Chapter 358: Humility

"What the hell is this golden elixir? You've talked a lot but the conclusion remains the same!" Lu Yang said angrily.

"Why are you talking so much? I'm just analyzing the situation for you." The Immortal Fairy wanted to clear the name of her golden elixir.

After all, she is the founder of the Invincible Pill and cannot tolerate Lu Yang slandering the Invincible Pill.

Just as Lu Yang and the Immortal Fairy were discussing heatedly whether the Invincible Pill was useful or not, Zhou Fangge seized the opportunity to take action.

"kill!"

Zhou Fangge took out four small flags from his arms and threw them into the air. The four small flags were located in the four directions of east, south, west and north, surrounding Lu Yang!

Lu Yang felt a darkness above his head. He looked up and saw a small hill appearing above his head, falling at an alarming speed.

"The power to move mountains!" Lan Ting saw the magical power Zhou Fangge used. It was not easy for even a Jindan stage cultivator to perform this magical power. Zhou Fangge used four small flags to perform a magical power that surpassed his own realm.

Zhou Fangge was not careless at all and used one of his three trump cards right away, which was enough to suppress a Jindan stage cultivator and make him unable to move.

Faced with the approaching hill, Lu Yang responded with his ancient magical powers.

"Swallow the sky and the earth!"

Lu Yang opened his mouth, swallowed the mountain, and burped.

"It's the Taotie clan's art of swallowing the sky and devouring the earth!" Bai Ming looked incredulous. This was the foundation of the Taotie clan, but he didn't expect that Lu Yang had learned it.

Compared to the magical power to move mountains, the difficulty of learning Swallowing the Sky and Devouring the Earth is several levels higher.

Bai Ming heard that even a pure-blooded Taotie could not master this kind of bloodline magical power in the Jindan stage.

"I knew Lu Yang had more than one ancient magical power!"

Yan Tianzhi narrowed his eyes slightly. He was indeed a cultivator who could challenge opponents above his level. He even learned the magical power of swallowing the sky and devouring the earth.

He can also swallow the sky and devour the earth, but he just uses tricks. He is not as good as Lu Yang who learned it through his own ability.

Zhou Fangge didn't expect that his carefully prepared trump card could be cracked so easily.

"As expected of a disciple of the Immortal Sect, but I have been prepared!"

Zhou Fangge clasped his palms together, and a dazzling white light burst out between his palms. The sound was so piercing that the people in the audience had to cover their ears.

A ball of blazing lightning gathered in Zhou Fangge's heart. The lightning shone on Zhou Fangge's face, and the shadow on his face made Zhou Fangge look eerie.

"This is palm thunder." The Immortal Fairy recognized this spell.

"This is a spell developed by Ying Tianxian. He used it when I challenged Ying Tianxian. He just wanted to catch me off guard, so he condensed the spell on the palm of his foot when he kicked me. Later, this move spread out, and I don't know what changes it went through, but it became the palm of the hand."

“…Maybe it’s for aesthetics.”

While Lu Yang was speaking, the palm thunder fell down and hit Lu Yang.

boom--

The palm thunder exploded with terrifying energy, smoke and dust filled the air, and the aftermath swept across the entire arena, even affecting Prince Yan and others who were fighting.

Zhou Fangge was panting with exhaustion. Palm Thunder was a spell he inherited from the Tribulation Period. His spiritual energy was ten times that of people at the same level. In order to cast Palm Thunder, he drained all of his spiritual power.

"If you take this move, don't say you are in the early stage of Golden Core, even if you are in the middle stage of Golden Core you will be either dead or injured!" Zhou Fangge sneered. This is the price of underestimating him.

"Oh, really? I was wondering why it didn't hurt." Lu Yang's voice came from the smoke and dust, making Zhou Fangge shudder.

Just as Zhou Fangge was getting ready to face Lu Yang's attack, Lu Yang appeared from behind and patted Zhou Fangge's shoulder with a smile.

Zhou Fangge instinctively jumped forward to dodge, but Lu Yang's hand was like a mountain, causing Zhou Fangge to fall to one side and unable to stand steadily.

