Chapter 451 Progress

Chen Cheng is a very calm person. Under the gaze of many eyes, he seems to have no feeling at all. His eyes just fall on his knife, as if the knife is everything.

Gu Zhaoyuan also stopped chattering those pretentious words.

Obviously, he realized that the method of disturbing the mind was useless against the knife-wielding boy in front of him.

Unlike many geniuses, Gu Zhaoyuan did not show his genius very early. Even before the magic pill, he had always been an unknown person in the previous class.

Such a person has experienced the lowest level of the spiritual world and does not reject any means to win. In his heart, achieving his own goal is the most important thing.

The gentle breeze blows, bringing with it the moist air contained in the ten thousand-year-old water of Taihu Lake.

Chen Cheng moved.

The short blade like a hatchet drew an arc in the air, just like an ordinary woodcutter chopping down a piece of dead wood. His expression was reserved, but the knife in his hand was filled with a strange arrogance. .

This is a young man who looks like a hunter, using movements like chopping wood.

Drawing an arc in the void caused a huge change in the expression of Gu Zhaoyuan on the opposite side.

The power of heaven and earth in the sky is turbulent, and with one strike, it looks like a big mountain.

The relaxation on Gu Zhaoyuan's face had completely disappeared, and then a crisp and bright sword sound resounded throughout the audience.

He transformed Tianyuan with his sword, and then things like matrices appeared, and things like chessboards appeared in the air, and the Sons of Black and White were constantly rotating.

Ding!

The hatchet and chessboard bloomed into a huge bud in the air.

Suddenly it expanded and turned into spots of spiritual power all over the sky.

At the same time, swords and swords clashed in the air.

Gu Zhaoyuan disappeared and turned into a chess piece.

Zuo Daoqi squinted his eyes, becoming interested in Gu Zhaoyuan's methods.

Is this the magical power that combines the way of formation and the way of sword?

This method made him feel slightly surprised, but he was not too surprised. After all, he was a participant in the previous battle, and he was also the one who fought for the quota in the eastern region.

Of course he won't take it lightly.

But what he was looking forward to more was Chen Cheng's real use of the sword.

Sure enough, when he saw Gu Zhaoyuan, he skipped the temptation and directly used his supernatural powers to fight.

Chen Cheng slowly sheathed his sword. Such an unconventional behavior caused the chessboard on the arena to slowly become turbulent, like ripples.

The next moment, an invisible sheath seemed to wrap around the hatchet.

I can't see clearly, I can't explain the feeling, but I can feel a scabbard emerging.

The chessboard seems to be aware of the crisis, and the chess pieces are constantly swimming in the air, and black and white are constantly intersecting.

Like the evolution of yin and yang, the black and white chess pieces are constantly entangled and swimming in the air. Mysterious fairy sounds sound, and the black and white chess pieces explode into spiritual mist in the air.

A wonderful world like a heavenly palace slowly unfolds in the void.

Chen Cheng drew his sword.

It was also at this moment that the figures of the two men reappeared, with long swords like mountains, overwhelming them with force.

The sword transforms the Yin and Yang Heavenly Palace and responds with subtlety.

Wonderful, wonderful.

Zuo Dodge only felt that this battle was basically the most exciting battle he had seen today.

Whether it was Chen Cheng's skill in raising swords or Gu Zhaoyuan's exquisite way, they all gave him a burst of insights, especially Gu Zhaoyuan's way, which seemed to be related to yin and yang.

The sharp sword energy kept wandering in the void.

Almost splitting the board down the middle.

At this moment, the majestic sharp energy and the Yin-Yang Heavenly Palace suddenly bloomed into the most wonderful scene.

The heavenly palace collapsed, the immortal sounds stagnated, and the immortal sculptures slowly withered.

The black and white chess pieces continued to explode, Gu Zhaoyuan's expression remained unchanged, and so did Chen Cheng.

Nearby, after Chen Cheng walked into the chessboard, the chess pieces came to life again, and a long sword swam, stabbing Chen Cheng's chest with the force of a thousand swords piercing his heart.

What made Gu Zhaoyuan's expression change was that Chen Cheng faced these long swords that pierced his heart without any movement or hesitation in the hand holding the sword.

Phew~

A sound like a long knife cutting through cloth resounded in the ring, and the heavenly palace, the chessboard, and the mountain-like knife all disappeared.

Zuo Dodge sighed, "What a pity."

Yan Chixia was slightly startled, "What's the pity?"

"Chen Cheng's sword is not well maintained. He does not have the courage to transcend life and death."

Yan Chixia shook his head, "Although I have always looked down on Xiao Gu, he has never lacked courage. Even if we fight again, I don't think Chen Cheng can win."

The results speak for themselves.

Chen Cheng lost, but he lost gloriously, and Gu Zhaoyuan won, but he also won miserably.

