Chapter 236 Belonging to Bai Yang's Generation of Jianghu
"boom!"
Just after Li Guanqi's soul body turned into a thousand-meter monster, the entire illusion exploded, shattering like a mirror that fell to the ground and turned into countless fragments.
…
…
"What exactly is going on here?"
On the arena of life and death, Li Guanqi slowly opened his eyes, his face full of astonishment.
Why does his soul body look like that?
"Hey, they seem to be dead?"
At this time, Qin Lubai's soul had also returned to its original place. He shook Li Guanqi's arm and pointed at the two twin sisters lying on the ground opposite.
"Bang bang bang bang!"
As he said that, Qin Lubai rushed over and stepped on the heads and hearts of the two of them one after another... Well, anyway, they must be completely dead this time.
Li Guanqi didn't pay attention to this, he just stood there, feeling deeply confused.
The soul of an adult intelligent creature is the same as the adult body of the creature.
He is an adult.
His soul should also be that of an adult human.
Why... is it that black monster with three heads and six arms, bone spurs all over its body, and a pair of dragon wings?
"The victory has been decided!"
"The winner of this life and death competition has appeared!"
The naked woman covered in blood came on stage and announced the news with a big smile.
But the audience in the audience felt...disappointed and uninterested.
What they want to see is a life-and-death fight, a fight between you and me, a fist-to-flesh killing, not a scene where both sides stand in place for a long time and then die on the opposite side.
I can't understand what happened.
Not interesting.
But regardless of whether the audience likes it or not, victory or defeat is victory. Li Guanqi and Qin Lubai are the winners. As the champions of this life and death competition, they finally got their wish and got the prize they wanted.
"Bang!"
The transparent ball hanging on the dome of the cave fell from the sky, passed through the gap in the iron cage of the life and death competition, fell on the life and death competition ring, and was smashed into pieces.
Two Four Elephant Performance Martial Orders also appeared among the fragments on the ground.
"Finally got it!"
Qin Lubai hurriedly stepped forward to pick it up, and then raised the two Four Elephants Performance Martial Orders high.
Looking up at the martial arts order shining brightly under the bright yellow firelight, this woman also had an indescribable brilliance in her eyes.
"..."
There were no shouts from the audience. After all, this finals was not worth watching. For ordinary people, the bloody killing with fists and fists is what they really want to see.
But who cares what the audience thinks?
At least Qin Lubai doesn't care, she got the Four Elephants Performing Martial Arts Order and is feeling very happy now.
And Li Guanqi didn't care even more.
All he could think about now was his own soul.
What's wrong with his soul?
…
…
Matters concerning the soul are destined to be unanswered at this stage.
And Li Guanqi is an optimist. For such puzzling problems, he always has only one decision - don't think about it.
Actually, it’s not that I don’t want to.
The main reason is that it’s useless to think about it, and I can’t think of anything even if I try hard, so I’m still thinking of nothing.
Li Guanqi decided to wait until he reached the dungeon of the Conjurer, returned to the Southern Xinjiang Headquarters, and then went to the library to look for information. If that didn't work, he would ask Chi Gongming, who was suspected of being Qin Lubai's adoptive father.
After getting the Four Elephants Performance Martial Order, although Li Guanqi had a Four Elephant Performance Martial Order, Qin Lubai still gave him one.
The life and death battle between the two has officially come to an end.
Li Guanqi and Qin Lubai left the faceless zone in such a swaggering manner.
Will anyone come to grab the token?
Li Guanqi is certain.
Won't.
This is a very interesting phenomenon.
Although it is a very common phenomenon, every time he thinks about it, he still can't help but sigh at the ingenuity of things in the world.
He and Qin Lubai were at the peak of Liangyi level, and obviously, they were not injured during the whole process, and they were completely in their prime.
So, who can come and snatch them?
In other words, who has the ability to defeat two martial artists at the pinnacle of Liangyi level?
Families and sects that have the ability to do so do not need to do so.
