Longevity: Starting from the Talent of Infant Growth

"Haha, Boss, that's great, I finally made it to the quarterfinals!"

In the evening, Sun Dajie poured wine for Zhou Ling and said with a cheerful face.

After Zhou Ling successfully defeated the first puppeteer in the inner courtyard in the morning, he met a formation master in the afternoon.

The second-level middle-grade flame formation did not pose much threat to Zhou Ling.

Under the attack of the furnace sword energy, the formation was broken in just a few swords.

In the end, he had to admit defeat.

Zhou Ling also successfully entered the quarterfinals.

The reason why Sun Dajie was so excited was that he bet on Zhou Ling to enter the quarterfinals. This bet was a big win, earning more than 2,000 low-grade spirit stones.

Of course, Zhou Ling earned more.

"Boss, tomorrow's opponent is not easy to deal with. It is Ximo, the third place in the last session and the second-level upper-grade rune master!"

After drinking a sip of wine, Sun Dajie threw the fried peanuts into his mouth very comfortably and said with a smile.

Now Zhou Ling has entered the quarterfinals.

Even if he can't win the championship, he will still make a lot of money.

Of course, he was also under pressure for Zhou Ling to win the championship. He bet more than 100 spirit stones, and the bet was made before the competition started.

The odds at that time were 1 to 12.

That is to say, if Zhou Ling could win the championship, he would have more than 1,000 spirit stones in his pocket.

Through the past two days, Zhou Ling's performance has fully demonstrated his strength.

He also has the capital to win the championship.

So he also has expectations in his heart.

"Second-level high-quality rune master, third in the last session."

"I didn't expect to meet this opponent in the quarterfinals!"

Looking at the scene of Ximo defeating his opponent, Zhou Ling also frowned.

This Ximo is much stronger than Lu Li who met yesterday.

The runes in his hand are mainly second-level high-quality, and they can also condense rune arrays.

Just three second-level high-quality runes condensed into an array, the power is extremely terrifying.

However, he also knows that none of the disciples who can enter the quarterfinals are easy to deal with.

Immediately, while drinking spirit wine and looking at the image jade, he analyzed the tactics to deal with Ximo.

But after looking around, there is no good solution even with the help of [Intermediate Analysis].

The main reason is that this person has too many runes in his hand. While condensing the rune array, he can also condense the Qingteng Warrior rune defense.

Only by confronting him head-on and breaking the rune array and Qingteng Warrior can he be defeated.

"It seems that tomorrow will be a tough battle!"

Zhou Ling murmured in his heart.

However, it has come to this point, and there is no need to think about other things.

Understand the opponent's situation and do your best.

Fortunately, the opponent is a wood attribute spiritual root, and the runes drawn are all wood attributes.

There are still restrictions on attack power.

Otherwise, if it is fire attribute or thunder attribute.

Given the entire thunder and fire rune array, it is estimated that there are not many people who can defeat him.

······.

"Zhou Ling's chance of winning the championship is as high as 20%, second only to the two late foundation building cultivators!"

"This is too monstrous, he has only been building the foundation for more than two months."

"Hey, this is a true genius!"

"This is too terrifying, the first level of foundation building is better than the late foundation building."

"That's not so easy, his next opponent is Ximo, who ranked third in the last competition."

"And this year's rune cultivation has greatly improved, it will not be so easy for Zhou Ling to pass him."

"That's right, geniuses can fight across levels, he can defeat four mid-foundation building cultivators, and entering the top eight is already monstrous enough."

"If he can also defeat the late foundation building cultivators, then he is not a monster, it is simply against the sky!"

"Didn't Senior Brother Zhou Ling enter the outer courtyard of the Taoist Academy last year? How can he be so terrifying!"

"Yes, and it is said that he was originally only a low-grade five-element spiritual root. He was the only one who failed the first foundation building test!"

······.

The Xuanyuan Taoist Academy Square was packed with disciples from the inner and outer courtyards.

The disciples were excitedly discussing Zhou Ling's situation.

Especially those who had just entered the Taoist Academy this year were also shocked by Zhou Ling, the new legend of the Taoist Academy.

Every competition he had became a topic of conversation among the disciples.

Even his childhood sweetheart relationship with Wang Xin became a hot topic among the disciples.

"Oh, it would be great if I had such a Taoist partner!"

Many female disciples were also envious.

Zhou Ling didn't know that he was already considered a legendary disciple in the Taoist Academy.

He was now standing on the competition stage, just thinking about how to defeat the rune array master in front of him.

"Junior Brother Zhou, you are the most outstanding disciple I have seen in all these years in the Taoist Academy, but it may take a few more years to defeat me!"

