Chapter 227 – A few thousand


“Teng Qingshan, do you think your cousin will be okay?”

Ten kilometers away from here, two young men in black stood side by side on a high mountain, gazing into the distance.

The young man in black, Ji Ning, looked at the hundreds of magical treasures flashing in the distance, unable to help feeling a sense of alarm, and couldn’t help but ask Teng Qingshan beside him.

“Cousin should be fine, right?”

The young man in black, Teng Qingshan, also felt uneasy as he looked at the scene.

It was a siege by hundreds of Wanxiang experts. None of the Wanxiang geniuses present dared to say that they could withstand it. It would be good enough if they weren’t completely defeated!

“My cousin is much stronger than me, so he should be fine!”

Teng Qingshan thought of the cultivation of the Mountain and River Diagram in the past hundred years. Even if it was his cousin’s second primordial spirit, he and Pei Sansan joined forces and couldn’t even touch his clothes. He thought to himself.

Even so, he still felt anxious.

In the field.

Facing the hundreds of magical treasures attacking from the front, Xu Zong remained calm and unhurried. With a flip of his hand, he took out a long bow, then another flip, and took out an arrow, then bent the bow and nocked the arrow.

The power of the Great Dao of Wind and the Great Dao of Arrows converged on the arrow.

Not only that, in the face of countless deadly flashes, he even closed his eyes directly.

Seeing this scene, Xia Huangdu was startled, thinking that Xu Zong was planning to give up, and almost moved him out ahead of time.

Lu Dongbin, on the other hand, suddenly became excited and slammed the table.

“Mental power! It’s mental power! This little guy in the Wanxiang Realm has already made a breakthrough in mental power!”

Emperor Hao, Dashizhi, and others also showed surprised expressions.

This mental power is a force different from divine power and magical power. It can be said to be a third way of cultivation, but because it is so difficult to comprehend, many heavenly immortals find it difficult to understand. Therefore, the Dao Ancestors did not promote it in the Three Realms. A little guy in the Wanxiang Realm has already comprehended mental power, which is a rare existence in the entire Three Realms.

In the Mountain and River Diagram, Xu Zong bent the bow and nocked the arrow, and mental power gathered on the arrow, then shot the arrow!

The power of this arrow didn’t seem to be great, but looking at that arrow, everyone couldn’t help but feel that “this arrow came to life.”

For a moment, a sense of panic spread among the Wanxiang geniuses, as if a terrible will had emerged from the arrow, staring at them like the King of Hell.

In the blink of an eye, the arrow and the hundreds of magical treasures collided, a violent flash erupted, followed by a huge storm, and a terrifying shockwave peeled the surrounding mountains like a typhoon, rushing in all directions!

The nearby Wanxiang experts, except for some demon body refiners, couldn’t even withstand the shock, and were all blown away like floating duckweed, floating away.

At the point of collision, hundreds of flashes dissipated, and countless magical treasures splashed in all directions, only one arrow, with a comet-like light, shot up into the clouds and disappeared into the small world of the Mountain and River Diagram.

The shockwave dissipated, and the aftermath subsided.

Xu Zong stood in place, and within a few kilometers, there were only dozens of Wanxiang geniuses of the Qi Refinement flow, such as Xia Mangzishan and Jiusi, all looking at him in astonishment.

“What kind of magical treasure did you use?”

The wild youth Cangwu Ji stared in amazement, unable to help but exclaim.

Is this for real? Hundreds of Wanxiang experts joined forces, and they couldn’t even defeat him alone? Is there really such a terrifying Wanxiang Realm in the world?

“It’s just an ordinary Earth-grade magical treasure!”

Xu Zong shrugged, waving the pitch-black long bow in his hand back and forth, smiling. It seemed that everything was as before, and it didn’t seem like his divine power or magical power had been consumed much, and he wasn’t even panting.

His true self was only in the Wanxiang Realm, the twelfth level of the Bright Nine Heavens Diagram, and his Wanxiang Realm was complete, so he could only use Earth-grade magical treasures and couldn’t use higher-grade Heaven-grade magical treasures.

“However, you were able to force me to use a bow and arrow, which can be considered as triggering the third stage of the boss. I’ll reward you with ten thousand talismans!”

Xu Zong waved his hand, and ten thousand talismans appeared out of thin air and flew towards the crowd.

Many of the people’s eyes lit up among those dozens of people, all rushing towards the ten thousand talismans. Even if they killed to the end, the person with the most talismans might not even have ten thousand talismans. As long as they could get these ten thousand talismans, they would definitely be one of the final 96!

Seeing those people flying towards the ten thousand talismans, Xia Mangzishan frowned, then flew forward and joined the battle to grab the ten thousand talismans.

His own strength was enough to enter the final battle on the stage, but the ten thousand talismans that were scattered could threaten their spots, so it was best to have them in his hands.

The bald, dark-skinned youth, the simple and honest youth, and the Jiusi also rushed forward.

No one made a move against Xu Zong anymore.

The Qi Refinement flow geniuses who had been blown away also clearly realized that Xu Zong was not someone they could defeat, and all gave up on defeating the boss and joined the battle to grab the ten thousand talismans.

Xu Zong suddenly became relaxed.

“Amazing!”

On the mountaintop in the distance, Ji Ning couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, then praised endlessly.

“To defeat hundreds of Wanxiang experts in one go, this is something I wouldn’t even dare to think about, but Young Master Xu can do it. He is truly remarkable!”

Teng Qingshan also secretly let go of his worries in the midst of his amazement.

“Do you want to go challenge him?”

