Sunset dusk.
Time soon came from noon to chief hour.
On the martial arts field, seeing that fewer and fewer monks came to the competition venue, the leader, the ancient immortal, no longer waited.
He flew directly to the martial arts arena and rushed to the monks present: "Let's start the fight now. Which one of you wants to go first?"
Cheng Huo and the other five deep dive stage monks looked at each other, and then turned their attention to the blood pill stage monks.
According to the plan, in this competition, the Blood Pill stage monks will first take the stage to face the enemy.
This time, it was to test the strength of the ancient immortals.
Secondly, it was to consume the ancient immortals' physical strength as much as possible.
In the team of monks.
Ni Li, who was undoubtedly one of the strongest among the Blood Pill Stage monks, took the initiative to stand up.
He jumped into the air and flew to the martial arts arena. He cupped his fists and saluted the leader of the ancient immortal: "I'm in the Yinsijian Nili, I'm here."
He was only halfway through his words when the team leader Gu Xian interrupted impatiently: "Okay, okay, just do it. I'm not interested in knowing your name."
Ni Li frowned, and a trace of undetectable anger flashed in his eyes. The next second, he rushed towards the leader of the ancient immortal.
Most of the monks born in Yinsijian have been contaminated by the "power of flesh and blood", so their physical fitness is often stronger than that of ordinary monks.
Just like Nili.
Therefore, compared to manipulating magic weapons and casting spells to fight enemies, Ni Li is better at fighting enemies in close combat.
"This speed"
Below the arena.
Seeing Ni Li taking the lead in launching the attack, even Li Zhuo, who had always been very demanding, couldn't help but exclaim: "It's such a pity that you have such a physique and talent, but you don't have the opportunity to break through to the deep dive stage."
"Huh?" After saying this, Li Zhuo suddenly made a soft sound and suddenly stood up from his seat.
Because he saw an incredible scene:
In the arena.
Seeing Ni Li launching an attack, the ancient immortal who led the team did not dodge, but just stood there calmly.
The next second, there was only a muffled sound, and Ni Li's forward momentum was stopped, and he flew backwards from the place.
'Wow! '
Ni Li, who fell outside the ring, covered his chest and spurted out a large pool of blood. He fainted on the spot.
"How can it be!!"
Seeing that the leader of the team, Ancient Immortal, defeated Ni Li with just one move, Li Zhuo said with a look of disbelief: "With Ni Li's strength, it is not said that he can defeat the monks in the deep dive stage, but he can still hold on to twenty or thirty moves in his hands. No problem, but the team leader Gu Xian actually did it with one move."
As soon as he said this, Chengshuo and others around him all looked at him.
And Li Zhuo continued: "I can clearly feel that the other party also only has the cultivation level of the Deep Latent Stage, but he is also in the Deep Latent Stage. Why can the other party be so strong?"
Cheng Sheng said uncertainly: "What this ancient immortal uses seems to be a physical technique, a physical technique that can greatly improve physical fitness."
Saying that, Chengshuo tried to imitate the movements of the leader of the ancient immortal.
In the arena.
Gu Xian, the team leader who defeated Ni Li with one move, did not show any emotion. He just stood there and looked at Cheng Huo and others as if provoking.
Since Ni Li, the strongest among the Blood Pill Stage monks, has been defeated, the remaining Blood Pill Stage monks naturally no longer have the courage to take up the challenge.
At this moment, the five deep dive monks including Cheng Huo and others had to appear early.
As the weakest of the five deep dive monks, Zhong Ran stood up from his seat and planned to be the first to challenge.
But I saw Lei Lei on the side couldn't help but stand up and said: "Let me do it, I should be able to beat him!"
After saying that, he flew to the ring without any care.
Seeing that the person coming was a monk in the deep submergence stage, the leader of the ancient immortal showed a cautious look in his eyes, looking much more serious than before.
Although Lei Lei's emotional intelligence is low, he still knows that he cannot rely on his strength when facing powerful enemies.
As soon as he took action, he directly used his most powerful magic weapon, the Thunder Hammer, and threw it towards the leader of the ancient immortal.
"Hmph," the latter snorted coldly from his nose, his whole body flashed, and he disappeared from the ring.
