Chapter 99: Battle of Life and Death

Xiao Lin didn't have time to feel it. A huge force came from the Void Spirit Shield in front of him. He couldn't help but took a few steps back. The nine-sided Void Spirit Shield was directly chopped into pieces by the young man named Qu. Six sides, this really surprised Xiao Lin.

The young man surnamed Qu was even more frightened than Xiao Lin. Although he had overestimated the defensive power of the Dzogchen-level primary defense spell, he was still horrified when his giant ax struck the Xuyuan Spirit Shield. Others did not You know, he is very clear that the blow just now contains less than half of his magic power. Even if it is a top-quality magic weapon, after receiving this blow, the spiritual light will be dimmed and it will fall into the dust.

"It's fairer now, only the two of us are left." Turning around to look at the young man named Qu, Xiao Lin showed a half-smile expression on his slightly pale face.

The young man surnamed Qu looked at Xiao Lin with a solemn expression: "I really didn't expect that in just one year, you would practice two primary spells of the Great Perfection level. It seems that you don't have the support of a big family behind you. It’s just that you have some kind of treasure, right?”

When Xiao Lin heard this, his face was calm, but he was surprised in his heart. If the young man named Qu hadn't reminded him, he really wouldn't have realized this. Although with the massive amount of Yuan Yuan Dan and this After years of hellish trials, his Void Spirit Shield and Fire Ball Technique had reached perfection. In his eyes, it seemed normal, but in the eyes of ordinary cultivators, it was extremely unusual.

You must know that if you are a casual cultivator, even if you practice day and night and kill all the monsters you can in exchange for spiritual stones to buy Yuan Dan, you will never be able to defeat him in just one year. After practicing two basic spells to perfection, a high-level Qi refining monk, even an ascetic monk, can accumulate one hundred and eighty low-grade spiritual stones in a year. It is not bad. Those with better luck can accumulate more on this basis. If you buy dozens of low-grade spiritual stones, these spiritual stones cannot buy a few Yuanhui Dan, and cannot support cultivators to practice elementary spells to perfection within a year.

That's why the young man named Qu made such a judgment. More than a year ago, outside Wuyin Immortal City, he saw Xiao Lin possessing four Dzogchen-level basic spells. Although he was surprised, he was not surprised. What made him suspicious was that Xiao Lin had family support behind him and had practiced hard since he was a child, so it was still possible to master the four basic spells at the Great Perfection level.

But he was also sure that Xiao Lin had not mastered the Dzogchen-level primary spells at that time. Otherwise, even if he and Su Wencai, two Dzogchen cultivators in the Qi Refining Period, were faced with it, it would not be difficult to leave calmly. However, he did not hesitate to waste his essence and blood, used a strange secret technique, and escaped after paying a heavy price, which further confirmed his guess.

Moreover, he learned from Huo Jun that the Xiao Lin in front of him was also a casual cultivator. Now it seemed a bit strange. All these unreasonable things made him feel that Xiao Lin must have some secret hidden in him.

"Your Excellency, you are thinking too much. You should consider the present first." Xiao Lin had a faint smile on his face, but his eyes were cold. The words of the young man named Qu made the murderous intention in Xiao Lin's heart deeper. It seems that even if he pays some price, he must kill this person to prevent his secret from being leaked.

At the same time, Xiao Lin was also secretly annoyed. It seemed that he would have to keep a low profile in the future. He would not use Dzogchen-level primary spells if he could, and try to hide his own strength. Otherwise, it would be quite troublesome if he aroused suspicion from interested people. , it's okay for cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, but if they encounter a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, they may not be able to escape even if they run away.

"Okay, it's obvious that Fellow Daoist Xiao is not going to let Qu Mou leave alive today, and Qu Mou has never fought to the death with anyone since he entered the Great Perfection Realm of the Qi Refining Stage. Now in this valley, Let's have a good fight, the winner will leave here, and the loser will be buried in this valley, but Qu has a suggestion," the man named Qu touched the giant ax in his hand and said lightly.

"Fellow Daoist Qu, please tell me."

"No matter who wins or loses between us, it goes without saying that the loser must be buried in this valley. Qu just hopes that the winning side can build an unmarked tomb in this valley for the losing side. I want us cultivators to have a lifetime." It is our sorrow to be lonely and not even trust the people closest to us. What is even more sad is that most of us cultivators cannot even retain their bones after death. They are often exposed in the wilderness and devoured by monsters. Qu does not want to end up like this. That’s why I made this proposal.”

Hearing this, Xiao Lin's face showed a trace of surprise, and he nodded: "Okay."

"So, let's get started." The young man surnamed Qu looked solemn, then tapped the bag on his waist, and a palm-sized pale golden shield flew out from it. As soon as the shield left the bag, it swelled in the wind and became more powerful. The size of a foot and a half shone with a hazy golden light, surrounding the young man named Qu.

And his whole body also turned into a light golden color. At first glance, he looked like a golden man, with quite an astonishing aura. At the same time, the spiritual pressure on his body was completely released, and the strength of the Dzogchen cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage was fully revealed.

Xiao Lin's face was solemn. This was the first time since he embarked on the road of cultivation that he had a head-on confrontation with a Dzogchen cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage. At the same time, he felt uneasy and a little excited. Xiao Lin even doubted himself a little. Did he have a violent tendency in his heart? He was actually quite looking forward to the battle with the young man named Qu.

However, Xiao Lin also wanted to truly test his true combat power. If he lost, he would not even be qualified to enter the cave. The cave trial would gather a large number of Qi Refining Great Perfection cultivators. If he could not defeat the young man surnamed Qu in front of him, how could he face those people in the cave?

Nine crystal clear emerald green shields flashed with a faint green light and surrounded Xiao Lin, appearing and disappearing from time to time. At the same time, he also sacrificed the high-level defensive magic weapon of the cyan gold shield. The Seven Blades Slash was also called back by him and held in his hand again. The battle with the young man surnamed Qu could be said to be the most peak one since Xiao Lin started practicing, and it was also his most upright one. With his personality, he basically rarely took the initiative to provoke others, so there would be no dog-blood scenes of duels.

If the young man surnamed Qu did not know too many things, had already peeked into some of his secrets, and had repeatedly intercepted and killed Xiao Lin, he had already been listed as a must-kill person by Xiao Lin, he would not want to fight this inexplicable life-and-death battle with a Qi Refining Great Perfection cultivator.