There were blood holes in Chen Cheng's chest, his energy was like a gossamer, and his spiritual power was weak. Although he didn't fall down, it was obvious that he was unable to move.

As for Gu Zhaoyuan, he was obviously slumped from his neck to his chest, but there was no expression on his face, just like when he took the stage before.

Zuo Daoqi couldn't help but look high on Gu Zhaoyuan.

It's quite a bit bloody.

"Little Gu is different from us. He is actually not a direct descendant of the previous generation. When you and I first met, he was still hanging around at the bottom of the Changzhou cultivation world."

"Although I don't want to admit it, in my heart, I have some admiration for Xiao Gu."

Zuo Dodge was not interested in this. He was not interested in knowing the past of a participant in the war from another side.

Soldiers from the Jin Dynasty came on stage and took away Chen Cheng, who could barely stand up. Gu Zhaoyuan declined the soldiers' help, but took a few steps forward and looked at Yan Chixia and Zuo Daoqi beside him.

At this time, in full view of the public, Zuo Daoqi would naturally not show any timidity.

He looked calm, showed an evil smile, and said softly, "You have the right to expect to stand on the stage with me."

As soon as he said this, he became arrogant. After all, Zuo Daoqi had just punched away a person who was looking forward to fighting him, and the battle between Gu Zhaoyuan and Chen Cheng was very valuable in the eyes of everyone.

Gu Zhaoyuan didn't think Zuo Daoqi was arrogant. He nodded slightly, and then a smile appeared on his pale face.

"I am flattered to be recognized by Lord Zuo."

Zuo Daoqi nodded indifferently.

The best view on the viewing platform in the distance is that Jiu Yanhou is sitting with an old man with a simple face.

This person is Xiong Xi's grandfather, Xiong Fu.

After watching the battle on the ring, Jiu Yanhou also saw the interaction between Zuo Daoqi and Gu Zhaoyuan. A smile appeared on his face, "Brother Xiong, what do you think of me, the genius of the imperial court?"

Xiong Fu gently stroked his beard, with a strange color on his face, and said, "The name of Lord Zuo is also very famous in our east. Being able to have such courage does not surprise me."

"How does that compare to Brother Bear's grandson?"

Jiuyanhou said softly.

Xiong Fu smiled and said nothing. He didn't want to conform to Jiu Yanhou for no reason, but he also had unlimited confidence in his grandson.

Xiong Xi, who was born with immortal bones, is the future of the Xiong family and the Wuyou Sect.

Jiuyanhou saw the ambition in his eyes and didn't care.

It wasn't until the final battle of the day at Tianyuan Terrace was over that Zuo Daoqi recovered his mind from being immersed in the battle. Although he didn't take action, it was very mentally draining.

After seeing the methods of these people, he inevitably put himself on both sides and started to simulate the battle again using the methods of both sides.

The results of many battles were reversed in his deductions. The battle process may still be difficult, but many times, he found that there were opportunities.

Especially the battle between Chen Cheng and Gu Zhaoyuan.

Constantly deducing, replacing both sides with oneself, using their own methods.

It's like playing a character duel game with a combat simulation, it's very enjoyable.

In the end, he finally came to the conclusion that in the battle between Chen Cheng and Gu Zhaoyuan, if it had been him, Chen Cheng would have still lost. He had insufficient knowledge and could do nothing. Although the method of raising a sword was exquisite, it was still not as good as a tens of thousands of years old sword. inheritance.

It was also through this deduction that he was able to deeply feel the power of his own Dharma lineage.

For the control of battle, the timing of using Taoism and the concentration of various powers.

At least, if Chen Cheng has his Dharma lineage, the battle with Gu Zhaoyuan will be six and four, Chen Cheng will be six and Gu Zhaoyuan will be four!

In fact, he did not have this kind of deduction ability before. This is because after he abandoned the dual cultivation method, the twelfth floor building became more stable, and a strange feeling of separation appeared in his soul.

Until then, the stands on all sides had become empty, and they were immersed in their own world. Neither Su Yuchan nor Yan Chixia could hear the words clearly.

"Brother Yan, what did you just say?"

"I said, Brother Zuo, do you want to go to my Eastern Embassy and have a look? You have many acquaintances in our previous territory." Yan Chixia helplessly repeated what he just said.

Zuo Daoqi looked at Yan Chixia with a strange expression, "Why are you going? To duel with your senior sister? No matter what, Xiao Gu is one of your people. Is it appropriate for Brother Yan to go over at this time?"

Yan Chixia's face straightened, "My senior sister is not such a stingy person."

"Xu Ning, the granddaughter of Gun King Xu Yuan, I am familiar with Xu Yuan." Zuo Daoqi glanced at him.

Yan Chixia was stunned for a moment, and the smile on his face disappeared, "Do you know Senior Sister?"

"Yan suddenly remembered that he had something important to do, so he left first."

