I'm only one year old, what the hell is the counterattack system?

Chapter 326 I am Chen Yi, and I come to challenge you... (Subscribe)
Even though Chen Yi reminded him like this, Liu Lang still insisted on his choice - to face the second-grade Divine Wandering Realm Demon King head-on.

You have to know that Liu Lang's cultivation at this time is only the middle stage of the third level. To cross a major realm and face the Demon King in the Divine Wandering Realm, he needs his swordsmanship to support him in resisting the Demon King's mental erosion.

Otherwise, even if his true essence could resist the invasion of demonic energy, even with the blessing of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, it would still be difficult for him to face the second-grade demon king.

Even if his swordsmanship cannot break through the demon king's protective aura, it is only a matter of time before he is defeated by the demon king.

Previously, when Liu Lang killed the lower-level third-grade leopard monster with a single sword, the spectators around him were already extremely excited. Now, when they learned that he was going to cross a major realm and challenge the Monster King, they were all extremely excited.

"it is good!"

"As expected of a disciple of the Sword Saint, Liu Lang's sword strike showed the grace and demeanor of a genius!"

Seeing this, Chen Yi stopped trying to persuade him. With a wave of his hand, the door at the bottom of the Thousand Machines Tower behind him opened again.

"His-"

Soon, a demon that was slightly smaller than the leopard demon was seen swimming out of the Thousand Machines Tower slowly - it was a snake demon that was five meters tall and twenty meters long!

As soon as it appeared, it circled its huge body around one side of the arena, shrinking together like a small hill.

"Little Sword Immortal, hiss... Is this the Wei Dynasty's Kyoto Prefecture? Sigh..."

The snake demon raised his head and looked around. His millstone-sized eyes examined the wanderers and common people around him with curiosity. Naturally, he also saw the nobles and even the Emperor Wei in the pleasure boats on both sides.

Immediately, its demonic pupils revealed some excitement, "I didn't expect that I would come to the Wei Dynasty in this way in my lifetime, haha..."

"Little Sword Immortal, I have to thank you!"

Without waiting for Chen Yi to reply, its eyes fell on Liu Lang on the other side of the ring, and it saw a pool of thick black demon blood between them. "My opponent? A genius swordsman of the human race?"

"Hiss...delicious."

Many of the surrounding martial artists and common people couldn't help but gasp when they saw the snake demon spit out its long tongue and stare at Liu Lang with its evil eyes.

Although this snake demon was not as powerful as the previous leopard demon, its size and calm words made the onlookers feel cold.

"This demon is even more terrifying than the previous leopard demon. Fortunately, we are fighting in the ring and Lord Yingwu is watching. Otherwise, if this big demon were to wreak havoc on us, I'm afraid we would all die in its mouth."

"Yes, when I was traveling in Nanshan, I once encountered a snake demon. At that time, its cultivation was only at the fifth level, but I, who was already at the fourth level, was chased by it and ran away everywhere."

"In addition to its cultivation, the most terrifying thing about a snake demon is the scales on its body. They are impervious to swords and spears, and are impervious to water and fire. It is difficult for ordinary cultivators to break through its defense. In addition, its snake venom can directly corrode the flesh if it touches it. A powerful snake demon can even corrode the body's protective essence."

"It's really scary... Just seeing its figure from a distance makes me tremble all over... It's too scary..."

It was no wonder that Emperor Wei was angry before. Even though the arena was protected by the sword intent set up by Chen Yi, there were always some people with low cultivation and shallow knowledge who performed very poorly.

But many people were encouraged by Emperor Wei’s anger, especially the geniuses who participated in the event.

Even though most of them were not optimistic about Liu Lang, in order to avoid a situation like Hong Chenxing's, they all spoke up to cheer Liu Lang on.

"Brother Liu Lang, I heard that you have been practicing in that holy land of swordsmanship for several days. Now is the best time to test your swordsmanship. Moreover, Lord Yingwu Hou is right beside you. We cannot let down the might of swordsmen like you."

