Mortals get a golden finger for immortal cultivation every year

Chapter 198 The Silver Dragon Seeking Death

"What is he doing in the Magic Gold Mountains?"

Duan Tianren in the middle of Yuncheng was surprised after hearing the words of Cai Liuying, a beautiful woman from the Crystal Clan.

"I don't know. He must have something he wants to do. I heard that Zhixian appeared in the Magic Gold Mountains, but considering the time he went there, he probably didn't know about it."

Cai Liuping said this and shook his head again.

"Zhixian, this is a good thing. I'm planning to go there. Are you interested?"

When Duan Tianren heard the word "Zhixian", his eyes lit up and he said excitedly.

"Not interested. Do you know who told me that?"

Cai Liupeng shook her head slightly and said meaningfully
"Who?"

Duan Tianren's heart tightened and he asked.

"Fellow Daoist Gu, he is now offering a bounty on Zhixian in the small town outside the Demon Gold Mountains. If you are confident that you can compete with him, you can naturally go there." Cai Liuping, a beautiful woman from the Crystal Clan, said lightly.

"No, I can't beat this madman. Besides, he wants Zhixian probably for the purpose of overcoming the tribulation. I dare not compete with him. If he gets Zhixian and refines it into a substitute puppet, it can at least increase the success rate of overcoming the thunder tribulation by 20 to 30 percent, and his life span can be extended by tens of thousands of years. This is good for the entire Yuncheng. Moreover, with this opportunity, he might be able to break through to the great perfection of the Saint level. There is a slight chance of breaking through that bottleneck. I dare not compete with him." Duan Tianren shook his head and refused without hesitation.

It also extinguished his interest in going to the Magic Gold Mountains to compete for Zhixian.

"It's good that you know where Old Monster Gu is. Who in the entire Yuncheng dares to snatch Zhixian? But getting to know is not an easy task. Old Monster Gu probably doesn't have much hope."

Cai Liuping, a beautiful woman from the Crystal Clan, sighed.

"You mean, that fellow Daoist Zhao will compete with him for Zhixian?"

Duan Tianren said tentatively,
"What nonsense! The Magic Gold Mountains are so vast, even with the help of those Magic Hand Hunters, Old Monster Gu can't enter them himself, so his chances of obtaining Zhixian are naturally low. If he could enter the Magic Gold Mountains, it shouldn't be a problem. But the Magic Gold Mountains simply won't allow him in. Those monsters are no weaker than any Saint-level being, especially with another one like that. Even Senior Weng would be wary. Otherwise, how could he have agreed back then?"

Cai Liuying, a beautiful woman from the Crystal Clan, explained.

"That's true."

After hearing the words of the beautiful Crystal Clan woman Cai Liuying, Duan Tianren nodded in agreement with a relieved look.

"However, how are you and fellow Daoist Zhao doing? When will you become Daoist companions? Your cultivation level is almost surpassing mine now. Once you become Daoist companions, it's probably only a matter of time before you surpass me. Even breaking through to that level is not impossible. After all, he is a disciple of the Great Perfection Patriarch. He also has four Saint-level guardians by his side. It seems that he is highly valued!"

Duan Tianren's expression was a little unnatural, and he said in a complicated manner.

How could he not be attracted to Cai Liuyan, a beautiful woman from the Crystal Clan, after knowing each other for many years? It was a pity that she was overtaken by someone in the Nascent Soul stage.

And Zhao Shuang's identity was not someone he could afford to offend.

"Becoming a Taoist partner is probably impossible. I can only borrow him for cultivation. Moreover, after Guanghan Realm, he will definitely leave Leiming Continent to search for the materials needed by the great master behind him. He won't stay for long. I can't leave the Thirteen Tianyun Clans and go to a small human race!"

Cai Liuping, the beautiful woman from the Crystal Clan, said unhappily.

"Hey, hey, just don't leave. Just don't leave."

Hearing the answer he wanted, Duan Tianren's face flushed and he smiled.

Seeing this, the beautiful woman of the Crystal Clan, Cai Liuping, sighed in her heart and decided not to have any more contact with Duan Tianren in the future.

……

At the same time, after Zhao Shuang was exposed, the way other people looked at him also changed.

But it was limited to the original one on the third floor of the attic, because someone came to cause trouble. More precisely, they wanted to borrow Yue Zong, the famous Demon Hand Hunter.

"You are Yue Zong, come with us!"

The alien who said this had rough skin with green lines on it, but his facial features were very similar to those of ordinary humans.

He wore silver armor covered in blood-red spikes, emitting a faint bloody odor. This alien's gaze was completely blank, as if he were looking at a pile of corpses, devoid of any emotion.

