Beginning to practice immortality as a refugee

Chapter 488 Secret Loss

Chapter 488 Secret Loss
At this time, the sea monster's two vertical pupils stared fiercely forward, full of bloodthirsty and cruel intent.

I clearly know that its real body is still under the Hundred Trees Cave.

The cultivators only watched through the Dongming Mirror, but many of them still couldn't help but feel cold all over their bodies.

Lu Ye also took a breath of cold air.

The Temple of Evil God is indeed weird. Prince Honghe's original body has actually cultivated into this weird thing.

I really don't know what kind of thing his father, the palace master, has turned himself into.

He also noticed that among the eight geniuses, only Prince Hong and Yin Yiji were unarmed and disdained to use spiritual weapons.

But this does not mean that the two of them do not have spiritual weapons. If they were to fight with spiritual weapons, their combat power would soar.

However, on the Ladder of Inquiry, Prince Hong and Yin Yiji are tied for first place. Judging from their ability to quickly kill their opponents, in terms of real combat power, they are probably much better than the genius from the Void Valley.

Who made this guy so weird? He is a sea monster that grew up drinking the evil god's blood and spiritual spring.

The Honghe Prince sea monster licked its tongue, and its huge body squirmed for a while, and soon turned back into human form.

But he had a spiral horn in the middle of his forehead, narrow yellow pupils in his eyes, scales on both sides of his cheeks, and he tilted his head to look at the ceiling of the cave with a puzzled look, as if asking why the next battle had not started yet?
Qingyangzi looked unhappy.

As for Futu Island's plan, it didn't matter if those golden elixir prisoners were killed. After all, the demon clan had demon elixirs that could be reused, and the human race's golden elixir Buddha cultivators were more special, and they also had relics. Overall, it was not a loss.

Every Nascent Soul prisoner is a "treasure". After death, those Nascent Souls will be sucked away by the formation and transformed into tree infants by the towering trees.

Who would have thought that Prince Honghe would be so disrespectful and actually swallowed up the Nascent Soul!
It must be because he is gifted that he dares to do so. If it were another cultivator, whose Nascent Soul is also a huge spiritual body, wouldn't he be afraid of backlash if he swallowed it so roughly?
In the hole of a hundred trees.

Prince Honghe looked up at the ceiling of the cave, where formation runes were engraved. He knew that his every move was under observation by the outside world.

Sure enough, Qing Yangzi's voice came from inside.

"Friend Hong, don't you need to take a break?"

Prince Honghe laughed grimly.

"Fellow Daoist Qingyang, please quickly transfer me to the next round."

"But I'm just warming up. I can still fight."

off the field.

The Dongming Mirror could clearly hear the two voices, and countless cultivators cursed them as perverts in their hearts.

After fighting for an hour, the opponent was killed with all his might, and the Buddhist physical practitioner, who was the most adept at endurance, could actually fight again.

Seeing that he insisted, Qingyangzi stopped trying to dissuade him and decided in his heart to give this man a hard time.

You will be able to fight again, even against Yuanying strongmen. I don’t believe you won’t be injured. If your Tao foundation is damaged, it will be even worse.

There was darkness in his eyes, but he smiled.

"Okay, since Fellow Daoist Hong insists, let's start the next one."

The central picture of the Dongming Mirror.

Prince Honghe's figure faded into nothingness, and when the scene changed, he had entered a new cell.

Opposite him was a Yuanying prisoner whose body was wrapped in iron chains and stained with blood.

It was this person who had defeated a Nascent Soul challenger before.

When he saw Prince Honghe, he did not say a word. Instead, with the power of his great victory, he shook the iron chain in his hand and smashed it towards Prince Honghe's head.

Prince Honghe shouted excitedly and could not help but transform. His body almost filled the entire cell and pressed towards the Nascent Soul prisoner.

Soon, dust flew and the screen was filled again. The cultivators had gotten used to it and turned to look for other scenes of geniuses fighting.

One after another within half an hour.

Yin Yiji broke the ferocious crocodile Tu Mu's head with his bare hands, but after hesitating for a few seconds, he let his opponent's Nascent Soul be sucked away by the tree formation.

