Everyone is Secretly in Love with Me

Lin Zhizhi wanted Qi Ting to directly inform the elder Jianzong of the news of Moxiu's presence here.Since Xuanhua left, he appeared to be a disciple of Jianzong, but in fact he didn't know any of the elders.The only one who is still familiar may be the real Hewei who often peeks at him with envious and jealous eyes.

"You told the elder that there are probably some fake demon cultivators in Linye City. The cultivation level is not high, but the skills are very pure."

Qi Ting was stunned: "How do you know?"

"Because you can't cut him."

"...I'm asking, how do you know they are demon cultivators?"

"Intuition." Lin Zhizhi was too lazy to explain to him and involved a lot of things in the secret realm, so he made up a reason casually.

"..."

Qi Ting also thought that Lin Zhizhi was playing him deliberately, and was angry in his heart, and felt aggrieved for some reason: "You are also a disciple of Jianzong, why don't you talk about it yourself."

The indifferent black eyes of the black-haired boy were a little thicker than the night behind him.Now that Lin Zhizhi was deeply pressed by the big rock that wanted to quickly build a foundation, he didn't want to talk much at all, and planned to leave alone without answering Qi Ting's words.

Xie Ling stopped him, and asked anxiously, "Is it true? Brother Lin?"

Linye City is her hometown, and if something goes wrong, the girl is more anxious than anyone else.

Lin Zhizhi nodded hesitantly: "[-]% sure."

Different from Qi Ting, Xie Ling has believed in him unconditionally since the secret realm.Hearing this, he said without hesitation: "Then I will send a letter to Master. It will take about three days at the earliest to pass the spirit bird, it may be a little late, and the group arena should be over by then..."

"Go all out." Lin Zhizhi said.

——He guessed that these demon cultivators might have come here for the pool of water, otherwise this small Linye City would have nothing else to sell.

——It is also possible that the cave left by a real person who turned into a god when he emerged was buried underground?But it has never been discovered by later generations?

The young master of the Lin family made excellent use of his accumulation of philanthropic (loving) learning (reading) and (reading) (reading) many (little) talent (talking) when he was young, and found countless reasons for the purpose of those people coming to Yecheng...

After Xie Ling returned to Xie's house, she dispatched a few dead men to observe Sun and Qian's family, hoping to investigate the movement of those people.I thought they would go out for a walk often in the name of walking, but the response they got was that they had a good time with the two Patriarchs, and after the daily banquet, they worked hard to return to the practice room to practice.

It looked like he was going to do his best for the competition.

Aside from being surprised, the girl stepped up her cultivation along with her elder brother.

Lin Zhizhi has already built the foundation in half a step. Unless he can completely condense the foundation building tower, the usual meditation practice will have no effect.He has been locked in the room for the past few days, thinking about how to control the thunder.

Most of the lightning control arts given to him by the master before he left were subtle ones that can only be learned at the foundation stage.With his current half-step foundation building, he can only understand the most superficial sentences.

As for Qi Ting, he went to various auctions every day, spent thousands of spirit stones, and bought a lot of disposable talismans and powerful spirit treasures.

——His idea is very simple, Lao Tzu's exercises are not close to him, but Lao Tzu is rich!If one talisman can't kill you, how can you resist with a few more?Take the head against?

This method is completely unworkable above the foundation building stage, but it is feasible in the Qi refining stage to get rid of a small number of true cultivation geniuses.After all, with so much white money floating in the sky, anyone would be in a daze for a while.

With everyone's hard work and preparation, the day of the competition came.

The largest martial arts arena in Linye City was full of people that day, and Linye City's people who wanted to join in the fun surrounded the arena tightly, and only the three major families and those warriors could enter.

The Patriarch of the Xie family looked solemn: "Ling'er, Lu'er, Lun'er, you must remember that the honor of the family is in your hands. Also, Mr. Lin and Mr. Qi, this time I will thank you all."

