The Fire Stone, in layman's terms, is an energy stone that originated from the beginning of chaos between heaven and earth.

The place of origin usually exists in a volcano, and is formed bit by bit through the tempering of fire.

Its value lies not in its powerful energy, but in the traces left on the surface of the stone after endless years of fire erosion.

This kind of trace contains the profound laws of the origin of fire. If one can comprehend it, one can understand the advanced state of mind of fire.

"If you don't want to, forget it."

Seeing the bald old man hesitating, Ying Yuanzi grasped the other party's weakness.

He then changed the subject and deliberately provoked her, "It seems that you have no confidence in Lu Chengtian's chances of winning. You were just bragging just now."

"Brother Ying, you..."

Upon hearing this, the bald old man's face suddenly turned ugly.

Being an experienced and shrewd man, he could naturally hear Ying Yuanzi's provocation.

Although he knew it, this situation undoubtedly brought back all his previous criticisms of Tianyan Academy and Lin Hao's mocking remarks.

"Why not?"

The bald old man snorted coldly, then changed his mind and sneered: "However, that also depends on whether Brother Ying can come up with chips of corresponding value."

Ying Yuanzi looked indifferent, as if he had expected the other party to say that.

He didn't waste any words. As he flipped his hand, a pill suddenly appeared in his palm.

But the pill was emerald green all over, about the size of a thumb, and pure in color.

On it, there are faint spiritual patterns, emitting a mysterious spiritual fragrance.

“This is… the Holy Spirit Pill?!”

Seeing this, the bald old man's eyes lit up and he exclaimed.

"That's right."

Ying Yuanzi nodded calmly, then flipped his hand and put it back into the storage ring.

This Holy Spirit Pill is obviously extremely precious to him.

Because this pill was a top-grade pill condensed by the Blind Sword Saint a while ago and specially given to Ying Yuanzi.

He has been stuck in the Half-Step Saint realm for decades. At this age, the chances of him breaking through the threshold with his own abilities are slim.

And with this Holy Spirit Pill, you can leverage the force to impact your realm.

Therefore, I plan to practice in seclusion after this Hundred Colleges Competition.

The fact that he dared to make a bet now undoubtedly showed that he had great confidence in Lin Hao.

"Okay, deal!"

The bald old man has also been staying in the Half-Step Saint Realm for a long time. The power of the Holy Spirit Pill is too strong, even though its value cannot be compared with the Fire Source Stone.

Just like that, the bet between the two old men was officially reached.

At this time, the fourth level of the battle arena.

On the vast battlefield, afterimages kept flashing.

Every time it flashes, the sound of metal clashing can be heard.

The speed of the two is almost equal.

Just as the outside audience commented, Lin Hao just kept defending and was always suppressed by Lu Chengtian.

The fight in the field became more and more intense.

The sound of sword energy colliding with spear energy continued to ring out, and the sound was extremely terrifying.

"Bang!"

Then, a crisp collision sound was heard, and as the energy surged, the two figures retreated violently.

Lin Hao was panting slightly, and his clothes were torn in many places.

Judging from the marks, it was obviously cut by a sword.

However, although the clothes were torn, there was no cut on the flesh.

Because in the battle with Lu Chengtian just now, his speed was indeed a little slower.

Fortunately, Lin Hao's practical experience has gradually become more sophisticated through training.

Every time the long sword was about to cut through his clothes, he would dodge it without any danger, which led to the current situation.

Although he looks disheveled on the surface, he is actually unharmed.

"Not bad. Compared to your previous opponents, your strength is barely acceptable."

Lu Chengtian held the black heavy sword in his hand, looked at Lin Hao, and said coldly: "It's worth my serious effort."

Lin Hao raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said lightly: "You are not bad."

improvise?

Hearing this, Lu Chengtian narrowed his eyes slightly, and a chilling chill surged in his eyes.

It seemed that he was quite unhappy with what Lin Hao said.

"Then I'll let you see how strong this makeshift one is!"

Lu Chengtian would never allow his abilities to be challenged.

"Killing Field!"

With a cold snort, Lu Chengtian's spiritual power burst out, and the murderous aura instantly covered the entire battlefield.

His sword art is based on killing.

Constantly accumulate murderous intent in battle, thereby increasing one's own sword intent.

This kind of cultivation method is extremely brutal. Only by continuously killing people can his strength become stronger.

Woohoo! –!!

As the killing field was unleashed, the entire battlefield was instantly filled with a scarlet glow, and cold winds blew, like the roar of a ghost, which was frightening.

The wind was extremely cold. Even though Lin Hao's blood and energy were abundant, he felt extremely depressed in such an environment, and the pores all over his body contracted slightly.

Lin Hao even discovered that this cold wind seemed to be able to affect his mind. While his vision was blurred, countless ghostly creatures crawled out of the surrounding stone pillars.

"In my killing field, you will have only one ending."

Lu Chengtian's eyes were filled with grimness as he stared at Lin Hao. He said in a cold and arrogant voice, "That means death!"

As he spoke, his body slowly floated up into the air, and the black sword in his hand was surrounded by a scarlet light.

It was a materialized light condensed from murderous aura, emitting overwhelming murderous intent!

"I don't think so."

A sneer appeared on Lin Hao's lips, and the reincarnation martial spirit was instantly activated. His eyes turned into black and white vortices, directly crushing the illusions of those ghosts and monsters.

At the same time, the dark realm was also activated.

boom!

In an instant, black light surged around him, and he suddenly established his own domain in the killing field, resisting the cold murderous aura that made people feel uncomfortable.

Samsara Eye?

Dark Realm?!

Seeing this scene, Lu Chengtian's eyes darkened slightly, and a solemn look finally emerged on his cold and arrogant face.

He seemed to have thought of something, staring at Lin Hao intently, and asked, "Is your name Lin Hao?"

Lin Hao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, pretending to be arrogant and said lightly: "Unfortunately, I don't know who you are."

The implication is undoubtedly that the other party is a nobody.

Hearing this, Lu Chengtian, who had always been very proud, suddenly had a dark look on his face.

Then he sneered and said, "I heard that you are the number one of the younger generation of Tianyan Academy. I have long wanted to compete with you."

"We met today, it's God's will, giving me the opportunity to use you as a stepping stone."

As he spoke, he raised the heavy black sword in his hand and pointed it directly at Lin Hao, full of provocation.

Stepping stone?

A hint of coldness flashed across Lin Hao's eyes, and he said calmly: "Unfortunately, you encountered the fatal stone this time!"

After saying that, Lin Hao suddenly rushed out.

This time, he actually took the initiative to attack, and the spear in his hand stabbed towards Lu Chengtian with unmatched thundering force.
