My path to immortality began with my posting to guard Dawancun.

Chapter 62 Reactions from all parties
In just a few breaths,
Just moments before, Shen Rongguang was full of confidence and arrogance, but now he has been blasted off the stage.

The surroundings fell silent in that instant.

Deathly silence.

Even the sound of breathing seemed to have disappeared.

It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

No one expected that this battle would end like this!

You should know that at the beginning,
Even Si Houqing, the financial backer, had no expectations for the outcome of this battle.

I was prepared to lose that deal long ago.

And it was not just the passersby and onlookers around, but also the other business leaders who were presiding over the event on the high platform.

After learning that Shen Rongguang was from the Shen family of Tiannan, they all felt that the outcome of the battle was no longer in doubt.

The difference is that the figure on the other side, wearing a straw hat and a bronze mask that covers his face completely, can only withstand a few moves.

Even if there are occasionally those who don't follow the crowd and have unconventional opinions,

At most, he dared to think that Shen Rongguang might have underestimated his opponent, and after a hard-fought battle, he was careless and his opponent made a desperate comeback against all odds.

I never dared to imagine it.
Shen Rongguang, a scion of the prestigious Tiannan Shen clan, was utterly defeated in this remote place by an unknown nobody in just a few breaths?!

and,

From the moment the attack was launched to the end of the battle, only four or five breaths had passed.

In this short time,

For some ordinary cultivators, they're probably still casting spells and condensing magic, right?
And that's how the battle ended?!

This is really incredible!
If I hadn't witnessed it with my own eyes, I probably would have thought someone was talking nonsense!
"That just now, could it have been a perfected Wind Blade Technique and a perfected Fireball Technique?!"

At this moment, on the high platform

The other business leaders, who had initially been nonchalant, were taken aback, but their expressions quickly turned serious.

They had no choice but to be solemn.

Although Wind Blade and Fireball are just the most basic, and also the most widely spread, basic spells.

However, to cultivate to the point of perfect instantaneous release,
Especially considering that he was able to cultivate it to perfection at only the sixth level of Qi Refining.

That's something that ordinary people can't do!

Not to mention the area within hundreds of miles of Wujiaji,
Within a radius of three thousand miles of Qingcheng, those who can do this are all geniuses, a rare breed indeed!
"That's right, it is indeed a perfect-level spell!"

"Five wind blades and three fireballs were cast almost simultaneously! Such instantaneous attacks can only be achieved by mastering a spell to perfection!"

“I once met that prodigy from the Wu family who joined the Jade Purity Sect. Back then, he had mastered a perfect spell, just like now, and could activate it one after another in the blink of an eye. He made an extremely ordinary spell so skillful that even ordinary geniuses could not withstand it!”

"Where did Si Houqing find such a genius? He actually masters two perfect-level spells!"

"Such a person, even if he could join a top sect like the Jade Purity Sect, would certainly be qualified for a small or medium-sized sect!"

Awe-inspiring and shocked voices spread among the group.

The heads of the various trading companies exchanged glances, their eyes revealing a clear sense of covetousness.

Putting aside whether the masked man has great potential or not,

The question is whether it's worthwhile to invest in advance.

Even just getting to know them a little would be enough for them to get involved.

Because of this established rule for resolving disputes through ring battles, which has been in place for over a hundred years.
If they could forge a friendship with Shen Changchuan, then the next time they had a dispute with someone else, they could bring him in as an ally and ask him to represent them in the competition. Wouldn't that guarantee victory?!
You should know that none of the top fighters they trained have mastered perfect-level spells!

For a while,
Many thoughts were already forming in their minds.

"How is this possible?! How could we possibly lose?!"

Unlike the shock and various thoughts that arose in the minds of others,
At this moment, the manager of the Wanghu Chamber of Commerce suddenly stood up, his previous leisurely demeanor completely vanished.

His eyes were fixed on the arena below, his face filled with disbelief.

He had planned so much and paid a heavy price for this arena battle.
He already had a plan in mind on how to better seize more benefits after winning.
Now tell him,
We actually lost?!
How could we lose!
He looked at Shen Rongguang's body, which had been blasted off the stage and was covered in black, and a hint of resentment and malice surfaced deep in his eyes.

