"Okay, get out of the way, I have a game this morning."
After Chu Tianjiao finished speaking, he was about to go out again, but was stopped by Li Tian again.
"Hey!" Chu Tianjiao said with a black line on his face: "Yang Yu, I'm warning you, my patience is limited!"
"You can compete only if you beat me." Li Tian chuckled.
Chu Tianjiao said with a dark face: "Yang Yu, I advise you to cherish life!"
"I think..." Li Tian paused, looked at Chu Tianjiao, and chuckled: "With your strength, I'm afraid it's not possible."
Chu Tianjiao:...
Now, Chu Tianjiao had the feeling that Li Tian was crazy.
At this time, Li Tian said again: "Let's go to the back mountain, there is a lot of space there."
"Hmph." Chu Tianjiao snorted coldly: "You are looking for abuse on your own, so it's not my fault."
Chen Yanan and others also wanted to follow, but were stopped by Li Tian.
"We will resolve the matter between the two of us. Don't come with us," Li Tiandao said.
"But if Chu Tianjiao's attack is serious and hurts you..."
Li Tian smiled: "Don't worry, I have my own countermeasures."
After saying that, Li Tian and Chu Tianjiao left together.
Behind the Sun Moon Gate station there is a deserted valley.
The valley is very deep, the morning sun has not yet risen, and the valley is full of shadows.
This is the place Li Tian specially selected after studying the topographic map.
Of course, Chu Tianjiao didn't know this.
"End it quickly, don't delay my game."
After Chu Tianjiao finished speaking, his figure disappeared instantly.
This is a spatial attribute spell that Chu Tianjiao understood.
Space spells are non-element spells and can be used by spiritual roots of any attribute.
However, space spells are extremely rare and few people can master them.
Chu Tianjiao has used space spells many times in the ring before, and as his level has improved, his space spells have become more and more sophisticated.
The next moment, Chu Tianjiao suddenly appeared behind Li Tian.
A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "He looks like a wooden man, it's over!"
However, when he punched Li Tian from behind, Li Tian suddenly disappeared.
Chu Tianjiao was completely stunned.
"What?! Does this guy also know space magic?!"
After all, in the shadows, the effect of Shadow Escape is very similar to that of space spells.
At this time, Chu Tianjiao suddenly felt a strong crisis coming from behind.
He didn't look back and used space magic again to escape.
When he showed his figure dozens of meters away, Li Tian was still nowhere to be found in this huge valley.
"What's going on? Space spells are equivalent to short-distance teleportation and cannot maintain the invisible state for a long time! Where is this guy?"
At this time, Li Tian appeared mysteriously behind Chu Tianjiao again, and Chu Tianjiao was once again forced to use space magic to escape.
He was a little crazy.
"Hey, Yang Yu, you're a despicable guy. If you have the guts to come out to fight, what's the point of hiding in the shadows? Huh?"
At this time, Chu Tianjiao suddenly reacted.
His pupils shrank.
"Is it a shadow spell?"
This speculation made Chu Tianjiao extremely surprised.
You know, he heard his master mention the shadow system, which is an extremely rare talent that requires dark spiritual roots in the body to cast shadow spells. However, among cultivators, those with dark spiritual roots are like a rarity.
And this Yang Yu, after already showing the fire, thunder, water and wind elements, he actually still has dark spiritual roots??
Chu Tianjiao was completely stunned.
"Is this guy a pervert? Is this a talent that people on earth can have??"
Phew~
Taking a deep breath, Chu Tianjiao calmed down.
"Although shadow spells are powerful, they also have limitations. They can only be cast in the shadows. So..."
Chu Tianjiao casually raised his hand to the sky, and instantly a huge fireball lit up the entire valley.
Li Tian's figure also appeared.
Chu Tianjiao's ever-changing poker face revealed a sneer: "Once the shadow spell is cracked, it will be useless. Yang Yu, you lose."
"Yeah?"
Li Tian grinned, and then suddenly there was a strong wind in the valley, and countless rocks were swept into the air by the whirlwind, once again throwing countless mottled shadows on the ground.
Chu Tianjiao's expression changed slightly.
"So there is another trick!"
He looked at the countless shadows around him, but he didn't know that Li Tian was hiding in that shadow.
While hesitating, Li Tian's figure appeared behind Chu Tianjiao again, and an ice sword was pressed against the back of Chu Tianjiao's neck.
"You lost." Li Tian chuckled.
Chu Tianjiao looked aggrieved.
There was no head-on confrontation at all in this fight. I only had the ninth level of Qi Condensation cultivation, so I couldn't display my fighting power.