"That's right, Brother Liu Lang. I'm waiting here. I'll watch you kill that snake demon with one blow of your sword!"

Even Taoist disciples like Lin Xueru and Confucian scholars like Xie Dongan all hoped that Liu Lang could become famous in one battle - at the very least, he had to show the style that a genius should have.

"Brother Liu, kill it in one go!"

Chen Yi raised his hand gently, and immediately made the surroundings quiet down. His eyes fell on Liu Lang, and he nodded and said, "Let's start."

Although he is only the incarnation of Chen Yi's divine will, as the incarnation of the divine will of the fifth level of magical swordsmanship, he has a natural liking for sword cultivators.

Especially a sword cultivator like Liu Lang, whose swordsmanship has reached the peak of the Tongyou realm and is about to break through to the Shentong realm, will be taken care of by him.

"Thank you, Lord Yingwu Hou, for helping me."

Liu Lang stood tall and bowed, then placed his hand on the hilt of his slender sword. He walked forward slowly, facing the second-grade snake demon in the Divine Wandering Realm, and could not help but take a deep breath.

"Human sword cultivator, Liu Lang, please teach me, Demon King of the Demon Court!"

"Oh?"

The snake demon grinned, and its two sharp fangs, which were a dozen feet long, sparkled in the sun. "Human sword cultivator...hiss...hiss..."

"I am the demon king under the throne of King Lu Chen, one of the twelve pillars of the demon court. I am Cheng Yuan of the snake clan and I accept your challenge!"

Lu Chen...

The powerful people around who heard this name changed color slightly, especially Li Qingzhou and others who had been fighting on the battlefield of Taizhou Mountain for many years. They looked at the snake demon with a serious look.

Even though this snake demon's cultivation level was only at the second level of the Divine Wandering Realm and was far from posing a threat to them, the Jiaolong Lu Chen, one of the Twelve Pillars of the Demon Court, was different.

He was a great demon king who had brutally attacked human cultivators on the battlefield of Taizhou Mountain. Even among the twelve pillars, Lu Chen's name was ranked at the front, and his power was comparable to that of Emperor Tian and his group of ancestors in the Demon Court.

"The demon king under Lu Chen's command, haha, if Lu Chen knew what Chen Yi did today, he would probably be so angry that he would die, right?"

The great master had naturally heard of Lu Chen's name. Although his eyes were always on the arena, he was secretly conveying a message to Li Qingzhou.

"Given Lu Chen's narrow-mindedness, he will certainly become angry and ashamed. I'm afraid that the fortress on Mount Taizhou will be attacked by him in a few days."

Li Qingzhou nodded slightly, and after responding through voice transmission, he was looking at Chen Yi.

Although he was unable to display the divine power of the sword in the realm of supernatural powers due to the suppression of the "Bridge of Heaven and Earth" in the Tianyuan Continent, it was not difficult for him to see that the "Chen Yi" standing on the ring at this moment was just the incarnation of Chen Yi's divine power.

The real Chen Yi is obviously not here.

"Fellow Daoist Qingzhou, I originally planned to set off for Mount Taizhou after the event. Now it seems that I will have to delay, or even stay in Tianyuan Continent for the next hundred years."

Hearing the master's words, Li Qingzhou's heart was slightly moved, "Master, are you thinking about the rise of Confucianism and Taoism in the next hundred years?"

"This is only one aspect," Mr. Da thought about his understanding of what Chen Yi said earlier in the past few days, and sighed and transmitted his voice:
"I thought I was a learned man, and that I could inherit the secret knowledge of the three saints and enlighten the people, and educate the people to become a great saint."

"But after listening to what Marquis Yingwu said, I realized that I had gone astray."

"Of course the unique knowledge of the ancient sages must be passed down, but I think the sages of many academies have not done enough to educate and enlighten the people - it is far from enough to just educate the scholars from the scholarly families and the poor students!"

