Chapter 267: A Tilting Contest with Ghosts and Monsters
Liu Xiaoqing rises a trace of strange feeling, carefully think about this three to four hundred people is really a veritable big mix-up. However, one hundred places is quite a lot, and the rules of the martial arts competition Liu Xiaoqing was previously aware of were completely different, apparently this was a temporary change in the rules.
Liu Xiaoqing was placed in the gold group, while Yin Li was placed in the wood group, this result made both of them breathe a sigh of relief at the same time.
If they were in the same group, they would still have to take care of each other, and their hands were even more tied up in battle, avoiding the same group would also allow them to fight with impunity.
"Brothers, this one hundred places seems a bit much, I want to reduce reduce, left one how good." Suddenly, Yin Li said with a strange smile.
Liu Xiaoqing's gaze went cold as he said indifferently "That's exactly what I want too."
"Since this is the case why don't we compete and see who ends the fight first." Yin Li proposed.
"Alright!" Liu Xiaoqing thought about it, but when he saw that Yin Li was so interested he had no choice but to agree.
In reality, Liu Xiaoqing didn't want to expose his strength too early, after all, he hadn't figured out the motives of the Refinement Sect Sect Leader until now.
However, after careful consideration, Liu Xiaoqing also let go of the caution in his heart, only to participate in the martial arts conference in order to take a bite of bad luck for the clan, rather than to investigate the motives of the Refining Sect Sect Sect Master.
Therefore strength exposure or not does not affect Liu Xiaoqing's original intention at the beginning.
"Be quiet, be quiet!" Just at this time, a majestic voice rang out in the square, instantly suppressing the clamor of several thousand people.
Liu Xiaoqing raised his head and gazed at the source of the voice with a grave gaze, this voice was more than familiar to him, it was none other than the voice of the black-bearded old man.
Two years ago, the conspiracy to frame Zongfa, it was this old man who pushed the envelope below, at that time, Liu Xiaoqing couldn't wait to kill the black-bearded old man directly, except that this old man's strength was too strong.
Two years later, Liu Xiaoqing had made a breakthrough in his realm, and had even cultivated the Divine Body Tempering Method to the third level, but the feeling given to him by the black-bearded old man was still unfathomable.
Although Liu Xiaoqing was unwilling to admit it, but had to say that in a short period of time there was no possibility of defeating the black bearded old man, perhaps there could be a qualification for a frontal battle.
But the only way to win was to wait until he broke through to the Divine Human Realm.
"All of you are the elites of my Body Refining Sect, today is the annual martial arts competition that will select ten slots to go to the Netherworld Immortal Realm, I hope that you will be able to grasp this opportunity." The black-bearded old man's words had just fallen, and the square was once again thrown into chaos.
"What, Misty Immortal Realm, isn't this quota internalized, how could you spare it to be taken out for everyone to have a chance to compete for it?"
"It could be that the Sect Leader is being generous and letting us have a dip in the light as well."
Surprise flowed from the faces of every disciple of the Body Refining Sect, and voices such as these were even more incessant.
Liu Xiaoqing pressed down the doubts in his heart, this place of Ethereal Fairyland was still the first time Liu Xiaoqing had heard of it, but looking at the reactions of all the disciples it wasn't hard to tell that there must be amazing benefits hidden in the Ethereal Fairyland.
"Everyone get ready!" As the black-bearded old man's voice falls once again, a huge orb made of seven-colored rays of light forms on the open space in the middle of the square.
No more, no less, just five.
In the next moment, different big words appeared on each orb, gold, wood, water, fire and earth.
It looks like this is where the five groups will be having a melee, Liu Xiaoqing secretly guessed.
"Each enter the illusionary realm to which they belong." The black bearded old man continued to say in a loud voice.
Next, one after another, people entered the orb of the group they belonged to, Liu Xiaoqing also entered it along with the tide of people, however, there were still two to three thousand people outside who did not move, this strange scene made Liu Xiaoqing frown.
For some reason, a trace of uneasiness inexplicably rose in his heart, as if something terrible was about to happen.
Just as Liu Xiaoqing looked up again, the orb gradually solidified, forming a huge separate enclosed space, no longer able to see the scene outside.