Ju Rui and other blood-dan stage monks in the audience saw it and exclaimed: "Is this... the invisibility technique?"
"No."
Chengshuo shook his head and said: "The ancient immortal is still there all the time, but because he moved too fast, you can't see it."
As if to confirm what Chengshuo said.
The moment he finished speaking, the team leader Gu Xian appeared from the ring again.
He crossed over the Thunder Hammer and punched Thunder directly in the chest.
"Hmm" After receiving this blow, Lei Lei shrank into a ball and flew several meters away after smashing a corner of the ring.
But the difference from Ni Li is that Lei Lei only suffered some minor injuries after receiving this punch.
However, he has fallen off the stage.
So according to the rules, he lost.
"Can we continue to fight?"
In the arena.
Seeing that Lei Lei quickly stood up from the ground, the ancient immortal said: "Since you can fight again, you don't count as a loser!"
As he said that, Gu Xian raised his foot and stamped on the ground.
The entire arena was struck by this blow and shattered into pieces with a 'bang' sound. Wooden boards and gravel rolled to the ground.
Seeing this scene, Gu Xian said with satisfaction: "In this way, the subsequent competitions will no longer be restricted by the venue."
After saying that, he hooked his fingers towards Lei Ting again and said in a arrogant tone: "Come on, keep fighting!"
"Just wait!" Lei Lei, who fell into the ring, refused to be outdone.
He waved his hand, intending to control the thunder hammer and compete with the opponent.
"Friend Daoist Lei!"
Seeing that Lei Lei was about to fight again, Li Zhuo reminded him from the side: "After all, you and the ancient immortal are both monks in the deep dive stage. You are actually at a disadvantage because you rely too much on the blood-dan level treasure Thunder Hammer."
"I think you should stop controlling the thunder hammer remotely."
"You hold the hammer in your hand and just treat it as an ordinary weapon instead of throwing it. If you don't rely on the hammer for all your offensive methods, it will have a better effect."
"This seems to be true!" After hearing what Li Zhuo said, Lei Lei's face showed a look of surprise.
At that moment, he no longer tried to use the thunder hammer remotely, but moved his hand and controlled the hammer to fly back to his hand.
After changing his combat ideas, Lei Lei actually fought a close match with the ancient immortal.
The two fought together, and for a while they were evenly matched.
"What a speed!"
Below the arena.
Looking at the two figures, Ju Rui couldn't help but exclaimed: "It seems that after the cultivation reaches the deep dive stage, all spells and magic weapons are empty. Only one's own strength can truly determine the outcome of the battle!"
"What you said is not absolute."
After hearing this, Li Zhuo shook his head and explained: "The reason why I let Lei Lei compete with the ancient immortal is mainly because the treasure in his hand is too weak."
"After all, the thunder hammer is just a blood pill level magic weapon."
"If you hold it in your hand, it may bring some bonuses, but if you throw it out, it will have little lethality against the enemy."
"Unless that thunder hammer is a deep-diving magic weapon."
As Li Zhuo spoke, he suddenly laughed and said, "But I have never even seen a deep-diving magic weapon. Maybe, only ancient immortals who are proficient in weapon refining and alchemy refining have it!"
"Only the ancient immortals have it?" Zhong Ran was stunned when he heard this and said, "Then why haven't I seen the ancient immortals use it?"
"Because it's not necessary." Li Zhuo replied with a wry smile: "Although Lei Lei was able to resist the ancient immortal, his performance was actually very reluctant."
"His strength is so different from that of the ancient immortal. I can even vaguely feel that the ancient immortal never used his true strength from beginning to end."
"I guess it won't be long before the Thunder will lose."
"This" Zhong Ran was speechless for a moment.
And the fact is indeed as Li Zhuo said.
On the ring, after the ancient immortal and Lei Lei had passed nearly a hundred moves, they suddenly stopped.
Looking at Lei Lei who was constantly panting and seemed to have tried his best, Gu Xian sneered: "Okay, the warm-up is almost over."
"You are very good."
Gu Xian praised Lei Lei: "You have gained my approval, so in order to show respect, I plan to fight you with 50% of my strength."
