The Tale of Breaking Free to Cultivate Immortality

The word "brother Teng" almost made Wang Teng want to bite his tongue and commit suicide.

He was just trying to show off, and even wanted to compete with Zhou Ming for prestige.

He almost forgot that he had a bet with this guy named Li Qiye.

Whoever loses must call the winner "big brother" in the future, and no matter who becomes stronger in the future, or even if their cultivation level is lower, they cannot violate this agreement.

"Master Li... Big Brother Li." Wang Teng almost gritted his teeth before calling out these three words.

"Hey, Brother Teng, it's too strange to call him by his full name." Li Ruoyu shook his head and said, "From now on, just call him Brother Li."

"By the way, I'm new to Hezhou, and I don't know this Senior Brother Zhou." Li Ruoyu seemed to have not seen Wang Teng's livid face at all, and then looked in the direction of Zhou Ming, "Since you know Brother Teng well, why don't you introduce him to me?"

"Brother... Brother!" Wang Teng said these two words one by one, "Why don't you call me Second Brother Wang Teng? I'm not used to hearing Brother Teng."

"So you don't like this title." Li Ruoyu "suddenly woke up", "In that case, I'll call you Fourth Brother. I have two other sworn brothers, but your Second Brother and Third Brother are not here. I'll introduce them to you when I have the chance in the future."

Li Ruoyu's words almost made Wang Teng go berserk. If he hadn't seen Zhou Ming coming towards them, he would have gone berserk.

How come I just wanted to call someone by a title, but ended up with two more "brothers"? And his second and third brothers.

Your two brothers, wouldn't they be fooled like me, Wang, were they?

He wanted to get angry, but Zhou Ming came over, and... he also remembered the order given to him by the ancestor.

"Junior brother Wang, and this one..." Zhou Ming took the initiative to come over and greet him, and Wang Teng's mood instantly improved a lot, but when he thought of Li Qiye standing next to him, he felt unhappy.

"Senior brother Zhou, this is my sworn brother Li Qiye." Wang Teng had to act as a middleman, "Brother, this is Brother Zhou Ming, the eldest disciple of Haoran Sword Saint, who is preparing to recruit disciples for the entire Dahezhou, and is famous in the three states."

"It turns out to be Senior Brother Zhou, nice to meet you." Li Ruoyu clasped his fists and saluted. He was a great master in the Refining Void Realm. Even if this person did not deliberately display his cultivation, he still gave him a strong sense of oppression.

"Junior Brother Li, Junior Brother Wang, are you willing to go with me?" Seeing that Wang Teng was really willing to accept defeat, Zhou Ming finally looked up to him, but the following invitation made countless people on the sidelines jealous.

Being invited by the eldest disciple of Haoran Sword Saint, the significance of that can be imagined.

Perhaps, Senior Brother Zhou Ming saw the extraordinary talents of these two people when he was watching the game on the sidelines.

Didn't you see that even the genius Xu Ran was not invited by Zhou Ming?

But speaking of it, Xu Ran's spear skills are indeed basically not related to the master and disciple of Haoran Sword Saint.

"Senior Brother Zhou, I just... traveled to the territory of Dahezhou." Li Ruoyu frowned, "I have no intention of becoming a disciple."

When Li Ruoyu said this, Wang Teng was stunned for a moment. He thought this guy just liked to play the pig and eat the tiger, but he didn't expect that he was really a pig.

That was a sword saint. In terms of strength, even the ancestor of the Wang family admitted that he was slightly inferior to him.

Even Wang Teng, as the son of the Wang family, came eagerly, wanting to become a disciple of the Haoran Sword Saint.

You rejected him before you even arrived at the Haoran Sword Sect? You are really stupid!

There are many geniuses in the Wang family. Although Wang Teng is indeed outstanding, he is not the only one favored in the family.

But if he can become a disciple of the Sword Saint and become his closed disciple.

