Chapter 40: Fight with the sky, fight with the earth
Hahaha. Wu Zhidao laughed heartily. He squinted his eyes at Gao Qiyun and said, "See, although my Dongmen Xuanxue Society is not as good as yours in Kyoto, everyone is strong-willed. You think this is a vegetable market where you can just pick up the best things and put them in the basket."
"Alas!" Gao Qiyun sighed and said, "Ni Ge, I don't plan to let you leave the Dongmen Metaphysics Society. You should know that both the Kyoto and the North and South Metaphysics Society actually belong to the same group. I just want you to develop in Kyoto, so that you will have more space."
"Haha, thank you very much. But I can't go to Kyoto. No matter how good the conditions are, it will definitely not suit me. Kyoto has always been based on the feet of the emperor. The dragon energy is soaring to the sky. It gathers the fortune of the world to bless itself. Only in this way can it be as easy as using one's fingers in the tent. And I, a person of metaphysics, originally fight with the sky and the earth, absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and seize the fortune of heaven and earth. It counteracts the fortune of Kyoto."
"That makes sense. It's a battle between heaven and earth, fighting against the heavens and the earth. Alas, I'm already quite old, but I still can't reach the realm of a master. It seems that I lack a pure heart and gain more worldly troubles. Hahahaha!"
Wu Zhidao said this with some feeling, followed by a burst of laughter.
"Shit luck! My Metaphysics Society will have another master." Gao Qiyun cursed with an envious smile.
"Congratulations, Brother Wu." I clasped my fists and congratulated him.
"Haha, I just have some insights. After the competition is over, I will retreat for a while to reach the master level. There is no rush now. I have to watch brother Ni Ge win the first place. It has been more than ten years, and it's time to let go of this frustration. Let's go to the ring."
Wu Zhidao waved his hand with some emotion and walked towards the back mountain.
"Brother Ni, do you know why old man Wu wants to wait until the competition is over before going into seclusion?" Gao Qiyun suddenly asked with a mysterious smile.
"It's still a long way to go for me to advance from a fourth-grade master to a fifth-grade master. How would I know all this? I think Brother Wu is probably worried about me." I said with a smile.
Gao Qiyun raised his beard and said with disdain: "I am a person of metaphysics. That advancement was not a matter of luck. If I could break through, Old Man Wu would not care about the competition! I waited for the competition to end just to eliminate my obsession."
Many people have arrived at the venue one after another.
Gao Qiyun took the Righteousness Stone from me and looked at me meaningfully: "Brother Ni, there is a faint purple aura on your forehead, which means you have broken through to the third level. However, there are still many young talents in my Metaphysics Society in this competition. Whether you can win the first place and completely dispel Old Man Wu's obsession depends on your performance."
Gao Qiyun left . My eyes became more determined. Gao Qiyun's words told me that many contestants were very accomplished in the use of magic. I wanted to keep the Qi Stone, so it seemed like I would have to go through a tough battle.
Before long, the venue was filled with people one after another.
Qian Yunfeng wiped the sweat off his face, trotted over, picked up a glass of water and gulped it down.
"Mr. Qian, why are you so anxious? Is there something wrong?" I asked puzzled.
"Huff, huff!" Qian Yunfeng panted for a few times before calming down and saying, "Something happened. Something that can be compared to the final competition of the Metaphysics Society. I finished my own work early today and ran over here. Luckily I made it in time. You know, ordinary people like me are not qualified to participate in such a gathering. This time, it is really thanks to the host of the Dongmen Metaphysics Society."
I smiled and said nothing. No matter how rich and powerful Qian Yunfeng is, he is just an ordinary person to the transcendent organization of the Metaphysics Society. If ordinary people see what is happening here, it will absolutely subvert their worldview.
In this era, although people are relatively tolerant of unknown things, if they spread, it would be considered as spreading superstition. Although the government slogan is freedom of belief, it cannot tolerate supernatural things. The elimination of the four evils and the four olds in the 1960s and the Cultural Revolution in the 1970s are all living examples.
"Ni Ge, I got some information about the opponents in this competition. Xiang Kuang from the Northeastern Metaphysics Society is said to have reached the peak of the third rank, and is only one step away from reaching the realm of the Mystic Master. He is the second best of the younger generation. He is good at commanding Huang Daxian. It can be said that he has the ability to leapfrog. The most terrifying one is Gao Qiyun's disciple, Liu Tiansheng, who is good at some kind of great power technique. In previous competitions, no one could survive a match under him. I don't know what he is good at. Ni Ge, I wonder how confident you are?"
Qian Yunfeng wiped the sweat off his face and looked at me with a smile and asked.
I glanced at Qian Yunfeng and asked, "How did Mr. Qian get this information? It seems Mr. Qian's power in the Metaphysics Society cannot be underestimated!"
To be honest, I am still a little afraid of Qian Yunfeng. He is an ordinary businessman, but he has connections in the government. He even has detailed information about the Metaphysics Society, which is aloof from the world. I am even more confused about this person's background. What is certain is that there is a huge network of power behind this person.
