Chapter 338
When all the cultivators in the world had their eyes on northern Luo City.
In the boundless sea outside Dongyang county.
On a lone island.
In front of a thatched cottage.
A lonely figure sat there with his legs crossed. This person’s essence, energy, and spirit seemed to be on the verge of being extinguished. It was so weak that it was almost undetectable, as if his aura would disappear at any moment.
It was like an old man who was at the end of his lifespan, causing his aura to be cut off.
However, this figure’s body contained an extremely powerful force that was filled with vitality.
This small island was the place where du Longyang was in closed-door cultivation.
He had been sitting here for more than half a year.
In reality, he was just a hair’s breadth away from breaking through.
However, just this hair’s breadth had caused him to expend countless amounts of mental energy.
For more than half a year, he had been trying to break through the barrier.
Unfortunately, he had failed time and time again.
However, he didn’t give up. The fifth-grade dao intent he had comprehended enveloped his body.
With the help of his dao intent, he continued to break through the barrier.
The courageous spear intent was the fifth-grade dao intent du Longyang had comprehended.
It wasn’t very outstanding, but du Longyang was very satisfied. This was the dao intent he had comprehended after overcoming his inner demons, and he felt a great sense of accomplishment.
He was once the first spear in the world that he wasn’t confident in.
But now, he was incomparably confident in the spear in his hand!
Rumble..
The weather in the sky changed.
Thick clouds billowed, and the weather on the sea was like a woman’s mood, changing at will.
The originally clear sky was suddenly covered with thunderclouds.
Thunder exploded in the sky, and the sound of the explosion seemed to be tens of thousands of miles away.
The patter of rain fell from the sky, as if it had covered the entire island with a hazy gauze.
The cold rain fell on du Longyang’s body.
However, he was still unmoved.
He had experienced this situation too many times.
However, his mind sank into his body and attacked the barrier.
In his heart, there were many flower buds waiting to bloom.
He wanted to let this flower bloom with the grace that he should have.
Suddenly.
Du Longyang, who had his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes.
A Go game appeared in his mind.
It was a go game that he played against Lu fan before he went into seclusion. This game had given him a lot of insights.
His mind seemed to float out of his body.
He saw a small island appear in the vast sea, as if it had a thick immortal aura.
Du Longyang’s heart shook.
He could not help but stand up. In the storm and thunder, he walked towards the immortal island step by step.
He subconsciously held the black spear. The spear was the source of his bravery.
The Thunder seemed to be getting quieter and quieter.
Finally, du Longyang stepped onto the Immortal Island.
The Thunder seemed to have been suddenly erased.
The sound of the long grass and the flying warblers rippled on the immortal island. The dark green grass swayed, emitting a fresh fragrance.
The fragrance of the Earth contained vigorous vitality.
This was a world full of green.
Du Longyang took a deep breath in satisfaction. He felt that his body, mind, and soul were transforming.
He turned around, only to find that the vast sea behind him had disappeared, leaving behind only a gray haze.
Was there no way back?
Then let’s head up the mountain!
Du Longyang was quite free and easy. Holding his spear, he walked along the mountain path step by step.
The Spirit Mountain had many beautiful colors. The air and water were dense.
He walked halfway up the mountain.
Suddenly, his footsteps stopped.
An old pine tree was growing halfway up the mountain. The pine needles were densely packed, vigorous and powerful. Its branches were like dragons.
However, this old pine tree was not the main reason that attracted du Longyang.
What attracted him was a stone table and chair under the old pine tree.
What shocked du Longyang even more was...
He blinked his eyes and saw two figures appear on the stone chair.
One of them was dressed in white and a young man was sitting beside the Stone Table. Opposite the young man was a figure dressed in a black robe. There was an oppressive and terrifying demonic aura surging.
On the stone table was a chessboard.
The young man was playing chess with the black-clothed existence.
Du Longyang walked over curiously.
