Chapter 218 Negligence
The donkey may seem to be moving slowly, but in fact it is not slow at all.
Staggeringly, Zhang Chu had already arrived near Lingyun Cave two days before the battle between Xiongba and Nie Renwang.
After arriving here, Zhang Chu no longer mixed with those gangsters. He rode his donkey and left alone.
There are already people from the Tianxia Society on guard outside the Big Buddha. The duel between Xiongba and Nie Renwang is not only about the life and death of the two, but also about the direction of the martial arts world.
If someone did something during their duel, it might not matter to Nie Renwang, as he was alone anyway.
However, it is not so good for Xiongba.
He has great ambitions and wants to dominate the world, unify the world and sit on the supreme throne.
But what if Xiongba, who had just emerged from the underworld, founded the Tianxiahui?
In the eyes of those famous sects and martial arts nobles, it was just a small fight and they did not take the Tianxiahui seriously at all.
It is extremely difficult to recruit masters from the underworld and the martial arts world, as others simply do not take the Tianxiahui seriously.
The world of Fengyun is a martial arts world with a touch of fantasy.
In this world, there are so many people who have founded gangs, just like the number of carps crossing the river. How can Xiongba prove that his world will last longer and become more powerful?
Naturally, he would become more famous by stepping on the heads of famous people.
With greater fame, more talented people will naturally come to invest.
And who is the most famous in the martial arts world today?
Speaking of the previous generation, they are naturally the reclusive sword saints Dugu Jian and Tianjian Wuming.
However, Xiongba was also very self-aware and knew that he was no match for them.
It’s better to pick soft persimmons.
And in today's martial arts world, among the martial arts masters of the same generation as him, who has the greatest reputation?
Needless to say, they are of course "the blazing flaming Lin on the top of the South Mountain, and the cold drinking snow deep in the North Sea". Duan Shuai, the master of the Nanlin Sword, and Nie Renwang, the mad knife of the North.
Nanlin Sword Master Duan Shuai has disappeared from the martial arts world. No one knows where he is hiding or whether he is dead.
It is clear from the fact that Duan Lang had been wandering around the world since he was very young that in the hearts of the people in the world, Duan Shuai was already a dead person by default.
Otherwise, how could the biological father let his son, who was only a few years old, become a wanderer in the world?
Since we can't find Duan Shuai, we can only look for Nie Renwang, the Northern Drinking Mad Blade.
Although Nie Renwang lived in seclusion, he did not do it completely, as he had a daughter-in-law who liked to enjoy wealth and glory and was admired by everyone.
Therefore, it is very easy to find Nie Renwang.
Well, with Xiongba's careful planning, he finally managed to seduce Nie Renwang's wife, and used this as an excuse to force Nie Renwang to have an open duel with him.
As long as he wins, he will naturally become famous in the world.
No matter what, in the underworld, the one with the bigger fist is right!
If he could defeat Nie Renwang, or even kill him, Xiongba could prove to the world that his fist was hard and big enough.
It is enough to make the Tianxia Association famous and attract masters from the martial arts world to join.
Xiongba must be extremely cautious about this matter and must not make any mistakes during the duel.
He must win this battle, and win beautifully.
Therefore, a few days before the duel, he gathered the gang members of the Tianxiahui here, blocked the duel site first, and inspected it to prevent the secret enemies from tampering with the duel site and ruining his plan.
Therefore, when Zhang Chu just approached the duel venue, the Tianxiahui gang members who were on guard and scouting outside had already come to meet him.
"Hello, Taoist Priest,"
"Master, are you here to watch the competition between my Heroic Clan Leader of Tianxia Hui and Nie Renwang, the Northern Drinking Mad Blade?"
Seeing Zhang Chu nod slightly, the Tianxiahui member in charge of the reception quickly pointed to one side and said, "That's the viewing area that Tianxiahui has prepared for all of you martial arts friends!"
Zhang Chu nodded and looked at the place he pointed at. "Thank you, my friend!"
"The competition will not start until the day after tomorrow, so I'll just go around and look around first!"
"Master, please do as you please!"
The members of Tianxiahui are still very polite.
Along the way, Zhang Chu, who was riding on a donkey, saw many members of the Tianxiahui telling the gangsters who came here about this matter.
Just from this point, we can know that Xiongba seems to be certain that he will win.
That's right, he must win, if he loses, he will be in big trouble.
