CIATB Chapter 1324 Involvement
Chapter 1324 Involvement
At the moment when Wang Lu killed the monk, the towering holy mountain "cracked", and a frosty and cold order board broke from the middle, making a crisp sound, which floated around in this not-too-small cave.
A tall, square-faced, middle-aged man with a cold expression looked at the sudden shattering of the token, as if he had expected it. He didn't even raise his eyelids. He just said to the void indifferently: "The monk Cheng who guarded the second stage is dead. The mountain invader will go to the third stage soon. Let Liu Qi guard this stage to test the true strength of the newcomer."
"I will obey the will of heaven."
An extremely respectful voice sounded from somewhere.
Xu Tian said "hmm" and waved his hand to signal the person in the dark to make arrangements.
Unexpectedly, the voice sounded again, hesitantly and tremblingly said: "I have not yet found out the identity of the man in black, please punish me."
Xu Tian was unmoved when he heard this, and said calmly, "Cheng Monk seems to have reached the sixth floor, and he can be considered one of the masters of my secret clan, but the martial arts tower itself also has subtle loopholes. He was just lucky enough to find a loophole, but he is actually a waste. He has been hovering in front of the realm of the Supreme for so many years, neither high nor low. If he dies, he dies. There is nothing to regret. If Liu Qi can't bring anything back, is there any need to check the other party's identity?"
"Yes. But, does Song Fengyu need to make some adjustments?"
Xu Tian said calmly: "Liu Fangfei has been imprisoned for more than 1,300 years. I hope this boy can make it to the Holy Mountain, but Song Mingtang has died in the third stage, so there is no need to interfere too much. Besides, Luo Fangzhou has set an example for the people behind him. This person's strength is not inferior to Gao Zheng. If you annoy him, he will have to come out to clean up the mess. It's better to have less trouble than more."
"What? Luo Fangzhou is only on the fifth floor of the Wu Tower."
The person in the dark exclaimed in disbelief.
"The Martial Arts Tower opens once every hundred years. Since this person entered the fifth floor after reaching the Spirit Level, he has been still on the fifth floor for twenty consecutive sessions. Don't you find it strange?"
"Your doubts are normal. Are you thinking that many people would stay where they are in the Martial Tower and not make any progress even if they spend their entire lives there? That's correct. But it's ridiculously wrong for Luo Fangzhou. Without him, he has advanced from the 22nd place to the second place on the fifth floor. He has made solid progress step by step."
"However, what is weird is this slow but steady progress. You know, the number, cultivation, and strength of people entering the Martial Arts Tower each time have changed dramatically compared to a hundred years ago. However, this person seems to see through everyone's true and false. He improves his rank accurately every time, and perfectly preserves his own strength, so that outsiders have no idea of his true background and trump card."
"The first ten times did not attract people's attention, including me. It was not until the fifteenth time that I became aware of it. However, by the time I realized it, fifteen hundred years had passed and I could not catch up. It was also during the sixteenth time that almost all the great masters became alert and immediately developed a strong fear of him, fearing that they would be replaced by him."
"You know what's the scariest thing? It's not the unpredictable unknown, but knowing that a powerful enemy is right in front of you, but knowing nothing about him. Luo Fangzhou is such a person who deliberately exposes himself and makes himself invulnerable."
"I will obey the will of heaven!"
There was a hint of trembling in the traceless voice.
Xu Tian nodded, and the cave returned to peace again.
As it concerns the rare treasure bluestone, as the first person in power, he would not miss this item, so he made the arrangement to replace the generals in the third stage.
I believe that Ruofei will convey his meaning to Liu Qi word for word.
If Liu Qi loses, there won't be many people left on his side who can fight.
Hey, what will Gao Zheng do if Liu Qi loses?
A deep calculation emerged in Cheng Seng's eyes the moment he was defeated...
Hope so.
As for Song Fengyu, he was not a good man, so how could he be so kind as not to make arrangements?
Instead, one stone caused a thousand ripples, and everyone's eyes were cast on the man in black who obtained the bluestone.
Fortunately, as the first person in power, he has the right to win the first battle.
Liu Qi, Liu Qi, you raise your troops for a thousand days but only use them for a moment. I hope you won't let me down.
At the same time, on the top of a mountain, there stands an octagonal cloud pavilion.
A man and a woman were playing chess in the pavilion.
On the chessboard, the two men fought back and forth, attacking fiercely and neither giving in, both determined and brutal to win the game in one battle.
In less than half a minute, a red light flashed through the turbulent clouds. The next moment, a young man with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, who was as sharp as a sword unsheathed, walked up to the chessboard and sat on a stone bench beside it, watching the two people's endless deadly moves and evenly matched game with great interest.
An hour later, the chess situation changed from being smooth sailing to being extremely decisive in the final stage.
Both sides are preparing for battle.
A life-and-death battle is about to begin.
At this point, the two of them stopped at the same time.
All three of them have strange looks and stand out from the crowd.
The male cultivator was handsome and elegant, and his every move was carefree and gentle.
The woman is beautiful, gentle and delicate, giving people a warm feeling like a spring breeze.
The man who came later said solemnly: "Xu Tian sent Liu Qi to the third stage. It seems that he is determined to get the blue stone."
"Oh," the modest male cultivator smiled, "Although I have long known that Monk Cheng is more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything, I never expected him to be so vulnerable. Not only that, he even wanted to take the bluestone for himself, which is simply too foolish. Bluestone, bluestone, everyone in the world says that you are a magical thing, but in my eyes, maybe not. What do you think, sister Yao?"
Peng Yao smiled slightly and said softly: "It is undeniable that Monk Cheng still has some outstanding qualities. At least in complex and ever-changing situations, his decisiveness often makes us applaud and we cannot even compare to him. That is why he has the position of the second monk."
Having said that, Peng Yao glanced at the two of them and stopped talking.
"Well, Sister Yao is right, but in the world of immortal cultivation, strength is everything. Even if he had a cunning plan, he was ultimately defeated and died tragically on the spot."
"It is true that Xu Tian had the upper hand, but so what? Liu Qi is very strong, but it does not mean he can definitely beat that person. What do you think, Junior Brother Leng?"
Gao Zheng asked with a smile.
Leng Yu's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he said coldly: "We have to accept Xu Tian's conspiracy. What he wants is the three of us to take action. In this way, his wish will be fulfilled. With that person's momentum like a tiger descending from the mountain, I believe he will be able to enter the fourth stage in no time."
"I agree with what Senior Brother Gao said. The bluestone is most likely useless. It is like chicken ribs that are tasty to eat but a pity to discard. However, it is also like a treasure in the fog that makes people eager to get it but cannot see it clearly. Regardless of whether it is useful or not, if Xu Tian gets it, you and I will definitely be envious. Anyway, we will fight him sooner or later, so why not take advantage of the bluestone's sudden appearance to take it for ourselves and break his impromptu arrangement this time, otherwise he will definitely lead us by the nose."
"Ha, maybe a psychological blow is the most effective. Besides, if you and I don't take it, it will be a bargain for Luo Fangzhou and his group who sit on the mountain and watch the fight."
After saying that, Leng Yu stood up and bowed to the two of them solemnly.
Gao Zheng and Peng Yao stood up and returned the greeting earnestly, watching him escape.
At this point, Wang Lu was involuntarily drawn into the vortex of the struggle among the three major forces of the Secret Clan without realizing it.