That would be really a collection of thousands of favors, and the resources allocated to him would be much more than the benefits he would get as a son of the Wang family.

That's good. I was worried that this person would compete with me for the quota of apprenticeship, but now I don't have to worry about it.

Sure enough, Li Ruoyu's refusal not only made Wang Teng feel that he was "stupid", but also stunned the surrounding cultivators, and even Zhou Ming was stunned for a few breaths.

In the three states near Dahezhou, the master can be regarded as a supreme existence.

Moreover, among so many saints in the fusion realm, the master is the youngest one, and many young people want to become his disciples but cannot.

But then, Zhou Ming came to his senses. Maybe it was just that the young man was full of arrogance and spoke without thinking.

"That's okay." Zhou Ming smiled and shook his head, "Brother, I have invited many geniuses. I think Junior Brother Li wants to see the top figures in our three states when he travels here?"

"Oh?" Li Ruoyu's frowning brows instantly opened, "Then please lead the way, Senior Brother Zhou, I am really interested."

Among the three nearby states, Dahezhou is not the weakest, but it is not the strongest among Dahezhou, Dazhizhou, and Damingzhou.

Maybe, in this grand event, he can meet the so-called "Zunwang" level genius.

Zhou Ming nodded secretly. This boy is very powerful, probably much stronger than himself back then. He is very optimistic about his calm temperament at the critical moment.

In front of a great master in the late stage of the Void Refining Realm, he could be so calm and composed. He must be either extremely cunning or he was used to cultivators of his level.

Compared to the fact that he was extremely cunning, he was more inclined to believe that this person had seen many powerful people and could even cultivate such a genius. He was afraid that he would not be much worse than his master.

The higher his cultivation level, the more Zhou Ming understood the fear of high-level masters, and the more he understood their rarity.

He respected his teacher and respected the way of the teacher, so he would not blindly believe that his master was invincible in the world.

In the Xuankong Mountain, there was an existence that his master could never reach in his lifetime.

As for the masters of the same level as his master, there were no less than two palms.

When practicing, cultivators should avoid looking at the sky from the bottom of a well!

So after some thought, Li Qiye's attitude not only did not make Zhou Ming angry, but he admired it instead.

As for Li Ruoyu, it was really the first time he saw a living master of the Refining Void Realm, especially a great master in the late Refining Void Realm!

To put it bluntly, if Zhou Ming slapped him casually, Li Ruoyu would most likely be beaten into slag.

In the past, he would definitely have to lower his posture and show some goodwill.

But now, what Senior Bifang meant was that he was just a little guy in the late Refining Void Realm, a guy who could be killed by a sneeze, so he could make friends with him without worry.

With Senior Bifang backing him up, Li Ruoyu felt relieved and bold.

At least the persona he created for himself as "the genius swordsman Li Qiye" would not fall apart in Dahezhou.

In the past, Senior Bifang would not even bother to look at the Haoran Sword Saint.

Now, although there is no need to deliberately provoke him, there is no need to be afraid at all.

Seeing that the Sword Saint accepted a disciple and took Li Qiye and Wang Teng away directly, the cultivators who came here with high spirits could only leave dejectedly.

Of course, many people became more motivated.

Talent, cultivation, and combat power are too important for cultivators of our generation.

Those two were taken away by Venerable Zhou Ming because of their strong combat power and extraordinary talent.

Of course, there are also some people who are not aiming for the position of the Sword Saint's last disciple.

The Haoran Sword Sect is the top force in Dahezhou. Even if you don't worship under the Sword Saint, it is also a great opportunity to worship under other Venerables in the Refining Void Realm.

The competition in Xishan ended, and everyone went back.

On an exquisite flying boat, Zhou Ming personally brewed a pot of top-grade spiritual tea, and then started chatting with two young juniors.

However, it was mostly Zhou Ming and Wang Teng who were talking. As an outsider, Li Ruoyu was really smart to talk less and listen more.