"How is this competition so odd, the upper ones are not allowed to participate, could it be that there is still a difference between low level and high level martial artists?" At this time, a Body Refining Sect disciple muttered with a face full of doubt.
These words were like thunderbolts from a clear sky, Liu Xiaoqing's face suddenly changed drastically, carefully observing the three to four hundred martial artists within the orb, and sure enough, all of them were at the Immortal realm or below.
No, this is a conspiracy!
Although he still didn't understand the real reason, Liu Xiaoqing understood why there were two to three thousand people outside who didn't participate in the melee.
The two to three thousand people must be the elite of the Body Refining Sect, while the ones in front of them were just abandoned wretches.
What exactly was the Body Refining Sect Patriarch trying to do?
However, Liu Xiaoqing still didn't understand the purpose of the Body Refining Sect Sovereign doing this, if it was just for the purpose of killing the two of them, there was no need to go through so much trouble, how much more trouble would it be to do it directly.
Damn, I fell for it again this time.
Liu Xiaoqing secretly blamed himself for his poor vigilance, but now is not the time for regrets, he must figure out the real motive of this martial arts competition.
A vicious plot.
"How come the competition hasn't started yet, are we going to stand here and stare dryly?"
"I don't know, it could be that the Sovereign has other plans."
Gradually, a dissatisfied voice rang out from the orb, almost everyone became impatient, Liu Xiaoqing silently came to a corner, avoiding everyone, his mind quickly pondering over the bizarre everything.
Just at this time, along with the sound of a boom the orb suddenly exploded and shattered, the huge shockwave tore two thirds of the people into pieces, the rest of the people even if they managed to survive, however, they were also dying of serious injuries.
Of course there was one person who was unharmed in the shockwave of the explosion, this person was none other than Liu Xiaoqing who had practiced the Divine Body Tempering Method.
Steadily landing on the ground, Liu Xiaoqing looked at the broken limbs and wreckage of three to four hundred people scattered on the ground, and couldn't help but suck in a mouthful of cold air in his heart.
When Liu Xiaoqing's heart calmed down a little and looked around in shock, his entire being fell into even greater astonishment.
This was a blood red world, the ground was even more bizarrely blood red, the color of the sky was also the same, even though Liu Xiaoqing was used to seeing weirdness, he couldn't help but be chilled at this moment.
"Haha, the people below have sent another sacrifice, let's enjoy it quickly."
"This time, the sacrifices seem to be extraordinary, with powerful bodies and surging blood qi, they must be very delicious."
Just at this time, a single sharp and eerie voice rang out from the distance, Liu Xiaoqing turned around in disbelief, a single short figure appeared in the distance, and was bouncing and running towards Liu Xiaoqing.
To be honest, at first glance it looks like a mischievous and cute child, but when looking at the color of the skin on their bodies, Liu Xiaoqing finally understands that this group of guys are not good.
And the words seem to be very interested in humans, beings that can treat human flesh and blood as food are certainly not how friendly creatures.
By this time, Liu Xiaoqing gradually understands the motives of the Body Refining Sect Sect Master, holding the competition is just a front, the real participants in the competition are the two to three thousand elites outside, and the people who enter the orb are just sacrifices, wretches who are being utilized by the Body Refining Sect Sect Master.
The more Liu Xiaoqing thought in his heart, the more angry he became, but he quickly calmed down, now is not the time to be angry, he must find a way to leave this weird place.
I don't know where Yin Li is, but Liu Xiaoqing isn't worried about Yin Li's safety, as long as there are no surprises Yin Li relying on the Sacred Body won't be injured in the shockwave of the explosion.
First deal with the monster in front of him.
A red humanoid monster as short as a child came in front of Liu Xiaoqing, when they saw Liu Xiaoqing unharmed they all revealed a shocked expression.
"You're surprisingly uninjured?" A red monster shivered and said.
"Hmph, how else would you guys kill if you were injured." Liu Xiaoqing coldly responded, then without waiting for the words to fall, his body suddenly rushed forward and blasted away a red monster in front of him with a palm.
However, Liu Xiaoqing was surprised that the red monsters are quite scary, but in reality they are unbearable, Liu Xiaoqing almost did not spend a trace of strength, simple and easy to solve dozens of red monsters.
