Chapter 1008 Reflections
Chapter 1008 – Reflection
These days in the chapter tail mountain, Xu Chuniang’s life ushered in a short period of peace, daily flipping through the array of books, accompanied by Xiaobai chat will be day, but also have some leisure.
Just her heart is clear, such days will not last long, leisure in her, is never a necessity.
Mountain years in a hurry, a month time passes in a flash, today is the last day of the truce period, Xu Chuniang said goodbye to Xiaobai, and Gong Lao together left the chapter tail mountain.
Gong Lao rubbed his fists and palms, a look to do a big job.
A while ago he bet in the arena, although the amount of money bet on each fight is not much, but together also won a lot of immortal crystals, almost more than his previous year’s income.
These five months Xu Chun girl has been on hiatus, without this additional source of income, Gong Lao always felt that something was missing.
It was not easy to wait for her to return to the arena, so he had to take advantage of the opportunity to do so.
It was just that Gong Lao did not anticipate that Xu Chunma had just returned to the arena and ushered in a strong enemy.
Her first fight was just two days later, and her opponent was an Abyssal Stone Man who was invulnerable to swords, spears, water and fire, named Shi Lin.
As a Superior C Fighter, Shi Lin had amassed some fame in the fighting arena by relying on his superior talent and ultra-high win rate.
Some people said that with Shi Lin’s strength, he could have impacted level B a long time ago, and that he had stayed in the level C fighting arena to hone his strength and beat his body.
Shi Lin himself didn’t admit or deny this kind of argument, but after careful comparison, people with a heart found that in the past two or three years, Shi Lin’s stone human body had gotten stronger and stronger, and was no match for a Human Immortal Upper Grade Immortal Artifact.
After learning the news, Gong Lao was always a bit uneasy, and after deliberately inquiring about Shi Lin, he worriedly approached Xu Chuniang.
“I’ve inquired, this Shi Lin, being an Abyssal Stone Man, with a stone body tempered to the point of being comparable to an Immortal Weapon, is not a good one to deal with, to be honest, even if the old man I were to face him, I don’t have much certainty that I would be able to win.”
Xu Chuniang did not expect that Gong Lao would make a special trip because of this, and while she was surprised, she was also a little moved.
She knew that Gong Lao had inquired about this information for her, not just for the Immortal Crystals, otherwise why would he have to make this trip on purpose?
She remembered the information that the monkey several people had helped her inquire about, and after a moment of contemplation, she said, “The Abyssal Stone Man is indeed very strong, but they are not all without weaknesses, the Stone Man’s body is cumbersome and slow, I just don’t have to be different from him to come at him the hard way.”
Gong Lao shook his head disapprovingly, “If it was just like that, I wouldn’t have to make this trip, do you know that Shi Lin’s stone body is just one of his avatars?
He has another real body, hidden within the stone body, just waiting for the time to come, then he will deliver a fatal blow.”
Xu Chuniang was truly surprised this time, “There is actually such a thing?”
The monkeys were only d-level fighters, and the information they could find out was extremely limited, so they did not know that Shi Lin’s stone body was an avatar.
Xu Chuniang had been a loner since she entered the arena, rarely making friends with others, and before this, she didn’t even know that there was Shi Lin in the arena.
Gong Lao nodded with a heavy face, ”Girl Xu, how are you going to deal with this battle?
Although you have a lot of law power at your disposal, it’s already known by the crowd, so as long as Shi Lin prepares some Immortal Artifacts and treasures in a targeted manner before the fight, it’ll be able to cause your law power to be greatly diminished.”
Xu Chuniang also thought of this point and frowned slightly.
As a matter of fact, the number of Laws she had mastered far exceeded the crowd’s imagination.
But when wood shows in the forest, the wind will destroy it, and she, a tiny Human Immortal with no background, winning twenty to thirty matches in a row in the fighting arena was already enough to make a name for herself, and if she revealed more strength, there was no guarantee that she wouldn’t be targeted by those big powers again, and put their mark on her.
Thinking of this, Xu Chuniang’s back went cold, a fine layer of cold sweat breaking out.
Come to think of it, it was actually quite unreasonable for her to meet such a strong opponent as Shi Lin when she had just been promoted to a Superior C Fighter. She knew that the arena was arranged in such a way, certainly because she had won consecutively all the way and was gaining momentum, but Shi Lin’s strength was far from being comparable to that of an ordinary Superior C Fighter, and was still a small realm higher than her.
If the other party had prepared targeted Immortal Weapons and treasures to deal with her, she might not be able to win against Shi Lin without revealing more of her strength.
So …… was it a mere coincidence that the fighting arena made such an arrangement, or did it want to force out more of her strength?
The more Xu Chuniang thought about it, the calmer she became, and in the first few months, in order to earn more Immortal Crystals, she had been winning non-stop.
But what happened after winning, was that she kept advancing and encountering stronger opponents.
Sure, she had earned a large amount of Immortal Crystals in a short period of time, but as a result, she had attracted the attention of many people and pushed herself into the wind.
Shi Lin, she was confident that she could win, but after winning Shi Lin, there would be more and stronger opponents waiting for her.
Above level B, there was also level A. She, who had no background in the Immortal World, would only fall head over heels if she went too fast.
It couldn’t go on like this.
Xu Chuniang realized this more and more soberly, in this battle with Shi Lin, she had to lose!
Not only must she lose, but she must also lose in a real and tragic way, so that everyone can see that her strength is “nothing more than that”.
“Girl Xu, I’m asking you, what are you staring at?”
Gong Lao reached out and waved his hand in front of Xu Chuniang’s eyes, “You and I will make a confession, this battle with Shi Lin, how many percent certainty can win?”
Xu Chuniang came back to her senses and sighed helplessly, stretching out a finger, “Less than 10%.”
Gong Lao’s breath hitched, “How can it be even less than 10%, are you not making fun of me?”
After witnessing Xu Chuniang’s streak of victories along the way, Gong Lao now had a kind of blind confidence in her, Shi Lin was a bit tricky, but the victory rate wasn’t so low, right?
Xu Chuniang spread her hands, her tone innocent.
“Your old man also said just now, Shi Lin will stone body boiled to its hardness, a stone body is comparable to a divine weapon, he is standing there for me to fight, I take the quarry chisel also can not help him ah.”
Gong old man stared, “stone quarrying chisel that is the tool of quarrying stone, you fool around, but also hold as immortal weapon make, can top what use?
Take advantage of the fact that there are still two days before the competition begins, you hurry to purchase a competent immortal weapon! Yes, hurry up!”
Xu Chuniang blinked and said frankly, “I don’t have any money!”
“If you don’t have any money, I’ll lend it to you, free of charge, no interest!”
With a wave of his hand, Boss Gong was close to directly yanking her up and walking her out the door.
Xu Chuniang sighed softly, “Not to mention the fact that there isn’t enough time, I’m afraid that an ordinary immortal weapon wouldn’t even be able to break Shi Lin’s skin.”
Gong Lao knew in his heart that she was right, sighing up and complaining, “A month ago, you shouldn’t have gone back to Zhangwei Mountain and stayed in the city to look for a handy Immortal Weapon, and it wouldn’t be so bad that you don’t even have a decent Immortal Weapon.”
