"We've never been arrogant. It's just that every time someone bumps into our feet or sticks out their face to ask us to hit them. Some people even rush to give us hundreds of thousands of kilograms of Source energy." Li Heishui smiled brightly.
The grand elder's face darkened. Wasn't this pointing at the monk and calling him bald? He'd hit his sore spot. Last time, he'd jumped into the pit himself and his face had turned green. He still wanted to vomit blood now.
"Hei brat, don't be so arrogant. Be careful or you'll die in front of the stone," Li Yishui said sinisterly.
"With Senior Li here, I don't think I'll lose. This has become a rule. It's been like this for a few times. Haha …" Li Heishui laughed.
"Senior Li, don't lower yourself to the same level as an ignorant brat. Don't worry, they'll suffer in a bit." A young man from an ancient Genesis technique family sneered.
Li Heishui mocked, "Is there a place for you to speak? We're competing with people of your grandfather's generation. As for you … go away."
"You …" The young man's face turned red.
Wu Ziming, who was behind Li Yishui, gnashed his teeth. "Too arrogant. I'll watch you fall from the clouds!"
He and Li Chongtian were definitely the victims. They'd lost thousands of kilograms of Source energy and had lost a lot of face.
"Am I wrong? We're competing with his grandfather. Why is a junior like him interfering? He doesn't have the right to act superior in front of us. If he wants to be high and mighty, he'll have to learn Genesis techniques for another twenty years."
"Good, good, good!" The young men from the ancient Genesis technique families stormed off. They'd only humiliate themselves if they kept talking.
The Genesis technique showdown hadn't even started, but the smell of gunpowder was already strong. If they could fight, it would be a life and death battle.
The old men watching from the side narrowed their eyes. It would be a fierce battle today. Both sides were so confident. Something shocking was likely going to happen.
Among these people, there were super antiques who'd reached the end of their lifespans, grand elders of sacred grounds, and overlords of the Demon Race. All of them had amazing backgrounds.
On the other side were the Saints of the Eastern Wilderness' younger generation. The Dao Yi Holy Land's young Taoist priest, Jin Chixiao, the Jade Lake Saintess, Xu Heng, and Yao Yuekong were all paying close attention.
A grandmaster level Genesis technique duel was rarely seen even in a hundred years. What's more, there was an astonishing 1.5 million kilograms of Genesis at stake. It had been several thousand years since such a grand bet had occurred.
An old man from an ancient Genesis technique clan opened his mouth and said, "Young friend, let's begin."
Ye Fan's heart trembled. He felt a trace of danger. He turned to Li Heishui and said, "You can follow me, but don't get too close."
"Could it be that this old man really dares to kill in public?" Li Heishui was shocked.
"You don't have to worry about it. Just watch from the side," Ye Fan instructed.
The Blood Tears Jade Bamboo was spotlessly white, sparkling and translucent. As the cool breeze blew, it rustled and the jade leaves fluttered like blood tears falling down.
The bamboo forest was extremely dense, blocking the sun. However, this place wasn't gloomy at all, instead shining brilliantly.
Ye Fan stepped forward and calmly faced the four old men. He did not even glance at the youngsters. "May I know which elder wants to spar with me?"
"Let this old man do it." It was the old man who had just spoken. He came from the Nangong clan and was known as a Genesis technique grandmaster ten years ago. His name was Nangong Qi.
After learning his identity, Ye Fan calmly said, "Elder Nangong, how do we set the rules?"
"If you win, in addition to the 1.5 million kilograms of Genesis, you will also get a rare treasure from the other party," Nangong Qi said with a smile.
"Good, that's exactly what I want!" Ye Fan nodded.
"I'm not finished yet." The old man shook his head.
"Oh, what else does elder want to say?" Ye Fan asked.
"1.5 million kilograms of Genesis is not a small number. It is too hasty to bet on a single stone, and it will not reflect the brilliance of the Genesis technique duel. I think everyone can choose three stones. How about it?"
"Alright, I agree!" Ye Fan nodded. Humans could make mistakes, and so could horses. This would be safer for both parties, allowing them to display their true strength.
"Then let's choose the stones." After speaking, Nangong Qi led the way into the bamboo forest.
The heaven stone garden was filled with noise. The older generation and Chosen level elites all followed to see how they would choose the stones.
Ye Fan slowly paced around the Bloodtears Jade Bamboo, observing the strange stones. He was not in a hurry to make a move, and needed to walk around as a whole.
In the heaven stone garden, there were many strange stones with sky-high prices. Every one of them was extraordinary and astonishing. As for their prices, they would similarly make one shrink back.
In a sunny area with sparse jade bamboo, Ye Fan saw a strange stone that was worth 120 kilograms of pure Genesis.
This stone was very special. It was spherical, perfectly round, and had a diameter of 1.5 meters. One could feel a trace of warmth when touching it.