The Void Valley and Futu Island are on good terms, so he can vent his personal anger, but he has to know when to stop.

Shuai Bufan used the Sea Wave Orb and cast a sea mine to kill the Water Purifier Soul-Catcher. The orb sucked in the opponent's Nascent Soul without any hesitation and suppressed it inside the orb.

Jian Qiuyi used sword against sword and broke the Bone Sword Demon's magic bone sword into pieces, cut off the opponent's head, and shot out hundreds of sword qi, blasting the opponent's Nascent Soul into pieces.

The golden halo in the bronze tripod in King Jin's hand tore Grandma Mu into pieces along with her wooden staff, not giving the other party's Nascent Soul any chance to escape. He was worthy of being the genius of a major sect who was famous for his sharp golden attribute attacks.

Prince Long Bing held the dragon-tendon whip, snatched the invincible spear, used the whip as a knife, and cut her body in half. The escaping Yuanying was swallowed by the dragon-shaped jade pendant on her body.

Nangong Xing used the scepter to put out the fire with water, extinguishing the magic of the Flame Priest. Even his body and Nascent Soul were frozen, and they turned into powder with a slight touch.

The colorful flute was played so vividly that the strings of the zither-crazy Jiao Mubao broke, his facial features exploded, and he died with a broken heart.

These people have a tacit understanding.

Except for Yin Yiji who took a bit of time, the other geniuses killed their opponents quickly and swiftly, and subdued or destroyed their Nascent Souls, leaving no chance for Futu Island to condense Tree Infants.

After these seven people passed the level, they all asked Qingyangzi to continue fighting and challenging them.

Qingyangzi did as he was told with a gloomy face.

However, these people were facing tree babies.

Because there were only twenty Yuanying in the A category, which was only enough for the first round of distribution.

The original arrangement of Futu Island, twenty Yuanying to twenty prisoners, was just right, but this time they had to pay back the old capital.

Among the twenty Nascent Soul cultivators who tried to break through, Prince Honghe took the lead, and seven others subsequently entered the second round.

Among the monks in other cells, one unlucky fellow surrendered and was teleported away, while the rest of the Nascent Soul monks were still fighting hard.

Many of those who have reached the Jindan level have not yet finished their challenge.

The cultivators outside the venue focused their attention on the special performance of Prince Honghe in the center of the Dongming Mirror.

Half an hour later.

The past repeats itself.

The chained prisoner who had successfully killed the Nascent Soul challenger fell to the ground headlessly, with the chains on his body shattered into broken iron rings.

Prince Honghe transformed into his true form, swallowed the infant in one gulp, and was savoring it with relish.

This time, without waiting for him to provoke, he glanced sideways at the formation above.

Qingyangzi couldn't bear it any longer, so he waved his hand and moved him away from heaven and earth.

The picture in the center of the Dongming Mirror turned.

Then they saw Prince Hong and being transferred to a tree hole. The tangled tree roots inside parted, and a green humanoid giant slowly walked out.

This is a wide area that is several dozen feet in radius and more than ten feet high. Of course, it is still too cramped for a Nascent Soul cultivator.

The tree baby was several feet tall. In addition to being proficient in wood-related magic, it could also use the fundamental Nascent Soul in its body to call upon the magic it used in its previous life, and it also wielded spiritual weapons.

Apart from its slow reaction, thanks to the blessing of the towering trees, its body is covered with a layer of armor condensed from tree roots, making its skin thick and its flesh and defense amazing.

The two monsters shouted excitedly and collided head-on.

Strictly speaking, both of them belong to the demon family, but one is a sea demon and the other is a wood demon.

Then, the red demonic power and the green demonic power burst out, and the light collided with each other, filling the entire picture.

The practitioners sat on the leaves until the sun set.

Everyone watched as Prince Honghe broke through one level after another.

The giant tree man looked as small as a child compared to his huge body, and was finally torn into pieces.