The three of Xie Ling nodded with serious faces, in stark contrast to Qi Ting's relaxedness.

Lin Zhizhi is still the same as before, honor or disgrace is not surprising, everyone's demeanor.

Then the head of the house went to draw lots.There was one person from each side, and the final order of the draw was: Xie Ling and Sun Hao, Xie Lu and Qian Jie, Xie Lun and the young men in the trio, Qi Tingyuanjiao narrowly matched the names of the previous cases, causing him to rush to the street on the spot Lin Zhizhi is the same middle-aged man.

Xie Ling was the first to play.

The young girl is young and beautiful, and her skirt is flying in youthful beauty, which arouses the support of many young men in the audience.

——It is worth mentioning that, after seeing the true faces of both sides clearly, except for those who have the burden of family honor, most people are slightly inclined to the Xie family.

No reason, beauty is justice!

Xie Ling alone can hang and beat the three dull old men on the opposite side, not to mention Lin Zhizhi and the girl forming a mixed doubles.

With the bang of a gong, Sun Hao also came on stage.

Sun Hao is an outstanding disciple of the Sun family. He has worshiped a certain alchemy master as his teacher since he was a child, but it is obviously not as good as Xie Ling who joined the Luoxian Sword Sect.

His weapon is a pair of hammers, he cultivates strength, and his momentum is huge.However, he was subdued by the girl's soft colored gauze, using softness to overcome rigidity, and shed that huge force.

The double hammer hit the side of the field, smashing a deep pit.

Xie Ling has a graceful figure, like a beautiful butterfly, and Sun Hao's dexterous positioning made Sun Hao helpless, and finally seized the opportunity to wrap the colorful yarn around the opponent's waist and throw him off the high platform.

Xie Ling's victory brought a smile on the Patriarch's face.

The fame of Luoxian Sword Sect is not for nothing.It is more than enough to deal with Sun Hao, who has limited aptitude and failed to join the Dazong.What really worried him were the three men in black and Qian Jie.

Although Qian Jie did not join Dazong, it was a sect that specialized in divine thoughts.This sect has a special formula for training the gods, which can train the consciousness, and even attack with the invisible consciousness!Very weird!

And the other person has a mysterious origin and special skills, even he, the Patriarch of the Foundation Establishment Period, can't see through it.Most likely, Xie Lun will lose. According to the news a few days ago, the young man named Qi Ting is also useless... It depends on Lin Zhizhi.

The next game is Xie Lu vs. Qian Jie.

This scene is really nothing to watch.Just as Xie Lu was about to make a move, Qian Jie had already closed his eyes, activated his divine sense, turned into a small knife, and had a fierce confrontation with Xie Lu.

Xie Lu endured his headache and wanted to interrupt Qian Jie's concentration of spiritual thoughts through a physical attack, but he didn't last until then.

Sorry to lose.

In Xie Lun's contest with the man in black, it was just as the head of the Xie family expected.Sheron was completely unable to deal with an enemy with amazing defense.On the contrary, he vomited blood and stepped down after being hit by the opponent a few times.

It's currently two to one.

Patriarch Xie's heart was almost in his throat.Xie Ling also looked at Qi Ting with nervous eyes.

Next is Qi Ting.

The man's severed tendon in his left hand has already found a good elixir and connected it.Although I can't use force now, I can still make some common gestures.What's more, when he defeated Qi Ting, he didn't use his left hand at all.

He also didn't take the initiative to attack, but like before, he cast a golden light all over his body, waiting for Qi Ting to make fun of himself.

Qi Ting had suffered a lot, so he didn't intend to take a knife to fight the man head-on, so he stretched his hand into his bosom and took it out, like a goddess scattering flowers, Zhang Zhang talisman scattered on the man's head.

The opposite side was flooded by talismans and was at a loss.

They were detonated one by one, forming a flame composed of spirit stones.

A shower of fireworks worth thousands of spirit stones.

