The wind howled. Tens of millions of people gathered on the mountain, but it was silent. Only Pei San's voice could be heard.
Above the white cloud formed by the Power of the Living World.
Teng Qingshan stood on the cloud and looked at Pei San, who was severely injured and covered in blood. Teng Qingshan did not respond to Pei San's words.
"Am I afraid?" Teng Qingshan asked himself, "Am I afraid? I am hesitating now! Why am I hesitating? "
"I don't want to let him go."
"I am worried!"
Teng Qingshan immediately understood what he was thinking. "Yes. I saw the fight between Qin Shiqi and Pei San. Qin Shiqi achieved a breakthrough. He is now stronger than me. However, Qin Shiqi fought with Pei San after his breakthrough. In the end, Qin Shiqi died! Qin Shiqi died. Now, if I fight with Pei San … Unless I run away like Huang Tianqin, I will definitely die! "
"If I die, my parents, Little Jun … and the Xing Yi Sect …"
Teng Qingshan had too many worries in his heart.
Teng Qingshan could not let go of his worries!
*****
Teng Qingshan remained silent and did not respond. Many thoughts flashed through his mind. The citizens of the Land of the Nine Prefectures in the valleys and the mountains around the Green Dragon Hill were talking loudly. They were amazed by Pei San's ferocious aura. At the same time, many people started talking about Teng Qingshan.
"Is Teng Qingshan really afraid? Now, only Teng Qingshan is qualified to fight with Pei San. "
"Why would Teng Qingshan be afraid? He is a true genius who is on par with the four Omnipotent Experts. "
"It's not surprising that he is afraid. How many years has Teng Qingshan been cultivating? How many years has Pei San been cultivating? "
"Sovereign Teng will definitely kill that demon! He will avenge the Buddhist Sect. "Some citizens of Rongzhou and Liangzhou believed in Buddhism. They hated Pei San, who had destroyed the Mani Temple, to the core. They just wanted someone to destroy this devil who had destroyed the Buddhist Sect. However, two of the four most powerful cultivators in the world had already died. Only Teng Qingshan was qualified to fight against Pei San. Their hopes were completely pinned on Teng Qingshan.
"Sovereign Teng will definitely win against this demon."
…
There were all sorts of voices either slandering Teng Qingshan or supporting Teng Qingshan. Teng Qingshan himself did not care. He was only asking his heart.
"Humph." Hongwu, who was standing beside Teng Qingshan, humphed angrily and said, "Pei San is despicable. How dare he say such things to my father in front of so many people? In this way, everyone in the world would know. There are still three years until the battle at the White Horse Lake. During these three years, the people in the world will be looking forward to the battle. "
"If my father doesn't accept the challenge three years later, he will definitely be mocked and cursed by the world. His reputation will be ruined! "Hongwu clenched his fists angrily.
As soon as Hongwu finished speaking, Honglin nodded and said angrily, "Pei San is using the power of the world to suppress you, father."
"Hongwu, Linlin, there is no need to say anything more." Teng Qingshan said calmly.
Suddenly —
A beam of light flew over from the ruins of the Green Dragon Hill. It was the Emptiness Realm Expert of the Ying Family, Ying Haitong, and Qin Shiqi's direct disciple. The moment the green-cloaked young man landed on the ruins, he dashed to the side of Qin Shiqi's corpse.
"Teacher!" The green-cloaked young man knelt down and cried in front of his teacher's corpse.
"Hai Yang." Ying Haitong sighed and said, "Don't be too sad. Your teacher has been pursuing the Dao of the Omnipotent Realm. He has been pursuing it his whole life. However, it is too difficult to become an Omnipotent Realm Expert. It is enough for him to fight a life-and-death battle with an expert like Pei San and achieve a breakthrough during the battle. "
"The dead are gone. Hai Yang, what you need to do is to promote your teacher's Dao of Sword." Ying Haitong said softly.
"Yes."
The green-cloaked young man knelt down and carried the corpse of his teacher, Qin Shiqi. He glared at Pei San, who had already flown away from the Green Dragon Hill towards Li Chao, Pei Xuelian, and the others from the Heavenly God Palace.
…
Teng Qingshan watched as the young man carried Qin Shiqi's corpse and left with Ying Haitong. Teng Qingshan couldn't help but feel sad. "If I die in the battle in three years, "If I die in the battle three years later, Hongwu, Little Jun, and the others will carry my corpse away! However, if I succeed, I will reach the pinnacle of the Omnipotent Realm. "
Struggle.
Teng Qingshan was indeed struggling.
"Why do I have to force myself?" Teng Qingshan suddenly understood. "Pei San is in a hurry to reach the Omnipotent Realm. However, I am different from him. I have a long life ahead of me. I can live for another four hundred years. Even if Pei San doesn't exist, even if I don't fight him, I still have a chance to reach the Omnipotent Realm! "
"Do I have to reach the Omnipotent Realm in three years?"
"If I don't fight in three years, people in the world will say that I, Teng Qingshan, am afraid of Pei San and look down on me. However, why should I care about the people in the world? "
"Do I have to force myself to fight because of what the people in the world say? The difference in strength is too great. Little Jun, Hongwu, Linlin, and my parents … "Teng Qingshan finally understood his true feelings. He couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Once billions of people in the world were talking about you, the invisible pressure would be so great that it could even cause a super powerful expert's mind to be in chaos.