"What I should do is to 'travel through the seventeen states of the Wei Dynasty and measure the hearts of the people'. I should make more than 90% of the people of the Wei Dynasty literate and allow them to choose the path of their lives according to their own circumstances. This is what 'education' means!"

"..."

Li Qingzhou fell silent after hearing this.

Such an ambition is almost as great as the Buddhist's wish to save the people from disaster. There are tens of millions of people in the 17 prefectures of the Wei Dynasty, but the great master intends to visit every inch of it to educate the world.

This courage alone is not something that ordinary people can match.

Even if he went to one city a day, it would take several years, not to mention the numerous villages of all sizes. A hundred years would really pass in the blink of an eye.

"I wish you great success in your endeavor."

"Thank you for your good wishes," the Master smiled and looked at Liu Lang on the stage, then transmitted his voice:
"From now on, the expedition on Mount Taizhou will depend on you and the Taoist sect." "I understand, but the saints of the Confucian academy will also need to rush to Mount Taizhou in time in the future. This is not something I and the Taoist sects can decide. It still needs the decision of the ancestors."

"Of course, there are many resources on Mount Taizhou. It is a place that military strategists call a must-fight place. I and the other saints will provide the necessary support..."

While Li Qingzhou and the master were communicating secretly, Liu Lang on the ring had already accumulated enough sword intent. He took a light step and appeared on the head of the snake demon.

"cut!"

"hiss!"

The snake demon's eyes slightly turned and it saw his figure. A hint of mockery flashed in its eyes, and the snake tail coiled under its body actually arrived first and blocked the long sword.

"too slow!"

Although Liu Lang missed the attack, his expression remained calm. With the help of the force from the snake's tail, he used the long sword in his hand to suddenly turn his body and passed through the snake's tail like a ghost, appearing between the two evil eyes of the snake demon.

Immediately, his sword intent surged, and he grasped the hilt of the sword with both hands and swung it downwards, instantly connecting with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and condensing it on the sword body.

"Tread the waves!"

The surging sword energy rolled down like waves, and in the blink of an eye, dozens of sword intentions slashed on the snake demon's head one after another.

Ding dong, ding dong...

After the crisp sound, Liu Lang, who had succeeded in his attack, did not show any joy. Instead, he dodged and landed on the stage with a serious expression.

Looking at the snake demon again, its eyelids were trembling, and only a few tiny scales were cut off by the sword.

"Is this your sword art?"

"Human sword cultivator... huh!"

As he spoke, the snake demon opened his demon pupils, and unconsciously looked at Chen Yi on the side, grinning:

"If it was a sword cultivator like Little Sword Immortal, I would be inferior to him, but a sword cultivator prodigy like you... your name is not even worthy of me knowing it!"

"..."

Liu Lang's expression changed slightly when he heard this, and he tightened the sword in his hand, "Come again!"

……

At this moment, there was a fierce fight on the arena on Chen Yi's side, while on the other side, Taoist Huangshan changed the previous calculations on the Thousand Machine Tower, and the assessment of the Flower Fairy and other Qimen and Dandao practitioners seemed much more low-key and normal.

"Focus your mind!"

"You are all geniuses like them, but your talents lie in alchemy and the art of magic, not in martial arts!"

"If you can't even see your own advantages, your future path will only become narrower and narrower, and you will never be able to compete with martial arts practitioners!"

Taoist Huangshan glanced at the Thousand Machines Tower and secretly scolded Chen Yi for being ungentle.

You should know that when he used the Thousand Machines Tower to test the geniuses before, he attracted a lot of scolding from the geniuses. In the past few days, many martial artists and seniors from the sects in Kyoto Prefecture have secretly scolded him, Taoist Huangshan, as an "old monster".

