Born with immortal seed

Chapter 37 Magic Genius
After using the Five Fireballs Divine Technique to kill the Ghost Spirit Sect disciples, Bai Zichen developed a strong interest in the Fireball Technique.

Among the basic five elements spells that can be learned during the Qi Refining stage, the Fireball spell has the strongest destructive power.

However, it has a small coverage area and moves slowly. It is very good at bullying stationary targets that cannot move, but it has many limitations in actual use.

No cultivator would be foolish enough to stand still and take the fireball head-on.

After generating his divine consciousness, Bai Zichen improved several commonly used spells by combining them with the notes of his predecessors.

This is usually the kind of work that Foundation Establishment cultivators would begin to do.

Firstly, it extends lifespan, giving one relatively ample time to study magic;

Secondly, only with the cooperation of divine sense can spells be disassembled and reassembled.

Otherwise, only those one in ten thousand magical geniuses could do this based solely on their intuition.

This improved version of the fireball technique was named Fire Thunder Pearl by Bai Zichen.

It consumes twice the mana of a normal fireball spell and can release more than ten fireballs at the same time.

Upon seeing the sky full of fiery pearls, Chen Xiu remained calm. He patted the bracelet on his wrist, and a golden light shield protected his entire body.

At the same time, he stepped back, avoiding half of the fire orbs, while the remaining fire and lightning orbs only caused a ripple when they struck the light shield.

"My Golden Sun Bracelet is a top-grade magic artifact, and it doesn't consume much magic power even when activated. As long as you can't break through this shield, I'm already invincible!"

Seeing that the Fire Thunder Pearl had failed to break through the golden light barrier, Chen Xiu relaxed and immediately began casting three spells in succession.

To draw a line in the sand and imprison oneself!

Entangled with vegetation!

Rockfall Technique!
Suddenly, vines began to grow wildly from beneath Bai Zichen's feet, their roots as thick as his forearm wrapping around his legs.

At the same time, a circle of earthen walls appeared out of nowhere, trapping him inside and greatly reducing his space to dodge.

Three more flying stones, accompanied by a whistling sound, were hurtling towards his head in the distance.

"Such a fast casting speed... Even without that protective magic artifact, he would be a formidable opponent!"

Before going on stage, Bai Zichen had observed his opponent. This Chen was a Qi cultivator at the fifth level, possessed two superior magic artifacts, and his red robe was covered in spiritual light, indicating that it was not an ordinary item either.

In contrast, Bai Zichen hadn't had time to purchase anything and was empty-handed, without even a single magical artifact, which put him at a great disadvantage.

He relied on his divine sense and his higher level of cultivation.

However, Chen Xiu clearly has a special talent for casting spells, and he can almost instantly cast basic five-element spells.

Moreover, they are not rigid cultivators who are inflexible and only know how to copy spells.

"Drawing a Circle on the Ground to Create a Prison" was originally an earth-based protective spell that generates a solid earthen wall centered on the target, providing excellent defense.

But Chen Xiu had a different idea and changed his approach, which resulted in a perfect binding spell.

If he were off the field, Bai Zichen might have applauded Chen Xiu's ingenious idea, but now that he was on the stage, he felt very troubled.

The fire and thunder pearls struck the vines, only managing to sever half of them and ignite a few sparks. However, the vines continued to grow, numbering far more than ten or twenty, making it impossible to destroy them all in time.

Bai Zichen secretly lamented his misfortune. If only he had a flying sword right now, he could easily cut the vines with its power.

He could only push his divine sense to its limit, and the speed of the flying stones that were originally rushing towards him suddenly decreased in his eyes.

With a nimble leap, he dodged two flying stones. Bai Zichen used his wooden puppet technique on the remaining one, creating a wooden figure in the path of the flying stone.

Using his body to block the flying stone, with a muffled thud, the wooden figure's chest was blasted to pieces, and the flying stone, having exhausted its force, fell to the ground.

"Hmph! Even if it means going back to recuperate for two months, we must capture this person. Otherwise, if the two clans reach an agreement, the cultivators of my Chen family will have even less face in front of the Bai family!"

Seeing that Bai Zichen had dodged his triumphant series of spells, Chen Xiu simply sat down cross-legged and focused intently on wielding the small jade knife in his hand.

With the Golden Sun Bracelet protecting him and his opponent trapped in place by his two spells, he wouldn't be able to break through his defenses in at most ten breaths.

"This is bad... Bai Zichen is going to lose, hiss..."

Bai Wei's arm was simply bandaged by the doctor, which relieved the pain considerably, and his attention returned to the ring.

Bai Qiguang and the others glared at him angrily. How could someone curse their own brothers before the outcome of a battle was even decided?

"This is indeed not a good sign..."

Bai Lingyu moved lightly, arriving at the sidelines at some unknown time, her bright eyes sparkling with a strange light.

"This jade dagger seems to be a top-grade magic weapon. Judging from the serious look on the face of the young man from the Chen family, it must be his trump card. Although Brother Chen's cultivation level is one level higher than his opponent's, it is not a qualitative difference. Right now, he is overwhelmed by several spells and probably cannot withstand this wave of attacks."

Bai Ling's calm and collected demeanor greatly diminished the confidence of the Bai family members.

Everyone knows that Bai Zichen and Bai Ling are the only two in the Bai family who have the best chance of reaching the Foundation Establishment stage in the next generation.

Since Bai Ling has made this judgment, the situation on the arena is indeed very unfavorable.

"At the fifth level of Qi Refining, activating a top-grade magic weapon and a high-grade magic weapon, after a battle, how much magic power will still be left in my dantian... After Bai Zichen is defeated, I'll go on stage and unleash a Taiyin Water Thunder to catch him off guard. As long as the victory is decisive, few people will care about details like the Chen family youth already suffering significant magic power loss..."

Bai Ling thought to herself, Chen Xiu's combination spell was indeed troublesome, but with the support of two magical artifacts, one for offense and one for defense, she was fully confident of victory.

"It's strange, Bai Zichen has a high-grade magic talent, so it makes sense that he can improve magic at this stage... But Chen Xiu was someone we never saw during our journey to the Inheritance Stone Tablet, yet he can instantly cast combination spells. Could he also have a high-grade talent?"

……

Bai Zichen, standing on the arena facing Chen Xiu, felt far more pressure than the clansmen below.

As Chen Xiu poured his magic power into it, the jade knife hovered in mid-air. A bright light shone from the hilt and moved forward, now reaching halfway down the blade.

Even without knowing the rank of the Jade Dagger, Bai Zichen knew from the waves of magical power it was constantly accumulating that he could not possibly catch it empty-handed.

"Then, we have no choice but to take the risk..."

Bai Zichen harbored resentment in his heart, and immediately began preparing his own magical artifacts after the event ended.

If he had one or two useful magical artifacts, he wouldn't have been forced into such an embarrassing situation by Chen Xiu.

"Wealth can move mountains... As long as the treasure is strong enough, fighting against opponents of higher levels is commonplace. The old saying is truly true!"

Bai Zichen bit his tongue hard, and a piercing pain shot through him. At the same time, he focused all his energy on visualizing the scene of the furnace of heaven and earth in his sea of ​​consciousness, which was instantly torn apart.

The instant the visualized image shattered, Bai Zichen's divine sense expanded to its peak. He instinctively gathered all his divine sense into a single point, imagining it transforming into a sharp cone, and forcefully charged towards Chen Xiu.

Suddenly, everything went black, and he fell to the ground.