A handsome and tall young man on the opposite side said to Zhou Ling with a smile.

"Senior Brother Xi, please give me more advice!"

Zhou Ling said with a bow.

As soon as the voice fell, five spiritual swords surrounded him.

The five-colored sword light burst out, and the sharp sword energy gave people a huge pressure.

After watching the opponent's competition yesterday, he decided to use the sword formation to fight the opponent's rune formation.

Looking at the sword formation condensed by Zhou Ling, Ximo exhaled helplessly and said seriously, "Okay, then let me see the true strength of you, the first genius of the Taoist Academy now!"

"This is the talisman I have cultivated for more than a year. I was originally going to use it at the last moment."

"But now, Junior Brother Zhou, your sword formation forced me to use the talisman in advance!"

As soon as the voice fell, he directly activated a green talisman.

The Divine Wood Talisman.

However, unlike other runes, his Divine Wood Talisman contains a Talisman Treasure.

The so-called Talisman Treasure is a treasure that the rune master uses to cultivate and then integrates into the rune.

This can greatly enhance the power of the rune.

As the green light bloomed.

A green wood fell to the ground and instantly bloomed, turning into a giant tree dozens of feet high.

Huge vines emerged from the giant tree, like octopuses.

Zhou Ling's eyes could not help but condense. He didn't expect that Ximo really thought highly of him.

Since he directly used the Talisman Treasure to cooperate with the rune array.

As a second-level magician, he also knew about the Talisman Treasure.

This is similar to the integration of the sword stone into the sword.

Talisman Treasure is also very valuable.

It is often a means for the rune master to save his life.

In the original four competitions, Ximo did not use the Talisman Treasure.

It can be seen that it is really as he said, this Talisman Treasure is prepared for the last minute.

And the strength that Zhou Ling has shown now has made him dare not hold back.

[You are observing the Qingmu Rune Array condensed by the Qingmu Rune Treasure, Intermediate Observation +1]

[You are analyzing the Qingmu Rune Array condensed by the Qingmu Rune Treasure, Intermediate Analysis +1]

"Qingteng attack, wood energy condensation attack, powerful Qingteng defense shield!"

"There is also some power of Qingmu Domain!"

Zhou Ling thought to himself.

Through the two talents, he got the situation of the Qingmu Rune Array in front of him.

The power of the rune array in front of him, which was integrated with the talisman, was obviously stronger.

Similar to the magic array, the Qingmu Rune Treasure is the array eye of this Qingmu array.

The power of the rune array is determined by the array eye.

At the same time, the array eye can maintain the operation of the rune array and reduce the consumption of the rune master.

"The defense of the second-level upper-grade Qingmu tree is extremely strong. If it is modified by an ordinary mid-stage foundation building, it cannot be broken at all, but it may not have much advantage against the Fire Cloud Sword Qi!"

As [Intermediate Analysis] analyzed the situation of the talisman, Zhou Ling thought to himself.

However, the rune array is of green wood attribute, with powerful spiritual power supplement, Zhou Ling did not dare to be careless.

Fortunately, with two talents for observation and analysis, Zhou Ling quickly understood the rune array and the talisman.

This rune array can also mobilize the green wood attribute spiritual power around it to condense a more powerful attack.

This is the terrifying method formed after the rune array and the green wood talisman are fused.

The attack power is strong and can continue to fight. Even if you encounter a cultivator of a higher level, it is more than enough to deal with it.

"Brother Zhou, let's see how long you can block this green wood rune array!"

Ximo smiled and said, obviously very confident in his own runes.

As the voice fell, he cast the spell in his hand.

The huge green wood in front of him bloomed with dozens of green giant vines, and instantly it was like dozens of green sword beams, blasting towards Zhou Ling.

Seeing this scene, the disciples watching couldn't help but exclaimed.

The power of this rune array is too terrifying!

Even the judges on the jury were shocked.

"If Ximo had been able to cultivate the Qingmu Talisman last year, he might have won the championship last year!"

Zhang Daojian said.

"Obviously, Ximo used this Talisman for the championship, but now under Zhou Ling's pressure, he has to use it in advance!"

"It's not that easy for Zhou Ling to block it!"

Teacher Lin also said with interest.

"It's hard to say. After all, Zhou Ling also has good means. The Five Elements Xuanyang Sword in his hand is a trump card!"

"Of course, one refines the Talisman, and the other has the Five Elements Xuanyang Sword. This competition is definitely exciting!"

Dean Zhong also said with a smile.

Boom!

While they were talking, the two sides had already fought on the competition stage.