"This must have been polished by someone!" Li Heishui asserted. This stone was too regular.
"Little friend, you guessed wrong. This stone was born like this. If you don't believe me, look carefully."
"It's like the sun right now. Every day when the sun shines on it, wisps of essence energy will circulate. Some people speculate that there is a stone embryo inside."
"Back then, many people wanted to cut it open. If not for a Genesis technique Grandmaster rejecting it, the Wavering Light Sacred Land would have done it themselves."
Ye Fan judged that this stone was born like this and not polished by someone.
This stone was called the "Demon Embryo." Some people speculated that there might be a Saint Spirit inside, and it was even more valuable than the Nine Orifice Stone Golem.
This group of old men did not comment much because the Genesis technique Grandmaster had rejected this stone. The Wavering Light Sacred Land was already considering lowering the price.
Ye Fan did not come to a conclusion. He stood there for a long time before leaving and continuing to look at the stones. Suddenly, he felt a dazzling light. A stone in front of him had drawn out the purple light in his eyes.
He strode forward, and when he got close, the purple light in his eyes penetrated the stone. He wanted to see through it completely.
However, at this moment, the stone suddenly shattered, and a scarlet dragon rushed out. It shone brightly and pounced at Ye Fan's chest, trying to penetrate it.
This change shocked everyone. They did not understand what was going on. Only Ye Fan knew that the kind-looking Nangong Qi had set a trap for him.
This strange stone had been tampered with. Inside it was a heterogeneous essence called "Fire Red." Nangong Qi had used a mysterious Genesis technique to turn it into dragon energy. It was easy to mistake it for a God Source.
It would definitely shatter upon contact, and the endless essence energy would turn into a fatal blade!
A battle of Genesis techniques could also kill. At this moment, it was very dangerous. Ye Fan quickly retreated and avoided the attack of the scarlet dragon.
Whoosh!
A streak of golden light rushed over. The little golden fairy opened its mouth in the air and inhaled. The essence of the Fiery Red Origin turned into a streak of divine light and entered its mouth. It smacked its lips in satisfaction. Its big eyes blinked and sparkled brightly.
"Little thing, you have done well!" Li Heishui laughed.
The divine golden fairy did not appreciate it at all. It bared its fangs and claws at him and Ye Fan. It flew away angrily and landed on the shoulder of the little nun in white.
At the side, Ji Ziyue chuckled. She took out a God Source Bean and waved it at it. In the end, the God Silkworm did not have any sense of loyalty and ran over.
The little nun in white pouted unhappily and called out softly. However, the God Silkworm pretended to be deaf and mute because of the God Source Bean.
"Sister Yilin, don't be angry. This little slippery fellow is so playful. You can't watch it at all. Why don't we watch it together?" Ji Ziyue smiled sweetly, and her dimples appeared.
"Xiao Guai, you can't resist the temptation!" The little nun in white was unhappy.
The two girls were together. They had red lips and white teeth, and their big eyes were bright. However, one was pouting, and the other was cunning and intelligent. They could not stop smiling, and it was very eye-catching.
"What is going on?" The people from the Alkaid Stone Square had appeared. A strange stone worth 30,000 kilograms of Genesis energy had shattered. This was their loss.
"Someone's Genesis technique is not good enough and broke the stone. Just get him to compensate," said a young man from an ancient Genesis technique family. He looked at Ye Fan with a mocking expression.
"Damn it, it was clearly you guys who had evil intentions and wanted to kill people. Too despicable and shameless!" Li Heishui cursed.
Another young man from the Genesis technique family mocked, "Are you a newbie? Is this your first day in the Genesis technique profession? Whoever broke it will have to pay for it! "
"Fine, I'll compensate!" Ye Fan stopped Li Heishui.
He looked at Nangong Qi. This old man still had a kind appearance, but he had taken him down a notch. If he had reacted a little slower, he would have died.
The few young men from the Genesis technique family all sneered. They did not hide the mockery in their eyes. This was the first lesson for their opponent.
At this moment, everyone knew that Ye Fan had suffered a loss. They did not expect a Genesis technique duel to be so dangerous. Even if it was choosing a stone, if he was not careful, his opponent could take advantage of it and kill him on the spot.
"A young man who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. When he meets a true Grandmaster, he will immediately know who is better. His realm is too far apart." Li Yishui, the Grand Elder of the Disillusionment Palace, sneered.
"This old man …" Li Heishui frowned and glared at him.
Ye Fan pulled him back and did not let him say anything. He walked a few steps casually and then gently stomped on the ground.
"Boom!"
Screams came from not far away. Two young disciples from the Genesis technique family spat out blood in the dazzling light and were sent flying.
Beside them, a strange stone shattered, and the Mystical Source Essence Qi contained within it all hit their bodies.