After he finished speaking, without waiting for Zuo Dodge to speak, he took out the wine bottle in his hand and walked out while drinking.

But for some reason, he walked a little awkwardly.

Zuo Daoqi suddenly smiled and said to Su Yuchan on the side, "Chan'er, look at that person, he looks like a dog."

"You are the dog!"

Yan Chixia suddenly stopped in his steps, turned his head, shouted, and fled quickly.

Su Yuchan bulged her mouth, feeling that this friend of the young master was really a bit of a dog.

She was not a fool. Of course she could see what Yan Chixia was thinking. This guy wanted to trick the young master into going to the Eastern Embassy and let the senior sister named Xu Ning cause trouble for the young master.

Fortunately, the young master was wise and exposed his conspiracy.

Thinking of this, Su Yuchan once again set her sights on Zuo Daoqi, with lust in her eyes.

I just think the young master’s charm is so powerful.

Zuo Daoqi pinched her cheek and said, "Can you please stop being a nymphomaniac? If you do this again, I will eat you."

His voice was so low that only Su Yuchan could hear it.

Su Yuchan's shy face was flushed with embarrassment, and she didn't dare to raise her head to look at Zuo Daoqi.

"Okay, come to your senses, go back and rest!"

——

In the Jin Embassy.

Zuo Daoqi's face was red, and the magic elixir was outside his body. The red flames and golden thunder were constantly tempering the magic elixir.

A black heavy tower slowly swam and rotated in front of him, and the stars seemed to be fighting and colliding with each other.

It's like performing martial arts.

A lotus flower slowly spit out from the magic elixir.

"Boy, is it a little too late for you to practice the Demon Locking Tower again now?"

In the void, an invisible snake slowly emerged from the ring in Zuo Dodge's hand.

Ming Snake's tone was a little dissatisfied. After all, he had regarded the Demon Locking Tower as his home. Now Zuo Daoqi wanted to renovate it and kicked him out, which inevitably made him a little unhappy.

Zuo Daoqi ignored it, as if he hadn't heard it, and was concentrating on his own affairs.

In total, the Demon Locking Tower has been condensed into three levels, and he has not yet determined the attributes of each level.

When he was condensing the Demon Locking Tower before, he planned to build one world at a time.

The first layer is the base of the tower, which is the base layer of Taihuo soil, so there is no need for too many extraneous things.

As for the second level, the relic is used as a suppressing object to condense the layer of Buddha's light.

On the third level, he has also had the idea in the past few days to use the Lotus of Thunder and Fire as a suppressive object to condense... the martial arts level!

I originally planned to use the blood of desire from my previous practice as a suppressant, but now I have found that the Lotus of Thunder and Fire is more suitable.

After all, Ji Qingyun had previously killed the eight heavenly dragons conceived by the Lotus of Thunder and Fire. Fa Hai died and the power of the Fire Lotus was greatly reduced.

At least on the Tianyuan Stage, he didn't think this method would cause any trouble to the geniuses who were also at the twelfth level of climbing the tower.

The fire lotus needs to be reborn, so it is better to suppress it in the Demon Locking Tower, which will also make Fahai's resurrection easier.

Many days passed in a flash.

The Demon Locking Tower in front of Zuo Daoqi has changed slightly. Although the condensation of the first three levels has not been completely completed, it is almost there.

But what excited him even more.

He actually felt the gestation of magical seeds again, and there were some faint black and white patterns on the magical elixir in his body.

There was a feeling in his heart that the moment the ninth magical power seed took shape, it was the time for him to challenge the Yin God.

The moment he put away the Demon Locking Tower, the underworld snake turned into an afterimage and quickly escaped into the tower.

Zuo Daoqi smiled helplessly, put the tower away, and walked out.

Today will be the main match of the Tianyuan Festival!

He will also be able to draw his first-round opponent.

Which lucky guy will it be?

The sixth day of June.

Above Taihu Lake, the majestic Tianyuan Terrace looks even more majestic in the solemn atmosphere, with powerful qi machines crisscrossing above it.

There are a lot of troops in the imperial court today, and Yin Shen doesn't seem to be a strong one in today's situation.

As far as Zuo Daoqi could see, the Yang Shen could be counted in at least one palm. Visitors from all directions would come out with at least one True Lord of Yang Shen.

There were already many people sitting in the stands, including spectators from all sides.

Zuo Daoqi took a casual look and heard Xiao Bazi's voice coming from his ear.

"Sir, this way."

Zuo Dodge nodded, followed Xiao Bazi, and walked towards the contestant stage in the distance.

There, there was Lord Duan Li and Lord Jiu Yan... Likewise, there were Zhang Jiuling and Ji Zhengqian.

As arrogant as Ji Zhenggan is, he also appears to be extremely low-key today.

"When does it start?"

"The arbiter of the court has not yet arrived."

"Which strong person does Brother Wang think will be the judge?"
