Chapter 100 Source Technique Showdown

Chapter 100 Source Technique Showdown
Seeing this, the emotions of the onlookers were ignited.

The faces of the managers of the Ji family's stone workshop were as ugly as pig livers, as if they were going to sweep away all the treasures in their stone workshop.

At this time, Li Zhi sent a message to Li Heishui beside Ye Fan: "Hei boy, why are you still standing there? Why don't you find someone to set up a treasure game and let those enthusiastic audiences place bets."

Li Heishui looked at him in astonishment when he heard Li Zhi's message.

When Li Zhi saw his reaction, he knew that this kid could not accomplish his plan of gaining fans.

Afterwards, Li Zhi saw Yao Yuekong, the young master of Tian Yao Palace, in the crowd.

Li Zhi directly sent a voice message to him: "Brother Yuekong, how about we do a business together? I will mobilize everyone's emotions, and you will set up the treasure game. We will bet on the victory or defeat of the two of them, and we will split the profits 30% and 70% afterwards. How about it? I have connections, and I can ensure that I will make a profit."

Yao Yuekong looked at Li Zhi, who was transmitting the message to him, with a look of shock. He originally thought that Li Zhi was just a playful little Taoist priest, but he didn't expect there would be such twists and turns.

Seeing that Yao Yuekong did not respond, Li Zhi sent a message to a beautiful female disciple of the Ji family who was maintaining order in the distance: "Sister, do you want to make a fortune? Don't say anything yet, just listen to me. Our cooperation is enough to make you financially free. Next..."

Ji Biyue's eyes lit up after hearing Li Zhi's message. Compared with Li Heishui and Yao Yuekong, her reaction was quick.

"Little Taoist brother, tell me what to do. I will fully cooperate with you." Ji Biyue looked at Li Zhi with a smile on her face. She originally thought that he was a little brat who came to make trouble, but she found out that he was actually a master of making money in secret.

They actually know this magical method of using public emotions to reap the source of money in their pockets.

"Sister is indeed a heroine. Next, you comfort the disciples of your Ji family and don't let them stop my people from doing things. After the success, we will split the benefits 30% and 70%." Li Zhi continued in the voice transmission.

"Okay, sister, I believe you. I'll take 70%. That's it." Ji Biyue responded, as if 70% was not enough.

"It's not you who gets seven, it's me who gets seven and you who get three." Li Zhi was shocked by Ji Biyue's greed.

Ji Biyue seemed to be warning him from a distance, and said in a voice transmission: "Little Taoist brother, this is the Ji family's stone workshop."

"Since we can't reach an agreement, forget it." Li Zhi said indifferently.

But before he could find his next partner, a huge dark hand flew out from the Ji family's Tianzihao Stone Garden and grabbed Li Zhi away from the roof.

"My two young friends, you can decide the method of gambling on stones by yourselves." Then, an old voice sounded in the Ji family's stone archway, and the voice of one person even overwhelmed the voices of thousands of people.

This voice quickly calmed Tuoba Chang, who had been a little excited by everyone's slogans.

Then he looked at Ye Fan with hatred and said, "You are trying to disturb my mind with such a petty trick."

Ye Fan looked at Tuoba Chang calmly and said, "This little Taoist priest you brought here is indeed capable. However, in a duel of source arts, it is not about who has the loudest voice or the strongest source art."

After being cheered on by Li Zhi, Tuoba Chang's mood had already changed. He said, "Now that there are so many people and so many eyes, we don't need to start from the first level of the stone garden. We can start from the lakeside. If we can't cut out a source of the same price, I don't think there is any need to enter the sacred stone garden to compete."

Ye Fan smiled slightly and said, "Okay, you choose the stone."

At this moment, Ye Fan also admired Li Zhi in his heart. Just a slogan almost made Tuoba Chang's Taoism unbalanced.

If he was not from Earth, he would probably be thrown off balance and lose his composure by such a scene, and would behave irrationally in the heat of the moment.

I saw Ye Fan and Tuoba Chang starting to select stones on the lakeside.

