Chapter 3694 The Poison King Saint Lord Who Can Bend and Stretch
The emergence of the Void Sword Sect.
This immediately made the atmosphere in the room much more somber.
Especially on the Void Sword Sect's side, those few half-saints were all staring at Shen Changqing with a subtle, almost imperceptible gaze, as if they were plotting something.
If it were an ordinary Immortal Emperor being stared at like that, he would have been terrified long ago.
But Shen Changqing completely ignored this.
Such composure.
This made Li Chenyuan somewhat wary.
During this time, he was also secretly gathering information about Shen Changqing.
But a pity.
The other party seemed to appear out of thin air, and no useful information could be gleaned from within the chaotic sea.
Li Chenyuan could tell that the other party was definitely not a cultivator from the Chaotic Void Sea.
But the problem is...
Beyond the Chaotic Sky Sea lies a vast expanse of chaos, and countless other chaotic territories, much like the Chaotic Sky Sea itself.
at the same time.
It even exists in the Nine Heavens Celestial Realm.
The Nine Heavens Immortal Realm comprises 3,600 immortal states, a vast and boundless expanse.
One of these Immortal Continents alone is worth at least a hundred Chaotic Void Seas.
In this situation, searching for information about a single person is by no means easy.
Li Chenyuan didn't take a single Immortal Emperor seriously, but he had to be cautious about an Immortal Emperor who possessed the power to kill a Ninth Tribulation Half-Saint.
He is currently only an eighth-level half-saint, and his strength is three points weaker than that of the ancestor Li Huaizhen.
The latter had all perished at Shen Changqing's hands, so if Li Chenyuan were to face him, he would have no chance whatsoever.
but.
Before long, other forces arrived.
This is the one who came this time.
They are from the Holy Land of the Poison King.
The leading cultivator was Su Gu, the Holy Lord of the Poison King Holy Land. His face was sinister, and when he looked at Shen Changqing, the killing intent in his eyes was undisguised.
"So you are Shen Changqing, the Immortal Emperor who killed the ancestor of my Poison King Holy Land? Very well, I didn't expect you to have the audacity to appear before me!"
The moment the words left his mouth.
Immediately, a terrifying aura pressed down on Shen Changqing.
next interest.
Luo Tian took a step forward, directly blocking that aura outside.
The two auras clashed remotely, ultimately neutralizing each other.
Shen Changqing stared directly into Su Gu's cold eyes, his expression calm: "If you wish to avenge the Medicine King, then please make your move. However, I wonder how your strength compares to the Medicine King's, and whether you can withstand the sharpness of my sword!"
This sentence.
Su Gu laughed in fury: "Very well, very well, I haven't seen such an arrogant person as you for many years—"
However, before he could finish speaking, Shen Changqing moved his divine sense and a blood-red immortal sword appeared out of thin air. Immediately afterward, a terrifying and chilling sword intent spread out, causing the entire Crossing Tribulation Realm to tremble violently.
that moment.
Su Gu felt an unprecedented sense of threat welling up from the bottom of his heart, causing his expression to change instantly.
"Enough with the pleasantries. If you wish to fight, I will gladly oblige!"
Shen Changqing gripped the hilt of his sword, the tip pointing at Su Gu, clearly intending to fight him.
The latter's expression shifted, but in the end he didn't actually make a move. He just snorted coldly and flicked his sleeve.
"A mere Immortal Emperor? If I were to attack you, wouldn't I only invite ridicule? Very well, I'll let you live a few more days. When the time comes, my Poison King Holy Land will have an Immortal Emperor who can slay you!"
Upon hearing this, many semi-saints looked at Su Gu with strange expressions, but the latter had already returned to normal and did not care about these gazes at all.
Li Chenyuan smiled faintly: "Lord Su, it's been a while since we last met, and your facial expressions have improved quite a bit!"
"Likewise, Sect Leader Li is no less impressive."
Su Gu replied in a sarcastic tone.
How could he not know that Li Chenyuan was trying to provoke him into making a move?
But Su Gu knew very well that even if he took action, he probably wouldn't stand a chance against that kind of power that could kill a Ninth Tribulation Half-Saint.
To put oneself in danger for the sake of momentary verbal sparring is, in his view, utterly foolish.
Having cultivated to the level of Su Gu, one naturally understands the importance of making choices.
Face is a thing.
It's useful when needed.
It's useless when you don't need it.
Compared to one's own life, saving face is utterly insignificant.
Seeing Su Gu back down, Shen Changqing also put away the Soul-Destroying Sword and stopped trying to provoke her with words.
after all.
He could also tell that Su Gu was not as impulsive as he appeared. Even if he provoked him with his words, Su Gu would not fall for it.
not to mention--
Shen Changqing glanced in the direction of the Void Sword Sect.
Even if I were to kill Su Gu, it would only benefit someone else.
Whether he kills an eighth-tribulation half-saint or a ninth-tribulation half-saint, without using other means to replenish his immortal power, he only has the strength for one strike.
At this time, Shen Changqing naturally wouldn't let anyone see through his disguise.
the other side.
