Seeking Immortality
Chapter 40. As wished.
On the second day of the competition between Xu Qingfan and Feng Qingtian, it was already afternoon. The sun shines into Xu Qingfan's room through the doors and windows, and there are spots of light. Outside the house, birds chirping and cicadas chirp constantly, and the whole world seems to have a sense of spring.
In the room, Xu Qingfan was sitting cross-legged on the bed, meditating quietly, with green and gray light shining on him. The changing light of the two colors also illuminated the entire room, which was also cloudy and sunny.
"Huh~~~" Xu Qingfan let out a long breath and finally woke up from his trance. He slowly opened his eyes, with complex emotions of satisfaction and helplessness flashing in his eyes.
Yesterday's competition with Feng Qingtian not only depleted the spiritual energy in his body, but the seriousness of his internal injuries was far beyond his imagination. It may even affect his performance in the next game. In desperation, Xu Qingfan could only take three "Wood Spirit Pills" to restore the spiritual energy in his body.
The "Wood Spirit Pill" was refined by Lu Huayan ten years ago using the flesh and blood of the "Green Dragon Python" and the spiritual roots of more than ten kinds of thousand-year-old elixirs. Even in the world of immortality, these two materials are available but not available. Very effective. One can also imagine how valuable the "Wood Spirit Pill" is. Therefore, after Xu Qingfan took the "Wood Spirit Pill", not only did he regain all his power in just one night and half a day, but the spiritual energy in his body also increased greatly. Now he is only a hair away from the state of spiritual silence. But in terms of skill, Xu Qingfan is no longer inferior to Feng Qingtian and Jin Qinghan.
But after all, the Mu Ling Dan was only used to refine the Mu Yi Qi accumulated in Xu Qingfan's body, and its therapeutic effect was not obvious. Therefore, there are advantages and disadvantages after taking it. After taking the "Mu Ling Dan", the spiritual energy in the body is stirred up. Although the skill is greatly increased, the internal injuries suffered are not only not alleviated, but become more serious due to the stirred up spiritual energy. More importantly, during this internal competition, Xu Qingfan took "Wood Spirit Pill" one after another in a short period of time, relying on the power of the elixir to forcibly restore his spiritual energy and improve his realm. This also caused the problem of instability in his realm, which will affect his future. Development is very unfavorable. And the possibility of entering the elixir formation stage is getting slimmer.
Severe internal injuries and unstable state. Although Xu Qingfan's current strength has reached an unprecedented high, it is like a tall building on the beach. Although it is magnificent, it cannot withstand any wind and rain. Even in the next competition, Xu Qingfan still needs to use a large part of his spiritual energy to protect his injured heart and five internal organs. Otherwise, not only will his body collapse, but he may also fall into a crisis of obsession.
"Am I destined to achieve the highest level of achievement in my life? I can only reach the late stage of Lingji?" Feeling the condition of his body, he found that the thousand-year wood Yi energy obtained from the mountain spirit wood monster in his body had been refined to 34%. Xu Qingfan murmured to himself with a wry smile. "If the realm is unstable, then the realm is unstable. No matter what, if the strength increases, the hope of regaining the master's relics will be greater."
At this time, Xu Qingfan could only comfort himself in this way.
Xu Qingfan couldn't tell whether he regretted or not regretted yesterday's desperate fight just to help Jin Qinghan learn more about Feng Qingtian's strength. Xu Qingfan only knew that if Jin Qinghan lost to Feng Qingtian again this time, he would be hit hard. As a friend, I should do my best to help him. But is it worth it to delay retrieving Master's relics just because of this? Xu Qingfan couldn't explain clearly. It was as if Xu Qingfan didn't know if he would do it again if he was given another chance.
Maybe, Xu Qingfan will know the answer in his heart only when he really has another chance, right?
In fact, people don't really understand themselves at ordinary times. It is not uncommon for people who think they are strong-willed to resist temptation at the last moment, just as many people who are considered weak will burst out with unprecedented courage at the last moment. People always don't know what they really think until the last moment.
Xu Qingfan took a deep breath to calm down the ups and downs in his heart. Now that you've done it, there's no time to regret it. Now Xu Qingfan is thinking about the final between the third and fourth place that he will participate in in the afternoon. As long as he wins the afternoon, Xu Qingfan can legitimately take back his master's relics.