Because a force of this level has long been able to obtain tokens through various means - and among the four martial arts competitions, each family or sect can only send one person to participate, and there are too many tokens to use.
As for the sects that don’t have the ability to grab it like this... they can’t grab it either.
So many factions cooperate?
There are only two tokens in total, how do you divide them if you grab them?
These are all lessons learned in blood. A hundred years ago, many sects cooperated and robbed each other. In the end, a group of them fought again, resulting in heavy losses.
Of course, many reasons can be summed up in one sentence:
Losses are not proportional to gains.
What is the use of performing martial arts orders?
The martial arts order itself is just a ticket, a ticket to participate in the four martial arts competitions.
After getting the martial arts training order, you have to defeat the young talents of the four major families in the four martial arts competitions and get into the top thirty - this can only be achieved by at least two levels of cultivation.
Otherwise, the token is useless.
Moreover, only young people under the age of thirty are allowed to participate in the Four-Family Martial Arts Competition.
In other words, after you get the martial arts performance order, you must have a Liangyi-level martial artist under the age of thirty in your sect to ensure that the martial arts performance order is useful.
Maybe this disciple is the outstanding disciple that you regard as your direct successor and the future leader of the sect.
What next?
Then the Sixiang family will extend an olive branch to this outstanding disciple of yours... Well, your disciple is very loyal, saying that he will never betray the sect, but just wants to follow him into the secret realm of Sixiang.
So, what happens after entering the Secret Realm of Four Symbols?
Only people from the Sixiang family can enter the secret realm and pass through the blessed land to try to break through the two rituals and the three talents.
Outsiders can't do it.
Outsiders can only stay on the periphery and collect the magical herbs and elixirs from the periphery... Countless precedents have proven that this harvest is not amazing.
At least this harvest is not enough for some small sects to spend a large number of manpower to fight against two martial arts at the peak of Liangyi level.
Losses are not proportional to gains.
Then there is no force that will do this.
Therefore, to sum up, it is destined that no one will come to snatch Li Guanqi and Qin Lubai... If they are seriously injured, it may attract many forces to come over, but the problem is that they are not injured at all.
This phenomenon is very common in life, but it is also really interesting.
In the final analysis, things in this world are just four words.
——Weigh the pros and cons.
This is also the motivation of Li Guanqi and Qin Lubai.
If it weren't for Qin Lubai's method of sneaking into the Suzaku Blessed Land, they would have looked down upon the spiritual grasses and fruits outside the Four Elephants Secret Realm, and they would have been too lazy to fight for the martial arts order in a life-and-death competition.
Now.
The Four Elephants Exercise Martial Arts Order has been obtained.
The next thing Li Guanqi and Qin Lubai have to do is to participate in the Four Families Martial Arts Competition, and then both reach the top thirty, join the four major families, and then enter the Four Elephant Secret Realm.
Finally, they cooperated again, sneaked into the secret area, entered the fire-attributed Suzaku Blessed Land, used fire to refine their bodies, and tried to break into the Sancai level.
But the most important thing to note is...
If the two of them had collided on the ring before they had reached the first thirty meters, the fun would have been huge.
one day.
There is still one day left until the four families compete in martial arts.
After returning to the safe house at the bottom of the well, Qin Lubai said that she was going to have a good sleep in the safe house at the bottom of the well and let Li Guanqi stay where he could to cool off, so as not to share a room with her.
After the two men's life-and-death battle, it was almost 4 or 5 o'clock in the morning.
When Li Guanqi walked out of the safe house at the bottom of the well, a touch of fish belly white had already appeared on the horizon.
Dawn breaks.
It's the early morning of the last day before the four-family martial arts meeting.
Facing the morning glow, Li Guanqi walked towards the prosperous and beautiful above-ground world of Leicheng, passing through one shop after another along the way, admiring this city with its strong martial arts style.
He wanted to see the world.
This [Leicheng No. 1] dungeon is obviously designed to allow the extraordinary warriors of the martial arts route to change from the battlefield to the battlefield.
