I am cultivating immortality in the chaotic world.

Chapter 323 "Cheating? I never cheat."

"Do not blame you."

At this time, Fei Long had already left the small dark room. Standing on the ring, he looked at the middle-aged man on the stage who looked unwilling and puzzled. He coughed lightly and explained, "We are half-brothers, and we have been in tune with each other since childhood."

"I see."

The middle-aged man nodded with a grim expression. No wonder, no matter what movements this Feilong made, Chen Yu could guess that they were half-brothers. If that was the case, it could be explained.

There is really no way around this.

Who matched them to this team? These two people were born to be prepared for this level. There is really nothing they can do about it. He is just unlucky.

Then he took a deep breath, his mood gradually recovered, and he prepared to go to the audience seats to see the performance of other teams.

Although they were eliminated at this level.

But it's not that he missed the Ascension Meeting directly, he just missed the remaining levels before the "Masked Dinner". He just missed some possible opportunities. He still has a chance to fight for the real big opportunities. Otherwise, he would be eliminated at the beginning and miss the Ascension Meeting directly. He would really have a mental breakdown.

Soon, a hoarse and emotionless voice rang in everyone's ears.
-
"The giant team won the first round, and all members of the small team received a random blue jade slip."

"Chen Lu, who performed well, will receive an additional random blue jade slip."
-
"The first level has ended. The eliminated teams will go to the audience seats to watch the game."

"The team that successfully passed the level will proceed to the second level. The second level will still be randomly matched."
-
Then, the "Go Forward" team disappeared without a trace. At this time, Badan walked onto the stage and grinned at Chen Lu: "Senior, you are amazing. You won the first level easily. You got off to a good start."

The reward for the first level is actually average, just a blue entry.

After all, it's just an entertainment level before the masked dinner begins, so the difficulty level can't be too high. The main thing is that the meaning of a good start is quite good.

As for the outstanding performer, Chen Lu, there is naturally nothing to say, this is all thanks to the seniors.

"Ah."

Chen Lu chuckled and said nothing, just looked at the other team that was teleported to the bottom of the arena. The second level began, and the second level was still here.

The captain of the "Go Forward" team, the middle-aged man, who was teleported to the audience seats, immediately looked at the "Giant Team"'s viewing screen and did not even look at the other teams.

After all, he was eliminated by this huge team.

He would feel much better if he could see this huge team being eliminated in the second round.

But only then did he suddenly react.

What the hell is half-father and half-mother?

Moreover, even if the two of them had the same intention, why could Chen Yu also see the gestures of his own team members? Could it be that you and his team members also had the same intention?
In confusion, the second level of the competition began.

Second pass.

The content is extremely simple.

As the scenery around the arena gradually changed, the seats gradually disappeared and turned into a huge bluestone square with two corridors composed of thick flames on the bluestone square.

Each corridor is a hundred feet long.

The content of the competition is very simple.

Each team sends out five representatives, and the time taken by each team representative to pass through the corridor of flames is recorded. The team with the shortest time wins.

"This is."

Badan felt the heat brought by the blazing flames, his expression changed slightly, and a trace of shock flashed in his eyes: "Is this... Samadhi True Fire? This is an extremely special kind of flame, born between heaven and earth, and it is almost impossible to subdue. In the past, it was difficult to see even one, but today I can see so many here."

"This kind of flame burns regardless of your cultivation level. It doesn't matter whether you are at the peak of the Celestial Immortal level or at the Qi Refining level, it will be the same for this flame."

"Ignoring spiritual energy and any means of defense will not cause any skin injuries, but will only cause unbearable extreme pain."

"People who die in this kind of fire usually die in pain."

"No matter what your level of cultivation is, the pain you feel is the same."

"Moreover, you cannot use spiritual energy and entries in the corridor. In other words, to pass through this corridor composed of Samadhi True Fire, your cultivation level is not considered at all. The only thing that matters is your tolerance for pain."

"A hundred feet is not actually that long. It is not difficult to pass through this corridor, but it will be painful."

"but--"

Badan suddenly grinned: "Barbarians are born to cultivate their physical body. They may be afraid of many things, but pain is definitely not one of them. This level can be easily passed!"