It doesn’t mean that he, Xiongba, is no longer powerful just because he lost. He is still a great hero in the martial arts world and a peerless master.
Rather, if he loses, he will no longer be the most powerful master of this generation in the martial arts world.
If you are not the most powerful master, then what is there to join?
So what if you have a lot of gang members under you?
This is a martial arts world with a bit of fantasy, where one person can defeat thousands of troops!
With King Nie Ren pressing down on him, what does it matter even if the world becomes bigger?
When he has annexed other martial arts forces, even if those martial arts worlds are no match for him, he can still ask Nie Renwang for help.
Anyway, Xiongba was defeated by Nie Renwang.
I could beat him then, and I can still beat him now.
When the time comes, soldiers will fight against soldiers and generals will fight against generals. What is there to be afraid of?
As for how to invite Nie Renwang out?
This matter is too simple for those sects with a long history.
No matter what, the Nie family is one of the powerful martial arts families, and they have too many personal connections of all kinds.
Just like the Baijian Villa, which appears to have nothing to do with the Nie family, the ancestors of the two families were friends.
Although this friendship is invisible and useless under normal circumstances, when the military strength reaches a certain level, Baijian Villa will become the external aid of the Nie family.
The prerequisite is that the Nie family has a certain level of strength. After all, it is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to provide timely assistance.
Zhang Chu rode his donkey and turned around. As long as he didn't go to the place where Xiongba and Nie Renwang were competing, no one from the Tianxia Association would stop him.
Looking at the giant Buddha that was more than ten feet tall, and whose feet were more than one meter tall, he had no intention of going forward to worship.
How could Zhang Chu, a Taoist of pure descent, possibly worship Buddha?
Even if the zombie world has declined even more, or even become the world of the end of the law, he is still a Taoist priest whose name and Taoist name are recorded in the list of Maoshan disciples.
The Maoshan Taoists belong to the Shangqing lineage, so aren't they the true Taoists?
Zhang Chu knew the truth about this matter, otherwise how could Lin Fengjiao pass on the secret of Maoshan to him?
Only Zhang Chu is a disciple of Maoshan, which is the reason why Lin Fengjiao passed the Maoshan secrets to him.
Looking at the giant Buddha, Zhang Chu shook his head and looked around the Buddha.
Lingyun Cave is just around the giant Buddha, and Zhang Chu wants to take a look at it.
Standing in place, Zhang Chu had no intention of using his spiritual sense, but instead sensed silently.
But what’s the use?
He didn't sense the existence of the Fire Qilin at all, and even his perception didn't extend too far into the Lingyun Cave before it was interrupted.
It seemed that there was an inexplicable force in Lingyun Cave that was suppressing people's perception.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chu's eyes suddenly lit up and he secretly exclaimed in his heart, "Dragon Vein?" Before coming to Lingyun Cave, Zhang Chu had been thinking about the Fire Kirin and ignored the real treasure in Lingyun Cave.
I didn't remember it until this life.
The dragon vein, according to legend in this world, is a treasure that can suppress destiny.
Others may not understand, but how could Zhang Chu not understand how important luck is?
Even those saintly sects need precious treasures to suppress their luck.
A treasure that can suppress destiny is extremely rare!
To Zhang Chu, this kind of thing is even more important than the Fire Qilin to a certain extent.
Zhang Chu even guessed why Nie Feng, who had learned the magic sword, was fine when he held the dragon vein. It was very likely that the dragon vein suppressed his luck.
If your luck is not lost and remains at its peak, you will naturally not be easily possessed by the devil.
Let's count carefully, when was the time when Nie Feng became possessed by the devil?
Wasn't it when he was at the lowest point in his life?
When you are at the lowest point in your life, isn’t it because your luck has slipped away too much that you end up at the lowest point?
The dragon vein that has the function of suppressing qi was carried by Nie Feng on his body. It suppressed his fading qi and naturally helped him stay awake.
As for the dragon vein suppressing his inner demons? That is nonsense.
Thinking of this, a flash of heat appeared in Zhang Chu's eyes.
A treasure that can suppress luck is extremely precious not only in the Fengyun world, but even in the primitive world, it can be called a treasure.
Think about it, what kind of treasures are there in the ancient world that can suppress destiny?
At the very least, they are all at the level of innate spiritual treasures or acquired treasures.
