Chapter 87 Zhu Gaotai and Fei Ling

The spring breeze is like a pair of scissors, cutting the willow branches and warming the years. The spring breeze is warm, just like the breeze in summer blowing the bamboo curtains gently, which makes people feel enlightened.

Looking at the delicate bamboo leaves in the air above the courtyard, Li Yan fluttered his dark green robe and walked out of the courtyard.

The day of the Qi Condensation Competition has finally arrived.

Laojun Peak, there are twenty battle platforms rising on the super-large platform halfway up the mountain. There are more Qi Condensation disciples participating in the competition, and the number of battle platforms has also increased significantly, but the length of each battle platform has changed from the original fifty miles to five miles, which is obviously several times smaller than the Qi Condensation battle area.

Li Yan looked at the five areas of thousands of disciples, but still felt that there were fewer people than the last foundation building competition. Just looking at the foundation building masters in front of each peak, there are many futures. Only Li Wuyi, Wei Chituo, Yun Chunqu, Gong Chenying, Lin Daqiao and himself came to their Xiaozhu Peak. Even the three nephews did not come, and they all stayed in the mountain to practice in seclusion. The foundation-building period that came was mainly the top 40 nine, and most of the others came to cheer like Lin Daqiao.

As for the other peaks, Li Yan saw Gan Shi, the Chu brothers, and Wei Feng from the Four Elephants Peak; Wang Tian and his Taoist companions Zuo Shengyan, Li Zhi, and Zhang Cailian from the Lingchong Peak; Bailiyuan, Ning Qingqing, and Zhang Tai from the Laojun Peak. It was just that Zuo Shengyan looked at Xiaozhu Peak with a chill in her eyes, but she did not find Wen Xinliang, and Wang Tian was also staring at this side. The Buli Peak across the way was still blocked and could not be seen clearly. It seemed that Li Changting and Zhao Min were included. They both entered the top 49. Thinking of Zhao Min's slender and clear figure, Li Yan's heart was inexplicably fluctuated.

Soon after, the Jindan master arrived quickly, but the number of people was also much smaller than last time, with only a dozen people coming. Then, the same process was followed. After Yan Longzi said a few simple words, an elder of the sect's law enforcement hall announced the rules, then waved his hand and scattered red arrows, asking Li Yan and others to come and draw, and then announced the start of the game.

This time, the twenty battle platforms were supervised and judged by twenty foundation-building masters. These twenty people were drawn from various peaks, but in order to allow the forty-nine foundation-building masters who participated in the secret realm to watch the whole process, they were not asked to supervise the battle. For example, Li Wuyi was responsible for supervising the battle on one battle platform.

At this moment, Li Yan had a line of bright red small characters "33" next to the golden bamboo on the cuffs of his dark green robe. Looking at the small characters and the announcement voice of the blue light flowing slowly in different areas on the Qianli Liuguang Mirror in the sky, he did not find his number on it, and then silently thought about some people that Li Wuyi told him to pay attention to when he came, hoping to see their game before he went on the court.

Before the forty lines of small characters condensed by the blue light on the crystal screens of the twenty battle platforms dissipated, they were illuminated from all areas, and dozens of different colored escape lights shot towards different battle platforms.

After Li Yan glanced around, he finally locked his sight on one of the battle platforms. On this battle platform, the blue protective light shield at the edge was constantly flowing. In the center, there were already two people standing hundreds of meters apart and looking at each other. The Qi Condensation cultivators did not enter the shield like the Foundation Establishment cultivators, and they all stood in the air dozens of miles away. The Qi Condensation cultivators could not fly by themselves, and could only rely on spiritual tools and other objects to fly to the high platform. Generally speaking, both sides would collect the flying magic tools after entering the battle platform. After all, flying magic tools not only consume spiritual stones, but also consume spiritual power when activating the battle. They did not have the powerful spiritual power of the Foundation Establishment cultivators. If they were not careful, they might run out of spiritual power halfway through the battle on the battle platform, which would be tragic.

The battle platform that Li Yan was focusing on was occupied by a man of medium build, about 20 years old, with a head of short hair that stood straight up, a resolute face, a dark complexion, and a pair of strange drumsticks about one foot long. He was a disciple of Buli Peak, named Zhu Gaotai. The person opposite was a disciple of Lingchong Peak, one man and one beast. This man was about the same age as Zhu Gaotai, but he was tall and thin, with a sinister face. On his right shoulder squatted a half-human-sized, red mantis, which was constantly tilting its head, with a pair of big eyes rolling around, glancing at Zhu Gaotai from time to time. The aura of this insect was already in the late stage of the first-order spirit beast. A pair of huge black and red double swords crossed and rubbed against each other, with a row of hard sawteeth on them, and the intersection made a tooth-grinding sound, of course, this sound could not be heard through the Qianli Liujing.