To everyone's surprise, Zhou Ling did not use the Five Elements Xuanyang Sword.

Instead, he put away the sword and a stream of flames in his hand.

The flames turned into a bright sun bird, flying out and continuously fighting against the flying green vines.

A dazzling flame light burst out.

Then, the green vines were burned by the flames.

"It's actually the third-grade spiritual flame!"

Seeing the power of the spiritual flame, the disciples on the square couldn't help but be surprised.

No wonder Zhou Ling has such an advantage in technique, it turns out that he has a third-grade spiritual flame in his hand.

With this third-grade spiritual flame, combined with the Five Elements Xuanyang Sword, Zhou Ling has the means to deal with this rune formation.

After all, the spiritual flame can restrain the green wood. With the help of the spiritual flame, Zhou Ling is much more relaxed.

While everyone was discussing, Zhou Ling made a gesture with his hands, and another flame flew out from his hands.

The brown light of the flame bloomed, and instantly condensed into a huge brown earth turtle figure, bombarding the huge green wood.

Looking at the two overwhelming spiritual flames.

Xi Mo, who was originally relaxed, became solemn.

I didn't expect Zhou Ling to control two third-level spiritual flames. This kid is not very old.

This opportunity and ability are enviable.

I dare not be careless.

He recited the spell, and the green vines on the green tree surrounded it, and a green shield was condensed in an instant.

To block the two powerful spiritual flames.

Boom!

Boom!

The two spiritual flames hit the green shield, making a deafening sound.

The green shield dimmed.

"This power is too strong!"

Although he blocked the attack of two spiritual flames, Ximo's expression became more and more solemn.

The green wood light in the center of the rune array was obviously dim.

It can be seen that the consumption is not small.

Moreover, the wood spiritual energy field condensed by the rune array was more than half dissipated under the sweep of the flames.

The absorbed wood spiritual energy became extremely weak.

Unexpectedly, the game that was originally sure to win was completely reversed after Zhou Ling activated two spiritual flames.

Originally, with this green wood rune array, he had enough confidence to consume and defeat Shang Cangzhi.

But now this situation forced him to change his tactics.

Originally, he used green wood and absorbed the surrounding wood spiritual energy to consume the opponent, but now he can only fight quickly and decisively.

Immediately, he chanted the spell and injected the spiritual power in his hand into the green wood.

The green wood shone brightly, and then condensed into a group of dazzling green wood light.

Transformed into two green wood giant swords and spread towards the two spiritual flames.

"Qingmu changes shape!"

Looking at this situation, Zhou Ling's eyes condensed, and a green light shot out from his hand.

"This?"

In Ximo's extremely shocked eyes, he saw a green spiritual flame, like a blooming green lotus, bombarding the green tree.

It was another third-grade spiritual flame!

This kid actually has three third-grade spiritual flames, how is this possible?

And with the appearance of this spiritual flame, the rich green wood spiritual energy in the green wood array was actually directly swept and absorbed by it.

Ximo shook his teeth and could only inject spiritual power again to fully activate the green wood talisman.

When increasing the attack, he condensed a green wood light shield for defense.

After Ximo condensed the defensive green wood light shield to block the attack of the green lotus spiritual flame, and all the trump cards of the green wood array were played, Zhou Ling recited the spell.

The Five Elements Xuanyang Sword appeared in front of him.

This is when he will really take action.

Three spiritual flames are just appetizers.

"Three third-grade spiritual flames, and the Five Elements Xuanyang Sword! How can we fight this?"

"Three third-grade spiritual flames, what kind of heaven-defying opportunity is this!"

At this moment, the disciples under the competition stage were already silent.

Originally, they were all shocked that Ximo used the talisman to condense a powerful rune array.

In their view, this was a completely invincible array.

But now, the expressions of everyone looking at Ximo were nothing but sympathy.

If anyone else were to face the Qingmu Rune Array, they would only be waiting to be crushed.

Ximo would definitely be able to triumph all the way and enter the finals.

But it can only be said that Ximo's luck was a bit bad, and he met Zhou Ling, a peerless genius.

He actually controlled three third-grade spiritual flames in his hand.

He suppressed his Qingmu giant array tightly.

Boom!

With the fierce bombardment of the three spiritual flames, the Qingmu Rune Array continued to shrink and dim.

Even though Ximo activated the Vine Armor Warrior, it was still destroyed after several hits under the fierce bombardment of the Fire Cloud Sword Qi.

Simo was forced to panic and had no chance to activate the rune again, so he could only admit defeat.

"Zhou Ling won the third competition stage! Enter the semi-finals!"

As Ximo admitted defeat, the judges' voices also sounded.
