A Good Romance
.bqg6.cc
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 Ling Han.
It wasn't a normal spar, but a duel to the death.
In the Scarlet Heaven Academy, if both sides had the same level of Martial Art, such as the low extreme of the Mountain River Tier or the Shattering Void Tier, then they could spar at any time, anywhere. As long as one side wanted to fight, there was no need for the other side's consent.
However, such a spar couldn't result in death or disability, or the Academy would investigate.
Thus, if a duel to the death was to be carried out, then a public duel must first be arranged, and the other side's consent could be obtained before it could begin. In this way, no matter what the final result was, neither side would have to be responsible.
However, after so many years, the number of duels to the death was pitifully low.
A duel to the death
Everyone in the Academy was shocked. Although few could afford 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 strong enough to reach 20 Stars.
And Luo Ba should be more aware of the gap in strength between him and Ling Han. At that time, he had been slapped twice by the latter, and he didn't have the slightest temper, but now he proposed a duel to the death with Ling Han. What was wrong with him?
Could it be that Luo Ba's strength had greatly improved, and he believed that he could defeat Ling Han?
Now that Luo Ba had made his move, it was up to Ling Han to accept it.
Ling Han's answer was very straightforward. He'd fight if he paid. The appearance fee was 10 True Origin Stones, and if he won, he'd have to pay another 100 True Origin Stones. He would sign the agreement first before fighting.
As expected, this guy hadn't changed at all.
After knowing Ling Han's answer, everyone felt it was funny. He obviously had a strong opponent like Zhao Lun, yet he was still unaffected. What was this guy's brain made of? It was too thick, wasn't it?
This time, Luo Ba also responded very quickly, and agreed to Ling Han's condition.
Both sides agreed to fight three days later.
Ling Han could be sure that Luo Ba's strength had definitely improved greatly, which was why he would fight him to the death. Otherwise, it was impossible that he would give away True Origin Stones and his life. How could there be such a good person in the world?
But he was unafraid. Aside from him, no one knew what level his battle prowess had reached.
Strength 17 stars, Battle Prowess 25 stars
In the Shattering Void Tier, a single Star was akin to heaven and earth, and from twenty Stars onwards, the increase of battle prowess became incomparably difficult, which also meant that with every increase of one Star, the gap in battle prowess was also incomparably huge.
Luo Ba was able to not only charge up to 20 Stars of Battle Prowess in a short few days, but had even surpassed 5 Stars!
Who would believe that?
Ling Han's life did not change at all. He was very curious about the white-haired old man in the library. He had asked people before, but no one could tell him the origin of the old man Xu. They only knew that he had been in the library for a long time, and every time, he looked like he was about to die, but he did not die. It was very strange.
When he arrived at the library, he 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. His eyes suddenly shone brightly, but then they dimmed again. He coughed and said, "Young man, you've mastered the Six Laws Return to One?"
Ling Han was shocked and blurted out, "How did Senior know?"
"Hoho, if that were not the case, how could your power possibly have increased so much in a short month?" Old Man Xu retorted.
Could this old man determine his specific power?
Ling Han nodded, and said, "Senior's judgment is indeed brilliant. Junior is impressed."
Old Man Xu chuckled, and said, "However, Junior, your situation is not very good."
Ling Han also smiled, and said, "No matter, Junior should still be able to hold on."
Old Man Xu stared at Ling Han, and only after a long while did he say, "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 was taking a nap. Just when Ling Han thought 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 spirit to attack the opponent, it can cause the opponent to fall into a temporary state of paralysis. The stronger and more resilient your spirit is, the greater the effect it can have on the opponent. "
Ling Han was instantly pleasantly surprised. His spirit was very strong and resilient, but he didn't have any technique that could allow his spirit to display its effects.
Under the effect of the Reincarnation Tea, his spirit was far stronger than an ordinary cultivator in the ninth layer of the Shattering Void Tier, and he had also cultivated the second layer of the Indestructible Heaven's Scroll, so his spirit was also becoming more resilient day by day.
If he learned the Seven Kill Subduing Soul Technique, then even Mountain River Tier cultivators could be affected and paralyzed by him if they were caught off guard.
And what was the greatest effect of this?
The instant of paralysis, no matter how short, would definitely cause the opponent to fall into a state of unconsciousness, and he could then draw the opponent into the Black Tower.
Once he entered the Black Tower, he could dominate everything!
Say, how could Ling Han not be pleasantly surprised?
"However, Senior, I have no intention of taking you as my disciple," 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 as me teaching it to you because I find it pleasing to your eyes."
"Thank you, Senior," Ling Han said solemnly. He paused, and then continued, "In the future, if there's anything I can do to help, I definitely won't refuse."
Old Man Xu chuckled, nodded, and said, "Perhaps there will really be a day when you can help me."
Ling Han knew that there was no hatred without reason in this world, and there was no love without reason either. If it was said that Old Man Xu had taught him the Seven Kill Subduing Soul Technique because he cherished talent, Ling Han didn't really believe it. After all, he had only seen it twice.
However, this secret technique sounded very suitable for him, and he couldn't bring himself to refuse.
"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 his forehead.
This was a vital point. If Old Man Xu had any killing intent, then with a light press, Ling Han wouldn't even have the chance to hide in 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 couldn't 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 couldn't be expressed in words.
Ling Han sat down, and couldn't help but fumble and probe. Every bit of progress he made, he couldn't help but be 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've 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 his hand.