There was a Nascent Soul about a foot tall inside. It could be seen that the person in front was a female cultivator, but half of the body of the magical infant had been dyed green, and its eyes were dull and lifeless. However, the survival instinct still made this tree infant want to escape.

As a result, he was caught by Prince Hong and had to swallow the food dry.

He repeated this behavior three times!
He had really killed enough Yuanyings before he stopped fighting and teleported out of the cave.

When he came out of the cave, all the evil energy on his body gathered above his head, almost like a black cloud covering the sky!
With his powerful mutated sea monster body, he proved himself to be invincible and able to fight for a long time.

The other geniuses are not bad either.

Yin Yiji was protected by a golden armor and never used any spiritual weapon from beginning to end. He also killed one man and four tree babies. However, he did not go all the way and allowed Futu Island to take back the Nascent Soul and the Tree Babies.

His speed was one hour slower than that of Prince Honghe.

The main thing was Prince Hong He's abnormal body. He was too strong to catch the magic weapon with his bare hands. The evil magic he practiced was very powerful, but he was also bloodthirsty and crazy.

Normal humans cannot compare with these perverted sea creatures.

Shuai Bufan ranked third.

No one knew what kind of Pokémon his Wave Orb was, but it was a giant piece of equipment. He was able to defeat five enemies at once and suppressed one Yuanying and four Tree Infants inside the orb.

It seems that his father, the leader of the Haiyan Sect, gave him a top-grade magic weapon.

Jian Qiuyi was the fourth to come out of seclusion.

He held a sword that was extremely sharp, and there was nothing else in his eyes. He chopped the melons and vegetables and smashed one Yuanying and three tree infants.

It's not that he can't kill, but he knows that his Chaoyang Sword Sect is not one of the five super sects yet, and does not have the support of the divine treasure, so his sword has to be sheathed.

Originally he just wanted to kill two people to vent his anger, but Prince Honghe insisted and asked the geniuses of the four sects to kill four people each, and Futu Island also nodded.

The tall man held up the sky when it fell, and all he had to do was draw his sword without regrets and kill the enemy in front of him.

Therefore, it is enough for him to only break the fourth Yuanying.

The same goes for the other three, Jin Tianwang and Nangong Xing, who are ranked fifth, sixth and seventh respectively.

The "Prince Long Bing" from the King Snake Palace defeated five others alone, so he came out later than the three above.

In terms of actual combat power, he is not inferior to anyone else.

The dragon-shaped jade pendant on her body was very powerful, and it absorbed the one Nascent Soul and the four Tree Infants.

These eight people joined forces to destroy the efforts of several generations of people on Futu Island. Thirty-six Nascent Souls and Tree Infants no longer existed, and some were returned to heaven and earth, or were abducted by Hong Longshuai and his two men.

On the leaves of the platform.

Qingyangzi, Iron Swordsman, Cloud Piercer and Du Wan were so angry that their hands were shaking.

But this was something the master had promised to do, so they had no choice but to do it.

In addition, everyone understood one thing, tacitly, that this was an opportunity for the geniuses of the eight sects to vent their anger.

From then on, the matter of the Ladder of Integrity was put aside.

The rumors spread by other cultivators in the East China Sea became rumors. Even if they were spread, the Four Super Sects and the Four Major Sects could no longer use this matter to attack Futu Island.

Except for eight geniuses who passed the test successfully.

Another five Nascent Soul cultivators and seven Golden Core cultivators passed the level.

They were not as powerful as the other eight men. After killing their opponents, they were teleported out of the Hundred Trees Cave and became spectators.

But the more I looked at the performance of those eight people, the more disappointed I became.

The Jindan cultivators don’t need to worry about the Yuanying masters, as the five Yuanying masters have already thought about how to avoid these eight people.

This is not a question of winning or losing.

But when you are on the court, will the opponent enjoy himself too much and kill himself accidentally?

The bell rang softly.

Qingyangzi stood up from the leaves and saluted towards all directions.

"My fellow Taoists, the second day of the challenge is over!"

"Fifty people go in, twenty people come out, and the winner is no more than half."

"Tomorrow is the final round of the competition."

