"A million?" When Song Zhong heard this, he was stunned. He couldn't help but exclaim, "So many people are participating in the competition? How long will it take? "
"Haha, they are not here to compete, but to watch. There are only a few hundred people from each level who are participating in the competition. " Lie Yangzi laughed and said, "However, it is really shocking to see so many legendary people gathered together. That is a real grand occasion!"
When he said this, Lie Yangzi's face was filled with longing. It was obvious that he was reliving the grand occasion.
Song Zhong was also moved by his words. He couldn't help but ask, "How long will such a grand occasion last?"
"It depends on the competition. Generally speaking, a formal competition will take a few months. During this period, there will be various gatherings. Therefore, generally speaking, it will take at least a year!" Lie Yangzi laughed and said, "Even so, there are always some people who feel that the time is too short and insist on staying longer. There are even a lot of experts who are still waiting until the next conference! "
"Haha, this is nothing. Anyway, to the Immortals, a hundred years really passes in the blink of an eye!" Song Zhong said with a sigh.
"Isn't that so? I remember that the last time I participated in such a competition, it was like yesterday! "Lie Yangzi said with a sigh.
At this moment, Lie Yangzi suddenly saw someone on a high platform not far away. This immediately attracted his attention. He pulled Song Zhong and pointed at the high platform in the distance. "Do you see that? That is the high platform of Lord Liejian. He is here too!"
When Song Zhong heard this, he quickly looked over. Indeed, he saw a majestic Dharma Appearance sitting on a huge chair. This was a majestic Immortal. He seemed to be middle-aged. His entire body was filled with Sword Essence, as if he was an unsheathed sharp sword.
The disciples under him were more or less like him. Each of them had Sword Qi soaring to the sky. Almost all of them were brilliant Sword Cultivators.
Seeming to have felt Song Zhong's gaze, Lord Cracking Sage turned his sharp eyes and glared at Song Zhong fiercely.
Song Zhong suddenly felt as if two swords were about to stab him. He hurriedly turned his head, not daring to look into the other party's eyes. At the same time, he could not help but exclaim in his heart, 'Is this the strength of a Golden Immortal? Isn't this too abnormal? '
At this moment, the Lord of Fire also noticed this situation and immediately said with dissatisfaction, "Lord Lie Zhen, what do you mean by this? Why did you attack a junior for no reason? "
His voice was so loud that all the immortals within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles could hear him clearly. So, they all put aside their own matters and turned to watch the two big shots compete with each other with curiosity.
Upon hearing this, Lord Skysplitter sneered and said, "If it were me, would he still be able to sit still?"
"But the look in your eyes just now clearly contained supreme magical power. Do you still want to deny it?" The Lord of Fire sneered.
"I was just testing him. I didn't hurt anyone!" Lord Skysplitter said unhurriedly.
"Hmph, even if this is the case, it can only show that you are incompetent. It can't hide your malicious behavior just now!" The Lord of Fire said disdainfully.
Although they were in a public place, the Lord of Fire did not give Lord Skysplitter any face and directly scolded him. It could be seen how bad the relationship between the two people was. However, it was normal to think about it. His own human orthodoxy was about to be destroyed by Lord Skysplitter's people. It would be strange if the Lord of Fire could be on good terms with him!
In the face of the Lord of Fire's provocation, Lord Skysplitter suddenly became angry. He then said murderously, "If I really had bad intentions, I would have destroyed him long ago. With my identity, why would I personally make things difficult for a junior?"
"That's hard to say!" The Lord of Fire said with a smile, "I think you are obviously worried that he is too powerful and will beat your precious disciples until they can't tell north from south. So, you want to kill him secretly, right?"
"Nonsense!" Lord Skysplitter said angrily, "How can my disciples be afraid of him?"
"Not afraid? Haha, that's good! " The Lord of Fire immediately continued, "Then let's gamble according to the old rules of previous years?"
"Cough cough!" After Lord Skysplitter heard it, he immediately coughed and said indifferently, "You and I are both True Lords. How can we gamble like mortals? It's really inappropriate! "
"Bah!" When the Lord of Fire heard this, he was so angry that he scolded on the spot, "Lord Skysplitter, you are also a person with a reputation. Don't you feel embarrassed saying this? The Martial Arts Exhibition is held once in a hundred years. You and I have gambled hundreds of times for this! Last time, you won my Eight Treasured Jade Ruyi. This year, you know that you are going to lose, so you put on a decent face and said that you don't want to gamble anymore? Do you still have any shame? "
Lord Skysplitter was scolded by the Lord of Fire until he couldn't raise his head. However, he knew that he was in the wrong and didn't dare to refute. He could only say angrily, "Let's gamble then, who's afraid of you?"
Lord Skysplitter was also forced into a corner. He knew that if he didn't gamble today, the Lord of Fire would definitely not let him off. When the time came, he would spread it around and he wouldn't be able to raise his head in front of many True Lords. So even if he knew that he was going to lose, he could only pinch his nose and gamble.
