Chosen Evolution: I can load the protagonist template

Chapter 790 Altar Battle!

The three immortals were quite arrogant, and they certainly had the confidence to back it up. Whether in terms of national power or magical strength, they did not believe they would lose to the foreign sorcerers.

However, adhering to the principle of "better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free," they will patiently accept all challenges except those from Buddhism.

The world is so big, what if someone has some supernatural power that could make the three of them ascend to immortality? Wouldn't it be a great regret if they missed it?
Whether there are dates or not, they'll try three times, which fits their behavioral logic perfectly.

Moreover, they also wanted to test whether any of the three people in front of them were the one they were looking for.

"Five Elements Magic!"

The player leading the trio shouted.

Then Cheng Tian watched as an observer a very standard magical duel in which both sides exercised restraint.

Tiger Power Immortal is skilled at summoning wind and rain and has a basic understanding of the Five Thunder Technique.

The Great Immortal Deer Power is skilled at manipulating flying swords, and his attacks are exceptionally tricky.

What's rather surprising about Master Yangli is that he knows a very orthodox Five Thunder Orthodox Method, it's unclear whether he learned it from someone else or figured it out on his own.

Cheng Tian wasn't too surprised by this. Although it used the character designs from the 86 version, it was essentially still Journey to the West: The Monkey King. The flying sword and thunder magic had already been shown in the game.

However, it was the three people engaging in a magical battle that caught Cheng Tian's eye.

The trio were clearly magic-oriented players. The player fighting against Yangli Daxian called himself "Young Phoenix" and used a very sophisticated fire attack spell. The knowledgeable Cheng Tian quickly realized that this Young Phoenix's spell system came from the strategist class in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Cao Cao's Biography".

Faced with the Five Thunderbolts of the Great Immortal Yangli, the young phoenix used the Fire Dragon strategy to confront it head-on. Every time she waved her feather fan, the temperature and coverage of the fire dragon would increase significantly.

If this fledgling phoenix really does become a strategist, then theoretically it should also have a "small supply" to restore health, a "Qi combination" to enhance mental attributes, and a "meditation" that can exchange health for mana to a certain extent.

The player who faced off against Lu Li Da Xian was called "the number one expert at Hulao Pass". This guy was obviously more physically robust and used the "Divine Sword" series from the Three Kingdoms Heroes 2 general system, which summons flying swords made of energy to attack others.

This led to a thrilling flying sword duel with the greedy Deer Power Immortal.

This flying sword manipulation was actually a contest of techniques based on the Five Elements of Metal, and did not go beyond the main theme.

As for the player who faced off against the strongest Tiger Power Immortal, it was a woman with the ID "Green Snake," and her spell pool was quite varied.

During the battle, Cheng Tian saw that the Green Snake used the Whirlwind Spell, the Mystic Ice Spell, the Flying Rock Technique, the Five Thunder Spell, and the complete Samadhi True Fire!
Not just specialized, but all-around proficient!

Caught off guard, Tiger Power Immortal, who was only good at using his connections to wield power and only knew the basics of the Five Thunder Technique, and was actually more skilled in physical close combat, ended up in a rather sorry state.

"Could it be that she has some blood connection with Zhao Ling'er from the Legend of Sword and Fairy?"

As Cheng Tian stroked his chin, a possibility immediately came to mind.

Although the opponent is currently using only the intermediate-level magic abilities mastered by Zhao Ling'er from "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 98: Soft Love Edition", it cannot be ruled out that the opponent is hiding even stronger magic.

Once a player changes jobs, they will generally have five or six fixed skill slots, as well as additional job skill slots. Perhaps these five intermediate spells are actually derivative branches of the "Five Elements Spell".

Cheng Tian, ​​who had watched the whole thing, looked completely satisfied.

With the development of video games to this point, there are too many games that can be considered dungeons. It's impossible for one person to complete all of them in a lifetime, and Cheng Tian also has his own preferences. Therefore, in such situations, it's necessary to rely on the experiences of other players to supplement the game. In this competition, the variety of Green Snake's spells made Tiger Li a bit embarrassed, but overall, everyone was happy. The three immortals not only offered valuable items that could be converted into Heavenly Chosen Coins as travel expenses, but also extended a warm invitation to the trio to discuss and learn spells with them afterward. Green Snake, who could use the Five Thunder Spell and Samadhi True Fire, had already been regarded as a fellow practitioner by them.

To be fair, although the three immortals exploited monks to the extreme, treating them like livestock, and even foreigners were arrested and confiscated, they did not do anything similar to the common people of their own country.

Even the Tiger Power Immortal, who was most likely to eat people, stopped doing so after gaining spiritual power and rationality.

They did indeed gain a high status and power in Chechi Kingdom through unorthodox rainmaking techniques, but they did alleviate Chechi Kingdom's agricultural problems to some extent, even if this relief was no different from drinking poison to quench thirst.

Ultimately, the source of Chechi Kingdom's severe drought and lack of rain has nothing to do with the Three Immortals; at most, they can only be said to have taken advantage of the situation.

...If you say that the Heavenly Court wasn't involved, Cheng Tian absolutely wouldn't believe it.

In other words, the Great Sage is incredibly powerful and has extensive connections. He only needs to send a message to the heavens to make the four gods of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning immediately change their allegiance and abandon the signal sent by Tiger Power Immortal.

If it were someone else without connections, do you think the Four Gods would even acknowledge them?

The trio visibly delighted as they descended from the altar, for their exceptional magical abilities had successfully triggered the prelude to the new main storyline. Now, all they had to do was wait for the discussion and learning phase to further advance the story.

But when they saw their gazes fall on Cheng Tian and his group, their joyful expressions immediately vanished, and they looked uneasy, as if they wanted to say something but didn't know what to say.

Their biggest worry was that Cheng Tian would suddenly go into berserk mode and attack the three immortals like he did when he killed the goldfish spirit. If that happened, their new main storyline would be ruined on the spot.

Now that the main storyline has been triggered and new hope has been seen, it's like investing more sunk costs, and we're reluctant to give up easily.

At this point, they had a reason to grit their teeth and go all the way down the dark path.

The trio did not leave, but stayed at the scene under the same pretext of wanting to watch the battle. They used the fruits from Chechi Kingdom to speed up their recovery while preparing to make their move at the opportune moment.

With the support of the entire Chechi Kingdom, the three immortals simply ate and drank, quickly making up for the energy depleted from their previous battle.

Now that the trio has set a good example, they are clearly not taking Cheng Tian's group of challengers as seriously.

Perhaps meat is harder to digest quickly, because this time it was Sheep Power Immortal who spoke up.

"How do you intend to fight?"

The Great Immortal Yangli, stroking his goatee, was observing Cheng Tian and his group quite seriously, but he couldn't figure out what was going on because Cheng Tian was deliberately concealing his intentions.

"The Five Elements Techniques"

Cheng Tian presented the exact same proposition as the previous set.

But before Yangli Daxian could even speak, Cheng Tian immediately uttered an additional condition that made the three immortals and the king stare wide-eyed in disbelief.

"I'll take on all three of you."

Cheng Tian's entire aura clearly conveyed two words—

Arrogant! Boastful!