The reason why Li Yan locked onto this battle platform was because Li Wuyi had previously introduced these two people. Zhu Gaotai, who has completed the tenth level of Qi Condensation, is a leader among the Qi Condensation of Buli Peak. It is said that he can be ranked in the top three among the outer sects of Buli Peak. He has practiced most of his basic immortal arts to the middle and late stages. He can send and receive as he wishes. He is good at using the "Urn Thunder Gu", which ranks 630th on the list of poisonous insects. This Gu is two inches long, but it can make a deafening sound. It attaches to the enemy's body surface to make the sound, and the recipient's body expands continuously, explodes and dies. This Gu insect makes a sound out of thin air. Although the sound shakes the world, it can only disturb the enemy's mind. Its most terrifying attack is to attach to the skin of a living being. Its four claws are deeply embedded in the skin. When it makes a sound at this time, the shock wave will be transmitted into the body of the living being through its limbs. The living being will expand like blowing air, and during this period, the internal organs will be attacked by the sound waves. It may be shaken into a ball of meat and die before the body expands to a certain extent.

The disciple of Lingchong Peak opposite him was also in the perfect state of the tenth level of the Condensation Qi Stage. Fei Ling was a wood-type expert. His companion spirit beast was the Blood Brown Knife Mantis, a fire-type beast ranked 637th on the list of poisonous insects. He was ferocious by nature and liked to eat all kinds of living creatures. The moment a pair of huge forelimb sickles cut into the body surface, the hard sawteeth with barbs on them were extremely hot. When they pierced into the opponent's blood vessels and tendons, the high temperature on the barbs would stick the blood vessels and tendons firmly to them. It would then pull up hard and directly pull out the blood vessels and tendons of the human body or other living creatures, causing the enemy to curl up in pain, as if the body was stretched and shrunk. It would then open its mouth and bite directly into the abdomen, and then look for the next tendon.

Unexpectedly, the two met in the first round. After sweeping all the crystal screens of the twenty seats, Li Yan locked onto this battle platform.

On the stage, the two faced each other for a moment. Neither side spoke, but continued to release their momentum, allowing their momentum to rise steadily. Just as the auras of both sides were rising, Fei Ling disappeared from the spot without waiting for the auras of both sides to reach their peak. This move of his was really experienced, and it was obvious that he was experienced in combat, disrupting the expected rhythm.

The next moment, a residual image in the field kept disappearing and reappearing, reappearing and disappearing again. In just a breath, it was close to Zhu Gaotai who was several hundred meters away. Zhu Gaotai seemed not to see it, and his aura was still rising. It seemed that he was about to reach the peak, and the next moment he could strike with the force of wind and thunder. Fei Ling's figure had appeared and disappeared in the fluctuations and was several feet in front of him. This was the best distance for attacking at present. With a light "sudden" sound, several green wind blades rotated into a half-moon shape and slashed towards Zhu Gaotai's neck, chest, abdomen, and legs. They were launched at the same time and there was only a light sound. He chose the most common "Wind Blade Technique", but it was undoubtedly the most correct at this time. At this distance, the wind blade technique was the fastest and most direct. He used the wind blade technique that had been practiced to the late stage of great success. It was extremely powerful and sharp like a needle in the rotation.

On the other side, there was a sudden wave in the air, and then the blood-brown knife mantis appeared two meters to the left of Zhu Gaotai. Li Yan did not see how it got there. The huge black and red double knives crossed each other with a clang, and a dark red light shot out from the intersection like an arrow, as if it was squeezed out by the huge double knives. This dark red light was as fast as lightning and reached Zhu Gaotai's head in a blink of an eye. Seeing this power, if he was hit, even if he had the protection of body spiritual power, he might not be able to block this attack. After the blood-brown knife mantis emitted the dark red light, its figure also pounced forward like a shadow, and its huge forelimbs slashed out fiercely.

In this way, Zhu Gaotai was trapped in the pincer attack of two masters of the tenth level of the Qi Condensation Stage. Just as the two attacks were about to land, Zhu Gaotai's originally upright and loyal face actually smiled strangely, and his body suddenly disappeared without a trace. Several green wind blades suddenly hit the air and shot rapidly into the distance. At the same time, a dark red light arrow also pierced the air diagonally, whizzing past, and then the figure of the blood-brown knife mantis appeared where Zhu Gaotai had just stood, and a pair of sickles with a streak of dark flames suddenly cut through the air.