Teng Qingshan understood himself.
"I want to reach the Omnipotent Realm!"
"No. I have to reach the Omnipotent Realm in three years! Therefore, why should I be a stepping stone for Pei San? Qin Shiqi is already four hundred years old. However, I still have more than four hundred years to cultivate the Dao of the Omnipotent Realm. "Teng Qingshan made up his mind.
"Three years. I have three years left!"
"In these three years, I will focus all my energy on the Dao of Martial Arts. If I can fuse the Dao of Life and the Dao of Death in these three years, I will fight against Pei San. If I can't achieve a breakthrough in three years, I will fight against Pei San. If I can't achieve a breakthrough in three years, I will fight against Pei San. If I can't achieve a breakthrough in three years, I will just admit defeat! "
Teng Qingshan gave himself two choices.
Living in this world, living is for oneself, is living for family members. He didn't live for the people in the world.
He didn't have to force himself to death!
"However, Pei San, I won't give up easily." Teng Qingshan knew that he was no match for Pei San, so he would not risk his life to fight him. However, he still had the desire to fight with Pei San three years later. "Three years. If I make a breakthrough in three years, I will be able to fight with you."
…
When Teng Qingshan made up his mind, Pei San had already arrived beside the people of the Heavenly God Palace.
"Father, are you alright?" Pei Xuelian asked worriedly.
"I'm fine." Pei San placed his hand on his chest and said, "Qin Shiqi's short sword didn't pierce my vital organs. I will fully recover after resting for a few months. " Although Teng Qingshan made it sound easy, he still needed a few months to recover even with his recovery ability. This time, his injuries weren't light, especially the terrible injury on his fist.
His fist was pierced by a sharp sword. His bones were broken and his muscles were torn.
It would be very difficult for him to recover completely.
"Teacher, Teng Qingshan didn't react to what you said just now. Could it be …?" Li Chao frowned and asked.
"Hmph."
Pei San said indifferently, "I know Teng Qingshan's personality. What I said now is to let the people of the world know that I am using the words of the people of the world to imperceptibly affect his Spirit. The most terrifying thing in the world is the mouth of a person. The mouth of the public can melt away metal. If an ordinary person were to be criticized by the world, he or she would probably vomit blood and die. "
Of course, Li Chao understood the principle of 'the mouth of the public can melt away metal.'
As long as one lived in the world, he or she would inevitably be affected by the words of others. Even if one's heart was as strong as a rock, he or she would still collapse if he or she was slandered by millions of people.
"With what I said and the invisible pressure from the world, he will definitely be affected by the words of others. Even if Teng Qingshan doesn't want to fight with me, he will still try his best to cultivate for the next three years. Once he achieves a breakthrough, Teng Qingshan will definitely fight with me. If he doesn't achieve a breakthrough, he will rather die than fight with me because of the pressure from the world. I won't be bothered to fight with him. "
"Why?" Pei Xuelian asked confusedly, "Father, why are you not happy that he is fighting with his life?"
"Confidence is based on strength."
Pei San said calmly, "If he doesn't achieve a breakthrough, he is obviously not strong enough. However, he will fight with me because of the invisible pressure from the people around him. This means that his heart is not strong enough. He doesn't even recognize himself and he can't defeat himself. He still wants to pursue the Omnipotent Dao? "
The others nodded when they heard this.
They all understood …
For example, on a battlefield, when thousands of people were charging crazily at the same time, even a calm person would become hot-headed and confused. Then, he would roar loudly and fight with all his might. This was the invisible pressure formed by the crowd.
However, Teng Qingshan was under the pressure of the millions of people in the Land of the Nine Prefectures.
He had to be able to resist the pressure, recognize his heart, and walk his own path. Only in this way could he achieve great things.
However, if he couldn't resist the pressure and wanted to fight with his life on the line in exchange for a reputation after his death, he would at most be considered as someone who wasn't afraid of death. However, he wouldn't be considered a true expert. He wouldn't have the heart of a true expert!
…
The millions of people in the mountain range below were talking about the battle. However, Teng Qingshan was still very calm above the clouds.
"Father, why didn't you respond to Pei San's words?" Honglin was obviously angry.
"Why should I respond?"
Teng Qingshan smiled faintly and said, "This battle is over and Qin Shiqi is dead. We are done watching. It's time to go back. Father, Mother. Get on Little Blue's back. " Teng Qingshan immediately made arrangements. Teng Yongfan, Yuan Lan, his wife, Hongwu, Honglin, and Lei Xiaoru got on the back of the Undying Phoenix.
Teng Qingshan held Li Jun's hand.
"Qingshan, in three years, in the battle, you …" Li Jun couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"I will go," Teng Qingshan said softly.
"Eh?" Li Jun was shocked. She couldn't help but tighten her grip on Teng Qingshan's hand.
Teng Qingshan looked at Li Jun and smiled. His smile was very infectious. Li Jun couldn't help but relax. Teng Qingshan said softly, "Little Jun, don't worry. If I wasn't confident, I wouldn't go and die. "
Li Jun heaved a sigh of relief. However, she immediately became worried and said, "When the time comes, the people in the Land of the Nine Prefectures …" At this moment, Li Jun could hear the endless discussions below.
"Just treat them as floating clouds." Teng Qingshan said with a smile.
Whoosh!
A beam of light pierced through the sky. Teng Qingshan and his family flew in the direction of the Great Yan Mountain.
