Cultivating Immortality: Start by burying corpses in a border town and become proficient!

Chapter 299: A competition to win the prize (5.4k, please subscribe)

When Du En spoke, Tang Wenren was dumbfounded. As the words fell, the air seemed to freeze.

Because even the great monks who were secretly watching were surprised by Du En's answer.

So, the attention that was not obvious before was directly turned to the stage at this moment, no longer concealed, which immediately made Yang Xin tremble with fear and sweat all over his body, but no one cared.

How could he refuse?

Could it be that there was another change on the counselor's side?

The great monks' focus was on this.

This was the derivative reaction of Du En's refusal, because his current attitude and actions were regarded as a display window representing Meng Changqing.

As for the little twists and turns they had before?

Since Du En is still a wandering traveler, it means that there are actually no twists and turns, so there is no need to doubt and inquire too much, so as not to cause displeasure and make the situation worse.

"The main thing is, why should I agree?"

"Hmm?"

Faced with Du En's continued words, people in the open and in the dark quickly figured out what was going on, and the atmosphere immediately relaxed back, and many people showed intriguing looks.

He didn't care about the attitudes of these great monks who didn't hide it, but just continued to say in a serious manner: "After all, I have traveled all the way, and I can be said to be exhausted. I just arrived in your place, and you jumped out and said that you want to compete with me, and you didn't even give me time to rest. Is this appropriate?"

"Uh... Indeed, it's not appropriate..."

Although you have been staying in Changle City without moving before, you don't have to run around to come to the Southern Hub City, but use teleportation to come here directly.

The more Tang Wenren thought about it, the more strange it was, but looking at the calm Du En, he hesitated and finally hesitantly said: "So, there are indeed some problems with my doing things this way, so it is reasonable to make a little bit of a jackpot?"

At the end, he couldn't help but hesitate.

So, why did it come to this?

How come the person whom Chang Meng trusted so much seemed to be so calculating and a little profit-driven?

This shouldn't be the case, right?

Tang Wenren was a little confused.

But Du En just struck while the iron was hot and tentatively added a premise: "No matter if you win or lose?"

What a good way to get something for nothing!

No wonder they had a disagreement!

The great monks thought so and knew roughly what would happen next, but they were not angry or dissatisfied. Rather, such a situation was actually better for them.

Meng Changqing could tolerate Du En like this and still trusted and relied on him. Then in the future, he would naturally be able to tolerate them becoming similar!

So.

"Give it to him."

An old voice sounded in Tang Wenren's ears.

Something quietly appeared in his hand, which made his face jump and his expression stiff. However, he did not directly state the inevitable conclusion, and he also took precautions: "You won't give up at the beginning, right?"

"No."

"You should give your all, right?"

"No."

"Hmm?"

"It's just a competition, not a life-and-death fight, why do you have to give your all?"

If someone really fights to death, both sides will definitely be in a big headache and feel difficult to deal with. Even if there are so many great monks, even real people watching, it is impossible for anyone to really die, but if they fight each other, it is actually not good, and the impact is quite bad.

Not to mention that Du En didn't want to make it like this, others also didn't want to see it.

Tang Wenren felt this atmosphere, and for a moment he felt that his serious self seemed a little out of place.

At such a young age, he finally experienced the taste of being unable to control himself.

However, he was still a little stubborn, so he emphasized: "Then you shouldn't be perfunctory, right?"

"No."

Du En's answer was the same as always, without any hesitation.

Tang Wenren was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "It seems that I have already lost before it even started."

He sighed and showed the prize in his hand.

A jade slip.

Three words engraved on it.

Wan Yu Shu!

The Southern Hub City was quite well prepared, and took out this top-grade magic as a prize for the competition.

Du En looked at it at this time, and his expression was still as calm as before, but it gave people the feeling that he had become much more serious.

Tang Wenren's eyelids twitched slightly, and he wanted to complain about something, but when he really wanted to speak, he couldn't organize it.

Anyway, it was weird. After talking with Du En, this weird feeling jumped out from time to time, and the presence was very strong.

"Where to fight?"

"Here!"

Tang Wenren put away the prize, stabilized his mind, and his expression and tone became serious.

Huh? !

Yang Xin, who was also present at the moment, was even more shocked.

