A shadow flew over from the observation platform, piercing through the sky and appearing on the golden spear in the blink of an eye.
The golden spear fell into his hand and buzzed.
Taking a step forward, the coiling dragon ornament flashed across his body. The Overlord Spear was straight and held horizontally in front of his right arm.
His body was bathed in golden light, and his figure was fit and strong.
His expression was solemn, and his eyes were like fire.
"Zhang He?" Duanmu Sheng looked down at Zhang He.
Zhang He raised his head and smiled, "How should I address you?"
"His surname is Duanmu, and his given name is Sheng!" Duanmu Sheng said.
"Brother Duanmu, although you are a member of the Scarlet Emperor, I will not give you the position of Palace Head," Zhang He said.
Duanmu Sheng snorted and said, "Do I need you to give way to me? Have a taste of my Overlord Spear! "
Duanmu Sheng moved like a blur as he flew toward them.
The two of them fought fiercely on the battlefield, sometimes to the left and sometimes to the right. Stellar energy scattered in all directions, but it was all absorbed by the mysterious formation and dissipated into the horizon.
Nan Li's northern dojo.
Lu Zhou, Imperial Lord Xuan Pin, the South Li Divine Lord, and the others watched with relish.
The South Li Divine Sovereign nodded and praised, "I remember that a thousand years ago, Hall Head Zhang held onto his position as Hall Head. In today's warm-up battle, Palace Head Zhang is still the same as he was in the past. "
Emperor Xuan Pin said.
"Zhang He is extremely talented and has not fallen behind in his cultivation for the past thousand years. It's reasonable for him to win. "
The South Li Divine Sovereign said, "Great Empyrean Lord, why don't you keep an eye on the spear user?"
Imperial Emperor Xuan Pin observed for a moment and said, "This person's power is domineering and ferocious. He seems to have Devil Qi in his body and is decisive in his attacks. His spear technique was smooth and smooth, as if he had not used his full strength yet. If I want to defeat Zhang He, I still need to use more methods. "
The Southern Li Divine Sovereign looked at Lu Zhou. "What do you think, Pavilion Master Lu?"
Lu Zhou only took a few glances at it before he said indifferently,
"It's hard to tell who's better for now."
Although he was very confident in his disciple, he did not blindly believe in him. A hundred years had passed, and he didn't know what level of cultivation these rascals had reached. The Heavenly Eye Divine Ability couldn't detect them because they had all comprehended a Great Dao.
If the Heavenly Tomes came from the Great Path, then their powers would be of the same origin. In order to maintain balance, it was reasonable that they could not see them.
Southern Li Divine Lord smiled and said, "Why don't you guess who will emerge victorious?"
Monarch Xuan Pin was amused and laughed. He pointed at Zhang He and said, "Of course it's Zhang He."
The Southern Li Divine Lord nodded.
After all, Zhang He was a member of the Mystic Soul Palace. It was very normal for the Thearch to choose his own people. Otherwise, wouldn't it disappoint his subordinates?
"Pavilion Master Lu?" The Southern Li Divine Lord looked at Lu Zhou.
Lu Zhou said, "Neither."
The Imperial Lord Xuan Pin and the Divine Lord Nan Li looked at Lu Zhou in confusion.
Lu Zhou added, "Someone else."
The Southern Li Immortal Sovereign understood and said with a smile, "The Red Deity has obtained two Great Void Seeds. This one is good at spear arts and the other is still unknown. Pavilion Master Lu, do you think it is him?"
Lu Zhou nodded.
Emperor Xuan Pin chimed in, "Someone who caught the eye of Pavilion Master Lu shouldn't be simple. I'll bet on him as well."
Southern Li Immortal Lord:?
Monarch Xuan Pin laughed and said, "Just guessing is meaningless. Why don't we make a bet? "
Southern Li Divine Lord said, "That's fine too. You can't go back on your word after losing."
"When have I ever gone back on my word? If I win, you won't be able to keep the Hundred Flowers Brew to yourself anymore, "Monarch Xuan Pin said with a smile.
