Even though he knew that the two of them were on opposite sides, he still felt a trace of intolerance in his heart, suppressing his irritability and telling the other person to retreat.

"How can a person's life be everything he wants, but I want to live up to my heart, no matter whether things are right or wrong... there is no need to regret, love is not more important than gains and losses... there is no need to be disappointed,

Living a good life is wonderful, living a bad life is an experience. As long as you work hard for a few decades, no matter when you leave, you will not feel regret or regret!"

At this moment, the old man showed a slightly aged look of kindness, and the slightly upward curve of the corners of his mouth made him appear to be extremely tall and radiant, giving him the impression of an immortal.

These philosophies of life were explained so directly that Zhang Lingyun's eyes were confused, as if he had been inspired by something, and he didn't want to hurt this old man in his heart.

"Idiot... don't be fooled by others!"

Feng Yu Wanjiu, who had been entangled by the three ninja clones, saw that the aura around the white-haired old man was very strange, and Zhang Lingyun looked stupid.

The reaction of everyone when the sand cat cast the spell flashed in his mind. He immediately waved his hand and released a ray of spiritual power, condensing a ball of water and hitting Zhang Lingyun.

"Ah...! You actually used psychedelic magic!?"

Zhang Lingyun woke up instantly after his clothes got wet. He looked at the old man approaching him and struck at him with a sharp knife in his hand.

Immediately realizing that he had tricked the other party silently, Zhang Lingyun subconsciously released his spiritual energy and poured it into his calves, stepped on the ground and jumped back.

"Alas! Why bother struggling? Why not just die peacefully!?"

Seeing Zhang Lingyun regaining consciousness, the old man sighed helplessly, and the energy around him overflowed crazily. He held the knife in his back and leaned forward to attack Zhang Lingyun.

"You are still alive at such an old age. I really don't dare to disrespect my ancestors!"

Zhang Lingyun, who didn't have any weapons at hand, twisted his fingers lightly and took out the black iron short blade from the storage ring. His eyes swept across the nine-tailed sky fox less than ten meters away, and he rushed towards the white-haired old man bravely.

"boom......!"

The two sharp blades containing majestic power collided with each other, sparks scattered in all directions, and the crisp impact sound spread.

Zhang Lingyun, who had exerted nearly 70% of his power, was directly frightened by the powerful force released by the old man. He took several steps back before completely removing it.

Compared with Zhang Lingyun's obvious weakness, the old man seemed calm and steady, and his figure only took a step back and stabilized.

"Children are very good, but it's a pity that I'm afraid it won't be so easy to pass the test if I meet a martial arts idiot like me!"

There was an obvious playful look in the old man's eyes, and he regarded the young man as his prey in his heart. No matter how hard he struggled, he would never be able to escape from his hands.

"No matter how powerful you are, you can't escape the sadness of life coming to an end, and my future... is limitless!"

Zhang Lingyun's face became more and more solemn, and a disdainful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth unconsciously.

Normally, Zhang Lingyun would never say such irritating words, but in this situation, the old man's obviously despicable delaying time really makes people resentful.

Zhang Lingyun couldn't help but clenched the short blade in his hand, the majestic spiritual power all over his body burst out wildly, and the short blade in his hand simultaneously burst out with a dazzling halo.

"Shua, shua...!"

Zhang Lingyun suddenly swung his short blade into the void, and the surging spiritual power turned into a blade of light, which was released one after another towards the old man.

Having his weak ribs pulled out and constantly rubbed against the ground made the old man feel that he had lost all face. When he discovered the oncoming attack, he did not dodge and instead waved the short knife in his hand to attack him head-on.

"Bang, bang bang...!"

The ferocious light blade contained fluctuations of pure spiritual power. The moment it collided with the dagger, two completely different energies erupted in waves of terrifying shock waves.

The old man, who originally only wanted to prove his strength, retreated continuously under the fierce attacks of the light blades. Finally, he was overwhelmed and began to move his body to dodge the light blade attacks.

"good chance!"

Seeing a gap in defense, Zhang Lingyun stopped his attacking movements, waved his hand and drew a magic talisman in the void to attach to himself, charged up his feet and stepped on the ground, charging towards the nine-tailed fox.

"Where are you going? Do you think I'm just a show off!?"

The old man, who was forced to retreat continuously, was always paying attention to Zhang Lingyun's every move, waiting to notice changes in the energy around him.

The old man immediately switched from defense to offense, and the majestic energy around him burst out wildly. He stepped on the ground and slashed into the void with the short knife in his hand.

The fierce energy turned into condensed sword light, forming an energy shield around the old man, successfully blocking the light blade attack inspired by Zhang Lingyun.

The old man who finally got a breather leaned forward and ran towards Zhang Lingyun at high speed to stop his next dangerous behavior.

"Shua, shua...!"

Zhang Lingyun, who had already arrived at the side of the nine-tailed sky fox, was about to launch an attack to kill the monster and rescue his nephew Zhang Lingyu, but he didn't want to be attacked by several strange attacks in vain.

Zhang Lingyun, who was forced to defend, immediately activated the amulet on his chest. In the blink of an eye, a translucent protective barrier appeared containing pure spiritual power fluctuations.

"Ka, ka...!"

One after another, the surging sword light hit the protective barrier heavily. The ferocious impact caused Zhang Lingyun to retreat continuously, and subtle cracks appeared in the protective barrier.

The old man was approaching quietly, with a look of pride on his face. He suddenly waved the short knife in his hand, and Mou Zu released the attack with all his strength, slashing towards the cracked protective barrier.

"Click, click...!"

