Chapter 260: The identity of the little old man
When everyone heard this, they looked at each other, and said in their hearts that they would bet on the Linggu Competition, which is too nonsense, right?
Seeing that everyone was hesitating, Zhou Laozu clapped his hands and said: "Come on, come on, come on, this ancestor opens the handicap, there is no upper limit, and you can bet more!"
Yutai Qingyun thought for a while, took out a cloth bag and handed it over, and said decisively: "Okay! Then I will give out 100 medium-grade spirit stones, and bet on the Qingyue faction to win!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone shouted, 100 medium-grade spirit stones is not a small amount, although most of the Jindan monks present can take it out, but they also have to think about it, after all, this is not a low-grade spirit stone, and it is not a matter of taking out tens of thousands of them casually.
Seeing that Tantai Qingyun was so refreshing, Zhou Laozu laughed: "Yun'er, you little girl is really straightforward, come and come, what's going on with the others?
The rest of the Jindan monks were in their hearts, knowing that if they didn't bet, they were afraid of annoying this infant ancestor, so they took out spirit stones or precious things to bet one after another.
Not to mention, this Zhou ancestor is quite fair, whether it is a spirit stone, a spirit pill, rare materials, or a battle merit value, they are all recorded on a jade slip one by one, and then a copy of the jade slip as a voucher is issued to the party, so as to receive the reward after revealing the results afterwards.
As a result, there are a total of five sects available for betting, and they are listed according to the number of bets - Ling Xiao Sect, Demon Demon Sect, Qingyue Sect, Wind and Fire God Sect, and Min Yue Sect and Xiaoshan Sect.
Needless to say, the first three families have been relatively good in cultivation since the ancient spirit valley, but because the Ling Xiao Sect and the Demon Demon Sect are more powerful than the Qingyue faction, they are favored by most people; However, it seems that there is a certainty of winning this time, so the two joined forces to bet, but except for the two of them, no one else is optimistic.
After the bet was placed, the total gambling money was that the ancestor would also be moved, and the ancestor patted the storage bag that week. He smiled and said: "Okay! This time there is really no shortage of bets, rest assured, this ancestor has a good reputation, and he will never run away with things." Next, let's continue to bet, there are also formation competitions, alchemy competitions, etc., it doesn't matter if you bet more or less, the focus is on participation!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone smiled wryly. However, the Linggu Competition is the highlight of this miscellaneous competition, followed by the formation competition, and everyone will make some bets according to the information they have.
Just as the Jindan monks were betting in the clouds, Zhang Di had already received the reward for entering the semi-finals - one hundred spirit stones, turned around and walked out of the arena.
Passing through the bustling crowd, he fixed his eyes on the strange little old man who had just performed amazingly in the arena, and his steps seemed to be slow and fast to follow this man. And the little old man seemed to sense that someone was following. Although he walked staggeringly, he was actually very fast. In the blink of an eye, they walked out of the valley and came to a secluded and uninhabited grove.
Suddenly, he turned around, and a pair of eyes that were originally godless suddenly released a light, and the momentum around him was also released with a bang, blowing a large number of fallen leaves and tumbling outward. He shouted, "Your Excellency, what do you mean by following me all the time?"
Zhang Di stood three feet away in front of him, and the tumbling leaves formed a strong wind to blow on him, but he was blocked by an invisible aura.
Zhang Di arched his hand and smiled slightly: "This senior doesn't have to be nervous. In Xia Wang Qishan, Fang Cai is at the second-grade spiritual field near the seniors, and has been watching the seniors farming, and the second-grade spiritual valley of the predecessors is grafted on the third-grade spiritual valley, as well as the craftsmanship of farming, and I want to get acquainted with the seniors, don't be surprised by the offense!"
The strange old man squinted his eyes and looked up and down for a moment, and when he saw that there was no one around, he suddenly laughed: "Wang Qishan? Hehe, I don't think it's your real name, right?"
"Senior, this is indeed not a real name. "How many of the casual cultivators who came to participate in the Linggu Competition will report their real names, Zhang Di also admitted it very humbly, knowing that these strange people have strange tempers, so they should follow the other party's words first, and wait until they find out their temper.