"What!" Lei Lei was shocked when he heard this: "You didn't even use 50% of your strength just now?"
"good!"
After Gu Xian responded, he rushed out from where he was and punched towards Lei Lei's face.
Seeing this scene, Lei Lei instinctively wanted to raise his hand to parry.
But before he could take any action, he felt a huge force hit him in the face.
"I surrender!"
Lei Lei, who realized something was wrong, hurriedly threw such words out of his mouth.
The next second, he received a solid punch from the ancient immortal, and his whole body hit the ground heavily.
'boom'!
Along with a loud roar, a large pit several meters deep appeared on the ground.
The leader, Ancient Immortal, flew to the edge of the pit, looked at Thunder inside and said coldly: "Okay, I accept your surrender."
With that said, he grabbed the unconscious Lei Lei and threw it casually in front of Chengshuo and the others.
Looking at the unconscious Lei Lei, Cheng Sheng seemed to be unaware.
He just stared at the every move of the leader of the ancient immortal, and at the same time muttered in a low voice: "You can't be wrong! This ancient immortal must have practiced some kind of physical skills to have such strong strength!"
"Some kind of physical skill?" Li Zhuo looked confused.
Chengshuo didn't respond, but imitated every move of the ancient immortal more attentively.
The leader of the ancient immortal who was suspended in mid-air didn't care about this, but the monks around him said: "Then, which one of you will come up to fight me?"
"this"
Seeing Lei Ting's defeat, Zhong Ran showed a tangled look on her face. But after hesitating for a long time, she decided to go to the ring to fight.
"I'll do it"
Li Zhuo saw Zhong Ran's reluctance, so he stopped him and said: "This ancient immortal is far beyond what you can handle, and even I don't have much confidence that I can defeat him. "
"Master Li is not the opponent of the ancient immortal?" Zhong Ran said unexpectedly: "How sure is Master Li that he can defeat the opponent?"
Li Zhuo said uncertainly: "Thirty percent."
"Thirty percent?" Cheng Sheng on the side couldn't help but asked: "Then the ancient immortal is so strong?"
"Strong! Very strong!" Li Zhuo said: "Thirty percent is only when the opponent has no other trump card. If there is, it's hard to say."
After saying that, Li Zhuo stopped talking nonsense and jumped onto the ring resolutely.
at the same time.
Cheng Sheng showed a thoughtful look on his face, his eyes fixed on the leader of the ancient immortal, observing his every move.
On the stage.
Facing the leader of the ancient immortal, Li Zhuo felt like he was facing a formidable enemy.
As soon as he came on stage, he used his most powerful magic weapon, the 'Bone Skull', and threw it.
As soon as the skull was released, it turned into countless powders and enveloped Li Zhuo, forming a layer of white bone armor on his body.
Zhong Ran below saw it and asked in confusion: "Master Li, doesn't he plan to summon the Bone Giant?"
"This is the same as Lei Lei not using the Thunder Hammer."
Yun Rusong explained from the side: "The leader of the ancient immortal is too strong, so the magic weapons and spells have no use in front of the opponent."
"Instead of summoning bones and skeletons to fight and letting the empty door open to give the ancient immortal a chance, it is better to use all the bone powder to bless yourself."
"Well, I still don't quite understand." Zhong Ran looked confused.
Yun Rusong tried his best to explain more specifically: "Actually, you can understand it this way: the strength of our deep dive monks already exceeds most of the techniques and treasures."
"Therefore, it is difficult for the techniques and treasures to play their role in actual combat."
"No matter how powerful the techniques and treasures are, they are not as good as us deep dive monks themselves."
"So, instead of sacrificing them to fight against the enemy, it's better to use them on yourself. Maybe they can help a little bit."
"I understand." Zhong Ran was thoughtful.
Maybe because he didn't have much combat experience, Zhong Ran turned to ask: "But why did Lei Lei use his magic weapon to fight against the giant squid before, instead of blessing himself?"
"Of course it's because I'm afraid of death." Yun Rusong said matter-of-factly: "Although with the blessing on him, the combat power he can exert is obviously stronger, but in that case, it is impossible for anyone to directly go up and fight with the squid. Yes, after all, everyone cherishes their lives."