It's a shame you're a member of the prominent Shen family of Tiannan.

Now they've been defeated by an unknown nobody!
It's so ridiculous!
"Hahaha!"

"It seems that Mr. Si's judgment is indeed superior!"

"As the saying goes, too much scheming leads to being too clever. I advise someone to focus on managing their own business steadily and not to spend their days engaging in crooked and unethical activities, which will only result in losing both their wife and their army."

Si Houqing also stood up from his astonishment.

He was in a very good mood at the moment.

He burst into laughter, glanced at the manager of the Wanghu Chamber of Commerce on the other side, and said loudly with sarcasm in his voice.

He couldn't help but be excited.
I thought we were doomed to lose.

Unexpectedly, the final result was a turn of events, a complete reversal of fortune!
It turns out those nobody people weren't bragging at all.
Shen Changchuan really does possess such strength!

It's truly fortunate that we were able to get such a skilled player to join the team!
In response to Si Houqing's words,
The manager of the Wanghu Chamber of Commerce had a gloomy expression.
No sound was heard.

at the same time,

On the arena, Shen Changchuan felt a long sigh of relief.

comfortable!
not long ago,

They trembled with fear before a powerful local family like the Wu family, lest they fall into the abyss if they were not careful.

Although Wu Yuanzhi did not directly express his authority, the indirect threats still made him feel resentful.

They happened to be facing that guy named Shen Rongguang, who immediately displayed extreme arrogance.
This allowed him to vent his frustrations.
In just a few breaths, he was knocked off the field one after another.

This made him feel much better.

Moreover, after this battle
Shen Changchuan also gained a deeper understanding of his own abilities.

If he were to participate in any of the family's major or minor competitions now, he would likely perform well and thus receive a significant amount of family resources.

However, when I think about the family backgrounds of the First Madam and the Second Madam, as well as their jealous nature...

Shen Changchuan couldn't help but shudder.

never mind,

If you don't want to die, you'd better stay put.

Only by entering the state of Astral projection

Only then does he have the right to break free from the shackles and constraints of his family.

He now,

We're still a long way off!
Just as Shen Changchuan was having a thought and was about to turn and leave.

at this time,

boom!
A heavy sound landed on the arena, causing the ring to tremble.

"Your actions were rather ruthless."

"I see that you haven't had enough fun yet. My name is Shen Chongshan. I am honored to be addressed as 'Big Brother' by Brother Rongguang. How about I challenge you to a duel and let you have a good fight?!"

As a powerful voice rang out,
A towering figure appeared not far ahead.
His gloomy face and sharp eyes stared directly at Shen Changchuan, giving people a strong sense of oppression!
Seventh level of Qi Refining?!
They could feel the powerful aura emanating from Shen Chongshan, as well as the immense pressure emanating from him.

Shen Changchuan's heart skipped a beat.
But at this moment, he was also secretly excited.

Qi-inducing stage seven

He was arguably the strongest enemy I had ever encountered!

That's a late-stage Qi Refining stage!
With my current strength, am I qualified to confront them?
He's curious!

Shen Changchuan was tempted.

Perhaps playing a match wouldn't be bad.

At least you'll know where your strength lies!
Shen Changchuan was not afraid at all. He met Shen Changchuan's gaze, and a fighting spirit rose within him.

The air fell silent again.

The atmosphere was a bit anxious.

A battle between a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator and a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator seems about to erupt.

however,
After a few breaths,

Shen Changchuan didn't speak, and silently turned to look at the high platform.

"Is this also one of the rules of arena battles?"

The group of chamber of commerce leaders on the high platform were stunned for a moment.

"Of course not."

"The Sanhe Chamber of Commerce has won this battle!"

The guild leader, who was put forward to preside over the arena battle, then directly announced the results of the fight.

"In that case, I refuse!"

He left behind a bland remark, ignoring Shen Chongshan's somewhat angry gaze.

Shen Changchuan turned and left immediately.

joke,

There's no benefit in winning or losing.

Why should he fight him?
He's not some kind of war maniac who's excited about battle.

in contrast,

Compared to the hot-blooded battles,

He prefers to lie low.

Gradually improve your cultivation level.

If not for external disturbances, he could have survived until the end of time, even until he became an immortal!