A sound as clear and crisp as glass breaking sounded, and the protective barrier protecting Zhang Lingyun was finally overwhelmed and shattered, gradually dissipating between heaven and earth.

"Children, be prepared to go to heaven!"

The old man who discovered this opportunity shouted out his farewell words with great excitement. At the same time, he released the energy in his body to strengthen the attack of the short sword in his hand, and launched a far more ferocious attack than before.

Approaching Zhang Lingyun, the old man slightly bent his knees and jumped up. Using all the strength from his waist to his arms, he swung the short knife in his hand and stabbed towards the young man's waist and abdomen.

"Death is like a lamp going out. The great years of this younger generation have just begun. I don't want to waste it. I'll leave this good opportunity to you!"

Zhang Lingyun said something mocking the old man's age, and quickly retreated to distance himself from the old man. At the same time, he waved his arms and held the short blade tightly at his side.

"Bang, sizzle...!"

Weapons with different offensive and defensive skills collided with each other and moved in completely different directions, causing sporadic sparks to fly in all directions.

When the two of them rushed forward and passed side by side, the slightly chaotic scene subsided, but this time the old man, who had significantly increased his energy output, did not show an overwhelming advantage.

"Ping Pong...,"

The unwilling old man stepped on the ground to steady his body, then swung the short knife in his hand towards Zhang Lingyun again, stabbing him hard.

Zhang Lingyun, who was entangled by the old man, glanced at the nine-tailed sky fox that was very close at hand, and the anger in his heart became more and more intense.

"Bang, bang bang...!"

He once again strengthened his spiritual power and released it, and struck back head-on with quick movements. For a moment, the swords of light were criss-crossing and the soldiers were facing each other, one after another.

The sound of metal clashing one after another came and went.

The two people went back and forth, attacking and defending each other. Although the old man relied on his advantages in age and swordsmanship, he successfully suppressed Zhang Lingyun's offensive.

But Zhang Lingyun also showed the unyielding will of a young hero, becoming more courageous with every setback, which made the old man's desire to end the battle as soon as possible be postponed indefinitely.

...

"Hmph! This and the national team are too rubbish! A little Taoist priest can control the field!"

"This little Taoist's true cultivation is much more than what he shows. Looking at his incarnation's skills, they are much stronger than his original body!"

"Ten people have entered the battle, and there is still one who is as solid as a rock so far. I'm afraid that the national team still has no big move to make!"

Faced with the extremely exciting and fierce fighting scenes in the venue, the envoys from various countries in the "Siyongzhai" raised their wine glasses and started drinking, and the voices discussing the future development of the war situation became more intense.

"They say no one will care, but you still insist on coming here to humiliate yourself! Alas...!"

Fifth Elder Zhang Shanyi glanced at the row of imperial guards behind him, and complained in a low voice with great dissatisfaction. When he looked at the older brother's back on the stairs, which looked slightly weathered, he sighed helplessly.

"It has been a stick of incense (five minutes) since Ling Yu was swallowed. If he is not rescued, he may have no way out!"

With tears in his eyes, Zhang Shanxing, the headmaster of the 'Zhengyi Sect', walked slowly downstairs from the top hall with heavy steps. When he talked about the sad part, he couldn't help but hold the arm of his second junior brother Zhang Shanyuan tightly.

"Since you are participating in this life-threatening competition, you must be prepared to die at any time. During the entire competition, can you see any envoys from foreign countries who violate this rule!?"

The second elder, Zhang Shanyuan, also disagreed with the headmaster's intercession with Jiadi, but due to the affection between fellow disciples, he still accompanied him.

However, as soon as he explained his purpose, he was stopped at the stairs by the head chamberlain. He didn't even see Jiadi's face, and was even kicked out with a scolding.

"I, I...sigh!"

The junior fellow apprentices were insulted by a eunuch, and Zhang Shanxing, who was already in the wrong, could not utter a single word of rebuttal for a long time despite his hoarse voice.

...

Feng Yu Wanjiu relied on her thousands of years of fighting skills to dodge the attacks of the two ninja clones, then leaned back and pretended to fall.

When the ninja clone was eager to attack, Feng Yu Wanjiu jumped up angrily with one hand on the ground and slashed at the ninja clone's neck with his sword.

"Wow...!"

As the head that looked like Kurano Eno was shot away, the entire ninja clone disintegrated without a trace of blood, like a sand sculpture that had lost its support, leaving a piece of gravel and fine sand on the ground.

Before Fengyu Wanjiu could feel happy that he had solved another trouble, he was frightened by the unexpected scene in front of him and was dumbfounded.

The fine sand and gravel left behind by the ninja clone's collapse just now seemed to be controlled by some unknown force, rising up into the air like a fountain.

In the blink of an eye, the ninja clone whose head had been chopped off condensed back into the appearance of Kurano Eno. Except for the slight shrinkage in height, there was no difference at all.

"well......!"

Not far away, in Jiura Jiangye, seeing Zhang Lingyun's clone killing two of his own clones in just half a stick of incense, the contempt in his heart disappeared.

When I looked at the incarnation similar to Zhang Lingyun, I already treated him as a living person who could think normally, and began to re-evaluate and analyze this avatar's attack methods.

"Huh......?"

Feng Yu Wanjiu, who had never seen such a clone before, was so surprised that he couldn't help but exclaimed. He carefully recalled the process of destroying the ninja clone in the first place, and then a flash of light flashed in his eyes.

Feng Yu Wanjiu suddenly released a ray of spiritual power, tightened the long sword in his hand, and drove the surrounding spiritual power to spin around the spiritual stone sword.
