Song Zhong had no recollection of the whip. It was a complete stranger to him. However, the faces of the high-tier immortals around him changed. Some even stood up in excitement. One of the Chaos Golden Immortals exclaimed, "Mountain Moving Whip! That's a connate spiritual treasure!"
Song Zhong didn't know what the Mountain Moving Whip was, but he knew that connate spiritual treasures were no joke. They must have been refined by a great emperor with connate materials. Even among Chaos Golden Immortals, there weren't many who possessed something of this level.
Connate spiritual treasures weren't something just anyone could possess and use. They were true spiritual treasures with sentience. Chaos Golden Immortals could barely command them, but immortals lower than that couldn't subdue them, let alone use them.
However, there were some special cases. For example, when two attributes were very similar, the spiritual treasures would feel that they were fated to follow you, even if you weren't as strong as them. Such cases were extremely rare, but not unheard of.
Clearly, this was the case with the dumb kid. As a connate earth spirit, he was naturally very compatible with the Mountain Moving Whip, which was also of the earth attribute. It was normal that this thing was willing to let him use it.
And with a connate spiritual treasure, the dumb kid was almost invincible. Connate spiritual treasures could only be used against them. Other immortal treasures, even ninth-rank ones, were no match at all. A golden immortal with a connate spiritual treasure was almost invincible!
Because such treasures couldn't be used just because one had a backer. It depended on fate. Others, even the children of celestial emperors, couldn't escape this fate. In fact, every celestial emperor would have a few connate spiritual treasures, but before their children became Chaos Golden Immortals, they wouldn't be able to use them unless they were as lucky as the dumb kid.
Therefore, when they saw the Mountain Moving Whip, almost all the immortals were certain that the dumb kid would take first place in this martial exhibition.
Even Xiao Xue, who still had some confidence in Song Zhong, looked worried. "Oh no, oh no, I'm going to lose badly this time!"
Song Zhong ignored her coquettishness and asked directly, "What's the origin of the Mountain-Moving Whip?"
"It's the work of a certain Earth God from ancient times, but he died in the Demon Race's civil war, so there's no more news about this treasure. I didn't expect it to appear now! "Little Snow said bitterly," It really didn't come at the right time! The Mountain-Moving Whip is one of the more powerful Innate Spiritual Treasures. Compared to it, a ninth-grade immortal artifact is just trash! "
"Haiz!" As SongZhong heard that, he also let out a long sigh and began to consider if he should admit defeat.
In fact, even though the Connate Spiritual Treasure Mountain-Moving Whip was very powerful, Song Zhong might not lose to him if he used the copper bell. However, the problem was that the copper bell could be a supreme artifact, the Chaos Bell. If Sky King recognized it, Song Zhong would most likely be killed and robbed.
Therefore, Song Zhong had to consider his own safety first before anything else. Although the matter of the Ice and Fire Twin Lotus Sisters was troublesome, it was not a must for him to obtain first place. After all, SongZhong had already met with the Jade Emperor. Who knows, he might be able to obtain first place if he were to talk to the Fire Lord. As long as he could get his hands on it, the other rewards were nothing to Song Zhong. He didn't care about them at all.
Just when SongZhong was deep in thought, the duel on the stage also came to an end. Sky-Thieving Rat's life was really tough. He didn't die even after suffering such heavy injuries. He didn't even lose consciousness. Before the silly kid rushed over to take care of him, he shouted out that he admitted defeat.
The Fire Lord of the South naturally wouldn't be slow this time. He hurriedly stopped the silly boy. But the silly boy was unwilling to let it go. He shouted, "I can admit defeat, but give me back my meat!"
Although it was only a small piece, it was still an Innate Earth Essence. Even if it couldn't be refined into a complete Innate Spiritual Treasure, it could be mixed into any treasure and instantly improve its quality. It could become a ninth-grade or even a ninth-grade immortal artifact easily.
Therefore, its value was extremely high. Sky-Thieving Rat naturally couldn't bear to spit out the meat that was in his mouth. Therefore, he shouted, "Why? That's my spoils of war. I'm not giving it back! "Anyway, with the Fire Lord of the South here, he wasn't afraid of the silly boy beating him up.
When the silly boy heard this, he immediately became angry and shouted, "You can't not give it back. If you don't give it back, you can't surrender. Let's continue fighting! See if I don't beat you to death, you bastard! "
As he said that, he wanted to go over and attack, but he was stopped by the Fire Lord of the South. As the referee, of course, he couldn't just watch Sky-Thieving Rat be beaten to death.
