Chapter 123: I'm in a Real Rush, Okay!
Although Zhang Lingyu's life-cultivation has improved greatly over these four years, it is Zhang Lingyu's Thunder Method that has progressed the fastest.
It seems that because of Lin Xuan's presence, Zhang Lingyu has spent these four years cultivating his heart and nurturing his nature, focused and undistracted, and naturally his progress has been swift.
After hearing the Celestial Master's words, Lu Jin's beard twitched, but he did not speak.
What he did not know was that his opportunity to beat up the Celestial Master fair and square had just vanished.
On the field, the reason Zhang Lingyu did not unleash his Thunder Method was naturally because of the voice that rang in his ears.
He knew very well that it was Lin Xuan's voice.
Moreover, after knowing Lu Linglong's current approximate strength, Zhang Lingyu really did not intend to unleash his Thunder Method.
Just now, Lu Linglong had asked him to go all out, and the honest Zhang Lingyu naturally did not intend to refuse.
The main reason was that he had indeed sensed a threat from Lu Linglong.
It was just that this threat felt present yet absent, and his perception was not very clear.
Zhang Lingyu also did not know if his perception was correct.
"Be careful!" Lu Linglong did offer a warning this time, and took the initiative to attack Zhang Lingyu.
Her movements were extremely fast and agile, and after casting the Hushou Zhou, every move and stance was quite powerful.
It was just that Zhang Lingyu, who was prepared, nimbly blocked Lu Linglong's attack.
One can only say that there is indeed a gap in their true strength.
If one does not use their innate ability.
And Lu Linglong here is not stupid; on the contrary, she is very clever.
She quickly realized that it was impossible to threaten Zhang Lingyu with conventional means.
The blood inside her body began to surge, and her skin rapidly turned red.
Zhang Lingyu could clearly feel the threat from Lu Linglong growing stronger.
Especially when he saw the changes in the skin on Lu Linglong's arms and face, he immediately became vigilant.
Lu Jin frowned slightly when he saw this scene.
Of course, he knew about his great-granddaughter's innate ability.
It was just that she could not control it freely right now.
Of course, he also did not wish for this ability to appear in Lu Linglong.
"The fight can end here!"
Lin Xuan spoke up.
Without using all her means, Lu Linglong could not threaten Zhang Lingyu.
And Zhang Lingyu had not gone all out either.
Boom!
A peal of thunder rang out on the field.
Zhang Lingyu suddenly pulled back, his hands wreathed in silvery-white electric light.
Lu Linglong stood in place with her head bowed; the Hushou Zhou that had originally been perfect on her body had also developed cracks, yet it did not automatically repair itself.
Lin Xuan raised his hand, and a streak of greenish-blue thunder flew out, piercing through the Hushou Zhou on Lu Linglong's body in the blink of an eye and landing on her.
Lu Linglong, whose mind had been filled with chaotic noises, felt her head clear up, and her whole person recovered from that sense of Hun Dun.
"Again!"
Lu Linglong had not noticed her own situation at all, and said this while looking at Zhang Lingyu, who was standing in the distance with a guarded expression.
Zhang Lingyu looked at Lu Linglong's palms.
Just now, blood had emerged from her fingertips and condensed into a blood-colored thorn that was actually able to pierce the protection of the Golden Light Spell.
This was the reason Zhang Lingyu had subconsciously unleashed his Thunder Method.
"That's enough!"
Lu Jin suddenly called out.
Zhang Lingyu and Lu Linglong turned their heads in unison.
"Linglong, you still need to cultivate for a while; you have lost this match!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Linglong curled her lip and was about to speak, but saw Lin Xuan give her a thumbs-up.
Her mood immediately improved.
"Got it!"
Lu Linglong shouted, cupped her fists toward Zhang Lingyu, and turned to prepare to leave the field.
After Lu Jin instructed Lu Linglong to concede, he turned to look at Lin Xuan.
"You can suppress it?"
"Although my Thunder Method is slightly different from the Yang Five Thunders, it is extremely Yang and rigid, so it can indeed suppress it, but this is her own ability, so there is no way to clear it."
