Chapter 370 – Challenge (Next)
”What’s so funny? I just have compassion in my heart and don’t want to hurt anyone!” The Immortal Master on the opposite side couldn’t help but get annoyed when he saw Han Li’s unconcerned demeanor, posing more and more as a “high ranking person”.
”It’s nothing! I just feel that this competition seems to be a bit easier than I thought!” Han Li said carelessly as he tapped the ground beneath his feet with his toes.
”What? How dare you belittle me like this!” This middle-aged cultivator’s face turned red all of a sudden, and with a lift of his hand, a bright crystal thing appeared in his hand, but before he could offer up the object in his hand, he suddenly felt a blur of silhouettes in front of him, and then both of his eyes went black, and he fell to the ground limply, unaware of his personnel.
Han Li looked at the middle-aged cultivator who fell to the ground, and came out from inside as usual. The other cultivators in the hall were stunned when they saw this.
The difference in cultivation between Han Li and his opponent was clear to them, but the winner was Han Li, which was really too unexpected.
But not all cultivators are surprised, that has been tense face of the old man, revealed a trace of odd color. He looked at Han Li with deep meaning, and although he didn’t say anything, he seemed to know what had happened to Han Li.
Han Li “hehehe” laughed, and without moving, placed the two bamboo sticks in front of the old man, and placed his fainted opponent on the ground, and returned to the winning cultivator.
The old man looked at the middle-aged cultivator at his feet who was still unaware of his personnel, and lightly shook his head, revealing a hint of a smirk.
”Number eight!”
When the last winner also appeared, the old man looked at the other ten cultivators who hadn’t been on the field, coughed lightly, and said indifferently, “The following challenges will begin in the order of the number, if you are conscious of a serious loss of mana, you can take a break and wait a while to challenge again. But the challenges must all end within today, or else they will be treated as forfeits. And the challengers are not allowed to challenge those who have already fought against others, as for the extra eleven numbers, they will challenge once among the last winning ten.”
”Alright, here goes!”
Seeing that the old man had finished, the cultivator ranked number one couldn’t wait to choose an opponent who seemed to have the lowest cultivation level from those ten cultivators and entered the platform together.
That challenged opponent only had a cultivation of the sixth layer, while he was a cultivator of the seventh layer, so it did seem like he had a good chance of winning!
But after a tea’s work, the first one to come out from the white light was the sixth layer cultivator, as for cultivator number one, he came out a little later with scars all over his body, he had a shameful look on his face, and ran out of the hall directly without saying a word.
Seeing this scene, the rest of the challengers’ faces changed, while that cultivator returned to the ten people with full concern.
”Next!” The elder shouted without a trace of shock, as if that cultivator’s victory was a matter of course!
”Elder, I’m not recovering my mana right now, so wait a bit!” The cultivator at number two said with a slightly reddened face.
”Number three!” The old man didn’t care if this person really hadn’t recovered his mana or was a bit battle-weary, but instead directly called the next number.
The next cultivator frowned lightly for a moment before similarly avoiding battle.
On the other hand, the following cultivator, number four, really couldn’t grind his cheeks and picked an opponent stiffly and entered the platform. As a result, the same scene appeared once again.
Looking at the injured cultivator number four, none of the remaining challengers revealed a look of shock.
In this situation, the two cultivators behind them similarly delayed the timing of their challenge, and in their opinion, it would be wise to let others go up and try first.
”Number seven!” After the old man’s expression moved for a moment, he slowly read Han Li’s number.
Han Li walked out in silence, reaching out and pointing at an opponent at the sixth cultivation level.
That cultivator was a burly man, and seeing that Han Li didn’t back down and even chose him, he immediately gave a hideous smile and took a large step towards the platform. Han Li, on the contrary, walked slowly as if pondering his countermeasures.
As the figures of the burly man and Han Li disappeared in the white light, everyone looked in the direction of the platform with concern. For his part, the Foundation Establishment Stage old man closed his eyes and seemed to nourish his spirit, but a moment later, his face moved slightly, and then a hint of surprise surfaced as he opened his eyes in a bit of surprise.
Then, a silhouette appeared on the platform in white light.
All the cultivators hurriedly gazed, only to see that after the white light dissipated that person was actually Han Li, only to see that he had no injuries on his body at all, but one hand was dragging his scorched opponent upside down, leisurely walking out with a look of unparalleled ease.
