The Mortal's Path to Immortality

As Cao Rui finished speaking, the entire arena was filled with a cold atmosphere.

At this moment, the air condensed into a large number of ice crystals. They fell down in a gust of rain.

And Youlan was naturally in the attack range of this magical power.

Youlan immediately condensed her magic power and surrounded herself with it, forming a protective shield.

However, this extremely cold breath was pervasive. Although the protective shield condensed by Youlan could block the ice crystals, it was not enough to block the coldness that hit the soul directly.

Youlan's body couldn't help but tremble.

At this time, Cao Rui didn't give her a chance to breathe.

He quickly came to Youlan.

The ice crystals floating in the sky gathered at one point under Cao Rui's control.

The overwhelming ice crystals attacked Youlan. Youlan was under this terrifying ice crystal attack.

Soon she couldn't resist and retreated again and again. "Crack!" With a crisp sound, the protective shield that Youlan had worked so hard to condense was shattered.

Seeing this, Cao Rui controlled the ice crystals to stab Youlan. Youlan's body was soon pierced with blood holes by the ice crystals.

Blood gushed out, and before it fell to the ground, it was frozen by the frost.

Not long after, Youlan's body was completely wrapped by the terrifying ice crystals, turning into a crystal clear ice sculpture.

At this time, if Cao Rui smashed the ice sculpture again.

Youlan's body would also be torn into pieces. "God of War Challenge Round 7, Cao Rui wins!"

At this time, the referee of this game shouted. And the people in the stands also reacted.

"Is it won?" "Cao Rui's magical power is extraordinary. I'm afraid it is also a magical power that can only be mastered by a cultivator in the God Transformation Stage."

"I seem to have seen this magical power. Isn't this a magical power unique to the city guards?"

Many spectators in the stands immediately recognized the origin of the magical power used by Cao Rui.

Everyone was a little surprised that Cao Rui used this move. But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense. "Cao Rui actually cultivated the North Sea Ice Flame to the minor success level!" On the stands, Zhao Chenghai's eyes showed a strange color.

He also cultivated the North Sea Ice Flame.

Zhao Chenghai, who was in the Refining Void Stage, only cultivated the North Sea Ice Flame to the major success level.

But Cao Rui is only in the early stage of the Spiritualization Stage, and he can cultivate the North Sea Ice Flame to the minor level.

In time, Cao Rui's attainments in the North Sea Ice Flame may even surpass himself!

The North Sea Ice Flame is one of the magical powers attached to the North Sea Shooting.

All city guards can practice it.

Among the techniques of the Spiritualization Stage, it is not one of the top ones.

But it takes at least several decades to cultivate to the minor success level.

If Zhao Chenghai remembered correctly.

This Cao Rui should not have been in the city guards for a long time.

In this short period of time, Cao Rui was able to cultivate the North Sea Ice Flame to the minor success level.

It is enough to show that Cao Rui's training speed in terms of martial arts is very terrifying.

Zhao Chenghai once again realized that he might have bet on the right thing.

"Cao Rui, I wonder how many surprises you can give me?" After winning this battle, Cao Rui is only three games away from becoming a god of war.

The enemies behind will only be more difficult one by one.

Cao Rui still has four years left.

However, considering that the city guard competition will be held in two years.

If Cao Rui wants to make a breakthrough before the city guard competition.

The time for this god of war challenge may have to be compressed.

After Cao Rui defeated Youlan, he breathed a sigh of relief. Youlan's strength is not bad, even if Cao Rui wants to defeat her, it is not easy.

Of course, this is because Cao Rui's luck is bad. He was unable to cultivate the North Sea Ice Flame to the great perfection before the game.

If he could cultivate the North Sea Ice Flame to the great perfection, this battle would definitely be much easier.

On the stands, a graceful young man looked at Cao Rui below with a somewhat unhappy expression.

"Manager He, is this the person you are optimistic about?" "Yes, his talent and strength are indeed beyond my imagination. I didn't expect that he could make it to this round." This young man is the second young master of Cuixian Tower. In recent years, he has been competing with several other young masters for the position of the young master of Cuixian Tower.

