Under One Person: Please Call Me Golden Flash

Chapter 136 The Old Man Teases the Child

Lu Jin, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, couldn't help but click her tongue in amazement when she saw this scene.

"Master, did you see that?"

"Hmm, your teacher isn't blind yet."

Zuo Ruotong nodded.

"That's not what I meant. Don't you feel that Zhao Zhen is just playing around right now and isn't seriously fighting Junior Brother Zhuge at all?"

"Do I even need to feel it? Isn't it obvious?"

Zuo Ruotong rolled her eyes with a helpless expression.

"This battle, though called a drill, was clearly an old man playing with a child. From the very beginning, Xiao Dan had no chance of winning!"

"Huh? Is it that exaggerated?"

Lu Jin blinked. He thought he had overestimated Zhao Zhen enough, but he didn't expect his master to have an even higher opinion of Zhao Zhen than he did.

"The difference between Xiao Dan and Zhao Zhen is too great, both in terms of cultivation level and combat experience."

Even if he had already mastered the martial arts techniques before becoming an apprentice, and before learning the Reverse Life Triple Technique, his mediocre skill level was only good for playing around with his fellow disciples. If he were to truly face a powerful opponent, the outcome would only be like what we see now.

"Master, is it just my imagination? Why do I feel that Zhao Zhen's cultivation level seems to have increased a lot in the past few years?"

"No, it's not my imagination. Unlike a few years ago, Zhao Zhen now gives me a familiar aura. It seems that what he's practicing now is the Quanzhen internal alchemy technique..."

Zuo Ruotong frowned, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

"The Complete Perfection of Internal Alchemy? That's impossible, Master."

As one of the three ancestral schools of Taoism, how could their internal alchemy techniques be passed down privately to outsiders unless one had become a disciple of Quanzhen?

"I only said it felt somewhat similar, but upon closer inspection, it seems to be slightly different from the internal alchemy techniques of the Quanzhen School. It's really quite strange..."

Just as the master and disciple were exchanging words, on the field, after using several different territorial spells in succession but failing to cause any damage to Zhao Zhen, Zhuge Dan finally gave up on his plan to harass and exhaust Zhao Zhen's stamina with spells.

Because from beginning to end, Zhao Zhen didn't even move his feet, let alone expend any energy!

On the contrary, after using several territorial spells in succession, he had already consumed nearly half of his true qi.

At this moment, Zhuge Dan finally realized that something was wrong.

Logically speaking, since Zhao Zhen has already learned the Qimen Manifestation Technique, he should be able to see the formation he just set up under his feet.

Since he could see it, given his understanding of Qimen Dunjia, he should have known that the direction he stepped on was the most inauspicious direction in this situation!

Even knowing this, Zhao Zhen remained standing still.

What is this? Forced release of water?

"Senior Brother Zhao Zhen, are you really planning to stand still in the same place forever?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhen realized that Zhuge Dan had already seen through his subtle act of letting him win.

But it doesn't matter, since he was "letting the sea go" anyway, which is indeed a fact.

"Junior Brother Zhuge, I remember you once told me that so-called sorcerers are simply people who seek good fortune and avoid misfortune?"

"Yes." Zhuge Dan nodded.

“I don’t think so,” Zhao Zhen shook her head.

"Becoming a sorcerer only allows us to distinguish between good and bad fortune, but if we only seek good fortune and avoid misfortune, then why bother to distinguish between them in the first place?"
Just like your ancestor Zhuge Liang, who knowingly did the impossible, that is the kind of sorcerer I admire.

"Knowing it's impossible, yet still doing it..."

Zhuge Dan was slightly taken aback, and looked down at the direction he was standing on.

Good luck.

Does stepping into an auspicious direction truly mean that the battle will be won?
After standing there for a moment in thought, Zhuge Dan slowly raised his head.

"Senior Brother Zhao Zhen, I understand." As Zhuge Dan finished speaking, bursts of white true qi appeared between his hands.

"Exchange, drum flashes!"

One after another, crystals lit up in the center of the square like flashbangs, so bright that people had to squint.

Zhao Zhen also squinted, her vision completely blocked for a moment.

"Kun character, Tuheche!"

Zhuge Dan murmured again, and the next second, the ground beneath Zhao Zhen's feet suddenly began to soften, as if it were about to swallow him whole.

Zhao Zhen exerted a slight force with his feet, and his whole body rose into the air, dodging the restraint of Zhuge Dan's Earth River Chariot.

"Eight Gods' Power, White Tiger! Eight Gates, Transport!"

The next instant, Zhuge Dan's figure vanished from the spot.

By the time everyone reacted, a black hole suddenly appeared behind Zhao Zhen, and Zhuge Dan's figure emerged from the black hole, throwing a powerful punch at Zhao Zhen's back.

Because they were in the air, Zhao Zhen had no way of turning around.

Only now do people realize that Zhuge Dan's Drum Flash and Earth River Chariot were all just preparations for this punch!

"it is good!!!"

At this moment, even the members of the Sanyi Sect couldn't help but admire Zhuge Dan's quick wit.

boom! ! !
A muffled thud rang out in the air, but as a dark shadow crashed down, everyone realized that the person lying on the ground was none other than Zhuge Dan himself.

In the sky, Zhao Zhen's figure slowly descended.

With a smile on his lips, he slowly walked to Zhuge Dan, who was completely unable to move.

"How about it, Junior Brother Zhuge? My Golden Escape Flowing Light technique isn't any worse than your Eight Gates Movement, is it?"

Zhuge Dan didn't speak, he just blinked frantically.

A silver needle had already pierced the back of his neck, the exposed half of it gleaming coldly in the sunlight.

Zhao Zhen laughed and reached out to pull the silver needle out of Zhuge Dan's neck.

The moment the silver needle was pulled out, Zhuge Dan collapsed to the ground like a dead fish.

"I admit defeat, Senior Brother Zhao Zhen."

My Eight Gates Transfer Technique has to be selective about its location, but your Golden Release: Flowing Light Technique has absolutely no limitations!

Just as Zhuge Dan thought he could at least land a punch on Zhao Zhen, a golden light suddenly shone before his eyes.

The next second, he completely lost consciousness.

If Zhuge Dan still felt confused about his defeat, he instantly realized what had happened after Zhao Zhen removed the silver needle from the back of his neck.

"Senior brother, your Golden Escape Stream is too fast. I can't react at all."

"That's only because your cultivation level isn't high enough, and your reaction time isn't fast enough. Once you reach the second level..."

"You'll be able to react once you reach the second level?"

"No, at least you won't have your meridians sealed by a needle, Erzhong."

"..."

Zhao Zhen smiled and shook her head.

With his current cultivation level, beating this kind of hothead is simply a one-sided crushing victory.

Even without relying on the Golden Escape technique, he could easily slap Lu Jin down like Zhang Zhiwei did in the original story.

Moreover, child, once you reach the second level, guess what level my cultivation will reach?