"My fellow Taoists, you must be tired after watching for a whole day. Come, let's have the banquet..." He made the arrangements.

The twenty winners basically withdrew early as they were preparing for tomorrow's competition.

Many of the cultivators off the field also left.

It's true that I was exhausted from staring at the Dongming Mirror today.

In addition, the information about the Ladder of Inquiry on the island today is too explosive, and many people want to go back. Who doesn’t have a close friend ready to share it?

Lu Ye, Master Wang, and "Master Baicao" also flew away.

Because Master Wang is here.

The three of them did not talk about the Ladder of Integrity, but instead talked about tomorrow's battle.

Master Wang believed that Prince Honghe was so powerful that he would surely be able to crush the enemy, but Master Baicao disagreed.

He said that those Nascent Soul cultivators in Baishu Cave had been imprisoned for a long time and had actually lost their sharpness and ferocity.

Even if he temporarily recovers his strength and has his own spiritual weapon in his possession, it would be good enough if he could display 70% to 80% of his Kung Fu.

Prince Hong He was the first to rush out thanks to his savage physique, but that doesn't mean he can crush other geniuses in the same way.

If a war really breaks out, the situation is not certain.

He was also a little curious.

There will be twenty people tomorrow, including seven Jindan and thirteen Yuanying. The top ten should be among these thirteen people.

If we fight each battle one by one, one day will still not be enough.

I don’t know how Futu Island is arranged.

After all, in addition to the battle time, according to the island’s plan, Cheng Bingyan’s Taoist partner must be selected on the spot.

And after the three-day conference, there must be a big banquet in the evening.

There may not be many hours left in a day for actual fighting, and time is tight and I don’t know how to arrange it.

Lu Ye laughed.

Let the Four Yuanying of Futu Island worry about this kind of things.

Let's go back to the island. I'll host a banquet for you two fellow Taoists today...

late at night.

The prosperity on Futu Island faded away.

Except for the guests who came from afar and stayed on the island, the rest of the monks who came to watch the ceremony had dispersed.

There was silence around the towering tree.

Apart from the occasional weak groaning from the skinned two-winged snake, there was no other sound.

Four figures flew from the ground straight into the treetops.

It was Qingyangzi, who looked tired, Iron Swordsman, Cloud Piercer and Du Wan.

There was a big scandal on the island today. Although it was suppressed, no one dared to talk about it to Futu Island's face.

But if you turn your back on it, you don’t know how to make jokes about Futu Island.

Qing Yangzi was in charge of the central government and could not leave, so he contacted various parties at the dinner and drank a lot of wine.

Iron Swordsman, Cloud Piercer and Du Wan left Futu Island shortly after the Hundred Trees Cave expedition was completed. They contacted their respective channels and tried to find out where the news had been leaked.

The four of them reunited, and Qingyangzi frowned as he listened to the reports from his three junior brothers.

"You said, this information came from many different sources, but it was not released by one company?"

"There are Sihailou and other big businesses, as well as secret gangs that are responsible for robbery and repairs."

"Hiss? Why is this happening?"

The Iron Swordsman was mature and steady. He was the second oldest among the Seven Buddhas. He rubbed his brows and said.

"Overnight, this information...rumors spread."

“It just happened to spread at the opening of today.”

"It seems that there must be a shady hand behind this, selling the goods to multiple companies at the same time."

Cloud Piercer sighed.

"Okay, let's report this to our Master and see what he decides, shall we?"

Du Wan remained silent.

He has now become estranged from Futu Island, and what he is concerned about is how to get the scales of the two-winged snake.

Fortunately, he had thought about it and it was not difficult.

He is one of the Seven Sons of Buddha, and it is normal for him to ask for scale armor to refine a magic weapon. The eldest brother should give him this face.

He originally wanted to tell it today, but today was a big day and it was not appropriate to talk about it, so he decided to tell it tomorrow morning.

The four of them flew up to the treetops, each with their own thoughts.

The layers of treetops naturally parted, revealing a towering cave with a closed door covered with green plants.

This door has not been opened for a hundred years.

