Chapter 292 Breaking the Stalemate Alone
Chapter 292 Breaking the Stalemate Alone
Three days later.
Everyone had already left the Heaven-Mending Palace.
In just a few days, almost all the geniuses achieved a qualitative improvement, and everyone gained a lot.
"The Holy Son of Ziwei is different from before. He makes me feel like he has become a star."
"The evil monk has actually attained the complete inheritance of the Dragon-Subduing Venerable. He's about to rise to power!"
The group looked at each other, all filled with admiration.
"Huh, Monk Shanque's aura hasn't changed much?"
Suddenly, someone turned their gaze to Li Lan, and was immediately taken aback.
"Indeed, his improvement was not significant."
"His cultivation level is too low; he hasn't yet come into contact with deeper levels of magic, so the supplementation is ineffective."
"What a waste of a great opportunity."
Many people spoke up.
Li Lan's ability to break the seal of the Heaven-Mending Dao Palace and his selection as a protector by the Holy Maiden Cihang demonstrates his exceptional talent. However, his performance within the Heaven-Mending Dao Palace was disappointing.
“You are extremely talented, and your progress in Buddhist practice will be rapid. There is no need to be concerned about temporary setbacks.”
Hearing the crowd's discussion, Miao Wuyu spoke calmly to comfort Li Lan.
Li Lan smiled and said, "Shan Que understands."
He didn't care about this opportunity at all.
Although the Heaven-Mending Palace could indeed benefit his Six Paths Reincarnation Fist, it wasn't actually that significant for Li Lan.
The Six Paths Reincarnation Fist is not his primary cultivation method!
These are merely methods he uses for reference and learning; his most important goal is to pursue the path of integrating all methods.
Currently, the main cultivation technique he is practicing, the Mortal Scripture, is of no use to the Heavenly Palace. Clearly, the Mortal Scripture has already reached the limit that the Heavenly Palace can supplement.
"Thank you so much, Master, for saving my life!"
At this moment, a group of people walked towards Li Lan and bowed respectfully.
Ling Xuewei, Liu Guiyuan, and other Earth cultivators.
Their faces were filled with gratitude. If it weren't for Li Lan going through fire and water to resolve the fire calamity at the entrance of the Heaven-Mending Palace, they would all have died.
Now that the Heaven-Mending Palace has been opened, they can finally live on.
“I am not doing this to save you, but only for my own spiritual desires, so there is no need for thanks.”
Li Lan spoke calmly.
Ling Xuewei and the others had complex expressions, their hearts filled with bitterness. They had been stranded in a foreign land, become victims, and now even their gratitude was completely ignored...
They were completely ignored!
"That's good."
The Holy Maiden of Cihang, Miao Wuyu, nodded, becoming increasingly satisfied with Li Lan.
In her view, Cixing's actions are simply a matter of following one's heart, and she has no attachment to any living beings or anything in the world. What does gratitude matter? What does enmity matter? If one cares about the opinions of others, it is absolutely impossible to achieve great success in the Buddhist path. Li Lan's current state of mind has already surpassed that of many old monks who have practiced asceticism for many years!
"Your expositions are now complete. Today, we will begin the battle for the Zhuanxu Emperor's Pearl!"
At that moment, Xin Yunhe, the Holy Son of Ziwei, spoke loudly, and everyone looked over.
"rise!"
With a shout from Xin Yunhe, a huge spire burst forth from the ground in a martial arts arena a hundred miles away, rising up and standing before everyone.
At the top of that spire was a jade plate, and on the jade plate, a precious pearl emitted a dazzling light.
"The Pearl of Emperor Zhuanxu!"
Immediately, many people were excited.
"There are no rules in today's battle. Anyone can participate. Whoever obtains the Emperor Zhuanxu Pearl in three hours will be the winner!"
Xin Yunhe said loudly.
"Is this... about to turn into a free-for-all?"
"Yes, a chaotic battle. The more chaotic the battle, the more likely you are to see the true strongmen!"
"In that case, to truly obtain the pearl, at least one person would need the strength to withstand the attacks of many powerful beings over several days, which is extremely difficult!"
Everyone looked solemn.
"Now we can begin—"
Xin Yunhe smiled slightly, and then spoke!
The crowd immediately stirred.
"How could I not take such a treasure? This humble monk will gladly accept it!"
The evil monk was the first to move; he transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the spire.
Although the spire was a hundred miles away, it was still a short distance for these talented cultivators. Upon seeing this, the others followed suit.
"We can't let him take the pearl!"
"Make your move!"
In an instant, everyone moved.
"You guys wait for me here."
The Holy Maiden Cihang spoke calmly, then took a step forward and headed towards the spire.
For the first few dozen miles, there was no disturbance, but as they got closer to the spire, they couldn't hold back any longer, and someone made a move.
"Take this sword!"
Ye Yihong, the genius of the Sword Forging Sect, directly slashed at the leading monk Eying with his sword intent, which was quite astonishing. Eying turned around and raised his hand to form a Buddhist seal. A dragon roar rang out, blocking Ye Yihong's sword.
With the evil monk blocked in this way, the other geniuses quickly caught up, and a great battle broke out.
In an instant, all the geniuses in Ziwei City made their moves.
"The most important battle of the Ziwei Festival has finally begun."
"It's a free-for-all!"
"Is that the evil monk Eying? He's really too strong. The legacy of the Primordial Emperor Star Dragon-Subduing Venerable is astonishing!"
People from all major forces had already gathered in the city, and they were all watching closely.
"Let's go, let's follow them and see."