The battlefield is the army, and the army is the court. The water here is too deep, and it is not for the weak to participate. If you go in, you will be cannon fodder. Obviously, the strange world does not want extraordinary people to participate so early.
Therefore, the [Frontier Battlefield] dungeon allows people to see the tip of the iceberg of war, and then through being framed, enter the world of Daluo in [Leicheng No. 1].
Leicheng, Li Guanqi has arrived.
But has he seen the world of joy and hatred?
No.
Two of them went to the Faceless Zone, and they were all lunatics. Especially the Faceless Zone where two people competed in a life-and-death battle. It felt like they were all drugged, and they were dancing like crazy. They were not normal people at all.
But...what exactly is Jianghu?
Are there any rivers and lakes in Leicheng?
Li Guanqi thought, there should be some.
For example, sixty years ago, the era that Bai Yang experienced and created was Jianghu.
That's Baiyang's world.
It was Bai Yang who came out of the sky, stirred up a storm, overwhelmed a generation of young talents, and became invincible in Leicheng.
It was Bai Yang who made a mistake in his middle age and killed the head of the Qinglong family by mistake, which resulted in the death of his entire family and his own stupidity.
It was Bai Yang who finally woke up and single-handedly surpassed his level to kill the five-element-level monsters and save 300,000 people in a city. He then traveled for ten years and after returning to the city, he eliminated the martial arts culture in the entire Leicheng City.
Leicheng.
Bai Yang was born here, grew up here, and will eventually die here in the future.
Bai Yang belongs to Leicheng, so he can see, find and have his own world in Leicheng.
What about Li Guanqi?
Can he find his own niche in Leicheng?
I'm afraid the answer is "no".
Li Guanqi walked in Leicheng for a whole day, visited every corner of Leicheng and saw every scenery of Leicheng.
In the martial arts hall, he saw a young man sweating profusely in front of a wooden mannequin, and a young girl holding tea in her hands and smiling like a flower.
He saw a young man shaking his fist to the sky in the dusk, saying that he would become the most powerful hero and use the most glorious way to marry the girl back to the happiest home. Then he was killed by the girl's father, who was his
The master grabbed his ears and whined in pain.
He saw on the ring that there were outstanding disciples from both sects, carrying the honor of their own sects, and began to attack each other. In the end, the winner enjoyed the cheers, and the loser left sadly.
He saw in the darkness a son of an old friend coming to seek revenge. The old killer, who had long since retired, looked back at his wife, children and granddaughter, then closed his eyes, smiled, and went to die calmly.
at last.
The granddaughter of the old killer, holding the body of her late grandfather, looked up to the sky and howled, and swore "I will never be a human being unless I take revenge"... In this way, a grudge and a grudge were concluded.
The cycle of retribution and retribution repeats itself.
Li Guanqi did not interfere.
Because other people have other people's grievances, which have nothing to do with him. He cannot care about them, let alone should not care about them.
"Not here."
late at night.
There are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the streets of Leicheng.
Li Guanqi was sitting on a stone wall in a high alley, looking at the night scenery of half of Leicheng. He was holding a pot of osmanthus wine, a specialty of Leicheng, in his hand. After taking a sip, he felt the aftertaste in his mouth.
Yu Gan lowered his head and smiled.
Not here.
He does not belong to Leicheng.
His world is not here.
This is a copy of [Leicheng No. 1].
And "Number One in Leicheng" belongs to Bai Yang of the White Tiger Family, and it can only belong to that one person.
This copy is just for him to see other people's world.
The world that belongs to him is still behind and in the future...
"Bai Yang? Bai Yang! Hehehehe!"
Suddenly, an old man's laughter sounded from behind.
"Um?"
Li Guanqi turned around in surprise. He was a little surprised and even more frightened. Why did he only find out when someone was approaching someone when he made a sound?
However.
Appearing ten meters behind him was an old beggar with unkempt hair, white hair covered in dust, and filthy body. He had a silly smile on his dirty face, and he was pointing at Li Guanqi and laughing continuously.