"That's true." Zhong Ran understood.
While Yun Rusong and Zhong Ran were talking.
On the battlefield, Li Zhuo accidentally made a move and was punched in the chest by the leader Gu Xian.
'Click'!
Along with the sound of bones breaking, the monks who were watching felt a strong wind blowing in all directions with Li Zhuo as the center.
This was the fist wind brought out by the leader Gu Xian when he punched. Under the raging wind, even the ground appeared several cracks.
The earth cracked open, and the surrounding sand and rocks were swept up into the sky by the fist wind, causing bursts of dust to fly.
The surrounding environment has been destroyed to such an extent, and it goes without saying that Li Zhuo, who took a punch from the team leader Ancient Immortal, needless to say.
His eyes were wide-eyed and he fell to the ground unable to speak for a moment.
In the arena.
The leader of the group, the ancient immortal, grabbed Li Zhuo's neck, lifted him into the air with one hand, and tried to crush him to death in front of all the monks.
He wanted to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.
"We surrender!" Seeing that his friend was dying, Yun Rusong shouted hurriedly from below the ring: "Friend Daoist, stop it! We surrender! Brother Li can no longer continue fighting. You don't need to kill them all like this."
"Okay, then I'll let you go." The team leader Gu Xian participated in this competition with the purpose of piercing the heart and destroying the morale of the monks in the Liang Kingdom, rather than killing people.
So after hearing Yun Rusong admit defeat, he threw Li Zhuoye in front of Chenghuo and others.
His words and deeds exuded an indescribable sense of oppression: "Then, who are you going to fight next?"
"this"
Yun Rusong was speechless for a moment.
His strength is comparable to that of Li Zhuo. Since Li Zhuo is not his opponent, it is naturally impossible for him to defeat him.
Going up at this time will only consume our remaining combat power in vain, which is really unwise.
"No one dares to come up?"
On the ring, the team leader Gu Xian looked around and said in a arrogant tone: "If no one comes up, I will treat your Daliang Kingdom as giving up."
"Since you lost, everyone will have to follow Master 'Wu Cui''s rules from now on."
The team leader Gu Xian announced: "So starting from today."
"Wait a minute!" At this critical moment, Cheng Sheng from below the ring suddenly interrupted him and jumped onto the ring.
"Survive!" Yun Rusong saw this and said anxiously: "There is no need to continue fighting, you can come down first!"
"It doesn't matter."
Cheng Sheng turned back to Yun Rusong, and at the same time, he said to all the other monks: "I have seen through the ways of the ancient immortals."
"I have completely learned their skills just after observing them."
"My current strength should not be inferior to theirs!"
"The ancient immortals still have martial arts?" Yun Rusong was stunned when he heard this: "So, they didn't crush us because of their physical fitness? But because of some secret method?"
It’s not just Yun Rusong.
The team leader Gu Xian also felt puzzled: "When I first started, was there a specific method? Why didn't I know it?"
"Stop pretending."
Chengshuo showed an 'I understand' expression on his face and said with a smile: "If I guess correctly, the exercise you practice should be a profound physical skill."
"This physical skill can greatly improve your physical fitness, even to the point where you can ignore all skills and treasures."
"It is precisely because of this that you can defeat Fellow Taoist Thunder and Master Li Zhuoli."
"Huh? Is there something wrong with your brain?" The leader of the team, Ancient Immortal, felt even more confused: "Our power comes from the supreme Lord Wu Si."
"When did we learn advanced physical skills? Is that necessary?"
"snort,"
Faced with Gu Xian's rebuttal, Chengshuo didn't explain much. He just sneered and said, "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if you don't admit it. Anyway, I've realized it."
At the same time, his overall momentum began to skyrocket.
Everything seemed to be exactly what Cheng Huo had just said: he had really learned a profound physical technique that could be used to improve physical fitness.
"So strong momentum" After feeling the rising momentum of Cheng Shuo, the expression of the team leader Gu Xian gradually became solemn.
At the same time, he felt weird no matter what he thought: "Are you really crazy, or are you pretending to be crazy?"
"I've obviously never practiced any physical skills!"
"So what did you realize?"