Seeing that Su Gu wasn't fooled, Li Chenyuan simply smiled and said nothing more.
The time that follows.
The cultivators from all three factions remained silent, and the scene returned to quiet.
Time passes little by little.
Lingxi Sword Sect!
The Forgetful Immortal Sect!
And finally, the Li Huo Dao Sect.
The three groups arrived one after another.
Like other forces, each of the three sects sent five cultivators.
and.
All the cultivators were at the Half-Saint Realm.
Obviously, everyone knows that without the cultivation of a half-saint, one is not even qualified to participate in this battle. Inviting just any Immortal Emperor would be no different from admitting defeat.
Although it is not easy for one's own forces to gather five half-saints, there are many rogue half-saints in the Chaotic Sky Sea. As long as one pays some price to invite these rogue half-saints to come forward, it is not a difficult task.
In fact.
If the Xuanji Immortal Sect hadn't managed to get Shen Changqing, they would most likely have done the same thing as the other sects.
but--
In the eyes of the half-saints of the Xuanji Immortal Sect, Shen Changqing was not comparable to an ordinary Immortal Emperor; his strength could not be measured by his realm.
In particular, what Venerable Qingyao said about the other party defeating the Demon King of the Eastern Abyss Region is enough to explain a lot.
Moreover.
Shen Changqing also possesses a powerful treasure.
If such a trump card were used, not to mention ordinary semi-saints, even top-tier semi-saints would suffer bloodshed.
Regardless, as the only Immortal Emperor present, coupled with Shen Changqing's reputation in the Chaotic Void Sea, he naturally attracted the attention of many Half-Saints.
Under the watchful eyes of these semi-saints, Shen Changqing remained calm throughout.
This composed demeanor earned him the respect of many semi-saints.
"Alright, now that we're all here, let's set a rule and see how best to divide up that Immortal Mine of Longevity!"
The speaker was Li Chenyuan, who broke the silence and got straight to the point.
As the other party finished speaking, Venerable Luo Tian calmly said, "The rules have already been set, so let's follow the original agreement."
Each of our six forces will send five cultivators, and each force will set a list of those who will participate in the battle in that order.
The next battle will proceed in this order—"
During the discussions among all parties.
Information about this battle also surfaced in Shen Changqing's mind.
Just as Venerable Luo Tian said.
The rules for this battle had actually been set long ago.
The vast Immortal Mine of Longevity has a total of sixty shares, with each sect possessing thirty shares.
Before engaging in the competition, each faction first determines its order of attack and then announces it together.
There are a total of five rounds of battles, with six players in each round.
You get a share for every win!
Every loss means losing a share!
In other words.
If one person is strong enough, theoretically they could sweep away five people and obtain five shares.
After this battle, the resources of the Longevity Immortal Mine will be allocated based on the final share.
Normally speaking.
If a sect cultivator loses all five battles, he will lose a total of twenty-five shares, leaving only five shares as a safety net.
In this way.
Even if these sects and forces are completely defeated, they will not completely lose the benefits of the Longevity Immortal Mine.
same.
If all five players are at their peak in all five battles, they can obtain a total of fifty-five shares, including their original share.
This approach is also to prevent the Longevity Mine from falling entirely into the hands of a single power, thus creating a situation where one party dominates.
Furthermore...
If this were to happen, other forces would certainly not be willing to accept it.
Until that point.
All parties are still determined to break off relations.
The reason why the six major forces established rules for distributing the Longevity Immortal Mine was that they did not want to fight to the death.
If the outcome is ultimately mutually destructive, then such rules are meaningless.
But actually.
The possibility of all five players losing all five matches is extremely slim.
For the six major powers, the most important thing right now is to decide on the order of their attacks in order to ensure that they can capture as much of the market share as possible.
While everyone else was pondering their own plans, Shen Changqing was also quietly observing his other rivals.
His strength is at most at the level of a second-stage half-saint. If he were to use his trump cards, he could fight against a third- or fourth-stage half-saint. As for truly going all out, even a ninth-stage half-saint would have to shed blood.
However, the latter approach would also deplete his own immortal power, leading to a significant drop in his strength.
"We only need to win three out of five battles. If we only win two, then this battle is meaningless!"
Shen Changqing pondered to himself.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Xuanji Immortal Sect has thirty shares; it has little to do with him.
He needs to win three battles to secure his share.
otherwise.
If there are only two wins, Xuanji Immortal Sect will have to pay out a share, and I will lose the opportunity to share this immortal mine.
To put it another way...
Even if Shen Changqing wins three rounds and gets a share, he can only get 70% of the resources allocated to him, while the remaining 30% will belong to the Xuanji Immortal Sect.
In the blink of an eye, a multitude of thoughts flashed through Shen Changqing's mind.
A minimum of three wins guaranteed!
Four wins would be ideal!
As for five wins—
Shen Changqing glanced at the five forces of half-saints and shook his head inwardly.
With my current strength, the probability of winning five games is very low.
unless.
All his opponents are the weakest half-saints among the five factions, so with his trump cards, he might have a chance of winning all five.
But I'll say it again.
The probability of this is too low.
In Shen Changqing's view, this was unrealistic.
