Chapter 53: The Final Battle, Rune Showdown, and Stalemate
At this time, the sun is slanting westward, and it is almost evening.
The white-robed Huafan disciple stood up and announced loudly: "Xue Chu won this battle, and after an hour of cultivation as usual, the final battle of this martial arts will be held!"
Xue Chucai didn't get out of the ring, but sat directly on it, meditating and pranayama.
Everyone in the audience talked about it, but they didn't leave.
An hour is fleeting, the sun has set, and the sky is dark.
Xue Chucai didn't know what pill he took halfway, and his originally somewhat sluggish expression slowly recovered, and the true qi in his body also recovered a lot, but his mental fatigue was not relieved in this short period of time.
As soon as the time came, Li Mu stepped into the ring and stood opposite Xue Chucai.
Although the two stood face to face for the first time, they had heard of each other's fame, and they both regarded each other as their biggest enemies.
There are a lot of similarities between the two: they are both new disciples, they are both good at their body skills, and they both rely on a spirit rune to defeat powerful opponents...... The most important thing is that both of them have a strong desire for first place.
The official discipleship quota has a strong attraction for any innate disciple. Although the man in the green robe promised that he could walk the Immortal Bridge, no one could guarantee that he would be able to pass the test of this bridge. To be able to obtain an official disciple quota here is naturally the best.
Because of Li Mu's identity, Xue Chu was reluctant to speak, and Li Mu had no intention of saying more.
After standing in the ring, he didn't even draw his sword, he directly took out a few spirit runes, and prepared slowly.
Xue Chu saw that he didn't even mean to fight, so he directly wanted to use the spirit rune, his pupils shrank slightly, and then he took out a few spirit runes without saying a word.
The audience looked at each other, when did the spirit runes become so cheap? Looking at the movements of the two people, it seemed that they had more spirit runes and more power than whom.
The white-robed Huafan disciple saw the two of them directly take out the spirit runes and prepare to fight, and his eyes also became a little weird.
Only the blue-robed man on the attic terrace on the other side closed his eyes uninterestedly after seeing it.
Li Mu successively activated the water curtain talisman, golden armor talisman, golden sword talisman, and Xuanhuo talisman in his hand to stimulate the water curtain and golden armor to protect his body, and the golden sword and Xuanhuo attacked Xue Chucai.
Xue Chucai did not show weakness, and also sacrificed several spirit runes with different effects. Looking at the flickering aura and sigils, they should all be within three thousand small runes.
The Xuanhuo Talisman and Golden Sword Talisman sent out by Li Mu collided with the light flame of the other party's Spirit Rune and turned into ashes. Xue Chucai was slightly stunned when he saw this scene, and he couldn't figure it out, but before he could be happy, he saw Li Mu take out a few spirit runes from his arms.
When Li Mu used True Qi to stimulate the spirit rune, he suddenly remembered that Jin Chong had told him that if he wanted to make the spirit rune exert the greatest power, generally speaking, it was necessary to use Yuan Force to stimulate it. I know my own situation, every time I use a spirit rune, it will be destroyed immediately. But this Xue Chu had only experienced the previous battle, and the yuan power in his body should have been exhausted, but he didn't know why he could still use the spirit runes so skillfully, and those spirit runes had not been damaged once.
Xue Chucai was also wondering, Li Mu also knew that it was impossible to use the spirit rune after only a year of entry, but looking at his actions in using the spirit rune, it was clearly very skilled and easy, and those spirit runes that looked brand new could only be used once for some reason.
The two of them had doubts in their hearts, but the movements of their hands were not slow at all, and a spirit rune was thrown out, but neither could hurt the other.
The audience watched the two throw spirit runes at each other without pity, and many people showed jealous and hateful looks, but in fact, for many people, even if they have spirit runes, they can't use them at all.
The Huafan disciple's eyes were also a little burning as he stared at the battle group of the two, and the spirit runes dazzled his eyes.
It's just that this much-anticipated competition is too boring.
The two of you and I threw out the spirit runes without hesitation, the stage crackled non-stop, and all kinds of light reflected each other, in this dim twilight, it looked very good.
But since the beginning of the war, the figures of the two have stood in place, without the slightest movement, and the two of them have a layer of shields around them and another layer of shields on the periphery, but they can't hurt each other at all.
Time passed, and night fell.
Li Mu's face was as usual, and he was still pulling out the spirit runes one by one outside, stimulating them and then throwing them at Xue Chucai. The shield formed by the golden armor talisman and the water curtain talisman around him actually dissipated on their own because it had been too long, and he continued to make up for it with new spirit runes without hesitation.
Xue Chucai's face on the other side was not so good-looking.
Generally speaking, one of Li Mu's spirit runes can only be used once, but one of his spirit runes can be used about three times. That is to say, Li Mu used three spirit runes to consume one of his talismans. But after more than an hour, Li Mu threw nearly a hundred spirit runes, and it took him dozens to barely carry them.
But seeing that there were no more spirit runes left that he could use, Li Mu still took the spirit runes outside without looking at them, and he couldn't help but panic a little in his heart.