"He does have some talent, but compared with me, he is still a long way behind." The young man said proudly.

"That's natural. Young master, you are extraordinary and disdain to show your face. Otherwise, this so-called god of war is not your opponent."

He Weixian hurriedly echoed.

The second young master has been pampered since childhood. Since birth, his body has been nourished by various natural treasures.

In recent years, there has also been a strong man in the fusion period who teaches him personally.

In He Weixian's opinion, Cao Rui, a powerless casual cultivator, is naturally not as good as the second young master of Cuixian Tower.

Below, Cao Rui walked down the ring after winning.

As usual, Old Mo came forward to ask Cao Rui when the next battle would be scheduled.

Cao Rui thought for a while and said that the next battle would be held in four months.

These four months were enough time for Cao Rui to cultivate the North Sea Ice Flame to the Great Perfection Realm.

It was rare to find a cultivator who could cultivate a God Transformation Magical Power to the Great Perfection Realm at the early stage of the God Transformation Realm.

If Cao Rui had the Great Perfection Realm of the North Sea Ice Flame, his chances of winning would be greater.

“Okay, then our next battle will be held after four rounds.” Cao Rui’s God of War Challenge this time had already helped them make a lot of money.

Mr. Mo even wanted to sponsor Cao Rui. But rules are rules. If Cao Rui wins, the reward will not be reduced.

If Cao Rui fails to complete the challenge.

This Yuanshi can't be given first.

If a precedent is set, the future God of War Challenge will be meaningless.

And Cao Rui is now ready to fight again for the tens of thousands of Yuanshi.

After leaving the competition venue. Cao Rui saw a young man holding a folding fan and took the initiative to come over. "Boy, you have good talent, but you are too arrogant."

Cao Rui looked up and looked at this person. He clearly remembered that he didn't know this person.

"Who are you?" Cao Rui asked puzzledly.

"Huh!" This person did not answer Cao Rui's question, and left after leaving an unfathomable back.

Cao Rui only felt that this person might have some problems with his brain, so he ignored him.

Once again came to the second floor of the restaurant, Zhao Chenghai had been waiting here for a long time.

"Cao Rui, how long have you been practicing this North Sea Ice Flame?" Zhao Chenghai asked curiously.

"It's about a little over a year." Cao Rui answered after calculating.

"Has it been a year to practice to this level?" Zhao Chenghai's eyes showed a look of horror.

"Your talent in practicing supernatural powers is the only one I've ever seen!" Zhao Chenghai said, taking out two thousand Yuanshi and handing it to Cao Rui.

"Take it to practice, if it's not enough, just tell me."

For Cao Rui, the more Yuanshi, a practice resource, the better.

But Cao Rui also understood that Zhao Chenghai would just say that casually.

If he really didn't know what was good for him, he would ask for it.

There was no point in asking for less, and he might not give it if he asked for more.

Now, just keep these two thousand Yuanshi. Cao Rui naturally understood that if he took Zhao Chenghai's things now, he would have to return them in the future.

So he would ask for less if he could. The relationship between the two now is nothing more than Zhao Chenghai's appreciation of Cao Rui's potential and his willingness to invest in him.

Cao Rui is not ready to become a disciple in this spiritual world, nor does he expect a master to teach him everything.

After receiving the Yuanshi, Cao Rui returned to the cave to practice.

Just after practicing for a while, he heard a shout outside the door.

Cao Rui walked out of the cave and saw Nie Miao and several members of his team. "Boss, I heard that your God of War Challenge has reached the eighth round?" Lin Yufan asked excitedly.

"That's right." Cao Rui nodded. As long as he wins three more games, he can get at least tens of thousands of Yuanshi. Of course, Yuanshi is secondary. The main thing is that he can attract the attention of many people in the North Sea Holy Land.

The road ahead may be easier.

"Boss, you are so awesome. Today is a happy day. Let's celebrate!" Lin Yufan said.