"Earth Vein Dragon Transformation Technique!" Nangong Qi's eyes flashed as he stared at Ye Fan.
It was Ye Fan's intention. He had used the Genesis technique to dissolve the strange Essence Qi in the strange stone, turning it into Dragon Qi and giving it color.
"These are all small techniques. I still have a killing technique. If you want to play, I will play with you to the end!" Ye Fan replied calmly.
Everyone was shocked. The Jade Lake Saint Lady, An Miaoyi, Yao Yuekong, Jin Chixiao, Jiang Yifei, and the others could not help but look over.
The older generation people were also surprised. They quietly watched everything.
"Let's cut the stone and see who wins." Nangong Qi turned around and left.
Ye Fan walked into the depths of the bamboo forest. The jade bamboo flashed with white light. He stared at a very special stone and could not move.
"This stone is worth two hundred and fifty thousand pounds of pure Essence Qi!" Li Heishui exclaimed. His face was full of disbelief. This stone could be said to be ridiculously expensive. It was the most expensive stone he had ever seen. It was truly a sky-high price.
"The Immortal Tomb?" Ye Fan was also shocked. This strange stone was called the Immortal Tomb. It was a strange name, but it matched its shape.
The stone was more than two meters tall and shaped like an ancient tomb. Its bottom was three meters in diameter. It was full of the marks of time. It did not look like a stone, but rather an antique.
"This stone really looks like an ancient tomb. If it was thrown into the graveyard, it would be hard to tell it apart." Li Heishui was very surprised.
"Brothers, you have to take a good look. Even if this stone is not the oldest stone in the Alkaid Stone Lane, it is almost there. It is definitely the graveyard's treasure. It is very special." On the side, an old man introduced. His eyes were very fiery as he urged Ye Fan to cut it open.
"This stone is very special. Look at the front. There seems to be some writing on it. I almost bought it with others, but I did not dare to touch it in the end."
Another old man opened his mouth and pointed at the other side of the Immortal Tomb. He wanted to fulfill his long-cherished wish through Ye Fan and find out what this stone was like.
Ye Fan went forward and observed carefully. He was shocked. There were indeed some marks on the front of the Immortal Tomb. They looked like carvings, but also like marks left by nature.
"This is too strange. Could it really be a natural tomb? It looks like a heaven and earth inscription …" Li Heishui was flabbergasted.
It was obvious that the Immortal Tomb was too famous. When Ye Fan stopped here, many old men surrounded him. None of them could calm down.
"In the past, even the Yuan Taoist Master went out of his way to find a strange stone like this. He once said that there are natural tombs in this world that contain priceless immortal treasures."
"That's right. The reason this stone has this name is because it is almost the same as what the Yuan Taoist Master said. That's why it is called the Immortal Tomb."
"Brother Gu, I strongly suggest that this stone is definitely not ordinary. It might really be a heaven-sealed immortal tomb."
…
These old men were even more attentive than Ye Fan. In just a moment, they had told him everything about this stone and even brought up the Yuan Taoist Master from ten thousand years ago.
Ye Fan activated his Divine Instinct. His eyes flickered with purple light as he looked through the stone. Then, he walked around the stone a few times and studied it carefully. His brows furrowed.
"What do you see? Don't tell me there's really an immortal corpse sealed here? If that's the case, not just the Eastern Wilderness, but the Central Plains, Western Desert, Southern Mountains, and Northern Plains will all be in an uproar, "Li Heishui transmitted.
Ye Fan shook his head. "My Divine Instinct has achieved initial success, but it's not the Heavenly Eye. I can't tell what's inside."
Another old man reminded him, "Brother, you have to be careful. If it really is a heaven-made tomb, the Alkaid wouldn't be placed here."
Someone immediately retorted, "Every stone is full of uncertainty. I think this one is worth the gamble."
"So many people have come, including old Genesis technique masters, but didn't they all give up in the end?"
Before Ye Fan could say anything, the group of old men had already started arguing.
He squatted down and touched the marks on the tomb, trying to determine if they were natural characters.
Someone said, "Some old geezers came here and said these marks are like ancient characters. Others said they are blurry runes formed by nature."
Purple light shot out from Ye Fan's eyes again. He stared at those ancient marks without blinking. Then, he used the purple light to penetrate the stone and investigate deeper.
"Little brother Gu Feng, your Genesis technique is indeed superb. Your eyes are like lightning. It's amazing!"
"We haven't seen each other for more than a month. Brother Gu's Genesis technique has improved again."
The Great Xia prince, Yao Yuekong and the others came over and spoke one after another.
Ye Fan raised his head. Purple light flickered in his eyes. He found many Chosen level figures around him, including An Miaoyi and the Great Sage's daughters. He felt guilty in his heart.
Li Heishui patted him and said with a smirk, "Focus!"
