Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

"Hmph, I can't worry about so much. Seeing that Chen Tian, I always have some concerns in my heart, so it's better to be safe," Mu Qingyun said with a stern expression, and continued: "Besides, if we lose today, you should all be clear about how Master will punish us, right?"

"Master?"

Hearing Mu Qingyun's words, both Junior Brother Lü and Junior Brother Yao couldn't help but tremble.

It was well-known that Yougui Qiandu liked to save face. He was already very dissatisfied with losing to Zhang He several times in the past few years. If he still couldn't win this year, then it was foreseeable that they would definitely not have a good time in the future.

Mu Qingyun glanced at them coldly and asked sternly: "Alright, let's talk about it. Are you going to do it or not?"

Faced with Mu Qingyun's questioning, the two of them immediately lost their temper, sighed with a wry smile, and agreed.

Mu Qingyun nodded in satisfaction when he saw this, and then said again: "Okay, time is running out. Junior Brother Lü and I will block in front. Junior Brother Yao, start as soon as possible!"

After saying that, Mu Qingyun and Junior Brother Lü stood shoulder to shoulder, blocking Junior Brother Yao behind them.

Junior Brother Yao also knew that time was running out. Without hesitation, he immediately closed his eyes and began to chant.

After a while, wisps of black smoke escaped from the top of his head.

These black smokes were extremely strange, as if they were alive. As soon as they appeared, they automatically gathered together, and then continued to deform. Finally, they actually condensed into a black rat.

The rat's fur was black and smooth, and its tail was slender, constantly shaking behind it.

Even more strange was that the rat's size was really a bit huge, even a circle larger than a normal pet cat, and its two small eyes were rolling around, and its expression and demeanor were exactly the same as a human being.

After the black rat appeared in the air, it started climbing up from Mu Qingyun's heel, and finally came to his head, with the rat's head vigilantly guarding the surroundings.

Looking back at Junior Brother Yao, his eyes were dull at this time, and his body was motionless as if he had been nailed in place, looking like a sculpture!

It turned out that this man surnamed Yao had cultivated a spell called 'Soul Shift Transformation', which could temporarily extract his own soul from his body and transform it into anything.

At this time, after hearing Mu Qingyun's instructions, he used this 'Soul Shift Transformation Technique' to transform into that rat.

Although his strength would be greatly reduced after performing this technique, he could barely possess the strength of the Spirit Guiding stage. Mu Qingyun's idea was to have the three of them deal with Chen Tian together.

Mu Qingyun remembered that Chen Tian ten years ago was only at the Great Perfection of the Qi Activation stage. Although he knew that he had broken through to the Spirit Guiding stage, he felt that in less than ten years, Chen Tian should still be at the early stage of the Spirit Guiding stage.

Therefore, Mu Qingyun felt that with his own mid-Spirit Guiding stage strength, plus two early-Spirit Guiding stage cultivators, it would be easy to take down Chen Tian!

Thinking like this, Mu Qingyun felt even more cheerful. After laughing, he said softly: "Alright, Junior Brother Lü, Junior Brother Yao, let's go!"

After saying that, Mu Qingyun, with the black rat transformed by the man surnamed Yao on his head, walked towards the center of the canyon with Junior Brother Lü.

As soon as he came to Zhang He's front, Zhang He felt a little puzzled. He asked suspiciously: "Junior Brother Mu, what's going on with the rat on your head? I don't think I've ever seen it before?"

"Oh, it's like this, this rat is a magical pet that I recently raised. It can also be regarded as one of my magical treasures. I brought it to participate in the battle together. It's not against the rules, right?"

While saying this, Mu Qingyun's gaze was directed at Chen Tian, as if asking for his opinion.

Chen Tian looked at the rat on Mu Qingyun's head, his heart moved. He raised his chin and looked at it, as if he was thinking about something.

Mu Qingyun felt a little nervous when he saw this, and hurriedly said again: "Junior Brother Chen, don't misunderstand. It really is my magical pet. I brought it out now just to test its strength and how it is, so I can slowly adjust it in the future."

"I see." Hearing Mu Qingyun's words, Chen Tian smiled faintly, and then nodded and said: "Alright then, I'll allow you to use this magical pet."

Seeing Chen Tian nod, Mu Qingyun and Junior Brother Lü's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and both of them breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Alright, let's start then. Since everyone is from the same sect, this match should be stopped when appropriate, so as not to hurt harmony!"

Mu Qingyun said with a smile again, but in the depths of his eyes, there was a hint of gloom. Obviously, his words were insincere. From the beginning, he never thought of showing mercy.

Mu Qingyun thought that he had hidden it very well, but what he never expected was that Chen Tian had noticed the cold killing intent emanating from him from the very beginning, but he didn't show anything, just smiled faintly: "That's right, everyone is from the same sect, of course it's better to stop when appropriate, but before that, I have a suggestion, I wonder if Senior Brother Mu agrees?"

"Hmm?" Mu Qingyun was a little surprised. He didn't expect Chen Tian to make a request at this time. After pondering for a while, he nodded and said: "Okay, Junior Brother, tell me first, what is the suggestion?"

"This suggestion is very simple." Chen Tian looked at Mu Qingyun with a smile and said: "Considering that Senior Brother Zhang is seriously injured, I think it's inappropriate for him to participate in the competition. Therefore, I want him to withdraw, and I will face Senior Brother Mu and Senior Brother Lü alone, how about that?"

"What, you plan to fight alone?" Hearing Chen Tian's words, Mu Qingyun and Junior Brother Lü were immediately stunned. They looked at each other, and both saw a strong incomprehension in each other's eyes. Even the black rat transformed by the man surnamed Yao, who was staying on Mu Qingyun's head, stopped moving at this time, as if he was equally puzzled.

Zhang He was also shocked. He hurriedly shook his head and said: "Junior Brother Chen, absolutely not, this is originally a matter of our Three Souls Sect. We are already very grateful that Junior Brother is willing to help, so how can we let Junior Brother face the two people from the Yougui Sect alone? That's not right!"

Indeed, Zhang He was already very grateful that Chen Tian was able to stand up to help at the most difficult moment of the Three Souls Sect, so he was so surprised when he heard him say that he wanted to face the two people from the Yougui Sect alone, after all, this matter was unreasonable.

Seeing the concern on Zhang He's face, Chen Tian smiled and said: "Senior Brother Zhang, you don't need to say any more. If it was before, I would have let you stay and fight with me, but now..."

Chen Tian paused, glanced at the black rat on Mu Qingyun's head thoughtfully, showed a strange smile, and continued: "The situation now is too complicated, you are sick, and it is no longer suitable for you to fight again, so listen to me, don't force yourself!"