I am still here...

The teleportation square suddenly glowed with light, and a vast space was woven directly on the spot by the real person. He, the reception deacon, was insignificant, so it only included the two geniuses of the same level.

The sky in this space was gray and bright, without the sun. The ground was endless, thick and silent, but lifeless and desolate.

Whoosh~

Tang Wenren had just stepped into it and stood in the sky. Before he could fully see the surroundings, he heard the strange sound of wind and sand whistling in his ears.

Du En had already taken action brazenly, or rather, before he stepped into the fighting ground, his magic had already been brewing, without any perfunctory, and now he was going for victory and winning!

Because he thought this was the fastest way!

Woo woo woo!

The wind and sand were strong, covering an area of ​​dozens of feet. After his cultivation was improved, his power naturally increased. Even though he was still only in the stage of minor success, he was no longer the same as before, and had some of the might of Yingsheng Rongsheng.

If he chose to enter that state at this moment, his power would naturally increase as well.

Of course, there was no need to do that now.

Facing such a whistling wind and sand, although Tang Wenren lost the initiative, he also showed a point that was better than Du En, who was good at fighting, that is, his background was relatively deep, and he had the teachings of the real master.

He was embarrassed in his behavior, relying on magic tools to protect himself, and his consciousness was blocked by the wind and sand. At this time, he was passive, and then.

Howling Golden Sword!

A whistling platinum sword, condensed out of thin air, was thirty feet long, and directly cut through the wind and sand, leaving a long gully on the ground.

Top-grade magic, mastered with ease!

Boom!

Before Tang Wenren could clear his mind and capture Du En's current situation, the wind and sand that were cut by the platinum sword and further torn apart by the sharp edge of the gold element suddenly ignited without wind, and the blazing golden flame burned the golden light, melting it quickly, just in line with the principle of fire overcoming gold!

Of course, this principle of mutual generation and mutual restraint of the five elements will only appear direct and bright when they are evenly matched or the restraining force is greater.

In other words, the power of Du En's golden flame technique at this moment is definitely not an ordinary small success.

The reason is also very simple.

"What a strong golden elixir flame!"

Tang Wenren suddenly felt ashamed of himself, because if he performed the golden flame technique at the same stage and spent the same mana, the power would definitely not be so great.

All because of the obvious gap between their golden elixirs!

I thought that as a genius, I had already practiced the golden elixir to perfection, but now it seems that I am really arrogant!

Before he had time to sigh, he was submerged in the blazing golden flame!

Then.

Fire trees and flowers!

One by one, bright red trees suddenly grew, quickly connected into a large area, which was particularly gorgeous and dazzling. In an instant, they swallowed the golden flames and turned them into nutrients, blooming more beautiful flowers with red and gold, hot and magnificent.

It was another top-grade spell, and it was also practiced to be proficient, and it relied on the upper advantage to turn Du En's golden flame technique into its own use!

The flowers were about to fly out, and the flowers were scattered, and they exploded and killed people in the gorgeousness.

But the next second, or the last moment, Du En's moves happened to follow one after another, so now he directly collided with it.

Click!

Crack!

Green trees, winding vines, and clusters of flowers and plants also broke out of the ground, trying to replace the ecological niche of the fire trees and flowers, standing proudly on the earth and spreading and covering.

"It's useless. The wood-growing technique is just the wood-growing technique after all. It's still too... huh?"

Standing in the fire trees, Tang Wenren was burned by the golden flames and had several holes in his protective robe. He was about to state this fact, but was suddenly surprised to find that something was wrong with the development of the situation.

It is true that those wood plants will be burned clean as soon as they grow out, and it is difficult to replace the trees carved by the flames. However, they seem to be endless. After being burned, they will continue to grow and grow. They can't be burned out at all!

After all, he was a closed disciple trained by a real person in the refining period, so he quickly noticed the clues.

Those insignificant, ice-covered small thorns on the wood plants.

Devouring wood thorns.

The combination of the two, coupled with the continuous supply of Du En's endless mana, made them seem to have obtained the true meaning of the wood element, and they would never die!

As a last resort, Tang Wenren could only choose to turn the gun around and let the flowers blow themselves up, to destroy the green wood roots that were still being pressed by the fire tree.