Teng Qingshan looked at Ji Ning and asked with a smile.

“Let’s forget it. I might not even be able to beat Xia Mangzishan, so I won’t go and embarrass myself.”

Ji Ning shook his head repeatedly.He is currently only at the eleventh level of the Crimson Bright Nine Heavens Chart, not yet having reached the perfection of Myriad Phenomena. In terms of comprehension of the Dao, although he has already grasped the domain of Sword Dao, he has understood very few minor paths, having only fully comprehended the minor path of Rainwater.

Meanwhile, Xia Mang Purple Mountain has reached the twelfth level of the Crimson Bright Nine Heavens Chart. Although he has not attained the domain level in the major Dao, he has fully comprehended four minor paths, and his overall strength is still above him.

He can’t even defeat Xia Mang Purple Mountain, let alone the Nine Deaths True Person. And the Nine Deaths True Person was also someone who was sent flying by a punch from Xu Zong. If he went up, he probably wouldn’t even match up to Xia Mang Purple Mountain.

“It seems this boss battle has already been settled.”

Atop the Heavenly Mang Palace, Emperor Xia relaxed, sitting back down on the dragon throne with a smile.

“This little fellow has just entered the threshold of the Myriad Phenomena Realm, he’s qualified to be taken as a disciple by the Dao Ancestor.”

“Indeed.”

Lv Dongbin and the others also nodded in agreement.

It seems he really is a disciple of a Dao Ancestor, but which Dao Ancestor’s disciple he is remains to be discussed.

And so, a day passed in the blink of an eye.

“This boss battle is over.”

Emperor Xia’s voice once again echoed throughout the entire Landscape Painting world.

“Given that the boss has not been defeated, during the trial period of the Landscape Painting, on the seventeenth of every month, the Boss will make a comeback, appearing for one day within the Landscape Painting. You will have more opportunities to challenge him!”

As soon as these words ended, Xu Zong was moved out of the Landscape Painting by Emperor Xia, returning to the Heavenly Mang Palace.

“Brilliant! That was a clean sweep!”

Lv Dongbin gave Xu Zong a thumbs up, then drained his cup of immortal brew in one gulp.

Emperor Hao, Great Momentum, and others also raised their cups in a friendly gesture, and Xu Zong naturally responded with a smile.

“However, appearing once a month…”

Lv Dongbin narrowed his eyes and stroked his chin.

“This way, within the Landscape Painting, it’s likely…”

Emperor Xia and the others exchanged glances, each having their own predictions about what was to come.

Inside the Landscape Painting, Xia Mang Purple Mountain and Cangwu Jiu were no longer busy fighting for the talismans but were instead gathering forces. They even declared that they wanted to unite the strength of all the geniuses to fight the boss to the death the next time it descended!

These Myriad Phenomena geniuses naturally had their own pride. They were all Myriad Phenomena True Persons, so why should only one person show off? Naturally, they all responded to Xia Mang Purple Mountain’s call.

Soon, hundreds of Myriad Phenomena geniuses gathered around Xia Mang Purple Mountain, and a large number of ordinary and outstanding geniuses also flocked to his side. The number grew more and more, and in a few days, it surpassed a thousand.

During this time, Ji Ning and Teng Qingshan encountered Yu Wei, who was being attacked by several Myriad Phenomena geniuses. The two joined forces to rescue her.

Lv Dongbin suddenly stood up from his seat, extremely excited.

“Look at that black-dressed girl’s eyes, so complex in an instant, she must have feelings for that Ji Ning!”

For a moment, Emperor Xia and the others were speechless.

Everyone was focused on the battle, and only he was shipping a couple!

“Right? I also think Yu Wei definitely has feelings for Ji Ning. They’re bound to become a pair!”

At this moment, Xu Zong also suddenly stood up, laughing loudly.

Regardless of whether Ji Ning marrying Yu Wei was a good or bad thing, it was ultimately the business of those involved. Xu Zong didn’t plan to interfere; he was just enjoying the show.

“Great minds think alike!”

Lv Dongbin’s eyes lit up, and he exchanged a look with Xu Zong, feeling like he had found a kindred spirit.

Emperor Xia and the others were even more speechless. How could someone else be on the same wavelength as Lv Dongbin?

After Ji Ning and Yu Wei met, Teng Qingshan immediately felt that the atmosphere between them was strange. After a moment of contemplation, he decisively bid farewell to Ji Ning and went off to explore the Landscape Painting world alone.

Soon, the seventeenth of the second month arrived.

“The second boss battle begins!”

Emperor Xia once again threw Xu Zong into the Landscape Painting.

It was the same place, the same time.

This time, the Myriad Phenomena geniuses within the Landscape Painting had already prepared in advance. Thousands of Myriad Phenomena geniuses gathered, with a sealing formation laid out around them, all ready for battle.

“Release!”

At Xia Mang Purple Mountain’s command, thousands of Myriad Phenomena geniuses simultaneously unleashed their magical treasures and secret techniques. White dragons, lotuses, and streams of energy surged forth, countless attacks twisting together into a rope, blasting towards Xu Zong at the center!

The attack of thousands of Myriad Phenomena, not to mention Earth Immortals or Loose Immortals, even a Heavenly Immortal might suffer heavy injuries if they took it head-on!

Seeing this, Xu Zong’s expression remained unchanged, and he even smiled slightly.

He took out a longbow again, bent the bow and set an arrow. This time, he truly unleashed his heartforce, firing an arrow!

In the blink of an eye, the entire Landscape Painting world shook violently!
