"Don't say that I don't give the Xiao family face, Liu Lin, if you abandon your cultivation, this matter will end." Sima Xiang said.
Although Sima Xiang has been promoted to the first level of the Golden Core Stage, and his nephew Sima Lang is the ninth level of the Golden Core Stage, his strength is still far inferior to the fourth elder of the Nascent Soul Stage present here. The reason why Sima Xiang speaks forcefully is because he is an alchemist behind him. guild.
"Sima Xiang, I, Liu Lin, sincerely apologize and want to reconcile with you, but you insulted me instead. It would be a big fight!" Liu Lin tried his best to suppress his anger and said.
"Okay, everyone here has heard it. This is what you asked for. I will send my nephew Sima Lang to fight with you. Do you dare to take the fight?" Sima Xiang said excitedly.
"Why don't you dare? I, Liu Lin, will take it."
Liu Lin recently read the illustrations in the "Travel Guide to the Seven Countries in the Eastern Region" and had some insights. Perhaps it was because of his accumulated experience that his cultivation level had advanced by leaps and bounds. He had continuously broken through from the second level of the Golden Core to the seventh level of the Golden Core, and was vaguely aware of it. He felt like he had entered the eighth level of the Golden Core. He had already heard from Shen Wande that Sima Lang was also a late-stage Golden Core cultivator, so he agreed easily.
"Okay! I bear witness that one is at the seventh level of the Golden Core and the other is at the ninth level of the Golden Core. They are both in the late stage of the Golden Core. The duel will take effect. See you at the duel in the afternoon." said the fourth elder.
At this moment, Sima Lang was confused. He didn't expect that his uncle would be so reckless at such an old age. Wouldn't it be nice to ask the other party to compensate him with some real money?
"Okay!" Sima Xiang replied.
"I'll accompany you!" Liu Lin said.
"My Shen family is willing to compensate Mr. Sima a thousand taels of gold and ten low-level elixirs. I hope Mr. Sima can forgive the Shen family for the crime of disrespect." After all, the Shen family is just a common family, and Shen Wande is indeed a little afraid of Sima Xiang, who is an alchemist. , these compensations will not harm the foundation of the Shen family.
"There is no need to pay compensation to the Shen family. As I said, the misunderstanding with your Shen family was caused by me. We have cleared up everything. I will not cause any trouble to your Shen family." Sima Xiang said.
"Since Sima Alchemist is generous and will not hold you accountable for the disrespect caused by the Shen family, your Shen family should pay for today's drinks as an apology. Shen Li, go and inform the shopkeeper to quickly bring in a few bottles of Liuliangye." The third elder said.
"Yes, Third Elder." Shen Li went out to announce that the food was being served.
"Thank you Mr. Sima for not remembering the faults of others. On behalf of the Shen family, I would like to thank Mr. Sima." Shen Wande bowed and said.
Sima Xiang ignored him and said to Liu Lin: "Liu Lin, this may be your last drink, drink well."
Sima Xiang had inquired about this Liulin, but he was only in the early stage of the Golden Core. Even if he was in the middle stage of the Golden Core, Sima Xiang would not be surprised. Unexpectedly, this person actually jumped into the late stage of the Golden Core. From Xiao Laosi's mouth in the Nascent Soul Stage There shouldn't be any lies in what he said.
"Humph." Liu Lin snorted and didn't answer.
"Nephew, take his life when the time comes." Sima Xiang secretly sent a message to Sima Lang.
Sima Lang looked at his uncle and nodded slightly.
At the wine table, Shen Wande toasted to Sima Xiang many times to show his respect. The dispute between the Shen family and Sima Xiang was finally resolved. However, the dispute between Liu Lin and Sima Xiang had to wait until the duel field to resolve the dispute.
After everyone was done drinking and eating, Sima Uncle and Nephew made an appointment with Liu Lin to meet at the duel ground in the west of the city an hour later.
After returning, Sima Xiang said to Sima Lang: "Nephew, how confident are you in killing Liu Lin?"
"Uncle, I have observed this person. He has just entered the late stage of Jindan. I have been in this realm for almost twenty years. It is not difficult to kill him. Now that the Xiao family is the peacemaker, it would be a bit disrespectful to the Xiao family to do so. ." Sima Lang said.
