Chapter 253 Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ Staff Technique
Chapter 253 Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ Staff Technique
Two times?
Fang Chang was dumbstruck by the pagoda spirit’s price.
“Why do I need to pay double to challenge Huang Shi?”
Although Fang Chang loved to battle, he was no fool.
This was the projection of Huang Shi in his youth. How could he possibly match up to him?
Don’t be fooled into thinking that a Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage cultivator was all that. In front of Huang Shi, he was just a fleeting cloud.
Thousands of years ago, there had been a Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage prodigy in Middle Ground who had arrogantly challenged the Jixia Academy’s authority.
The Jixia Academy had sent out a Golden Body Eight Refinement Stage cultivator who had completely pulverized that arrogant prodigy.
His golden core had been shattered to bits.
It was rumored that the Golden Body Eight Refinement Stage cultivator was Huang Shi’s in-name disciple.
A Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage cultivator could indeed be touted as a prodigy gifted by the heavens and a rare sight in the Eastern Wilderness.
The emergence of a Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage cultivator might occur only once every few hundred years across the entire five regions. But in front of Huang Shi, this was nothing to boast about! Fang Chang knew that if he fought with that boy again, he would once again suffer a terrible defeat.
Spend money to be beaten up? And double the previous amount? Does it mean I will be beaten up twice as badly?
What kind of reasoning was that?
Fang Chang didn’t understand. The Pagoda Spirit explained. “According to the rules, all battles are random.
“The God of War Pagoda has its own rules. I already spent a lot of resources to help you get your chosen opponent for the previous battle.
“I cannot break the rules again for you. If you wish to challenge Huang Shi again, you have to bet double the amount.
“You just need to successfully beat Huang Shi, and these 2,000 God of War points will be returned to you.” That’s right. If I can beat Huang Shi, I will be able to get back those God of War points...
Fang Chang’s face fell. As if he could ever beat Huang Shi!
Humiliating, just humiliating!
He thought he was some top-level prodigy just because he had managed to reach the Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage.
But he couldn’t even beat a five-year-old Huang Shi!
I don’t deserve to be Divine Firmament’s First Senior Brother!
“I think I better challenge a Five-Star Prodigy first!”
While rubbing his tired eyes, this big, burly man decided to face up to reality and take a step back. Double the betting amount? He truly couldn’t afford it!
Upon seeing that Fang Chang didn’t take the bait, Ye Qingcang, who was on the seventh floor of the God of War Pagoda, couldn’t help feeling rather scornful. Ai, he’s a fake fan!
Are you still considered a fan if you are unwilling to spend money on your idol? Don’t you feel embarrassed at all?
You want to challenge a Five-Star Prodigy? Alright, I will give you a good one!
“Alright, pairing a Five-Star Prodigy...”
“Pairing successful. Battle begins!”
Following that, the light on the God of War platform dimmed, and a youth in his 20s appeared in front of Fang Chang.
The youth had a long staff behind him and was shrouded in golden lightning. His fiery aura rose high into the skies.
Fang Chang saw a vaguely familiar face through the flashing lightning.
“Eh, is this Martial Uncle Azure Lotus?”
A pleased expression crossed Fang Chang’s face.
“I am pretty lucky! If I can beat up Martial Uncle on this platform and record it down for Master to watch, he will be very pleased.
“Perhaps he won’t ever make me copy the rule book again as a punishment. But... I thought that Martial Uncle doesn’t practice lightning arts? I thought that he only focused on cultivating his physical body?” “This Martial Uncle is shrouded in golden divine lightning, and his aura feels so familiar.”
Suddenly, Fang Chang caught a glimpse of the God of War Tablet out of the corner of his eye. He noticed the name on the fifth position.
Wait a minute! Why is Martial Uncle Azure Lotus’ name in fifth place?
It must be pointed out that even his Master hadn’t managed to break into the top five!
Oh no!
A deep sense of foreboding crept over his heart.
The youth had already drawn out the golden staff behind him.
“If I, Chu Longhe, had not been born, the way of the staff would be shrouded in darkness! Under my mighty staff, all will tremble and moan in fear!”
Lightning crackled and flashed all around the youth before forming a dazzling battle armor.
He suddenly disappeared from the spot and reappeared a second later above Fang Chang’s head. His golden divine staff came swinging down.
“Experience my Supreme Ocean Staff: Yellow Dragon Attack!”
Roar
A dragon’s roar echoed through the skies. A golden divine dragon shot out of the staff, going straight for Fang Chang with teeth bared and claws out.
Its aura was so magnificent that Fang Chang felt like he was faced with a real dragon. His entire body was completely suppressed.
Chu Longhe’s powers were far beyond Fang Chang’s estimations. This Martial Uncle of his was actually so strong when he was young!
Sparks flew as his Fire Dragon Spear barely blocked the force of the staff.
Chu Longhe then swung his staff around in some intricate patterns, launching wave after wave of attacks.
The air was filled with the afterimages of the swinging staff.
“Supreme Ocean Staff: Sky-Propping Pillar!
“Supreme Ocean Staff: Yellow Dragon Attack!
“Supreme Ocean Staff: Overturning Seas And Rivers!
“Supreme Ocean Staff: Domination Over A Thousand Armies!
“Supreme Ocean Staff: Prevailing Over All!”
In the hands of the projection, the golden divine staff exhibited a mind-blowing power.
Move after move, the staff was agile and powerful.
Every single attack was a heavy blow to Fang Chang. Intense vibrations shot through his entire body. Cracks had even appeared on his Fire Dragon Spear.
“Young prodigy, stay strong! The skill difference between you and Chu Longhe is not insurmountable!
“As long as you can beat him, you will have the right to choose your favored legacy technique.
“This Supreme Ocean Staff is a five-star legacy technique in the God of War Pagoda. If you beat this projection, you will have the right to learn it!”
Fang Chang felt warm all over upon hearing the Pagoda Spirit’s words of encouragement His fighting spirit was renewed and surged through his body.
He defended himself from the young Martial Uncle’s frenzied attack, resolutely bracing his spear against the blows. Thereafter... the attacks grew even more vicious!
Ye Qingcang smiled at the scene.
He was being beaten to a pulp but refused to give up. Was this what it was like to be young? So touching!
Some popcorn and snacks would be great at this moment.
Ai, I wonder what Tian’er is up to now.
Ye Qingcang stroked his beard. To be honest, he was not that interested in most of the prodigies in this world. Those prodigies were nothing if placed in the Celestial World. To Ye Qingcang, watching them battle was just a way to pass his time.
In Ye Qingcang’s opinion, the number of exceptional prodigies that had caught his eye over the past 10,000 years could be counted in one hand.
Amongst them was Shen Tian, who was as handsome as he had been in his youth. This Shen Tian was naturally the focal point of his attention.
Ye Qingcang sighed. He did kind of missed Tian’er now that he was not around.
“Ahchoo!”
A sudden sneeze rang out in the Divine Firmament Tribulation Valley.
This was the most mysterious part of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground and the core of the region.
th
Lightning flashed across this valley all year round. But it was just ordinary lightning.
Even so, if one was lucky, they might see other rare types of lightning. They might even see the legendary Five Elements Divine Lightning or the Mixed Divine Lightning. When Zhang Longyuan was still a disciple, he had obtained a Mixed Divine Lightning power source at this very place.
If not for that, it would have been very difficult for him to achieve his Mixed Divine Lightning Constitution during a time when the Decalamity chapter was lost.
But Zhang Longyuan had brought Shen Tian to the Tribulation Valley today not to find rare types of divine lightning. It was for something else.
It concerned the Evil Spirit Sect Saint!