"That's easy. If I win, the Emperor will lecture on the Dao at Mount Nanli for ten days."
"Deal," Monarch Xuan Pin said.
The two of them looked at Lu Zhou.
However, Lu Zhou said, "The Hundred Flowers Brew is good, but it's not enough to satisfy me."
"Oh?" The Southern Li Divine Lord said with a smile, "What do you want to bet, Pavilion Master Lu?"
"I heard that Nan Li Mountain has been roasted by the Nan Li True Fire for 10,000 years. That's why the four seasons are like summer," Lu Zhou said.
Something stirred in the Southern Li Divine Lord. He said, "Are you going to bet on the Nan Li True Fire, Pavilion Master Lu?"
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "The Nan Li True Fire will do you more harm than good. Although the four seasons are comfortable, a large amount of Primal Qi will be driven away by the true fire. Perhaps, it'll be a blessing if you take the Nan Li True Fire away. "
The Southern Li Divine Lord was slightly displeased.
No matter what others said, the Nan Li True Fire belonged to Nan Li Mountain, after all. It could not be taken away as it pleased.
He looked at Imperial Lord Xuan Pin.
He hoped that Imperial Lord Xuan Pin would uphold justice and give up on this preposterous idea. Everyone gambled for fun, joked around, and had fun. If they really gambled so much, it would make everyone unhappy. What was the point?
However, Imperial Lord Xuan Pin said,
"Are you afraid, Southern Li Divine Lord?"
The Southern Li Divine Lord was puzzled.
"I'm not afraid. It's just that the Nan Li True Fire is extremely domineering. It's not something ordinary people can come into contact with. Its influence on Nan Li Mountain's Primal Qi is limited. Moreover, many beasts don't dare to come close. It can be considered the Divine Fire that protects Nan Li Mountain. How can I use it as a wager? "
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "The ignorant are fearless."
"What do you mean by that, Pavilion Master Lu?"
"The Nan Li True Fire was born in the ancient times. When the Heavenly Revelation props up the heavens, the true fire loses its roots when it leaves the ground. The Nan Li True Fire is a rootless fire. Without the replenishment of the earth's power, there's only one way for it to continue existing … "
Lu Zhou paused for a moment before he said, "To absorb your power."
Upon hearing this, the Southern Li Divine Lord rose to his feet. He widened his eyes and said, "Nonsense!"
The battle on the ground was still intense. It was a draw.
On the northern dojo in the horizon, the situation was already turning sour due to the Nan Li True Fire.
Lu Zhou was not angry at all.
If he were in Lu Zhou's shoes, he would be angry as well when someone said that the Divine Fire that protected the mountain was something harmful.
Indeed, this was difficult for him to accept.
Lu Zhou raised his wine cup.
He poured it forward.
The wine hovered in the air and transformed into crystalline water droplets.
Golden Primal Qi swirled around the water droplets like pearls and agates.
Imperial Lord Xuan Pin and the Southern Li Divine Lord looked at Lu Zhou in confusion.
The water droplets shone brilliantly and exuded rich Primal Qi.
The sunlight shone through the water droplets and shone even more brilliantly.
At this moment, the water droplets slowly turned into water vapor and rose into the air before vanishing.
During this process, Lu Zhou merely kept the water droplets hovering in the air. He did not do anything else. He allowed the water droplets to be influenced by Nan Li Mountain's Qi field.
The water droplets merged with the heavens and earth.
"How … how's this possible?"
The Southern Li Divine Lord opened his palm. He shuddered slightly as he looked at the veins on his palm.
He would not believe it if someone else tried it.
He wanted to try it himself.
A ball of Primal Qi hovered above his palm. The green Primal Qi rose into the air as the Formation spun. The Formation on the dojo buzzed and lit up. Like a spider web, it stretched for 100 miles, 1,000 miles …
The meridians of the earth appeared in his field of vision.
A ball of fire appeared in the sky above Nan Li Mountain.
The fire surrounded Nan Li Mountain in a flash.
The Primal Qi in the Southern Li Divine Lord's palm disappeared along with the fire.