Seeing this scene, not only were the cultivators who were also challengers stunned, those remaining challenged even revealed a look of disbelief.
As for the Wen Boom behind the old man, his mouth was wide open, unable to close for a moment.
Han Li placed this opponent, who still had a breath left in him, towards the old man’s heels, and then leisurely returned to his original position against a variety of astonished gazes.
When the other challengers saw this, they couldn’t help but move a bit to the surrounding area, revealing a hint of awe.
Seeing this kind of situation, Han Li sneered in his heart, it seems that no matter what place he arrives at, it is still the most useful to use strength to speak ah.
Perhaps Han Li’s unexpected victory, gave the rest of the confidence to win, the results of the back of a few people did not avoid the battle, and directly selected the opponent to fight a lot, but none of these people fell into the end of a serious injury.
See this scene, the first few challengers under the shock, completely extinguished the heart of victory, the last one under the scheme, and even have abandoned the right. After all, knowing that the enemy, but also hard on, they are not a bad head!
In this way, the old man announced on the spot that Han Li was the only one who had obtained the qualifications for the Gu Family to become a Great Island Merchant. The old man then handed Han Li a blue jade slip, saying that it would be enough to hand it over to the Gu family.
The old man then unceremoniously issued an expulsion order, and all the Immortal cultivators were unceremoniously blasted out of the hall.
In the corridor, when Han Li handed over the blue jade slip to the hands of Gu Dongzhu, the expression on his face was really wonderful. First, there was some disbelief, then surprise, and finally a look of ecstasy!
”Immortal Master Han, I won’t say any more about Gu’s words of gratitude. You can rest assured that the conditions promised by the Gu Family will absolutely be fulfilled for Immortal Master.” As he said these words, Han Li, Dongmaster Gu, and Wang Changqing were already on their way back to the Gu Family Manor in a beast cart.
Although he spoke with a face full of gratitude, his hands were wrapped around the jade slip in a death grip, as if he was afraid that it would fly away, and it looked as if his appearance was really somewhat amusing.
”I believe that Mr. Gu, would not do such a thing as crossing the river and tearing down the bridge! Especially for an Immortal Cultivator.” Han Li said with a slight smile as he leaned his back against the wall of the beast cart.
Upon hearing Han Li’s words, which seemed to carry a slight warning, Dongmaster Gu and Wang Changqing blanched before saying that they didn’t dare.
Soon after, Han Li returned to the wooden house on the hill while Qu Soul honestly guarded it.
Han Li had only been practicing his qi within the house for another three days when that Wang Changqing came looking for him again. This time, he had come to inform Han Li that he could go to the Immortal Pavilion on Immortal Mountain to apply for the qualifications for permanent residence on Kuixing Island, and by the way, he also had to determine a place for Han Li to cultivate. After all, every Immortal Cultivator on the island could have their own cave residence.
Although the place he could get was definitely a bit thinner in terms of spiritual qi because he hadn’t participated in the Spiritual Land Scramble Conference, he could finally have a place to cultivate.
Han Li carried the Gu family’s pledged guarantee and flew straight to the center of Kuixing Island, while Qu Soul naturally stayed in the hut.
Along the way, Han Li flew past seven or eight cities, and dozens of small towns, and finally saw the immortal mountain Wang Changqing had spoken of.
It was a huge green-colored mountain that was half as tall as the clouds, with three towering peaks sticking straight up into the sky, looking truly majestic and imposing. The smaller peaks beneath the giant peaks were even more numerous and countless.
At a glance, Han Li had no idea how wide this mountain was.
Han Li stared blankly at the so-called “Immortal Mountain”, somewhat dazed.
”Hehe, isn’t this Fellow Daoist Han?” A greeting suddenly came from behind Han Li. Han Li was slightly startled, feeling somewhat familiar, and hurriedly looked back.
Only to see that not far behind him, that weak Wen Boom was looking at him with a smile on his face, with a wheel-like flying phial at his feet.
”So it’s Fellow Daoist Wen, what a coincidence!” With a startled look, Han Li snorted and said.
”Hee hee! Yes, I didn’t expect to meet fellow Daoist either! I’m really impressed that fellow Daoist was able to defeat the cultivators of the escorting guard!”
”Escort Guard?” Han Li froze at the sound of the real point!
