Forge your destiny into a sword, slash your soul and ascend to immortality

Chapter 93: Ying's son, the fisherman

The battle situation came to a stalemate for a while, with [Chain Divine Machine] and [Tamamonomae] entangled in a fight to the death.

Jing Qian, who was standing aside, just took action to squeeze out the lifespan.

After seeing the three people in front of him, Jing Qian's expectations for the upcoming trip to [Zhuling Cave Heaven] were greatly lowered.

He finally realized that this [Yingfutu Realm] was also a world where people relied on their fathers, family background, and connections. For cultivators from grassroots backgrounds, the process of striving for advancement was quite difficult.

His practice after entering the Tao was like sparks and lightning, without any pause.

Every step he took was extremely solid, and the foundation was very solid. He believed that he had achieved the ultimate.

He possesses super-level combat power and has made all necessary preparations. He plans to come to this cave to compete with the true geniuses.

But when I came in, I found that each of these guys was holding an external [Spiritual Machine] whose strength far exceeded their own cultivation level. With the power of [Spiritual Machine], they brought their combat strength to a new level.

After all this time, it turns out they are all a bunch of second generation!
How could a grassroots loser like him from a marginalized military region compete with them?

The plan has changed. He no longer asks for great opportunities. He only hopes that he can safely survive the chaos in the cave and see the world.

Wait until he gets out, continues to practice hard, improves his combat power, and then fights with these second generations.

Only with a goal can there be motivation. Jing Qian’s fighting spirit continues to be stimulated, and he feels that his desire to practice has been maximized again!

Twelve Dharma lineages have appeared in five families, and the beacon host of one family has been eliminated.

A fierce battle is underway between [Chongxuan Palace] and [Jingyun Shrine].

On the other side, without Lingjizi from [Zhongxuan Palace] causing trouble, two more hosts entered.

Jing Qian looked over and saw that one of them was a hot girl with a golden centipede wrapped around her waist.

This girl has fair skin, delicate skin and beautiful looks, but she is dressed coolly, as if she just walked out of a tropical rainforest.

The golden centipede on her waist is also a powerful spiritual power:
[Inspiration: Golden Centipede for Life]

Category: Moon of the Outer Path/Seeking One's Own Roots

[Rank: Fifth Grade]

[Requirements for suppression: insect appearance]

【Life span burden: 9 hours/day】

After the girl came in, she immediately realized the situation. With a turn of her magic power, her whole body burst like a bubble and disappeared.

But in Jing Qian's eyes of [Worldly Understanding], the female cultivator's body turned into a strange poisonous insect that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, floating in the air.

This person should be the successor of Zhuzhou's [Zhushan Sect]. This sect handles poisonous insects and enters the Tao in the form of insects. It is quite strange and extremely difficult to deal with.

However, compared to this, another person surprised Jing Qian even more.

It was a bird-man who descended here. He had a bird's head and a pair of wings on his back, and a small purple snake wrapped around his neck. He must be a cultivator from Yunzhou's [Yuhua Sect].

Moreover, Jing Qian is very familiar with this person.

The Dharma image of [Shenpeng], the spiritual inspiration of [Fuling], and the sixth-grade [Dragon Python], these are clearly his old leader Ling Mingji.

But, hasn’t the other party already been promoted to the level of [Fu Ling]?
Doesn't this [Zhuling Cave Heaven] only invite cultivators below the [Yanshou] realm to come here?
How did he get in here!

Jing Qian did not expose the truth, but just watched silently.

At this time, Lingjizi from [Zhongxuan Palace] spoke again:

"Fox, we can't decide the winner in a short time. Don't waste your time and energy."

"There are still a few people who haven't come in yet. Please move aside and let me continue to drive them away."

"Fellow Daoists, please don't just stand there. Come with me to stop the enemy."

"[Zhuling Cave Heaven] is a rare opportunity, so naturally the fewer people competing, the better."

After hearing this, [Tamamonomae] did not continue to fight, but directly withdrew from the battle, transformed into a human form, and stood aside.