Enveloping the man's entire body, the impact immediately blew him away.

Qi Ting smiled triumphantly.This is the safest method he has come up with these days.The real fighting method had already been tried that day, and he couldn't beat it at all.Even if Lin Zhizhi crippled the opponent's arm, he still couldn't beat him.

——You can't break through other people's defenses at all, how can you fight like this?

He can only fight for his family background!

Qi Ting was so happy that he couldn't see his eyes on the stage, he quickly jumped off to ask his junior sister for credit.It's just that Lin Zhizhi observed from the audience that when he fell, the fiery man not only didn't have that kind of "frustration, disappointment and anger", but was very calm.

Logically speaking, even the Patriarchs of Qian and Sun jumped up to protest, but the person who should be most dissatisfied only clenched his fist symbolically.

It doesn't make sense, unless... that's what they want.

What good would they gain if they lost?

Lin Zhizhi rolled up his long sleeves, jumped onto the stage in the chaos all around, and waved to the middle-aged man who was as stable as Mount Tai.

Pretty defiant.

The man wasn't annoyed either, he couldn't see that he was still threatening him with words the day before yesterday.He walked up slowly, cupped his hands sincerely and said: "I hope that the young man will be merciful."

Lin Zhizhi: "..."

——Uncle, you've made a mess of people!Wake up!Where is the man who keeps threatening me!

Seeing that the next two candidates have come to the stage, and the three family leaders who are fighting for the Fulu incident are arranging their clothes and maintaining their face, they all want to wait until the five rounds are over to see the results.

It was quiet again.

The middle-aged man stood where he was. This time, he did not wait for the enemy to attack like the previous man did, and chose to attack proactively.He smashed the ground of the high platform with one foot, and with a sacred golden light shining on his fist, he punched the black-haired boy.

Lin Zhizhi didn't use a sword this time.He wanted to test whether the guy on the opposite side wanted to lose and focused on dodging. Yu Fengjue deftly dodged the opponent's fist, and using his two fingers to form a sword, he swung around behind and slashed at the enemy's legs.

The opponent opened his legs, dodged the sword energy, turned around and grabbed the boy's arm, and with a violent pull, he was about to remove half of the arm.

Without flinching, Lin Zhizhi hit the opponent's chest with his palm, and the middle-aged man who had practiced physical exercises turned pale immediately, and was sent flying.

Lin Zhizhi: "..."

——Big brother, isn’t this a little fake... Those who don’t know think that he is born with supernatural powers, and can forcibly hammer body-refining monks into the air!

But he knows his strength, others don't.

Qi Ting was the first to jump up from the audience: "He, why is he so powerful?!"

Lin Zhizhi is a swordsman!As a swordsman, a cultivator who can fight with bare hands now vomits blood, is there any truth in this world?So many Lixiu are about to cry and bleed, okay? !

The girl wrapped her gauze around her arms, her face was like a peach, and she finally put her heart back into her stomach.

Brother Lin, you are really reliable.

After winning this competition for the Xie family, the owner personally expressed various gratitude to Lin Zhizhi and the other two, and took out [-] spirit stones to buy the remaining one for Qi Ting, who can also enter the quenching pool middle.

Sun and Qian's plan fell through, their faces were as black as Bao Gong's, and they flung their sleeves and left on the spot.The three men in black sighed, or shook their heads, and walked out with each other's support.

****

Body Quenching Pool is what Linye City called this pool of water. It is located in the middle of two valleys, a pool of water.Every year is strangely full of energy that can be used to condense the root bones.When I first discovered it, I suspected that there was a cave not far away, which opened deep in the valley.But the years are merciless, the cave door was tightly sealed, and several Patriarchs took a look at it together, opened a small path, and there is no treasure inside.

The Patriarch of the Xie family brought ten people to a valley, looking at the Body Quenching Pool amidst the mist and mist.