Nie Miao beside him also nodded and said. "I'll treat you guys, please go have a meal!" Cao Rui thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

There is no doubt that Nie Miao and Zhao Chenghai thought the same thing.

He saw his potential and wanted to make friends with Cao Rui.

Cao Rui never minded making friends. As long as you don't stab him in the back.

The group came to a restaurant, and after three rounds of drinks, Nie Miao said. : "Cao Rui, you have a certain reputation among our grassroots."

"Even if you lose in the next round, you have done your best!"

Cao Rui then realized that Nie Miao thought that he might not be able to win another game.

That's why he asked Cao Rui to have a meal at this time.

Cao Rui did not tell Nie Miao that he was confident that he could cultivate the North Sea Ice Flame to perfection within four months.

"Captain Nie, if I can successfully challenge the God of War, does this mean that I will have no rivals among the early stage cultivators of the North Sea Holy Land?" Cao Rui asked with some curiosity.

He was confident in his own strength, but he felt that the title of God of War seemed to come too easily.

"It's too early!" The drunk Nie Miao shook his head.

"This competition is to select some talented monks from the public."

"But those Tianjiao who have been cultivated by major forces since childhood are disdainful of fighting in the competition for tens of thousands of yuan."

"Many Tianjiao have been fed with various top resources since childhood, so how can they have the leisure time to perform on the stage?"

Cao Rui's heart sank when he heard this.

It seems that even if he becomes a Tianjiao, he is far from invincible among the monks of the same level.

Not to mention, if Cao Rui fails to challenge successfully in the end, there will be even more people who can beat him in the entire Beihai Holy Land City.

"Brother, don't think too much. We are all ordinary people without backgrounds. We can't compare with those Tianjiao. You are already very powerful to have come this far! At least in the future, there is a great hope to cultivate to the realm of refining emptiness!" Nie Miao comforted.

Cao Rui was not discouraged.

He just knew that even if he became the so-called God of War, he was not proud and complacent.

After a meal, Cao Rui returned to the cave and continued to practice with peace of mind.

In a blink of an eye, four months passed, and Cao Rui ushered in his eighth battle.

This time, Cao Rui's opponent was a strong man.

Before going on the stage, Cao Rui had already learned the basic information of this man.

The man's name is Yang Dilei, and he also has a good physical cultivation.

Three hundred years ago, he broke through to the early stage of the transformation of the spirit. After stagnating in the early stage of the transformation of the spirit for three hundred years, various combat techniques have been perfected.

Today, there are as many as fifty cultivators in the refining period on the stands.

Not only Cao Rui, but Yang Dilei also wants to show his strength.

If he can get the appreciation of the big man, he won't have to fight here.

After both sides are ready, the battle officially started.

"Boy, I asked my friends, although your North Sea Ice Flame is powerful, it takes a while to charge. I won't wait for you to charge like Youlan." At the beginning of the battle, Yang Dilei rushed towards Cao Rui like a cannonball.

Yang Dilei and Youlan are friends, and the two sides have fought many times. Of course, Yang Dilei won more than he lost.

But it is still far from being able to crush Youlan.

In front of a real top master, a small mistake may be caught by the opponent.

And Yang Dilei is only slightly better than Youlan in details.

At the beginning of the battle, Cao Rui fell into a disadvantage.

Facing Yang Dilei's swift attack, he could only parry.

The diamond glass body was pushed to the extreme by Cao Rui. Facing Yang Dilei's attack again and again, a violent shock sound echoed on the ring.

"Isn't Cao Rui's spiritual sense very powerful? Why not use spiritual sense to attack?"

"Cao Rui has shown his skills before, and Yang Dilei is not a fool. Don't look at him attacking Cao Rui like a storm. As long as Cao Rui shows signs of counterattack, he will react immediately."

Yang Dilei's attack was fierce. After the battle lasted for a while, he suddenly roared wildly.

The next moment, a huge lion phantom appeared behind Yang Dilei, and the lion exuded a terrifying pressure, which almost made Cao Rui breathless.