Looking at the red monster corpses that have fallen to the ground, Liu Xiaoqing's expression is strange, but he doesn't think much about it, and takes a step towards the far side.
Along the way Liu Xiaoqing saw a lot of not seriously injured Refining Sect disciples, Liu Xiaoqing is not a cold-blooded and heartless person, if the normal situation absolutely want to find a way to save them.
Unfortunately now is in an unknown red world, Liu Xiaoqing doesn't want to bring a seriously injured and dying liability, lest he put himself in danger because of it.
Besides, even if they were saved, they would still die as usual in a short time, because the people who are alive are almost always fatally injured, and the chances of recovery are very small, not to mention in this red world full of perils.
"Say, what is this place and what are you guys?" After a short while, Liu Xiaoqing encountered another group of red monsters that were gnawing on human corpses.
This time Liu Xiaoqing didn't kill them completely, but left one behind for interrogation.
"This is the Purgatory World, I'm a demon ……," the red monsters shivered.
Purgatory world? Demon? Liu Xiaoqing frowned, demons have not only heard of but also seen, as for this Purgatory World it's the first time he's heard of it.
"Are there any other living beings in this world besides demons?" Liu Xiaoqing coldly pressed.
The red monster sitting on the ground shivered and answered Liu Xiaoqing's question in fear "There are demons and humans."
Surprisingly there are humans? Hearing the devil Liu Xiaoqing is not surprised, because the devil and the demon from the beginning to not broken contact, but when listening to the human beings Liu Xiaoqing is really a big surprise.
This gloomy world is still living human beings, simply too incredible.
"Don't kill ……" After asking the question that should be asked, under the red monster's terrified yell, Liu Xiaoqing stomped on the red monster's head.
It looks like there is a need to find the Yin Force first, and then look for the whereabouts of the humans in the Purgatory World, perhaps through them they will be able to leave this hellish place.
Although Liu Xiaoqing is not a person who is greedy for enjoyment, but in this kind of environment, not to mention the boring cultivation, it is estimated that if he stays for ten days and half a month, he will directly go crazy.
The Purgatory World is a perverted torture for normal people, unless mentally abnormal people, almost no one can live here for a long time.
Along the way there are broken limbs everywhere, gnawed broken bones, bits and pieces of flesh and blood, the smell of rotting and blood is pungent, Liu Xiaoqing was tortured so much that he couldn't wait to close his eyes and give up breathing to move forward.
Hehe, there is even the sound of a fight ahead?
At this time, covering his nose, Liu Xiaoqing overheard the sound of a fierce fight, and hurriedly stood at a high place to take a look, and sure enough, there were two figures fighting fiercely.
Maybe they are humans from the Purgatory World.
Thinking of this, Liu Xiaoqing raised his spirits and then accelerated his advance, moving quickly towards the place where the fight was taking place.
Not long after, Liu Xiaoqing found a place more than a dozen meters away from the two fighting, and then stood still and started to watch the battle that was going on not far away.
The two sides of the battle were two youths, both of them had dark red skin, although it wasn't as creepy as a red monster, but it was also different from normal humans.
Of course, this was most likely due to the long period of time spent living within the Purgatory World, which gradually caused this abnormal skin color.
Soon, the energy emanating from the two men as they fought once again caught Liu Xiaoqing's attention, this kind of energy appeared to be a light blood red color, which looked very bizarre.
Two people to the realm to no special place, all are immortal realm three, Liu Xiaoqing estimates that he can easily win over two people.
Seeing that the battle is a moment and a half will not be able to distinguish between the winner and the loser, waiting impatiently Liu Xiaoqing decided to personally take action to end the battle, and then properly interrogate the two.
"Stop!" Liu Xiaoqing shouted, and then with his lightning and thunder steps, he appeared in front of the two men in almost an instant.
The two men's poor vigilance made Liu Xiaoqing speechless, and the moment Liu Xiaoqing appeared, it unexpectedly scared the two men to the point where they simultaneously trembled and retreated to the distance in panic.
"What are you?" The one who spoke was a slightly head thinner youth.
"This you don't need to know, right now you only need to answer me one question, then I will let you go." Liu Xiaoqing said indifferently.
