Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

"Senior Brother Zhang, are you alright?"

Seeing this scene, the members of the Three Souls Sect, who were just immersed in joy, became nervous again, and hurriedly gathered around Zhang He, asking him with concern.

Looking at everyone's nervous expressions, Zhang He waved his hand and smiled: "I'm… I'm fine…"

However, before he could finish speaking, another mouthful of dirty blood spurted out, and his face, already paler than paper, became even more ghastly.

When Chen Tian first saw Zhang He, he vaguely felt that his body was not in good condition, but he didn't expect it to be so serious.

Chen Tian frowned and asked in a deep voice: "How did Senior Brother Zhang become like this?"

However, after hearing Chen Tian's words, no one was willing to answer. They all lowered their heads, clenched their fists tightly, looking extremely angry.

Seeing them like this, Chen Tian felt even more that something was wrong, so he asked the young man surnamed Gu, whom he was somewhat familiar with: "Tell me, how did Senior Brother Zhang get injured?"

Hearing Chen Tian call his name, the young man surnamed Gu was about to answer, but was suddenly stopped by Zhang He, who said: "Hey, Junior Brother Chen, you don't need to worry about me, it's just a minor injury, it's nothing, let me take a break first, and then I'll go out to fight."

However, although Zhang He said this, his complexion still did not improve, remaining as pale as paper, and his hands also began to tremble uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Chen Tian couldn't help but sigh. In this state, how could he still have the ability to fight? And even if he could barely go on, he would definitely be beaten down by Zhan Tianlong in minutes.

The young man surnamed Gu seemed unable to bear it any longer. Regardless of Zhang He's obstruction, he took the initiative to say to Chen Tian: "Senior Brother Chen, the truth is, ever since Zhan Tianlong's master became the chief commander in resisting the invasion of outside sects, he has been suppressing our Three Souls Sect. Senior Brother Zhang He was required to fight eighteen times in one month, and each time he was asked to be the vanguard.

Finally, in a fierce battle, Senior Brother Zhang He was injured, but even so, Zhan Tianlong's master would not let Senior Brother Zhang He withdraw. Instead, he asked Senior Brother Zhang He to continue to hold on at the front, so that the people from their Yougui Sect could retreat first.

But this is not the most excessive thing. The most excessive thing is that not long after Senior Brother Zhang He was injured, Zhan Tianlong proposed to hold a competition between the two sects. Senior Brother Zhang He had no choice but to take the stage with his injuries. But that Zhan Tianlong was obviously planning it. During the competition, he deliberately attacked Senior Brother Zhang He's injured weakness, and even after gaining the upper hand, he did not stop. Instead, he attacked Senior Brother Zhang He more fiercely, which ultimately made Senior Brother Zhang He's injuries worse and worse, and he has not recovered until now."

It can be seen that the members of the Three Souls Sect have always been brooding over this matter. When the young man surnamed Gu spoke, each of their faces revealed an expression of righteous indignation, and their eyes also flashed with endless anger.

After hearing this, Chen Tian finally understood the cause and effect. He glanced at Zhan Tianlong on the opposite side. He didn't expect that guy to be so insidious.

After retracting his gaze, Chen Tian looked at Zhang He again and asked: "Senior Brother Zhang, what are you going to do next?"

"Hey, what else can I do? The rules of the competition are two Qi Awakening Stage matches and one Spirit Guiding Stage match, and there is no second Spirit Guiding Stage cultivator in the entire Three Souls Sect besides me, so if I don't go, who else can go?" Zhang He smiled wryly and struggled to stand up.

However, at this moment, Chen Tian stretched out a hand and pressed him down, preventing him from getting up.

Seeing this, Zhang He's eyes widened, and he looked at Chen Tian in confusion and asked: "Junior Brother Chen, what do you mean by this?"

Hearing this, Chen Tian smiled and said lightly: "Senior Brother Zhang, I think it's better for you not to go on stage."

"Junior Brother Chen, what do you mean by this?" Hearing Chen Tian's words, Zhang He, who had always been gentle and refined, suddenly became angry. He said sharply: "Although our Three Souls Sect has lost for several years in a row, it doesn't mean that we are cowards. Even if I only have one breath left, I will go on stage. I, Zhang He, have no face to do such a thing as surrendering without a fight!"

As he spoke, Zhang He struggled even more fiercely.

After hearing this, Chen Tian knew that he had misunderstood his meaning, and hurriedly smiled and said: "Senior Brother Zhang, don't get excited, I don't want you to surrender."

"Huh?" Hearing Chen Tian's words, Zhang He was puzzled. He said incomprehensibly: "If you don't let me go on stage, don't you want us to surrender? Otherwise, besides me, who else can take my place?"

Chen Tian smiled slightly after hearing this and said calmly: "If Senior Brother Zhang is willing, I can take your place."

"What? You want to go on stage?"

As soon as Chen Tian said this, not only Zhang He, but also the rest of the Three Souls Sect were shocked.

After a long while, Zhang He came back to his senses. He hurriedly shook his head and said: "No, Junior Brother Chen, it's too dangerous. That Zhan Tianlong is a Spirit Guiding Stage cultivator, and although you have already cultivated to the ninth level of the Qi Awakening Stage, as long as you haven't broken through to the Spirit Guiding Stage, then you will never be Zhan Tianlong's opponent. After all, the difference in strength between the Spirit Guiding Stage and the Qi Awakening Stage is worlds apart!"

Chen Tian smiled wryly after hearing this. He knew better than anyone how big the gap between the Spirit Guiding Stage and the Qi Awakening Stage was.

If it weren't for Han Wuming, Chen Tian would have died in Lin Chen's hands long ago.

However, the reason why Chen Tian now wants to challenge Zhan Tianlong, a Spirit Guiding Stage disciple, is also for his own consideration, so after chuckling, he said: "Senior Brother Zhang, you should know that you are the person Zhan Tianlong is most afraid of, so if you go out to fight, then Zhan Tianlong will definitely retaliate against you again, and then the injuries on your body will be even worse.

And once you fall, then the entire Three Souls Sect will really never have a chance to rise again from now on, so even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about the future of the Three Souls Sect, right? You don't have to worry about me. Although I am only at the Qi Awakening Stage, I have been blessed by my master and obtained some life-saving magic weapons. It is not an easy task for Zhan Tianlong to kill me."

After hearing Chen Tian's words, Zhang He fell into deep thought.

That's right, Zhang He's physical condition is not optimistic now. If he goes on stage like this, it really doesn't make any sense. It's better to rest for a year and come back next year.

Thinking like this, Zhang He finally nodded and said gratefully: "Since Junior Brother Chen has said so, then I will not decline any longer. Don't worry, this time I owe you a favor. In the future, if Junior Brother needs my help, whether it's going up a mountain of knives or down into a sea of fire, I will definitely do whatever it takes!"

Zhang He is sincere, and these words are all from the bottom of his heart.

Chen Tian nodded after hearing this and said: "Okay, then it's settled. Senior Brother Zhang, you can rest here in peace."

After smiling slightly, Chen Tian got up and walked towards the center of the arena.

Zhan Tianlong had been waiting there for a long time, but when he saw that the person who came out of the Three Souls Sect was not Zhang He, but Chen Tian, he was stunned at first, and then laughed loudly, saying in an extremely arrogant tone: "Hey, kid, what are you doing here? Are you here to die?"
