The third challenge came as scheduled, still three days later, and after this one, Xu Bansheng could leave at any time no matter whether he won or lost. [Full text reading]

Provided, of course, that he's still alive.

In the past three days, Xu Bansheng has lived in seclusion, basically not communicating with anyone, except for going to the registration office every night to chat with the old man.

The old man was very willing to instruct him, but he didn't mean it, and he didn't need anything in return, as long as Xu Bansheng brought wine and food, he would talk endlessly. Most of the time is reminiscing about the eventful years, more than 2,000 years of experience, and it is naturally quite vast to write.

On the evening of the third day, the old man had finished his last sip of wine, and his old eyes, which had always looked dull and cloudy, suddenly became clear.

The old man said, "Boy, after tomorrow's battle, you're leaving, right?"

Xu Bansheng looked at the old man, nodded and said, "The junior still has some things to deal with...... hesitated, and did not say that he would come back to visit the old man.

The old man smiled slightly and said, "Boy, do you know why I am willing to chat with you, old man?"

"The seniors are powerful, and the juniors have benefited a lot these days, and they naturally understand the good intentions of the seniors. ”

The old man smiled and nodded for a while, and said: "You kid, you understand everything, if you want to talk about genius, I don't know how many geniuses I have seen here these old men, even if you are outstanding among geniuses, but you are not worthy of the old man's blue eyes." If you want to be humble, there are people who are a hundred times lower than your posture, and if you want to talk about vision, there are many people who know in the courtyard that I, an old thing who can't leave, has returned to the realm of emptiness. If you want to talk about filial piety, I don't know how many people I am willing to buy wine and vegetables for the old man, Hugh wants to say what fate, the old man, I have lived for more than 2,000 years, and there are not many days left, and it is not my business. You don't want to blink your words, but you give the old man me a guess why the old man is willing to talk to you more?"

Xu Bansheng rang seriously for a long time, and he really didn't understand why this old man was willing to chat with him. It is said that it is chatting, but in fact, it is preaching, the old man is a sword cultivator, and Xu Bansheng is actually not a pure sword cultivator, even so, he still benefits a lot, if he changes to a sword cultivator, he doesn't know how much benefit he can get. Even the past experiences that the old man talked about with him seemed to be just a story, but in fact, it also made Xu Bansheng understand many things. This kind of realization can never be described in a few words.

He had also wondered why the old man was like this, but he never had an answer.

I never thought that the old man would ask about this, what he has been unable to figure out these days, how can Xu Bansheng think about it for so long?

The old man glanced at Xu Bansheng deeply and said, "If you want to know the answer, go and get some more wine, the dishes are also cold, go get some hot dishes." Old man, I only have this one night left in my fate with you, and you will leave tomorrow, and I don't think I have a few days to live, old man. Returning to the void, it is really empty, three thousand years of immortal path, and finally become an illusory bubble. ”

The old man sighed, Xu Bansheng suddenly felt a little sour in his heart, he stood up silently, walked out of the small courtyard, found a tavern, made some good wine, asked for a few snacks, and returned to the registration office with the food box.

However, Xu Bansheng just pushed open the small door of the firewood, but found that the formation in the courtyard had completely changed, although he recognized this formation, and also knew the way to crack it, but his strength could not reach the level of breaking the formation, and he couldn't get off for a while, and he couldn't walk into the courtyard.

Xu Bansheng was puzzled, he was worried that something would happen to the old man, so he hurriedly shouted: "Senior, senior!"

There was no longer the old man's dull voice inside, there was just silence, but Xu Bansheng only felt a suction force appear, and he involuntarily raised his hand.

The suction only acted on his hand, and the food box shook slightly, and the wine Y inside hit the wall of the pot, making a soft sound.

Xu Bansheng frowned, he quickly understood that this was the person in the house who wanted to take the wine and food in his hand, so it seemed that the old man had not had an accident, but why did he say that he wanted to explain his doubts, but he didn't let him in?

Loosen your five fingers, and the food box flew steadily into the hospital.

The wooden door opened slowly, and the food box flew in and closed on its own, but there was no sound at all.

Xu Bansheng stood outside the firewood for a long time, and finally had to arch his hand, and said: "Seniors, don't let the younger generations live, three thousand years of longevity, presumably the old-timers you don't want anything, so I hope you can be happier in the future." With a deep bow, Xu Bansheng turned around and left, without dragging the mud and water at all.

After Xu Bansheng left, a soft sigh came from inside the house, and the old man's voice was accompanied by the sound of a mouthful of wine.

