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

Chapter 802 Confidence
"Tsk, five thousand high-grade spirit stones!"

"Sure enough, no matter how hard you work, it's never as good as earning extra money!"

In mid-air, Shen Changchuan watched Xuan Tianxing disappear into the horizon as it transformed into a streak of light, feeling an overwhelming sense of joy.

How could I not be overjoyed?

With a single transaction, one can obtain five thousand high-grade spirit stones, equivalent in value to a Pure Yuan Ming Dao Pill.

Such huge profits are practically free!
If I were to transfer to the inner sect of a celestial sect and take on missions, traveling around and working hard, I probably wouldn't earn enough for five thousand high-grade spirit stones even in eight or ten years!
It's certainly something to be happy about that you can get such great benefits just by lifting a finger!
Of course,
These five thousand high-grade spirit stones are not guaranteed to be obtained.

If he loses the battle with Xuan Tianxing, then naturally he will get nothing.

However, regarding this battle,
Shen Changchuan didn't think he would lose either.

The reason why Xuan Tianxing dared to challenge him was simply because his strength had improved considerably. For example, it was very likely that he had truly entered the realm of enlightenment and comprehended the true meaning, thus gaining confidence.

Having grasped the true meaning, his strength greatly increased.
In addition, because of his battle with Lin Wushuang in the competition, his trump card was exposed.

With targeted measures in place, overcoming oneself does not seem to be a difficult task.

after all,

The spatial transfer technique that Shen Changchuan displayed in the competition was mostly a mechanism that could kill upon first sight.

If Lin Wushuang hadn't anticipated his other tricks and hadn't been so eager for quick success, gambling the outcome on a single blow, then he might not have lost to him in the end.

Now that his trump card has been exposed, the opponent only needs to be careful, not greedy, and slowly stall for time, and he will naturally be able to defeat him with his true intentions!

Xuan Tianxing's considerations were not unreasonable.

Even Shen Changchuan himself,
They also felt that with their spatial teleportation trump card exposed, they should take targeted countermeasures.

A year ago, I might not have been a match for Xuan Tianxing, who had already grasped the true meaning!
If I haven't made much progress this year,

It's quite possible that we could be defeated by them!
Xuan Tianxing's willingness to challenge himself was not reckless.

"Your strength has certainly improved significantly in just one year."

"But has Shen Changchuan ever stood still?"

"Using my strength from over a year ago to judge the outcome, aren't you underestimating me a bit?"

As he watched the other person transform into a streak of light and disappear into the horizon, several thoughts flashed through Shen Changchuan's mind.

Admittedly,

Over the past year, Xuan Tianxing successfully comprehended the true meaning, and his strength greatly improved.

How could I, Shen Changchuan, not have made progress?!

This Xuan Tian Star,

That's incredibly arrogant!
While they improved their own strength, they didn't consider that others would also improve their strength in the same way!

Just thinking about the unpleasant experience of meeting the other party...

Shen Changchuan, however, felt that it was only natural for the other party to be so arrogant.

However, given the other party's disdain...

Shen Changchuan didn't care much about it.

There's no need to argue about this.

When the real fight breaks out, the winner and loser, and who will be proven wrong, will be clear from the facts.

When the battle truly begins
Xuan Tianxing would then discover that Shen Changchuan had not stood still.
He even successfully entered the realm of true meaning, and through his efforts during this period, combined with the Pure Yuan Mingdao Pill, the fragments of the Enlightenment Stone, and the Myriad Dao Diagram, he raised his progress in true meaning to 3.4%!
You've made great progress.
But unfortunately,
I've made even greater progress! Regarding this,

Shen Changchuan has enough confidence!
With the power of space adding 3.4% to the progress of the True Meaning of Time, he didn't know how he could lose!
"Speaking of which, since they're willing to give such a large sum of spirit stones, should we go easy on them?"

"Hmm, let's see how it goes. If the difference in strength between us is too great, then we'll hold back a little."

Shen Changchuan stroked his chin.

The fact that Xuan Tianxing was so wealthy made him have a certain idea.

"If I let him lose the battle by the narrowest of margins, would he go back and work harder to challenge me again in the future and avenge his previous defeat?"

"Good idea! Let him lose, but not so badly that he's completely devastated. Don't let him show too much strength; make him think he was just a little short and lost to me due to bad luck."

“In the previous competition, he couldn’t last more than ten moves against me. If he fights me this time and we are evenly matched, and he is only one move away from being defeated, then he will definitely think that he can beat me next time, and thus challenge me to another duel in the future!”

Thinking of this,

Shen Changchuan couldn't help but drool.

If they challenge him to a fight again in the future, he can collect another fee from them.

and,

Since he feels his chances of winning have greatly increased next time, he might accept more than five thousand high-grade spirit stones as my fee, even ten thousand high-grade spirit stones!
even,
I can control the battle in the future, and I'll always be just one step away from winning.

This keeps the other party hanging.

I wonder if it's possible to carry out harvesting?

"Brother Xuan Tianxing, you have to work harder! My chance to obtain the Pure Yuan Bright Dao Pill depends on you!"

Right now,

In his eyes, Xuan Tianxing was no longer an enemy or foe.

Instead, it's a large sum of high-grade spirit stones that you can walk around in!

After a long while,
Shen Changchuan suppressed his thoughts and turned back to his own cave.

Upon returning to his cave, Shen Changchuan did not rush to begin his secluded cultivation.

At this time, he

They had already temporarily put the matter of Xuan Tian Star out of their minds.

After all, the challenge is scheduled for seven days from now, so there's still plenty of time.

Furthermore, Shen Changchuan didn't think he could increase his strength much in these seven days.

At this moment, he

He was sitting cross-legged on a white jade cushion.
Faced with the five Pure Yuan Bright Dao Pills retrieved from Wanbao Pavilion, he couldn't help but feel conflicted.

"According to the original plan, I should have cultivated enough second-tier and top-tier second-tier spells, accumulated enough experience in perfecting the characteristics, and then taken the Pure Yuan Mingdao Pill, supplemented by the Enlightenment Stone Fragment and the Myriad Dao Diagram, to maximize the effect of the latter two."

"This path can maximize the use of these top-level cultivation resources and significantly increase my success rate in comprehending one-tenth of the true meaning before advancing to the Divine Travel Realm."

"But now that the pills have arrived, and there are five of them, am I just going to hoard them in my storage bag without doing anything?"

Looking at the five bottles floating in mid-air,

Shen Changchuan's expression began to shift uncertainly.