"Arrogant!" The youth who was conversing with Liu Xiaoqing suddenly rushed out and slammed his fist into Liu Xiaoqing's chest.
Liu Xiaoqing sneered as he stood still, nonetheless, he did not have any intention to move, instead, a sneer appeared in his eyes.
Boom!
The youth's punch landed impartially on Liu Xiaoqing's chest, emitting an extremely dull sound, as if the blow was directly smashed on the wall.
Liu Xiaoqing's body did not sway in the slightest, on the contrary, the youth who hit Liu Xiaoqing screamed miserably, and his entire body flew out like a kite with broken strings.
At this moment, Liu Xiaoqing suddenly moved, lightning-like caught up with the youth who flew out, backhandedly slapped on the youth's chest, accompanied by the sound of a broken sternum, this youth was hard slapped into the ground.
Seeing this scene, the other fatter youth was stunned silly, shivering and shivering as he stood still, surprisingly not taking advantage of the opportunity to escape.
Liu Xiaoqing only struck out so viciously, precisely asking to make the other youth feel scared so that he could ask the truth from the corner of this fellow's mouth.
"Say your name?" Liu Xiaoqing walks carelessly while faintly asking.
"My name is Tiger Fei, please don't kill me, my father is the chief of the nearby tribe, whatever he wants he will give it to you." Tiger Fei shivered and said.
"Good, I won't kill you, tell me how can I leave the Purgatory World?" Liu Xiaoqing's voice was slightly gentler so as not to scare this tamer little guy.
Hearing Liu Xiaoqing's inquiry, Tiger Fei grows his mouth in surprise and says dumbfounded "You even want to leave here, are you crazy?"
"Bullshit, people who want to stay here are crazy, answer my question quickly or I'll kill you." Liu Xiaoqing's face sank as she coldly forced the question.
Tiger Fei felt Liu Xiaoqing's killing aura and shivered in fear.
"Don't kill me, I really don't know how to leave the Purgatory World, besides everyone here doesn't want to leave, you won't be able to ask the answer to this question even if you ask someone else."
Liu Xiaoqing froze, frowned and said "What do you mean, is there something here that is worth you staying?"
Purgatory world is eerie, I'm afraid that only people with perverted hearts can live here for a long time, the Tiger Fei in front of him even said that all of them don't want to leave, Liu Xiaoqing can't think of a reason even if he thinks through his head.
"Of course, this is a magical world, as long as one is lucky enough, one is able to obtain things that one wouldn't dare to think of in any world, so everyone who comes here doesn't want to go back." Tiger Fei gathered his courage and his voice got slightly louder.
After listening to this explanation, instead of figuring out why, Liu Xiaoqing fell into even greater doubt.
This world in front of him in addition to the bloody stench Liu Xiaoqing can't feel that there are other places that can make people have the urge to stay, as for the magic that Tiger Fei said Liu Xiaoqing can't even feel it.
"Where is your tribe, take me there now."
Liu Xiaoqing thinks about it and can only find other people to ask.
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoqing's words, a quick flash of joy flashed through Tiger Fei's eyes, the keenly observant Liu Xiaoqing of course caught this trace of joy, only Liu Xiaoqing was too lazy to dismantle Tiger Fei, anyway, he had to walk up to the tribe, only then would he be able to look for a way out of the Purgatory World.
"What are you waiting for, let's go." Liu Xiaoqing said with a cold smile, Tiger Fei trembled and hurriedly lowered his head and walked towards the front, Liu Xiaoqing followed closely behind him.
After a short while, the two came to a high ground, as they continued to advance, the terrain became higher and higher, almost like they were climbing a steep mountain.
When the terrain was almost ninety degrees vertical, Tiger Fei in front of them suddenly stopped, Liu Xiaoqing looked up, not far in front of them appeared rows of houses.
The houses are all built with stones, very simple, at this time the Tiger Fei in front of him turns around and says in a slightly excited tone "This is exactly our tribe."
Liu Xiaoqing expressionless nodded, did not answer the words of Tiger Fei, but step toward the front, see this Tiger Fei dry smile a few times hastily followed.
