I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 26: Poor Ghost Showdown (asking for monthly ticket)

"This mortal-level little fellow is even more powerful than I was back then. He's already mastered four spells at the seventh level of Qi training. There's no trace of elixirs left in his demonic seed, which shows he has excellent comprehension and that he learned these spells on his own. This is truly fascinating."

Xuan Hui couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"What? Four spells?"

Chisongzi was surprised. He had been in the Deacon Hall for decades, and no matter in the outer or inner sect, he had never seen any Qi-cultivating demon spirit below the yellow level who could comprehend more than two spells on his own. Most of them relied on Chengling Pills to learn spells.

Chisongzi looked at Huagu carefully, but for some reason, he could not see through Huagu's demon species at all. He only felt a vast fog.

"Can't see through it? Weird!"

"Not surprising!" Xuan Hui laughed. "This little fellow must have had some fortuitous encounters, just like I did back then. I only mastered three spells during my Qi Refining period, but I was born at the Xuan level, which is why I've reached the peak of the Golden Core stage. It would be a shame if that little fellow couldn't break through to a higher level of talent."

Chisongzi smacked his lips and said, "Looks a bit too timid."

"I'm a coward, too!" Xuan Hui said generously, "Being timid just shows that it's sharp and cautious. That's smart. Unlike the other low-level storm monsters in our sect, they take five or six breaths to react to a question. Without anyone's orders, they don't even know how to dodge spells thrown at them. They're dull and boring!"

As soon as Hua Gu appeared, the atmosphere suddenly became lively.

Someone secretly took out the Demon Spirit Mirror and shone it towards Hua Gu, wanting to see what level of qualifications Hua Gu had, what kind of spell marks were on the demon species, and what level of spells the demon species had.

Xuan Hui waved his sleeves, and all the demon spirit mirrors were suddenly filled with fog, unable to reveal Hua Gu's true condition.

"Playing the cards openly is so boring. Let this little guy give you a little shock!"

The Qigong disciples slapped the Demon Spirit Mirror vigorously and kept blowing on it to wipe it, but they had no idea what was wrong.

In fact, Jiang Yi let Hua Gu out so that he was not afraid of others seeing through him.

It is not uncommon for a demon spirit in the Qi training stage to master four spells. Monks who have the money to buy the Chengling Pill can even allow their demon spirits to master more spells.

"My name is Zhuang Chengxuan, and I've come to ask for your advice!"

A male cultivator in his twenties, at the seventh level of Qi training, jumped onto the stage and took out two longan-sized, crimson demon seeds from his storage bag.

"The spells in these two demon seeds are 'Fire Seal' and 'Fire Chain' respectively. Although they are both low-level fire spells, they come from the same two-headed fire dog and can be used together. They have great growth potential. I originally planned to save money to refine the Chengling Pill for my demon spirit, but now... I have more than enough to use it as a prize."

Zhuang Chengxuan threw the two demon seeds onto the stone platform beside the arena. If he wasn't so poor, he wouldn't be willing to be the first to take action.

If he could win, fifty spirit stones would be a lot for him.

The golden-armored rat demon guarding the stone platform caught the demon seed, sniffed it, and made sure it was correct before letting out a squeak.

Zhuang Chengxuan slapped the demon spirit bag, and a colorful rooster that had reached the eighth level of Qi training appeared on the ring. Its red crown was as tall as fire, its eyes were bright, and it flapped its wings and crowed loudly.

Cack!
The scorching fire aura rushed towards him, and Jiang Yi tilted his head and frowned.

The Blazing Golden Rooster commonly has two attributes, gold and fire. During the Qi training period, the most common awakenings are 'Fire Blade' or 'Gold Blade'. It is also possible to awaken a rare spell 'Breaking Roar', which comes with a soul attack.

Jiang Yi does not have the Demon Spirit Detector, and his Sky Eye Technique cannot see through the conditions of the contracted demon spirits in the same realm.

But Shen Puning talked a lot with Jiang Yi this month, which benefited her a lot. She knew that the state of the demon spirit would be manifested in subtle details, and she could identify it by careful observation and comparison.

This is why Shen Puning could see through Hua Gu and Wan Li's situation at a glance.

Jiang Yi patted Hua Gu in his arms to comfort her. His consciousness and eyes quickly swept over the Blazing Golden Rooster, recalling the record of it in the "Demon Spirit Atlas".

The feathers of this chicken are a mixture of gold and red, with the red being more prominent than the gold. The longest tail feathers are also red, indicating that it is of the fire element.

If it weren't for the fact that the fire element can restrain the storm demon, I'm afraid this person wouldn't have come on the field so easily.

The Blazing Golden Rooster that has mastered the "Breaking Roar" skill will have special rune-like patterns on the inside of the fleshy skirt on its neck, but this rooster does not have them.