He looked at the young man, but he felt that the young man’s face was very blurry, and he couldn’t even see it clearly.
The black-robed figure and the figure with monstrous demonic aura couldn’t see his face clearly either.
He simply didn’t look at the two of them, and instead looked at the chessboard.
With this look, his mind was immediately drawn in.
The white-robed youth placed his stone. He was as gentle as jade and looked like an elegant young master.
As for the black-robed person’s chess move, it was incomparably ruthless. It carried a domineering aura and a terrifying destructive aura. It was as if it wanted to completely tear apart the white-robed youth’s chess move.
The white-robed youth’s chess move became a dragon, while the black-robed person raised his saber to slay the dragon.
Du Longyang was completely attracted. He did not even dare to breathe quickly or loudly.
Pa-da, pa-da..
The white-robed youth and the black-robed man’s moves competed against each other.
Suddenly.
Du Longyang felt as if he had personally witnessed a battle between peerless experts.
Boom!
Suddenly.
Just as Du Longyang felt that the chess game was about to end.
The white-robed youth laughed lightly and his figure disappeared.
The black-robed man also transformed into demonic qi and charged into the clouds.
Pine leaves fell onto the chessboard, leaving behind only the remnants of the game.
The wind blew gently.
Pine leaves rustled.
Du Longyang woke up and panted heavily.
He did not know when, but he was actually covered in cold sweat. He wiped his face.
Suddenly, his heart trembled, but he realized that he did not know when his long and narrow beard had fallen to his chest.
The long spear in his hand was already covered in rust, as if it had experienced a long time and was about to wither.
“This...”
Du Longyang’s pupils constricted.
He looked at the chess game, and in an instant, it was as if a thousand years had passed!
Suddenly.
A strong pulling force was transmitted.
He felt as if his mind was about to explode.
The Immortal Island disappeared.
The unshaven him also suddenly lost consciousness.
When du Longyang opened his eyes.
He found that he was still in the thatched cottage, and the cold rain was slapping down from the sky.
Du Longyang stood up, and his robe was completely soaked by the rain.
He looked at the vast sea in the distance.
There, the giant whale’s tail raised, raised the waves, carried the hazy immortal island, and disappeared..
In du Longyang’s mind, there was a cracking sound.
The entrenched mutated nascent soul was surrounded by endless energy.
In the next moment, the energy turned into lotus petals, and the valiant spear intent attacked the lotus petals one after another.
Dao lotuses were born, and Yin Gods emerged.
Du Longyang stood in front of the thatched cottage, his heart unperturbed.
..
Two white streaks exploded in the vast sea.
Master Tianxu and Ye Shoudao stepped on the air and came over, and a small island soon appeared in their eyes.
Just a moment ago, they sensed a huge change in aura.
This made them realize something, and they quickly rushed over.
In the storm.
The two of them floated and looked at each other. They saw each other’s shock.
“Du Longyang is about to break through.”
Ye Shoudao’s empty sleeves fluttered in the wind as he said solemnly.
“The first realm of the three gods... Yin God realm!”
Master Tianxu clicked his tongue and couldn’t help but feel a little jealous.
As expected.
Before they got close, they found a terrifying aura sweeping over.
The storm was blocked.
With the small island as the center, countless seawater was suppressed, and a resplendent lotus bloomed!
“It’s Here! The dao lotus that master Lu mentioned...”
“Yin God Dao Lotus!”
Ye shoudao also sighed with emotion.
Du Longyang... succeeded.
..
Origin Lake, Lake Heart Island.
Lu fan leaned on the thousand blades chair and closed his eyes slightly. His fingers pressed against the ARMGUARD and tapped lightly.
“Yin god Dao Lotus, Yang God Nine Steps...”
“Finally, the first three God realm has appeared.”
Lu fan said.
However, he soon frowned slightly.
“I thought that the infant transformation realm was the limit of the intermediate level, but now it seems like that is not the case...”
