Chapter 497 Unlock the Seal!

Long Huo was rescued by the referee with several life-saving pills stuffed into his stomach.

Meng Jingzhou won.

Long Huo felt a cool sensation in his throat; it was the effect of the elixir. He woke up slowly, his mind empty, and it took him a while to realize that he had already lost.

"Are you okay? You fought well."

Meng Jingzhou reached out and pulled Long Huo up.

Long Huo shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If I lose, I lose. I am not someone who cannot afford to lose."

Meng Jingzhou was worried that Long Huo would be devastated after losing, so he kindly said, "I'll wait for you to beat me next time."

Long Huo was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."

The two had a brief exchange, and Long Huo walked down the stage and saw the village chief waiting for him below. The village chief was a serious middle-aged man.

"Village Chief...I have failed the village's expectations."

The village chief smiled and patted Long Huo on the shoulder. "It's rare to be able to fight like this. Meng Jingzhou is not simple. He is not only the eldest son of the Meng family, but also a disciple of the Wendao Sect. The Meng family is the world's number one family, and the Wendao Sect is the world's number one sect. With these two identities, he is enough to sweep all his peers."

"And look who's here."

Long Huo looked up and saw the village chief move away. Two beautiful figures appeared, one was his childhood sweetheart, and the other was his godsister who treated him like her own brother.

"Brother Long Huo, you are already great!" The childhood sweetheart is a little girl who exudes energy.

"Long Huo, you fought very well. It's worth my teaching you." My sister has a proud figure and a capable style.

"Everyone..." Long Huo's eyes were filled with tears and he cried inconsolably. He vowed to continue practicing hard after returning and live up to everyone's expectations.

Meng Jingzhou, who was not far away: "..."

Can we have another fight? I want to give this guy a one-on-one curse punch.

…

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the second ring match of Young Master Lu is about to begin.

"Heavenly Court, Young Master."

"Feipu Sect, Kong Hao."

The Feipu Sect is a second-grade sect with a shallow foundation. Its sect master is only at the Nascent Soul Stage. Even among the second-grade sects, the Feipu Sect is a little-known existence and is very inconspicuous.

Bai Ming learned about several opponents before the battle: "This Kong Hao is not simple. He appears to be quiet and like a Confucian cultivator, but in battle he is more like an untamed beast. Even before the battle, his crazy appearance scares the opponents."

The leader of Feipu Sect stroked his beard and looked at Kong Hao, who was paying attention to him on the stage, with satisfaction.

Thanks to Kong Hao, he was qualified to attend the celebration and meet so many important people.

"This kid Kong Hao really hides his strength."

Kong Hao is taciturn, seldom talks to others and behaves in a low-key manner. Whenever there is a sect competition, Kong Hao always narrowly wins the first place, and it seems that the gap with the second place is not much. However, no matter how hard the second place tries to catch up, he can't beat Kong Hao.

He expected Kong Hao to hide his strength, but he didn't expect him to hide so much.

Young Sect Leader Lu drew out his precious sword, which was temporarily borrowed from the sect's treasury.

The Qingfeng Sword and Mingyue Sword have both appeared at the Qingzhou Ceremony. If they are not used again in the capacity of the Young Sect Leader, it would be a disclosure.

Lu Yang used his powerful connections to ask the Immortal Fairy to go to the treasury and borrow a sword.

Lu Yang frowned slightly as he faced Kong Hao. This man actually gave him a very dangerous feeling. Even the great cultivator who had dispersed his power and started to cultivate again did not give him this feeling.

"There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers..."

Kong Hao knew how powerful his opponent was, and that he had no hope of winning unless he fought with all his strength.

He put two fingers between his lips and exhaled cold air. The temperature on the ring gradually dropped. Lu Yang raised his foot slightly, but he was a little slow, as if he was stuck in a quagmire.

"Ice-based skills are rare..." Then Lu Yang suddenly realized something was wrong, "No, it's not just cold air, there's poison mixed in with the cold air!"

If you simply mistakenly think it is cold air and use your energy to dispel it, it will only allow the poison to enter your body and absorb it faster. At that time, you will be in a passive position.

"But it doesn't matter."