In addition, the lion's huge claws kept slapping Cao Rui.

A crack soon appeared on Cao Rui's diamond glass body.

After Cao Rui took a heavy blow, his body retreated violently.

At the same time, he began to accumulate power in his hands. "Want to use Beihai Ice Flame? I won't give you this opportunity!" Seeing Cao Rui's starting move, Yang Dilei's face changed. The next moment, he roared wildly, and the terrifying sound waves vibrated, and Cao Rui's body was unstable.

The accumulation of Beihai Ice Flame was also interrupted.

"Crack..." Accompanied by a crisp sound, Cao Rui's diamond glass body was shattered again.

Although this is the diamond glass body of the God Transformation Stage.

But under the swift attack of the same God Transformation Stage cultivator, it can't hold out for too long.

"Haha, your physical defense has been penetrated by me. If you don't want to die, just admit defeat!" Yang Dilei's arrogant voice sounded.

Cao Rui did not respond, and his body was blown back by the huge force, and blood soon stained the entire ring.

"Is Cao Rui finally going to stop here?"

"I bet a thousand yuan stones, betting that Cao Rui will stop in the eighth round. Am I going to make it?" Everyone was excited to see Cao Rui being beaten without the power to fight back.

Cao Rui's physical cultivation ability is indeed strong, but the opponents in the last few rounds are not ordinary people.

Their offensive is fierce, and it is only a matter of time to break Cao Rui's glass body.

But before, Cao Rui's glass body was forced, and everyone really couldn't think of how Cao Rui would turn the tables.

Last time, Youlan was careless and gave Cao Rui time to accumulate momentum.

Now, Yang Dilei has learned from Youlan and will never give Cao Rui so much time again.

"Admit defeat now, or I will kill you!" Yang Dilei's arrogant voice sounded.

The vitality of a cultivator in the Spiritualization Stage is much stronger than that of an ordinary cultivator.

But it takes a lot of time to rebuild the body after it is destroyed.

Especially for cultivators like Cao Rui who spend a lot of time and energy on physical cultivation.

"You have already lost!" Cao Rui stood up and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"This is simply the funniest joke I have ever heard. You are covered in wounds, but now you say, I am going to lose?" Yang Dilei felt that Cao Rui might be confused.

Cao Rui stopped talking. His spiritual consciousness condensed. "Cone Spirit Thorn!" A large amount of spiritual consciousness condensed into a sharp needle. Pointing directly at Yang Dilei's spiritual consciousness.

"Boy, I knew you had this trick a long time ago!" Yang Dilei's voice fell, and he circulated the mana in his body to protect his sea of ​​consciousness.

The spiritual consciousness needle condensed by Cao Rui hit Yang Dilei's sea of ​​consciousness, and it only caused his sea of ​​consciousness to vibrate for a moment.

In just one breath, Yang Dilei came back to his senses.

If Yang Dilei was in his prime, Cao Rui's needle would probably not be enough to make him lose consciousness for a moment.

"North Sea Ice Flame!" At the moment when Yang Dilei lost consciousness, Cao Rui had already gathered his strength again.

"I won't give you time!" Yang Dilei said, and was about to interrupt Cao Rui.

Then he saw that Cao Rui's attack had been completely solidified.

"What's going on?" Yang Dilei looked at Cao Rui in disbelief as he emanated a cold and frosty chill.

The next moment, the entire ring was covered with frost! Yang Dilei's figure was also frozen by this terrifying extreme cold.

Cao Rui took advantage of the victory and launched a counterattack against Yang Dilei.

"What's going on? Why did Cao Rui's accumulation time decrease so much compared to before?"

"And the power of this North Sea Ice Flame has also increased greatly!" On the stands, a group of cultivators in the Spiritualization Stage were surprised.

Zhao Chenghai even stood up from the stands excitedly. "North Sea Ice Flame, Great Success!"

During the last battle, Cao Rui's North Sea Ice Flame was only at the Small Success stage.