Zhou Fangge swallowed the Qi-recovering pill and looked at Lu Yang warily: "As expected of a disciple of the Immortal Sect, this can't hurt you, so I won't hold back."

The third trump card comes at a heavy price, enough to compete with the late Jindan stage, but for the sake of victory, Zhou Fangge feels he can give it a try.

Just when Zhou Fangge made up his mind to use his last trick, his body suddenly lost weight and the scene in front of him changed so fast that it became blurry. It was Lu Yang who grabbed his sleeve and threw him out of the field.

Prince Yan and others who were fighting fiercely were helpless when they saw Zhou Fangge, who was full of confidence before the battle, was easily defeated by Lu Yang.

How dare you say you can defeat Lu Yang? He hasn't used his full strength yet. Didn't you see that he never raised his hand holding the sword?

Then, they heard desperate words: "Haha, Lao Meng is not finished yet, you are playing so slowly, add me!"

Lanting and the other two couldn't help but close their eyes, not wanting to see this scene.

Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou are both capable of competing against those in the early Nascent Soul stage. Beating a group of Foundation Establishment stage cultivators is easier than beating children.

When Prince Yan and others saw Lu Yang joining the battle, they threw aside the pre-war division of labor and fled separately.

Instead of fighting head-on, it is better to compete to see who can run faster or who has better luck, and be the last one to leave and get the third place.

The audience saw Lu Yang and the other two, who were laughing very happily, chasing after Master Yan and the others like chickens. They felt that the two were not good people and started to talk about them.

"Why do you feel that Prince Yan and the others are so pitiful?"

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

"That's right, Jindan is building his foundation, and he's smiling so happily, he doesn't even care about his face anymore."

"Brother Meng, I'm from the Yan family of Qingzhou. We're both from aristocratic families!" Prince Yan introduced himself and tried hard to build a closer relationship. As they were both from aristocratic families, he had long heard of Meng Jingzhou's name.

Meng Jingzhou said solemnly, "This is a competition. There is no distinction between high and low. How can status determine victory or defeat? Holding back on you is an insult to the competition. You will bring shame to the Yan family by doing this."

Prince Yan asked cautiously, "Brother Meng, if you, with your Jindan stage cultivation, participate in this kind of competition, won't it bring shame to the Meng family?"

"Of course not. I've already run away from home."

Then Prince Yan was kicked down.

When Gu Qisheng jumped off the stage automatically, only Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou were left on the field.

"It seems that the first and second place has been decided between you and me." Lu Yang smiled. He didn't fight enough just now, but now he can let go and fight.

Meng Jingzhou was also laughing, his golden elixir aura radiating outward, and the stones on the ground were shaking: "Come to think of it, we haven't fought each other yet, so this is an opportunity."

"Then we think alike." Lu Yang exuded an aura, and was on par with Meng Jingzhou.

On the arena, two auras that were definitely not possessed by the early stage of the Golden Core collided. The entire arena was like a pot of boiling water, bubbling loudly, and was extremely terrifying.

Suddenly Lu Yang remembered something and looked up at the judges: "By the way, Lanting, there is something I forgot to ask."

"You ask."

“Is there a reward for first place?”

Lan Ting smiled, which looked very strange to Lu Yang: "Yes."

"What is it?"

"The third place prize is a spiritual item for forming a pill, which can increase the chance of forming a pill by 50% and the chance of forming a first-grade pill by 10%."

"The second place prize is a spiritual object for forming a pill and the experience of forming a pill treasured by the governor."

"As for the first place winner, in addition to receiving the Core Formation Spirit Item and Core Formation Experience, the Governor also said that the cultivators participating in the competition lack combat experience and have no Core Formation Experience, so the three of us, the judges, will personally go out and instruct the first place winner on how to fight."

Lu Yang blinked his eyes, looked at the three people from Lanting who were showing strange smiles, his hair stood on end, and he turned around and was about to jump off the stage.

"Old Meng, the first place is given to you!"

Meng Jingzhou grabbed Lu Yang and ran off the stage.

"I was born unlucky and cannot be ranked first. You take the first place!"
