Chapter 398
"No!"
"This round doesn't count, I wasn't ready just now!"
True Person Bunü climbed up from the ground, looking at He Pingsheng on the stage with a flushed face.
He Pingsheng, however, said calmly, "You lost!"
"No... I won't lose!" Bunü said: "I am not someone who cannot afford to lose, but this time I was truly careless!"
"Fellow Daoist... today is not the final day of the competition!"
"Even if you won today, I will still challenge you tomorrow!"
"So, if you don't want trouble, let's fight properly; whoever wins this arena gets to stay, how about it?"
Actually, what True Person Bunü said made sense.
Could He Pingsheng kick someone of the same realm away with one kick?
Of course he could!
However, if facing someone of the same realm who was also a Golden Core Daoist, that would not be very likely.
Even if his Five Elements Mixed Unity Strength was unleashed, it was not very likely.
The reason he was able to kick Bunü away just now was entirely because the opponent was overconfident.
Because the first time, He Pingsheng did not succeed, so this Bunü became overconfident, almost adding no resistance, using only an earth-attribute defensive spell to defend, which gave He Pingsheng an opportunity.
If it were under normal circumstances, with offense and defense, He Pingsheng would almost certainly not succeed.
For example, you kick out, and the other person simultaneously casts a defensive spell while attacking.
Using offense as defense.
Once this happens, it would be impossible to kick them away.
What True Person Bunü said later also made sense.
If he wasn't allowed to challenge today, once He Pingsheng became a Stele Guardian, he would sooner or later have to face this guy.
Hmm...
Since that was the case, it would be better to solve it once and for all.
"Fine..." He Pingsheng agreed, saying: "I'll give you half an incense stick of time to rest; after half an incense stick, we will start again!"
Facing this eleventh-layer Golden Core Stage cultivator, He Pingsheng naturally dared not be careless; after consuming a few drops of 【Golden Bee Holy Nectar】, he filled all his dantian and Golden Core.
At this time, True Person Bunü also jumped up.
"I am going to be serious!" True Person Bunü said: "You must be careful in your response!"
He Pingsheng said, "You cannot win!"
"Rest assured, I cannot lose..." True Person Bunü was full of confidence: "I know wood overcomes earth, you overcome me... but the gap in cultivation base cannot be made up by the restraint of Daoist techniques!"
"Today, let me tell you..."
"The gap between the eleventh layer of Golden Core Stage and the sixth layer of Golden Core Stage..."
Boom...
The earth-attribute magic power within True Person Bunü surged out, instantly forming a small mountain three zhang in size above his right hand.
This was not a magic tool or magic treasure, but pure earth-attribute magic power.
"Take this move of mine..."
Bang...
True Person Bunü, holding the small mountain in his hand, jumped violently into the hundred-zhang void, and then was about to smash that small mountain onto the top of He Pingsheng's head.
However, just at this moment, True Person Bunü saw a scene he would find hard to forget for the rest of his life.
He saw that on the arena below, which was thirty zhang wide and thirty zhang long, countless green thorns rose from the ground and broke through the soil.
Dense and numerous, they covered the entire arena.
These thorns grew rapidly, and in less than a breath, they grew to four or five zhang high.
A green ocean had long since submerged He Pingsheng within it.
True Person Bunü could no longer see He Pingsheng at this very moment, but it didn't matter; his spiritual sense could lock onto him.
"Fall..."
The mountain peak in his hand smashed violently toward the place where He Pingsheng was.
Rumbling...
Just as the mountain peak was falling, the millions of thorn vines on the ground rushed out violently, soaring into the sky like green giant dragons; countless thorn vines blocked the falling momentum of this small mountain, forcibly stopping the speed at which the small mountain was falling.
Then, countless thorn vines wrapped around it.
Crackle...
That small mountain directly turned into powder.
Countless thorn vines flew and grew toward the void again, and the direction was exactly True Person Bunü.
Now, True Person Bunü's situation was very awkward.
He only had two paths.
Either take the thorn vines head-on, or jump off the arena to another place.
Because the entire arena had long since been covered by thorn vines.
"Damn it..."
Just as True Person Bunü was hesitating whether to rush down directly, those countless thorn vines had already rushed to his front.
Then they took the opportunity to trap him tightly.
Pfft...
Pfft, pfft, pfft...
Dozens of poison thorns flew out, one after another piercing True Person Bunü's body.
The skin broke, and poison liquid poured into his body.
"Such thick... wood... spiritual power..."
After True Person Bunü finished this sentence, he directly fainted.
In the shocked gazes of countless people, those emerald green thorn vines began to shrink; they turned into countless wood spiritual power and flew back into He Pingsheng's body.
The arena returned to its original appearance.
The only difference was that this True Person Bunü was already lying on the arena.
Motionless.
As if he were dead.
The entire scene was silent.
Because the scene of millions of thorn vines flying out just now was too shocking.
After a long time, someone swallowed hard and said with a dry mouth: "I never thought that this wood-attribute spell could also be so fierce?"
"Amazing!"
"This guy is a ruthless person!"
"That guy isn't dead, is he?"
Everyone's gaze was placed on Bunü again.
He Pingsheng extended his hand and placed it on True Person Bunü's body, and then the wood-attribute magic power in his hand sucked violently, and the virulent poison remaining on True Person Bunü's body was sucked away by him.
Bunü woke up faintly.
"Many thanks!" Although he was poisoned into a coma just now, he still had a trace of soul consciousness awake, and everything He Pingsheng did, he saw in his eyes.
If He Pingsheng had wanted to kill him just now, it would not have been easier.
Even if he did nothing, just this toxicity would have been enough to keep True Person Bunü from ever waking up.
So after waking up, True Person Bunü was very grateful.
"You're welcome..." He Pingsheng waved his hand faintly: "Which other Fellow Daoist wants to challenge?"
"If there are none, then today, the first place of this tenth Dragon Platform is mine!"
He Pingsheng's gaze swept across everyone below the tenth Dragon Platform.
The number of people here had actually increased again.
A glance: Goodness...
Those people who were previously below other Dragon Platforms had all run to the tenth Dragon Platform.
Below the Dragon Platform, it was quiet; no one challenged anymore.
He Pingsheng said: "If no one challenges, then I'm sorry, I'm leaving!"
"I'll come back tomorrow to challenge the Stele Guardian!"
He Pingsheng left the arena and came toward the direction of his own Chamber of Commerce.
Behind him, Princess Qinghe chased over in a hurry all the way, saying: "Hey... He Pingsheng... wait for me!"
On a certain street, He Pingsheng stopped his steps and turned his head.
Princess Qinghe asked: "You are actually so powerful; when you fought me before, were you going easy on me?"
"Not at all!" He Pingsheng spread his hands and said: "This is a divine ability I realized only after my recent eight months of seclusion!"
"Without this divine ability, I wouldn't have been able to beat that True Person Bunü either!"
Qinghe said: "Is what you said true?"
He Pingsheng nodded: "Of course it's true!"
