the figure in front of Jianchou...

“… He is a ghost cultivator from the Ghost King Clan, named Li Han, and he is a ruthless fellow.”

"Li Han..."

The vague sound, like clouds, slowly drifted away, and Jiang Qian looked down from a high place.

She was a little confused as to what the feeling just now meant.

I vaguely remember that when I first saw King Qin Guang, I had a similar feeling, but... it wasn't as strong as this one.

"Your Highness, is there something wrong?"

Cui Jue thought she had discovered something.

Jiang Qian shook his head and said nothing. He also gave up the idea of leaving and just said, "... Let's take a look."

Take a look.

It’s only the second round of the competition.

Jianchou below has been thinking for a while.

Her eyes were unconsciously fixed on the back of Master Li in front of her, staring at the patterns of skulls, yakshas and evil spirits on his navy blue robe.

Maybe it was because he felt her gaze, but his back suddenly stiffened for a moment.

Tightly, stretched.

It was as if one had suddenly encountered some extreme danger.

However, the next moment everything returned to normal, as if nothing had changed.

This kind of tension, just like Li Han's previous smile, came quickly and went away quickly.

Jianchou frowned unconsciously, but reacted the next moment.

That's all.

They are all unimportant things.

She is still on the stage. Since she has already received benefits from all sides of the world, she should just "love what she does" and carry out the "gimmick" to the end.

The crowd below was pointing and talking at her, and seemed to have noticed her carelessness and absent-mindedness.

Even though they were a little far away, it was clear that Chou could tell what they were saying by their lip shapes.

"Doesn't she know any of the questions?"

"Haha, so miserable?"

"I bet she'll come down. She must be scared to death now, right?"

"I want to see her enter the next level. I wonder how she will die. I'm really looking forward to it..."

Well, are you looking forward to it

She is also looking forward to it.

There is only one chance to concentrate on answering the questions. After finishing the questions, if you pass, the Ding Zheng Golden Order will automatically announce that you have entered the next round.

So…

Jianchou smiled slightly, lowered his head, and completely immersed his mind in the tripod ring.

Question after question quickly appeared in her mind, and she could immediately give the most correct answer without even thinking.

One question!

Two questions!

Three questions!

Four questions!

Jianchou completed all the test questions at an outrageous speed!