Sky-Thieving Rat sneered at the silly boy shouting. He wasn't in a hurry and just said lightly, "Referee, I've already admitted defeat. I wonder if I can leave the field?"
"No!" The silly boy immediately said anxiously, "Referee, don't ask him to leave. No matter what, you have to ask him to return my body to me?"
Although Sky-Thieving Rat didn't steal much, it was still a piece of meat from the silly boy. If he took it away, the silly boy's strength would drop a little. Although it wasn't much, it would take at least a few thousand years to make up for it. That was why he was so anxious.
The two of them couldn't come to an agreement and wanted to hear the referee's decision. The Fire Lord of the South frowned and immediately had an idea. He said to Sky-Thieving Rat, "Sky-Thieving Rat, it's not that I want to criticize you, but you've gone too far. Stealing other people's things is fine, but why did you steal their meat too? No, you have to return it! "
"Ah?" Sky-Thieving Rat was anxious when he heard that. He shouted, "Why should I return it? If I return it, wouldn't I have been beaten up for nothing? "
"You're here to compete, not to steal. There are winners and losers in a competition. If you get beaten up, you can only blame yourself for not being skilled enough. You fought your way to the top four and defeated so many people. Didn't they get beaten up for nothing? Why can they get beaten up for nothing, but you can't get beaten up for nothing? "The Fire Lord of the South said righteously.
"But after those people lost, they didn't ask me for anything?" Sky-Thieving Rat said with conviction.
Indeed, in the previous competitions, those who fought with him were all stolen. Moreover, no one wanted them after that.
The Fire Lord of the South didn't care about this. He said indifferently, "That's because they lost. But this time, you lost! I believe that you're a man who can accept defeat. Since you lost, you have to return what you stole! But if you win … "
The Fire Lord of the South didn't continue speaking. He just looked at the silly boy indifferently.
That silly boy was indeed not stupid. When he heard the Fire Lord of the South's words, he immediately said, "If you win me, then the meat is for you!"
"Did you hear that?" The Fire Lord of the South smiled and said, "Can't you act like a bachelor? Show some of the spirit of the Xuanwu Army's chief. Don't let others look down on you! "
"You?" Sky-Thieving Rat was so angry that his beard was curling up. He knew that the Fire Lord of the South was obviously siding with the silly boy. He wanted to use this opportunity to rope him into the Jade Emperor's faction. However, he couldn't say anything because the duel was already over. He had already lost the duel without any dispute. Therefore, no one would say anything if the judge slightly sided with the other side in the subsequent matters. Moreover, the Fire Lord of the South wasn't wrong. Wanting to take away the winner's things after losing? How could that be?
Helpless, Sky-Thieving Rat could only reluctantly take out a piece of yellow soil. As soon as he took it out, that thing automatically flew into the silly boy's body. He sighed comfortably.
"Is this enough?" Sky-Thieving Rat said gloomily.
"Hehe!" The Fire Lord of the South smiled. Just as he was about to say something, the silly boy suddenly shouted, "Aiya, scoundrel, you only gave me half. Hurry up and return the rest to me!" As he spoke, he raised the Mountain Moving Whip in an aggressive manner.
When the Fire Lord of the South heard this, he was infuriated! He thought to himself, 'Isn't this guy too greedy?' Thus, he could not help but fiercely threaten, "Heaven Pilfering Rat, take out everything. If you dare to hide anything, be careful that I don't care anymore and let him beat you to death!"
When the Heaven-Stealing Rat heard this, it didn't dare to hide anymore. It quickly returned the rest to the silly boy, afraid that it would be whipped again.
However, the Fire Lord waited until the silly boy confirmed that there was no problem before announcing the end of the competition and treating the Heaven-Stealing Mouse.
As a result, the official competition ended just like that, bringing boundless shock and awe to the spectators. Whether it was the connate earth spirit or the connate spirit treasure, the Mountain-Moving Whip, both became topics of discussion among the immortals.
Since there was a match every day after the semi-finals, everyone went back home in shock after the match. SongZhong also brought the two ladies back to the place he was staying at.