There are very few physical cultivators who are afraid of pain. It's not that it's innate, but all of the physical cultivators' means of attack are to charge forward against the enemy's spells. In this case, anyone who has a low tolerance for pain would have changed to a new cultivation long ago.

"is it?"

at this time--

In the bluestone square, a group of people in black robes were slowly walking towards them. The leader of the group, a man in a black robe, had a faint smile on his face: "You barbarians are not afraid of pain, so are we afraid of pain?"

"You are"

Badan looked at the group of people in front of him, frowning slightly: "Is it the Gu Sect?"

"Chief Ba has good eyesight. I have heard of it for a long time. Today is our first meeting. Please take care of me in the future."

The man who was the leader of the Gu Clan spoke quite politely, but the confidence expressed in his words was almost overflowing.

Nothing more was said.

The man then took the lead and walked into a long corridor of flames. There was no sign of burns on his clothes in the flames, and his face showed no emotion, as if he did not feel any pain.

One could only vaguely judge from the slight trembling of his body when he landed that this man must be enduring unbearable pain at this moment.

After a hundred breaths.

The man successfully passed through this corridor of fire.

Then the four men in black robes who followed this man also walked into the corridor of flames one after another. This time, the four men obviously had a lower tolerance for pain, and their faces were a little distorted, but even so, they endured the pain and passed through the corridor of flames quickly.

It took a total of five hundred and thirty-seven breaths!
After all five representatives of the Gu Men team had passed the level, the man looked at Badan with a smile on his face: "In terms of the degree of endurance of pain, the Gu Men has never met an opponent."

"."

Badan looked slightly unhappy and didn't speak. This was indeed the strength of their barbarian tribe, but for the "Gu Clan", this aspect was even more of a strength.

Gu Men is a sect of Gu practitioners, which is a very small faction that is not even included in the nine major categories. It is often classified as evil or demonic.

And the entries about Gu cultivation are quite rare.

Choosing an extremely niche faction means, first of all, that it is extremely difficult for you to obtain the entries of this faction, but on the other hand, unrivaled geniuses often emerge from niche factions.

The principle is simple too.

For a niche faction, such as the "Gu Xiu", there is only one sect in the entire Tidal Immortal Realm. So when a person suddenly appears in the entire Tidal Immortal Realm and obtains the top entry of "Gu Xiu" when breaking through the Qi Refining, he will definitely be trained with all his strength by the "Gu Sect".

On the contrary, if other factions had geniuses, some of them were mediocre and it was impossible for them to be vigorously cultivated by the entire faction.

The unique method of Gu practitioners is to raise Gu in their own bodies. Those with high cultivation level have dozens of Gu worms in their bodies, gnawing at their bodies day and night. The pain is unimaginable.

Most importantly, this pain is experienced every moment.

Because of this, Gu cultivators are also regarded as cultivators with the lowest happiness index.

Similarly, for Gu cultivators, pain is already commonplace and they have become accustomed to it. If they want to compete with Gu cultivators in this regard, it is basically impossible.

Even though the chances of winning were a little slim, Badan didn't say much. He just snorted coldly and rolled up his sleeves to prepare to go into battle himself.

"no need."

at this time--

Chen Yu raised his hand to stop Badan, waved his hand and said softly: "No need to be so troublesome, let my people go."

Afterwards, a disciple of Chaotian Sect walked out with an expressionless face, and then strode into the flame corridor. The moment he stepped in, three big words "Immortal in the Furnace" suddenly appeared above his head. A golden light enveloped the disciple of Chaotian Sect and protected him from the harm of the Samadhi True Fire.

There was also a panel wrapped in clouds and mist that appeared above the heads of the Chaotian Sect disciples.
-
"Immortal in the Furnace": Can ignore the burning caused by the Samadhi True Fire.
-
When the ability of a special identity is used, the special identity will be exposed.

"Is this a special identity?"

Badan was slightly stunned, and then he grinned: "Okay, okay, with such a furnace fairy, the total clearance time will definitely be greatly shortened."

"Humph."

The leader of the Gu Clan standing nearby snorted coldly: "Among all the special identities of the Furnace Immortal, there are only five in total. You are lucky to have been randomly assigned such a special identity."

He was a little angry when he talked about it. There were 45 special identities in total, but he didn't get any of them randomly. What kind of crappy luck was that?

