Chapter 695

A Good Romance

On the second day after Zhao Lun delivered his "gift", Luo Ba issued a duel invitation, wanting to have a duel to the death with Zhao Lun.

This was not an ordinary spar, but a duel to the death.

In the Scarlet Heaven Academy, if both parties were at the same cultivation level, such as the low extreme of the Mountain River Tier or the Shattering Void Tier, then they could spar at any time and place. As long as one party wanted to fight, there was no need for the other party's consent.

However, this kind of spar could not result in death or disability. Otherwise, the Academy would pursue the matter.

Thus, if they wanted to have a duel to the death, then they would first have to issue a public challenge and obtain the other party's consent before they could begin. In this way, no matter what the final result was, neither party would have to take responsibility.

However, after so many years, the number of duels to the death that occurred was pitifully low.

A Duel to the Death

Everyone in the Academy was astonished. Though not many people dared to challenge a cultivator from a small world, Ling Han was different. He was an emperor that had come from opening the sky, which meant that his strength was as strong as 20 Stars.

Moreover, Luo Ba should be even more aware of the gap in strength between him and Ling Han. Previously, he had been slapped twice by the latter, and did not have the slightest bit of temper. Yet now, he was proposing a duel to the death with Ling Han. What was wrong with him?

Could it be that Luo Ba's strength had improved greatly, and he believed that he could defeat Ling Han?

Now that Luo Ba had already made his move, it was only a matter of whether Ling Han would accept it or not.

Ling Han's answer was very straightforward. If he paid, then he would fight. The appearance fee was 10 True Origin Stones, and if he won, he would have to pay another 100 True Origin Stones. He would sign the agreement first before fighting.

True enough, this guy had not changed at all.

After knowing Ling Han's answer, everyone felt that it was funny. He had obviously encountered a strong opponent like Zhao Lun, yet he was still not affected. What was this guy's brain made of? It was really too thick, wasn't it?

This time, Luo Ba also responded very quickly, and agreed to Ling Han's conditions.

The two of them agreed to battle three days later.

Ling Han could be sure that Luo Ba's strength had definitely improved greatly, and that was why he was willing to have a duel to the death with him. Otherwise, it was definitely impossible that he would give away True Origin Stones and his life. How could there be such a good person in this world?

But he was unafraid. Aside from him, no one else knew exactly what level his current battle prowess had reached.

Strength 17 Stars, battle prowess 25 Stars.

In the Shattering Void Tier, a single Star was a world of difference, and from 20 Stars onward, the increase of battle prowess became incredibly difficult. This also meant that with every increase of one Star, the gap in battle prowess would also be incredibly huge.

Luo Ba could not only charge up to 20 Stars of battle prowess in a short few days, but had even surpassed five Stars!

Who would believe that?

Ling Han's life had not changed in the slightest. He was very curious about that white-haired old man in the library. Previously, he had also asked others about him, but no one could tell him the origins of that Old Man Xu. They only knew that he had been in the library a very long time ago, and every time, he would look as if he was about to die, but he just did not die. It was incredibly strange.

He arrived at the library, and saw that Old Man Xu was still dozing off just like last time. He bowed, and said, "Greetings, Senior."

Old Man Xu raised his head and glanced at him. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and then dimmed again. He coughed, and said, "Young man, you have mastered the Six Techniques Return to One?"

Ling Han was shocked, and blurted out, "How did Senior know?"

"Hehe, if that were not the case, how could your power possibly have increased so much in a short month's time?" Old Man Xu countered with a question.

Could this old man determine his actual power?

Ling Han nodded, and said, "Senior's judgment is indeed brilliant. This junior is impressed."

Old Man Xu chuckled, and said, "However, young man, your situation is not very good."

Ling Han smiled, and said, "It's all right. This junior should still be able to hold on."

Old Man Xu stared at Ling Han. After a long while, he finally said, "This old man has a technique that can't be considered very powerful. Are you interested in learning it?"

This old man was definitely an elite. If he said that it wasn't very powerful, then he was definitely being modest.

Ling Han hurriedly said, "Please enlighten me, Senior."

Old Man Xu closed his eyes as if he were taking a nap. Just when Ling Han thought that he was really going to fall asleep, he suddenly opened his mouth, and said, "This secret technique is called the Seven Kill Subduing Soul Technique. Using the power of one's divine sense to attack the opponent, it can cause the opponent to fall into a temporary state of paralysis. The stronger and more resilient your divine sense is, the greater the effect it can have on the opponent. "

Ling Han was instantly pleasantly surprised. His divine sense was very powerful, and also very resilient. However, there was no technique that could allow his divine sense to display its effects.

Under the effect of the Reincarnation Tea, his divine sense was far more powerful than an ordinary cultivator in the ninth layer of the Shattering Void Tier. Moreover, he had also cultivated the second layer of the Indestructible Heaven's Scroll, so his divine sense was also becoming more resilient with each passing day.

If he learned the Seven Kill Subduing Soul Technique, then even a cultivator in the Mountain River Tier could possibly be affected and paralyzed by him if they were caught off guard.

And what was the greatest effect of this?

In the instant of paralysis, no matter how short, one would definitely fall into a state of unconsciousness. At that time, he would be able to draw his opponent into the Black Tower.

Once he entered the Black Tower, he would be able to dominate everything!

Say, how could Ling Han not be pleasantly surprised?

"However, Senior, I have no intention of taking you as my master," Ling Han said.

Old Man Xu smiled, and said, "It's just a technique that's not very pleasing to my eyes. Just take it that I found it pleasing to your eyes, and taught it to you."

"Thank you, Senior," Ling Han said solemnly. After a pause, he continued, "In the future, if there's anything I can do to help, I will definitely not refuse!"

Old Man Xu chuckled, nodded, and said, "Perhaps there'll really come a day when you'll be able to help me."

Ling Han knew that there was no hatred without reason in this world, and there was also no love without reason. If it was said that Old Man Xu had taught him the Seven Kill Subduing Soul Technique because he cherished talent, Ling Han would not believe it. After all, he had only seen it twice.

However, this secret technique sounded very suitable for him, and he could not bring himself to refuse it.

"Come here." Old Man Xu nodded at Ling Han.

Ling Han walked over, and Old Man Xu stretched out a finger. There was a ball of white light flickering on his fingertip, and he pressed it down on Ling Han's forehead.

This was a vital point. If Old Man Xu was filled with killing intent, then with a light press, Ling Han would not even have the chance to hide into the Black Tower. His soul would directly be destroyed.

Ling Han chose to believe. Thus, he stood as steady as a mountain.

Old Man Xu's finger pressed down. Weng, instantly, innumerable characters surged into Ling Han's mind.

Every character was endlessly complicated, and could not be expressed or explained with words. It was as if they were a part of the Dao of Heaven and Earth, a kind of Regulation that could only be understood, and could not be expressed in words.

Ling Han sat down, and could not help but fumble and probe. Every little bit of improvement he made, he could not help but feel overjoyed. However, just as he was lost in thought, he felt a pat on his shoulder, and his thoughts were interrupted.

He opened his eyes, and saw Old Man Xu smiling at him, and saying, "You have already meditated for three days, so you should have an appointment today, right?"

Ling Han was startled. Three days had already passed, so why did it feel like only an instant had passed?

He nodded, and said, "Thank you, Senior. I'll come and visit another day."

"Go." Old Man Xu waved him off.
