Chapter 485: Self-created Shape Imitation Art
The center of Xuan Yuan City was already a sea of people at this time. The crowd was rubbing shoulders, and not a single gap could be seen. However, the gazes of most of the onlookers were looking toward the number one arena from time to time. Although there were many people, there were not many people watching the other arenas.
Because a favorite to win the championship was standing on the number one arena at this time. Compared to the other unknown participants, the crowd watching the fun would naturally focus their attention on this favorite to win.
A tall fatty was standing on the number one arena, his hands in his chest, his expression arrogant, closing his eyes and waiting for the participant who was going to fight him.
The crowd looking toward this side at this time was filled with discussion.
"What's going on? Why hasn't Wu Gang's opponent arrived yet? If he doesn't arrive, he will be judged as having forfeited and admitted defeat."
"Hehe! I heard that the person who drew Wu Gang is named Zhou Bao, a nameless loose cultivator. He is truly unlucky. Who wouldn't he draw, but he had to draw Wu Gang. How could a mere little loose cultivator be Wu Gang's opponent? I think he is probably too scared to come!"
"What a pity! I originally thought there would be a wonderful battle seeing Wu Gang here. Now it seems his opponent is going to flee in fear of battle. I'm afraid this battle won't be seen."
The crowd was filled with discussion, and many people showed disappointed expressions at this time.
The referee in charge of the number one arena frowned slightly. Seeing that the battles in the other arenas had already begun, but Wu Gang's opponent still hadn't appeared, he gradually lost patience. Just as he was about to announce the competition result and judge Wu Gang as the winner, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted loudly: "Zhou Bao is here! Sorry! Sorry! Really sorry, I just overslept. I shouldn't be late, right!"
Long Xuan finally arrived. Relying on his brute force, he squeezed out of the crowd, jumped onto the arena at the fastest speed, and asked the referee below with a sheepish look.
"Whether you are late or not has no impact on the competition result. Start now!" The referee said with contempt.
Upon hearing this, Long Xuan let out a long sigh of relief and finally looked at his opponent opposite him.
Before he could speak, this tall opponent's mouth curled up, and he hooked his fingers at him frivolously, taking the lead to say arrogantly: "I'll let you have three moves first. I guarantee I'll stand still and absolutely won't fight back!"
A contemptuous smile appeared on Wu Gang's mouth, completely not putting the person in front of him in his eyes.
After his voice fell, the whole arena was in an uproar. Standing still and letting the opponent make three moves first was simply arrogant.
Seeing that there was a good show to watch, all the onlookers looked very excited and looked toward this side together.
Clearly, everyone didn't think Zhou Bao could break Wu Gang's defense and all showed playful expressions.
Only one person was an exception. Long Dan, who had been watching this side, couldn't help but twitch his mouth a few times after hearing Wu Gang's arrogant words.
Standing still and letting Long Xuan hit him three times—he was truly courting death!
Originally, with his combat strength, even if he wasn't Long Xuan's match, he could still fight a few moves. After all, he was the chief genius of a super empire.
But now he actually dared to stand still and let Long Xuan hit him three times. Then it would be strange if he wasn't killed in seconds.
Wu Gang would probably become the first favorite to win the championship to be killed in seconds in this Western Regions Genius Tournament. He was going to lose face this time.
Long Dan shook his head and moved his gaze to the side, unable to bear watching anymore.
"Standing still and letting me hit you three times, are you sure?"
Long Xuan looked at Wu Gang with a surprised gaze, simply unable to believe his ears. Was this Wu Gang in such a hurry to go down? "Don't talk nonsense, start. I'll only give you three chances. Don't say I'm bullying you!"
Wu Gang patted his chest. In an instant, his body was covered with spiritual power. Looking from afar, it was like a turtle shell. One look and one could tell that the defensive power was definitely not simple.
"Alright! This is the first time I've heard such a cheap request. Since that's the case, then I'll fulfill your wish!"
Long Xuan put away his smile. At this time, he finally stopped talking nonsense, his expression turned ruthless, and he rushed toward Wu Gang at an extremely fast speed.
He only knew that the Black Tortoise bloodline's defensive power was very strong, but he had no concept of how strong it specifically was.
Facing this rare good opportunity, he didn't dare to be careless. He used all his strength and pointed a finger at the chest Wu Gang had just patted.
For this finger, he used the Firm Finger, erupting all his body's strength at one point. Long Xuan's freakish physical strength—once all his body's strength was gathered at one place to erupt, how strong would it be?
This still didn't count? Long Xuan didn't dare to underestimate the Black Tortoise bloodline's defensive power. Suspicious, he directly opened the first four gates of the Life and Death Gate, making the attack power of this finger multiply by who knows how many times again.
It is no exaggeration to say that the destructive power of his finger at this time was enough to injure a Gu King.
Anyway, opening the first four gates of the Life and Death Gate instantly had no side effects, so Long Xuan used this move without any hesitation.
