Chapter 1174: Xu Fei’s Challenge
"Xu Fei, is there something you need?" Chen Tianlong asked indifferently.
"Haha, actually, there’s nothing much. Do you know why I’m here this time? I’ll tell you, I’m here for Lin Wushuang. After the trial, I’m going to marry her."
Xu Fei laughed heartily, intentionally provoking Chen Tianlong with talk of women.
"Have you eaten too much crap and let the toxicity cloud your brain, turning you into an idiot?"
Chen Tianlong glanced at him. "If you’re looking to die, just say so. I’ll help you. I didn’t kill you before because we had no deep-seated hatred, but now that you dare to have designs on Lin Wushuang, you’re simply tired of living."
"Good, very good. Do you dare to compete with us during the trial?" Xu Fei was somewhat furious. Since learning the Heart-Burning Divine Skill, no one had dared to talk to him like this.
"Boring, are you sick or something? I’m going to the trial, not to beat you up. If you want a beating, just say so, and I’ll give you one."
Chen Tianlong said calmly. This time, Chen Tianlong had to participate in the final trial, if only to utilize Evil Qi Body Refinement and grab a few pills, since the Great Rejuvenation Pill and Qi Gathering Pill are quite valuable.
Therefore, Chen Tianlong tried not to provoke unnecessary trouble, but Xu Fei’s incessant chatter annoyed him, prompting him to speak this way.
"Hmph, what? Do you really want to compete now? If you’re not convinced, let’s practice!" Xu Fei said directly.
"Are you sure?"
Chen Tianlong looked at Xu Fei with a strange expression. Was this guy out of his mind? Learning a few days of skills and daring to challenge him?
If they hadn’t ganged up on him that day, Chen Tianlong would have already fought him in the hotel. Now, inside the Celestial Pill Sect, did Xu Fei and the others dare to attack together?
"That’s right! But to avoid any resentment, you and I will stop before any serious harm is done!"
Xu Fei said, actually afraid that Chen Tianlong might suddenly unleash a big move and catch him off guard, which would be troublesome.
"Hehe."
Chen Tianlong laughed. Xu Fei provoked him but then became afraid. However, Chen Tianlong indeed didn’t want to kill Xu Fei. As much as he disliked Xu Fei, killing him might provoke the Pure Yang Daoist to find an excuse to cancel his trial qualification, which would be annoying. "Alright, I’ll go after I finish my meal."
"Fine!" Xu Fei gritted his teeth, realizing Chen Tianlong was indeed playing a role. But Xu Fei still sneered, as he had come prepared this time.
So, Xu Fei and Hao Shuai, Hao Kan, and others ordered some food and sat at a nearby table to eat.
Tan Batian quickly finished his meal, saw Xu Fei and others coming in, and left the dining hall.
He didn’t want to cause more trouble for Chen Tianlong. Weixiao had obviously already sided with Xu Fei; if trouble arose, would Chen Tianlong help or not?
However, just as Tan Batian left the dining hall, he heard others discussing Xu Fei. Apparently, other trial takers were chatting with the owner in the long white robe at that moment.
The owner in the long white robe had just reported Xu Fei’s arrogance to the Pure Yang Daoist, who said nothing. After all, the Celestial Pill Sect had some connections with the Wu Family.
Moreover, the Evil Qi of the attribute cultivators at the Celestial Pill Sect was stable, and they indeed needed Xu Fei’s assistance, so they couldn’t afford to offend him. The Pure Yang Daoist remained silent, advising the owner not to provoke them.
Chen Tianlong finished eating, glanced at Xu Fei, and said, "I’m done eating. Have you finished?"
"We just started eating, so of course, we can’t finish that quickly," Xu Fei said.
"Then I’ll leave. Consider it as you voluntarily forfeiting the challenge," Chen Tianlong said.
"You!" Xu Fei was infuriated. What kind of logic is that? I can wait for you, but you can’t wait for me?
Xu Fei, helpless, could only grit his teeth and say, "Fine, I can handle you without eating. Let’s go!"
Xu Fei, Hao Shuai, and Hao Kan walked ahead, while Weixiao and Funnel followed respectfully behind.
They all headed to a clearing behind the hotel, where Chen Tianlong said, "What are we competing in? You decide. You’re such a hassle, and we can’t kill each other; I love finishing off opponents."
"Talking about finishing off is too harsh; we’re all old acquaintances. How about this: We exchange a few moves, and if you lose, stop being so arrogant," Xu Fei said, waving his hand.
"Oh, what if you lose?" Chen Tianlong retorted.
"I won’t lose," Xu Fei said confidently.
Xu Fei’s words made Chen Tianlong chuckle. Some people are just laughably arrogant, but Chen Tianlong didn’t want to waste words on him.
"Alright, let’s start," Chen Tianlong said calmly, waving his hand.
Xu Fei’s expression tightened, and with a flick of his hand, a silver whip resembling a silver snake appeared in his grip. This was his Divine Artifact, the treasure of the Wu Family.
Chen Tianlong’s expression changed slightly, not expecting Xu Fei would bring out such a Divine Weapon!
In this era, Artifact Casting Sect had basically disappeared.
"Phantom Divine Whip!" Xu Fei shouted, and the whip flickered like a shadow, gleaming silver as it lashed at Chen Tianlong. The whip’s head seemed to multiply into thousands, causing chaos and unease.
The cultivation technique of the Heart-Burning Divine Skill is a heaven-defying technique; its name suggests burning the heart, and indeed it feels like a scorching pain when it hits.
The Illusionary Qi Xu Fei unleashed was not only powerful but also had a mind-bewitching aura.
This momentum could cause a cultivator standing before him to become delirious and entranced, like facing an infinite dream-like disorientation!
"Thud! Thud!"
Oddly, the first to faint wasn’t Chen Tianlong but Xu Fei’s lackeys. Except for Hao Shuai and Hao Kan, Duankongyi, Yang Kang, Weixiao, and Funnel all collapsed to the ground in convulsions like it was a seizure!
Hao Shuai, cultivating an advanced Heart Method from the Celestial Pill Sect, was less susceptible to this Demon Technique.
Hao Kan, while cultivating the Cold Ice Divine Palm, already developed a strong shield for his heart, making him resilient to such effects.
So, Hao Shuai and Hao Kan remained unaffected in front of Xu Fei, acting normally.
Even Lin Wushuang, Liu Ting, Bing Ruxue, and Du Nong felt a chilling apprehension but, for some reason, didn’t succumb to the illusion.
"Slap!"
When Xu Fei lashed the whip, Chen Tianlong caught it in his hand and, looking at Xu Fei, said indifferently, "What is this? What are you trying to do?"
"Huh?" Xu Fei glared wide-eyed in astonishment at Chen Tianlong.
Not only was Chen Tianlong not bedazzled, but he also grabbed Xu Fei’s Divine Weapon. What was going on?
It shouldn’t be possible!
His Phantom Divine Whip was supposed to affect any cultivator. Any cultivator should fall under the Enchanting Soul Technique, unless they weren’t a cultivator.