Unexpectedly, the strange old man's eyes suddenly widened, and his confused look disappeared, and the whole person released a fierce aura, which shocked Zhang Di and couldn't help but be on guard.
"Zhang Di, I heard that you are a favorite candidate for my niece Jiang Yan, and I am going to recommend you to participate in the planting of Wupin Spirit Valley. But I look at your performance today, it's just ordinary, if you can't get into the finals, I don't think you will live in this world!" said the strange old man unhurriedly.
"What?" Zhang Di's face changed, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he reached into his arms, holding the Xuantie carving knife of the medium-grade magic weapon, at such a close distance, only the Taiyi Xuantie Sword Technique had the power to fight, and he was immediately ready to make a move, and at the same time, his eyes flashed with the Qi Technique, carefully looking at the opponent's strength.
I saw that the spiritual power of this person's body was churning, and he was a master in the late stage of foundation building, which suddenly made Zhang Di so nervous that his palms were in cold sweat, such a master He has no grasp of confrontation, if he really fights, only one percent of the certainty can get out.
However, although he was anxious in his heart, he looked calm on the surface, looked at the other party coldly, and asked, "Who are you? Why did you take my life?"
Seeing that Zhang Di was so calm, the strange old man also nodded secretly, collected the momentum around him, and returned to the appearance of an ordinary person, and said: "Jiang Yan is the daughter of the leader of my Hongli Business Alliance, and I am Master Bai of the Hongli Business Alliance who is specially responsible for the research of Linggu, and the matter of Wupin Linggu is carried out under my auspices, and anyone who wants to join this plan must get my nod." As for taking your life, hehe, it depends on whether you can enter the finals, if you can't get in, you are naturally not qualified to join the Wupin Linggu plan, in order to prevent leaks, I have to take your life!"
Hearing this person say this, Zhang Di was slightly relieved, since he is a Hongli person, he is more reasonable, and he will not kill people indiscriminately for no reason, although the other party's cultivation is higher than his own, but as long as he draws the line, he can meet the other party's requirements, and it will not bring danger.
So he touched his nose and said with a wry smile half-jokingly: "I didn't expect Zhang to be on Hongli's assessment list in a daze, hey! When the Jiang shopkeeper asked me to join, he didn't force each other viciously like you, if I had known that I might lose my life, I would definitely not agree." ”
Master Bai sank his face and said, "Don't be poor with me, Jiang Yan didn't greet me in advance when she found you, she found a total of three people before, and you were the last one to pass my test." Boy, get ready, we'll see you in the rematch in seven days!" said that, he turned around and wanted to leave.
Seeing that this person had no intention of killing himself for the time being, Zhang Di also wanted to set up some more information, and hurriedly called: "Hey, Master Bai, if I sneak away, do you have a way to find me?"
Master Bai turned around suddenly, looked at Zhang Di with a sharp gaze, and suddenly raised his hand, and two black things flew straight towards Zhang Di with a strong wind.
Zhang Di had already taken precautions, and as soon as his body turned, he was about to dodge these two black things, and suddenly saw what this was, and his face couldn't help but change.
I saw that there were two human heads, suspended in mid-air, and the eyes of dead fish looked at the ground, unwilling and frightened to freeze in them.
"These are the first two of the three people Jiang Yan is looking for, one didn't pass my assessment, and the other sneaked away, and I took the head. I hope your head doesn't become the third!" As soon as the words fell, Master Bai made a gesture of his hand, and the two heads flew back, and his own figure flickered slightly, then crossed Zhang Di's side, sneered, and the figure flew dozens of feet away and disappeared into the grove.
Zhang Di stood there, didn't move for a long time, and after a while, he looked up at the gradually darkening sky, and secretly sneered in his heart: "Master Bai, no one can threaten me to do things Zhang Di, I will make a note of this matter today, let's see you in the rematch!"
Having said that, his back was soaked in cold sweat, and it had been a long time since Hao Ren's threat had encountered such a formidable opponent as Master Bai.
Unconsciously, he felt that although the huge power of Hongli Business Alliance could be used to do a lot of things, the unspoken rules behind it were also extremely terrifying, and if it could not bring enough benefits to the other party, it would fall into a situation from which it would never recover.
In this way, it is really hard to say what will happen in the rematch! )