Seeing this menacing finger, Wu Gang showed a look of ecstasy and laughed wildly: "Well come!"
Just as his voice fell, this finger had already pointed to his chest. In an instant, the Black Tortoise defensive power woven on his body was like paper, broken at the touch of this finger.
Overbearing power erupted from his fingertips, as if it had found a vent, and madly surged into every part of his body.
Before Wu Gang could react, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his whole person flew out horizontally, falling heavily under the arena, immediately losing consciousness.
At this moment, the whole arena was silent.
Everyone widened their eyes, looking at this scene in disbelief.
Wu Gang, the favorite to win the championship, was actually killed in seconds by a finger from a nameless person. Do you dare to believe this? All the onlookers were dumbfounded on the spot. The whole arena was silent for a long time before a deafening clamor finally sounded.
"Damn! Wu Gang was actually killed in seconds by someone in one move. It's truly unbelievable!"
"Who exactly is this person! Wu Gang's defensive power is unbreakable by those of the same rank. Who exactly can easily break his defensive power? I'm afraid no one of the same rank can block this finger strength!"
"Tsk tsk! This Wu Gang acted too arrogant. Now he has lost face. He is the strongest shield, but he happened to run into the strongest spear. He is truly unlucky."
"It's also because he was arrogant. This person is good at attack power, and there must be areas he is not good at in other aspects. If it were a fair competition, Wu Gang might not lose, but he happened to arrogantly stand still and let people hit him. Sigh!"
Ignoring the crowd's crazy discussion, Long Xuan walked down the arena after solving his opponent in a low-key manner.
The Black Tortoise blood had already been obtained, so he didn't need to continue staying here.
Things went unexpectedly smoothly. He didn't expect that obtaining the Black Tortoise blood would be so easy. He originally thought that the number one genius of the Black Tortoise Empire must have heaven-defying combat strength and would need to fight him for three hundred rounds before a winner could be difficultly decided.
Now it seems he thought too much.
As soon as Long Xuan got off the arena, the crazy crowd surrounded him and talked to him excitedly, making him unable to leave here for a short time.
He solved the championship favorite Wu Gang cleanly, not only stunning everyone but also arousing the interest of many Gu Kings.
Such a genius with superior combat strength—those many forces preparing to select geniuses at the tournament naturally couldn't let him go. They all surrounded him, offering extremely high conditions one after another, inviting him to join their forces. Long Xuan was annoyed.
Seeing that this group of people wouldn't let him pass no matter what, he was helpless and could only choose a super strong force named Wu Sect to join.
Anyway, he wasn't Zhou Bao, so whatever decision he made had nothing to do with him. This Zhou Bao joined an awesome sect and even thanked himself, but he never left his name when doing good deeds. As for what would happen after the fake genius Zhou Bao was exposed, that was none of his business.
Long Xuan's mouth curled up, and he finally squeezed out of the crowd and left...
Looking at his departing back, Long Dan showed a look of deep wariness. Only he knew that this was just a clone of Long Xuan. A mere clone actually killed the championship favorite in seconds. He was shocked to the extreme in his heart.
If the clone was so terrifying, then how strong should Long Xuan's main body be? He thought uneasily.
Scanning the faces of all the Gu Kings in the crowd one by one, Long Dan's fear became even greater. A clone disguised as Zhou Bao, and not a single Gu King in the whole arena could see through it. What kind of ability was this? This child was truly going to defy the heavens.
In the crowd, Zhang Renshan clenched his fists, looking at Zhou Bao's departing back with burning eyes, his fighting spirit rising high.
"Gathering all the body's strength into one finger to erupt—what a terrifying body technique. It's been a long time since I've seen such a powerful body technique expert!"
"Not sparring with such a body technique expert makes me itch. After I finish this competition, I must find this person named Zhou Bao and have a good spar!"
At this time in the inn, Zhou Bao couldn't help but shiver...
After the Flame Clone successfully took away Wu Gang's essence blood, it didn't stop and headed toward the main body's location. A few days later, it finally stopped in front of that pavilion.
At this time, Long Xuan had already carved half of the array patterns on Di Xin's bones, and half of the progress was still not completed.
Whether it was him or Di Xin, both had to rest for a period of time before completing the carving of the other half of the array patterns.
Sensing that the Flame Clone was approaching at an extremely fast speed, Long Xuan hurriedly went to greet it.
The two met, and the Flame Clone threw the small bottle containing the Black Tortoise essence blood to Long Xuan at the first opportunity.
Taking the small bottle, Long Xuan checked it carefully. After confirming that it was Black Tortoise divine beast blood, he was overjoyed and laughed wildly: "Well done!"
"Searching for divine beast blood for so many years, I've finally found it. Now I can finally cultivate the third Dharma Aspect."
"Once the Black Tortoise Dharma Aspect is formed, my physical strength will grow to a terrifying level again!"
