Chapter 149: Second Stage, The Battle for the Peak Head

Chapter 149: Second Stage, The Battle for the Peak Leader

Scanning the list, other than this Yan Lengyu, the general top ten were all above five million Martial Points, which made Zhou Xuan’s eyes water.

Taking another look at his own martial arts points, there was only a pitiful 100,000 at the beginning.

However, Zhou Xuan didn’t have the slightest bit of self-consciousness about being in the bottom of the list.

So what if it’s 100,000 martial arts points, looking at the names at the top of the list of martial arts points, he secretly said in his heart, these are all money pots ah.

I’m going to keep my martial arts points in good hands.

In the last few days, Lin Yunwu, a disciple of the Purple Sun Holy Land, came to Shangli County to find Zhou Xuan.

There were only thirteen disciples left out of the previous twenty.

The good news was that the seven who had disappeared had only been eliminated, rather than dying in the midst of the Martial Election.

Not waiting for Zhou Xuan to question, Lin Yunwu stepped forward and said after respectfully saluting, “Senior brother, after discussing with everyone, I have decided to place the saved martial points at your place first, I wonder if that is feasible?”

“This place is called Little God Peak, and I am the Little God Peak Mountain God, so in this second stage, I will be the one to state the rules for everyone.”

Many cultivators who weren’t Heaven’s Path Foundation builders couldn’t help but smile bitterly, this wasn’t good news for them.

Obviously, Zhou Xuan’s behavior in the Martial Election had long conquered them from body to heart.

After all, there were simply more than ten Saint Bodies and Divine Bodies present.

Looking around, the surrounding area was cloudy and misty, looking down to the bottom, it was obvious that this peak was at least ten thousand feet high.

Ten peaks.

“A divine peak can only have one peak leader. After each peak leader occupies a divine peak, for every day that it lasts, he or she will receive one million martial points, if he or she can become a peak leader on the first day and last for three months, it will be ninety million martial points.”

A gentle voice came from the very front.

At the end of the first stage, the familiar pillar of light enveloped him once again, Zhou Xuan’s body shook, and when he opened his eyes once more, he was already standing on top of a massive mountain peak.

After all, ever since they were young, they had understood the truth that the weak were the strong.

In the mid-air at the very front, floating in the air was an old man with a white beard and hair, who smiled faintly:
“For all of you to be able to survive the first stage of the Martial Selection, it means that you are all extremely good no matter if it’s your mind, disposition, or strength.”

The thirteen people’s Martial Points turned over, Zhou Xuan’s originally 100,000 Martial Points had instantly turned into several million, clearly during the time he had left Xingwu City, these people hadn’t done a lot of tasks.

“Meanwhile the new Peak Leader, can rest for a day, the others must pass a day before they can challenge.”

“Ten peaks, ten peak heads.”

What a diligent little bee.

As soon as everyone heard this, they were dazed.

“This is the second stage of the martial selection.”

The Small Divine Peak Mountain God signaled everyone to look in other directions.

“On the first day, each of you may choose a divine peak to occupy. When a certain cultivator becomes the peak leader under the great melee on the first day, he or she will have to follow the following rules.”

“Please be quiet, all of you.”

What’s more, the Small Divine Peak Mountain God had also said that ordinary cultivators could unite against the Peak Head, still giving them a chance.

Just like that, when the time came to an end, the first stage martial point ranked number one was Yan Lengyu, and at the same time, her number of martial points, was as high as 35 million, obviously on the last day, the other party was still madly doing tasks.

The dozen or so people then happily transferred their Martial Points to Zhou Xuan without the slightest bit of reluctance.

“Put me here for what?”

With a slight count, his heart was clear.

Zhou Xuan glanced at the crowd, “You all think this is best?”

Even if they could be lucky enough to become the peak leader under the melee on the first day, I’m afraid they wouldn’t be able to hold it for a day, right?

Before Zhou Xuan could even look away, he felt as if the heavens and earth were shaking, and when he looked around, he saw that at some point, a 10,000 foot mountain peak had risen up around the Little God Peak.

“This second stage, is the battle of the Peak Head.”

“All of you, please look.”

Seeing the crowd speak in unison, Zhou Xuan nodded slightly, “Alright, then transfer all the martial points to me.”

So it turns out.

All the cultivators participating in the Martial Election looked towards the front.

