Chapter 1922 Gradually Escalating
Hongye Ridge has no shortage of golden elixirs and can afford the gamble, so the next thing to discuss is the details.
The Li family hopes to have three one-on-one fights and two battle array fights, but they also do not want life-and-death fights.
As for the specific battle formation, it doesn’t matter. It depends on the needs of Hongyeling.
The Li family was indeed well-informed and actually knew that Hongye Ridge had used a battle formation before.
At the same time, we have to admit that the Li family really has the arrogance of a big family - pick what you are good at, and we will accompany you!
However, Flower Scorpion said that he could fight five games, but he had to raise the stakes!
For five foundation-building fights, you are all willing to pay for a Nascent Soul technique. For five Golden Core fights, are the stakes the same?
Her requirements were not high. Just two more Nascent Soul techniques would be enough. If Hongyeling lost, she would give up the claim!
If the stakes are still the same, then we can only fight three games.
Of course, her request cannot be said to be excessive. Foundation Building and Golden Core... are originally worlds apart, right?
However, after hearing this request, Li Jingtian felt a little depressed: Where the hell can I steal two more Nascent Soul techniques?
Paying one book and betting one book, this is almost the limit of the family.
Now there are two more books. You can’t take out the skills related to the Li family, right?
Li Jia Jindan relayed the ancestor's intention, hoping to add only one more book.
The answer from Flower Scorpion almost made him vomit blood - if you can't afford to play, don't provoke me. Do you really think our Jindan has so much free time?
The problem was pushed back to Li Jingtian, and he became depressed again.
In addition to the fact that it was difficult to find the Yuanying technique, he actually had another worry in his heart: would the Jindan be a life-and-death battle?
The Lingyin Li family has no shortage of Nascent Souls, and even more Golden Cores. However, how many more can they have?
After five games, if the stakes increase, the opponent will become more ruthless, and even if it is not a life-and-death battle, it will cause considerable losses.
As the high-end combat force of the Li family... and even the entire Dongsheng Continent, each of the Jindan Zhenren is extremely precious.
Moreover, it is unlikely to expect other real people in the family to fight desperately for the stupid thing Li Yuqing did.
It’s no big deal to plot against other people’s property. What’s embarrassing is being caught. What’s even more annoying is that you’ve hit a wall.
Li Yuqing was originally an average person among the family's golden elixirs.
As for other real people, each has their own demands and expectations. They can help, but it’s hard to say when it comes to life and death.
If we reduce it to three fights, we should be able to get the required number of people without having to increase the stakes.
But three games...can they win? Li Jingtian was really not optimistic.
Hongyeling just defeated Dai Wanwan and her group, it was a golden elixir fight!
One of the sword cultivators was defeated by a thunder cultivator from Red Leaf Ridge. This could not be hidden from anyone, after all, there were thunder and lightning all over the sky.
Dai Wanwan also suffered a crushing defeat. There are multiple versions circulating about how she was defeated.
But no matter what, Dai Wanwan was defeated. The person who could defeat her must have extremely powerful fighting ability.
The two victorious Jindan from Hongye Ridge have a great chance of winning against the Li family's Jindan, and the probability of a quick victory is not small.
There is one game left, what difference does it make even if we win?
Thinking of the last part, Li Jingtian frowned slightly, "Is it possible that the only option is to gamble with Yuanying?"
There is no doubt that according to the existing stakes, a Yuanying bet is enough, and the other party probably will not refuse.
However, this was not his intention.
Li Jingtian seems to be arrogant, but that is just an appearance. How could he be a brainless person if he is responsible for handling this matter?
But there was nothing he could do now. After thinking it over, he felt that he could only have a Nascent Soul duel.
When Li's Jindan put forward the suggestion, Hua Xiezi looked at him with a strange look.
After about ten breaths, she finally asked, "Is the Li family serious this time?"
"Of course," Li Jia Jin Dan replied solemnly, "but we strongly suggest that you stop at this point and limit yourself to sparring."
"Haha," Flower Scorpion chuckled with an ambiguous meaning, "Actually, you don't have to fight."
The rules of the Li family are not as relaxed as those of Hongyeling. This Jindan could only say, "This is what the ancestor meant."
Flower Scorpion shook his head and sighed, "I've gone astray. It's my own fault... We declare that we can't guarantee that we'll stop there!"
No matter what, the Yuanying bet has been set.
However, Li Jingtian immediately made another request, saying that he did not want Immortal Chao Yun to participate in the gambling fight.
Because he felt that this person had some prejudice against the Li family and had once proposed a very extreme duel plan.
Li Jingtian reiterated that he hoped both sides could stop at the right point, so he suggested that Hongyeling change a candidate.
If Hongyeling does not accept it, the Li family would rather give up the fight and pretend that he has never made any new suggestions.
Upon hearing this news, Qu Jianlei couldn't help but shook his head, "Is it really... not over yet?"
It’s said that dealing with big families makes one feel particularly uncomfortable, and this is what I mean.
The combat capability of the Paranoid is not the highest in the team, but it is definitely worth mentioning.
The other party's suggestion not only eliminated a strong opponent, but also obtained relevant information about the second True Immortal in Hongye Ridge!
Needless to say, at least we can partially understand the situation of our top combat forces.
Qu Jianlei believed that when Li Jingtian proposed the duel between the foundation-building cultivators, his purpose was not simple.
