A man from the Big Dipper, starting his charlatanship at Mount Tai.

How can you fight with your hands and feet?

How about you fight with your head?

He could only assume that Lin Xiu was making fun of him by saying such a thing!

......

"Hahaha~ Alright! Since you don't believe me, let's make a bet!"

"If I can do it, then you will recognize me as your godfather and become my follower!"

"If I cannot do that, I will release you on the spot! Moreover, I will never use the Imperial Weapon against you again!"

"So, Little Tengzi, dare to make this bet with me?"

Lin Xiutu revealed his true intentions: since Wang Teng's mentality had been shattered by the Azure Emperor, he would use the Azure Emperor as a pretext to cause trouble.

"Okay! That's what you said!"

"I'll swear a solemn oath of faith and I'll bet with you on this!"

A spark of hope ignited in Wang Teng's eyes.

If he wins this gamble, he can not only regain his freedom, but also restrict Lin Xiu, preventing him from using his imperial weapon on him. It's an incredible win!

"Alright! In that case, I'll go first!"

To prevent Lin Xiu from having second thoughts, Wang Teng immediately made a vow of Dao heart.

"I, Wang Teng, hereby swear that if Lin Xiu can enable me to defeat the Azure Emperor's phantom with my bare hands and feet, I will recognize him as my godfather and follow him for life!"

"However, if he cannot do that, he must immediately set me free and never use the Imperial Weapon against me again!"

After he finished speaking, a golden Dao pattern flew out from between Wang Teng's eyebrows and merged into the void, causing the Great Dao to resonate in unison.

"I didn't expect you to be in such a hurry."

Lin Xiu knew the reason for Wang Teng's anxiety, but he didn't expose it. He also made the same vow as Wang Teng:

"I, Lin Xiu, hereby swear that if I cannot defeat the Azure Emperor with my hands and feet bound, I will immediately release Wang Teng, and... I will never use an imperial weapon against him again!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden Dao pattern flew out from Lin Xiu's body, echoing and connecting with Wang Teng's oath mark, and together they were reflected in the void.

......

The moment the oath was made, both of them felt an invisible binding force on them.

"The great oath has been sworn; you may now make your move!"

Wang Teng struggled to his feet, his eyes filled with anticipation.

In his view, Lin Xiu had become arrogant and lost his mind after defeating him.

Why did you bind your own hands and feet? Why don't you just say that you could stand still and not move at all and the Azure Emperor would be blown to pieces?

"Alright! Little Tengzi, today I'll broaden your horizons!"

Lin Xiu chuckled and waved his hand, causing the space inside the golden battle flag to begin to distort.

The next second, the environment around the two suddenly changed, moving them from the space of the golden battle flag to the chaotic chessboard.

Wang Teng was beaten to a pulp by the Azure Emperor dozens of times here, leaving him utterly helpless.

......

Chaotic energy permeated the air, and at the center position of the chessboard, a chaotic blue lotus was about to bloom.

"Come!"

Lin Xiu raised his hand and unleashed a divine force, striking the Chaos Green Lotus at the center of the chessboard.

Sensing Lin Xiu's divine power, the Chaos Green Lotus opened, and a green figure gradually condensed, manifesting as a phantom of the Green Emperor of the same realm.

The illusory figure of the Azure Emperor was clad in azure robes, his face blurred, yet the overwhelming aura emanating from him was awe-inspiring. Even though it was merely a wisp of a mark, it carried the majesty of an emperor.

"Qing Emperor..."

Wang Teng subconsciously took a step back, a hint of fear flashing in his eyes.

During this period, he was blasted apart by this phantom dozens of times, which has left him with psychological trauma.

Lin Xiu's side.

Lin Xiu stood at the star position on the Chaos Chessboard, his hands behind his back, and smiled:

"If my foot leaves this star position, I lose."

Upon seeing this, Wang Teng couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Hahaha! Lin Xiu, you've really gone mad!"

"Use your hands and feet? What do you have to fight the Azure Emperor with? Your face?"

Wang Teng laughed so hard he almost fell over, his eyes filled with growing anticipation.

"Let me tell you, every move of the Azure Emperor contains profound truths of the Great Dao. Even if it is just a phantom of the same level, it is enough to crush the geniuses of this era!"