According to the schedule, the final between Jin Qinghan and Feng Qingtian will be held tomorrow. This morning, there was a competition between Bai Qingfu, Wang Qingjun, Sheng Yushan, and Lou Qingsong to determine the fifth place. In the afternoon, there was a competition between Xu Qingfan and Lu Qingshang to determine the third or fourth place.
Although Xu Qingfan did not see the competition between Jin Qinghan and Lu Qingshang yesterday, he believed that the winner must be Jin Qinghan. He had confidence in Jin Qinghan because he had personally witnessed Jin Qinghan's efforts over the years.
Seeing the blazing sun outside the room, Xu Qingfan knew that it was almost afternoon, and his competition today was about to begin. So he stood up from the bed, slowly opened the door and walked out.
Outside the door, the sun shines. Jin Qinghan was standing quietly in the sun, waiting for Xu Qingfan to appear.
"Are you waiting for me here?" Xu Qingfan asked with a smile.
Jin Qinghan nodded and asked, "How are your injuries?"
"Much better, don't worry." Xu Qingfan comforted. "Did you win yesterday?"
Jin Qinghan nodded, and seeing Xu Qingfan's still pale face and weak steps, Jin Qinghan shook his head again and said: "Don't you meditate more and cultivate yourself? If the internal injuries are not treated quickly, there will be sequelae. "
"It's not a big deal, it's much better now." Xu Qingfan said lightly: "And I'm going to compete with Lu Qingshang soon. This competition is very important. Whether the master's relics can be taken back depends on this competition. It can't be lost, it's better to go early."
"You don't have to go so early, maybe Lu Qingshang will go later than you." When Jin Qinghan said this, Xu Qingfan was surprised to find that he rarely showed a smile on his face.
Xu Qingfan didn't care about what Jin Qinghan's smile meant, but took the lead to walk forward to the mountain, because the competition was about to start.
On the way, the spring breeze was blowing and the green shade was in patches.
"By the way, who won the competition this morning?" Xu Qingfan asked.
"Wang Qingjun." Jin Qinghan said.
"Is it him?" Xu Qingfan said in surprise: "What about Senior Brother Bai?"
"That Wang Qingjun is indeed very strong. He defeated Sheng Yushan easily. Even if Sheng Yushan used all his magical powers, he still had no resistance. Although Senior Brother Bai defeated Lou Qingsong, he still lost to him." At this point, Jin Qinghan couldn't help but frowned and continued: "Although the competition between Senior Brother Bai and Wang Qingjun was very exciting, I still think he is still hiding his strength."
Hearing Jin Qinghan's words, Xu Qingfan couldn't help but think of Bai Qingfu's eyes that could never see true emotions, and sighed: "This Senior Brother Bai is indeed very unpredictable."
Under the leadership of Xu Qingfan, the two walked very fast. While talking, they had already arrived at the square in front of Linghua Hall in the front mountain.
Compared with the scene of the previous semi-finals, there were obviously fewer people watching in the square this time.
Maybe people are used to paying attention to the winners, so they are less interested in the competition between the losers today. Xu Qingfan thought secretly.
But what made Xu Qingfan feel strange was that the eyes of the people in the square were always filled with awe when they looked in his direction. To be precise, they looked at Jin Qinghan with awe.
Although Xu Qingfan was curious, as the bells kept ringing, he had to walk to the field first, ready to ask Jin Qinghan after the competition.
As Xu Qingfan walked to the field step by step, he felt a little nervous. This was his last competition in the internal competition, and it was also the most important one. As long as he won this competition, Xu Qingfan could successfully take back Lu Huayan's relics. But if he lost, all his previous efforts would be in vain.
Lu Qingshang was considered the third favorite in this internal competition. This was not self-proclaimed. He had long been famous in Jiuhuamen for his intelligence and wisdom and his ability to make talismans and array formations. With the help of talismans and array formations, he could easily defeat opponents who were much stronger than him. Although the previous competition with Bai Qingfu was a bit tricky, it also fully showed how difficult he was. To be honest, Xu Qingfan felt that he was not sure of winning against such an opponent.
"Since it has come to this point, I have to give it a try no matter what." Xu Qingfan thought secretly.
But strangely, as Xu Qingfan stood on the field and waited for a long time, he still did not wait for Lu Qingshang's figure. And as Lu Qingshang was late, the audience gradually became slightly restless.
"What's going on? Why hasn't Lu Qingshang come yet? Isn't he afraid of being disqualified from the competition?" Xu Qingfan was also secretly wondering in his heart.
