Although the injury seemed serious, it was only a physical injury. To put it bluntly, it was a cut in his stomach.
After the first round of the competition, there would be five years to recuperate, but after the second round, there would be ten years. Xiao Lingyu had been in the Chaotic Spectrum all this time, so he had 100,000 years to recuperate.
Before he fought with the Master of Heaven Reaching Realm in the market, Xiao Lingyu was prepared to get injured. Naturally, he had prepared a lot of healing elixirs and top-grade medicinal herbs.
In order to be fully prepared, Xiao Lingyu even spent a large sum of Psychic Divine Stones to purchase two Celestial Elixirs. One was used to heal the body, and the other was used to heal the soul.
However, there was no need to waste the Celestial Elixir on his current injury. Xiao Lingyu only used the Body Transformation Technique to slowly recuperate. Anyway, there was still a lot of time.
After more than 10,000 years in the Chaotic Spectrum, Xiao Lingyu's injury had already healed. He used the remaining time to continue studying the Soul Confining Array.
Although he did not use the Soul Confining Array in the fight with Jin Zhi, Xiao Lingyu had to put more effort into treating his weakness.
And Jin Zhi's performance also made Xiao Lingyu realize that even if those top experts did not participate in the competition, it would not be easy for him to get into the top ten of the Master of Heaven Reaching Realm.
To Xiao Lingyu's surprise, before the third round of the competition arrived, two old acquaintances came to find him.
The first to come was Shen Gongbao. He also participated in the competition and had successfully advanced to the third round.
"Brother Xiao's injury should be fine now, right?" Shen Gongbao asked with seeming concern.
"It's nothing serious."
After Xiao Lingyu replied, he narrowed his eyes and said, "Fellow Daoist Shen, your cultivation seems to have improved a lot. Could it be that you have encountered an opportunity?"
Shen Gongbao smiled and said, "It's not an opportunity. I just received a token of appreciation from the Sacred Army."
Xiao Lingyu frowned slightly. After pondering for a moment, he suddenly said, "Fellow Daoist Shen, could it be that …"
At this point, Xiao Lingyu stopped and looked at the door.
At this moment, the woman who had been ordered to serve Xiao Lingyu was standing outside the door.
The Sacred Army had a rule for this tournament. During the tournament, although the participating cultivators could meet each other, there had to be a third party present to prevent collusion. Therefore, even if they were old friends, the door to the secret chamber had to be open.
Shen Gongbao was so shrewd that he naturally understood what Xiao Lingyu meant. He said, "It's a waste not to take the benefits that come to our door. That little girl is clean and her cultivation is at the peak of the Late-stage of Holy God. After having sex with her once, she directly advanced to the Reaching Heaven Realm."
Xiao Lingyu first shook his head, then smiled and said, "I advanced to the Heaven Ascension stage after dual cultivating with you once. I reckon that you were also a virgin before dual cultivating, right?"
Shen Gongbao looked a little embarrassed. He was indeed a virgin before, but after a while, he explained, "It's not that there are no beautiful women who admire me, but I have a high standard. Ordinary women can't enter my eyes at all. Besides, a cultivator's virginity is very precious and can't be broken easily. It should be used at a critical moment. "
Xiao Lingyu directly ignored the first half of Shen Gongbao's words, but the second half was somewhat reasonable. However, how many ordinary cultivators could endure from the beginning of cultivation to the Reaching Heaven Realm?
Although it was said that it should be used at a critical moment, there were too many critical moments for cultivators to cultivate. Not to mention other things, every breakthrough of cultivation was very crucial.
"In my opinion, Fellow Daoist, since you've lost your virginity, why don't you wait until you're about to ascend to the Longevity Realm and find a virgin in the Heavenly Ascension Realm to dual cultivate?" Xiao Lingyu followed.
Shen Gongbao originally planned to do so. However, there were very few women in the Reaching Heaven Realm, and few of them were virgins. Even if there were such women, they might not be interested in him. Secondly, before the competition, King Ming had told him that he must advance to the top ten and wash himself in the Qiongchi Pool. In addition, the Sacred Army had given him a clean and beautiful woman for free, and he could not resist the temptation of the girl, so he used his virginity advantage.
"Even if you use it when you are close to the Longevity Realm, it can only be a little beneficial. That abnormal Longevity Tribulation is not something that can be passed by just one dual cultivation. Even my senior brother Jiang, who has a profound realm, is not 100% sure that he can pass the Longevity Tribulation with the Holy Whip. "
Shen Gongbao waved his hand dismissively, and then said, "By the way, my senior brother also participated in this competition. He won the first two rounds easily, and he didn't use the Holy Whip. He must be one of the top ten. The power of the Holy Whip is something that even the top masters are afraid of. After washing himself this time, his success rate of passing the Longevity Tribulation should be 10% or 20% higher. "
"How many Reaching Heaven Realm masters from the Earth are participating in the competition?" Xiao Lingyu asked.
"Not many, there should only be a dozen or so, and a few have been eliminated. There are probably only five or six who can make it to the final mixed battle."