“Du Longyang has broken through to the Yin God realm, and although there is a slight suppression, he has not encountered the restriction of the heaven and earth shackles. In other words, the infant transformation realm is not the limit of the intermediate level...”
Lu fan thought.
He closed his eyes.
The system interface appeared in his mind.
Host: Lu Fan
Title: Qi Practitioner (permanent)
Level: 5(Level 5 progress: 258,045/100,000,000 wisps of Spiritual Essence)
Lu Fan’s heart skipped a beat when he saw that his Qi cultivation progress had increased by 100,000 wisps.
To be able to increase 100,000 wisps of spiritual essence from the birth of a three gods level Qi practitioner was a pleasant surprise to Lu fan.
However, it was too difficult to give birth to a three gods realm expert.
Du Longyang had only broken through by chance.
If it was the great empress or heavenly oasis, they might have already reached the threshold, but if they wanted to break through, it would take them at least eight to ten years.
Ye Shoudao might be faster, but he was definitely not as fast as du Longyang.
This was the situation where Lu fan had opened the back door for du Longyang.
“In other words, if you want to enter the Qi refinement realm level 6, you need to train at least ten people at the three gods realm...”
This would take a lot of time. At least, it would be impossible to find ten people who had the hope of entering the three gods realm in a short period of time.
Lu fan opened his eyes and sighed.
It looked simple, but it was very difficult to carry out in practice.
“As expected... I still have to hope for the big fish attracted by the Buddha’s bait.”
Lu fan raised his head.
Suddenly.
There were faint lines jumping in his eyes.
It was as if he had seen through countless layers of thick clouds and saw a scene beyond the sky.
There was a huge continent that was pressing down on the void. It was emitting a terrifying pressure as it slowly approached.
On the huge continent.
The plain robed monk was floating in the air.
He looked at a piece of land that was giving off a faint light in the distant void peacefully and silently.
..
Bei Luo City.
A place where countless cultivators were gathered.
The students of the Great Xuan College had entered, and the Xiang family Army of Xiliang had also appeared at the same time. The two sides met outside the city gates, but the expected collision did not happen.
The Overlord’s expression was cold, but Tantai Xuan smiled and chatted with the Overlord for a while.
Both sides entered Beiluo City.
Lu Changkong was not in beiluo. Now, the ones in charge of beiluo were Luo Yue and Luo Cheng.
They did not cower and led everyone into the training grounds of Beiluo City.
Ni Yu represented young master to supervise this bet, so she appeared very mature and her expression was extremely cold.
Of course, if she didn’t carry a black pot behind her back, her aura might be even more imposing.
Little Yinglong lay on top of Ni Yu’s head and lazily yawned.
The Empress, as a bystander, watched ni Yu’s performance with a smile on her face.
“Both parties, please enter the arena.”
Ni Yu spoke with a solemn expression on her chubby face.
Some of the ordinary experts didn’t have much of a feeling. After all, Ni Yu currently represented White Jade Capital. As soon as this identity was revealed, it naturally carried a bit of authority.
However, nie changqing, nie shuang, and the others who were familiar with Ni Yu could not help but smile.
This girl... She even put on an act.
Outside the martial arts practice field.
Many figures stood there one after another.
There were various aristocratic families, as well as various factions.
Even Tang Xiansheng had rushed over from the South Prefecture. Under the protection of the South Prefecture army, he watched the situation in the martial arts practice field from afar.
The overlord led hundreds of cavalries and sat in the west of the martial arts practice field. A dense aura filled the sky.
Tantai Xuan led the other disciples of the Great Xuan College and the Black Tortoise guards to sit in the north. They were also extremely solemn.
Mo Beike, Xie Yunling, Lu Dongxuan and the other representatives of the hundred schools of thought gathered together and laughed.
The Dragon Blood Army was in charge of managing order.
After all, northern Luo City was the place where White Jade Capital made its debut.