A few mysterious monks suddenly appeared from the crowd and said to the people around them: "Fellow Daoists, the battle between the wild source magic prodigy Gu Feng and the outstanding descendant of the ancient source magic family is destined to be recorded in the history books. We are fortunate to watch this rare source magic duel in a century. If we just watch, it would be a bit boring.

Why not let me be the banker and start a great game so that everyone can have fun. Even if I lose the bet in the end, it can be considered as supporting my idol.

This is their round. If Gu Feng wins, he will pay three times the odds. If Tuoba Chang wins, he will pay two times the odds. If the two are tied, he will pay one to one. Are you interested in participating? Two geniuses of the source technique will personally demonstrate the source technique to you. If you don’t participate, you will definitely regret it in the future.”

"Fellow Daoist, how will you pay for everyone's gambling money when you open the treasure game?" Some people who were tempted asked. They also felt that what was said made sense. Instead of watching the two geniuses of the source technique gamble with stones, it would be better to use the two geniuses as chess pieces and gamble a bit, which would also be considered exciting.

"Since I dare to open a treasure game, it is naturally a one-to-one payout. To tell you the truth, I dare to open a treasure game in the Ji family stone workshop with the permission of Miss Ji Biyue. And I have already prepared ten thousand kilograms of pure source. Those who want to bet, please do so quickly. Otherwise, the duel between the two source wizards will begin. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. In the future, it will be a capital that can be used to show off in front of our children and grandchildren. If one of them becomes a source master in the future, then we can be regarded as people who have supported the source master with money, and we can be regarded as having a relationship with the source master."

After this very persuasive speech was finished, many cultivators were tempted. Although they were short of money and could not afford to gamble with stones, this way of betting on the genius of source magic was quite novel. If they won the bet, it would also show that they had good vision.

Even if you lose the bet, you can tell others in the future that you lost to support your idol. Maybe one day you can ask your idol to choose a stone for you.

"I'll buy ten kilograms of source and bet on Tuoba Changsheng."

"I'll buy thirty kilograms of source, and I'll win against Gu Feng."

"I'll buy five kilograms of source and tie the two of them."

"I'll buy."

As they approached the lakeshore, Ye Fan and Tuoba Chang began to use their source techniques to select stones, and more people who were interested couldn't help but start placing their bets.

There are patches of grass and trees and pavilions by the lake, but very few stones.

Seeing that the two were about to touch all the stones, a master from the Ji Family Stone Workshop stepped forward and advised: "Two gentlemen, there is really no stone here, only some scattered landscape stones. Why don't you move to the stone garden next door to choose stones for gambling?"

Tuoba Chang shook his head with a proud look on his face and said, "It is precisely because this place is not a stone garden that I chose this place. Only in this way can the world see whose source technique is stronger, rather than whose luck is better. This place is not without stones. In my opinion, there are still some treasures."

Ye Fan also said with confidence: "This place is only a step away from the Tianzihao Stone Garden. There is no need to choose other places."

Then, Tuoba Chang's hands turned golden and he began to feel around on some stones that looked like waste at first glance.

All the stones that Tuoba Chang touched with his finger turned golden, causing everyone to exclaim in surprise.

"This is the Red Gold Divine Hand in the Origin Technique, and it has already reached the pinnacle." An old monk exclaimed, feeling that his eyes were opened.

After hearing the old monk's evaluation, the monks in the crowd who bet on Tuoba Chang to win immediately became excited. Under the guidance of those who were interested, they shouted: "The Red Gold Divine Hand has reached the pinnacle. When Tuoba appears, no one can compete with him."

On the other side, Ye Fan seemed a lot more "ordinary". He didn't use any fancy tricks. He just kept searching for stones.

In the end, we even had to go to the lake to look for stones.

Some people who bet on Ye Fan to win were a little anxious and shouted, “Come on Gu Feng!”

Amid shouts and cheers, Ye Fan and Tuoba Chang finally selected their respective stones.

Tuoba Chang finally chose a ghost-cracked stone.

Ye Fan even fished out an ordinary stone as big as a human head from the lake.

Afterwards, as everyone was expecting, Tuoba Chang quickly untied the Ghost Crack Stone. A dazzling light shot out, and a fist-sized alien source emitting azure blue rays of light appeared in his hand.