But he also admitted that he did lose.
The shadow spells are simply unbeatable.
"I lost." Chu Tianjiao paused and then said calmly: "I will listen to you and not participate in today's game."
Li Tian grinned: "This is so good."
Chu Tianjiao had a dark look on his face.
He calmed down, looked at Li Tian, and said: "I heard Master say that shadow spells are extremely rare abilities and are the abilities of top assassins. But as a trump card skill, most people will not expose this trump card.
. Why do you want to expose it to me?"
"Now you know why I sent Chen Yanan and the others away, right? I don't want too many people to know."
Li Tian paused, looked at Chu Tianjiao, and said: "Actually, to be honest, I don't want you to know. But if I don't use shadow magic, it will be difficult to defeat you, and I won't be able to prevent you from participating in the arena competition."
After a pause, Li Tian looked solemn and said: "That Zhou Sheng is very dangerous. You are a genius, at least a super genius in understanding the skills. It would be a pity if you lost your life in the ring because of your stubbornness.
"
Chu Tianjiao was stunned.
He really didn't expect that Li Tian would think so much about him. He obviously always disliked him and was always against him.
He was silent and didn't speak.
At this time, because they were really worried about the two of them, Chen Yanan and others disobeyed Li Tian's order and came to the valley.
"How, how is it?" Chen Yanan asked.
"I lost." Chu Tianjiao said calmly.
"Eh?"
Everyone was collectively dumbfounded.
"I haven't heard, have I? Did Chu Tianjiao lose? Isn't he at the ninth level of Qi Condensation? How could he lose?"
Chu Tianjiao's expression was calm: "My skills are inferior to others. If you lose, you lose. I won't go to today's arena match."
After saying that, Chu Tianjiao left.
It took a long time for everyone to digest the news.
No one doubts Chu Tianjiao's words, because everyone knows his character and he will never lie on such an issue involving his dignity.
If you lose, you lose.
Pretending to win after losing is not Chu Tianjiao's character.
"But how did he lose?"
"No, we should ask, how did Yang Yu win? I always feel that this guy is full of mystery and incredibleness."
"Senior Sister will be surprised when she comes back from wandering around, right? The sects have all been merged into the Heavenly Palace, and a genius even more evil than my junior brother has appeared."
"Honestly, I'm a little shaken."
"Me too."
At this time, Li Tian chuckled and said: "Okay, practice hard, everyone is a treasure."
After saying that, Li Tian also left.
On the same day, when the host announced that Chu Tianjiao had withdrawn from the competition, the whole audience was in an uproar.
Choosing to withdraw from the competition at this time is basically admitting defeat.
"That Chu Tianjiao will take the initiative to admit defeat? I heard that this guy has a very strong self-esteem and is not convinced by anyone. Why did he suddenly admit defeat?"
"Who knows? Maybe it's because Zhou Sheng is too strong."
"Probably. The psychological pressure is too great to fight against Zhou Sheng. Either he will land safely or be killed on the spot. No one knows what his fate will be. Because he doesn't know, he will suffer psychologically. This Zhou Sheng is really
He is a bad guy, he is deliberately torturing his opponent."
"If you put it like that, this Zhou Sheng is too scary. His own strength is unfathomable, and he is so proficient in psychological tactics."
"Yeah, it feels scarier than Zhao Feilong from Baihua Valley. That Zhao Feilong is only good at curses. It's not Zhao Feilong that everyone is afraid of, but his power of curses. But this Zhou Sheng... is really scary
Already."
At this time, someone else said: "Do you think Yang Yu will retire from the competition? He has no chance of winning against Wan Long. Moreover, he also killed Wan Long's fellow disciple before. If he really gets into the ring, I'm afraid he will be beaten.
Wanlong killed him on the spot."
"I feel like he will also choose to retire."
"I agree, this is a wise choice."
...
Li Tian's game is in the afternoon.
After preventing Chu Tianjiao from participating in the arena competition, Li Tian came to somewhere in Kunlun Mountain again.
This is the place Leng Feiyan chose to practice before.
It looks like an ordinary place, but in fact it hides a mystery, and spiritual energy keeps gathering here.
Li Tian first released the Tai Chi barrier, then sat down cross-legged, took out the spirit stone and started practicing.
Time passed little by little, and Li Tian's consciousness unknowingly entered a very mysterious state, like a dream, but not like it.
"What is Tao? "The Book of Changes" says that one yin and one yang are called Tao. In addition, one is full and one is empty, one is declining and the other is growing, which is Tao. Things in the world are one of prosperity and one of decline, and one is suffering.
