Chapter 271 Have We Ever Met?
Chapter 271 Have We Ever Met?
Once you're in the top ten, there's no need to push yourself so hard anymore; being too aggressive isn't a good thing.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye, and his injuries had mostly healed. However, his opponent in this battle was a Taiyi level 2 person.
Dealing with a True Immortal at the ninth level is already difficult, and now an even higher one has arrived. What's worse, a Celestial Venerable has come to watch the last few matches before the finals.
Chu Zhu, Chu Yan, and Chu Hui, the three great immortals of today, were people who existed at the very beginning of the immortal realm.
Now that one of these three is coming to watch the match, it's hard to guarantee that he won't notice something amiss.
Originally, he intended to hide it, but now... it's no big deal that he's been found out. It's just a matter of respecting or killing him. Neither way is a bad thing for Liu Jun.
"Only at the fifth level of True Immortal, it seems I can successfully enter the top ten today, hahaha!"
The person in front of me doesn't seem as humble as the one from the last match; in fact, I can even sense a hint of arrogance. However, being able to cultivate to the second level of Taiyi certainly gives him the right to be arrogant.
Liu Jun summoned his immortal sword, and without saying a word, he flashed forward and attacked. As expected, the person easily dodged the attack.
"Tsk, so slow, I thought it was something amazing."
"Little fairy, you'd better admit defeat now, or you'll hurt your pretty little face later."
Liu Jun raised his hand and lightly touched his face, then lowered his eyes and smiled faintly: "This face? The most useless thing, yet you can't hurt it."
"Draw a circle on the ground and imprison them!"
"Well, this trapping formation is not bad, but it's still a bit short of trapping me."
He easily dodged it again, as if he were toying with an ant, never taking it seriously from beginning to end.
Liu Jun unleashed several more spells, but he easily dodged them without being harmed in the slightest, not even a wisp of clothing was touched.
"Little fairy, why are you throwing out a few weak spells? How much do you look down on me? Come on, show me the move you used to defeat Old Zhao last time."
He actually noticed it?
Liu Jun sheathed his immortal sword and glanced inexplicably at a certain spot outside the arena, where the gaze remained fixed on their area.
So, it really was for her.
That move still attracted the attention of some people.
"You're so eager to see it? No rush, I have something even better here."
Liu Jun began by forming hand seals: "Six Harmonies Transformation Formation!"
A turquoise light shot into the sky, and immediately many thick vines broke through the soil, each vine blooming with many eerie red flowers, rushing straight towards the person.
Only then did the man show a slightly more serious expression, though he still maintained a nonchalant demeanor.
"That's more like it, little fairy. What kind of plant did you summon? I've never seen this flower before."
The man dodged the oncoming vines, his tone still nonchalant, even showing a hint of interest.
Liu Jun's lips curled into a smile: "You'll know when you run into them... Oh, so, I've run into them~"
These words came too late; he had already cut off a section of the vine, and the sap from the vine splashed directly onto his face.
The man's pupils immediately turned white and his body stiffened, as if he had lost his mind. Taking advantage of this moment, Liu Jun rushed forward. At the critical moment, the man quickly regained his senses and retreated sharply, blocking the long sword that was thrust at him.
"Interesting. You even managed to make me lose my composure for a moment. Little fairy, you have quite a few good things in your hands."
Seeing that his attack had failed, Liu Jun quickly retreated to create distance.
"Want it? As everyone knows, my residence is located on Chenxing Mountain. After the competition, I will be waiting for you."
"Oh, so confident. I remember you, fairy, are single?"
Liu Jun scoffed: "I'm just afraid that by then you won't be carried back on your last breath."
"You're even more arrogant than me! Is the fairy really only at the fifth level of True Immortal?"
"A mere fifth rank? Ha, I can still beat you. Didn't you want to see my moves, fellow immortal? Here you go."
"Nine Netherworlds, Devouring Heaven Waves!"
Flames, white with a hint of blue, surged toward it like a tidal wave, as if to burn everything in front of it to ashes.
The overwhelming pressure of the raging waves of fire was both terrifying and frightening, and when one tried to escape, there was nowhere to go.
What exactly is the origin of this fire?
