Chapter 144: Battle for Fame
Ginger Cloud knew about this beforehand, at the moment, he was still incapable of cultivating, except for being able to emit a faint spiritual energy.Needless to say, he didn't know what the check was...Everyone was stunned once again. Although they could all see that Jiang Yun was deliberately trying to provoke Luo Lingxiao, none of them could figure out the reason behind it.
Especially now Jiang Yun's situation and just a moment ago, there is no difference at all, only Luo Lingxiao's attitude has changed.
If Luo Lingxiao was just trying to embarrass Jiang Yun before, now he truly has the intention to kill him.
This falling strike will absolutely have no more deviation!
At this moment, Luo Baichuan frowned tightly. He didn't know whether to step in and stop him or let Luo Lingxiao kill Jiang Yun. He could only look at the distant statue.
Although the Luo Family has a solid foundation, as the largest sect in Nanshan Prefecture, the Wen Dao Sect also possesses immense strength!
Therefore, even if the Luo family hated the Question Dao Sect with all their heart, they wouldn't dare to let Luo Lingxiao kill Jiang Yun in front of so many people. After all, this competition was specially arranged by the Luo family.
If Ginger Cloud died at the hands of Luo Lingxiao, it wouldn't take long for the Luo family to face the crazed revenge of the Wenda Sect.
Apparently aware of Luo Baichuan's worries, Luo Qing's voice sounded in his ear: "Don't worry, this Jiang Yun, killing him is just killing him, it's also for my Luo family, reducing a potential threat!"
To be honest, Luo Qing's attitude surprised Luo Baichuan slightly, but he was immediately invigorated.
What the Ancestor could think of, he could also think of. But since the Ancestor still held an attitude of killing Jiang Yun, it means the Ancestor is not afraid of the Daoist School's revenge.
Although it is unknown where Patriarch Luo got his confidence from, this is a great thing for Luo Baichuan, and even the entire Luo family.
"Hum!"
The golden greatsword of the Jin Gang Demon Ape, whistling through the air, was less than an inch from Jiang Yun's head. Just then, Jiang Yun, who had been constantly watching Luo Lingxiao, suddenly raised his hand and grabbed at the greatsword above his head with all his might!
"Bang!"
A dull voice sounded, though not loud, it boomed like thunder, exploding heavily in the ears of every cultivator present!
Jiang Yun, unexpectedly, used his bare hands to seize the golden sword, halting its descent!
The golden greatsword contained a power of flesh and blood that was so formidable, it likely even frightened cultivators who had achieved a small success in the Blessed Land stage. However, holding the greatsword, Jiang Yun's entire body remained as steady as Mount Tai, without the slightest tremor.
Then, with a deafening boom, the platform exploded, sending Jiang Yun, Luo Lingxiao, and the golden-furred demon ape crashing to the ground. The impact shook the earth slightly.
Even as he landed, Jiang Yun's palm remained completely still, to the point that even the Jin Gang Demon Ape was forced to maintain its posture of slashing with a sword, standing there like a statue.
Obviously, even with all his might, the Golden Gang Demon Ape couldn't shake the greatsword held by Jiang Yun at all, let alone pull it out.
As for Luo Lingxiao, his entire face had become completely stiff, and he even forgot to use his spiritual energy. With a thud, he fell onto the ground, sitting in the mud, his eyes glazed over as he stared at Jiang Yun, his gaze fixed on Jiang Yun's hand that held the greatsword.
The crowd around them fell silent, everyone staring wide-eyed at the frozen figure, the sword, and the ape!
After a long while, a voice that was almost a moan finally came from the crowd: "Flesh, the power of the flesh!"
Yes, the power of the flesh!
Jiang Yun also relied on his powerful physical strength to withstand the golden armored demon ape's sword strike!
And judging by his calm demeanor, this wasn't even all he had.
As soon as the sound echoed, countless cultivators went completely berserk!