That emerald green is like the best jasper jade, full of freshness after the new rain in the empty mountains.

In order to take care of the woman, they specially set up a boundary in the quenching pool.According to the division method of male left and female right, enter from different directions without interfering with each other.

Xie Ling had already been taken to the other side. Lin Zhizhi, Qi Ting and the others also meandered down the road after bidding farewell to the Patriarch, towards the Body Tempering Pool.

The water in the Body Quenching Pool is very clear.

It's the kind... that you can see clearly even if you're submerged in water.

Qi Ting followed the black-haired boy, seeing the snow-white and delicate nape of the boy's black hair fluttering as he walked, his heart skipped a beat for some reason.

——It must be about to successfully soak in a pool of water with my junior sister, I am too nervous, hehehe, it must be like this!

Qi Ting clutched his beating heart and accidentally bumped into Lin Zhizhi's back.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

The young master of the Lin family glanced at him, and was shocked to realize that there are such stupid and lovely people in this world.Thinking about it, my father raised him too well - let his father always say that he is not as good as Su Yu, so he should let him see how Qi Ting looks like!Only then do I know that I am good.

"arrive."

Qi Ting let out an "oh", and seeing that the rest of the men had disappeared, presumably they had taken another path or entered the Body Tempering Pool.Thinking of this, he hurriedly took off his coat, fearing that other people would snatch away his opportunity.

Lin Zhizhi sat on a rock by the pool, resting his chin on one hand, watching Qi Ting hurriedly look like a guest entering a brothel, and said leisurely: "Trust me, don't take it off."

Qi Ting froze the hand taking off his pants, and subconsciously wanted to reply "Who would believe you?" - but he immediately thought of that night, the behavior of his junior sister was in stark contrast to his own words.

This person... seems to have never been missed.

The lazy black-haired boy looked at Qi Ting's favorability and secretly added another 5.

Qi Ting stopped his movements, looked around vigilantly and asked, "Did you find anything?"

Lin Zhizhi put down his hands, his expression changed, his nerves tensed, like a dangerous cheetah, he stood up and stared at a certain place: "Well, this."

In the next second, the overwhelming darkness engulfed the two of them.

Qi Ting: ...you show me this when you take off your pants? !

Being attacked by the sudden darkness, even though Lin Zhizhi had been prepared, it was inevitable that he would temporarily lose his vision.He couldn't feel the presence of others around him, he could only hear...

The sound of howling ghosts was louder and louder than the next, quite penetrating.

Formation...

The young master of the Lin family tried his best to recall the book of formations he had read in Master's cave and in the library of the Lin family, trying to find out the corresponding formations.

Darkness, ghost noises, and then...biting?

Lin Zhizhi only felt a pain in his nerve, as if something had bitten his arm viciously.But his body didn't feel it, it was his soul that hurt.

This kind of formation, turn to attack the soul!

He tried to summon the Immortal Questioning Sword that was shining with thunder, but he still couldn't see the light!Asking the Immortal Sword can only illuminate reality, and he——is in a ghost formation at this moment.

Lost sight.

Damn it, he was careless, and even made a mistake similar to Qi Ting's - overconfidence.With a young heart, he thought that Wen Xianjian was in his hand, and Tianke Moxiu, so he was not too careful.

So much so that it is now trapped in this formation.

Lin Zhizhi closed his eyes, and simply released his consciousness to survey the surrounding environment.

"Ghosts—!" Just as the ghost howling became more and more horrific, a familiar voice cut through the somewhat terrifying atmosphere.

Surprisingly, the demon spirit woke up from the bailing root.

"Do you know what this is?" Lin Zhizhi asked while resisting the attack of the ghost.

"I don't know, I just know one thing," Yao Ling licked his lips, and answered confidently, "They are delicious."

"..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the demon spirit with a stable soul floated out through Pei Linggen, transformed into a hand, picked up a terrifying screaming ghost, stuffed it into his mouth, and smashed it twice.