“Senior brother, we don’t know what form the second stage of the martial election will take, so we plan to hand over our martial points to senior brother, at that time, even if we are eliminated, the martial points will not be considered cheap for outsiders if they are in senior brother’s possession.”

Although the surrounding area was crowded, the square was obviously more spacious, so it wasn’t crowded.

Wasn’t this just a fight?
On the first day, all the divine peaks had no masters, so they had to choose the peak leader’s position under a melee.

“And for the second stage, it will take place here.”

Only without his leadership, everyone would not earn many martial points even if they did the quest.

“Yes.”

“For those who want to become the peak leader, ordinary cultivators can join together and challenge the peak leader without limiting the number of people, and for every day of guarding, the martial points will be equally divided; Heavenly Dao Foundation Building can at most five people join together to challenge the peak leader, and also for every day of guarding, the martial points will be equally divided; Sacred Bodies and Divine Bodies can only queue up to challenge the peak leader one by one, and the peak leader is not permitted to leave the middle of the Divine Peak that they have taken over, or they are deemed to have given up their position as the peak leader. ”

This second stage, was obviously prepared for special physiques, but they couldn’t say anything.

The chances, however, were still slim.

Even if fellow disciples joined together, they still couldn’t do anything at all to push their hearts. How could they fully cooperate to fight against those Saint Body and God Body?

“After an incense burns, all of you will be able to start competing for the position of the peak leader, so I wish you all the best of luck in martial arts.”

The Small Divine Peak Mountain God smiled faintly, and above the square, he left behind an incense burner that was slowly scorched by sparks, after which he performed a salute and disappeared without a trace.

Zhou Xuan looked towards the surroundings, and saw the worried faces of each cultivator, and it was clear that even those Sacred Bodies and Divine Bodies were worried in their hearts.

Even the powerful God Bodies could not help but frown.

Ordinary cultivators felt the darkness and thought that this second stage of Martial Selection was for special body types.

But how could these special physiques not be dissatisfied in their hearts?

One person holding out for ninety days? Is this possible?
A wheel battle would exhaust one to death, not to mention that even if one challenged, it wasn’t an open and shut challenge, it could still be a sneak attack.

In other words, they had to go ninety days without resting and tightening their spirits, even if they were special physiques they couldn’t do this ah.

Of course, if it was only a few days of defense, they thought they could still do it easily.

But obviously in this second stage, no matter if it was an ordinary cultivator, a Heaven’s Path Foundation, or a Sacred Body or Divine Body, all of them had a chance to obtain a large number of martial points.

And at this time, just as everyone was agonizing, Zhou Xuan searched for half a day without finding Lin Yunwu and the others.

Seeing this, he directly shouted, “Lin Yunwu, where are you people?”

The voice was so loud that it resounded throughout the Small Divine Peak, startling everyone, their gazes looking towards Zhou Xuan with displeasure in their eyes.

And right at this moment, a voice rang out from the left, “Senior Brother Zhou I’m here.”

Soon, Lin Yunwu and the others gathered around Zhou Xuan.

“The Martial Points are returned to you.”

“This, Senior Brother, you can keep the Martial Points for now, maybe we’ll be directly eliminated or die under the melee.”

Zhou Xuan was speechless as he looked at these people in front of him, seeing that once Lin Yunwu said that, everyone nodded their heads, clearly believing that it would be better to place the martial points on him.

Laozi is your depository, isn’t he?
But after thinking about it, he didn’t reject it.

Who knows how many of these senior siblings will be left under the melee later on? If they were eliminated and lost their martial arts points, it would still hurt if they were picked up by other cultivators.

“Senior brother, which divine peak did you choose?”

“I’ll do whatever.”

“With Senior Brother’s strength, he will surely be able to defend for ninety days in a row and take ninety million Martial Points.” There was a young junior sister who looked at Zhou Xuan with a face of adoration.

When the people beside him heard this, they couldn’t help but roll their eyes, they could really blow.

However, to their surprise, the rest of the Purple Sun Holy Land’s disciples nodded their heads in agreement, with a face of entitlement.

“Senior brother, say which divine peak you’re going to, and then we’ll go to another divine peak, so that we don’t get eliminated by others, but by you instead, senior brother.”

“Let’s go to that one, there’s more bamboo over there.”

Zhou Xuan smiled and pointed to a divine peak, looking from here, one could clearly see that this divine peak was covered in green bamboos, if the National Treasure came, he would definitely want to live here and not leave. “Senior brother likes bamboo?”