It was as though it had been devoured.
The Southern Li Divine Lord had never noticed this. This included the cultivators who lived on Nan Li Mountain.
Nan Li Mountain was a good place to cultivate in peace. The Primal Qi here was dense. Their slow progress in cultivation was due to their innate talents. Nobody had attributed the problem to Nan Li Mountain.
The Southern Li Divine Lord could not accept this.
Lu Zhou said, "This phenomenon is more obvious when it's in contact with the ground. The advantage of Nan Li Mountain lies in the cloud platforms that hover in the air. If it weren't for the cloud platforms, all of you would've been devoured a long time ago. Do you really think that the beasts can be chased away? "
"…" The Southern Li Divine Lord was momentarily at a loss for words.
Realization finally dawned on Imperial Lord Xuan Pin. He said, "I see. You're truly an experienced and knowledgeable person, Pavilion Master Lu. I'm impressed."
The Southern Li Divine Lord regarded Lu Zhou with a complicated gaze. He still could not accept this. He asked, "How do you know about this?"
"It's recorded in the books of the Mysterious Pin Temple and the northern hall," Lu Zhou replied.
Imperial Lord Xuan Pin immediately chimed in, "Pavilion Master Lu, you've been reading a lot in the Mysterious Pin Temple lately. You can say that you're well-read."
The Southern Li Divine Lord frowned and said, "Even if what you say is true, I won't agree to it."
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "I won't force you.
Lu Zhou nodded and said, "I won't force you. In that case, let's continue watching the battle. "
Lu Zhou looked down.
The Southern Li Divine Lord found it difficult to focus on watching the battle. He was in a daze.
The Overlord Spear spun in the air. When it stirred up a tornado, Primal Qi swirled around it with a deafening sound. Only then did the Southern Li Divine Lord regain his senses.
"Imperfect Divine Intervention!"
Duanmu Sheng's figure appeared in the air. He descended from the sky in an inverted manner.
Space and time froze.
The two of them fought fiercely. Their fighting spirit grew.
Zhang He looked up at the sky. Instead of retreating, he advanced. "Rise!"
His voice was like a great bell that could topple mountains and overturn the seas.
Their energies collided, and the space was torn apart.
A powerful Formation maintained the damaged space and devoured the energy from their intense battle.
Heaven and earth were restored.
The two of them separated after colliding. One was above the other.
Still, the victor was not decided.
The two of them stopped and looked at each other.
Duanmu Sheng looked down at Zhang He. He gripped his Overlord Spear tightly and said, "Again!"
Zhang He smiled and said, "Forget it, Brother Duanmu. You can't defeat me. There are rules in the Great Void. The fight for the Hall Master position is not a fight for life. You and I will stop here. I know you didn't use your full strength, but I didn't as well. "
Duanmu Sheng was too competitive. When he heard this, his fighting spirit was greatly reduced.
Zhang He cupped his fists at Duanmu Sheng and said, "Brother Duanmu, let's fight another day. You're my friend for sure."
Duanmu Sheng said, "It's too early to be friends. Our fight is a draw … but that doesn't mean no one can defeat you. "
"Oh?"
A burst of laughter rang from the cloud platform to the south.
"Hall Master Zhang, if you were to fight with your life on the line, you would've been defeated by him a long time ago."
Zhang He looked at the cloud platform to the south, puzzled.
The owner of the laughter was none other than Mingshi Yin.
The laughter stopped and continued, "His trump card is that he's not afraid of death."
"Hm?"
Whoosh!
A figure shot out from the cloud platform at lightning speed.
The figure appeared in the center of the arena in just a blink of an eye. Swoosh! The entire arena was covered in green vines and trees.
"I'll give you 15 minutes to rest. I don't want others to say that I won with an unfair advantage. "
Zhang He's fighting spirit was ignited again. He said with a smile, "Interesting … but I can't rest. If I stop breathing, I'll be weakened. Take this! "
Zhang He charged toward the green vines at lightning speed.
His fingers formed a blade. Crack!
He sliced thousands of trees in half.
