Liao Fan and Zhang Yuanbai could indeed be invincible if they took action, but the disparity in strength between the two sides would be too great, and a win would not cause them much humiliation.
On the contrary, the more they refrain from taking action, the more humiliating it will be for Japan.
As for Lingji, although his strength ranks third among everyone, second only to Fan and Zhang Yuanbai.
But no matter in terms of appearance or age, he is the youngest one. Losing to him will only be more irritating.
As for the other people.
For China's talented people, they may not have learned anything else, but this method of protecting life and body is definitely the first to learn.
Pu Guang was born in Jiuhua Mountain, practiced the "Ksitigarbha Ten Wheel Mantra", and also practiced the Ten Wheel Heavenly Drum and the Prajna Treasure Banner, two Buddhist treasures.
Just relying on the Prajna Pillar to protect yourself can make you invincible.
The same as him is Zhang Chengyu. Not only does he have a Tai Chi diagram in his hand that can suppress all energy, he also has a Hunyuan Tai Chi robe on his body.
Coupled with the fact that the "Tai Chi Sutra" he has cultivated is unparalleled, it is enough to remain invincible.
He also has two swords, Black Turtle and Fire Snake, which have quite impressive attack power.
The Tianyin of Luojia Mountain and the pure nectar in the pure glass bottle in your hand can not only bring the dead back to life, purify the body and mind, but also the weight of the world.
Capturing people and protecting oneself each has its own magical uses.
Zhang Yuanyi was born in the Tianshi Mansion, and with a younger brother like Zhang Yuanbai, it goes without saying that there is absolutely no shortage of means to protect himself and his life.
After calling a few people over, Ling Qing and others also analyzed the fundamentals of Japanese cultivation for them.
Especially with Lingqing here, with his insight and innate energy, during the discussion between the two parties, he had roughly figured out his method through occasional demonstrations.
Let’s not talk about Buddhism in Japan for the moment. Although it has its own characteristics, it still belongs to the category of Buddhism.
Everyone in the dungeon has more or less interacted with Buddhists. Among them, Ming Ran, Puguang, and Tianyin were born in Buddhism, and the methods of Buddhism are naturally familiar to them.
The characteristic of Japan is Onmyoji.
The most important abilities are reflected in the three aspects of yin-yang and five elements, the power of speech and spirit, and shikigami.
Needless to say, Yin-Yang and Five Elements Techniques and Word Spirits are equivalent to Taoist spells and incantations.
And this shikigami is the main feature of Onmyoji.
Lingqing had not had much contact with them before, except for seeing their abilities when dealing with Taichi Abe.
But it was this contact that gave him a deeper understanding of Shikigami.
A shikigami is a spirit controlled by an onmyoji, and its power is related to the onmyoji it controls.
The most common shikigami are those specially cultivated by onmyoji from dead spirits and natural spirits.
Some Onmyojis sign corresponding contracts with ghosts and gods that have already formed their own powers, making them their own shikigami.
It is equivalent to a Taoist soldier trained by oneself, or a divine attack using divine magic.
Of course this is not absolute, but he has seen the Devil Fruit, Jinchūriki and Chimera Ants created by Orochimaru.
Plus the Force of Light at the Navy Headquarters, etc.
Lingqing feels that Onmyoji's abilities will also be combined with Japan's characteristic animation on this basis to increase its methods and power.
What Kawatani Makoto said is evidenced by Taichi Abe becoming Kyuubi.
It's just that they didn't show it in these more than ten days of communication.
However, everything remains unchanged.
After all, the foundation is here, where can it be changed?
After three days of preparation, Lingqing and others, led by Dong Yifang, headed to the competition venue in Dongshan.
Along the way, you can see many Japanese nobles riding in sedan chairs or riding horses.
There are many civilians. It seems that Japan is also very concerned about this competition.
The entire venue is shaped like a Colosseum, with the stands in the middle being reserved for VIPs to watch.
Even the Emperor of China, Ashihara, watched from the highest loft.
Takashi Abe, Miko Suuki, Monk Mingquan, Shi Fan, Zhang Hongren and Lingqing are also here.
Lingqing could sense that the emperor in front of him did not have much power except that he had an inexplicable energy and was connected to a more powerful force.
Of course, as the supreme controller, it is naturally impossible for him to just appear here.
He is not only protected by Abe Seimei, but also by several samurai and monks who are also at the level of the Three Tribulations Earth Immortals.
There are also ghosts and gods hiding in the dark to protect you.
With this kind of protection, if Ling Qing didn't take action, Shi Fan, Zhang Hongren and others probably wouldn't be able to hurt him at all.
In addition to them, Sun Qinghou and others were waiting in the lounge on the left side of the competition venue with Ling Ji and others.
The other side is in the lounge on the right, and both sides are making preparations for the battle.
Hanakain Rintaro is now the chief vassal of Onyangliao and is responsible for the production, recording, sending and receiving, registration and management of official documents.
He is also a legendary Onmyoji, and he will be the host of this competition.
When one side admits defeat or loses fighting ability, the game ends and the result is announced.
Seeing that both sides of the competition were already in their respective positions and the nobles had already entered the venue, he stood in the field and coughed lightly.