"At that time in the River God Secret Realm, even if I only had two Dharma Aspects, I easily dealt with all the Gu Kings who lost their abilities. After I cultivate the third Dharma Aspect, how can that be?"
Long Xuan clenched his fists, his gaze becoming more and more excited.
"This is the essence blood in the genius's body, containing a trace of divine beast bloodline. Human blood cannot be preserved for a long time. You should swallow it immediately for the best effect. You can put my affairs aside."
Di Xin walked out of the cave dragging her exhausted body. At this time, her face was extremely pale, without a trace of blood.
"No matter! Your affairs are important. The matter of carving array patterns on human bones must be done in one go. It's best not to drag it out!"
"My clone can also cultivate. Your affairs won't delay me."
Saying this, Long Xuan threw the small bottle containing the essence blood back into the Flame Clone's hand. Clearly, he was prepared to be lazy and let the clone cultivate the cultivation method for him again.
He had already done this kind of thing countless times and was already used to it.
The Flame Clone took the flying small bottle and left without complaint. It was also already used to it.
"You are truly unscrupulous. Does your clone have any human rights in your hands?" Seeing this scene, Di Xin couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.
Time flew by, and another month passed.
Taking another month, Di Xin's bones had already been carved full of array patterns by Long Xuan. The first step of cultivating the "Bone Tempering Art" was considered completed.
At this time, Di Xin was in seclusion, trying to use her physical body to control this brand-new set of bones. Only when she could completely master the brand-new power would the "Bone Tempering Art" be truly successfully cultivated.
This step was absolutely not simple. What Di Xin did was simply defying the heavens. The pioneering feat of carving tiny array patterns all over the bones had never appeared in history. Di Xin had opened a precedent, and it was unknown what kind of unknown changes she would encounter.
After Long Xuan left the cave, he immediately couldn't wait to see the clone's cultivation situation.
It could be considered a tacit understanding. At the same time he finished carving the array patterns for Di Xin, the Flame Clone also successfully cultivated the third Dharma Aspect for him.
At this time, under the scorching sun, there were three huge Dharma Aspects—Divine Dragon, Golden Crow, and Black Tortoise—in the sky. The three Dharma Aspects appeared together, releasing endless might. The birds and beasts in the forest fled one after another in fear.
Looking at the Black Tortoise phantom in the sky, Long Xuan nodded with satisfaction and sighed secretly that it was worthy of being the legendary Black Tortoise. Just the appearance was enough to bluff people. The only pity was that this was a phantom, just a visual impact, without any combat strength. It was a pity.
Just as this thought appeared, Long Xuan's heart suddenly moved.
Speaking of which, he hadn't created matching spirit techniques and body techniques for his cultivation method for a long time. The flash of inspiration just now gave him inspiration.
Undoubtedly, Dharma Aspects could be used to attack opponents. The last move of the Life and Death Gate, Night Xuan, was an example.
He planned to develop a powerful move to attack opponents using Dharma Aspects, but it must not pay a very high price.
The number of his Dharma Aspects was much more than ordinary people. Once this move was developed, it would simply be like adding wings to a tiger for him.
You must know that the number of his Dharma Aspects was not eighteen including the clones.
Ever since he cultivated the "Purgatory True Demon Art," the three souls and seven spirits were separated. Long Xuan discovered that the three souls and seven spirits operating the cultivation method at the same time could stimulate ten Divine Dragon Dharma Aspects.
He had lived two lives and had a pair of three souls and seven spirits, which could release twenty Divine Dragon Dharma Aspects.
If he hit twenty Divine Dragons with one palm, wouldn't it be an otherworldly version of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms? Long Xuan's eyes brightened, but he soon shook his head again. This move could not only hit twenty flying dragons that could collide with opponents, but also hit twenty Golden Crows that could attack opponents, and twenty Black Tortoises that could attack opponents.
Therefore, the name Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms was not very vivid. He was more willing to call this move Shape Imitation Art.
"Shape Imitation Art" could bring Dharma Aspects to life and use powerful Dharma Aspects to collide with opponents. Just thinking about it, one knew the terrifying degree of this move.
Such an overbearing attack method immediately aroused Long Xuan's interest. Too lazy to rest, he couldn't wait to run into the Soul Study to start the project of self-creating "Shape Imitation Art."
Speaking of which, no matter what he created, a considerable part of the content needed to be guessed and needed to be exhausted. If he was lucky, he could guess it quickly. If he was unlucky, he might be stuck in certain places for a year. Self-creating techniques was very testing of luck.
But ever since he created the Chess Gu, he had already shared the luck of many super geniuses. At this time, his luck skyrocketed. When he created anything, it would inevitably greatly shorten the construction period under the influence of luck.
The reason why he couldn't wait to self-create the second matching body technique was not because he wanted to test the impact of Chess Gu on himself.
How long would it take to create "Shape Imitation Art" this time? He was very looking forward to it... (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 486 =====