When walking to the position of twenty to thirty meters from the tribe, a person suddenly rushes out from it, Liu Xiaoqing fixes his eyes on it, a hint of joy flashes in his eyes because this person is not someone else, it is precisely the yin force that Liu Xiaoqing has been searching for all along.
After Yin Li rushed out from one of the houses, behind him even chased out a woman, this woman has a pretty face, exquisite figure, definitely can be called the three words of great beauty.
Only a dress is too simple, white skin so that not far away Liu Xiaoqing can not bear to look at, but look at Yin Li shocked panicked look as if he ran into a flood beast, Liu Xiaoqing heart can not help but feel funny.
Yin Li this guy would not have done anything to this woman that should not be done, right? Liu Xiaoqing secretly thought, the more he thought about it, the more speechless he felt in his heart.
Yin Li is also really nervous, even though he is deep in the vicious and dangerous Purgatory World, he still doesn't forget to seek pleasure.
"Brother-in-law!" Tiger Fei was so excited to see Yin Li that he actually yelled out, Liu Xiaoqing on the side grew her mouth in surprise and almost thought that she was hallucinating in her ears.
Tiger Fei unexpectedly called Yin Li brother-in-law, Liu Xiaoqing who came back to his senses couldn't help but secretly sigh, Yin Li is really not an ordinary person, this only came to the Purgatory World in a short period of time, unexpectedly had a brother-in-law.
When Yin Li heard Tiger Fei's excited shout, his body trembled and he quickly stopped his pace, when he saw Liu Xiaoqing in his gaze, Yin Li's expression was as surprised as it could be.
"Brother-in-law, this guy is bullying me, help me teach him a lesson." Tiger Fei glares viciously at Liu Xiaoqing, Liu Xiaoqing glances at him with a smile, very calmly standing in place.
"Roll aside." When passing by Tiger Fei's side, Yin Li impatiently overturned Tiger Fei on the ground with a palm, the woman chasing behind him ran over in a panic and helped Tiger Fei up.
"Yin Li, you ungrateful bastard, why did you hit my brother." The woman had an angry face and coldly rushed at Yin Li's back.
Yin Li turned a deaf ear, with a happy face, he came to Liu Xiaoqing's face "Brother, it's great that you're not in trouble, let's go, let's quickly; get out of here." Said Yin Li with a very panicked look, obviously in fear of the woman coming after him.
Liu Xiaoqing shook his head, forced a smile and said "big brother, sister-in-law even so much care about you, I see you might as well stay, but also good to have a child and a half of a daughter is not beautiful."
"What the hell sister-in-law, I was forced." Hearing this word sister-in-law Yin Li was so scared that he directly jumped up, seeing this scene Liu Xiaoqing's face couldn't help but reveal a smirk.
"Yin Li, you feel your conscience and say whether I forced you or not?" At this time, the woman came angrily from not far away and directly grabbed the clothes of Yin Li who was planning to escape.
Yin Li bitterly smiled and helplessly collapsed his face, stood in place and simply raised his hands, obviously giving up resistance.
Liu Xiaoqing's eyes flashed a smirk, the always fearless Yin Li finally found his nemesis this time, looking at Yin Li's appearance it was obvious that he had to admit defeat.
"Sister-in-law, I am Liu Xiaoqing, and big brother Yin Li is a sworn brother." Liu Xiaoqing said with a smile, not paying the slightest attention to Yin Li's desperate wink.
The woman who was shouted by Liu Xiaoqing's "sister-in-law" is smiling, simply happy, loosened Yin Li's clothes, then said very enthusiastically "Brother Liu Xiaoqing, since you are here, why stand outside, hurry up and follow me in."
Liu Xiaoqing nodded, was about to take a step to go when inadvertently saw froze in the not far away Tiger Fei, Liu Xiaoqing seemingly smiling non-smiling walked over, said faintly "Tiger Fei, your brother-in-law does not seem to recognize you this brother-in-law, want to count on him to teach me a lesson is not possible."
Tiger Fei dry laugh a few times, very embarrassed, said "Oh, are family members, talk about what lesson not lesson."
At this time, the woman just heard Tiger Fei Liu Xiaoqing's conversation, only to see the woman fiercely glared at Tiger Fei, and then with a sweet face took Yin Li's arm and walked towards the tribe.