Did you forget to check the almanac before going out?

"But even if there is a furnace immortal, it is meaningless. The time saved by a furnace immortal is not enough to make up for the gap between us."

soon--

This disciple of Chaotian Sect passed the level, which took him seventy-eight breaths.

Then, under the gaze of Badan and the leading man of the Gu Clan, another Chaotian Sect disciple stood up, clasped his fists and bowed to Chen Lu in public, then stepped into the corridor again. He was actually another Immortal in the Furnace.

"The second Immortal in the Furnace?"

Badan was slightly stunned, and murmured: "The people under the senior are very lucky."

Followed by.

The third immortal in the furnace!

The fourth immortal in the furnace!

This is the end.

In fact, defeat was already decided. The time used by the four Immortals in the Furnace was much less than the time used by the five people from the Gu Clan. Victory was already decided.

"How is this possible!"

The leader of the Gu Clan was having a hard time accepting this reality. He shouted excitedly, "There are only five people with this special identity of Furnace Immortal. How come you have four?"

"Why!!!"

"How is this possible? Who would believe me if I said there was nothing fishy going on?"

Chen Lu, who was standing aside, coughed lightly and ignored everyone. He just walked on the corridor of flames by himself, activated his special identity of "The Immortal in the Furnace", and stepped into the corridor composed of Samadhi True Fire.

Although time is already far ahead at this time.

But this level can only be completed after the fifth person comes on the field.

The most important thing is that it is obvious that the special identity of "Immortal in the Furnace" is only useful in this level. If you don't use it now, you will never have the chance to use it in the future. These special identities will not last throughout the Ascension Meeting, but will only end at the "Masked Dinner", which is the big event on the first day.

And when Chen Lu also showed his identity as the Immortal in the Furnace.

The result is naturally self-evident.

soon--

A hoarse and emotionless voice echoed in everyone's ears.
-
"The Giant Team won the second round, and all members of the team received a random purple jade slip."

"Chen Lu, who performed well, will receive an additional jade slip with a random purple entry."
-
At this time, the leader of the Gu Clan was staring at Chen Yu with an uncertain expression. He had a lot to say in his heart, but after moving his lips for a long time, he didn't say a word. It was meaningless to say anything at this time.

But he was sure of one thing.

Although he didn't know how Chen Lu cheated, he knew that Chen Lu must have cheated.

Otherwise it would be impossible that there are only five people with this special identity of "Furnace Immortal", and it turns out that all five of them are in Chen Lu's team.

Then, another voice was heard, which meant that the second level was over.
-
"The second level has ended. The eliminated teams will go to the audience seats to watch the game."

"The team that successfully passed the level will proceed to the third level. The third level will still be randomly matched."
-
"Ex-senior."

Badain, standing in the bluestone square, looked at Chen Lu with a confused look on his face and murmured, "Are the special identities randomly assigned to your subordinates all furnace immortals?" Before starting the first level.

He was still complaining about the 45 special identities, but they didn't even get one randomly. Unexpectedly, the seniors got five special identities randomly, and what's more, coincidentally, these five special identities were all "Immortals in the Furnace". This was too coincidental.

"hold head high."

Chen Lu coughed lightly and didn't explain much. This was just the beginning and there was no way to explain what happened next.

At this time, Badan was still a little confused, because the person with outstanding performance in the second level was a senior again. Although he also hoped that it was a senior, how to say it, the senior walked in the corridor of fire.

Not the least time consuming.

The one who took the least time should be the disciple of Chaotian Sect who ran the fastest.

In this case, shouldn't the person with outstanding performance be the disciple of Chaotian Sect?

However, he shook his head and did not think much about it. Perhaps it was because although the senior did not take the shortest time, he was the most calm, so he was the one with outstanding performance?
In a trance.

The third level begins.

As the scenery on the bluestone square gradually began to change, the third level officially began!

"."

The captain of the "Go Forward" team, who was sitting in the audience, was looking expressionlessly at Chen Lu's viewing screen. Well, Chen Lu and his team had finally passed the second level successfully. It was not that difficult. They only needed to show the special identities of the five "Immortals in the Furnace" to pass it successfully.

Good.

There are only five people with this special identity of Furnace Immortal, and Chen Lu has five of them.