When the Lord of Fire heard this, his face eased a little, and then he sneered, "Hmph, that's more like it! In that case, let's make a big bet this year! "
After saying that, the Lord of Fire slammed something on the table and yelled fiercely, "Lord Skysplitter, didn't you ask me to gamble with this thing several times? Today, I will follow your wishes and bet with you on this Red Lotus Hellfire Sword!"
The Red Lotus Hellfire was an abnormal flame that was a specialty of the Hellfire Phoenix in the Phoenix Clan. It was extremely famous in the Immortal World. Generally speaking, only a few Immortals could control it. Although the Lord of Fire's strength was good and he also cultivated the fire attribute Immortal Technique, unfortunately, he still couldn't use the Red Lotus Hellfire.
However, the Lord of Fire once helped the Fire Phoenix Clan tens of thousands of years ago. In order to express his gratitude, a Hunyuan Golden Immortal of the Hellfire Phoenix Clan helped the Lord of Fire upgrade his life source magic weapon, the Roaring Flame Sword, to the Red Lotus Hellfire Sword. This allowed the Lord of Fire to also use the Red Lotus Hellfire.
In fact, with the strength of the Lord of Fire, he could only be ranked around 30th among the 108 True Lords of Zhu Rong Heaven. However, because of the Red Lotus Hellfire Sword, he was able to sit in the eighth position, even above Lord Skysplitter.
As for Lord Skysplitter, as a sword cultivator, his life source flying sword was not as good as a fire cultivator's. Naturally, he was unhappy in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.
It just so happened that tens of thousands of years ago, the Lord of Fire's mortal orthodoxy was destroyed by the Lord of Skysplitter's sect, causing a fault to appear in the Lord of Fire's sect. He was repeatedly frustrated in this martial arts exhibition.
Therefore, Lord Skysplitter began to use provocation to make a bet with the Lord of Fire, and he really won a lot of good things from the Lord of Fire. However, the Lord of Fire did not agree to the Red Lotus Hellfire Sword that he wanted the most, no matter how much he provoked him. After all, this was the weapon that he relied on to make a living. If it was gone, the status of the Lord of Fire would plummet!
However, what Lord Skysplitter did not expect was that the arrival of Song Zhong suddenly gave the Lord of Fire infinite confidence, so much so that he directly took out this Red Lotus Hellfire Sword as a bet. Obviously, he wanted to win back what he had lost to Lord Skysplitter before.
If Song Zhong had not come, Lord Skysplitter would have been eager for the Lord of Fire to do so. His disciples happened to be better than the Lord of Fire, especially at the level of Golden Immortal, where the advantage was even more obvious. But now, as soon as Song Zhong appeared, Lord Skysplitter's heart was uncertain.
So he quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, this is the weapon that you rely on to make a living. I'm embarrassed to win against you! Let's exchange something, shall we? "
"Haha!" When the Lord of Fire heard this, he immediately said happily, "No need to exchange, and don't pretend to be dumb here! Didn't you always persuade me to bet on it? Today, I took it out, so why are you scared? "
"Ahem!" Lord Skysplitter said with a red face, "I just don't want to hurt the harmony between us!"
"Harmony your head, there is no such thing as harmony between you and me!" The Lord of Fire scolded directly, "Don't get close to me!"
Lord Skysplitter's face turned green in an instant. He was so angry that his whole body trembled, but he did not dare to answer. After all, now was not the time to be impulsive. If he really gambled with him, how could he pay for it? That would be the end of the family fortune!
When the Lord of Fire saw that Lord Skysplitter did not dare to speak, he suddenly became spirited and continued to shout, "Lord Skysplitter, you brat, why don't you speak? How did you become a coward now? Back then, you were very arrogant and pointed at my nose and scolded me. If you have the guts, continue to be arrogant for me! "
The Immortals watched from the sidelines, laughing in their hearts. They were all veritable parties. Back then, Lord Skysplitter was aggressive, squeezing the Lord of Fire in front of everyone and forcing him to take out good things to gamble. Then, the Lord of Fire suffered tragedies again and again. Many Immortals secretly complained that Lord Skysplitter was not too kind. It was fine if his own sect bullied the Lord of Fire's sect, but he also took the opportunity to bully the Lord of Fire, which was really too much.
But now, the tables had turned. It was the Lord of Fire who was aggressive, and Lord Skysplitter did not dare to say a word. This made many Immortals feel particularly happy.
It couldn't be helped. Lord Skysplitter was a relatively overbearing person, and his popularity in the Immortal World was not very good, so everyone was happy to see him suffer.
However, Lord Skysplitter's embarrassing situation did not last long because a red cloud floated in the distance, accompanied by bursts of Immortal music. After all the Immortals heard it, they stood up respectfully, bowed their heads and saluted, and no one dared to speak again. Obviously, Zhu Rong Tian's leader, the Lord of Fire, was here!