As for the others, they have no effect in suppressing luck at all.
Even though the dragon vein is very fragile, or even can be damaged by others, that cannot change the fact that the dragon vein is a treasure that can suppress luck.
"It seems that there is one more reason to come here!"
A trace of determination flashed in Zhang Chu's eyes, "I will definitely get the dragon vein!"
“Even if the current Emperor Shitian came out and stood in front of me, he would not be able to stop me.”
That is a treasure that can suppress luck. Not to mention Zhang Chu, a small cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, even if he is really an immortal-level being, he would be jealous.
However, Zhang Chu had no confidence in how to get the dragon vein.
It is a mysterious existence, and it is not easy to obtain it.
After walking around here twice and looking at the scenery, Zhang Chu rode away on his donkey.
It is not the right time yet. There are too many people near Lingyun Cave. Maybe there is Indra who uses Xiongba as a pawn.
Zhang Chu has been here for too long, and it is very likely that he will attract the attention of the old silver coin.
It is better to avoid confronting a madman who enjoys toying with the world if possible.
Zhang Chu found an inn nearby and moved in directly.
Just wait until the day of the competition and then rush over. It’s not far anyway.
Sitting upright in the guest room of the inn, even if he did not spread his spiritual awareness, it would cover the place.
Nothing in the inn could escape Zhang Chu's eyes and ears.
Sometimes, being too sensitive isn't a good thing.
After silently practicing the Changsheng Martial Arts and feeling the warmth in his body, Zhang Chu directly took out more than ten test tubes from the storage space and placed them in front of him.
If the Sword Master saw this, he would definitely say, "This Taoist priest is a liar. What potion is he out of!"
"What are these potions in front of you?"
Looking at the more than ten tubes of medicine in front of him, Zhang Chu did not hesitate and directly opened the stopper of the tube and poured the blood and qi enhancing medicine inside directly into his mouth.
The medicine went down the esophagus, and a feeling of heat appeared directly in Zhang Chu's body.
Changsheng's martial arts started to work immediately, and his energy and blood were slowly strengthened under the effect of the medicine.
Only when his Qi and blood become stronger can he expel the corpse Qi from his blood faster and recover to a normal human body.
But in just a few moments, the medicinal power in the potion had been completely refined.
Feeling the slightly increased energy and blood, Zhang Chu couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The potency of the medicine is still too weak for him!
There is no sense of improvement at all.
Only a stronger potion could increase his energy and blood strength faster.
However, it was good enough that he could use mundane items to make a potion that was still useful to him.
It's much better than not being able to enhance the energy and blood at all.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chu became more and more looking forward to the progress of the research on Bai Hou.
If a potion that enhances qi and blood could really be made using the demon wolf blood as the raw material, Zhang Chu's qi and blood power would definitely be improved rapidly.
I don’t know if Zhang Chu’s martial arts of immortality were transformed from the internal force of the Shenzhaojing, but the vitality of the qi and blood in his body is quite amazing.
If his energy and blood were placed on an ordinary person, not to mention other things, just the recovery ability alone would be far beyond that of people of the same level.
In other words, it is not very suitable to return to the biochemical world now, otherwise, Zhang Chu would have to return to the biochemical world to take a look.
It was true that those medicines had a huge effect on Zhang Chu.
If it is possible to use the blood of the demon wolf as raw material to refine a potion that strengthens qi and blood, then it may not be impossible to use the blood of the fire unicorn as raw material to refine a potion that strengthens qi and blood.
The only doubt is how to resolve the evil nature in the Fire Qilin's blood.
In fact, the devil is too shocking.
Nie Ying, the ancestor of the Nie family, had a drop of unicorn blood drip into his eye socket, which seemed to have changed his genes and caused madness in several generations.
It was almost in an unsolvable state. Even the Ice Heart Art created by the ancestor of the Nie family in order to suppress the evil in the blood did not have much effect.
If the potion for enhancing qi and blood refined with the blood of the Fire Kirin also has such magical properties, it would not be a good thing for Zhang Chu.
There is a lot of corpse qi accumulated in his blood. If his bloodline is changed and infected with evil, that would be a lot of fun.
Therefore, Zhang Chu was extremely cautious in improving the medicine.
No one knows how many people have taken the medicine that ended up in his mouth.
He sat cross-legged there silently, taking medicine and waiting quietly for the day of the killing.