Then he looked deeply at Jing Qian in the clouds without saying a word.

Jing Qian withdrew his magic power and stopped the small action of harvesting lifespans, pretending that nothing had happened.

For a moment, the six people in the cave fixed their eyes on the entrance, waiting for the newcomer to enter.

It is an old tradition in [Zhuling Cave Heaven] that those who come first bully those who come later.

The time nodes for beacon activation are all the same, but who can descend into the cave first depends on cultivation, magic power and understanding of space.

In this regard, Jing Qian, who has the weakest cultivation, happens to have a unique advantage.

Fortunately, he came in early enough and only faced a gangster. If he came in now, he might have been kicked out.

The eighth beacon host entered in. The people who had arrived earlier were not polite at all. They attacked together with a burst of magic power, severely injuring him and driving him out of [Zhuling Cave Heaven].

Even Jing Qian mixed in and secretly used two swords to gain some life span for free.

This unfortunate friend, wearing a monk's robe, with no hair or eyebrows, was a high monk from the Wuchang Temple. He came in to breathe a breath of the fresh air of the Zhuoling Cave Heaven, and then went back to practice Buddhism.

The ninth host received the same treatment. He was violently beaten up after entering and was forced to leave the cave.

Seeing him bleed profusely, all over the ground, the amount was so large, so much, and so bright, he must be a top talent of the [Blood River Sect].

Now, of the twelve Dharma lineages that Jing Qian has not yet identified, only the [Ying family], [Xingdou Kuishan], [Cihangzhai] and [Lingluo Palace] are left.

The first middle-aged cultivator who was kicked out should be a senior cultivator from one of the sects, but Jing Qian was not knowledgeable enough to tell.

Immediately afterwards, the tenth host arrived, and as usual, the six people bombarded him with chain hammers, spatulas, fox fur, and flying Gu. It was very lively.

But this monk really held on!
I saw a star flickering, then it collapsed and turned into infinite starlight, encompassing all the magical attacks.

As the starlight gathered and dispersed, a figure quietly passed through the obstacles of the people blocking the way and stood at the edge of the sky.

But he was a shy young man in a purple robe!

He laughed and said:
"My fellow Taoists, this is a ferocious greeting. I am [Xing Dou Kui Shan] Shan Yi. Would you mind adding me as one?"

After saying that, he swung out a ray of starlight and attacked the entrance of the cave, as if to say, "I know everything and there's no need to talk nonsense."

The other people failed to stop them, and did not say much, but waited for the last two people.

Not long after, a bamboo shadow emerged quietly and covered the eleventh host.

The host's age is hard to tell, but she is a beautiful lady in palace dress with exquisite makeup.

Jing Qian saw clearly that the bamboo shadow covering the beauty was also very familiar to him. It was actually the [Second Seed of Cloud Bamboo]!
Compared with the [Fifth Seed] growing on [Qiyue Island], this seed is inherently powerful and has already reached the fifth-grade [Earthly Evil] level.

Moreover, when it landed on the island, it received a fourth-grade [Star Picking] magic power from the original body of [Yunzhu].

At this moment, it actually briefly displayed the combat power of the fourth level, blocking all the attacks of the enemies.

Jing Qian slashed out two sword threads, but found that not only could he not break the defense, he couldn't even gain his lifespan for free, so he withdrew his magic power.

He finally realized that none of these lower-level cultivators played by the rules.

Each of them is a Jinchūriki of high-quality [Spiritual Power], and their own presence is quite low.

He thought about his own Bald Cat, Qili. They were both from the Outer Path. If he were to use him against the enemy, his only chance of winning would be to make the enemy laugh to death.

The monks from [Cihangzhai] showed up, and the only cultivation lineages that had not yet appeared were [Lingluo Palace] and [Ying Clan].

The first handsome middle-aged cultivator who was kicked out was most likely a high-ranking cultivator from the Lingluo Palace.

[Lingluo Palace], [Xuehe Sect] and [Wuchang Temple] were the first three brothers to be eliminated.