In fact, Xue Chucai also has his own troubles, he still has a few extremely powerful spirit runes in his arms at this time, once they are used, they are not something that Li Mu can resist at all, and he can immediately take out the victory. But in the previous competition with Liu Xianyuan, he spent a lot of energy and yuan power, and barely relied on a Hui Yuan Dan to make up for some yuan power, but the lost energy was not something that could be recovered in a short time. Moreover, after more than an hour, his yuan power has also been consumed a lot, and it is impossible to urge those powerful spirit runes anymore.
However, at this time, Li Mu's eyes still did not change in the slightest, and after using so many spirit runes, not only did he not see any flesh pain on his face, but his spirit runes seemed to be endless, and there was no time to use them up at all.
Xue Chucai touched the last spirit rune in his arms that could be used, gritted his teeth, and stimulated it.
Li Mu's expression on the other side of him finally changed a little, and there was a bit of helplessness in this change.
What Xue Chu inspired was the golden light talisman that ranked high among the three thousand small talismans and had extremely strong defensive power.
In fact, after watching Xue Chucai's competition for so many days, Li Mu dispelled his previous idea of a quick victory.
First, Xue Chucai's speed was not inferior to him, and it was impossible to catch him off guard; second, although Xue Chucai's talisman was damaged, his other powerful spirit talisman made Li Mu quite jealous, and he didn't want to rush halfway by himself, and a giant sword suddenly appeared on his head. At that time, he was not Liu Xianyuan, and he would not be able to compete with that giant sword at all; third, this Xue Chucai didn't know what magic weapons and other things were hidden on his body, if he was close, I was afraid that there would be unforeseen dangers.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Li Mu gave up the idea of close-quarters assassination, and instead directly used the spirit rune, and competed with this Xue Chucai in the spirit rune.
Now it seems that there is nothing wrong with my own ideas. The spirit rune on Xue Chucai's body is indeed no match for himself. But in this way, he will have to face the golden light talisman that makes all the disciples of Huafan have a headache and are helpless.
Li Mu looked at Xue Chucai, who was sitting in the golden light talisman with a face of "You are here to beat me", and his face couldn't help but show a look of crying and laughing.
The current situation is that he can't help Xue Chucai, but Xue Chucai doesn't dare to put away the golden light talisman to defeat him.
The audience looked at each other again, and this year's battle for the first place in the innate martial arts had evolved into such a situation, which was also beyond everyone's expectations.
Li Mu tried to throw a few golden sword talismans on it, but they all had little effect, but the shield of the golden light talisman shook slightly, and the light dimmed a little, but it couldn't hurt its root at all.
This is also the relationship between Li Mu's spirit runes are all half-finished products, and the power is more than half smaller than the real spirit runes. However, Li Mu estimated that it was a complete golden sword talisman, which was urged by the disciples of Huafan, and if he wanted to break the shield of this golden light talisman, it should also take dozens of pieces. The defensive power of this top-ranked spirit rune is far from being able to be shaken by the golden sword runes ranked in the bottom three thousand.
Li Mu was helpless, so he had to ask, "Senior Nephew Xue, do you recognize losing?"
Xue Chucai said lightly: "This Senior Uncle Li, if you can break my golden light talisman shield, I will immediately admit defeat." ”
Li Mu rolled his eyes and looked at the Huafan disciples in the audience.
At this time, the sky had already darkened, and the hundreds of night pearls buried in the martial arts field emitted a faint light, illuminating the venue as if it were day, and the expressions on everyone's faces were subtlely visible.
The Huafan disciple waved his hand, indicating that he was helpless.
Li Mu simply put away the spirit rune, also erected a shield beside him, and sat down in place, ignoring Xue Chucai on the other side.
The audience has been talking since the beginning, and at this time, seeing that the two of them died down, they couldn't help each other, and they stopped abusing and discussing for a while, and quieted down.
But it was only quiet for a moment, and immediately someone shouted: "What kind of competition is this, you guys fight quickly!"
"Yes, yes, how can you do that!" chimed in.
"I've never seen such a strange competition!"
"Do these two have to sit until the other admits defeat?"
“......”
In the midst of everyone's discussion and abuse, the two people on the stage did not say a word, and continued to meditate without even raising their eyelids, with a thick face.
The green-robed man in the attic was annoyed by the noise of everyone, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the two people sitting opposite each other on the stage, each with a shield to protect himself, and he was a little stunned for a while.
After half an hour passed like this, the two people on the stage still didn't react, and the man in the green robe had no choice but to speak.
"You two don't want to split the winners?"
When Li Mu and Xue Chu heard the voice of the green-robed man, they both opened their eyes, stood up, and saluted the green-robed man from afar.
Then Li Mu spoke first: "Senior Uncle Qiyu, it's not that I don't want to win, it's really that Senior Nephew Xue's Golden Light Talisman shield is too powerful, and the disciple is helpless." ”
Xue Chucai also replied: "The disciple also has no way to take Senior Uncle Li's Spirit Rune Shield. ”
The blue-robed man frowned when he heard the words of the two.
