Seeking Immortality

After Zhang Hualing announced the start of the competition, Xu Qingfan looked at the crowd in the square in confusion, not understanding how Zhang Hualing wanted him and others to compete. There was not even a ring, so were they going to fight in public in the square?

Just as Xu Qingfan was confused, the answer came out.

I saw an old man with a majestic figure standing up from his seat on the main stage, muttering something, pinching his fingers, pointing to an empty place in the square, and then heard a constant rumbling sound. In the shocked eyes of the disciples, dozens of rock platforms about ten feet wide and long suddenly protruded from the blank ground of the square.

The ultimate Taoist magic can reach the mysterious. Xu Qingfan couldn't help but sigh.

It seems that these rock platforms are the stage for this internal competition.

At this time, the elders who had no disciples participating in the competition flew up and flew to each platform. It is estimated that they will serve as judges for each platform.

There are a total of sixteen platforms, each with sixteen disciples, and only one disciple can stand out and enter the final sixteen.

Xu Qingfan was number 66 and was assigned to the fifth platform. Yue Qingru was assigned to the sixth platform, and Jin Qinghan was assigned to the third platform because he signed up early.

There were also some people who caught Xu Qingfan's attention, such as Feng Qingtian, who was assigned to the second platform. In addition, there was Nangong Qingshan, who was assigned to the same platform as Yue Qingru.

Seeing this, Xu Qingfan couldn't help but worry about Yue Qingru. He was not worried about Yue Qingru's strength. Yue Qingru had entered the late stage of Bigu more than 20 years ago, because the masters who entered the Spiritual Silence period either retreated and practiced in seclusion and disdained to participate in the competition, or had been in the industry for more than a hundred years. Therefore, with Yue Qingru's strength in the late stage of Bigu, he was already the top force in this competition. Although Nangong Qingshan had very good qualifications, he would never be Yue Qingru's opponent in terms of strength.

Xu Qingfan was worried that Yue Qingru would not be able to be ruthless to Nangong Qingshan because of their friendship as fellow disciples, which would give Nangong Qingshan an opportunity to take advantage of.

But Xu Qingfan couldn't care about Yue Qingru now. First, he found that Yue Qingru and Nangong Qingshan didn't compete at the beginning; more importantly, Xu Qingfan found that he was the first person to compete on the fifth stage.

Xu Qingfan was actually very nervous before the competition. Because except for hunting with his tribesmen in the Southern Wilderness, he had never participated in a battle so far and had no experience at all. Not to mention the competition with immortal cultivators.

"Don't be so nervous, otherwise you will perform poorly. I still have to take back the master's relics." Xu Qingfan took a deep breath, exhaled a long sigh, and cheered himself up.

As Xu Qingfan stepped onto the stage step by step, the nervous mood calmed down little by little. I don't know if it was because he just cheered himself up, or because he was naturally easy to calm down.

When Xu Qingfan stepped onto the stage, his first opponent also appeared. He was a young man about 25 or 26 years old. I saw that this young man was more nervous than when Xu Qingfan didn't play. Although his steps were still steady, his face was tense and sweat was pouring down. After seeing Xu Qingfan bowing to the elder who was the judge, he hurriedly followed Xu Qingfan to bow to the elder.

Using the "Heavenly Eye Technique", Xu Qingfan not only frowned slightly, but also because this young man's skill was too low, only reaching the late stage of Qi Refining. I really don't know why he came to participate in the competition with such a cultivation level.

"I am Xu Qingfan, please give me more advice." Xu Qingfan bowed slightly to the young man and said softly.

"Junior Sheng Yuji, I pay my respects to my uncle." The young man found that the calm man in front of him not only had a cultivation that he could not see through, but was also his elder, so his eyes became even more flustered. After bowing to Xu Qingfan, he hurriedly said.

"There is no size on the battlefield. Although this is not a battlefield, it is not far away, so you don't need to be so polite." Xu Qingfan looked at the young man in front of him who looked a little flustered, and said with a faint smile.

"Yes. I know." The young man obviously didn't listen.

"Well, let's get started." Xu Qingfan shook his head helplessly when he saw the young man's look.

Since the man in front of him was only at the Qigong stage and was his junior, Xu Qingfan decided to be more confident and let the young man take the initiative to attack, so that he would lose more gracefully and not lose confidence in the future.

But Xu Qingfan didn't expect that after being secretly on guard for a long time, he still didn't find that the young man had any intention to attack. He just looked at him with a wary look, as if he was facing a great enemy.

"Why don't you attack?" Xu Qingfan waited for a long time and finally said impatiently.

"The junior is waiting for the senior to make the first move."

Xu Qingfan was speechless when he heard this, and could only wave his hand and said, "You should make the first move."

After hearing Xu Qingfan's words, Sheng Yuji had no choice but to carefully draw his hands, and dozens of fist-sized fireballs flew rapidly towards Xu Qingfan. At the same time, he quickly crushed a jade talisman, and a yellow light flashed on his body, obviously adding an earth-based defense method to himself.

Seeing Sheng Yuji's cautious appearance, Xu Qingfan couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart. But his figure suddenly retreated backwards, and the speed was so fast that it was indescribable, leaving a series of afterimages in front of him! And the fireballs fired by Sheng Yuji, all just broke the afterimages, fell to the ground, splashed a little sparks, but did not hurt Xu Qingfan at all.

At this time, the terrifying speed of Xu Qingfan's "Turtle, Elephant and Leopard" combined with the "Divine Movement Technique" finally showed its power.

Seeing Xu Qingfan's jaw-dropping speed, Sheng Yuji was shocked, but he did not dare to stop the attack in his hand. Fireballs and waves of fire shot towards Xu Qingfan continuously, but all of them missed under Xu Qingfan's terrifying speed.

With the continuous attack, Sheng Yuji's attack became more and more handy. He began to feel that the senior in the Bigu period in front of him was just like this. Although the speed was a bit faster, it could not pose any threat to him.

From the scene, things were indeed as he imagined. Xu Qingfan was suppressed by his attack and could only keep wandering on the edge of the ring.

At this time, Xu Qingfan finally felt that it was time for him to attack. Defeating this young man at this time should not cause any big blow to his confidence, right?

So just when Sheng Yuji decided to go all out, he felt a flash of light in front of his eyes, and Xu Qingfan suddenly disappeared in front of him. Just when he was secretly shouting in his heart, he felt a huge force coming from his collar. Then he found himself flying up into the air. When Sheng Yuji finally landed from the air and stood firmly, he found himself standing outside the court.

It turned out that Xu Qingfan had just quickly flashed behind him, grabbed his collar and threw him out of the court.

"Xu Qingfan wins." The old voice of the elder who was the referee on the sidelines sounded.

After the elder's voice fell, Xu Qingfan first bowed to the elder, then nodded slightly to Sheng Yuji, and walked away lightly without paying attention to his surprised eyes.

Xu Qingfan's match was the last to end in the first round, and the others had already won.

On this day, in addition to Xu Qingfan, Yue Qingru, Jin Qinghan, Nangong Qingshan, and Feng Qingtian all won easily. I don't know if there is any trick in the arrangement of the competition. In the first day of the competition, there was no competition among the masters of the Qigong period, but those Qigong disciples who participated in the competition with a fluke mentality were eliminated.

But this relaxation will not last too long, because although half of the participating disciples were eliminated, the remaining ones are all masters of the Qigong period.
