Chapter 136 Someone is spreading rumors, she didn't.
Hua Li's hand remained in the same position as when she was cursing the Illusion Platform, except that her fingers had changed from pointing at the void to pointing at Feng Ningning.
What does it mean to meet your nemesis on a narrow road?
The second round of the Illusionary Stage eliminated the original nine contestants, reducing the number to six.
This also means that this will be their final decisive battle today.
Those who hadn't initially paid much attention to Huali suddenly found themselves in a completely new world, turning their attention to this group with great interest.
After two rounds, Feng Ningning, one of the most popular contestants, was fleeing in a sorry state in the Illusionary Stage. Although she successfully severed her inner demons, she was still in a sorry state.
On the contrary, Huali, who had never been favored by everyone, was clean except for her ponytail being a little loose after rolling around in the spirit stones.
A ruthless glint flashed in Feng Ningning's eyes. She knew that dealing with the other party through ordinary means would probably not work. Intentionally, she wanted to stall for time, so she smiled charmingly, "Little sister, we meet again..."
"Ksitigarbha Entanglement, emerge!"
The rock dragon burst from the ground, circled halfway in the air, and swooped down towards Feng Ningning, directly silencing the half-finished sentence she was about to say.
Although TV dramas are all lies, there is a truth to them: if you can take action, don't just talk!
We don't even know each other, so calling each other so affectionately must mean no good!
Feng Ningning flicked out a purple silk ribbon infused with spiritual energy from her sleeve. After colliding with the rock dragon, she staggered back several steps and barely managed to regain her footing. She was furious. "Sister hasn't finished speaking yet!"
Huali didn't listen at all. She successfully made up for the stamina she lost in the first round of the capture-the-flag battle in the second round of the illusion stage. Now she has inexhaustible energy.
"Ksitigarbha Entanglement, emerge!"
If one Rock Dragon isn't enough, just get another one. The key is to rely on one trick to succeed!
Seeing that the other party was unmoved, Feng Ningning cursed inwardly and began to take the initiative!
"Bang!"
The purple silk grazed the back of the rosewood tree and landed on the ground. The hard rock surface shattered with a sound, and the flying debris was blocked by the transparent barrier.
Despite being at the peak of the Golden Core stage, Feng Ningning still possessed considerable strength. As Hua Li retreated, another deadly purple shadow, like a venomous python, swiftly coiled around her ankle.
As Karin lost control of her body, she was thrown high into the air and slammed hard onto the ground!
"Regenerate the Breath of Earth, rise!" The barrier formed a protective shield from bottom to top, and as Huali smashed it down, she grabbed the purple silk with her wrist and pulled hard.
Unexpectedly, this little girl was so strong. Just as Feng Ningning staggered forward, she shouted, "Eight Desolations Exhausted, Trapped!"
Countless pebbles rose from the ground and instantly coalesced in the air, shooting towards Feng Ningning like meteors!
The cultivators watching below were all excited. They hadn't expected the two female cultivators to be so passionate in their match, with not a single unnecessary word.
"What is the name of this female cultivator in red? Do you know?"
"The magical artifacts she used were also quite rare."
"I can go and learn from you after the trial is over."
"Haha, fellow Daoist, I'm afraid your real intention isn't in the bar. Count me in!"
Shen Yu crossed his arms and looked at the girl in the center of the ring. Everyone else saw only her moves and appearance, but he saw a kind of clear, unsettling quality honed through hardship.
Those eyes were like resilient grass that could not be broken by the wind, possessing an extreme clarity that remained undisturbed by emotions.
Changliu had been carefully observing the young master's expression. When he saw the look of appreciation in Shen Yu's eyes, he silently added Huali to his list of people to keep an eye on.
The young master had been fighting the Xuan Tie Cavalry since he was fourteen, and having grown up surrounded by men, he rarely paid any attention to women, let alone bothered to even lift his eyelids. This little girl who loved to perch on walls was the first person to catch his eye.

Feng Ningning dodged the attack in a sorry state, and when she looked up again, there were bloodstains on her beautiful face. She stuck out her red tongue and rolled the blood droplets into her mouth. "Little sister, are you jealous of your older sister's beauty and deliberately trying to kill me?"
Huali remained silent, only launching attacks.
She was hungry.
She hasn't had a second meal since seven in the morning, and it's already dark. Even the donkeys in the production team don't do this.
Fortunately, Tang Wanwan promised to take her to broaden her horizons, so she had to have a good meal.
Feng Ningning gritted her teeth in hatred.
The other party is unresponsive; neither delaying tactics nor provocations work.
If it were a man, it would be fine; she could easily use her charm. But this was just a little girl!
But that didn't matter. As a glint flashed in Feng Ningning's eyes, she suddenly pried open half of a red lotus with her fingers. The petals unfolded layer by layer, exuding a sweet and subtle fragrance.
"The Tribulations of Love, the Third Layer".
As the sweet fragrance wafted on the breeze, Huali immediately held her breath, but the scent still permeated every nook and cranny. Dozens of purple silk ribbons burst forth from her sleeves, enveloping Feng Ningning and Huali in an impenetrable cocoon.
The crimson lotus exploded into a crimson mist before Huali's eyes, and Feng Ningning's voice carried a poisonous laugh, "Little sister, can you see the person hidden in your heart?"
Upon hearing this, Lian Zhuo, the Demon King, and Wen Jin, whose body was still connected to the water mirror in Xi Wu's hand, all tensed up at the same time.
"Isn't this 'Love Thread Tribulation' a technique of the Joyful Union Sect? How come Feng Ningning, a rogue cultivator, knows it too?"
"Fellow Daoist, could you elaborate?"
"This is a type of bewitching magic. Those who are affected will mistake the other person for their beloved. Even if they know it's fake, they will still hesitate for a moment when attempting to assassinate them."
In a duel between masters, the worst thing to do is hesitate.
*
The red lotus was sickeningly sweet, and the pear tree, already hungry, felt even more nauseous at the sudden smell.
The person I'm hiding in my heart may not be seen, but I could make a long list of the dishes I crave.
"The Buddha's relic prison, freeze!"
After immobilizing Feng Ningning, Huali mercilessly drew her dagger, "What are you babbling about? Let's fight!" As the dagger pierced her shoulder, the barrier shattered with a crash.
Feng Ningning took a few steps back, staring at the clear-eyed girl, and asked in shock, "Why didn't you fall for it? The person you met in the woods that day wasn't your lover?"
Feng Ningning's tone was sharp, her questioning firm and unequivocal. She had no idea that her short sentence would resonate like a thunderclap to those who were paying attention!
Tang Wanwan was terrified. That womanizer Hua Li went on a date with the Demon King behind the Buddha's back? When?
She wanted to dance the tango on the spot and reach out to cover the Buddha's ears to beg him to stop listening, but she didn't have the guts at all.
The Buddhist saint, who was usually aloof and cold, paused slightly in his hand as he played with the prayer beads. His compassionate and peaceful face showed an unusual stiffness, almost blank.
Unable to bear seeing her idol disappointed, Tang Wanwan angrily shot at the vixen who had ruined someone else's beautiful love!
This was quite alarming, because the fox spirit's face was also ashen.
Even from this distance, she could clearly feel the chilling aura emanating from the other person.
Tang Wanwan, who instantly noticed the key point, gasped.
Besides the Demon King, this damned ghost actually secretly recruited other people?
Xi Wu stood below the arena like a phone stand, clearly hearing the low laughter that seemed to come from the depths of hell reflected in the water mirror.
In the water mirror, Wen Jin's thin lips curled into a smileless arc, each word like an icicle falling: "Excellent."