It has only been a short time since Cao Rui's North Sea Ice Flame has reached the Great Success stage.

In addition, as Cao Rui said before, he started practicing the North Sea Gun Execution, and it has been less than two years at most.

He has already practiced the North Sea Ice Flame to the Great Success stage!

Even some of the so-called Tianjiao that Zhao Chenghai had seen before were not worth mentioning compared to Cao Rui!

Under the influence of the Great Success stage of the North Sea Ice Flame, the temperature of the entire arena dropped sharply.

Countless ice crystals were controlled by Cao Rui and swept towards Yang Dilei.

Yang Dilei was naturally defeated under Cao Rui's swift attack.

The battle ended quickly, and Cao Rui successfully counterattacked again.

After the referee announced the end, the whole audience burst into thunderous applause.

How long has it been? Cao Rui has cultivated Beihai Bingyan from the small success stage to the great success stage.

After the battle, Cao Rui came to the restaurant again and met Zhao Chenghai.

"Your talent in cultivating magical powers is the only one I have ever seen in my life. I know that you work so hard for the City Guard Competition in two years."

"As long as you nod now, I can let you skip the City Guard Competition and directly enter the Holy Land Academy to study." Zhao Chenghai said.

After confirming Cao Rui's talent and potential, Zhao Chenghai didn't mind using some privileges.

"No need." Cao Rui shook his head and rejected Zhao Chenghai's proposal.

He has absolute confidence in his own strength. He believes that he can pass the competition and enter with dignity.

"Okay, I respect your choice." Zhao Chenghai did not force it.

"Next, there are only the last two battles left. Take a look and see if there is anything missing." This time, Zhao Chenghai did not give Cao Rui a reward directly, but asked Cao Rui what he needed.

Cao Rui thought about it and said. "I need some treasures that can improve my cultivation! If I can make my consciousness more condensed before the next challenge, I will have full confidence."

"Okay!" Zhao Chenghai nodded after hearing this. He took out some treasures and a book of exercises from the storage ring.

"This is a spiritual attack skill." "It takes at least ten or eight years for ordinary cultivators in the God Transformation Stage to get started, but I am very optimistic about you!" Cao Rui took the spiritual attack skill handed over by Zhao Chenghai, and wrote five big characters on it: "The Wheel of the Netherworld".

Cao Rui thanked Zhao Chenghai and received his reward.

Then he returned to the cave and continued to practice. ,　If you want to cultivate the North Sea Ice Flame to perfection, there is still a long way to go.

Before the next battle, if you can successfully cultivate this Netherworld Wheel Jue. ,　The chance of winning can also be increased.

Cao Rui checked and confirmed that this Netherworld Wheel Jue is indeed a spiritual attack magical power of the God Transformation period,　but it is not the top one.

If conditions permit, Cao Rui naturally does not want to waste time and energy to cultivate this magical power.

But now, Cao Rui has no other way to improve his strength.

It will take a long time for the North Sea Ice Flame to be perfect.

Cao Rui went to the Treasure Pavilion and bought some materials needed to cultivate the Netherworld Wheel Jue,　and then came back to retreat. In a blink of an eye, several months passed.

Cao Rui successfully cultivated this Netherworld Wheel Jue to the entry level.

Cao Rui's own cultivation realm has also reached the limit of the early stage of the God Transformation,　only one step away from breaking through to the middle stage of the God Transformation.

However, because the God of War Challenge has not yet ended, Cao Rui can only temporarily suppress his own cultivation.

After several months of seclusion, Cao Rui's spiritual consciousness has become more powerful.

And with the Netherworld Wheel Art, Cao Rui's spiritual attack method has become even stronger.

Cao Rui's main attack method is still the North Sea Ice Flame.

However, he does not need to delay time. As long as the Netherworld Wheel Art can affect the opponent for a moment.

It is enough for Cao Rui to condense the North Sea Ice Flame.

The opponent Cao Rui faced in this battle was a female cultivator who had been famous for a long time.