Although there was a trigger, it was ultimately an ability she had awakened herself; it was just that the ability was somewhat strange.
He was not in a hurry to help Lu Linglong deal with it right now.
He would ask Lu Linglong for her own decision later.
People in the surrounding stands saw Lu Jin intervene in the match, but since he was Lu Linglong's elder, they were not surprised that he made the decision for her.
Not many people could detect the strangeness in Lu Linglong's final attack just now, so it did not attract much attention; instead, some felt it was over too soon.
And as for the person appearing next, Zhuge Qing's popularity seemed even higher than Lu Linglong's.
Many young girls were cheering for Zhuge Qing at the top of their lungs.
After the two entered the arena and stood still, Wang Ye picked at his ear, looked at the people cheering for Zhuge Qing on the stands on both sides, and had a strange expression.
Zhuge Qing, however, looked calm.
"Brother Zhuge, please show mercy!"
"Brother Wang, you as well!"
The two spoke, then assumed their stances.
Then, the battle of Immortals between two sorcerers began.
Wang Ye, who initially wanted to end the fight using Taiji Fist, quickly discovered that Taiji Fist alone simply could not do it.
"Ho! I didn't see that coming; Wudang's Wang Ye is actually a sorcerer too."
Lu Jin squinted his eyes as he watched the scene in the arena, with earth rivers, flames, and various wooden stakes shooting into the sky, and he was amused.
Wudang is most famous, of course, for Taiji Fist.
There is no need to mention Zhou Meng, and Yunlong, who currently manages Wudang, also has a very famous reputation for his Taiji Fist; most importantly, his actual skill is truly formidable.
Lin Xuan and Lao Tianshi both remained silent, watching the two in the arena battle with their techniques.
Wind Queen Strange Gate versus Martial Marquis Strange Gate.
Only a moment into their exchange, Zhuge Qing, who had previously only been at a slight disadvantage, suddenly bled from his nose and mouth, his aura weakening.
Seeing this, Wang Ye did not continue his attack.
Watching the two in the arena conversing softly, along with the look of shock on Zhuge Qing's face.
On the front viewing platform, the expressions of many among the Ten Elders became serious.
Among them, Chen Jinkui, the big boss of the Sorcery Sect, stopped spinning the coins in his hand and stared straight at the arena.
He knew the Martial Marquis Strange Gate, and having seen it many times, he considered himself to have an understanding of it.
But Wang Ye.
This kind of method?
Chen Jinkui thought of a name, his sitting posture immediately became incredibly upright, and his eyes stared at Wang Ye in the arena with burning intensity.
Zhuge Qing voluntarily conceded and withdrew.
Aside from his female fans cursing Wang Ye, everyone else felt the fight was quite spectacular.
It should be the most spectacular match among all the participants in this competition.
However, as soon as Wang Ye left the arena, he saw a huge crowd of girls surging toward him; in an instant, cold sweat covered his entire body, and he turned and ran.
Lao Tianshi watched the people of Longhu Mountain clearing the arena, then turned his head to look at Lin Xuan.
"How is it?"
"What?"
Hearing this, Lin Xuan turned his head to look back, his tone calm.
"One after another popping up, this is not normal."
"Then Tianshi is asking the wrong person; I am a junior, and when these things appeared, I didn't even exist yet."
"You know what I am asking about."
"I can only say it has nothing to do with me, and this matter should also come to an end; it has been chaotic for how many years now."
Looking at Lao Tianshi, Lin Xuan said earnestly.
Tianshi nodded slightly upon hearing this, then stared at Lin Xuan.
"Don't look at me, I don't want trouble, I still have things to do!"
It was clear that Lao Tianshi had the intention of having him step in to resolve it, but Lin Xuan really found it troublesome, and it was indeed too far-reaching.
After the events at Longhu Mountain this time concluded, aside from his sparring session with Lao Tianshi, he would have to focus his attention on the Longhu Golden Core.
Time is very tight, you know.