"Vajra body protection!"
If you can't avoid it, you'll just have to tough it out.
This Vajra Bell was a treasure he obtained by chance. It could even withstand the attack of a Great Luo Golden Immortal for a moment. However, when the bone-chilling temperature came, he felt as if his soul was about to melt away. How terrifying!
"I surrender!!!"
A shattering sound came, and the next second, the terrifying temperature was withdrawn, revealing only the nearly melted bell and a ragged person standing there.
"I surrender……"
The disdain and nonchalant look in his eyes were gone forever.
"Who...are you?"
"me?"
"He's just a person who isn't free."
Liu Jun looked up at the place outside the arena, but the person had already disappeared.
Using the Nine Nether Glazed Fire twice, Liu Jun finally made it into the top ten of this Immortal Cleansing Tournament, but only the top ten.
The competition for the top three positions was fierce, and in the end, a player at the first level of the Great Luo realm won first place.
The Immortal Cleansing Gathering has officially concluded.
Liu Jun remained in the ninety-nine heavens.
A month after the conference, the top ten were summoned to a regular meeting in the celestial realm, where they met the core "officials" of the ninety-nine heavens and were assigned to celestial palaces to choose from.
Liu Jun was ranked last among these people and was assigned to a place on the edge of the Ninety-Nine Heavens. The number of celestial palaces he could choose from was also very limited, so he picked one that suited his taste and settled down there.
The celestial palace is vast and magnificent. Although it is only located on the outskirts, it contains several times more celestial energy than the outside world. It is indeed a wonderful place.
However, no sooner had they settled in than someone came to visit, and uninvited at that.
Just as Liu Jun was about to decorate the fairy palace to her liking, someone stood behind her.
Liu Jun sized up the newcomer. He was indeed a stranger, but he recognized him immediately and cupped his hands in greeting.
"May I ask which celestial being has come to visit?"
The person paused for a moment, unsure whether it was surprise or not that she was surprised that she could recognize him, and coughed lightly with her hands behind her back, replying, "Chu Zhu".
"So you are the Immortal Venerable Chuzhu. What brings you to my humble immortal palace?"
Chu Zhu glanced at the person in front of her indifferently, and after a moment of silence, asked, "What connection do you have with Lord Yan Zhi?"
Liu Jun raised an eyebrow: "Yan Zhi? We know each other, so what?"
How dare you address the Divine Lord by his name?
It seems that it's not just a simple matter of knowing each other. Moreover, this little fairy's aura is remarkably similar to that of a divine lord, yet she clearly looks like just a true immortal.
To date, Lord Yanzhi is the only person whose strength is comparable to that of Lord Sifeng.
The God of Sifeng disappeared without a trace 50,000 years ago. Both the Immortal Realm and the Divine Realm urgently needed a support, and the God of Yanzhi was the most promising candidate to become the new God of Sifeng. He was respected and revered by everyone in the Immortal Realm.
And now, suddenly this person has appeared, and using...
"What is the name of the flame hidden within you?"
Liu Jun looked at him and suddenly smiled inexplicably: "Immortal Venerable, did you come here because of this matter?"
"Yes."
His answer was straightforward.
Liu Jun raised one hand, looked down at his palm, and a cluster of flames instantly appeared.
"Its name is... Nine Nether Glazed Fire."
As he spoke, he reached out and offered it to Chu Zhu: "Does the Immortal Venerable want it?"
Chu Zhu stared at the cluster of fire in her hand for a long time, then suddenly grabbed her wrist, and his oppressive aura followed.
"Where did you get this?!"
But the person in front of him remained completely unaffected, looking calmly into his amber eyes.
"What, is the Immortal Venerable curious about its origin?"
Is he a new face?
It didn't seem so. When Liu Jun saw his face, he was surprised. He was surprised that one of the three venerables of the immortal realm was actually a familiar face.
"Chuzhu, is this your name now...?"
A remarkably calm sentence caused the amber pupils of the person in front of him to shrink sharply, and the hand gripping her wrist tightened its hold without warning.
"you you……"
Liu Jun smiled and stepped forward, gently stroking his brow with her other hand.
"Long time no see, Azhu."
