As Senior Brother Lu finished preparing the magic formula in his hand, several thunderbolts struck into the red mist, with lightning and thunder rolling through the red clouds. Lightning shone in all directions. After a moment, the red mist dissipated, and only the Ning Tao's hair was stiff and his face was as black as coal.
At this time, the Foundation Establishment Elder standing outside the field breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ning Tao's life was intact.
Ning Tao, who was like charcoal, held the sword secret in one hand, and the Qinghong Sword instantly turned into a stream of blue-red light and flew towards Senior Brother Lu on the opposite side. Inadvertently, the tip of the sword stopped at the tip of Senior Brother Lu's nose.
At this time, Senior Brother Lu had big beads of sweat on his head, and said with a trembling voice: "I surrender."
At this time, Feijian turned around and returned to Ning Tao's hand, then raised his hand to Senior Brother Lu and said, "I'm sorry."
Upon seeing this, the Foundation Establishment Elder outside declared Ning Tao the winner. At this time, Ning Tao walked off the stage tremblingly, his body twitching from time to time.
In fact, Brother Lu's series of attacks stunned the unprepared Ning Tao. When the thunder broke through Ning Tao's layers of protection, there was not much power left.
Ning Tao directly used Hunyuan Gong to resist the thunder. Although he was not injured, it still made Ning Tao miserable.
After the competition ended, everyone in the audience who was originally shocked broke out into discussions. In the stands, Ning Tao sat cross-legged in a quiet corner and took some pills to recover.
When he was almost recovered, he condensed a water mirror and carefully arranged his makeup. It took him a long time to lose sight of his previous embarrassed appearance, and then he came to the ring to watch the battle and understand everyone's methods.
Soon the top ten in this arena will be decided, and then there will be two final battles tomorrow.
Yang Song and Pan Yue also advanced successfully, while the others were eliminated.
Ning Tao, who lacked actual combat experience, never thought that he would almost capsize in the gutter when his cultivation was suppressed, but this also reminded Ning Tao not to underestimate anyone.
But after this experience, I believe Ning Tao will pay more attention in the future.
After all the top ten in the three arenas were decided, a foundation-building elder put thirty jade sticks with fifteen sets of numbers on them into a jade tube and asked the disciples to draw them one by one.
After all the disciples had finished drawing, the elder asked everyone to return the jade lots in their hands one by one and tell the others their numbers.
When he read the names of Ning Tao and another senior brother, Ning Tao looked around and saw an ugly-looking man looking at him. Although there was a smile on his face, his face looked nothing like them. The good man looked even more vicious when he smiled. Ning Tao also nodded to indicate to him, and then avoided looking at him.
In the afternoon, the ten-year group had the final battle, in which Yang Song faced off against a disciple at the tenth level of Qi training.
Judging from his methods, this senior brother had obviously refined his magic power. Although he lacked experience in martial arts fighting, for Yang Song's cultivation level and the suppression of magical weapons, he succeeded in winning after spending some means.
After the battles in front of Ning Tao ended one by one, and when Ning Tao and the ugly man came on stage and greeted each other, Ning Tao learned that this man's name was Han Wuque, but his face looked nothing like him. Perfect appearance.
Ning Tao took a deep breath and shouted: "Senior Brother Han, be careful."
Then he moved the Qinghong Sword and used the flames. In the blink of an eye, he saw a ray of green rainbow light in front of Senior Brother Han. Before the Qinghong Sword could accomplish its feat, he saw Senior Brother Han punch Qinghong Sword. , knocking Ning Tao's Qinghong Sword aside.
Ning Tao's face slightly condensed when he saw this. He didn't expect that Senior Brother Han was practicing physical training that was rare in the sect. He saw that Senior Brother Han was wearing a black glove on each hand, and there was a flash of light on it.
Senior Brother Han on the opposite side knocked the Qinghong Sword aside and then sprinted towards Ning Tao.
Ning Tao didn't panic at all when he saw this. He used his old trick of directing a wave of fire clouds and spiritual flames. Senior Brother Han was trapped in the fire clouds and could not come out. He could only use his fists to keep hitting the surroundings. Attack your own flying sword.
Upon seeing this, Ning Tao knew that this attack would be difficult to achieve, so he took out another magic sword and used his spiritual thoughts to control the two flying swords to attack continuously. He only heard the sound of metal clashing from time to time in the red clouds. Ning Tao, who was holding the two flying swords and magic spells, gradually felt that his magic power was exhausted, and his offensive gradually weakened.
At this time, Brother Han in the fire cloud was about to run out of energy. Ning Tao, who felt that his magic power was about to run out, withdrew the magic sword and magic skills.
Just as he withdrew, Senior Brother Han transformed into a black shadow and rushed out, punching Ning Tao. The dark glove transformed into the shadow of Dou Da's fist.
Upon seeing this, Ning Tao knew that his remaining strength could no longer support the Aoki Shield to withstand the attack, so he put away the Aoki Shield and took a stance, preparing to fight.