Saving face is only one of the needs; the more likely possibility is to explore the roots of Hongye Ridge.
Low-level cultivators have little knowledge and few methods, so it is easy for them to expose their true colors in battle.
But since the other party has raised the question, he might as well fight. Faced with the endless temptations, he was a little annoyed.
The most direct and effective way to deal with various tricks is to crush them with force.
So the two sides agreed that at noon seven days later, they would start a Nascent Soul duel deep in Yinling Mountain.
Li Jingtian said that Hongyeling could invite middlemen to serve as witnesses - you can invite as many people as you want, and my Li family will also invite as many people as you want.
This also involves testing, wanting to know which force they are related to.
Qu Jianlei's teeth ached, and he said bluntly: Hongye Ridge does not need to invite anyone, and if the Li family does not dare to follow, just admit defeat.
On the fifth day, a middle-aged man with an extremely ordinary appearance appeared in the teleportation array of Yanjiafang City.
The middle-aged man walked out of the teleportation array, and as he walked, his figure gradually became blurred, and finally he completely disappeared into the air.
The next moment, he appeared at Li Jingtian's place and said expressionlessly, "I am more expensive than Fengyu Tower."
Li Jingtian greeted the other party warmly for the first time, "Yougen, sit down... The key is that you can't use Fengyu Tower, the other party..."
"You don't have to say it," the man shook his head, "I'm not interested in listening. It's just a show."
"It's different," Li Jingtian shook his head and said seriously, "The other party might kill him, it's very likely!"
"Oh, it seems that you are not afraid of our Li family." The middle-aged man still had no expression on his face, but there was a faint gleam in his eyes. "It's rare."
"You must take this seriously!" Li Jingtian was still worried, "Once you find yourself defeated, admit defeat immediately."
"It's not worth inviting you here just for a small golden elixir. We can't afford the loss."
"I don't want to die either," the middle-aged man answered casually, but his face was still stiff, as if he was wearing a mask.
A day later, near dusk, three figures flashed on Hongye Ridge and disappeared.
Yinling is located on the southwest side of Hongyeling, about 5,000 kilometers long.
This is a barren mountain area with sparse vegetation, biting cold winds blowing all year round, and no human habitation.
Three figures landed on the ground, they were Qu Jianlei, Jing Yuexin and Duo Gan.
The three of them came to participate in the fight scheduled for tomorrow, so they came a day in advance to check out the location. There would be no need to come earlier.
Jia Shuiqing, Qing Hu and the paranoid stayed in Hongye Ridge to guard it.
When a fight like this is arranged, it is inevitable that some people will think about stealing the house. If that happens, it will be a huge joke.
Arriving at this place, everyone stopped hiding and released their spiritual sense to explore everywhere.
The three people have a total of five spiritual consciousnesses, and the extra ones are naturally Jiao Daoren and Yi He.
After investigating for a while, Jiao Daoren and Yi He exclaimed at the same time, "Is there still the aura of a large formation?"
This was one of the battlefields where humans and tiger people fought each other. The reason why Yinling has become so gloomy and eerie is due to the war.
After the war, the immortal cultivators of Dongsheng cleaned up the place and set up a large formation to eliminate the remaining foul air and filth.
A hundred years later, the immortal cultivators stopped adding spirit stones and waited for the water to recover naturally.
I didn't expect that even now, there is still the remnant of the formation.
However, Duo Gan raised a question, "Is it possible that the other party chose this place to set up a formation to ambush us?"
Qu Jianlei snorted, "They'd better not have such thoughts!"
Before several people could retract their spiritual consciousness, it collided with other spiritual consciousnesses, and everyone was stunned.
The situation on the other side was also a bit strange. After a fluctuation in space, the two groups met.
In addition to Li Jingtian and Li Yuren, the other side also had a white-haired old man, who was none other than Yan Jinhai, the Taishang of the Yan family.
The Yuanying challenged each other for a fight. On one side was Hongye Ridge, which was on the Yan family's territory. With Li Yuren watching as a witness, the fake infant Taishang had to come as well.
In addition to these three, there was also a dull middle-aged man with an obscure aura.
However, Qu Jianlei and the other two had extremely strong perceptions and could instantly sense that this person was emitting a very dangerous aura.
The eyes of the three people were instantly focused on this person.
The four people opposite also looked at each other in unison, and they first looked at the little snake on Qu Jianlei's wrist.
Obviously, this inconspicuous little snake has been recognized by the other party as the Nascent Soul Immortal Beast.
Then, the four of them turned their eyes to Qu Jianlei.
The two Kun cultivators were undoubtedly in the Nascent Soul stage, and they felt the strength of each other's spiritual awareness.
Previous news showed that there was indeed a Nascent Soul Kun cultivator in Hongye Ridge.
But this man... was not the Immortal Chao Yun whom they knew, but a new face they had never seen before.
All four of them were in the Nascent Soul stage, so it was absolutely certain that this person was not Chao Yun in disguise - aura could not deceive people at all.
Although the other party's aura was also obscure, there was no doubt that he was also a Nascent Soul.
Putting aside other things, if a Nascent Soul beast could obediently wrap itself around one’s wrist, could it be possible that one’s cultivation level was lower than that of a Nascent Soul?
And looking at the positions where the three people were standing, the two Nascent Soul Kun cultivators seemed to be respecting this person!