Li Lan and Zhuang Shenmo spoke up, explaining that they were merely "attendants" of the Holy Maiden Cihang, and therefore did not intend to directly participate in this battle.
"Brother, tell me the truth, when are you going to make a move against Miao Wuyu? I've already prepared men in Chengli to support you, and I'm ready to help you anytime!"
Zhuang Shenmo whispered.
Li Lan's heart skipped a beat, and she said, "You dare to be enemies with the Ziwei Holy Land? They have gods among them..."
Li Lan had some concerns. Ziwei City was the heartland of the Ziwei Holy Land, and if Li Lan tried to seize it, there would likely be a lot of resistance.
Moreover, Li Lan has no fear if it is only the Ziwei Holy Land, but it could be very troublesome if a deity descends.
"Don't worry, with us here, we can prevent those gods from descending for the time being!"
Zhuang Shenmo made a guarantee, brimming with confidence.
……
Inside the training grounds surrounding the spire, the battle had reached its climax.
"The Sword Forging Sect has actually produced such a genius swordsman; they are truly destined to be invincible in the world!"
"What do you mean by invincible? Didn't you see? Xu Caiwei of the Mingguang Sect's sword intent is almost on par with his!"
"Yao Yi, this Earth's supreme genius is quite formidable!"
All the cultivators in the city were watching this battle.
After all, it's not easy for geniuses from various factions to even get together on a regular basis, let alone in a major battle.
People can even glimpse the strength and weakness of the future from this great war. Who can not care?
"E'ying has obtained the Zhuanxu Emperor's Pearl!"
Suddenly, someone shouted.
The evil monk finally forced away the surrounding enemies, leaped over the high tower, and obtained the Emperor Zhuanxu Pearl.
"lay down!"
"Eying, this is not something you should take!"
"He's asking for death, kill him!"
The other geniuses all shouted and attacked E Ying at the same time.
This is the cruelty of this great war: whoever takes the Emperor Zhuanxu's Pearl will become a public enemy and be targeted by all forces.
"Hehe, esteemed benefactors, there's no need to see me off. E Ying is leaving—"
But the evil monk smiled, and a bead on his body flashed by, and his figure disappeared from the spot!
Teleportation spell!
He had no intention of fighting the crowd; instead, he wanted to flee the city and escape this place.
"He's trying to run away!"
"Stop him!"
"How could this be!"
Everyone else's expression changed, and they hurriedly followed. However, many of them hadn't prepared any teleportation talismans, so they could only watch helplessly.
"The Holy Maiden Cihang has made her move!"
At that very moment, Miao Wuyu's figure also moved and disappeared on the spot. Then, the next moment, she had already arrived at the edge of Ziwei City. With a slender hand, a lotus flower fell down on the spot. The evil monk Eying used the Dragon Subduing True Technique to block it, but he was also blocked for a while. The two had already started fighting outside Ziwei City.
"Quick, keep up!"
"Go away!"
The others arrived quickly as well.
The evil monk fought and retreated, constantly trying to escape.
"Why didn't the Purple Star Holy Land intervene? They actually allowed the evil monk Ying to escape from the city with the precious pearl!"
"Yup!"
"The Ziwei Holy Land did not say that the battlefield could only be within the city during this great battle."
Many people asked with doubt.
At this moment, Xin Yunhe, the Holy Son of Ziwei, simply smiled faintly.
The evil monks snatched the Imperial Pearl and took it outside the city; this was also a plan they had discussed long ago.
The reason for this is... Li Lan did not appear inside the Heaven-Mending Palace.
This means that Li Lan is very cautious and does not dare to venture rashly into the heart of the Ziwei Holy Land.
Therefore, after thinking it over, Xin Yunhe decided to create an opportunity for Li Lan to seize it.
Only with Li Lan's arrival did this meticulously planned assassination scheme have any meaning!
What's the use of even the most carefully prepared urn if the turtles don't enter?
He also believed that Li Lan must have come. As a person of the Primordial Emperor Star and the Lord of Reincarnation, it was impossible for him not to be tempted by so many temptations!
It's like fishing; when facing a wary carp, you have to cast a long line and have enough patience.
Therefore, the evil monk has now taken the Imperial Pearl outside the city. Li Lan, this "carp" secretly waiting, should be in a relatively safe area now. He definitely won't be able to wait any longer, he definitely will...
He was not afraid of being robbed by Li Lan outside the city, because several of the Supreme Elders of Cihang Holy Land had already emerged from seclusion, and could summon the gods at any time!
……
Outside the city!
The evil monk and the holy maiden Cihang exchanged blows, but after only a few rounds, he was already feeling extremely strained.
"This little vixen has actually become this strong?"
E Ying was somewhat surprised and asked, "What exactly did you comprehend in the Heaven-Mending Palace?"
But what responded to him was only a series of snow lotus flowers, as bright as rosy clouds and as light as feathers, but when they fell, they had the force of a thousand pounds, which E Ying could not withstand at all!
Only now did E Ying realize just how powerful the Holy Maiden Cihang truly was.
He was able to gain the upper hand that day because the Holy Maiden Cihang was seriously injured.
Other geniuses have also arrived.
"I'll take it!"
Seeing that things were not going well, E Ying suddenly threw the precious pearl in his hand to the Holy Maiden Cihang.
"Hit her!"
He shouted!
As expected, the other geniuses who arrived all rushed to attack the Holy Maiden Cihang.
The Holy Maiden Cihang stood tall in the air, with snow-white lotuses blooming continuously. She seemed to be standing in a sea of flowers, and all the fierce attacks were neutralized by her.
He single-handedly confronted all the geniuses!