"How great is the reputation of the Xiao family? Is it greater than the reputation of the Alchemist Guild? The Xiao family has the Nascent Soul stage, and so does the Alchemist Guild." Sima Xiang said.
"Hit him seriously and let him breathe. Can you, uncle?"
"It's up to you." Sima Xiang said impatiently.
Chamber of Commerce Station.
Sima De asked Liu Lindao: "Master Liu, we are going to a dangerous place. What are your plans?"
Liu Lin said: "Soldiers will block you, water will block you, and water will cover you. Ever since I debuted, I, Liu Lin, have always challenged me beyond my level. If he wants to fight, then I will fight!"
Xiao family.
"Fourth Grandpa, Liu Lin versus Sima Lang, who do you think will win in this battle?" Shen Li asked the Fourth Elder.
"Liu Lin has just entered the late stage of the Golden Core, and his foundation is unstable. However, the Liu family is often proud of leapfrogging challenges. Although this Sima Lang has been in the late stage of the Golden Core for more than 20 years, he has not yet entered the Nascent Soul stage after all. He is definitely stronger than Liu Lin. It’s not too strong.”
"Fourth Grandpa, is the Nascent Soul stage much stronger than the Golden Core stage? I feel like that Sima Lang is afraid of you." Shen Li asked again.
"That is, only by completely refining the golden elixir can the Tao fetus be conceived, and finally cultivated into the shape of a baby, which is called Yuanying. At the Yuanying stage, the changes in spiritual power in the body can be described as earth-shaking. With just a trace of force, the whole body in the golden elixir stage Cultivation strike." The fourth elder said proudly.
"Fourth Grandpa is mighty and domineering." Shen Li praised.
Shen Li thought to himself: "No wonder Master didn't let me use "Returning to the Origin Absorbing Star" to absorb the Nascent Soul Stage. It turns out that the Yuanying Stage is so powerful."
"I haven't seen you immortal cultivators duel for a long time. There will be a good show soon, haha, how happy!" the third elder said happily.
When the agreed time came, everyone arrived at the duel ground. The fourth elder of the Xiao family rang the big bell in the duel ground.
When the city people heard the bell, they all stopped what they were doing.
The housewife who was doing housework took off her apron, the worker who was carrying bricks put down the bricks in his hands, and the vendors who were setting up stalls also quickly started to close their stalls.
"There is a duel, everyone go and watch."
"Let's go, there's a duel between immortal cultivators, let's go and see."
A large number of melon-eating people rushed to the huge dueling arena in the west of the city, which was like the Colosseum.
"Shen Li, thank you for the book, return it to you." Liu Lin returned the book "Travel Guide to the Seven Eastern Countries" to Shen Li.
"You still know how to repay me? Come back alive." Shen Lichong said to Liu Lin.
"I will." Liu Lin smiled.
Liu Lin jumped into the arena and waved to more and more spectators.
Sima Lang also entered the arena. His tiger body shook, and his cloak fell off. His servants quickly caught it and walked into the arena with great swagger.
At this time, an old man with a long beard in Taoist robes came from nowhere, rose into the air, and looked at each other with the fourth elder of the Xiao family. The fourth elder nodded knowingly, and the two of them worked together to cast a spell. Immediately, the central square of the duel field was formed. A layer of transparent barrier was created to isolate the audience outside the venue from the two people dueling in the venue.
"Liu Lin! Sima Lang! Your duel will take effect immediately. I will be the referee. Do you two have any objections?" the fourth elder shouted to the two people on the field.
"No." The two people in the confrontation replied in unison.
"start immediately!"
As soon as the fourth elder finished the word "shi", Liu Lin took the lead to draw his sword out of its sheath, rushed towards Sima Lang like a stream of light, and slashed straight at Sima Lang's neck.
Sima Lang did not move, he just held the giant sword in one hand and blocked it in front of him.
"Bang..."
The harsh sound of the collision of knives and swords resounded throughout the audience.
Liu Lin was shaken by the impact of the giant sword and did a big backflip. Liu Lin stabilized his body and landed smoothly. If the audience looked with binoculars, they would definitely see some slightness in Liu Lin's hand holding the sword. Slight jitter.
"Since you can't compete with strength, then compete with speed. I don't believe you don't have any flaws?"
