Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 692 The Final Battle is About to Begin
The autumn wind is blowing and the mountain tops are getting colder.

Although Master Han Yuan did not shout loudly, his status and cultivation level still brought an inexplicable pressure to people.

There was a moment of silence in the room, everyone waiting quietly for Jiang Zhengchu to speak.

Under the gazes of thousands, Jiang Zhengchu remained calm and said with a neither humble nor arrogant gesture:

"So that the True Lord knows that the Eight Evil Diagrams that were banned by our ancestors were merely banned imitations that had the power to hunt down human souls."

He paused, picked up the scroll in his hand and continued, "As for the Eight Evil Spirit Treasures, which were originally one and the same, they are not among them. Otherwise, the ancient sages would not have passed this treasure down..."

His voice was clear and loud, and Master Han Yuan was silent for a moment.

He naturally knew some of the details. Just as Jiang Zhengchu had said, tens of thousands of years ago, the sages of the human race openly banned all Eight Evil Diagrams. However, for some powerful families and sects, the conditions were naturally relaxed. This was also inevitable...

If he didn't know about these inside stories, he would have taken the treasure the moment Jiang Zhengchu took it out. Why would he wait until Hua Meimei admitted defeat before asking questions...

Little did he know that Jiang Zhengchu was also nervous at the beginning. After all, the Eight Evil Diagram was extremely sensitive. If there was any possibility, he would not want to expose this treasure in such an occasion.

However, Hua Meimei's Taoism is mysterious. If he wants to win, only this treasure can help him.

It is worth mentioning that this treasure was originally kept in the Jiang family's ancestral land. It was only after he saw that Chen Mu's performance exceeded his expectations that he sent his confidant to get it.

Many elders in the clan opposed this, but he overcame all objections and promised to be the leader of the Taoists, and only then did he get the family's consent.

Fortunately, he saw that Master Han Yuan did not attack him immediately. Only then did he feel relieved...

At this time, a voice could be heard from the palace above the clouds. It sounded very noble: "Fellow Daoist Han Yuan, although the Eight Evil Diagrams are quite special, they are still within the scope of spiritual treasures and do not violate the rules of sword fighting..."

As soon as these words came out, Hua Meimei curled her lips and muttered, "How shameless! How can these two be compared?"

There are eight evil beasts in the Eight Evils Picture. Each beast is as powerful as a Nascent Soul demon. Moreover, because they are soul bodies, they are extremely brave and have unique magical powers, making them extremely difficult to deal with.

Ordinary spiritual treasures can only increase a cultivator's combat power by 50% at best. How can they compare to the Eight Evil Diagrams?

"presumptuous!"

The person who spoke shouted angrily, and the sky trembled immediately, and a powerful pressure quickly enveloped it.

Not to mention Hua Meimei, even the thousands of cultivators outside had their brows furrowed and were almost unable to breathe.

Just when Hua Meimei's face turned red with embarrassment, there was another sound coming from the palace in the clouds. Although it was not clear, everyone seemed to see a scene of a five-foot-tall old man jumping up and down and cursing.

"I'm scolding you, the Jiang family, for being shameless. You're using the Spiritual Transformation Realm to pressure the younger generation. No wonder that Jiang brat is so shameless. It turns out he's learned the thick skin from you!"

Everyone was terrified, admiring the fearlessness of the Demon Land Ancestor, and also secretly looking forward to the response of Master Jiang.

But what everyone didn't expect was that after the curse, there was no movement from the Cloud Palace. It turned out that the spiritual power was locked up by other True Lords and covered up.

It was not until two quarters of an hour later that the Demon Land Patriarch hummed softly and passed on the message: "Come down, little flower boy."

Hua Meimei then walked down the platform indignantly, but she kept shaking her head and muttering as she walked.

Because their minds were confused for a moment, they couldn't hear clearly. They only vaguely heard words like "It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge."

Everyone shook their heads and laughed. They had never expected that a demon cultivator could call himself a gentleman...

"The winner is Jiang Zhengchu of the Runan Jiang clan."

After a slight nod from Han Yuan Zhenjun, he slowly announced. Hearing this, Jiang Zhengchu was delighted. Although his victory in this battle was controversial, the outcome was good.

And with the Eight Evil Diagrams in his hand, he believed that neither Li Jianyi, Tao Xianxu nor Chen Mu were his match.

"The leader of the Dao, the best in this world..."

He murmured to himself, who would have thought at the beginning that the person with the best chance of winning would be him, Jiang Zhengchu?
More importantly, he could use this to seek to kill Chen Mu...

Thinking of this, his eyes turned cold and he turned to where Chen Mu was, but happened to see Chen Mu also staring at him.

He smiled slightly and nodded, but the coldness in his eyes remained unchanged, making the friendly gesture seem full of murderous intent...

"The top four will be decided, and in ten days, the champion will be decided!"

As soon as Master Han Yuan finished speaking, accompanied by the echo of the bell, he turned around and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Thousands of monks were also doing their own things as the sun was setting, causing the mountaintop to be noisy for a while.

In this atmosphere, Chen Mu and others lost the desire to talk. After saying a few words, they dispersed.

However, Hua Meimei followed, looking regretful, and sighed, "Brother Chen, I wanted to vent your anger, but I didn't expect that Jiang Zhengchu would become more arrogant..."

Chen Mu's expression remained unchanged as he said softly, "It's okay. The grudge between me and this person should be settled by me myself."

Hua Meimei blinked and asked softly, "That kid has the Eight Evil Diagrams in his palm. Do you really have a way to deal with it?"

Chen Mu remained silent, but his eyes showed his confidence.

Hua Meimei wanted to ask more, but she knew she couldn't disturb Chen Mu's mind, so she forced herself to hold back and nodded, "As long as you have confidence, you must teach Jiang's son a lesson!"

After saying this, he shook his head and muttered, "I've been hunting geese all day, and now I've been pecked in the eye by a goose... I've always been the one bullying others by taking advantage of my power, but now I'm being bullied by someone else. Damn it, this is so infuriating..."

……

Ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

In the early morning, the sun was shining brightly. It had rained yesterday. As the saying goes, every autumn rain brings a chill. So although the sun was shining brightly today, there was still a chill around it.

However, a little bit of cold or heat is nothing to the group of immortal cultivators. They came to the high platform on the top of the mountain early and waited quietly for today's sword fighting event.

Chen Mu and the other three stood in four directions, also waiting intently.

In fact, ever since Tao Xianxu defeated Jidu with great strength and Jiang Zhengchu took out the Eight Evil Diagrams, the voices of the four of them winning the championship were almost the same.

But who will take the top spot in the end depends on the results of today's draw.

Take Li Jianyi for example, he entered Taoism with his killing sword, no matter how many kinds of Taoist magic his opponent used, he would kill them with just one sword.

But if you encounter Jiang Zhengchu's Eight Evil Diagrams, as long as you can't cut off the spiritual power of the Eight Evil Diagrams, the ferocious beasts inside will continue to come and harass you.

By then, even if he was born a sword immortal, it would be difficult for him to break out of the encirclement...

But looking at Tao Xianxu, he hopes to meet Jiang Zhengchu. After all, his "black sky and white earth" Taoist magic is not afraid of melee. In fact, the more opponents he has, the more potential he can unleash.

As for what Chen Mu was thinking, it was nothing special. He naturally wanted to face Jiang Zhengchu...