Xiao Xue and Xiao Cha were people who couldn't sit still. After returning, they immediately went out to play again. Song Zhong was left alone to think about what to do next. At this time, after seeing the connate spirit treasure, the Mountain-Moving Whip, he no longer had any illusions about being first. He planned to find another way to obtain the connate primordial water in the Suet Jade Neck Bottle to treat the Ice and Fire Twin Lotus.
However, just as Song Zhong was deep in thought, the Fire Lord of the South came to visit. Song Zhong was very puzzled. He didn't know why he came at this time, but he didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly welcomed him in.
After the Fire Lord of the South sat down, he asked Song Zhong to send away the irrelevant people. Then, with a light wave of his hand, he placed three things on the table in front of Song Zhong. A small jade bottle, a cloud-patterned jade talisman, and a purple jade token.
Song Zhong was very curious. He couldn't help but ask, "What's this?"
"Haha, didn't you say that you wanted the connate primordial water in the Suet Jade Neck Bottle to treat the Ice and Fire Twin Lotus?" The Fire Lord of the South said with a smile, "It's in the jade bottle!"
"Ah!" Song Zhong was shocked. He couldn't help but exclaim, "But why did you give it to me directly?"
"Haha, that's not all!" The Fire Lord of the South said with a smile, "The cloud-patterned jade talisman is the Natal Spiritual Talisman of the 100 flying fairies who serve you. With it, you are their master. As for the other one, it's the pass to enter the Jade Emperor's Treasury. You can choose three treasures from it. In addition, the Queen Mother promised to give you three 9,000-year-old Saturn Peaches. You can send someone to get them whenever you want! "
"Isn't this the reward for the champion?" Song Zhong couldn't help but be shocked. "I haven't won the championship yet. Why did they give it to me?"
The Fire Lord of the South heaved a long sigh and then smiled bitterly. "Song Zhong, my dear nephew! You saw what happened today. That silly boy is an Innate Earth Spirit. He also has the Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Mountain-Moving Whip. In the entire Immortal Realm, not many Hunyuan Golden Immortals dare to say that they can beat him. Although you are also amazing, I'm afraid you don't have the confidence to win, do you? "
"Not only that?" Song Zhong smiled bitterly. "I'm going to admit defeat!"
"That's it!" The Fire Lord of the South said indifferently. "The Jade Emperor knows that you are in a difficult position. If the Innate Spiritual Treasure, the Mountain-Moving Whip, you won't have a problem winning the championship. But with this item, he wants you to win the championship. His Majesty is a kind man. Naturally, he won't ask you to do something you can't do. Plus, he really likes you, so he might as well give you the things he promised you as a gift. Take it as a sign of good karma! Don't worry, the Jade Emperor said that these things are what you fought for these days. He won't ask you to repay him! "
After listening to the Fire Lord of the South's words, Song Zhong's heart was in turmoil! What was the domineering aura of a king? The Jade Emperor was exactly like that!
Seeing that Song Zhong was a talent, he didn't hesitate to spend money on him. He even thought about Song Zhong in every way, so that he wouldn't feel that he owed him a favor! This was the true bearing of an emperor!
In fact, Song Zhong knew better than anyone that the Jade Emperor was Liu Bei throwing the child to win people's hearts! But when Song Zhong stood in this position, how could he not be moved when faced with the Jade Emperor's unhesitatingly throwing the child away? Unless he was a beast!
In fact, for the Jade Emperor to be so willing to sacrifice his face and spend so much effort to win him over, it was indeed not easy. And it was very sincere. How many Celestial Emperors in the Immortal Realm could do this? Perhaps only the Jade Emperor himself could do it!
Liu Bei really threw the child away. In thousands of years, only the Jade Emperor could do that. Not to mention the loyal Zhao Yun, even a selfish person would be moved on the spot!
This was an open conspiracy! A naked open conspiracy! Even if you knew, you couldn't resist it. Take Song Zhong for example. How could he not be moved by the Jade Emperor's courtesy?
At this time, Song Zhong finally understood why the Jade Emperor was the weakest among the five Celestial Emperors, but he was the leader of the Celestial Emperors. This person's political skills were indeed incomparable to ordinary people!
As the saying goes, a gentleman would die for his friend. At this point, facing the Jade Emperor's sincerity, Song Zhong could no longer suppress the boiling blood in his heart. He directly pushed the item to the Fire Lord of the South and said murderously, "I can't accept this without doing anything. I can't accept this! Help me pass a message to His Majesty. Tell him that this item is temporarily with him. When I win the championship, I will personally take it!