"You might have been able to hold out a little longer if you had gone all out, but instead you've tied your own feet. Hmph!... Just wait to be crushed by the Azure Emperor!"

As he spoke, Wang Teng revealed a bright smile that he hadn't shown since his defeat. He couldn't wait to see Lin Xiu get crushed by the Azure Emperor!

At the same time, two golden phantoms were forming from below Lin Xiu's navel and beside him, which were Lin Xiu's Daoist essence!

Below the navel is Lin Xiu's Daoist essence stored in the Sea of ​​Wheels.

Beside him was the Daoist essence that Lin Xiu had summoned on the spot.

Having recovered system components several times, Lin Xiu's abilities have undergone several evolutions. Not only has his evolutionary ability been strengthened, but his effective range, duration, and burst limit have also been improved.

Now, the duration of Lin Xiudao's true self has increased to 48 hours.

However... Lin Xiu's ability cooldown is still 24 hours.

This means that as long as Lin Xiu summons his Daoist Self once every 24 hours, he can summon two Daoist Selfs at the same time when needed!

.....

"what?!"

Wang Teng was completely stunned. Although he didn't know what the specific move was, he could tell that the two golden phantoms were as strong as Lin Xiu himself!

"What kind of move is this? I've never seen you use it when we fought?" Wang Teng asked subconsciously.

Wang Teng regretted asking the question as soon as it left his mouth.

because.......

"Isn't it obvious? Because you're not qualified!"

"You can't even beat one of me, yet you want to beat two of me?" Lin Xiuli replied matter-of-factly.

Wang Teng: "........"

Wang Teng remained silent, no longer speaking, and simply watched the battle unfold with a heavy heart.

The outcome of the battle was not in any suspense.

Lin Xiu had defeated Qingdi too many times in two-on-one situations, to the point that he knew Qingdi's weaknesses.

A dozen minutes later.

Lin Xiu's two Daoist selves used the Five Elements Divine Light to temporarily freeze the Azure Emperor for a second, while the other used the Lesser Six Paths Reincarnation Fist to punch the Azure Emperor's handsome face.

"Bang!~"

After being destroyed, the Azure Emperor's phantom transformed into a wisp of chaotic energy and returned to the chaotic azure lotus in the center of the chessboard, and everything around gradually returned to calm.

Lin Xiu... throughout the entire process, kept his hands behind his back and his feet on the chessboard's star positions, without moving an inch.

.......

After the Azure Emperor's phantom was defeated, Wang Teng did not utter another word.

Lin Xiu didn't urge him, but just stood there, waiting for Wang Teng to end his silence.

One minute later.

Wang Teng raised his head slightly, took heavy steps to stand in front of Lin Xiu, and said somewhat awkwardly:

“Having made a great vow of faith, I should naturally carry it out.”

"However... before I fulfill my vow, may I discuss one thing with you?"

Lin Xiu hadn't expected Wang Teng to have such an awkward side, and laughed:

"Oh? What is it? Teng'er, please speak freely. Your godfather is very easy to talk to."

Chapter 240 The Grief and Indignation of the Holy Son of the Purple Mansion

Upon seeing Lin Xiu's reply, Wang Teng's expression became even more bitter.

Because that's exactly what he wanted to say.

Wang Teng also has his own pride and bottom line; he wouldn't stoop to renege on his debts.

He just... wanted to change the way he did it.

"Ahem... Um... Immortal Lin, can we only call each other godfather in private?" Wang Teng asked awkwardly.

"what?"

"Isn't this a bit inappropriate? Doesn't this violate your solemn vow of faith?"

"What if it negatively impacts your spiritual path? Wouldn't I, as your godfather, be letting you down?"

Lin Xiu appeared heartbroken and sincere, unwilling to ruin his adopted son's path.

Wang Teng: "........."

Wang Teng didn't feel that Lin Xiu had any intention of "apologizing to him"; he only felt that the wind was a bit noisy.

After a few seconds of silence, Wang Teng slowly stood up, walked to Lin Xiu, and gave Lin Xiu a solemn teacher's salute, his voice extremely sincere:

"Today, the Immortal Venerable's painstaking efforts have enlightened me to the path of chaos and antiquity, and he can be my teacher."

As the saying goes, "A teacher for a day is a father for life."

"Conversely, the teacher is the father, and the father is the teacher."