At this time, everyone in the audience was secretly surprised by Ning Tao's actions. They said he was too late and he was too quick. They saw Senior Brother Han was about to hit Ning Tao in the blink of an eye. Ning Tao pushed out his palm and shouted softly: "Hunyuan Palm." "
A big gray palm print came into contact with Ning Tao's palm and black fist. With a bang, Ning Tao stepped back again and again. He took more than ten steps back before he stopped, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. However, Senior Brother Han just stepped back. He stopped in one or two steps.
But looking at his current appearance, he looked much worse than Ning Tao. The black clothes he originally wore, which were top-grade Taoist robes, were in tatters. The exposed skin looked like boiled red prawns, and there were scars all over. whole body.
Han Wuque lowered his hands, took a deep look at Ning Tao, and said, "Congratulations, junior brother, I lost."
However, the two people, who were originally about the same level of cultivation, had almost exhausted their energy in the previous fights. The last move consumed all of Han Wuque's energy. At this time, it would be difficult to win against Ning Tao who was at full strength. .
Moreover, Ning Tao still has a top-level defensive weapon in his hand, and he has already lost the possibility of winning. If the competition continues, the only one who will be injured is himself.
It's not worth it to get yourself seriously injured for a small competition between sects. Although it's a bit regretful that you, who had the instinct to qualify, fell early, it doesn't do any harm.
Ning Tao breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw this, raised his hands and said, "Thank you, senior brother, for accepting the offer."
Senior Brother Han took another deep look at Ning Tao and walked off the stage. At this time, Elder Ji Zhu announced that Ning Tao had won, and the audience was in an uproar.
Nowadays, Junior Brother Ning, whom everyone is not optimistic about, always refreshes everyone's understanding. What everyone didn't expect the most is that this Junior Brother Ning is actually a rare dual practitioner of law and body.
If he hadn't cultivated both body and law, would Junior Brother Ning be practicing at the same speed as Yang Song and Pan Yue, the two most talented disciples in recent years? Everyone couldn't help but secretly smacked their lips after thinking about it.
After the game, Ning Tao came to a quiet place, took out the recovery mana and the healing elixir prepared for Xiao Bi, secretly adjusted his breath, recovered his mana and injuries, and prepared for the final battle.
Time passed quickly, and Ning Tao, who had recovered his mana and injuries, stood under the stage waiting for the end of this round of battle.
After this round of battle ended, the elders of the outer sect announced the advanced list and began the next round of competition.
Soon it was Ning Tao's turn to wait in the audience. Ning Tao, who was waiting with all his strength, found out that the senior brother he was fighting against had been injured in the competition, so he mobilized his defense with all his strength.
Constantly changing the way of attack, fighting back and forth with the senior brother on the opposite side, constantly exercising his adaptability in actual combat. When the senior brother on the opposite side is exhausted, he then attacks fiercely and directly knocks the senior brother off the stage. , obtain victory.
At this stage, Ning Tao has successfully qualified for the group qualifying and has become one of the top ten in the group. The fat Taoist and the tall and thin Taoist standing in the audience saw Ning Tao's whole game and looked at each other with eyes filled with joy. Bitterness and helplessness.
The two people who already know the details of Ning Tao can no longer avoid all the consequences of the failure of this gambling battle. Although they also have the support of Elder Jindan behind them, the strength and status of Danchenzi behind Ning Tao is inferior to that of Elder Jindan. Stronger in the middle.
As foundation-building monks with many years of experience, the two of them knew many inside information that their disciples did not know. Dan Chenzi, as one of the strongest elders of the sect's Golden Core Perfection, was only one step away from becoming a baby from the Shattered Pill.
And I heard that Zhang Wuji, the eldest disciple of Dan Chenzi, has also been preparing for elixir formation in recent years. When the time comes, he will face a Nascent Soul and a golden elixir elder.
Even if Ning Tao is just an ordinary Jindan elder, the two hundred thousand spirit stones are still worth it. Ning Tao goes to his master to complain, and then brings him to ask for an explanation. When the time comes, he will have to pay just the amount. To return it, the two masters would have to lose face and make the two masters displeased with it.
However, the two of them did not expect that there would be such variables in the organized gambling this time. However, it was too late to talk about this at this time. They should prepare the spirit stones honestly and form a good relationship with them. According to the cultivation speed of Junior Brother Ning, Cultivation of both Dharma and body may never be useful one day.
Although the two monks who were good at business could not avoid losses, they had already begun to plan for the next benefit.
Ning Tao, who has qualified to qualify for the group, feels physically and mentally happy at this time. There is no need to worry about training resources for the next period of time. He can have more time to plan his own training system and make himself more perfect.
But now we still have to face a very important question, that is, whether these two foundation-building monks are willing to admit their guilt. However, Ning Tao is not worried about this at all. Even if there is a Jindan elder standing behind them, who is it? Don’t have a backer yet? Besides, as a master, isn’t this one of his main purposes of seeking justice for his disciples?
Ning Tao, who returned to the stage, stood quietly and watched the raging battle on the stage. After watching it for a while, he moved to other arenas to observe and learn.
Time passed quickly, and all the battles in various arenas were over. Ning Tao, who was about to go to the gambling hut to receive the fruits of his victory, bumped into Yang Song and Pan Yue, who were looking for him, and they went together.
