Chapter 535: Grandmaster's Weakness
Chapter 535: Grandmaster's Weakness (Update 9)
quiet!
The crowd entering the temple suddenly became quiet, and everyone was looking at the top of the mountain in the distance.
Amidst the clouds and mist, the scent of the ancient temple made their hearts tremble. They could hardly suppress their desire to climb the mountain, and their breathing became rapid.
"That person is Li Yuan?"
Emperor Qian clenched the golden bell in his hand, his eyes darkened: "It is predicted that this person will assassinate me and all the Taoist masters fifty years later."
He glanced aside.
Long Yingchan, Fang Sanyun, Zen Master Dading and Taoist Yuanqing stood side by side, their expressions changed. Because of the clouds and mountains, they could not see who that person was.
"Rebel!"
Long Yingchan suddenly let out a loud roar, the sound was like thunder, and Fang Sanyun and others who were closest to him were caught off guard. They only felt their ears buzzing and their eardrums were almost broken.
"Evil creature, why don't you come down the mountain quickly!"
Long Yingchan roared with thunder, his voice shaking a hundred miles away and making everyone present frown.
"enough!"
Shen Qisheng's face was as gloomy as water, his eyes as cold as swords:
"Old bald donkey, are you going to tip off that evil creature?"
"Old bastard!"
Long Yingchan was furious, his long eyebrows raised up: "You dare to slander me without any evidence? Do you believe I will peel off your skin?"
"You try it?!"
Shen Qisheng was also very angry.
"enough!"
Seeing that the two were about to fight, some people quietly stepped back to make room, while others looked at them coldly. Emperor Qian frowned:
"If you two want to fight, then go out and fight!"
Beside him, Wan Zhuliu said nothing, just glanced at the two of them coldly, then strode towards the stone tablet at the foot of the mountain.
Seeing this, everyone present calmed down and quickly followed.
"The Monument of Li Yuan? Eastern Territory, 14,237? Wait, so many people have entered the Bafang Temple?!"
"The Eight Directions Temple is indeed from outer space! Could it be that there are other races other than humans?"
"Eastern Territory? Is there a Western Territory?"
At the foot of the mountain, there stood a stone tablet. Everyone gathered around. Most of the people present had been to the ruins sect and were familiar with the words on the stone tablet.
But what was revealed above surprised many people.
"Talent, Heaven-level?"
Emperor Qian's eyes darkened as he looked at Huang Longzi who was watching quietly from the side. The latter was very low-key and had said nothing since entering this place, but at this moment he could only answer:
"Ordinary, Dragon and Phoenix, Peerless, Eternal, Unrivaled, Heavenly Star, God and Demon... Heavenly Star, that is, the sixth level of talent."
Sixth level talent.
As he spoke, Huang Longzi felt his tongue go numb.
What are stars?
That is, a star with life may not produce a world-shaking genius in ten thousand years!
If such a genius were to enroll in the Poison Dragon Academy, he would be qualified to compete for the title of Daozi. And he could be sure that the one on the top of the mountain was no ordinary genius.
According to the information spread by the Wuxian Sect, when the Bafang Temple appeared in the past, more than one genius from various realms was turned away!
"Above all!"
"This kid is so talented!"
"No wonder he was able to open the Eight Directions Temple. So that's how it is, so that's how it is..."
Upon hearing about the sixth-level talent, everyone present talked about it, but no one was too surprised. After all, this was the only person who had opened the Eight Directions Temple in ten thousand years.
Before entering the temple, everyone agreed that it was extraordinary.
Listening to the discussion of the crowd, Huang Longzi silently turned his eyes away and walked up the mountain path. Looking at the blurry figure in the mist, he was a little dazed:
'This person may be the greatest fortune in this world, except for the Eight Directions Temple!'
Star rating...
"Huang Longzi."
Suddenly, a voice came.
Huang Longzi's heart trembled. The person who spoke was wearing a black cloak. The cloak was very special and seemed to be able to sense things. At first glance, even the person's face could not be seen.
"Dharma Master."
Huang Longzi bowed slightly. He was as wary of this man as Wan Zhuliu.
When he first entered this place, he was extremely shocked and fearful that in this world isolated by the Eight Directions Temple, someone dared to collect incense offerings in the name of "God".
Those who know the names of gods such as 'Thousand-eyed Bodhisattva', 'Red-haired Buddha', 'Hundred-armed Taoist', 'Sword Spirit God', 'Thousand Yin Dharma Master' and still dare to impersonate them, their courage is beyond words.
And as far as he knew, the source of all this came from the cloaked man in front of him.
"Can I borrow the General Knowledge Ball?"
"Ok?"
Hearing the voice transmission, Huang Longzi's heart sank. He was certain that the Thousand-Eyed Magician under the cloak also came from outer space, otherwise he would never know the existence of the General Knowledge Ball.
He wanted to refuse, but when the words came to his lips, he felt a chill down his spine.
"Brother Huang Long."
At this time, Wan Zhuliu's voice sounded, and Huang Longzi felt as if he had been pardoned. He bowed to the Thousand-Eyed Dharma Master and quickly walked towards the foot of the mountain.
After some noisy discussions, some people started to try to climb the mountain.
He was an old man with white hair and beard, and already looked old. His name was Zhang Xuandan. He was a master of many years, a minister of three dynasties, and the ancestor of the Zhang family in Shendu.
He is also one of the few masters here.
At this moment, under the gaze of Emperor Qian and Wan Zhuliu, he swallowed the elixir, his body trembled, his hair and beard turned from white to black, and a ferocious armor appeared all over his body.
"Your Majesty, I am leaving now."