"Boy, although you don't want to say it, but the sword intent in your body, how can I not see it, old man? This is the unique sword intent of the Sword Qi Sect, although it is not cultivated by yourself, but it is also passed on to you by the disciples of your Sword Qi Sect. The old man has an old relationship with the Sword Qi Sect, but he can't tolerate it for your Sword Qi Sect, and he can only point you out like this. If you talk about swordsmanship, your sword qi sect is actually much stronger than the Kunlun sword sect, but it's a pity that there have been no amazing geniuses for millions of years. Now with you, I may be able to raise my eyebrows. Bai Yizhi has also been lonely for a long time, old man, I can't see the day when you become a talent, but if you are lucky, Bai Yizhi may be able to wait until you return to the void realm. At that time, you may be able to fight Bai Yiyi. With the power of the two of you, you can really restart the closed Ascension Channel. You kid, you have mixed habits, obviously from the Sword Qi Sect, but you don't take kendo seriously, and I don't know if this is a blessing or misfortune in the world. I can't see it, old man, but I have no regrets, and I finally brought you a few steps closer to the way of the sword. You don't know all of this now, but when you cultivate your own first sword intent, you'll understand everything. When the time comes, I hope you can resolve the grievances with the Sword Qi Sect for me over the years. Although the old man would have already dispersed into the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force by then, this was also the only vision of the old man's life. ”

There was another long sigh, and in the hut, there was only the sound of drinking and eating.

Xu Bansheng was already lying on the bed of the inn at this moment, the roof could not block his vision, and his eyes were full of stars.

He pondered what the old man had said to him at the last time, but he couldn't understand why the old man wouldn't let him into the hut again.

He didn't know what the old man said, and if he heard it, he was afraid that he would pause and tell the old man that he was not a disciple of the Sword Qi Sect, and that what he practiced was definitely not the way of the sword, but he was afraid that he would live up to the old man's expectations.

But there are some things that are predestined in the dark, and if everything can go smoothly, it will not be called cultivation.

Whether life is a hundred years or a thousand years, it is always just a practice. Ascension, or dispersion into the Heaven and Earth Yuan Force, is only a small part of the cultivation. No matter how powerful a monk is, even if he reaches the day of the Great Luo Golden Immortal, compared to the vast void turbulence and the vast billions of years, it is just a piece of ashes.

The starry sky flickered slightly in the sky, Xu Bansheng gradually closed his eyes, tomorrow he will have to fight with a Jindan Triple Heaven, but I don't know how much this battle can have on the spiritual root.

The sky was bright, Xu Bansheng also got up early, and still went to the betting station, or the betting amount of one million spirit stones.

Maybe it's because Xu Bansheng's performance in the second game is really lackluster, at least in the eyes of most people, he is passive defense until his opponent's true qi is exhausted before attacking, in order to challenge Jindan Sanzhongtian, his odds have risen a little. In this world, no matter where they are, there are only a few people with clear eyes, and there are only a few people who can see that the Jindan Double Heaven is actually not exhausted, but only a trick to lure the enemy.

Most of the bets are piled up on Jindan Sanchongtian, causing Xu Bansheng's odds to rise to one to two, and the odds of Jindan Sanchongtian are a new low of three games, just five to two. Moreover, as the bet progresses, this odds may decrease further.

By the time the game was about to open, the odds of Jindan Sanchongtian had reached three to one, and Xu Bansheng's odds were still one to two.

The referee still recounted everything that should be said, Xu Bansheng and Jindan Sanchongtian on the opposite side also listened silently, and each gave up his hand, and waited until the referee's figure disappeared completely, and the two of them shot together.

In the last game, Xu Bansheng's turtle shell tactics proved to be extraordinary, and gamblers saw that his loam soil mine consumed very little true qi, and his defense was extremely strong, so the vast majority of people thought that this one, in the face of stronger opponents, Xu Bansheng must still adopt such tactics.

And these people also firmly believe that Jin Dan, who has more than 20 records here, has won more than ninety percent, and is famous for his attacks, will naturally attack with the momentum of thunder.

But as soon as the two of them made a move, it was much beyond the expectations of these gamblers, and they unexpectedly found that this challenge may be the best and most exciting of the three challenges of "Lin Qian".

Because, Jindan Sanchongtian did not rush to attack, but first stabilized his own defense, and only tentatively waved a knife and tested Xu Bansheng with a move.

And Xu Bansheng, although he still threw the furnace under his feet, surrounded him in the blink of an eye, but he was not blindly passive defense, on the contrary, between the crackling and exploding sound of the loam earth mine, a colossal sword intent suddenly appeared.

The sword intent was sassy, wrapping Xu Bansheng in the middle, and the power of the sword intent revealed more than three inches outside his body, and for a while, everyone was stunned.

How can it be?!

He is just building a foundation, how can he cultivate sword intent?

But the sword intent was awe-inspiring, even the gamblers could feel the power of the sword intent through the light curtain, and the Jin Dan standing opposite Xu Bansheng was also taken aback, and subconsciously floated backwards.

Sword intent is categorically impossible to impersonate, but no one understands why Xu Bansheng was able to cultivate sword intent.

There are many people with mixed mouths, and there are always people who can think of the truth, and some people are humane: "Which sect is this son from? But before his own sword intent was achieved, this kind of donated sword intent was just a virtual appearance, and it was just used to scare and scare people on weekdays.

This remark was echoed by the vast majority of people, and it seemed to expose the truth of the sword intent.