After another three incense sticks, just when the audience began to feel impatient, a ray of light suddenly flashed in the sky and flew towards the square at a very fast speed. After the ray of light flew over the square, it stopped. After the scattered light dissipated, a skinny old man was seen quietly lingering in the air and suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
With the sudden arrival of the old man, everyone on the high platform, from the head Zhang Hualing to the ordinary elders, stood up and bowed to the old man. It was obvious that the old man had a very high status in Jiuhua Sect.
After the old man bowed to the elders on the high platform, he began to search among the low-level disciples on the square. After seeing Xu Qingfan, his eyes paused slightly, and then began to search again. Finally, the old man's eyes stopped on Jin Qinghan.
After seeing Jin Qinghan, the old man's eyes began to become sharp, and the strong and sharp momentum on his body rushed towards Jin Qinghan. Although Jin Qinghan was talented and born proud, after all, due to the limited time of cultivation, he was only in the late stage of fasting. Although it was only a hair's breadth away from the spiritual silence period, the realm was after all very different from the old man. For a while, he couldn't stand the pressure from the old man and took three steps back before stopping.
Seeing Jin Qinghan's look, the old man couldn't help but be a little surprised. He originally wanted to use his own pressure to make Jin Qinghan kneel on the ground, but he didn't expect that Jin Qinghan only took three steps back to resist his momentum.
"Hmph~!" A cold snort sounded. Although the voice was low, it seemed to resound through the sky and constantly echoed in Jiuhua Mountain.
It turned out that just when the old man was about to do something, Jin Qinghan's master on the high platform, an old man with a faint golden face, suddenly snorted coldly as a warning.
This skinny old man obviously had concerns about Jin Qinghan's master, so he just glared at Jin Qinghan fiercely, and then said to everyone: "My disciple Lu Qingshang was too seriously injured in yesterday's competition, so he can't participate in the competition today and declares to give up."
Speaking of this, the skinny old man couldn't help but glared at Jin Qinghan fiercely, and then he turned into a fairy mist again, flew away, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"I won just like that?" Xu Qingfan thought blankly after hearing the old man's words.
After an elder on the high platform announced that he had won the competition, Xu Qingfan finally believed this fact
For a moment, a sense of relief came naturally. This relief was not only because he finally won the third place and took back Lu Huayan's relics, but also because Xu Qingfan felt that he finally didn't have to participate in the competition and worry about fighting. In terms of Xu Qingfan's nature, he likes comfort and hates fighting. These days, he has been consuming his brain every day for the competition, which is indeed difficult for him.
Hearing the words and demeanor of the skinny old man, and thinking of the inexplicable words Jin Qinghan said today and the awe-inspiring eyes of the crowd looking at Jin Qinghan, Xu Qingfan vaguely guessed something, so after leaving the stage, he asked Jin Qinghan directly: "Did you arrange all this?"
Jin Qinghan nodded and said lightly: "You were seriously injured in order to help me find out Feng Qingtian's strength, so I think I should do something for you."
It turned out that when Xu Qingfan returned to the back mountain to heal his injuries yesterday, Jin Qinghan felt that Feng Qingtian was seriously injured because of helping him, and it would even delay the third and fourth place finals, which was the most important for Xu Qingfan, so Jin Qinghan also made up his mind to do something to help Xu Qingfan. So in the next match between him and Lu Qingshang, Jin Qinghan no longer concealed his strength and used the powerful Taoist technique he originally used as a secret weapon - "Golden Armor Technique".
In front of the extremely powerful "Golden Armor Technique", Lu Qingshang's spell array was useless, but his defense could not stop Jin Qinghan's powerful gold attack methods. A miserable defeat became a matter of course. But for Jin Qinghan, victory alone was far from enough. So at the last moment of the competition, Jin Qinghan used the "Golden Nail Chisel" to hit Lu Qingshang's eight meridians in succession. Although it did not hurt his roots, it made him unable to fight in a short time. So there was a scene like today. Xu Qingfan won without fighting under Lu Qingshang's abstention and won the third place in this internal competition, thus legitimately taking back Lu Huayan's relic "Three Zhang Qingling".
Hearing Jin Qinghan's narration, Xu Qingfan didn't know what to think for a while. Did he feel that the victory was unfair, or did he feel guilty towards Lu Qingshang? Perhaps, it was more of a strong brotherly love?
Friends, shouldn't they think about each other and find ways to help each other without expecting anything in return?