One joy, one sorrow, one joy, one cure and one chaos, they are all the Tao..."
I don't know how long it took, but it was already afternoon when Li Tian opened his eyes again.
He had hundreds of missed calls in his hand, most of them from Chu Xinyue. In addition, there were also calls from everyone in Tiangong, even from Xia Qianxue.
He wasn't on mute, but he didn't hear the phone ringing at all.
This shows that during these few hours, Li Tian's consciousness was completely immersed in the realization of the way of heaven.
"Um?"
Just when he was about to call Chu Xinyue back, Li Tian was suddenly stunned.
Only then did he realize that he had successfully broken through to the fifth level of Qi Condensation.
"Could it be that...that mysterious feeling just now was an epiphany?"
Li Tian was overjoyed.
This was the first time in this life that Li Tian caught the feeling of enlightenment.
The only pity is that maybe the understanding is not deep, and the realm has not directly soared several realms like Chu Tianjiao, but only one realm.
But even so, it's a huge improvement.
Originally, according to the speed at which spirit stones were consumed, it would probably take a long time for Li Tian to break through to the fifth level of Qi Condensation.
Mainly because of the lack of spiritual stones.
And this epiphany helped Li Tian at least save more than one billion worth of spiritual stones.
It’s truly ‘a dream worth a thousand gold’.
At this moment, in Li Tian’s Dantian.
Not only has the Flower of the Universe grown a lot, but the chaotic space it supports has also expanded countless times.
Li Tianneng could clearly sense that the spiritual power in the chaotic space was much stronger.
only...
Looking at the already very vast chaotic space, Li Tian felt a little sick.
"How many cultivation resources are needed to make further breakthroughs? I am so desperate without money!"
After complaining, Li Tian calmed down, lifted the barrier, and then called Chu Xinyue.
The call was picked up as soon as the call was connected.
"Li Tian?" Chu Xinyue's anxious voice sounded on the other end of the phone.
"Well, it's me." Li Tiandao.
Phew~
It was obvious that Chu Xinyue let out a breath, and then...
"Are you a pig? I called you so many times and you didn't even answer the phone! Do you know, I'm worried to death!" Chu Xinyue roared.
"Sorry, sorry, I'm practicing and have muted my phone." Li Tiandao.
"By the way, Chu Tianjiao has withdrawn from the competition." Chu Xinyue hesitated for a moment, then said: "How about you withdraw from the competition too? That Wanlong looks very dangerous."
Li Tian smiled: "No, I want to participate."
Chu Xinyue was very conflicted, but in the end she chose to respect Li Tian's decision.
"Then come here quickly, your game is about to start."
"knew."
When Li Tian rushed to the ring, Wan Long was already standing on the ring.
Li Tian was not seen.
"Is this guy like Chu Tianjiao, who retreated without a fight?"
Not only Wanlong thought so, but the audience, including the host at the commentary station, also thought so.
Today, the partners in the commentary box are still the three Laosan. The host is paired with two guests, Chen Hong and Tong Laosan.
"The game time is coming soon, but Yang Yu hasn't shown up yet. What do you two think?" the host asked.
Chen Hong smiled slightly: "Is there any need to guess? He must be scared and want to give up. Didn't Chu Tianjiao of their sect give up in the morning match?"
"I don't think so." Tong Laosan said lightly: "Our Deputy Sect Master Yang has never had the word 'surrender without a fight' in his dictionary. He must have encountered some difficulties."
Chen Hong grinned: "Don't be brave at this time. In fact, if he chooses to abandon the game, no one will say anything. After all, it is a miracle that he can reach this point. But miracles must end. And Wan
Long is the terminator."
Chen Hong now feels like giving advice and scolding Fang Qiu. He was so aggrieved that he couldn't breathe after being slapped in the face continuously by Li Tian.
And now, it was finally his turn to feel proud.
"No matter what, it's impossible for Yang Yu to perform another miracle!"
Thinking about the fact that Li Tian was "slapped" in the face continuously in the past, and that he was reduced from the "best prediction commentator" to the protagonist of the ghost video at Station B, life fell too fast, like a shooting star.
"But! Today is the day for me, Chen Hong, to wash away my stains!"
He looked at the ring below the stage. The place that originally belonged to Li Tian was still empty at this moment.
"There will be no more miracles! Today will be the day when I, Chen Hong, turn around!"
Then, a familiar voice came from far away.
"I've kept everyone waiting for a long time, I'm here."