After Shen Gongbao replied, he transmitted his voice, "I came here this time to inform you. When the mixed battle begins, we have to team up. Because even if we don't team up, others will. As the saying goes, we are outnumbered. We have to be prepared early."
Xiao Lingyu nodded. Although he did not trust Shen Gongbao very much, he felt that this might be the Mahamayuri's idea.
"Then I won't disturb Xiao Daoyou any further. I'll take my leave!"
Shen Gongbao did not dawdle and immediately took his leave. When he walked to the door, he glanced at the woman, then turned back and said, "Brother Xiao, you should enjoy yourself when you need to. Don't think too much. It would be foolish to waste the Sacred Army's good intentions. This girl looks much more beautiful than mine."
Xiao Lingyu just smiled and did not reply. He knew that Shen Gongbao was a greedy cultivator, and he was greedy to the point of being unscrupulous. He was not afraid of offending other masters because of his greed.
Although Shen Gongbao was sometimes hateful, he was a straightforward and carefree person. Of course, he had a powerful master after all, and he also had the support of Earth's masters. As long as he did not go too far, no one would care too much about him.
Shen Gongbao's words before he left made the woman look at Xiao Lingyu tenderly, as if she wanted to melt Xiao Lingyu's steel-like resistance.
"My injuries have not completely healed. It's inconvenient, it's inconvenient."
Xiao Lingyu dejectedly went into the quiet room that he had set up with layers of restrictions, and then hid in the Chaotic Spectrum to cultivate.
Shen Gongbao could accept the Sacred Army's affection and did not mind practicing Dual Cultivation with a girl, but Xiao Lingyu could not. Otherwise, Miaoying and Qing Xuan in the Chaotic Spectrum would definitely skin him alive. Moreover, Xiao Lingyu was not a virgin. It would not be very beneficial for him to practice Dual Cultivation with a girl whose cultivation was similar to his, let alone a girl whose cultivation was much lower than his.
Through Dual Cultivation, Xiao Lingyu could improve his strength by a lot, unless the girl was a virgin in the Heavenly Ascension Realm, or her cultivation was much higher than Xiao Lingyu's. Of course, it would be better if she was a virgin whose cultivation was much higher than Xiao Lingyu's.
After Shen Gongbao left, less than a year had passed in the outside world, and another old friend came to visit.
It was Chi You. Although they had only met once in the Dorsal Fin Clan in the Realm of the Gods, Xiao Lingyu was indebted to Chi You for giving him pointers and giving him pills. This time, Xiao Lingyu naturally received him very warmly.
"Junior greets Senior Chi You," Xiao Lingyu said very politely and respectfully.
"There's no need to be so formal. Now that you are also a Heavenly Ascension Realm master, and you have extraordinary strength, we can address each other as equals."
Chi You put one hand on Xiao Lingyu's shoulder and looked very straightforward and generous. Then, he praised, "Brother Xiao is really a rare genius. In such a short time, you have already reached your current realm. If those so-called top masters who are usually arrogant knew about your progress, they would probably be so ashamed that they would find a mouse hole to hide in."
The two of them sat in the living room, and Chi You continued, "Brother, I have watched your first two matches. In the first match, you fought well, but in the second match, you were just passable."
Xiao Lingyu said sincerely, "Senior … Big Brother Chi You, please give me some pointers."
To be honest, although he had gone through quite a lot of trials and tribulations to get to where he was today and had reached the Heaven Reaching Realm, almost reaching the peak of the God Realm, Xiao Lingyu still felt a little proud to be able to call a legendary figure from Earth his brother.
Compared with Shen Gongbao, Chi You was less scheming and more frank. He said, "When you encounter an opponent like Jin Zhi who attacks from the beginning, what you need to do is not to blindly defend and wait for him to exhaust his strength, but to fight him with strong attacks. If you only defend, you will be injured even if you can defend until the end. However, the opponent can directly admit defeat when he sees that the situation is not good and will not be injured at all. In this way, you will be at a disadvantage. If the opponent attacks head-on, you will not be able to hold on until the end, and you will be defeated before you can even display your skills. "
Xiao Lingyu nodded when he heard that. It was not that he did not have the means to attack his opponent, but he did not want to expose them too early. For example, his Heavenly Eye of Destruction and the Suicide Dagger were both very destructive.
Chi You continued, "I think that even if you reserve your strength, it is built on the premise that you will not be injured, especially in this kind of arena battle where there is very little time to rest. Defeating your opponent with the smallest price is the right way to go. Many times, some experts will be at a disadvantage or even die in a battle because they want to reserve their strength and underestimate their opponent. We cannot be so careless, especially in a battle between experts like this. Brother, you are also a cultivator from Earth. Even if you reveal some treasure that others covet in the battle, who would dare to come looking for trouble with you? Even if they come looking for trouble, we are not people who are afraid of trouble. "
Xiao Lingyu felt that Chi You's words were somewhat reasonable. For example, in the battle with Jin Zhi, if it were not for his Chaotic Divine Infant's powerful defense, it was very likely that he would have been killed in the arena. If that happened, it would be too late to regret that he did not use his full strength.