His strength has also reached the top level of the Refined Void Realm, which is why he dares to say this.

Seeing this scene, not only the old man surnamed Yan, who was on good terms with Emperor Yuezong, but also the women in palace dress and other foreign races all looked like they were enjoying the show.
"roll"!
Zhao Shuang's answer was very straightforward, giving them a chance to watch the show.

"who are you?"

The silver-armored alien's expression changed slightly, his gaze fell on Zhao Shuang, and he spoke coldly and rudely.

He had just come in, and no one told him Zhao Shuang's identity. Although both of them were at the peak of the Void Refinement Stage, he didn't care too much about Zhao Shuang.

After all, there is a gap between the peaks of the Void Refinement Stage.

"If you don't want to die, get out. Otherwise, there's no need to enter the Magic Gold Mountains. I'll just see you off here."

Zhao Shuang raised his eyes and glanced at the alien man in silver armor, and said lightly.

There was no anger in his tone, which made the smiles on everyone's faces even more intense.

"Really? Then let me see your magical powers!"

Just as the silver-armored alien man was about to take action, an untimely voice rang out.

"Fighting is prohibited here. If you two wish to spar, please go to the town's designated arena. Otherwise, you will all be disqualified from entering the Magic Gold Mountains."

Following the sound, I saw no one there. It was obviously coming from the fourth floor above.

As for his identity, it was naturally the new deacon.

Seeing that the fun was over, the smiles on the others' faces also disappeared.

At this time, the voice of "Deacon Min" came down from the stairs again: "Except for the eighth and ninth level upper clans, everyone else who wants to apply to enter the Demon Gold Mountains must pass the test. Those who want to enter the mountains may go upstairs now. Only two people can come up at a time!"

The voice was extremely calm, but it immediately caused a commotion among the people gathered there.

After everyone glanced at each other, two people immediately rushed up the stairs, one in front and one behind, and disappeared at the stairwell in the blink of an eye. One of them was in the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm, and the other was in the initial stage of the Void Refinement Realm.

The remaining people who failed to react in time had a trace of regret on their faces.

After all, if you can get the lightning-proof umbrella first, there will naturally be only benefits and no harm.

Perhaps because of the restrictions, no sound was heard from upstairs until the test was over, and then someone came down.

As soon as he came down, everyone's eyes swept over him.

The man's clothes were torn and there seemed to be bloodstains on some places. He looked like he had just fought with something.

"Fellow Daoist Zhu, how did you take the test? Did you get the lightning-proof umbrella?"

One of the aliens he knew asked,

"Passed, passed! But how the test was conducted, Deacon Min has instructed that it must not be disclosed, otherwise the lightning umbrella will be taken back! And regardless of whether you pass or not, anyone who has passed the test must leave this place immediately. I won't say more, I'll be leaving first."

When asked, the man, who looked a little embarrassed, mumbled a few words and hurried downstairs without hesitation.

After hearing this, the foreign man who was asking the question didn't dare to continue pressing the issue.

After another meal, another person came down from the fourth floor dejectedly.

However, the man was not injured, but his face looked grim. He did not stay on the third floor for a moment and went straight downstairs. Obviously, the test had failed.

Seeing this, Zhao Shuang and Xianxian went upstairs. No one dared to stop them or argue with them, and they just gave way.

The silver-armored alien man who had just wanted to fight with Zhao Shuang also had a very ugly expression on his face.

After all, his actions just now were no different from seeking death. Especially since they were about to enter the Demon Gold Mountains, even if he considered himself comparable to the Saint level, he still couldn't guarantee that he could be a match for Zhao Shuang, a disciple of the Great Perfection stage.

Zhao Shuang’s strength and potential can be imagined as he was accepted as a disciple by a great master in the Mahayana stage when he was still in the Void Refinement stage.

In particular, he must have some magical treasure bestowed by the great Mahayana ancestors, or other powerful means and supernatural powers, which are almost beyond his ability to deal with.

At this moment, even his former companions wanted to stay away from him to avoid getting into trouble. Zhao Shuang was simply too powerful.

Just as they were thinking about their own things, Zhao Shuang and Xianxian had already arrived at the fourth floor of the attic and met the new deacon.

At this moment they were in a blue world.

Both the top of the head and the surrounding walls were crystal clear and glowed with a faint blue light.

There was a huge white magic circle under their feet, covering almost all the ground of more than twenty feet. In the center of the magic circle, a person stood there quietly, looking at the two of them.

