"The 10 of you head to Mizar Peak at dawn tomorrow … The outer court martial competition this time will be held at Mizar Peak's Mizar Balcony! At that time, it will be personally presided over by the Peak Master of Mizar Peak. "
The curtains to the first round of the outer court martial competition had fallen, and the Megrez Peak outer court elder, Lu Qiu, looked at Duan Lingtian's group of 10 as he slowly spoke.
Duan Lingtian's group of 10 nodded, indicating that they understood.
In next to no time, the 10 Megrez Peak outer court elders led by Lu Qiu left successively.
"Congratulations Senior Brother He Dong!"
"Congratulations Senior Brother Wang Zhu!"
…
Subsequently, the group of outer court disciples started congratulating the outer court disciples that had advanced.
Especially the five seventh level Origin Core Stage outer court disciples led by He Dong, they were even surrounded by the group of outer court disciples.
All the outer court disciples were incomparably enthusiastic, and all wanted to form a good relationship with He Dong's group of five.
After all, the five of them were practically nailed to the inner court disciples in the future.
"Duan Lingtian, congratulations."
He Chun arrived before Duan Lingtian as well, and thanked Duan Lingtian.
Although he knew since long ago that with Duan Lingtian's strength, he would surely be able to pass through the first round of the outer court martial competition, but when it really came to this moment, he still felt happy for Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian nodded and smiled to He Chun, then the two of them walked side by side, following the group of Megrez Peak disciples to leave the Megrez Platform.
Duan Lingtian bid his farewells to He Chun, then left.
After leaving, Duan Lingtian's brows knit, then merged into the surging stream of people, moving back and forth, and only after half an hour did he conceal himself into a remote mountain path.
"Now, no matter who it is, it's impossible for them to follow me."
Duan Lingtian's actions earlier weren't superfluous, and it was precisely because he was worried about being followed.
Of course, it was mainly to guard against Zhao Lin.
Today, Zhao Lin's display caused Duan Lingtian to feel pressure.
He believed that as long as Zhao Lin didn't achieve his goal, Zhao Lin wouldn't let him off.
So, he had to guard against Zhao now.
If he really allowed Zhao Lin to find the slightest chance, then he would surely die and be consigned to eternal damnation!
"Zhao Lin!"
Duan Lingtian's eyes flashed with coldness.
After taking a deep breath, Duan Lingtian eased up his furious and agitated feelings, then he headed towards the peak of Megrez Peak and returned to the stalactite cave.
But now, on a mountain path on Megrez Peak, a figure flashed out, and Zhao Lin appeared.
His expression was as ugly as it could be.
"That Duan Lingtian was actually able to shake me off … Looks like it wasn't a coincidence or luck that he was able to shake me off! In that case, he can discover me. "
At that instant, apart from the coldness in Zhao Lin's eyes, there was also a hint of greed. "How shocking! Duan Lingtian, I didn't expect you to have such means. Or perhaps … the reason why you were able to discover me was because of that miraculous Muscle Tendon Changing and Marrow Cleansing technique! "
Now, Zhao Lin had attributed all the unimaginable things that had happened to Duan Lingtian to the Muscle Tendon Changing and Marrow Cleansing Scroll.
His desire for the Muscle Tendon Changing and Marrow Cleansing Scroll grew stronger and stronger …
"Duan Lingtian, I'll surely obtain your Muscle Tendon Changing and Marrow Cleansing Scroll!"
Zhao Lin thought in his heart, seeming to have thought of something, then he left Megrez Peak and stepped onto the chain bridge. After arriving at the main peak, Dubhe Peak, he continued towards the distance and finally arrived at Alioth Peak.
Within a spacious gorge on Alioth Peak.
"Elder Zhao Lin?"
The young man with a warped and hideous appearance and a pair of triangular eyes frowned slightly when he saw the middle aged man that walked in.
He recognized the person before him, it was the Megrez Peak outer court elder, Zhao Lin.
"Shi Hao."
Zhao Lin saw Shi Hao and nodded indifferently.
Although Shi Hao was the number one disciple in the Seven Star Sword Sect's outer court, he was only a seventh level Origin Core Stage martial artist, and was no different than an ant in the eyes of Zhao Lin, an elder of the Seven Star Sword Sect.
"Elder Zhao Lin, I wonder why you're looking for me?"
Shi Hao went straight to the point and asked, as he didn't think that this Megrez Peak outer court elder had only come to visit him.
Although he and this Megrez Peak elder knew each other, they'd never conversed in the past, not even a single word …
"Shi Hao, a straightforward person doesn't beat around the bush. I've come to look for you today only for the sake of Duan Lingtian."
Zhao Lin went straight to the point as well, and his eyes flickered with a dense and fierce light.
"Hmm?"
Shi Hao frowned, his originally hideous and warped features were twisted together, and his pair of triangular eyes flickered with a cold sheen.
He saw the fierce light in Zhao Lin's eyes.
He only thought that this was Zhao Lin targeting him, and his face instantly sank. "Elder Zhao Lin, I'm sorry. If it's related to the matter of Duan Lingtian, then there's nothing to discuss between the two of us!"
Zhao Lin was the Megrez Peak outer court elder.
Duan Lingtian was a Megrez Peak disciple.
As far as he was concerned, Zhao Lin had surely come this time for the sake of making him dispel the thought of dealing with Duan Lingtian.
Zhao Lin's face sank when he heard Shi Hao, and his eyes emitted dense coldness.
Whoosh!
Zhao Lin raised his hand, and his sleeve swelled up as he abruptly swept out.
Instantly, a few hundred ancient mammoth silhouettes condensed into form above Zhao Lin …
Bang!