[Third-level martial artist of different blood!]
Sancai?!
Li Guanqi was stunned.
"Baiyang! Baiyang!"
The old beggar called Bai Yang's name, took a step forward with a smile, and flashed to the stone wall where Li Guanqi was standing like a ghost. He leaned next to him and said with a silly smile: "Bai Yang, you were the number one in Leicheng at that time.
?”
"???"
Li Guanqi's face was full of questions, "I'm not Bai Yang, my name is Li Guanqi...ah, me."
He was speechless for a moment.
I'm still not used to using a pseudonym, but forget it, it doesn't hurt to expose the real name in a simulated copy, and although this old beggar is a third-level martial artist, he seems to be stupid.
wrong.
None of this is a problem.
The question is, why does this old beggar call him Bai Yang?!
"Hey, madman."
Suddenly, at the end of the alley at night, in the darkness, a tall figure walked slowly, and the old man's hoarse voice came.
Li Guanqi was stunned.
I saw the tall old man wearing white clothes, his hair as white as frost, his face like a sword carving, tough and masculine, with a white goatee, holding a pack of osmanthus cakes from the DC area in his hand, which is similar to osmanthus stuffed rice.
From the same shop.
This person...this person...
like.
Looks similar.
If this white-haired old man shaved off his beard, his face would probably resemble Li Guanqi's.
The best thing is the height.
According to Li Guanqi's visual inspection, the old man's height was exactly the same as him, also 1.98m, not an inch taller, not an inch shorter, completely consistent.
If they were wearing the same clothes and looked at Li Guanqi and the old man from a distance, it would be impossible to tell who was who.
"Hey! Bai Yang!"
At this time, the old beggar next to Li Guanqi laughed stupidly, turned to look at Li Guanqi, shook his head with a smile, "No, no, you are not Bai Yang, Bai Yang is that one!"
As he spoke, the old beggar jumped up like an ape, jumped up from the stone wall of the alley, grabbed a willow branch and swung over. He ran to the tall old man and directly grabbed the packet of osmanthus cake in his hand.
.
"It's delicious, hehe, it's delicious!"
The old beggar grabbed the sweet-scented osmanthus cake with his dirty hands and started eating it. He squatted in the corner and ate happily, his face covered with crumbs.
"Slow down... forget it, you won't be choked to death anyway."
The tall old man patted the old beggar on the shoulder, then looked at where Li Guanqi was and smiled softly at him, "Sorry for disturbing you, little brother."
"Uh, no, it's okay."
Li Guanqi looked hesitant.
none?
There are no cultivation hints appearing on this old man.
Ordinary people?
No!
It can't be an ordinary person.
This kind of thing has been learned for a long time. If a person deliberately hides his cultivation level through some means, the system will not display his cultivation level.
This tall old man is definitely a martial artist!
And his cultivation level is not low.
So... Baiyang?
Li Guanqi jumped from the stone wall, cupped his hands and fists towards the old man, and said hesitantly: "Senior...is it Bai Yang, Master Bai?"
"I am Bai Yang."
The tall old man's eyes were gloomy and his voice was hoarse, "But I'd better avoid the word hero."
"Um?"
Li Guanqi was startled.
I see.
Even though this old man single-handedly saved 300,000 people in Leicheng, he still never crossed that threshold in his heart, he just hid it.
He has not yet completed his own redemption.
"Junior Qi Xuan, I have met Senior Bai."
Li Guanqi cupped his fists and saluted.
"Not Li Guanqi?" Bai Yang glanced at him with a half-smile.
"Forehead……"
Li Guanqi's expression froze, slightly embarrassed.
"You are a foreigner."
Bai Yang said softly: "Where did you come from? I don't want to find out. I only care about what you want to do in Leicheng. You just came from the double life and death competition last night and killed your opponents for five rounds. You got the Four Elephant Martial Arts Order. Prepare
Participate in the martial arts competition of the four families and enter the secret realm of the four elephants."