As a frequent visitor to Danding Peak, Lu Yang is resistant to ordinary poisonous gases and nothing will happen in the short term. He gently spins the sharp sword around him and clears a space around him without cold air or poisonous gases.

Lu Yang's magic spells are so iconic that anyone can tell it's him at a glance. When he was the young leader of the Lu clan, he could only perform swordsmanship.

Fortunately, he is a sword spirit with superb swordsmanship.

While Lu Yang was clearing away the cold and poisonous gas, Kong Hao growled, his muscles bulging like a mad beast, but his eyes were cold and he obviously remained rational.

He rushed forward suddenly, his nails stretched out like the claws of a monster, colliding with the sword but not breaking.

Lu Yang narrowed his eyes slightly. The solid foundation displayed by Kong Hao did not seem to be something that could be cultivated by a second-grade sect. This could not be simply summarized as a gifted talent.

Watching the two men fighting on the ring, the audience exclaimed slightly. Compared to the first fight that ended quickly, this fight was almost indecisive.

Only those monks in the fusion stage could see that Young Master Lu had the upper hand in this battle. Although the two sides seemed to be exchanging offense and defense and fighting back and forth, in fact, Kong Hao was led by Young Master Lu from beginning to end.

"This alone is not enough to pose a threat to me." Lu Yang thought to himself and decided to exert his full strength.

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

Lu Yang turned his wrist, and the tip of the sword drew an arc in the air. Sword energy as fine as cow hair gushed out from every pore, and the sword energy gushed and gathered on the blade.

The sword energy was as vast as smoke and clouds, as boundless as the ocean, sweeping across the world and engulfing the heaven and earth.

scold--

Kong Hao was hit by the sword head-on, and it was useless even if he blocked it with his arms. His arms were covered in blood, his breath instantly weakened, and he was gasping for breath. He was seriously injured.

"Boy, are you going to lose?" A voice echoed in his mind, the voice was low and slow, and one could imagine how huge the being that was speaking was.

"What is it to you?" The sword just now made Kong Hao realize the gap between himself and Lu Yang. This is a gap in talent, which cannot be made up by hard work.

He stared at the behemoth through the iron bars in his mind.

The giant sneered, mocking Kong Hao's arrogance: "Speak politely, arrogant boy, without me, would you be where you are today?"

"I have been in your body since you were born. You know how weird you are. You seem to be low-key, but you have admitted defeat in every battle. Your desire to win is stronger than anyone else. If it weren't for this, I would look down on you."

"What do you want to do?"

"Strength. What you lack is strength. I will lend it to you."

Kong Hao looked at the behemoth in silence. Indeed, even a tiny bit of strength leaking from the opponent's fingers would be enough for him to turn the tables and win.

But in order to use its power, you need to unlock a seal.

Do you want to unlock it? The behemoth grinned, and Kong Hao's tangled expression was reflected in his huge beast eyes. Once you have used my power and truly realize that this is a way to make you stronger quickly, you will take the initiative to unlock the seal step by step. At that time, I will be able to come out.

Kong Hao gritted his teeth. The behemoth was right. He didn't want to lose. He wanted to be the champion.

Just unlock one layer at a time, and leave the remaining eight layers ununlocked.

The huge monster laughed silently, and a layer of seal was released. An ominous force floated out through the iron bars and attached to Kong Hao.

"Um?"

Outside, Lu Yang looked at Kong Hao in surprise. He felt a force surging out of Kong Hao's body, which was continuous and carried with it ferocity and blood, and was very ominous.

Kong Hao's body changed, and his injuries recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye. His originally severely injured body had now healed. His pupils stood up, like a mad lion or a fierce tiger. A layer of animal hair rose from his skin, and for a moment it was impossible to tell whether it was grown or transformed by spiritual energy.

"roar--"

Kong Hao roared, his voice shaking the sky.

Lu Yang's hair stood on end. This was the source of the danger he had sensed!

However, he soon felt that Kong Hao's condition was somewhat familiar, as if he had borrowed a power that did not belong to him and was temporarily possessed.

Lu Yang slowly raised his hand, stared at Kong Hao vigilantly, and used his most powerful move.

"Referee, I report him for cheating."

The second update will be at 11 o'clock
