Chapter 454: A showdown
After devouring Frost Bear King’s beast core, Lu Ping’an found that since the last time he upgraded the system, he had accumulated a lot of blood value.
So, he issued a command to the system to unlock the function of "improving absorption efficiency to 200%".
After a while, the system said: "Unlocked successfully! The blood value of 5000 points deducted, the remaining blood value: 1243."
Although Lu Pingan is not in a hurry to improve his cultivation level, he has unlocked this function in advance, and when he needs it next time, he doesn't need to operate temporarily.
At his level of cultivation, every time he breaks the boundary, he has to absorb and refine a large amount of spiritual energy.
And the improvement of absorption efficiency will undoubtedly bring him very significant benefits, and it can also save a lot of spirit stones or beast cores.
As for another new feature brought about by the upgrade to the sixth-level system, that is, "increase the bloodline attribute of the body", Lu Ping'an can only temporarily put it aside.
Because based on Lu Ping's bloodline, the bloodline attributes that need to be increased are extremely rare special attributes.
The prerequisite for accomplishing this is that one must first obtain a bloodline with special attributes before it can be added to his body bloodline.
So before getting this kind of blood, Lu Ping'an naturally didn't need to care about this function.
After dealing with these bloodline and system matters, Lu Ping'an began to adapt to the bloodline power of the Frost Bear King, silently running in his body, constantly deepening his understanding...
...
For a period of time after that, Lu Pingan and others continued to follow the route that Zhuang Qingxi had set before.
During this period, the journey has not been smooth sailing, and they will still encounter some sudden natural disasters and attacks by monsters.
But fortunately, the situation was not very dangerous. With the cooperation of a few of them, they all passed through safely, only occasionally suffered minor injuries.
At noon more than ten days later, everyone walked to a place that felt safer and rested.
Lu Pingan asked Zhuang Qingxi: "According to what you said before, we should be able to reach Sucheng in two or three days now, right?"
Zhuang Qingxi took out a magic weapon similar to a compass, poured spiritual power into it, and then carefully felt it for a while, before putting it away, nodded, and said, "Well, it will be there in about two days."
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but feel excited.
Although arriving at Sucheng does not necessarily mean that the cause of the beast tide can be found out, but after all, there is hope to get close to the truth. It is better than just rushing through the vast snowy field for more than two months without gain.
In addition, it is particularly important for them to find the direction and route to Baize Country.
Chen Buzhan said with a feeling: "It's finally here, not to mention, at least I can rest there for a few days."
Lu Pingan smiled and nodded, expressing agreement.
Even though they are taking a break now, in this environment, they can't even be able to feel at ease, let alone the issue of comfort.
Even if they are all monks with good strength, they will inevitably feel physically and mentally exhausted after running for such a long time. They need a relatively stable place to live and recuperate.
At this moment, Qin Sanchuan, who was sitting aside, suddenly said, "Yes, it's finally here."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned again, feeling that he meant something else.
Afterwards, Qin Sanchuan stood up, his eyes fell on Zhuang Qingxi, and said, "I mean, it's time for the two of us to have a showdown!"
Everyone in Lu Pingan knew that Qin Sanchuan's words meant that he had already breached the Yuanyang Realm!
Stepping into the Yuanyang Realm, you belong to the real powerhouse, which is certainly a good thing to be happy about.
But what followed was a situation that Lu Pingan and the others didn't want to see.
They thought that Qin Sanchuan would break through after reaching the city of Su, so this matter might turn around.
Unexpectedly, before they arrived in Sucheng, the battle between Qin Sanchuan and Zhuang Qingxi would eventually happen.
In fact, in the past half a month, Lu Ping'an and others have tried to persuade Qin Sanchuan and Zhuang Qingxi to cancel the competition, so that they can step back and live in peace.
But whether it was Qin Sanchuan or Zhuang Qingxi, their attitudes towards this matter were extremely firm, mainly because they both had confidence in their own strength and believed that they could beat each other, and then let things develop to their own satisfaction.
As a result, no matter how Lu Pingan and others persuaded it, it was useless. Today, things have become like this.
Zhuang Qingxi stood up calmly and said, "Well, I'm ready too. I shouldn't need to say more about what we need to do after the outcome is decided, right?"
Qin Sanchuan said: "Everything is based on the conditions negotiated last time, and I will never break my promise."
Zhuang Qingxi said: "Compared to the end of the trial, you must not intentionally hurt people..."
Qin Sanchuan was a little impatient and said: "I know, I know, are they just those commonly used test rules, I will follow them."
Zhuang Qingxi said, "Then ask Elder Lu to be the referee, what do you think?"
Qin Sanchuan said: "No problem."
