Chapter 1085: You aren't that abnormal

"No way?"

"Surrendered just like that?"

"This... this this this... Tianze Garden only had one person come, and they gave up in the first round?"

Everyone sneered.

A smile also appeared on Jing Lei's face: "Fortunately... this guy gave up!"

"Tsk!" The woman beside Jing Lei said: "Zhang Zixian is ranked fifth in the entire inner sect, if He He Pingsheng isn't a fool, he will definitely give up!"

"Is there any need to fight this kind of battle?"

"Junior Brother, you also have to know the current situation. If you run into a strong opponent, you should also give up at the right time!"

"Inner sect fighting, the purpose is to screen out the top ten to go to Qiankun Immortal City to continue participating in the competition. We are just here to join in the fun!"

"Wait and see, in the end, these spots will still fall into the hands of the top ten disciples on the inner sect Dragon and Tiger List!"

He He Pingsheng gave up, Zhang Zixian won.

Next was continued selection!

After there were people in the ten arenas, the competition began.

The competition was fast, the time for each arena didn't exceed a stick of incense, and some even ended in half a stick of incense.

There were also those who admitted defeat, but not many!

Soon, ten people from the first round were eliminated, and ten people successfully advanced to the next round.

"Next, continue the competition!"

The Elder of Tianwu Garden walked back to the host platform: "In the first arena, number eleven and number twelve!"

"In the second arena, number thirteen and number fourteen... alright, I won't read them one by one, just follow the order and go to your own arenas

"On the second ring, number thirteen and number fourteen... Alright, I won't read them out one by one below. By the same token, you can head to your own rings yourselves!"

He He Pingsheng looked at the token in his hand!

He still had three tokens left in his hand: number thirty-one, number one hundred and thirty-three, and number one hundred and ninety-eight!

If calculated this way, he was included this time as well.

Number thirty-one should be on the sixth ring.

But when He He Pingsheng looked over, he almost vomited blood on the spot.

A person was already standing next to the sixth ring.

He even recognized this person: Daoist Tiandao.

When they were heading to Qiankun Immortal City, this guy lived next door to He He Pingsheng and often made those indescribable sounds. Later, when the ship was attacked, he didn't expect this guy to have actually survived.

More importantly, this guy's cultivation had reached the twelfth layer of the Human Immortal Stage, and he was also someone ranked in the top dozen within the sect.

He He Pingsheng tried his best not to provoke such a person.

Forget it!

Not going!

Giving up.

But this time, he did not step forward.

After all, these tokens were anonymous; if you didn't step forward, you saved others from sneering.

Sure enough, after number thirty-one went unclaimed, it was directly ruled that Tiandao would have a bye and enter the next round!

Lu Xiaoci suddenly arrived at He He Pingsheng's side, though he didn't know when.

She smiled slightly; it was very beautiful.

He He Pingsheng stood up and cupped his hands at her, saying half-jokingly, "I don't know if I should call you Qiao Shijie Lu or Uncle-Master Lu now?"

"Forget it, you!" Lu Xiaoci sat down beside He He Pingsheng and said, "Stop standing there, sit down and talk!"

He He Pingsheng also sat down.

"I heard from Master that you are cultivating quite fast. In less than a hundred years, you've gone from the fifth layer of the Human Immortal Stage to the eighth?" Lu Xiaoci tilted her head, staring at He He Pingsheng.

He He Pingsheng said, "Yes..."

"However, I don't cultivate the dantian; I practice body refinement. Perhaps the speed of body refinement taking shape is faster!"

"No!" Lu Xiaoci shook her head and said, "As far as I know, the speed of body refinement taking shape is slower!"

"Let's not talk about this, but... I remember when we went to Qiankun Immortal City together before, you were still at the third layer. How come they all say you were at the fifth layer back then?"

Lu Xiaoci's beautiful eyes stared at He He Pingsheng, close at hand, with a fragrance like orchids.

He He Pingsheng's expression was calm as he said, "I hid my cultivation back then, so you didn't know, but the ancestor knew!"

"Oh!" Lu Xiaoci said, "Junior Brother He is really interesting!"

"Why did you give up just now?"

"As far as I know, although Zhang Zixian is powerful, with his ability, I'm afraid he couldn't hurt you!"

"Fighting a match with him could also increase your combat experience, couldn't it?"

He He Pingsheng smiled: "Qiao Shijie misunderstood. It wasn't me giving up; this is Senior Brother's token, I gave it up for him... Look... see..."

He tossed out four tokens.

"Pfft..." Lu Xiaoci couldn't help but laugh when she saw these four tokens and asked, "Then which one is your token?"

He He Pingsheng said, "I don't know either. We'll see when the time comes, and I'll pick a weaker opponent to fight!"

The two chatted and laughed, naturally attracting the pointing of many people.

After all, Lu Xiaoci was now the biggest topic in the Red Lotus Immortal Valley.

Not only was she gifted and became the ancestor's disciple, but she had also stepped into the Earth Immortal realm and was someone whose name remained on the Qiankun Immortal City's Dao-Solidifying Heavenly Stele list.

With all these identities added together, her status and reputation were tinged with a layer of mystery.

"I just took a look; when Junior Brother registered, your cultivation was at the ninth layer of the Human Immortal Stage..." Lu Xiaoci's eyes stared at He He Pingsheng again: "You wouldn't have broken through another layer in these past six months, would you?"

He He Pingsheng gave a wry smile: "Yes... isn't it because the ancestor gave me a sarira?"

"I swallowed the blood energy within the sarira and happened to break through a layer!"

"You really are a freak!" Lu Xiaoci said, "I now seriously suspect whether the Kunwu Mountain Fairy Caiyu, who was ranked first back then, was you in disguise!"

"But you shouldn't be that perverted to think about dressing up as a woman!"

He He Pingsheng:............

"I owe it all to you back then. If it weren't for you, I, Lu Xiaoci, would have died I don't know how many times!" Lu Xiaoci turned the topic back: "So... if you have any lack of resources in your cultivation in the future, you can come find me!"

"I will do my best to help you!"

"This is one hundred thousand spirit stones, I owe you!"

"Also... inside this is a 【Bodhi Fruit】, which belongs to the second tier. After swallowing it, you can break through the bottleneck of the Human Immortal Stage. You can use it when your cultivation reaches the eleventh layer of the Human Immortal Stage!"

Lu Xiaoci took out a Qiankun bag and handed it to He He Pingsheng.

He He Pingsheng was not polite and took it directly: "Thank you, Qiao Shijie Lu!"

"By the way!" Lu Xiaoci added, "Last time you asked me if swallowing these heaven-sent treasures to break through bottlenecks would have an impact on one's own Dao methods!"

"I asked Master about this matter and checked the sect's classics, and I have basically gotten the answer!"

"You are right; if you use these heaven-sent treasures to break through bottlenecks for a long time, it will indeed bring problems!" Lu Xiaoci looked at He He Pingsheng: "It will leave hidden injuries on your Dao roots!"

"But... this refers to after becoming a Golden Immortal!"

"In the four stages of Human Immortal, Earth Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, and Profound Immortal before becoming a Golden Immortal, immortals cannot yet comprehend the Great Dao, and the energy in these heaven-sent treasures used to impact bottlenecks is only immortal essence and does not involve Dao methods, so it has no impact on the immortal's own Dao methods!"

"You can go back and eat them with confidence!"

Lu Xiaoci gave the answer!