From the moment Ginger Cloud crossed the Devil's Bridge, to this very instant, everyone believed that Ginger Cloud excelled in magical attacks. However, only now have they truly understood.
Originally, Ginger Cloud's physical strength was also incredibly powerful, even stronger than this first-order Golden Armor Demon Ape!
Naturally, everyone understood that when facing the second sword earlier, Jiang Yun's refusal to dodge or evade wasn't because of what Luo Lingxiao had said.
He was indeed fearless, but he relied on his own physical strength. At that time, he had already prepared to meet that sword with his bare hands.
This time, due to Luo Lingxiao's words, Ginger Yun's image in the eyes of the crowd dropped, and instantly became much taller again, even surpassing her previous status.
Neither humble nor arrogant, with tenfold meridian circulation, masterful techniques, a formidable Daoist body, and the power of his physical being—all these things will ensure that the name "Jiang Yun" will be spread throughout the mouths of these nearly ten thousand cultivators present today through this battle.
This was indeed a battle to make a name for oneself.
It's a pity, just like when Zheng Yuan faced Jiang Yun that battle, what was raised wasn't Luo Lingxiao's name, the young master of the Luo family, but Jiang Yun's!
As for Luo Lingxiao, of course, he played a role and successfully became Jiang Yun's stepping stone to fame.
Compared to the frenzy of these cultivators, the Luo family's faces naturally became extremely unsightly.
Because they have been making things difficult for Jiang Yun from the very beginning, however, Jiang Yun has given the Luo family slap after slap with his actions.
Especially now, the young master of the Luo family, the next head of the Luo family, was actually easily defeated by Jiang Yun. This made their Luo family lose face.
However, within the left eye of the statue of Luo Family patriarch, Old Ancestor Luo Qing furrowed his brows and muttered to himself, "Even Ling Yao's Heavenly Eye can't see through his cultivation realm, but possessing such powerful physical strength, could it be that he doesn't just have one Dao Body, but two"
"Well, how is this possible! Cultivators at the Tenth Stage of Meridian Opening indeed exist, but cultivators at the Eleventh Stage of Meridian Opening have never appeared, even within the Vast Sea Realm."
"What on earth is going on"
In the heat of battle, Jiang Yun finally released the greatsword from his grasp. At that moment, a look of relief appeared in the eyes of the golden armored demon ape, and even its gaze towards Jiang Yun held a hint of gratitude.
Although it lost, at least it no longer had to endure the pain of being tormented by gold needles for now. This was also the reason why Jiang Yun was willing to expose his physical strength and fight quickly.
"Young Master Luo, shall we continue the competition"
Seeing Luo Lingxiao still sitting on the ground, Jiang Yun knew that the other party had completely lost his fighting spirit. Even because of today's defeat, it was very likely that he would be stripped of his status as young master by the Luo family.
In other words, Luo Lingxiao is finished!
Without waiting for Luo Lingxiao's reply, Jiang Yun turned around and walked gracefully to Luo Baichuan's side. He politely bowed and said, "Thank you, Young Master Luo, for your concession. I wonder when I can receive the prize for first place"
"You!" Although Luo Baichuan wanted to slap Jiang Yun to death, he could only forcibly suppress his anger and say, "Rest assured, it's just a trivial prize. Our Luo family won't go back on our word. It will be delivered to your residence shortly!"
Then I'll thank you first!
Jiang Yun smiled faintly, walked back to his original position, and Luo Baichuan glared at the crowd and said: “Please go back and rest for a while. Later it will be the birthday of my Luo family ancestor, and after the birthday banquet ends, the three masters of the Yaoshengzong will have something important to tell everyone!”
First released on the Traditional Chinese Novel Networky I won't go to the City Lord's Mansion again, so senior's kindness, I understand."As Gao Song's voice faded, Jiang Yun suddenly took a step toward him and said, "If you no longer enter the Chaos Real...