Jing Qian couldn't get involved, so he squatted in the clouds and watched the battle.

Including himself, there were eight [Lingjizi] who arrived first and besieged [Yunzhuzishi]. They actually ended up in a draw for a while, which surprised him very much.

"Eh? Eight?"

Jing Qian counted it again and found that he was not wrong!
He then pushed the power of [Worldly Solution] to its extreme, and a figure, breaking through the barrier of knowledge and perception, suddenly appeared in his eyes.

It turned out to be a young child of seven or eight years old!
The child was wearing a black and gold robe with dragon patterns, and on his shoulder sat a palm-sized red ghost. He had arrived in the [Zhuling Cave Heaven] at some point.

He was blessed with a unique Dharma aura, and even Jing Qian's [Worldly Solution] was deceived and ignored him when he was not paying attention.

When Jing Qian saw this figure, he felt a sharp pain in his eyes. The two ghosts stationed in his eyes twisted as if they were pricked by needles.

He has traveled all over the world for so long and has seen the world, but the child in front of him is the strongest!
Jing Qian felt something was wrong, so he turned on the stealth function of [Sumeru Ghost Skin] to the maximum and quietly escaped to the sky.

It was not until he rose to a height of a hundred miles that he finally encountered the cloud barrier and could no longer move forward.

At this time, the monks under his feet had all turned into the size of sesame seeds. He relied entirely on the power of [World Solution] to get a glimpse of the overall situation.

[Yun Zhuzishi] was outnumbered alone, and although he had the support of the [Picking Stars] magic power, his aura gradually weakened.

This palace beauty from Cihangzhai could only be said to be extremely unlucky. She came in the latest and therefore suffered the strongest siege.

Even if she could manage to hold on, her trump card, the [Star Picking] mana, would have been used up in advance.

At this moment, the strange child suddenly took action!
He didn't care about the surging fluctuations of magic power in the battlefield at all, but walked slowly to the center.

It was not until he waved his hand and wiped out all the magic power of everyone that the people present suddenly realized his existence!
And then, the initiative on the battlefield was completely controlled by this child.

A powerful magical power suppressed everyone present, making them unable to move at all.

Whether it’s [Yunzhu] or [Tamamonomae]!
Whether it’s a bug girl or a bird person!
Whether he is a wok flipper or a mecha repairman!

Even Jing Qian, who had escaped to the roof, was completely subdued by this great magical power. He stuck to the clouds and could not move.

All the Lingjizi from the major sects who were so arrogant and powerful just now were frozen on the spot.

The child walked to the side of the [Cloud Bamboo Fruit], looked at it for a while, and then stretched out his right hand to break the bamboo.

"Crack!"

This fifth-grade [Spiritual Inspiration], the seed of the fourth-grade divine bamboo, was actually broken off by him in a big piece!
[Yun Zhu Zi Shi]'s aura suddenly dropped, and the beauty in palace dress coughed up a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the side.

Then, the child took another step and walked to Ling Mingji's side. He looked at him carefully and then reached out to touch the wings of the roc behind him.

Then, the child suddenly pulled down, tearing off Ling Mingji's left wing. Ling Mingji's bird head trembled, and he seemed to want to say something, but was completely suppressed.

The child continued to move. This time, he came to the hot girl from the Bamboo Mountain Sect, grabbed the neck of the Praying Golden Centipede, and pulled off the lower half of the centipede's body.

He casually threw the giant centipede aside, not caring at all that the woman next to him was foaming at the mouth and lying on the ground.

He continued to move forward and came to the side of Tamamonomae. He stretched out his right hand and forcibly pulled out his left eye from his face.

This was a very cruel blow. Tamamonomae's spiritual power was damaged and his aura dropped sharply.

Later, the child came to the upside-down copper pot, bent down, stretched out his hand and lifted the copper pot up.

The little fat man from the Kitchen God's Shop, who had been hiding under the pot, gave the child an awkward smile, scratched his head, and said tentatively:
"May I ask if he is the current crown prince of the Ying family? He is truly extraordinary!"