Boom boom boom...

The explosion began to sound.

Rumble boom...

There was a strange sound mixed in it?

Hmm?

Tang Wenren looked back in shock, only to see a mud and stone statue wading through the fire, ten feet high, with a thousand pounds of weight, crushing the ground, ignoring the fire, and more importantly, in his consciousness and feelings, there was no shadow of this big guy just now!

Add to that the wooden thorns that were just poking...

"It's the ice breath..."

Boom!

The mud and stone statue punched down violently, turning the original place into a huge pit, and also interrupted Tang Wenren's thoughts.

In a hurry, he took a posture of holding a tripod and took the punch.

Although he had practiced the middle-grade skills and now practiced the upper-grade skills, he could be regarded as having obtained a spiritual body, but it was just the same, the icing on the cake, no need to say more.

Therefore, he took the punch from the statue at this moment, and felt the blood surge, almost spitting out blood, his hands trembling, and the spiritual light emitted by the robe flickered frequently.

With a snap, like a bubble bursting, the protective robe was completely shattered.

Boom!

The statue took advantage of the situation to apply pressure, crushing him into slag.

It was just a water spirit mirror image.

Another top-grade spell.

The illusion flower disappeared.

It was still a top-grade spell, and it was a breath-retaining technique.

However, Tang Wenren, who had just avoided the mud and stone statue and calmed down his blood, was thinking about how to break the statue. He found that a large shadow suddenly covered his head, targeting Du En who might be hiding inside.

There was no need to look up, because the undisguised giant had already violently broken into his spiritual consciousness.

The terrifying giant cannon with a diameter of 18 feet was not far from the situation that Du En had seen before. It was a simple and rough pile of power. Naturally, it was also simple and unpretentious in performance.

It smashed down directly!

"Didn't we agree that it was not a life-and-death fight?!"

The main body of the giant cannon had not arrived yet, and the terrible air pressure had arrived first. Tang Wenren was almost crushed on the spot, and he couldn't help but roared in his heart.

You are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!

The sword came out!

With a clanging sound, the golden sword could defeat thousands of troops!

An eight-sided long sword with golden bones, white body, and unusually heavy weight flew out of his Dantian at this moment, swelled up in the wind, broke through the air pressure, and rushed straight to the giant cannon.

Ding!

The tip of the sword touched the giant cannon, making a slight sound.

It fell back with a slight tremor, and the giant cannon stopped sinking, cracked, and collapsed.

Tang Wenren raised his hand to take the sword, his eyes shining with gold, obviously to the point of exerting all his strength, the golden elixir continued to vibrate, urging the magic power to come out, which was extraordinary. He was about to turn around and pass the sword to the statue.

A pair of hands suddenly jumped out from where he was standing and grabbed his ankles directly.

? !

Before he could react, an irresistible and powerful force had already burst out.

When Tang Wenren came to his senses, only his head was left on the ground.

A bunch of third-grade high-quality magic weapons were hidden underground, pressing against his body without any dead angle, ready to move, just one last command away, and they would all explode on the spot.

Feeling the sharp thorns brought by the brewing of the special weapon ban, Tang Wenren felt as if he was under the guillotine, and subconsciously wanted to activate his own life magic weapon...

"It's almost done."

Du En's calm voice sounded.

Then Tang Wenren felt that his feet suddenly went empty, and his consciousness looked around again, and he had returned to the transmission square.

Ah?

I, I lost?

He looked across, the statue dissipated, and there was no one. The magic weapons flew behind him like swallows returning to their nests.

Suddenly, he felt a creepy feeling, which made him fly forward directly. When he turned around, he saw Du En calmly putting away the last magic weapon, looking at him calmly, as if he was surprised why he was so nervous just now.

Tang Wenren's old face turned red, and he finally reacted. He put away his life magic weapon and fell to the ground.

"I lost."

"Well, your fighting experience seems to be insufficient?"

Du En spoke directly.

In the previous competition, he actually kept the initiative, because he seized the initiative at the beginning, and took one step and three steps, a set of operations smoothly. If it weren't for the competition, Tang Wenren would have been seriously injured if he didn't die in that round of magic weapon explosion.