An enormous bang sounded out, and Shi Hao was swept flying by Zhao Lin's sleeve like an arrow that left the bowstring.
Bang!
Shi Hao fell to the ground in a sorry state, and he ceaselessly spat out blood from his mouth, but his triangular eyes stared fixedly at Zhao Lin, and contained frightening coldness mixed within. "Zhao Lin, you dare touch me?"
"Touch you?"
Zhao Lin sneered, his figure flashed out, and in the blink of an eye, he'd arrived before Shi Hao, and the Origin Energy in his hand roiled and condensed. "Do you believe that once this hand of mine descends, you'll die for sure?!"
He'd already held back when he swung out his sleeve earlier. If he exerted his full strength, then Shi Hao would have died for sure!
Within this gorge, even if he killed Shi Hao, no one would know that it was done by him, and there was utterly no need to worry about the Seven Star Sword Sect blaming him.
Shi Hao's face sank, and the coldness in his triangular eyes grew even colder. "So what? Even if I die, I won't let that Duan Lingtian off … He crippled my sister's Dantian, so I must make him die! No one is able to stop me! "
Shi Hao's words caused Zhao Lin's face to freeze. "You … Do you think I'm asking you to let Duan Lingtian off?"
"Could it be that you aren't?"
Shi Hao sneered, and his triangular eyes were cold as before.
"Hmph!"
Zhao Lin grunted coldly and scolded. "Idiot! I wish for nothing more than to make that Duan Lingtian die, but you actually think I'm asking you to let him off? Truly laughable. "
The enraged expression on Shi Hao's face completely froze, and he looked at Zhao Lin with suspicion. "Elder Zhao Lin, is what you said true?"
"Do you think I have to lie to you?"
Zhao Lin raised his hand, and a grade seven Gold Injury Pill flew out to descend into Shi Hao's hand. "Consume it. “
Shi Hao took a deep breath and consumed the medicinal pill, causing his injuries to recover, and he stood up with a slightly apologetic expression. "Elder Zhao Lin, I'm sorry, it was Shi Hao who misunderstood you … But, I wonder why Elder Zhao Lin has come here this time?"
"I naturally came here to give you a chance to kill Duan Lingtian …."
Zhao Lin's gaze went cold as he slowly spoke.
When he saw Shi Hao's bewildered expression, Zhao Lin continued. "Shi Hao, you wouldn't be thinking that if you encounter Duan Lingtian tomorrow, you'll be able to kill him, right? The outer court martial competition has always strictly prohibited outer court disciples from killing each other. If you really dare to directly kill that Duan Lingtian, then I'm afraid the trouble you'll face won't be small. "
"Hmph!"
Shi Hao's face sank, and traces of coldness appeared in his eyes. "So what? For the sake of my sister, Shi Yan, I'll surely burn that Duan Lingtian's bones and scatter his ashes, no matter the cost! The rules of the Seven Star Sword Sect are unable to stop me. "
"Then what if you're able to kill Duan Lingtian and don't have to violate the rules of the Seven Star Sword Sect?"
Zhao Lin said indifferently.
"Elder Zhao Lin, what do you mean by this?"
Shi Hao frowned and had a puzzled expression.
"If I have a way to make tomorrow's outer court martial competition become a life and death competition … What do you think? Wouldn't you feel like a fish in water? "
The corners of Zhao Lin's mouth curled into a smile that concealed a scheme.
"Really?"
Shi Hao's eyes shone. If it was really possible, then even if he killed Duan Lingtian, he wouldn't violate the rules of the Seven Star Sword Sect.
After all, it was said that it would be a life and death competition, and even if someone died, it would be understandable.
"Is there any need for me to deceive you?"
Zhao Lin had a face full of confidence.
Shi Hao took a deep breath, then looked at Zhao Lin with a burning gaze. "Elder Zhao Lin, you specially came to look for me and tell me this matter … You ought to not have come just to tell me this good news, right?"
Zhao Lin nodded. "Of course. My request is extremely simple. After you kill Duan Lingtian, I want his Spatial Ring. "
"Just this?"
Shi Hao was stunned. This request was indeed extremely simple.
Although he'd realized that Duan Lingtian's Spatial Ring ought to have something Zhao Lin needed, he didn't care.
He only wanted to take revenge for his younger sister.
"Just this."
Zhao Lin nodded once more. "How about it?"
"Elder Zhao Lin, I promise you. So long as you're able to make tomorrow's outer court martial competition become a life and death competition! "
Shi Hao agreed. As far as he was concerned, this was a good thing that came knocking on his door.
"Alright."
Zhao Lin smiled and left in satisfaction.
As far as he was concerned, so long as he obtained Duan Lingtian's Spatial Ring, he would surely be able to obtain the Muscle Meridian Rebirth Scroll.
From Duan Lingtian's current accomplishments, he was able to realize that the Muscle Meridian Rebirth Scroll wasn't simple. He was almost certain that Duan Lingtian would surely carry a cultivation method like this with him …
After all, the more profound the cultivation method, the more complicated it was.
It was extremely difficult to remember.
Usually, one would carry it with them.
At the side of the cliff at the peak of Megrez Peak, Duan Lingtian was half lying on a crooked tree that was concealed within the clouds and mist, leaning on the strong branch of the crooked tree.
"Two little fellows that cause others to worry about."
As he drank the Monkey Wine and gazed towards the direction of the primeval forest, Duan Lingtian thought of the two little pythons once more.
"I wonder if Kerr has returned."
When he thought of Kerr, a smile appeared on Duan Lingtian's face.
That delicate and pitiful young girl he met on the streets of Fresh Breeze Town all those years ago was now able to take charge of herself. At the same time that he felt gratified, he also felt pity and love in his heart.
That was his woman.