Zhang Xuandan bowed and stepped onto the stairs.
With a humming sound, everyone at the foot of the mountain frowned, feeling an indescribable powerful energy, like the sea and the sky, suddenly descending.
"Puff!" In just a moment, dirty blood spurted out from Zhang Xuandan's mouth and nose, and the god-level armor on his body made a crackling sound. In less than a few moments, he had fallen back to the foot of the mountain.
A mouthful of blood spurted out and the man fell on his back, as if he had suffered a serious injury.
"Mr. Zhang!"
Emperor Qian's expression changed and he stepped forward to support him.
A Tiangang-level Grandmaster only climbed one level? !
All the masters and grand masters at the foot of the mountain path changed their expressions, and when they looked up at the top of the mountain, their eyes were full of disbelief.
The one who gets a blood transfusion reaches the top, while the one who gets Tiangang stops at one level?
“There’s a stone tablet!”
Long Yingchan had sharp eyes and caught a glimpse of a newly rising stone tablet.
[Zhang Xuandan, bone age 193...]
[Realm: Tiangang]
【Talent: Dragon and Phoenix】
[Divine Gift: Part 2]
[Overall rating: poor (low)]
"Inferior, even worse?!"
Seeing the words on the stone tablet, everyone present changed their expressions:
"Bone age?!"
Long Yingchan's eyelids also twitched.
For those present, whether it was a test of one's physique and comprehension or a battle of martial arts, they were more or less confident, but the bone age...
He glanced at the fifteen people present and found that the only one who looked to be under a hundred years old was Huang Longzi!
"Bone age?"
Huang Longzi was delighted, but when he noticed everyone's gaze, his face darkened like everyone else's: "I really don't know about this."
Bone age...
Everyone looked at Huang Longzi with an unfriendly tone.
Yan Tianxiong at the back glanced at the Thousand-Eyed Master, and his eyes changed. He had personally witnessed the scene of the Master "breaking out of the shell" from the statue.
This……
Yan Tianxiong's eyes froze, but he saw the intense gaze under the cloak.
"Don't you feel it?"
Seeing everyone's unfriendly looks, Huang Longzi's heart skipped a beat and he quickly spoke:
"In the Eight Directions Temple, you should not be affected by the separation between heaven and earth. You should be able to perceive the changes in your own vitality!"
"Um?!"
After hearing this, Long Yingchan concentrated his mind and observed quietly. He faintly felt a faint vitality coming from nowhere and flowing into his limbs and bones.
Although it is weak, it continues.
……
The clouds on Bafang Mountain are not generated by water vapor. Li Yuan couldn't see the top of the mountain clearly when he climbed it before. Now that he is standing on the top of the mountain, he naturally can't see the bottom of the mountain.
Only fifteen figures could be vaguely seen, some holding knives, some carrying swords.
"Well, one person provided me with a year, and it matched."
Li Yuan narrowed his eyes, but could not see clearly who the person was. He could only guess in his heart: "The spying on the God's sacrifice not only exposed me, but also exposed the news that Wan Zhuliu had not returned from the temple for fifty years.
As long as the imperial court is not stupid and does not want to go to war with the Dao Sect, then at least half of the Dao Sect leaders should be brought along..."
Master Li Dao is best at judging others by his own experience.
If he were Emperor Qian Wan Zhuliu, he would have to clear away future troubles before entering the temple.
"Someone else came in?"
The little female dragon nervously looked over, shocked and bewildered: "How could so many people come in?"
"Don't be nervous, they can't get up."
Li Yuan was very calm, as he had expected this. But since he reached the top of the mountain, he was no longer so anxious. He reached the top of the mountain because of his 'bone age of twenty-seven' and his 'talent transformed to the celestial level within a month of entering the temple'.
If the court could find someone who was equal to him, he wouldn't have to rely on following him into the temple.
Therefore, Li Yuan was very calm.
He just paced along the side of the mountain, observing intently, trying to see who were entering the temple this time.
During the days on the top of the mountain, Li Yuan was not idle. He did not try the "temple test", but other than that, he walked around everywhere on the top of the mountain.
Also tried going down the mountain.
Just as climbing the mountain is extremely difficult, descending the mountain is also extremely difficult.
He tried to separate the blood and go down the mountain, but he could not withstand the terrible pressure of the ten thousand steps and was shattered into pieces in an instant.
"The one holding the knife should be Wan Zhuliu, and who's the one carrying the sword? Shen Qisheng?"
When Li Yuan squinted his eyes and looked around, he suddenly heard a sound coming from the bottom of the mountain, as if someone was shouting, but when it reached the top of the mountain, there was only a "hum" sound.
"Master Long?"
Although it was just a humming sound, Li Yuan was very familiar with Taoist Long's voice, and he recognized it after a quick comparison.
"Master Long really entered the temple!"
Li Yuan changed his mind and took out an Eight Directions Temple token. He couldn't go down the mountain from the top of the mountain, but that didn't mean he couldn't go down the mountain.
By using this token, he can consume twenty days of stay time and move to the foot of the mountain or into the passage.
"Move to the passage. If anything goes wrong, immediately use the Spirit Puppet's Heart to choose Gate Puppet No. 23..."
With a plan in mind, Li Yuan arrived at the passage in a flash. In the narrow passage, Dong Twenty-three was still sitting with his back to him. Li Yuan felt relieved and walked towards the end.
He did not go through the door, but looked carefully. Here, he saw Master Long at the foot of the mountain.
"Four Taoist masters have come... Emperor Qian, Wan Zhuliu, Huang Longzi... Wow, more than half of them are Grandmasters!"