Master Futu has cultivated a magic skill that allows him to travel across the East China Sea. He can split off a part of his soul, and although he cannot travel across the East China Sea, he can travel across Futu Island with ease.

This spirit attached itself to a towering tree and could remotely control all events on Futu Island.

The real body of Futu Zhenren has actually been in a state of meditation and seclusion, trying to break through from the Nascent Soul stage to the Spiritual Transformation stage.

This means that the four of them could actually communicate with their master through their spiritual consciousness as long as they were within the range of the towering tree, but they still flew to the front of the cave to show their respect.

Of course, it was a fragment of the master's mind that made the final decision after they asked for instructions.

The Buddha who was in seclusion had no idea what was happening in the outside world.

But the split spirit is enough to represent the will of Buddha.

The four of them came to the front of the cave and knelt down together.

"Disciple greets Master, please invite Master's Dharma body to descend..."

After a while.

A gust of wind blew.

The treetops in front of the four people twisted, and a huge divine consciousness descended, and the treetops twisted into an exquisite tree man.

The outlines of the long hair, facial features, beard, Taoist robe and limbs are rough, but they are very similar to the master's original body.

He slowly opened his eyes, revealing emerald green eyes, and asked.

"What are the results of the investigation?"

Qingyangzi kowtowed hurriedly and told the four people's speculations.

"Master, please make the decision!"

Master Futu was distracted and thought for a moment, and the tree man's body disappeared, leaving only a branch with a line of large words written on the ground.

"Keep checking."

"Can't find it."

"Let him go..."

After the branch retracted into the tree canopy, the four of them looked at each other and let out a breath.

The master did not punish them, but just asked the four of them to try their best to investigate. It didn't matter if they couldn't find anything, they were fortunate.

Du Wanze guessed in his heart that his master had actually become lazy about the sect's affairs before he went into seclusion, and his mind was filled with only the word "Spirit Transformation".

Unless there is a mortal enemy attacking under the towering tree, I'm afraid he won't even open his eyes, right?

"This damn black hand!" Qingyangzi was relieved. He had failed in this mission and thought he would be severely punished, but his master just brushed it off with a few words.

The teacher’s kindness is as great as a mountain.

He looked into the distance and muttered, "If I find him, I will skin him alive!"

"Let's go and keep the two-winged snake company!"

Inside a cave on Shoujie Island, hundreds of miles away.

Lu Ye had just had a great time drinking with Master Wang and Baidao Mowang, and then returned to the cave.

Recently, a two-winged snake was hung on a towering tree, and the Black Water King Snake tribe also became popular.

Just now, Baidao Demon Network in the restaurant ordered a young black water king snake that had not yet developed any intelligence.

How inhumane!
But it tastes really delicious!
Lu Ye savored it for a few moments.

Suddenly he felt something in his storage ring, and with his spiritual power he probed into it and took out a "male and female talisman".

It was the blank rune made by the dead third brother Yin-Yang Dao using the raw materials of the golden branch and pink flowers on the island, and it was used specifically for communication between the two.

A pair of talisman papers corresponded to each other, front and back, and Lu Ye jokingly called them male and female.

Now that Yin-Yang Dao is dead, the only one who has this talisman is Taoist Miyan, who was thrown into the kitchen of Futu Island.

Sure enough, there was a line of ugly crooked words written on the rune.

"Fourth brother...how have you been doing lately?"

"I have learned more than a dozen unique skills here."

"Hehe, those foundation-building cooks still want to hide their private parts in front of me? I can even see the color of their underwear clearly, how can they hide it?"

"Fourth brother, I have hidden half of a real black water king cobra snake soup for you. It is very delicious!"

"This was originally ordered by Prince Honghe himself. I hid half of it for you."

"By the way, don't tell Third Brother...there's not enough soup to go around."

Lu Ye replied with a helpless smile.

"Go to bed! We'll leave the island tomorrow and don't worry about Lao Er's skin."

"Also, you don't have to hide it from your third brother anymore."

Taoist Miyan was puzzled.

"Why?"

"Your third sister is dead..."

"what?"

Silent all night.

The next day.