If in the first level he just felt that Chen Lu was cheating but was not sure, then now, he was almost 100% sure that Chen Lu was definitely cheating.

He noticed that the Gu Clan group had already come to the audience seats and were also looking at Chen Lu's side of the viewing screen. It was obvious that this group of people was in the same mood as him at this moment. After all, no one could stand being eliminated in this way in the field they were best at.

It is indeed painful.

The third level.

The content was relatively simple. The two corridors made of flames on the bluestone square had gradually dissipated, and two arenas appeared.

Two arenas made of black stone were quietly placed on the empty bluestone square.

At this time, another team has been teleported here.

The content of this level is——

Each team sends out five representatives to fight against five puppets respectively. The team that defeats the puppets in the shortest time wins.

It is worth mentioning that.

These puppets have no offensive capabilities at all, but have strong defensive capabilities. They can only defend, not attack.

The puppet's ability to perform well depends on the challenger who comes on stage.

"Oh?"

Badan looked at the content of this level, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "The advantage is mine!"

They are physical cultivators who are good at attacking, and with the help of their seniors whose combat power far exceeds their own, they can pass this level easily!
but
When he saw the group of people coming towards them, his expression turned grim again: "It seems the advantage is gone."

All the members of this team were wearing uniform robes, and on the robes was embroidered a "卍" symbol, which was the mark of the "Wan Kui Sect", a sect where all the members were puppet cultivators. It was considered one of the most powerful forces in the entire Tidal Immortal Realm!

Puppet Cultivation, a sect that is even more niche than Gu Cultivation.

From the smile on the other person's face, it can be seen that the other person is quite happy at this moment and is obviously full of confidence.

Also.

No one knows how to deal with puppets better than a puppet cultivator.

"Chief Ba."

The leader of the Wan Kui Sect clasped his hands together, looked at Badan and said with a smile: "Excuse me for showing off my ugliness!"

Having said that——

He jumped onto the stage first and faced the puppet with extremely strong defense. He used all his skills and smashed the puppet in just seventeen breaths.

Subsequently.

The other four representatives of Wanguimen also jumped onto the arena belonging to their own teams one by one and easily smashed the puppets, which took a total of 109 breaths.

Victory seemed certain.

After taking a deep breath, Badan looked at Chen Yu with a smile and said, "It's okay, senior. These levels are just appetizers before the "Masked Dinner". The rewards are not too good, and it's not a big opportunity. It's okay even if I lose."

"It's really tiring to keep going through the levels, so we can just go to the audience seats to rest for a while and recharge our batteries for the big opportunity in the evening."

They are bound to fail at this level.

no way.

It was indeed bad luck. If they had changed teams, they would have had a chance to try. But when they met Wanguimen, there was really no way they could even think of trying.

"will not."

Chen Yu shook his head slightly: "It's not too tiring. Sitting in the audience is pretty boring."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at the group of Chaotian Sect disciples behind him and waved his hand.

Immediately——

Then a disciple of Chaotian Sect walked up with an expressionless face, strode onto the stage, took out a peach from his arms, and threw it at the puppet on the stage. The puppet with extremely strong defense was instantly reduced to ashes when it came into contact with the peach.

Immediately afterwards, two large characters appeared above the head of this Chaotian Sect disciple.

"Peach Fairy"!
And a panel wrapped in clouds and mist appeared behind it.
-
"Peach Fairy": You will have an extra peach, which can cause high damage to puppets. (Limited to 5 people.) -
"Special identity?"

Badan looked at the scene in front of him, slightly stunned, a trace of disbelief flashed across his eyes, and then he suddenly thought of something, turned his head to look at the indifferent expression on Chen Yu's face, and said with a trembling voice: "Senior, this... this can't be five more, right?"

"There's no such thing as giving five by five for this thing, right?"

"Hmm?" At this time, the leader of the Wan Kui Sect who was standing nearby frowned slightly, but soon relaxed: "You are very lucky. Not only did you randomly get a special identity, but you also happened to randomly get a special identity that can be used in this level."

"We were unlucky. We didn't get any special identities randomly."

"But there is only one Peach Fairy, and she cannot influence the overall situation, unless you have four more Peach Fairies."

Immediately afterwards——

The second peach fairy appears.

The third.

the fourth.

