Seeking the Way of Immortality

First, the city lord gave a speech, which was all a formality.

These speeches are held every year, and they are nothing more than words like "for the better development of Mo City, jointly create a harmonious Mo City" and so on.

Then, they encouraged the contestants and told them that friendship comes first and competition comes second!

Mo Lingyun's status is actually not much higher than theirs, but Mo Lingyun is the lord of a city appointed by the Yunhua Empire. To despise him is to despise the entire Yunhua Empire.

The Phoenix Realm is different from the Xuanhuang Realm. The Xuanhuang Realm is respected by the sect, and the empire is just a force under the control of the sect. The Phoenix Realm is just the opposite. Here, the empire is respected, and the sect is just a force under the jurisdiction of the empire. The overall strength of the empire is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. The resources of an empire and millions of miles of territory are gathered to support a family. Even if it is a waste, it can be pushed to a peak position. This is the power of resources.

The Yunhua Empire has a vast territory, covering millions of miles. There are thousands of sects of all sizes. Some of these sects are under the jurisdiction of the Empire, while others exist independently. However, almost all cities are controlled by the Empire. There are no small countries in the Empire, only city lords.

The city lord has the documents of the Empire and is in charge of a city and a pond. Every year, he only needs to pay tribute to the income in the city. If there is something wrong with the city, the Empire will send masters to help.

So although there are several people in Mo City who are even better than Mo Lingyun, they still behave respectfully in front of Mo Lingyun. Even the notaries of the three families’ competitions are headed by Mo Lingyun. This is the strength of the Empire.

After Mo Lingyun finished speaking, an old man announced the rules of the competition. The heads of the three families drew lots, one person was bye, and two people fought.

After the two fought, they rested for an hour. After an hour, the loser fought with another cultivator who was bye, and then the winner competed with the winner of the first round for the first championship, and the loser was the runner-up.

There are three rounds in total. If any two families are willing to join forces, the third family will definitely not win. This is why Nanxueshan is looking for external aid.

It is obvious that Wu Zheng will fight two games no matter what, against Lin An and Huang Guoru respectively.

The crowd was crowded and looked at the arena.

As Wu Zheng expected, the first round was a battle between Lin An and Wu Zheng.

Wu Zheng glanced at Nanxueshan with a half-smile, and Nanxueshan touched his nose awkwardly, looking embarrassed.

Without saying much, Wu Zheng's figure flashed and he appeared on the ring.

Lin An was not hypocritical either. He flashed and also appeared on the ring.

"I have heard of your record. I can do what you can do, but if you think you can match me, then I advise you to admit defeat!" Lin An stood opposite Wu Zheng and looked at Wu Zheng indifferently.

Wu Zheng just stood there, calm and indifferent, as if he didn't hear Lin An's words at all.

"What? Are you scared?" Seeing Wu Zheng not speaking, Lin An sneered.

"I have seen many geniuses like you, and even more geniuses than you, but I have never seen someone as arrogant as you." Wu Zheng laughed, not caring about Lin An's gradually ugly face.

"Oh, is that so?" Lin An was angry, thinking that a person who was nothing dared to talk to him like this, which was simply unreasonable.

"Is it true? We will know after the battle!"

"Who is that person? How dare he talk to Lin An like this." A cultivator looked at Wu Zheng and asked the cultivators around him in confusion.

"Hehe, you don't even know him, are you new here?"

"Hey, brother, how do you know?"

"Hey, this person is not simple, he destroyed the Biwen Sect alone, do you know?"

"I know! That's why I came here!"

"Hey, this person is that person."

"What? It's him, no wonder!"

The cultivator suddenly realized.

"This kid is strong, but I'm afraid his brain is not very good!"

"Well, what do you mean?"

"Hey, he was picked in the first game. If he loses, Wanbaolou will not let him go. If he wins by chance, he will have to fight another game to win. I heard that Huang Guoru's fighting power is even higher than Lin An!" A cultivator sighed, as if he had seen Wu Zheng's ending.

"Hehe, not necessarily. To be able to participate in such a competition, his talent is needless to say. What's more, we still don't know the origin of this person. Wanbaolou has kept it a secret. It seems that Wanbaolou should have other intentions, or have strong confidence in this person." Another cultivator expressed his opinion.

When Mo Lingyun saw Wu Zheng, a flash of anger flashed across his face, but he didn't care.

Chen Huaming of Kuangfeng Treasure House frowned, thinking that Lin An was really arrogant and too arrogant.

Lin An seemed to have seen the unhappiness of his elders, so he clasped his fists and said, "Lin An from Kuangfeng Treasure House, please teach me."

"I am Wu Zheng, a free cultivator in the mountains, please teach me!"

"Ah! How is this person a free cultivator?"

"No wonder we can't find out his origins, he is a free cultivator."

"It seems that the battle outside the city gate that day was probably a fluke. The Biwen Sect is too bad! They actually lost to a free cultivator."

Chen Huaming's brows relaxed, as if victory was in sight.

But Lin An on the stage felt something was wrong, and unexpectedly took the lead.

A flash of sword light turned into starlight, appeared around Wu Zheng, and shot at his vital points.

Wu Zheng held the Red Flame Immortal Sword and drew a circle with himself as the center, blocking all attacks outside, relaxed and free, as if there was no pressure at all.

And in fact, it was true. Although Lin An could fight against a late-stage great cultivator, you have to know that Wu Zheng could fight against a late-stage great cultivator when he was in the Jindan stage, not to mention that he had already advanced to the Yuanying stage at this time, and Lin An could no longer bring him any pressure.

"With this little strength, it seems not enough." Wu Zheng curled his lips with a trace of disdain.

Lin An was really angry when he was provoked. The sword in his hand shook repeatedly, and the vitality between heaven and earth also gathered, turning into a huge sword. Runes lingered on the giant sword, flashing with terrifying pressure.

"Humph, go to hell!" Lin An roared angrily.

Wu Zheng raised his head, shattered the void with one finger, and pressed hard on the giant sword.

'Bang! ’

The light was overflowing, bringing with it a thunderous sound, but it turned the sharp attacks of the two into tiny bits of vitality, which dissipated into the void.

“Ah! This man is so strong that he turned Lin An’s attack into nothingness with a flicker of his hand.” Everyone was shocked, and at this moment they couldn’t help but recall the battle a few days ago. Wu Zheng also used the same method to break the attack of the great monk, and today he still used the same method to break Lin An’s extremely powerful attack.

Even his expression did not change at all!