This was a square-faced man dressed as a Confucian scholar. He held a yellow book in one hand and a light golden array plate in the other. His cultivation level seemed to be at the top level of the Refining Void Realm.

"Hello, fellow Daoist. How do you plan to test it?"

Zhao Shuang smiled.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao, there's no need to test. With your magical powers, you can fight even the Saint-level monsters in the Magic Gold Mountains. There's absolutely no need to test anything."

Deacon Min shook his head and chuckled.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Min."

Hearing this, Zhao Shuang naturally smiled with satisfaction and nodded in thanks.

"Well, this is a lightning-proof umbrella!" As Deacon Min finished speaking, the book in his hand suddenly flashed with silver light, and an object flew out from it and headed straight for Zhao Shuang.

Zhao Shuang grabbed the flying object in the air with one hand, and it was slightly cold.

Looking down, he saw a small light silver umbrella, only a few inches in size, but extremely delicate, with dense runes engraved on the surface.

"Min, I have a few points to remind you, fellow Taoist. The lightning-proof umbrella must recognize its master in front of me to prevent it from being snatched away by others. Moreover, after the umbrella recognizes its master, it will only be effective for one month. If the deadline is exceeded, it will become invalid. In other words, fellow Taoist must come out of the mountains within a month. Otherwise, you will be demonized by the evil spirit in there and become a real monster." Deacon Min said in great detail.

"No problem, Zhao understands. Thank you, fellow Taoist." Zhao Shuang thanked again.

Then, he spat out a small ball of blood, which then turned into blood mist, covering the entire lightning-proof umbrella.

He then chanted an incantation and cast a spell, and spells of different colors rushed out and disappeared into the blood mist.

Suddenly, the silver umbrella expanded rapidly by three feet under his blessing, just like a real small umbrella.

And the rumbling sound of thunder rang out in the blood mist.

Then, the mist condensed and became blood-red runes of different sizes. They spun around the silver umbrella and disappeared into it in a flash.

In an instant, the entire body of the silver umbrella was covered with a layer of blood light, but it quickly dissipated and returned to normal.

The recognition of the master is now complete!

"Fellow Daoist, you are truly amazing. You recognized your master so quickly. This is the first time I've seen that."

After watching Zhao Shuang's "recognition of the master" process, Deacon Min was quite surprised.

"However, this Xianxian girl still needs to be tested, and I hope that Fellow Daoist Zhao can understand."

Deacon Min said something else that made Xianxian, who was originally smiling, speechless.

"Okay, as long as Miss Xianxian is willing, I naturally have no objection."

Zhao Shuang said with a smile.

Hearing this, Xianxian rolled her eyes at Zhao Shuang.
After all, could she possibly disagree?

At this time, Deacon Min did not pay attention to the little movements between the two and continued.

"Miss Xianxian, are you sure you want to take the test?"

"Hmm! I wonder how to test it?"

She nodded her slender head slightly, her face firm and her expression firm.

"It's not difficult. There are two ways to test it. One is to stay in the illusion created by my magic circle for half an hour. The other is to fight directly with my two puppet beasts and defeat them. If you can pass either of these two methods, you will be considered a fairy."

Deacon Min smiled slightly and spoke slowly.

"Junior chooses the first option!"

Xianxian had obviously anticipated this testing method and spoke without hesitation.

"Okay, girl, just take three steps forward."

Seeing this, Deacon Min simply nodded.

Upon hearing this, Xianxian naturally did as she was told and took three steps forward.

And the location is exactly above a huge rune in the ground magic circle.

This was Deacon Min's voice again.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao may leave now. During the test, no one else can watch, and the content cannot be leaked. I hope you will forgive me and not spread it."

"Okay, that's not a problem."

Zhao Shuang nodded and headed towards the stairs.

As he approached the stairs, he felt a familiar wave of restriction coming from behind.

Pretending to take a casual glance, he saw that the magic circle set up on the floor had been activated.

Then, layers of white light appeared out of thin air, submerging Xianxian and Deacon Min, making it impossible to see them at all.

Seeing this, Zhao Shuang withdrew his gaze and went downstairs.

As soon as he went downstairs, the silver-armored alien man came over and handed a jade box to Zhao Shuangdao.

"This is my apology for my previous mistake. I hope you will forgive me."

Being outnumbered, he could only apologize. There was no other way. The Mahayana ancestor behind Zhao Shuang was not someone he could afford to provoke. Even if the other party would not take action personally, Zhao Shuang still had four Saint-level guards, whom he could not deal with either.

At worst, there is also a Saint-level monk in the town. If Zhao Shuang asks, it will most likely be easy to invite him out. How could he seek death?
