Chapter 121 - The Only Way to Defeat Fear (1/2)
Chapter 121 The Only Way to Defeat Fear
The gazes of many disciples seemed to be filled with panic…
However, that was not a big deal. As long as they were not curious, intrigued, or excited, it would not be a big deal.
Li Changshou had expected that reaction from his peers.
The only thing he was worried about was whether the elders in the sect would be displeased with the small punishment that he had given that disciple.
Li Changshou weighed the pros and cons carefully.
We
When that disciple provoked him verbally, it was already tantamount to scolding all the seniors of Little Qiong Peak.
If he did not respond, others might think that he was scheming. That way, they would be wary of him and that would affect his image as an incompetent immortal seedling.
The response and punishment that he had given would not harm the other party, and it would also seem like a joke. It would also make others feel that he was not scheming because he had taken revenge on the spot…
Li Changshou sat back down on his meditation cus.h.i.+on and scanned his surroundings. The disciples either turned their heads away or hung their heads low, not daring to look at him.
He took a few glances at his Little Aunt-Master, who was smiling at the side. He thought to himself in awe, Ah, the wonders of heaven and earth, the wonders of living creatures, and the wonders of the world.
Then, he closed his eyes to rest and “replenish his Dharma powers” while secretly casting the Wind Speech Incantation and monitoring his surroundings. Soon, Li Changshou smiled.
Most of the elders who had some reactions were biased towards him.
Although he had done them a favor by giving them the Ambition Pill, they were all reasonable people. Most of them felt that the disciple of the Immortal Downpour Peak had been rude first.
Li Changshou had already planned in detail. He would appear a few more times later. He would fight normally and not use the Earth Escape. Regardless of whether he won or lost, he would be able to build a “positive” and “ordinary” image for himself.
The next battle between disciples had already begun.
Coincidentally, both of them had started dabbling with the Earth Escape technique after watching the sparring session between Li Changshou and Ao Yi back then. After seeing Li Changshou’s battle earlier, both of them were full of confidence. They smiled.
The executives in the sect reminded them to stop as soon as they scored a point. The battle then began.
The two male disciples bowed and looked at each other. Their auras were connected and they flew backward at the same time.
The two of them quickly moved their hands and launched spells. Their actions were very similar as if they were copying each other!
The Dharma seals were formed at the same time. The two of them threw out two Dharma treasures each. The Dharma treasures that were thrown out a flying sword, a Ruyi Scepter, a flying dagger, and a small gourd…
Earth Escape!
Earth Escape!
Boom! Boom! The moment the two figures landed on the ground, it was as if a trap had appeared on the ground. They were forcefully thrown into the trap and disappeared!
The surrounding disciples looked around. The immortals standing on the jade platforms in the clouds were also staring intently.
The four Dharma treasures floated in mid-air and revolved…
The target… disappeared…
The two disciples underground were also stunned.
They had obtained inspiration from the Spiked Mace of Little Qiong Peak. They could hide with the Earth Escape technique and use Dharma treasures to attack their opponents. They would then be invincible.
However… how do they use Earth Escape? The female disciples from one of the peaks burst out laughing. More and more laughter could be heard.
The expert from the Immortal Du Sect on the jade platform felt a little awkward. However, he suddenly heard a burst of laughter that was rather weak. The Sect Leader, Daoist Wuyou, was already laughing while seated on the main seat.
“The disciples of this batch are quite interesting… Haha.” *Coughs*
The people from Golden Ao Island, Ren School, and the insignificant immortal sects all looked down with a smile.
Originally, they had thought that that half a month would be boring and that there would naturally be nothing much to see during battles between disciples who had yet to become immortals.
However, he did not expect the Immortal Du Sect to be that interesting.
After a while, the two disciples who were fighting, thought of a way to deal with the situation. They began to search underground and secretly came up with strategies…
After a “great battle”, one of the disciples had a slip-up and was driven out of the ground. He was immediately slightly injured by two Dharma treasures that had been waiting to be launched for a long time. He lost the opportunity to do well.
During the later fights, some disciples used Earth Escape.
As a result, Li Changshou’s Earth Escape technique became more concealed. It made people feel that it was not that outstanding. It was as if it was the Immortal Du Sect’s special immortal technique… However, the average duration of the battle became a little longer.
After another two hours, Youqin Xuanya took the stage and dealt with her opponent without losing her composure. She was still enjoying the limelight that she usually did as the Head Disciple… The first day of the battle ended. The disciples had also gone through one round of fighting. The twelfth match of the preliminary round was the most time-consuming. However, during the later parts of the preliminary round, the progress became faster and the battles became more exciting as well.
An hour later, a Heaven Immortal Elder would be explaining the Dao to the disciples. During that hour, the disciples would also make some conclusions…
Li Changshou, who had been meditating the entire time, suddenly heard the sounds of chanting coming from the side.
Jiu Jiu carried half a pot of wine and shook her head.
“The East Continent is in the west of the East Ocean. There is a faction of the Ren School in the East Continent, known as the Immortal Du Sect. In Little Qiong Peak of the Immortal Du Sect, there’s a disciple named Li Changshou. Now, he’s in the Dao Requital realm. He’s good at alchemy, array formations, and escape techniques. He loves to stab others!”
Ling’e smiled and said, “Uncle-Master, stop it. Senior Brother is going to be angry.”
“Little Changshou!”
“Huh?” Li Changshou opened his eyes and looked over. He smiled and took out two bottles of Sugar Bean Pills. Jiu Jiu s.n.a.t.c.hed them away.
Jiu Jiu smiled in satisfaction and said, “Give me your Dharma treasure for fun!”
“It’s just a Dharma artifact.” Li Changshou took out the Spiked Mace and handed it to his Aunt-Master. “There are many outsiders now. Aunt-Master, you must not go and make fun of others.”
“Hmph! Am I that unreliable?”
Jiu Jiu rolled her eyes and carried the Spiked Mace on her shoulder. She puffed her chest out proudly and then flew out on a cloud.
Not long after, a scream could be heard from afar.
When the wonderful weapon returned, the sharp spikes were stained with immortal blood. The disciples did not dare to look at it at all.
“As expected, it’s such a thrill!”
Jiu Jiu returned the spiked club to Li Changshou. “Lend it to me and let me play with it again next time!”
The corners of Li Changshou’s mouth lips twitched slightly. He did not dare to ask further and put away the Spiked Mace.
On the first day, the elder who started preaching the Dao and reading sutras was the Deputy Sect Leader, Exalted Zhong Yu.
The old Daoist priest flew into the sky and recited a few mysterious sutras that he might not even understand. Then, he began to talk about the Kindness Sutra of Ren School.
After all, it was impossible to talk about the contents of the Inaction Scripture.
That night, the disciples held themselves back from yawning and listened to the lecture for the entire night.