After swallowing the ghost, its soul power has increased a little.These immortal ghosts, who are trapped in the eyes of the formation and tortured, can be swallowed by it to enhance their strength!

Although Lin Zhizhi couldn't see it, he could feel it by hearing the sound.He was silent for a while and said, "Eat more."

At the beginning, the ghost spirits were very weak, and the demon spirits took one bite at a time.After recovering some of its strength, it opened its mouth quite simply, and a gust of wind sucked all the ghosts in front of it into its mouth.

Outside the formation, the middle-aged man who was in charge of manipulating the Thousand Ghosts Devouring God formation frowned deeply and listened attentively to the devil's weeping sound coming from the formation.

"Why is the voice getting smaller and smaller?" The man with the broken tendon asked suspiciously.

"The number of ghosts is decreasing!" The middle-aged man held the Thousand Ghosts Banner in his hand, and felt that the number of souls in the spiritual weapon had been reduced by half.

"Could it be...that kid also has a treasure that can defeat ghosts?"

Knowing that Lin Zhizhi has the magic weapon of thunder, it is very difficult to win without revealing his true identity on stage.They simply gave up the contest with real guns and swords, and went behind the scenes instead.While Sun and Qian sent people in, they quietly turned into shadows and followed them in.

They didn't care that Lin Zhizhi knew they were a fake loser, as long as he wanted to come to the quenching pool, he had to go through the formation they had already set up.Even if those Patriarchs come, they will still be trapped inside.It's just that he didn't expect that he also had the magic weapon to swallow ghosts.

It's not easy to form a ghost, and these are all his savings for most of his life, so he was promoted from a hundred ghosts to a thousand ghosts!The hardships in the middle were bloody and tearful.

He gritted his teeth, pinched the spell with his hand, and released the head of a thousand ghosts, a ghost in the foundation period!Different from human beings, to reach the Foundation Establishment stage, ghost spirits must at least have swallowed no less than five Foundation Establishment stage monks if their predecessors were at the Alchemy Stage.

He didn't believe it, the magic weapon of that black-haired boy was endless!Even this foundation-building ghost can be dealt with!

Soon, the demon spirit told him with actions: it really can.

At any rate, its predecessor was also the son of the commander, a great demon who could catch the ancient immortal with a glance.

Seeing this foundation-building ghost spirit, the demon spirit was not surprised but delighted. It had already swallowed many ghost spirits and their huge bodies. It rushed to the head of the ghost spirit, opened its mouth wide and bit off one of the other's arms.

The head of the ghost spirit looked up to the sky and screamed, trying to shake the demon spirit away.Persevering, the demon spirit treated the huge head of a thousand ghosts like a lump of mashed potatoes, and ate it into its stomach bit by bit.

While the head of the thousand ghosts was eaten, everyone trapped in the formation returned to reality.

The master of the formation vomited blood, with resentment in his eyes: "How could it be? My ghost—how did you do it?"

The demon spirit floated up and down in the air, and before Lin Zhizhi could speak, he jumped in front of the middle-aged man: "Stop shouting, I swallowed it. In order to thank you for giving me strength, I will help you realize a desire."

The man suddenly showed a look of joy, pointed at Lin Zhizhi and said, "Then kill him! You must be enslaved by him, right? Kill him, and you will be free!"

Hearing the word "enslavement", the demon spirit's hostility soared, and its soul body turned into a huge monkey. It slapped the middle-aged man with a distant palm and crushed him into a meatloaf: "I hate hearing this word the most. .”

He said grimly.

The huge palm swept across, sending the middle-aged man's two companions on the road.The demon spirit turned into a petite and cute little monkey, found the Qiankun Ring among the piles of corpses, and handed it to Lin Zhizhi.

Lin Zhizhi looked at it, and the well-known novel in the secular world jumped out on the paper. The young man tentatively asked, "... Wukong, is that you?"

Demon Spirit: "..."
