"Don't say that with my current cultivation level, I can't detect the existence of the innate spiritual roots with my spiritual consciousness... Even if I can detect, I can detect the existence of the innate spiritual roots. Could it be that, Elder Li An, do you think I can detect the existence of the innate spiritual roots?
When Gu Chun is safe and sound, destroy his innate spiritual roots?"
"As far as I know, even the existence of the 'Ninth Transformation of the Holy Immortal' dare not say that he can destroy a person's innate spiritual root without damaging that person's soul!"
Duan Lingtian's words were concise and well-founded.
Speaking later, before Li An could respond, Duan Lingtian's face rose with anger, and he continued indignantly:
"Elder Li An, I know that I killed the son of your best friend, the fifth elder of the Beiqi Sect, 'Yang Chong', that day. You have always been dissatisfied and wanted to seek revenge from me..."
"If you want to take revenge on me, just kill me! Why are you thinking of ways to slander me and take revenge on me?!"
Wow!!
Li An's expression changed drastically. He didn't expect Duan Lingtian to say this in front of so many people.
Noticing the thousands of strange glances surrounding him, he also realized that the situation in front of him had been reversed by Duan Lingtian, and he became passive instead.
"you……"
Li An spoke with a gloomy expression.
But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted again by Duan Lingtian, "Although, I don't know, Elder Li An, whether the innate spiritual root of your direct disciple 'Gu Chun' has really been destroyed..."
"Even if his innate spiritual root is really destroyed, Elder Li An, you should kill him, and then come to me, slander me, and take revenge on me. In that case, maybe someone will believe what you say, Elder Li An.
"
Duan Lingtian's last words sounded like he was kindly reminding Li An, but in fact he was mocking Li An.
Suddenly, Li An's expression changed again, and when he looked at Duan Lingtian, his eyes seemed to be able to spit out fire.
If looks could kill, Duan Lingtian would have been killed countless times!
After hearing Duan Lingtian's words, the thousands of Xuanwu disciples present nodded again.
yes.
If Li An comes to Duan Lingtian again after killing Gu Chun, slanders Duan Lingtian, and takes revenge on Duan Lingtian, maybe they will trust Li An even more.
He accused Duan Lingtian of destroying Gu Chun's innate spiritual root, but Gu Chun did not die.
This is undoubtedly the 'last resort' to retaliate against Duan Lingtian!
Killing Gu Chun and using Gu Chun's death to slander Duan Lingtian is the 'best policy'.
However, Li An did not use the best strategy, but used the worst strategy.
Doesn’t this insult their ‘intelligence’?
Although they only played the role of 'bystanders' in the whole incident, they were not stupid, and they still had the most basic ability to distinguish between true and false.
"Duan Lingtian, what nonsense are you talking about?!"
Seeing Duan Lingtian pointing all public opinions at his master, occupying the moral high ground and gaining the upper hand, Gu Chun's expression suddenly changed, and he shouted out in shame and anger:
"My innate spiritual root was destroyed by you! If it weren't for you, why did you use your domain to block other people's sight when you knocked me unconscious? Why don't you have a guilty conscience?"
As soon as Gu Chun said these words, many Xuanwu Temple disciples present looked puzzled.
These Xuanwu Temple disciples all witnessed the conflict between Duan Lingtian and Gu Chun that day.
They remembered that Duan Lingtian did block their sight with the domain at that time, so that they did not see Duan Lingtian and Gu Chun for a while.
As for what Duan Lingtian is doing in the field, they have no idea.
"Could it be that Gu Chun's innate spiritual root is really Duan Lingtian's waste?"
The few Xuanwu Temple disciples present that day suddenly felt a little shaken by some of the things they had already decided in their hearts.
Before Duan Lingtian could respond, Gu Chun continued: "In addition, regarding the destruction of my innate spiritual root, I dare to make a 'Thunder Punishment Oath'..."
As he spoke, Gu Chun pinched his finger and a drop of blood rose into the air.
At the same time, he began to recite his oath loudly in front of everyone, "If my innate spiritual roots are not destroyed, I am willing to be killed by the Nine-Nine Thunder Tribulation!"
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
Accompanied by nine thunders, the oath of thunder punishment came true.
And Gu Chun did not attract thunder punishment, which is enough to prove that he did not lie, what he said was true... His innate spiritual root was indeed destroyed!
Suddenly, the group of Xuanwu Temple disciples present had no doubts about this matter.
"Is it really useless?"
At this time, these Xuanwu Temple disciples were fully convinced that Gu Chun's innate spiritual roots had indeed been destroyed, and that he and his master 'Li An' did not lie.
"Now, I have made an oath of thunder punishment that my innate spiritual roots will be abolished..."
After making the Thunder Punishment Oath, Gu Chun's sharp eyes fell on Duan Lingtian, and then said coldly: "You, Duan Lingtian, dare to make the Thunder Punishment Oath and say that you have not destroyed my innate spiritual root? You...
...Dare you?!"
After the words fell, Gu Chun took a step forward and stood side by side with Li An, staring at Duan Lingtian with cold eyes.
Do you dare?!
For a moment, everyone's attention shifted to Duan Lingtian again.
"Does this Duan Lingtian dare to make a thunder punishment oath?"