An old monk who has been hanging around in the various stone workshops for many years said, "A blue diamond source was actually found in the Ghost Crack Stone. Given its size, it should be worth 1,500 kilograms of pure source."

Afterwards, Ye Fan did not keep everyone waiting for long. He lightly scratched his finger, and the stone shattered. At the same time, a red cloud rose into the sky. He actually opened out a fist-sized piece of alien source.

"That is the Fiery Red Source. It is about the same price as the Blue Diamond Source and is also worth 1,500 kilograms of pure source." Another old monk also spoke up.

"This is too much of a coincidence. Have we been tricked by them? How could there be such a coincidence in the world?" Some cultivators who bought Tuoba Chang or Ye Fanying felt incredible. In this place that was obviously not a stone garden, there were two pieces of equally valuable alien sources by such a coincidence.

One can't help but feel that this was a game that was prepared in advance.

The other cultivators who bet on a tie laughed and said, "How could a duel between two geniuses of the source art be decided in the first match? It must be a tie. If they can't even control a warm-up duel like this, how can they be called geniuses of the source art?" "Ah, so that's how it is. Daoist friend, you're right. We really underestimated those two geniuses of the source art. Next, they will gamble on stones in the Tianzihao Stone Garden. I wonder if they will cut out any immortal treasures."

"Fellow Daoist, shall we continue to bet on the winner?" Some of the monks who lost did not feel sad and once again surrounded the monks who had set up the treasure game.

The young monk who opened the treasure game said, "How can we bet on a simple win or loss in the Tianzi No. 1 Stone Garden? The stakes and odds should be set according to the value of the immortal treasures they cut out. Please wait a moment, I will go down and discuss this with Miss Biyue."

After saying that, the monks who opened the treasure bureau hurriedly walked towards Ji Biyue's position by the lake.

At the same time, on the small island in the middle of the lake, Li Zhi was sitting in front of the powerful Ji family who was guarding the stone garden.

This old man from the Ji family had skin as white as a baby and hair as white as snow. He sat like a god, and his Taoism was unfathomable. But after he was captured, he didn't say a word.

But after he finished the first round of the treasure game, the old man suddenly stared at Li Zhi with a half-smile and said, "Young friend, you released the Taoist gods to set up a treasure game outside to deceive those cultivators. Do you think my Ji family is not serious?"

"Senior, this is something we both want. No one can understand the duel of source arts, so I set up the treasure bureau just to provide everyone with a channel to participate in this duel. Senior, you see, so many people came, but they didn't buy your stones. Isn't it a waste of space? In my opinion, you should sell tickets to the public so that only those with source arts are qualified to watch the duel between the two source arts wizards in the Tianzihao Stone Garden."

Li Zhi talked freely to the old man in front of him, analyzing from all aspects how to maximize the benefits of this confrontation.

By then, even if those two source-art wizards cut out some magical treasures from the No. 1 Stone Garden, the Ji Family Stone Workshop would still make a profit.

The old man, who was originally calm and composed, and had no emotions at all, almost doubted his life after Li Zhi's conversation.

Seeing that the old man did not respond, Li Zhi said, "Old senior, how about this, we split the money 50-50, you be my backer, and I will manage the rest of the gambling. When the money is earned, we will each take half, what do you think? You don't have to put up any capital, and even if we lose money in the end, you don't have to put up a pound of money."

The old man was silent for a long time before he said, "Are you really a monk?"

Li Zhi immediately said sadly: "You are wise, but I am poor. My master doesn't love me, and my uncle doesn't care about me. I don't have any good brothers or sisters to help me, so I can only rely on myself to work hard outside."

The corners of the old man's mouth twitched, and he wished he could slap Li Zhi right away and send him flying thousands of miles away.

"Actually, you don't have to feel ashamed. Making money is not shameful. And since I'm in charge, no one will know that it's you who's supporting us behind the scenes. Maybe in the end, we'll earn more than those two source technique geniuses. This is called rational use of resources." Li Zhi was still crying sadly in the previous second, and his face was full of a mercenary expression in the next second.

Facing Li Zhi who was trying hard to sell him the profit-making package, the old man felt regretful in his heart why he had captured the little Taoist priest just now.