Jiang Yi lowered his eyes and smiled faintly, "Hua Gu, it's your turn."

Hua Gu still clung tightly to Jiang Yi's clothes, extremely nervous and frightened. Jiang Yi, understanding her thoughts, consoled her, "Don't worry, even if you lose, we'll definitely be the winners in the end!"

Luo Jun, the disciple in charge of the martial arts arena, arrived late carrying a gong. He pushed through the crowd and walked to the bottom of the arena. Seeing that someone had already gone on stage, he looked at Jiang Yi and waited for her to stand up.

Jiang Yi sat there yawning, and Luo Jun pouted, "The first round of the ring defense battle begins!"

As soon as the gong sounded, Zhuang Chengxuan on the ring immediately jumped back three steps and retreated to the corner of the ring. He held a yellow talisman in his hand and ordered the Blazing Golden Rooster to shoot a fire blade at Hua Gu.

Cackling!

The flaming golden rooster flapped its wings, and two crescent-shaped blades formed by flames appeared out of thin air, flying left and right, encircling and killing Hua Gu.

Hua Gu's body suddenly shrank and she immediately flew upwards.

The fire blade hit the protective barrier at the edge of the ring. A muffled sound came from above. Hua Gu then realized that the edge of the ring's protective barrier was high, and it was impossible to avoid the attack range of the Blazing Golden Rooster's fire blade.

Cackling!

As the new fire blade approached, Hua Gu plucked up her courage, turned around and sent two wind blades towards the blazing golden rooster below.

The crescent-shaped light blue wind blade hissed and collided with the blazing golden rooster's fire blade in mid-air.

Sparks exploded, the two spells were equally powerful, both at the skilled level.

"A wind-type Storm Monster, whose initial spell is Wind Blade, is stronger than a water-type Storm Monster whose initial spells are Water Arrow or Sweet Rain. Not bad!"

There were people praising him below the stage, but after a while, everyone frowned.

Jiang Yi sat on one side of the ring, with no intention of taking action himself. Zhuang Chengxuan huddled on the other side of the ring, holding a golden armor talisman in his hand, and also had no intention of taking action.

There was only a chicken and a cloud in the field, one clucking and the other whirring, the fire blade and the wind blade shot at each other, sparks flew everywhere, and the explosion effect was good, but no one could hurt anyone, and all the attacks were ineffective.

Maybe it’s just the beginning, not sure, let’s wait and see!
After a cup of tea... there was still a clucking and whirring sound in the field. It was running and being chased, but it couldn't fly away even if it had wings.

Everyone looked constipated, "Isn't this too boring?"

"I guess Zhuang Chengxuan wants to win this match at the lowest cost. After all, the Blazing Golden Rooster restrains the Storm Demon. As long as one of the flaming blades hits the Storm Demon, the fight will be over."

"I think it's difficult. Haven't you noticed that this Storm Monster is extremely fast in its evasion? It activates wind blades as it moves, and each time it manages to intercept the fire blades just within a safe range without missing a single time. It's quite capable indeed."

Hua Gu was forced to jump into the river by Xin Wushuang and Wanli every day. Xin Wushuang's arrows were equipped with wind, and Wanli's eagle eyes were sharp and his speed was extraordinary. Hua Gu was able to dodge the attacks of Xin Wushuang and Wanli, and a mere fire blade could not hurt her at all.

Several people below the ring were discussing, thinking that Jiang Yi was controlling Lan Yao, but they saw her sitting cross-legged on a cushion, her eyes half-open, supporting her head with her book and yawning, with no intention of paying attention to the battle situation in the arena.

"That's too pretentious! There's a fight going on right in front of her, and she's just reading a crappy book. Is that okay? "

"Is she deliberately pretending to lure Zhuang Chengxuan into attacking? Has she actually already prepared a killing move?"

The people below the stage thought so, and Zhuang Chengxuan on the stage also thought so, so Zhuang Chengxuan had no intention of attacking personally.

Because he is now so poor that he only has this golden armor talisman on him, as long as the other party does not take action, he will not take action.

The showdown between poor people is not exciting at all.

He decided to rely on his demon spirits to fight a war of attrition. His Blazing Golden Rooster was at the eighth level of Qi training, while the opponent's Storm Demon was at the seventh level of Qi training. Its spiritual power reserves were definitely not as good as his Blazing Golden Rooster's.

As long as the Storm Demon's spiritual power is exhausted, the Blazing Golden Rooster's fire blade will hit the Storm Demon and the Storm Demon will be defeated.

Judging from Jiang Yi's frail appearance, he is definitely not able to fight. Then he and the Blazing Golden Rooster will fight two against one, and they will be sure to win.

When Zhuang Chengxuan thought of this, he felt a little relieved and continued to concentrate on guarding against Jiang Yi.