“Not bad.” Zhou Xuan said meaningfully, “I have a good friend who has two jade bamboos that are white and flawless, every time I play with them, they make me love them and linger.”

“Jade bamboo? That must be extremely divine.”

“Of course, after playing with this pair of jade bamboos, it’s as if my body and mind have been baptized.”

Upon hearing this, everyone could not help but reveal a look of longing for the jade bamboos in Zhou Xuan’s mouth.

Only Luo Bingya, who was in the Violet Sun Sacred Ground, heard this and her cheeks flew red as her pair of thighs under her purple skirt twisted uncomfortably.

And just as everyone was curious about the Jade Bamboo, the incense burnt out at the very front of the square.

The cultivators who were paying attention to this incense burner all the time, after this incense burned out, they all rose up in the air and sped towards their desired divine peak.

“Alright, the next step is up to you.”

After saying this, Zhou Xuan greeted everyone before slowly taking off into the air, and then flew towards the divine peak that he had named Green Bamboo.

What he didn’t realize was that after a small portion of people saw him heading towards the Green Bamboo Divine Peak, they all headed towards the other Divine Peaks, clearly not daring to go and compete with him for the position of Peak Leader of the same Divine Peak.

These people were all cultivators from the first stage of Xingwu City, including Nalan Baiyu, Xu Shanchuan and Xu Xiuzhi.

Although the three of them were of special physique and wanted to compete with Zhou Xuan in their hearts, they were helpless, as they all knew that they were not Zhou Xuan’s match at all.

Those Heaven’s Path Foundation Builders and Ordinary Foundation Builders of Xingwu City were even more so.

They had seen the terror of the Heavenly Thunder, and now that Zhou Xuan only had to stand in front of them, they might have to go weak in the knees.

Zhou Xuan, who did not know that his might had shocked Nalan Baiyu and the others, had not yet arrived at the Green Bamboo Divine Peak when he saw that a great battle had already started here.

Some cultivators, like him, flew very slowly, and once they saw so many people here, all of them stopped and sat in the air, apparently waiting for the number of people to decrease, so that the yellow bird was at the back.

Zhou Xuan entered the range of the Green Bamboo Divine Peak, he didn’t speak, but his body’s aura had already surged.

Boom…

A thunderbolt from the clear sky.

Even though it was a chaotic battle at this moment, the thunder was so loud that it attracted everyone’s attention, and as soon as countless people’s Divine Senses swept upwards towards the sky, they noticed a colorful thunderbolt slashing down towards one person in the air.

Seeing this, their bodies tensed up, but seeing that this thunder spell was not cast towards themselves, they could not help but feel relieved.

As the crowd took a look, the target of this thunder was actually Zhou Xuan.

Which idiot, didn’t know that the other party’s Thunder Dao had long since stepped into the Dao Fruit stage?

With this thought, they saw Zhou Xuan stretch out his right hand, and the colorful thunderbolt fell into his hand, transforming into a ball of electricity in an instant.

Afterwards, a small flame appeared in the center of the ball, and the moment the flame rose, it devoured the ball, turning it into a ball of fire with electric arcs flashing on its exterior.

The fireball then bloomed and transformed into a lotus flower.

It was a long story, but it was just a split second.

When the Seven Emotions Underworld Fire Lotus was born in Zhou Xuan’s hands, everyone present could feel the terror amongst this technique.

In particular, some cultivators whose minds were not cultivated to a high level felt dizzy after taking one look at this Seven Emotions Underworld Fire Lotus, and after reacting, they could not help but be shocked.

What kind of technique was this?
Zhou Xuan smiled faintly, ”You people still aren’t smart enough ah, you’re not even Heaven’s Path Foundation Builders, how dare you run over to the great melee? Take a look at the Little God’s Peak there, that’s the smart ones over there.”

Upon hearing this, the crowd glanced in the direction of the Small God Peak and were shocked.

Although the number of people at the Small Divine Peak had decreased, there were still a large number of cultivators who hadn’t even bothered to fight for the position of the peak leader of the Divine Peak.

In an instant, they figured out in their hearts that these people were planning to wait for the end of the great melee and then make plans.

After all, if they were unlucky, under the melee, even Heaven’s Path Foundation Establishment would likely be eliminated by ordinary cultivators.

Some people, seeing this, directly figured out that their bodies stormed back, and then directly cast a recluse spell to flee the place, clearly Zhou Xuan was very reasonable.