Next, he will enter the familiar close combat stage, try to avoid the advantages of the opponent's life magic weapon as much as possible, try to exchange injuries for life, and at least severely injure him.

In the next round, whether it is relying on the inexhaustible green spirit body to drag the opponent to death, or using other operations such as magic power, it can ensure that Tang Wenren will be defeated.

This side also admitted frankly: "Although the master has arranged some opponents for me in the past, they are basically the best of the best, and at most they are just slightly at the threshold of genius. As for the geniuses of the same level in our sect, although we have had some exchanges with each other, they are just to a certain extent. It is better to say that it is a performance than a competition."

It is not like you at all. You said that you would not risk your life to fight, but now I think that every move is aimed at how to take my life!

"You said it yourself, don't let me perfunctorily do it."

"..."

Yes, I asked for trouble, okay.

Tang Wenren was depressed.

Because this competition initiated by him, a disciple of the real person, can be said to have attracted much attention.

One side is the genius subordinate valued by Meng Changqing, and the other side is the direct disciple of the local real person. They can be said to represent the two visible and invisible forces in the south of Luoyu, and the future factions are in a formal initial contact competition.

Although it will not be difficult to end and it will not look good for both parties, they will also try to measure and judge the future development based on the results of the competition.

Now, although they are both geniuses, Du En is obviously much stronger.

Even though Tang Wenren was not able to release his full strength due to being passive all the way, the conclusion remains unchanged, because Du En also did not use his full strength!

The great monks of the Hub City and the Lord of the Hub City all got what they wanted, but no one blamed Tang Wenren, so they just moved away and watched silently.

On the teleportation square, the three people who could clearly feel this kind of unconcealed action, Yang Xin's legs softened and almost collapsed, Du En was still calm and his face did not change. Tang Wenren just breathed a sigh of relief, took out the prize for the competition, and walked over to hand it over.

"Your Excellency is really brave and not false. I am convinced. This time, the jade slip prize will be given to you."

"You're welcome."

Du En took it as a matter of course, and read it in front of him without any defense.

Click.

The method was obtained, and the jade slip was broken.

Tang Wenren couldn't help showing a hint of expectation.

I was expecting Duen to show off his skills on the spot, but he didn't.

What should I switch to now?

Not to mention that he doesn't have that many magic weapons, let alone he has to wait until he has mastered the Hundred Imperial Techniques before he can take advantage of loopholes and take shortcuts to save those 10,000 points of proficiency.

After all, this series of magic is not like the Giant Cannon Technique, which can bring about the reduction of the earth element, so you can't just bury your head and work hard, you have to pay attention to the situation.

"I am really ashamed that I didn't see your natal magic weapon this time!"

The square was calm, Tang Wenren blinked, feeling a little embarrassed, so he hurriedly said this.

"I haven't refined it yet."

"Huh?"

This time, not only Tang Wenren, but also Yang Xin, who had no sense of existence and had just recovered and wiped off the cold sweat, seemed very stunned.

He is so strong without his natal magic weapon, so when he has it, won't he be able to soar a lot?

They naturally wouldn't think that he didn't have a method to practice, or that he practiced too fast, but would only think that the method Meng Changqing gave him was too special, and he was probably asked to raise materials by himself as a way to practice.

"What's missing?"

Tang Wenren, who was thinking it through, asked tentatively.

"It's still one Ding Shang Gong away."

Du En answered straightforwardly.

It was indeed the style of that counselor!

Unlike his master, when he broke through to the Jindan stage, all kinds of materials were already prepared.

Tang Wenren couldn't help but sigh: "If I were in your position, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to reach this Jindan perfection safely!"

"Don't belittle yourself, your genius is not fake."

"Haha, I'm pretending."

Tang Wenren was a little embarrassed, and he changed his address when he was embarrassed.

When he came to his senses, he started to call you Your Excellency again, which seemed quite stubborn.

But to be honest, Du En didn't find a more appropriate way to address him. He might be older than him if he called him "brother", and they were not on the same path if he called him "fellow Taoist", so he didn't care about this and just followed the title of "Sir".

"Then, Sir, please leave for now, or you can show me the way?"

"Of course, it's my honor!"

So, Yang Xin, the reception steward, could only politely withdraw and let Tang Wenren show Du En the way and introduce the various features of the Hub City.