"...Exactly." Li Guanqi nodded.
"I don't like faceless zones."
Bai Yang turned around, with his back to Li Guanqi, and looked at the silly old beggar in the corner who was eating sweet-scented osmanthus cake, his eyes darkened, "Those who practice martial arts as a killer will eventually pay the price they deserve... I am the same, and so is he.
.
He is older than me.
My husband has been wandering around Leicheng City since he was a child.
He is a third-level martial artist... In fact, this should be his cultivation after falling into the realm.
He was once a killer of the Dark Brotherhood. At his peak, he was a martial artist at the Five Elements level. He practiced evil martial arts and killed countless people for money and power.
However.
One night he went crazy and accidentally killed his entire family, and then he went crazy. In the blink of an eye in Leicheng, hundreds of years have passed..."
Speaking of this, Bai Yang let out a faint sigh, which was particularly clear in the silent night.
"..."
Li Guanqi didn't know how to respond.
But...this old madman has lived for at least a hundred years.
The lifespan of a warrior with different blood is not only linked to his realm, but strictly speaking, the impact of different blood is even greater.
There has never been an accurate estimate of the lifespan of a different-blood warrior.
Different blood types have different lifespans.
Some third-level warriors can only live a hundred years before dying.
Some Liangyi-level warriors, because of the special blood in their bodies, live a very long life, and can live three to four hundred years.
All are uncertain.
But one thing is for sure.
The life limit of a martial artist and the life limit of a conjurer are both 999 years, which cannot break the thousand-year mark.
The shackles of a thousand years of life seem to be a curse on the heads of human practitioners.
"You are very good."
At this time, Bai Yang seemed to have recovered from his emotions, looked at Li Guanqi, and said with a smile:
"Talent, muscles, and spirit are all very good. Don't be nervous. You can perform well in the arena tomorrow. With your cultivation level, there is no need to worry about entering the top thirty. If you perform better, you will be in the top ten. You can choose any family at that time.
, just follow and enter the secret realm of the Four Symbols."
"What about you?"
Li Guanqi suddenly asked: "This junior wants to join your White Tiger family, is that okay?"
His martial arts image was initially of roaring tigers in the mountains and forests, and the martial arts that made the Baihu family famous was "White Tiger Fist"!
"Forget it."
Bai Yang shook his head slightly, "Since I returned to Leicheng, the Baihu family has never accepted any martial artist who has come out of the double life and death competition.
If you can go on stage and kill people for the sake of the Four Elephants' martial arts order, then, one day, assuming there is a greater benefit in front of you, will you do greater evil for the greater benefit?"
"Evil thing? That's not the case."
Li Guanqi frowned, "Whether I go on stage in a life-or-death duel depends entirely on my own free will. I went on the stage voluntarily, and the ones I killed were all my opponents who came on the stage voluntarily. You are willing and I am willing, so how can you say anything evil?"
"Maybe."
Unexpectedly, Bai Yang did not refute. The old man just lowered his eyes and said sadly: "I admit that I am pedantic, but I really... don't want to see killing anymore."
Li Guanqi was startled.
"Young man, you are indeed very good."
After a long while, Bai Yang raised his head, looked at Li Guanqi, and said with a smile: "Don't worry about the White Tiger family. The White Tiger family is not the best. Among Leicheng, the Qinglong family has the deepest foundation. If you want to develop in Leicheng, they are the ones."
Best choice.”
"Farewell, little friend."
Having said that, Bai Yang slowly walked into the night with his hands behind his back, and the tall old man's generous back gradually disappeared from Li Guanqi's sight.
"..."
Li Guanqi withdrew his gaze, raised his head, and looked at the starry sky and the bright moon, his eyes twinkling.
tomorrow.
The day when the Four Families Martial Arts Competition is held!
All the young warriors in Leicheng and the young talents from the four major families will gather in that arena to make friends with each other and discuss the Tao with martial arts!