The sound reached everyone's ears clearly, causing the noise at the scene to immediately dissipate.
"Welcome to the friendly exchange competition between Japan and China. This time, both sides will send six players to compete in a six-game competition.
Winning or losing is not the goal. What we want to see is to show the respective cultivation systems of both parties and verify their own cultivation results through competition. "
After first confirming the nature of the game, he looked left and right in the direction of both sides and said: "Now, twelve established players are invited to enter the venue for a drawing competition."
On the Chinese side, Ming Ran, Pu Guang, Tian Yin, Zhang Yuanyi, Ling Ji, and Zhang Chengyu all left the lounge and walked towards the center of the field.
On the other side, there are several people on the Japanese side who use their own methods and appear in extremely gorgeous ways.
The first person to appear was a girl. She jumped into the air and turned into a white fox in mid-air, dazzling in the sun.
When it landed on the ground, it transformed into a black fox, took one step forward, and came to the center of the field, only to transform into a girl wearing a bright red cherry blossom kimono, holding a Yin-Yang fan half-hidden in her hand.
Sakura rain fell on her out of thin air, reflecting her figure as beautifully as a painting.
"Kaori-sama!!"
Everyone in the audience burst into cheers when they saw her.
This is Kaori Abe of the Abe family, and she is also the biological sister of Taichi Abe.
"Ha~~~Cha!!"
With a strange roar, a naked, muscular figure with red hair like fire fell from the sky.
Like a meteor falling to the ground, a fire cloud turned into a shock wave and dispersed in all directions.
"Xiao Mingwang!!!"
The stadium suddenly burst into cheers again.
This is King Xiao Ming of the East Temple, whose Dharma name is Sun-centered Fire.
puff! !
Beside the sun-centered fire, a deep purple light rose up, bloomed like a lotus bud, and turned into a lotus to hold up a girl in white clothes and bare feet.
It's just that this woman's head is as smooth as jade, with no hair at all.
It was An Xin, a nun from Changjiguang Temple.
There is also a man wearing hunting clothes and holding a bat fan; a monk wearing a silk robe with a delicate face; and a young man wearing short-sleeved shorts.
The three of them were not so arrogant, but entered slowly like Ling Ji and others.
Hanakain Rentaro saw that everyone was in place, and with a wave of his hand, two boxes appeared between the two parties.
He pointed to two boxes, one red and one white, and said: "Each of the two boxes has six paper signs written with numbers one to six.
Two people who draw the same order of paper numbers are each other's opponents.
Now, let's get started, both parties. "
Hearing what he said, everyone stepped forward to draw out one after another.
You only know your own serial number, you don’t know other people’s serial numbers, and you can’t know who your opponent is.
After everyone opened the paper and saw their serial numbers, they knew what they were and then looked at Hanakain Rentaro.
"Then, please both parties show their serial numbers!"
Following Hanakain Rintaro's order, everyone on both sides turned the paper signs in their hands to face each other.
The Japanese side from No. 1 to No. 6 are: Abe Kaori, Kamo Haruto, Nikko Fire, Asakura Takaha, An Xin, and Qingquan.
On the Chinese side, they are: Zhang Yuanyi, Lingji, Puguang, Mingran, Zhang Chengyu, and Tianyin.
Hanakain Rentaro first announced the matches of both sides, and then said: "Then, Abe Kaori and Zhang Yuanyi will stay for the first competition, and Kamo Haruto and Lingji will prepare.
The rest can return to the auditorium to watch. "
Then he put away the lottery box and ducked to the edge of the competition venue.
As the referee on the scene, he needs to ensure the safety of both parties as much as possible when the outcome is determined.
Lingji and others returned to the lounge, where there was also a viewing seat specially reserved for them.
Abe Kaori held the yin-yang fan, which was much larger than the ordinary folding fan, and bowed gently, and a voice as crisp as a silver bell sounded, "Miss Zhang, please enlighten me!"
Zhang Yuanyi clasped his hands and saluted, with a flash of fire in his eyes, and said: "Miss Xiangori, please!"
After more than ten days of communication, several people have come to understand each other, at least the identities of both parties are clear.
One is the eldest daughter of the Japanese Onmyoji Abe family, and the other is the eldest daughter of the Zhang family of Longhushan, a Chinese Taoist sect.
Abe Kaori is proficient in fire shikigami, and Zhang Yuanyuan is also proficient in fire techniques.
The two are still very similar to a certain extent.
After the two greeted each other, they immediately started to move their hands. Zhang Yuanyi's eyes flashed red first, and his hands turned into flames and shot out two pillars of fire.
The fierce flames rushed straight towards the motionless Abe Kaori.
With a bang, Kaori Abe turned into petals flying down in the sky like a cherry blossom that had been exploded.
But she herself has disappeared.
"Ms. Zhang, such reckless behavior is unacceptable."
Kaori Abe's figure rang out in the sky above the venue, making it impossible to tell where she was.
"Also, thank you for your flames and the sound of fire and sound waves!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a roar of flames sounded, and the sparks in the air suddenly grew violently.
Wherever the sound waves hit, they turned into a sea of fire.
Within a moment, the entire competition venue was enveloped in flames.