When the fifth Peach Fairy threw the peaches in her hand onto the stage, everyone stood there expressionlessly, staring at the scene for a long time without saying a word.

After a while.

The leader of Wanguimen suddenly reacted. They... they seemed to have been eliminated?

Being eliminated in the field that he is best at? Being eliminated by five "peach fairies"? Why?

There are only five "Peach Fairy" special identities in total, how come you have five! This must be cheating, it would be a miracle if this wasn't cheating? ! !
And at this time——

That familiar and hoarse voice sounded again.
-
"The Giant Team won the third round, and the five representatives of the Giant Team each received 50 mid-grade spirit stones."

"Chen Yu, who performs well, will receive an additional 50 mid-grade spirit stones."
-
After the voice fell, the "Wanguimen" group was also teleported to the audience seats. Before the "Masked Dinner" began, they were no longer qualified to continue to challenge the level.

"senior."

Although he won, Badan was stunned. He tilted his head to look at Chen Yu and murmured, "Senior, we cheated so openly, we won't be punished by heaven, right?"

At this point, not to mention the opponent, even he could be 100% sure that the senior must have cheated.

I just don't know what cheating methods were used.

After all, five "Furnace Immortals" and five "Peach Immortals", any one of these two things taken out alone is quite outrageous, let alone they appear together at this time, which is even more outrageous!
The organizer of this "Ascension Conference" is the Heavenly Dao. Is it really okay to cheat so blatantly under the nose of the Heavenly Dao?
"Cheating?"

Chen Yu shook his head: "I never cheat."

Heavenly Dao? Heavenly Dao was still sleeping. If Heavenly Dao woke up, it would be meaningless whether he cheated or not. The one with the highest authority in this Ascension Meeting was the weapon spirit of this secret realm, and this weapon spirit had already surrendered to him. How could this be considered cheating?

Your master is trying to break into your territory, can't you please give him some backdoor?
That's too tactless.

It's all about human nature.

"Oh."

Badan nodded silently and said nothing. Especially when he found out that the person with outstanding performance in the third level was actually his senior, he had only one thought in his mind: the senior was such an open-minded person, not acting at all and not pretending at all.

He just denies it verbally.

In the third round, the seniors did not even take part in the competition, but they still performed outstandingly.

Who can I ask to explain this?

It can be seen that this is not a small thing.

"."

The captain of the "Go Forward" team in the audience stood there in silence with an expressionless face when he saw the five "Peach Fairies". If he had not seen the five "Furnace Fairies", he might have been shocked to see these five Peach Fairies.

But there has already been a shock, so the acceptance level is much higher now.

understand.

Totally understandable.

Then he looked at the expression on the face of the leader of the "Gu Clan", and as expected, he saw a hint of relief on the other's face.

The leader of the "Gu Clan", who was originally very depressed, suddenly felt relieved the moment he saw the five peach fairies appear. He could understand it, everything could be understood.

There are people who are worse off than him yet to come.

but
He suddenly thought of something and looked at the people in the audience with a slightly strange expression.

There are only 45 special identities in total, and at this time, except for Chen Lu's "giant team", he did not see any other team with special identities. Chen Lu's team alone has ten special identities.

An unbelievable possibility suddenly popped up in his mind.

You can't.
It’s impossible that these 45 special identities are all in Chen Lu’s team, right?

As soon as this thought popped up in his mind, he shook his head and laughed at himself. How could it be possible? There were nearly 10,000 people here. How could they give all the special identities to Chen Lu's team?
At this time, in another corner.

Jiang Buping was standing on the bluestone square with some confusion, preparing to try his luck at the fourth level. He still didn't understand why it didn't work when he clearly used his "identity card"?
The content of the "Ascension Meeting" remains unchanged, so he is naturally clear about it.

Those 45 special identities can give you a certain advantage in the first nine entertainment levels of "Masked Dinner".

The "identity card" is a reward in the Ascension Meeting. Its function is to allow the owner to randomly obtain a special identity when entering the Ascension Meeting. He has clearly used this identity card just now.

But why, it didn't work.

at this time--

Another team was teleported to his bluestone square, which meant that the fourth level was about to begin. However, when Jiang Buping saw the group of people in front of him, he was stunned and his voice became louder.

"Chen Yu?!"