"I wonder what the prince wants?"

Finally, someone in the audience spoke up.

Only then did Jing Qian finally confirm that this extremely fierce child was Ying's son.

The Ying family member glanced at the fat boy, threw the bamboo nuts, chicken wings, insect segments, and fox eyes he had just taken in front of him, and replied:
"I'm hungry, please make these for me!"

The little fat man was alert for a moment and immediately answered:

"Sure, sure! This is what I'm best at."

He immediately picked up the spatula and started cooking.

But then he remembered something and scratched his head again, saying awkwardly:
"Prince, there is no fire or stove here, I'm afraid we can't cook such good ingredients!"

Yingzi rolled his eyes at him, turned around and walked to Lingjizi of [Zhongxuan Palace], and kicked the divine machine to the ground.

Then, he threw a heavy punch, and a big hole was hammered into the chest and abdomen of this [Chain Divine Machine].

He touched the forehead of the little ghost on his shoulder again. The little ghost, who had kept his eyes closed, suddenly opened his mouth and spit out a flame, which fell into the big hole on the chest of the Chain God Machine.

This lying divine machine has actually become a metal stove.

The flames spewed out by the little ghost burned fiercely. It was obvious that it was not ordinary fire. It soon burned the divine machine red.

Lingjizi from the [Zhongxuan Palace] didn't even last a minute before he opened the crystal cover on the head of the magic machine and jumped out of it.

If he had come out any later, he would have been roasted by the fire.

The thin young monk stood next to Shen Ji and looked at his beloved Ling Ji. His face turned ashen when he saw how he was treated.

The little fat man plucked up his courage, walked up to it, put his big pot on the stove, and started to cook.

The friend driving the mecha looked even more pale!

But the Ying family member didn't care about everyone's reaction. He almost ravaged all the [Lingji people].

Of the remaining two people, one was floating in the air, scattering starlight, and the other was on top of the clouds, thinking that he was hiding so well that he would not be discovered.

This child didn't spoil any of them. He just stretched out his little hands, and two terrifying red claws stretched out, pulling the Star Man and Jing Qian down from the left and right.

For a moment, Jing Qian wanted to escape into [Sumeru] and run away!

But when he saw that the group of [Lingjizi] were tortured and yet they all endured it, he also held on and did not run away.

The child dragged the last two down and pulled them in front of him with his red claws.

He first glanced at the young man from [Xingdou Kuishan], then controlled his devil claws and crushed him directly.

The boy once again transformed into starlight and disintegrated, only to reunite immediately.

Ying's son shook his head and said:

"You created a starlight incarnation and dared to come to this [Zhuling Cave Heaven] to hang out. Do you really think that no one can deal with you?"

He then patted the little ghost on his shoulder again, ready to let it spit fire to burn the star man.

The star man then bowed and saluted, then said:
"Your Highness, calm down. I cannot withstand your divine fire. I have no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."

"Yesterday, I was making final preparations, but I overexerted myself and caused Fu Ling to ascend."

"Time is urgent. There is no time to send other disciples from the sect, so we had to send an avatar to fill the gap."

"Since the prince is not satisfied, I will leave the realm first."

"Prince, if you have time, come to my [Xingdou Kuishan] for tea."

After the Star Man finished speaking, he completely turned into a ray of starlight and disappeared on the spot.

Since then, another disciple of the Dharma lineage was cleared out, leaving only the last eight people at the scene.

As one of the eighth, Jing Qian was naturally also dealt with by Ying's son.

The other party controlled the devil's claws and tore his [Sumeru Ghost Skin] apart directly.

Afterwards, Ying looked at the large piece of human skin in his hand, threw it to the ground, and said with a look of disgust:

"What a filthy thing!"

After saying this, he looked at Jing Qian who had revealed his true form and said:

"This is more pleasing to the eye. What's the point of having so many weird things? It's too petty."