Others took a look and also cast their Transportation Methods to leave.

Of course, it wasn’t that they had figured it out, but since Zhou Xuan had come over, thinking that the other party’s four major Dao Intentions of Thunder, Gold, Fire and Water had stepped into the Dao Fruit Stage, even if they were able to eliminate the others, so what? In the end, they would definitely not be able to defeat Zhou Xuan.

In an instant, on the side of the Green Bamboo Divine Peak, two thirds of the cultivators were directly missing.

“They’ve all left, you guys aren’t leaving, it seems like you want to compete with me?”

“Zhou Xuan, we cultivators are meant to go against the heavens, is it too naive of you to want us to leave with a single word?”

“Since all of you are staying, your arts must not be immune to Zhou Xuan, in that case, why don’t we join forces to eliminate them before anything else, how about it?”

“Good.”

“Exactly!”

These words caused Zhou Xuan to stifle a smile.

He wasn’t surprised, after all, there were always people in this world who didn’t know the heights of heaven, “Since that’s the case, then don’t blame me for being impolite.”

His idea was simple, let these cultivators go to the other Divine Peaks to try out the success of those Divine Bodies, and it would be best to force those Sacred Bodies and Divine Bodies to come over to his side with a large number of people.

Killing ordinary cultivators was tasteless now and couldn’t bring up any excitement, only the Heaven’s Path Foundation Establishment’s Purple Mansion Realm and special body types could excite him.

However, he wouldn’t be polite if these people refused to do so.

With that, Zhou Xuan flicked his finger.

The Seven Emotions Underworld Fire Lotus in his hand flicked around and sped towards the nearest cultivator.

The speed of the Seven Emotions Underworld Fire Lotus was extremely fast, and the cultivator was engulfed before he could react, turning into ashes in an instant.

At this sight, the crowd couldn’t help but be creeped out.

Right at this moment, someone realized that a cultivator not far away from him, his head suddenly leaped high up, and in the blink of an eye, his body died.

He couldn’t help but tremble with rage, “Asshole! Someone sneak attacked?”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Xuan could not help but laugh, “You can’t even feel my Thunderstorm Sword, and you guys still want to compete with me for this Peak Head position, what a joke.”

After Zhou Xuan finished his sentence, the Thunder Thrilling Sword had already slashed ten people in a row, it was truly a slash and burn.

Some of the people who had just clamored to unite, and had not yet begun to do so, saw this, and in fear, without saying a word, directly fled for their lives.

At this moment, they completely woke up to the fact that even if they and the others were outnumbered, they could not compete with Zhou Xuan.

If they didn’t run now, I was afraid that the Martial Election wouldn’t stand a chance.

Some of them were even more horrified to realize that those who had died were not eliminated, but had directly died.

Seeing this situation, after being shocked, they cleverly gave up silently in their hearts.

This was because they knew that Zhou Xuan was a cultivator of Thunder Dharma, so he must be proficient in Thunder Escape.

Thunder escape speed is extremely fast, now even if you run, I’m afraid that you can not run out of this Qingzhu Divine Peak will have to be killed by Zhou Xuan, it is better to withdraw directly from the martial arts election.

In the martial arts election and life, naturally, life is the main focus.

“Smart.”

Zhou Xuan watched as some people suddenly collapsed to the ground and guessed what was going through these people’s minds, and could not help but praise them.

His Thunderstorm Sword and Seven Emotions Underworld Fire Lotus then directly killed towards the others.

In a short period of time, Zhou Xuan was the only one left in the entire Green Bamboo Divine Peak.

With a stretch of his hand, the Seven Emotions Underworld Fire Lotus once again fell into his hands as Zhou Xuan gazed towards the corner, teasingly saying, “Had enough of the drama?”

At those words, a young man stepped out from the shadows, his eyes burning as he looked at the Seven Emotions Underworld Fire Lotus in Zhou Xuan’s hands, unable to help but ask, “What kind of technique is this?”

“Seven Emotions Underworld Fire Lotus, it is my self-created technique.”

“Brother Zhou’s atmosphere.”

Zhang Qingyuan had only asked subconsciously, but he did not expect Zhou Xuan to actually answer.

With an arch of his hand, he directly said, “I am Zhang Qingyuan, a True Successor of the Cloud Dream Sacred Ground.”

“What physique do you have?”

“The Ten Thousand Methods True Physique.”