"You should dare... After all, with his little cultivation, it is impossible to destroy Gu Chun's innate spiritual roots!"
"What if he doesn't dare?"
"That only shows that he has a guilty conscience."
…
Although a group of Xuanwu disciples present still didn't believe that Duan Lingtian could destroy Gu Chun's innate spiritual root, Gu Chun's tough attitude now made them feel a little shaken.
If Gu Chun dared to stand next to him in so many people, Li An would definitely be angry and blame Gu Chun for being young!
But now, instead of getting angry, Li An secretly praised the wit of this direct disciple whom he didn't like very much.
Judging from the current situation, everything he, his personal disciple, has done has reversed their current situation of losing power, turning them from 'passive' to 'active' again!
This feeling made him feel very comfortable, and he felt that the haze in his heart was gone.
At this time, Li An only felt that this direct disciple was much more pleasing to his eyes.
"Make a thunder-punishment oath and say that I have not destroyed your innate spiritual roots?"
Under the gaze of everyone, Duan Lingtian smiled, and then said: "Gu Chun, the thunder punishment oath you asked me to make is a bit redundant, right?"
"What? You don't dare?!"
Gu Chun sneered, "If you don't dare, you have a guilty conscience! It is also equivalent to indirectly admitting that my innate spiritual root is yours... Destroying my innate spiritual root is equivalent to cutting off my path to martial arts. This is not the same as
Crippling me makes no difference!"
"Duan Lingtian, according to the rules of the Zoroastrian Cult, you must know what the crime should be if you harm your fellow disciples, right?"
As Gu Chun's words fell, waves of terrifying aura rose up from Li An's body.
As this aura rose up, it also locked onto Duan Lingtian silently.
Be ready to punish Duan Lingtian at any time!
"I guess you don't dare!"
However, Duan Lingtian's next words made the terrifying aura rising from Li An dissipate.
Li An stared at Duan Lingtian. He didn't know why Duan Lingtian suddenly said such words to Gu Chun.
"I don't dare? Why don't I dare? Duan Lingtian, with so many people watching, don't even think about changing the topic!!"
Gu Chun said disdainfully.
"I said, it's a bit redundant for you to ask me to make this Thunder Punishment Oath. Since you always say that I destroyed your innate spiritual root... then you can make a Thunder Punishment Oath yourself and say that I destroyed it.
Your innate spiritual root, if it weren’t for this, you would be willing to be killed by thunder!”
"As long as you are not killed by Thunder Punishment in the end, it means that I have indeed destroyed your innate spiritual root! If you are killed by Thunder Punishment, it means that you are slandering me!"
Under the questioning gazes of thousands of Xuanwu Temple disciples, Duan Lingtian's expression remained unchanged, he looked directly at Gu Chun and said loudly.
What you said was so accurate!
Gu Chun asked him to make a vow of thunder and punishment, and he also suggested that Gu Chun make a pledge of thunder and punishment.
At first glance, these two oaths of thunder punishment have almost the same meaning. They can confirm whether Gu Chun's innate spiritual root was destroyed by Duan Lingtian, but the person who swore the oath has changed.
Whoosh!
Gu Chun's expression changed, because despite all his calculations, he never expected that Duan Lingtian would come up with such a move and defeat him.
Duan Lingtian actually asked him to make a thunder punishment oath!
Although this Thunder Punishment Oath sounded like the same meaning at first, he really didn't dare to make the oath himself!
Just because, until now, it was only his guess whether Duan Lingtian had destroyed his innate spiritual root.
Even if he thought there was a 99% chance that Duan Lingtian could do it, there was still a 1% chance of instability.
It was related to his wealth and life, even if it was a 1% chance, he wouldn't dare to gamble!
Therefore, he really didn't dare to ask him to make the oath of thunder punishment mentioned by Duan Lingtian.
"Duan Lingtian, I have already made an oath of thunder punishment... This time, even if it is my turn, it is your turn, Duan Lingtian, to make a vow of thunder punishment!"
At this point, Gu Chun could only use forceful reasoning.
"Strong words!"
When Gu Chun finished speaking, Duan Lingtian couldn't help but sneer, "Gu Chun, it was you who proposed the oath of thunder and punishment from the beginning to the end... Now, we are faced with a problem that can be solved by either of you or me who takes the oath of thunder and punishment.
, why should you, the one who took the initiative to mention the Thunder Punishment Oath, make the Thunder Punishment Oath? No matter how many turns it takes, it won’t be my turn!”
"Unless... you know that I didn't destroy your innate spiritual roots, so you don't dare to make the Thunder Punishment Pledge!"
When talking about it later, the sneer on Duan Lingtian's face became even bigger.
From the moment he asked Gu Chun to make a thunder punishment oath, Duan Lingtian was making a 'big gamble'.
The stake in this huge gamble is his own wealth and life.
If he loses the bet, he dies.
If the bet wins, he lives.
What he was betting on was that Gu Chun would not dare to make the oath of thunder and punishment that he required!
Of course, the reason why he dared to bet was because Duan Lingtian was 100% certain:
Regarding the fact that he devoured Gu Chun's innate spiritual root, Gu Chun not only had no knowledge, but was not sure about it. From the beginning to the end, he was just guessing without any real evidence.
Asking him to make an oath of thunder and punishment is just to get a "white wolf with nothing"!