Qian Yunfeng said with a bit of embarrassment: "Brother Ni, you are joking. After all, you are also a consultant for my company. I know that Brother Ni has a lot of questions, but I really want to make friends with you. We are in a cooperative relationship, so of course I care about your affairs. Apart from anything else, if you get the first place, my Ted Company will be well-known throughout the country."
I smiled and said, "I'm not sure this time either. Everything depends on the fight on the ring. But I also want to thank Mr. Qian for his care."
As they were talking, Wu Zhidao, Gao Qiyun and Zhao Decang walked out.
Zhao Decang announced loudly, "The third event of the discussion meeting, the fight, will begin now. We still follow the old rules, all the contestants are invited to the stage. There is no time limit, and the last ten people left will advance to the second round of competition. "
"Brother, be careful. You have been in the limelight in the first two rounds. In the third round, some people will unite to deal with you. The reason why no one from the Dongmen Xuanxue Society could advance in the third round was largely due to their lack of strength."
I nodded and was about to stand up when I saw Duan Qirui leading four young men in their twenties walking towards me.
"Master Ni, these are the members of my Dongmen Metaphysical Society. Let them go up with you. It will be easier to have more people to look after you." Duan Qirui bowed to me.
"Then thank you all brothers for your help." I smiled and bowed to these people in return.
"Master Ni, my name is Jiao Tong, and I'm good at formations."
"My name is Qin Shuangyun, and I'm good at physiognomy."
"My name is Zhou Ge, and I'm good at Feng Shui layout."
"My name is Wang Lide. I have the least experience here, only the first level of metaphysics. Hehe, but I have practiced martial arts since I was a child. I can help Master Ni deal with the people around him."
Wang Lide looked honest and simple, and was tall and strong. His spiritual power was very weak. But his face was full of blood. There was no stagnation in his fists and feet. He was indeed a martial artist.
I finally understand why Dongmen Xuanxue always ranks last. None of these people are proficient in the mountain character formula. It's fine if they can't beat them in Feng Shui and physiognomy, but in the third round, they will go home with nothing!
Even so, this is an outstanding successor that Dongmen Xuanxue can show off.
I frowned and thought for a moment: "After we get on the stage, Jiao Tong will help me set up the formation. Zhou Ge will control the formation. Qin Shuangyun!"
I was silent for a moment. I really didn't know what a physiognomist could do on the stage. Qin Shuangyun was a little thin and quiet. Even in a PK, he would only be beaten. After careful consideration, I said, "Qin Shuangyun, you stay behind and remind us to pay attention to the direction of the attack."
I had no choice but to put Qin Shuangyun in the position of an alarm bird. "Wang Lide, you should act as a maneuver. If anyone comes close, throw them directly under the ring."
After everything was set up, I led four people to the ring. Looking around, the ring was more than 100 square meters in size. There were 400 to 500 contestants. Once we got on, it was crowded. Those who didn't have the skills would be pushed down immediately.
The middle is naturally the best position. However, it has already been occupied by the Northeastern Metaphysics Society. The Kyoto Metaphysics Society is not to be outdone. They set up their formation next to the Northeastern Metaphysics Society.
Looking at the members with unfriendly eyes on the stage, I shook my head and led my men to the northeast corner of the stage. I quickly set up a Nine Yin Soul Separation Formation with copper coins. Because of the improvement of my realm, my formation can be said to have slightly improved its level. If I meet Guan Hu again, it will never be as difficult as last time.
"Master Ni, are we okay?" Qin Shuangyun suddenly asked timidly while standing behind me .
I looked up at the four people's faces, all of them looked pale. Even Wang Lide looked a little scared.
"What are you afraid of? We are people of metaphysics, fighting with the heavens and the earth. How can we continue on this path without a determination? As long as we work hard, we will live up to our Tao aspirations."
Qin Shuangyun lowered his head after hearing what I said, biting his lips tightly. They are all young people, and they are not hot-blooded. It's just that they have been beaten by others all the time, so they can only hold back their anger. These four people have already suffered internal injuries.
"Master Ni, I, Wang Lide, am the knife in your hand. I will hit you wherever you point your finger. I can go down, but I won't let Master Ni go down."
Wang Lide's words made the other three people raise their heads and their eyes became determined.
I stretched out my hand: "Brothers, fight against the sky, fight against the earth, beat him!"
"Hahaha! Beat him up!" Even Qin Shuangyun followed me and shouted. For a moment, the morale of our five-member team was high.
The copper coin fell to the ground, and the peach wood sword was inserted into the gap of the blue brick. Jiao Tong simply stood in front of the peach wood sword and poured his spiritual power into it desperately, causing the Nine Yin Soul Separation Formation to spread with ripples.
Zhou Ge, on the other hand, took seven pieces of broken jade and arranged them into a seven-star Big Dipper with a painful look on his face.