The cultivators of the Tian Yuan region and the five phoenixes didn’t dare to mess around here, so order was maintained very well.
Ni Yu’s chubby face was full of seriousness. After seeing that everyone had gathered, she nodded her head in an extremely mature manner.
“Under young master’s orders, I’ll be in charge of hosting the bet between the Great Mysterious Academy and the Xiang family Army.”
“The winner will receive the reward that young master gave.”
Ni Yu said.
Her voice echoed throughout the arena.
As soon as she finished speaking, three purple spirit crystals appeared in her hand. The resplendent purple spirit crystals emitted a dazzling light.
The instant the purple spirit crystals appeared, the spectators around the arena started breathing rapidly.
“Purple spirit crystals... that’s a treasure that can only be obtained in the third prison gate.”
“Every purple spirit crystal can produce a precious treasure!”
“Most importantly, this is the purple spirit crystal given by young master Lu! It’s definitely a crystal that can produce a treasure!”
The surrounding people went crazy.
They didn’t expect that there would be such a reward in this bet.
The purple spirit crystal given by Lu fan might be able to produce an extremely precious dao tablet!
Back then, didn’t Mo Tianyu open up a dao tablet from the spirit crystal to study and comprehend a fourth-grade dao intent in one go?
Overlord and Tantai Xuan were stunned.
They looked at each other, their eyes flashing with sharpness.
Purple spirit crystal... that was a good thing.
The competitive atmosphere between the two became more intense.
Ni Yu was very satisfied with everyone’s emotions. How could they not be shocked by what the young master took out.
She kept the purple spirit crystal.
Then, she took out a small brocade pouch.
“This brocade pouch contains the rules young master set.”
The moment she said this, the noisy atmosphere caused by the purple spirit crystal instantly froze.
Overlord and Tantai Xuan also furrowed their brows.
Mo Beike’s heavy eye bags trembled and revealed a wily smile. Sure enough, there were rules.
Jiang Li slightly tilted her body as she prepared to seriously listen to the rules.
Ni Yu opened her brocade pouch,
bang!
Within the Brocade Pouch, a powerful aura soared into the sky as resplendent characters exploded in the air.
The characters formed the rules.
“This competition is divided into three rounds. The three rounds will determine the winner.”
“The first round will be a single battle. Both sides will send three people to fight one on one. The three rounds will determine the winner.”
“The second round is a team battle. Both sides will fight as a team. One round will decide the winner.”
“The third round is a battle to kill the enemy.”
“Three wins and two wins will become the winner.”
The words floated in the air. After a long while, they slowly disappeared.
The appearance of the rules surprised everyone.
The Overlord raised his eyebrows. He did not expect the rules... to be so biased towards the Xiang family army?
“Didn’t young master Lu think highly of the Great Mysterious Academy? Why did he set such a rule... no matter which side you look at it from, it is beneficial to the Xiang family army.”
“The Great Mysterious Academy is in trouble. Those students in the academy have not experienced the baptism of the storm. Even if they have killed before, how can they be compared to the military cultivators who have been through hundreds of battles?”
“They are at a disadvantage. This rule... is completely biased towards the Xiang family army. It is not fair.”
“Shh! Are you courting death? You Dare to say that the rules set by young master Lu are not fair?”
The moment the rules were laid out, the surroundings exploded into chaos.
Tantai Xuan’s heart sank to the bottom.
On the Xiang family army’s side, Xu Chu smiled.
She smiled very happily.
These rules were completely on their side.
In terms of battle... who was the Xiang family Army afraid of? !
The outcome had long been decided!
The Overlord’s heart that was originally hanging in the air had also calmed down.
Could it be that young master Lu thought that in terms of battle, the Xiang family Army would lose to those soft-spoken students of the Great Mysterious Academy?
Winning two out of three battles would determine the victor.
The corner of the Overlord’s mouth curled up. Looks like... This competition didn’t even need to go on until the third round to end.
PS: There’s still one more shift at night! Votes!