At this time, Ye Fan, Tuoba Chang and others also came to the Tianzihao Stone Garden on the island by boat.

Seeing Li Zhi sitting face to face with the old man and they seemed to be having a very pleasant conversation, the group of people looked at him as if they had seen a ghost.

Then Li Zhi looked at the monks who were qualified to go to the island, and began to think about how to get some resources out of the pockets of these rich people.

Previously, in order to be able to purchase the human-shaped elixir of immortality without any risk, he had spent a full one million kilograms of pure source.

The pure source in him was almost drained dry.

Now, Li Zhi is a real poor man.

Seeing Ji Biyue bringing a group of young geniuses to the island, Li Zhi's eyes lit up. Isn't the fat sheep here?

Prince Xia Yiming of Da Xia and his little nun sister Xia Yilin, Jiang Yifei of the Jiang family, Yao Yuekong of the Heavenly Demon Palace, Xu Heng, a disciple of the Great Bandits, Jin Chixiao of the Beiyuan Golden Family, Xiang Yifei of the Dayan Holy Land, the Holy Son of the Wanchu Holy Land, An Miaoyi of the Miaoyu Temple, and almost half of the young generation of geniuses of the Eastern Wilderness were present.

These are all people with good origins.

Afterwards, Li Zhi quickly made a payout table, intending to promote his bet to those geniuses.

However, just as he was about to go over, the old man who was guarding the stone garden of the Ji family directly imprisoned him on the spot with the power of the void, and said in a voice transmission: "You can bet on the stones, but you can't bet on other things."

Obviously the old man couldn't afford to lose face.

Li Zhi curled his lips, turned the odds table into ashes, and said, "I know."

The old man then let him go.

However, although gambling is not allowed on the island, gambling outside is still going on, and the scale is getting bigger and bigger.

After all, most cultivators could not see the absolute scene in the Tianzi Stone Garden with their own eyes, but Li Zhi's Taoist Palace deity used the Water Moon Technique to broadcast the exciting duel in the Stone Garden live for everyone from his own perspective.

Gorgeous technique, wonderful performance.

The Yuantian Treasure Wheel in Tuoba Chang's hand made everyone exclaim in amazement. It was a supreme secret technique that could imprint the secrets of strange stones and understand what kind of rare treasures were contained in them.

Ye Fan was not far behind, and directly displayed the even more amazing Yuantian Divine Perception, a Yuantian magic that used divine perception to see through all the secrets in the stone. It could be called the Eye of Truth, and was a heaven-defying Yuantian magic method.

The exciting duel between Yuantian Shenjue and Yuantian Baolun made everyone exclaim in excitement.

Under Li Zhi's guidance, they began to place bets.

Seeing that Tuoba Chang and Ye Fan, who were both masters of the source technique, failed one after another and produced something useless, everyone was disappointed.

But Li Zhi made a fortune.

Then the gambling continued.

When everyone saw that the two highly-anticipated Source Arts wizards threw out hundreds of thousands of kilograms of Source but came up with nothing one after another, they were so angry that they tore up the betting tickets in their hands.

For three consecutive games, the two source arts wizards had almost no gains, which made everyone deeply doubt their source arts.

And Li Zhi also ended the game at this time.

Thanks to Ye Fan and Tuoba Chang, Li Zhi earned a net income of 700,000 jin of source by winning three consecutive games.

This kind of gambling game where you know the cards is indeed easier than robbing money.

Most of the one million kilograms of resources spent were immediately recovered.

Then the three Taoist palace gods returned to his Taoist palace unknowingly.

At this time, the source technique duel between Ye Fan and Tuoba Chang finally reached the final round to decide the winner.

The two men used various methods and each locked onto their target.

Tuoba Chang first selected the stone, which was one of the most valuable rare stones named "Shen Yue".

However, Ye Fan began to feel malicious and planned to trick the people who came with Tuoba Chang.

At this moment, Li Zhi also joined in.

He shouted directly to everyone present: "Is there anyone willing to gamble with me?"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the monks present, regardless of gender, age or status, focused their attention on him.

Before this, they had seen with their own eyes how this little Taoist priest incited everyone's emotions.
