Chapter 40: The Fire-Gathering Bottle Shows Its Power (Seeking Collection, Recommendation, and Investment)
For most Qi Refining cultivators, due to their limited mana, the means they can take to greatly improve their combat effectiveness are limited.
Even if they get some treasures by chance, they will not use them in this kind of competition.
Therefore, in most cases, at the Qiuli Fruit Meeting, cultivators can only rely on their own cultivation and real strength.
On the No. 8 ring, after Sun Mingzeng and the other two bowed to each other, the battle immediately began.
The first to strike is the strongest, and the last to strike will suffer. Sun Mingzeng decisively sacrificed an iron ruler. With the support of sufficient mana, it turned into a stream of khaki light, and fell down from top to bottom at the opponent's head at a lightning speed.
As the opponent, the Qi Refining Level 7 cultivator, his combat experience was obviously not rich and had some defects, and he did not seem to be fully prepared for the battle.
Facing the obviously powerful first-grade iron ruler, a look of panic suddenly appeared on his face. He hurriedly offered a black wooden shield and transformed into a black light curtain to block his head.
As the two magic weapons collided, a loud noise came, and the black light curtain did not last long. After a shake, it completely dissipated.
The black wooden shield's bearing capacity was also limited, and it was smashed directly onto the ring. At this time, Sun Mingzeng had already offered the second magic weapon, a first-grade medium-grade flying sword, and moved sideways from another direction to the opponent quickly.
The cultivator of the seventh level of Qi training, with the buffer time gained by the wooden shield, has stabilized his mind again. He swung a long whip fiercely, and a spiritual light entangled with the flying sword.
The main body of the long whip was fighting with the iron ruler. The black wooden shield was also full of energy again, and transformed into a black light, wrapping the owner again, forming a circle of encirclement.
Sun Mingzeng showed a hint of ridicule on his face, and a strong yellow panic appeared on his hands. He suddenly slapped the ring.
The whole ring was shaking violently, and the opponent at the center took on most of the power. The first-grade earth-attributed earthquake spell could directly bypass the defensive magic weapon and attack the cultivator's body.
The same first-grade magic spell, when performed by a cultivator at the ninth level of Qi training, was obviously more powerful.
"Clang" Under the effect of the spell, the cultivator at the seventh level of Qi training completely lost the power to resist. The two magic weapons fell directly on the ring without the supply of magic power. The iron ruler and the flying sword were located at the cultivator's head and throat.
"Pingyang County, Sun Family, Sun Mingzeng wins" After the referee announced the result, Sun Mingzeng took back the two magic weapons.
"This fellow Daoist has given way."
"Thank you, fellow Daoist Sun, for showing mercy. You are a Daoist with a high level of cultivation. I am convinced of my defeat."
In the first round of battles, except for a few cultivators with similar cultivation, each ring ended relatively quickly.
In the first round of battles, including Sun Mingzeng, there were two powerful ninth-level Qi training cultivators who appeared and quickly defeated their opponents.
Most of the remaining cultivators did not show their best tricks, so the reference significance of each fight was not strong.
The second round of fights began soon. No. 35 was also on the eighth ring. The opponent was of similar strength to him, a seventh-level Qi training cultivator.
"Pingyang County, Sun family, Sun Mingsheng meets fellow Daoist"
"Hongliu County, Tan family, Tan Pingyun meets fellow Daoist Sun"
Hongliu County is located in the northwest of Zhongshan County. It is famous for the large number of first-level middle and lower-quality willow trees growing in the territory.
Every family here cultivates a large number of red willow spiritual trees of different grades, and relies on selling these spiritual trees in exchange for various cultivation resources.
The uses of spiritual wood are naturally very wide. Red willow wood can be used to refine magic tools, and red willow bark can be used to make talisman paper.
Hongliu County is famous for its wood-attributed cultivators. It is also good at cultivating various spiritual medicines, and some relatively rare spiritual medicines often flow out.
It is said that here, even if it is just a micro-family with the inheritance of Qi Refining cultivators, there is a spiritual medicine garden that is carefully cultivated and inherited.
"The fight begins" After the two people took their positions, the referee gave an order.
Sun Mingsheng naturally would not hold back. The first-level middle-grade flame sword, covered with a layer of hot fiery red spiritual light, went straight to Tan Yunping's neck.
As both are Qi Refining Level 7 cultivators, there is not too obvious a gap in strength between the two sides. Tan Yunping sprinkled several seeds with his hands, and thorns quickly grew on the ring and quickly woven into a layer of wooden fences.
After forming a layer of defense, Tan Yunping waved his hands forward, and wooden arrows about the thickness of his arms appeared out of thin air, turning into a rain of arrows and attacking him.
This cultivator from Hongliu County seemed to be quite keen on wood-attributed magic, and had never used a magic weapon.
With a chirp, a vivid and smooth firebird appeared in the air. Compared with the middle stage of Qi training, the power of the firebird magic this time has improved significantly.
The firebird's wings waved violently in the air, and flames flew up, colliding directly with the wooden arrows in the air without fear.
He was also quite skilled in the use of magic. As a qualified talisman master, this was just an entry requirement.
The flames and wooden arrows collided in the air, turning into puffs of white smoke and dust that rose into the air, almost drowning the entire arena.
At this time, the Flame Sword still had not broken through the thorns. With the growth of his cultivation, it was obviously unable to meet his needs.
Among the five elements, fire overcomes wood. According to common sense, Sun Mingsheng should be able to easily pierce and destroy the blocking thorns, and the current confrontation should not have occurred.
"Hmph" Tan Yunping snorted coldly, obviously not satisfied with the current battle. With a wave of his hands, a wooden thorn flashed and disappeared completely in the air.
Sun Mingsheng just felt the danger approaching, and rolled over on the arena without caring about his image, and just dodged the attack.
"Wood Thorn" had a deep wound on his left arm that was bleeding, and a sinister look appeared on his face. He threw his hands, and a red bottle floated in the air.
Sun Mingsheng cast a spell, and a thick stream of red fire gushed out, hitting Tan Yunping in an unstoppable manner.
In this kind of battle, it is obviously not enough to rely on a first-level middle-grade flame sword alone. The Fire-Gathering Bottle is the means he used to win in the early stage, and this is also the first time it has been officially unveiled.
The surging fire river exudes scorching heat, directly smashing the defense layer formed by thorns and rushing straight to Tan Yunping.
In the scorching fire river, there are also fire snakes constantly twisting their bodies in it, and a series of invisible hisses show the desire to fight.
This attack is the combination of the Fire-Gathering Bottle and the Fire Snake Technique, and it can also be said to be Sun Mingsheng’s strongest attack at present.
Relatively speaking, the talisman, which is more flexible in battle, is not suitable for the first round of battle. This is the killer used to win in the end.