"How come you, the [Pure Yang Ruins] Lingjizi of your generation, are so frivolous and lack any sharpness? Instead of practicing your proper swordsmanship, what's the point of all these unconventional secret techniques from [Yanfu Dao]?"

"Go back and cultivate for a few more years!"

After saying that, Yingzi threw Jing Qian to the ground, then raised a huge bare foot and stepped on Jing Qian.

Nima!

Jing Qian had been in this [Zhuoling Cave Heaven] for less than half a day, and this was the second time his body had been destroyed by someone.

The son of the Ying family actually treated him like a cockroach, and this kick almost crushed him to pieces!
Above his heart, a strand of flesh buds melted away again, and the vast vitality and magic power snatched back Jing Qian's dying body.

"what?"

Ying was quite surprised that his kick didn't push the kid out of the door.

He then stepped on it again!
"Paji!"

Jing Qian was in a miserable state with juice splashing everywhere again, but was once again rescued by a strand of flesh buds.

There were still twenty-seven flesh buds left on his chest, which were refined from the vital energy he had accumulated by gnawing on thousands of [Yin Bones].

With so many granulations, it would be difficult for him to die in a short time.

With the [Zhuling Cave Heaven] to back him up, his life is safe. He plans to argue with this Ying family member for a while and see how things develop.

If things really cannot be done, he can just rely on [Sumeru] to escape.

During this entanglement process, he personally experienced the other party's magic power, and [Shijie] finally understood the other party's message.

[Inspiration: Flame Demon Luo]

【Type: Outer Moon】

[Rank: Third Grade]

[Destiny: Flame Demon]

[Requirement for suppression: Concordance with destiny]

【Life span burden: January/Day】

It's totally unjust!
The cultivation level of this little boy on the other side is exactly the same as Jing Qian's. Both are at the initial stage of [Dragon Elephant] and have not yet condensed their Dharma images.

In other words, the other party used this [Flame Demon Luo] to complete the [Spiritual Inspiration forging destiny]!
The above three grades of peerless [Spiritual Inspiration] cast destiny. What kind of foundation for cultivation is this, and what an unreasonable combat power blessing is this?
No wonder the other party could easily sweep away everything and beat up all of you [Inspirational Men].

Just when Yingzi was getting angry and preparing to kick Jingqian for the third time, [Zhuling Dongtian] finally changed, interrupting his action and attracting everyone's attention.

Suddenly, a little old man with a hunched back walked out of the clouds.

The old man was wearing a sallow and weather-beaten face and a sewn garment.

He held a bamboo fishing rod in his left hand, a stool in his right hand, and a small wooden box on his back. He walked to the center of the lake, put down the stool, and sat down.

The old man glanced at the chaotic battlefield nearby, then ignored it and started to busy himself with his own business.

He opened the box he carried with him, took out a worm from it, and hooked it on the fishing rod.

Then he threw the fishing line forward, sat down on the stool and started fishing.

However, his fishing hook did not fall into the lake, but went upwards and pierced straight into the clouds, extending infinitely, and it was unknown where it would end up.

Jing Qian saw clearly that the bait on the hook was not an ordinary earthworm, but a fifth-grade [True Dragon].

This old man's strength is unfathomable, and what he wants to catch is even more unimaginable.

The appearance of this fisherman prompted Ying's son to let Jing Qian go and walk forward.

The son of the Ying family was not polite and asked directly:
"Angler, everyone is here. When do we start?"

The old man turned his head to look at him, coughed, and said slowly:

"I've heard that a true dragon has appeared in the Ying Family Temple. It's true that he has deep roots and a bright future."

"However, your temper is even worse than your uncle and your great-grandfather's."

"Please wait a little longer. Someone else from the Divine Dynasty's [Tiangang Pagoda] needs to come and watch the ceremony. We'll begin once he arrives."

"The fish are about to be caught, all of you youngsters, come and take a look."

After hearing this, the other six injured Lingjizi came over.

The mecha brothers were left alone, trying to find a way to quickly put out the cooking fire so that they could save the stove.