At the same time, the surface of a place a few feet away was volatile, and an illusory figure quickly rose from the ground, and the figure quickly changed from light to real. He was seen holding a drumstick and throwing it into the air. Suddenly, the two drumsticks each turned into two giant cylinders about seven or eight feet high and twenty feet wide, and covered the area of ​​several dozen feet.

Li Yan's pupils shrank. The spiritual treasure was actually a rare spiritual treasure in the Qi Condensation Stage, but it was more than ten times more powerful than the spiritual sword in his hand.

This scene also fell into the eyes of many other people watching the battle arena. Many people showed envy. "I didn't expect that Senior Brother Zhu actually had a spiritual treasure. I didn't know this before."

"I did hear a little bit, but I couldn't be sure when I saw Senior Brother Zhu take out the pair of drumsticks just now. I heard that a year ago, Senior Brother Zhu and several other senior brothers teamed up to find a small palace in a desert. At that time, there were also a dozen people from Taixuan Sect. They had a fierce fight over the treasures in the palace. Senior Brother Zhu

This side lost two people, while the other side lost as many as eight or nine people. In the end, both sides robbed some treasures. I think this spiritual treasure was obtained that time." Another person said.

Li Yan was focusing on the field at this time. The two giant cylinders formed by the pair of drumsticks were very defensive objects at first glance. If you were covered by it, it would be difficult to get out. At this time, Fei Ling and the blood-brown knife mantis were in the center of the two giant cylinders. If they wanted to escape dozens of feet instantly, it would be too late.

And the next moment, an even more bizarre scene appeared. At the same time as the two giant drum-shaped cylinders covered the ground, the space a mile away suddenly twisted, and Fei Ling and the blood-brown mantis appeared there. At this time, his face was pale, and his breath was a little disordered. Zhu Gaotai was stunned, and then his face changed. He flashed and went around the side of a giant cylinder. He heard a few muffled "chi" sounds, and several vine thorns like giant pythons shot out from the ground and hit where he had just stood. If he was half a second slower, he would be hit by these huge vine thorns. Although he knew that there were foundation-building masters supervising the battle and would not let him die, serious injuries or defeat were inevitable.

However, before he could make any move, Zhu Gaotai's face changed again, and his figure flashed away from this place. When he reappeared, he was standing on the top of a giant cylinder. With a wave of his hand, another giant cylinder turned into a black light and shrank into his hand. It was still a drum hammer. He looked at the area where he had just stood. The vine thorns shot out of the space and the faint mist was floating and slowly dissipating. He turned his head and looked at Fei Ling a mile away, and said, "Brother Fei has great skills. I didn't expect that he has both wood and wind elements. The power of wind is extremely fast. The power of wood can actually release the 'Frost Vine Thorns'." He didn't expect that in addition to the wood element spiritual root of Lingchong Peak, Fei Ling also had a rare wind attribute spiritual root. Otherwise, it would be impossible to avoid the giant cylinder covered by his spiritual treasure "Breaking Sky Hammer". He escaped a mile away in just an instant. If he had reached the foundation-building stage, his speed would still be very fast. It was amazing, and he even had time to leave a hidden hand while escaping. If I had focused on his escape, I would inevitably fall into his trap. Fortunately, my spiritual sense was sensitive, and I didn't expect that he actually refined the "Frost Vine Thorn". This wood-type plant is very difficult to find. In addition to the unique attacks of vines such as thorns, entanglements, and windings, it also emits a highly toxic poison that is easily ignored. As long as people inhale it or get it on their skin, they will become stiff and severely unconscious after a few breaths. This is also one of the talents of "Frost Vine Thorn" for hunting.

"Brother Zhu, are you so low-level? Everyone thought that the gold-type attack of Buli Peak was the sharpest. I didn't expect that among your other spiritual roots, you actually have earth spiritual roots, and they are extremely high earth spiritual roots. Although the earth escape has not reached the realm of 'dust to dust, earth to earth', I think if you have built your foundation, it should not be far away. You should choose Sixiang Peak, and the achievement may be higher than Buli Peak." Fei Ling's face was pale. Obviously, the wind-type technique he just used exceeded the burden of his current realm.

Li Yan watched and pondered, his face extremely solemn. If he met such a person, how could he rely on to win?