At this point, Lu Ping’an is not good to say anything to tell them not to fight, so he nodded helplessly, and said: "Well, I have never been a referee, so I hope you all show mercy to the opponents. I don’t want to see. Either of you is seriously injured."
Zhuang Qingxi said, "Of course."
Qin Sanchuan said: "Don't worry, I just want to win or lose, and then I'll fight for another breath. I don't have any deep hatred, and I won't be cruel to her."
Lu Pingan does not have any experience in this area, and may not be very good at judging the outcome in certain situations.
But in the monk's competition, one of the important roles of the referee is to be able to stop the competition in time when necessary to avoid casualties.
Among the few people in the field, only Lu Ping'an had such strength.
However, before the start of the competition, they still wandered around to see if there were any monsters. Otherwise, if a group of monsters suddenly attacked during the competition, it would bring trouble to them. Little trouble.
After everyone checked the surroundings, they didn't find the aura or trace of the monster beast.
Lu Ping'an said, "In that case, you two can start."
Then, Qin Sanchuan and Zhuang Qingxi stood opposite each other in a clearing.
Qin Sanchuan shook his whole body, and there was a vigorous aura of spiritual power in his body, gushing out.
Everyone can clearly perceive that Qin Sanchuan has indeed reached the first stage of Yuanyang Realm.
It took him only half a month to complete the breakthrough of this great realm, which was not easy.
Of course, because there is Lu Pingan, a monster with a faster cultivation speed, everyone is not too surprised by this matter.
On the other side, Zhuang Qingxi also exudes spiritual power.
Compared with Qin Sanchuan's surging surging, her aura seemed more peaceful, but more refined and refined.
To everyone's surprise, Zhuang Qingxi also broke through the realm, and was promoted from the original Yuanyang No.1 to Yuanyang No.2.
But after thinking about it, Zhuang Qingxi's talent is not surprising.
Then, Zhuang Qingxi called out a black long whip and said to Qin Sanchuan: "If you feel unfair, I can suppress the realm to Yuanyang First Chong and fight you."
Qin Sanchuan said, "No, this is good. Only by defeating you at this level of difference will I be able to prove my strength."
"Okay, then I'm not welcome, take the move!"
When the voice fell, Zhuang Qingxi changed her calm look and became serious. The whole person looked heroic and full of fighting spirit.
With a snap, Zhuang Qingxi flew out the long whip.
The spiritual power quickly condensed, as if it had stretched the long whip several times, and with a fierce power, it flew to Qin Sanchuan!
Qin Sanchuan squeezed both fists abruptly, his wrist armor burst out with dark golden light, and then his spiritual power surged and wrapped his arms.
The bullwhip offensive fell head-on, Qin Sanchuan did not dodge, but stood still, crossed his hands, and blocked upwards.
There was a crisp sound, like a whip hitting the metal, sparking a burst of golden light.
But Qin Sanchuan was not injured, and steadily blocked the move, and then he turned his wrist, opened his palm, and grabbed the whip.
Although this part is no longer a real long whip, but a strength condensed by spiritual power, Qin Sanchuan's grasp also has spiritual power. Once the two come into contact, Zhuang Qingxi will be affected accordingly.
But Zhuang Qingxi's reaction was swift, his jade hand shook, and the entire long whip squirmed like a long snake. The whip screamed, bringing out a wave of wind and waves like a sharp blade, and attacked Qin Sanchuan.
However, Qin Sanchuan's big hand still grabbed the long whip by grabbing!
Zhuang Qingxi was startled and wanted to dissipate that part of the spiritual power, but when her thoughts just started, Qin Sanchuan's vigorous power quickly extended along with her spiritual power.
Zhuang Qingxi had no choice but to forcibly cut off the connection between himself and that part of spiritual power, and violently swung the long whip, only to break Qin Sanchuan's power away.
But by doing so, she received a certain shock injury shortly after the battle began, causing her body to be slightly confused.
But Qin Sanchuan didn't give her time to breathe, and immediately smashed out the strength that had been accumulated on the other fist.
The golden fist power radiated a lot of light, and the power in it was even more violent and violent!
Zhuang Qingxi's eyes narrowed, but he didn't panic. Under the rapid swing of his arm, the long whip danced like a silver snake, attacking forward!
boom!
With a loud bang, it swayed between the courts, vigorously surging like waves, and large swaths of snowflakes were lifted from the ground, flying all over the sky.
"Hahaha...I usually watch you fight monsters fiercely, but if you really fight each other, it's nothing more than that."
After a while, Lu Pingan and the others heard Qin Sanchuan burst into laughter and said.
But Zhuang Qingxi, who was opposite him, had her eyebrows furrowed, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.
Obviously, the result of this first round is Qin Sanchuan slightly better.