Now Chen Yi uses the Thousand Machine Tower, but he only uses it as a storage device. What is contained inside is not the checkpoints with tricks and calculations, but a group of great demons with varying levels of cultivation.

This usage, on the contrary, won the admiration of geniuses who were good at martial arts and conquests. It was a stark difference compared to their previous attitude towards him. No wonder the Taoist priest Huangshan was dissatisfied.

"In today's grand event, only one person from the Dan Dao, Qi Men, and Za Jia lineages will pass the assessment and be allowed to participate in the subsequent Tian Yuan Continent's Tian Jiao expedition. You must not be careless!"

Upon hearing this, Fairy Hua, Du Yan and the others no longer cared to pay attention to the fight on the other side of the ring. After calming down, they bowed and said, "We will follow the instructions of Taoist Master Huangshan!"

Taoist Huangshan nodded slightly upon seeing this, waved his whisk, and saw three things appear on the stage.

From left to right, there are the alchemy furnace, the formation plate and a painting.

"Alchemists can practice alchemy, Qimen can evolve formations, and the geniuses of various sects can enter the Mountain and River Map to show their talents. There are no restrictions on the assessment. Show your best performance."

"As long as I am satisfied, the title of the first-place winner of this event will fall on you!"

After saying that, Taoist Huangshan shook his sleeves, sat cross-legged on the stage and then floated in the air, quietly watching the performance of the geniuses below.

Flower Fairy, Du Yan and others looked at each other and stood in front of the test that suited their talents.

It was not until this time that the martial artists watching around realized that among the geniuses who passed the second round of assessment, there were only two alchemy practitioners and four formation practitioners, and the rest were miscellaneous practitioners.

The two alchemy practitioners are Flower Fairy and Yue Ziyang, a university scholar from Qinghe Academy, while the four formation practitioners are the heirs of the holy land of the Taoist sect including Du Yan.

Most of the miscellaneous cultivators are from secluded families or are direct descendants of their predecessors, and most of them do not show off their abilities.

"Senior Sister Hua, why don't you start first?" Yue Ziyang said politely as he stood in front of the alchemy furnace.

The Flower Fairy stared at the alchemy furnace that was more than five meters tall with her beautiful eyes and shook her head gently: "You go first."

"Sister..."

Before Yue Ziyang could give way again, the Flower Fairy turned her eyes to the other arena and looked at Chen Yi's divine incarnation. "If I go first, you won't have the chance to show off your alchemy skills."

"..."

Yue Ziyang opened his mouth and his face turned red instantly.

But seeing the flower fairy looking at the other side without hiding her eyes, she could only grit her teeth:
"In that case, I will respectfully obey your orders. However, I believe that my alchemy skills are not weak, so I hope Senior Sister will not take it lightly."

The flower fairy nodded without comment, her eyes still fixed on Chen Yi.

Previously, she had followed Chen Yi to the outside of Beixiong Pass and had seen the power of Chen Yi's incarnation of divine will. Naturally, she knew that his incarnation of divine will could only display the divine will of swordsmanship and could not display the magical power of "a world within reach".

Therefore, combined with previous observations, she can be sure that the Chen Yi standing on the stage at this moment is not his real body, but the incarnation of his divine will.

"Where did Senior Brother Chen Yi go?"

……

At the same time, tens of thousands of miles away, in the mountains south of Beizhili and north of Jiangnan Prefecture.

In an area surrounded by mist, shrouded in clouds and fog, and with clear mountains.

But one after another, silver-white long swords that pierced through the sky and earth rose from the ground along the outer edge of the mountains.

In just a breath, these towering swords covered the area of ​​tens of thousands of miles around them, isolating them from the outside world and blocking the way for all the cultivators inside to leave.

Seeing this situation, Chen Yi waved his hand, and the little green dragon on his wrist turned into a dragon body again, lifting him up and standing proudly between heaven and earth.

"I am Chen Yi, and I am here to challenge Taoist Zeyang of Yuhua Sect!"
