Cultivation of Immortality: This is what unorthodox methods are like.

—The chapter numbers were wrong in the previous chapters, and it would be too troublesome to correct them, so I've adjusted them here directly.—

On the warship platform, countless cultivators of the Purple Mansion realm threw out defensive and offensive spells, exchanging blows aimlessly.

As for how many people they defeated, they had no idea.

Because, under these abrupt rules of combat, these Purple Mansion cultivators are merely ruthless emplacements.

In a battlefield of this scale, individual skills and abilities can only prolong one's life a little longer.

The rest is up to fate.

If one's abilities are great enough, then one can defy fate and change one's destiny; one's fate is in one's own hands, not in the hands of heaven.

—There are quite a few who, relying on their superb magical skills and profound knowledge, have withstood wave after wave of magical attacks.

As Wang Quan and others unleashed their spells in a fierce exchange, the gears inside the warship platform began to turn, causing the battlefield to shrink continuously.

Every ten breaths, the warship platform shrinks by one size.

In the short time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the enormous warship platform shrank by two-thirds.

The number of cultivators in the Purple Mansion realm has also decreased by about two-thirds.

At this moment, although many spells were still clashing, the many Purple Mansion cultivators either used their escape light to roar, joined forces to release defensive spells, or threw out magical treasures, and managed to withstand the attack.

Fewer and fewer cultivators are withdrawing from the battles.

After several dozen breaths, the cultivators had adapted to this frenzied exchange of blows, and no one withdrew from the battle.

At this moment, a voice announced: "The first phase of the battle has ended. The second phase of the battle will now begin."

The next moment, Wang Quan and the others saw the large ship platform roar, and many decks and parts rose into the air, piecing together in mid-air to form a huge cylinder.

"The second phase of the battle begins."

"This duel will be one-on-one."

"Participants, please enter the arena. Those who do not wish to participate in the duel can leave by paying for a top-tier Foundation Establishment platform."

The cultivators were stunned.

They thought that giving up the battle would still require paying for a Purple Mansion, but the conditions had changed, and only a Foundation Establishment Platform was needed.

A top-tier Foundation Establishment platform is extremely precious to those at the Foundation Establishment stage.

However, for those at the Purple Mansion Realm, accumulating resources for just two years is enough to build a top-tier Foundation Establishment Platform.

Not much pressure.

"Those old fogies up there, at least they've acted like human beings for once."

A cultivator muttered something, then transformed into a beam of white light and rushed towards the tower.

call out!call out!call out!

At this moment, the other cultivators, like a torrent, rushed towards the tower from all directions.

Wang Quan found Yu Wanzhou, the two exchanged a few words, and then rushed together toward the hole in the tower.

call out!

Wang Quan plunged into the hole and the next moment appeared in a space about seven or eight miles in size.

At the same time, a male cultivator from the Great Sun Path appeared on the opposite side.

The two exchanged a glance, and without a word, immediately began to unleash their spells against each other.

After exchanging blows for only a few breaths, the male cultivator from the Great Sun Path roared to the sky, then formed a hand seal, and a phantom resembling a jade seal appeared behind him: "Fellow Daoist, if you haven't copied magic treasures before, you're likely to be defeated today."

"Fellow Daoist, why don't you just give up the duel and save yourself some energy?"

Wang Quan smiled: "I have never copied any magical artifacts, but I do possess magical artifacts."

As he spoke, an arm emerged from his side, carrying the [Dutian Banner].

The Great Sun Dao cultivator glanced at the illusory image of his own magical treasure, then at the physical magical treasure in Wang Quan's hand, and sighed, "Since you were born, why was I born?"

"Fellow Daoist, I admit defeat!"

Wang Quan had a magic weapon, and he instantly lost his fighting spirit.

After all, the difference in combat power between cultivators with magic weapons and those without is like heaven and earth.

call out!

A flash of white light, and the Great Sun Dao cultivator vanished.

Royal power........

Click! Click! Click!

The walls changed, and another room collided and merged with the room he was in.

Then Wang Quan saw one Great Sun Dao cultivator after another.

The cultivator, holding a three-legged bronze cauldron in one hand and the other behind his back, calmly said with his back to Wang Quan, "Fellow Daoist, what do you think of the magic weapon in my hand?"

Wang Quan coughed: "Not bad!"

The cultivator chuckled, "My magic weapon is called Thousand Jun!"

"Although it's only a first-tier magic weapon, it can still suppress everything!"

"Fellow Daoist, you've only managed to copy one magic weapon as your trump card."

"And a copied magic weapon can never be a match for a real magic weapon."

"So... fellow Daoist, to save you some face, you can withdraw on your own, so I can save some energy."

Royal power.....

"Fellow Daoist, why don't you turn around and look at me?"

The Great Sun Dao cultivator turned around and saw the [Dutian Banner] in Wang Quan's hand.

His lips twitched: "You have one magic weapon, I'll give you one."

"It's a 50/50 chance!"

Click!

Another arm grew from Wang Quan's ribs, this time grabbing the [Immobilization Bead].

Sensing the power emanating from the two magical treasures, the Great Sun Dao cultivator coughed and said, "Thank you for your courtesy, fellow Daoist."

"However, fellow Daoist, don't be arrogant. If you encounter my eldest sister, she will definitely treat you with respect."

As he spoke, he suddenly transformed into a beam of white light and soared into the sky.

We admit defeat!

It's impossible to fight anymore.

They gave themselves a decent living.

Click!

Wang Quan retrieved the [Immobilization Pearl] magic item, carrying only the [Capital Banner].

Click!Click!

The rooms continue to change, and new opponents emerge.

Whoosh!

Wang Quan shook the [Dutian Banner]: "Fellow Daoist, I'll give you some face."

opponent.......

Click! Click! Click!

The room keeps spinning, and the king encounters one opponent after another.

Some of these opponents possess powerful weapons, but most do not.

Those who possess magical treasures have only encountered one; no one has ever encountered two.

Therefore, when Wang Quan produced two magical treasures, his opponent immediately conceded defeat.

one.....

Ten...

Fifty...

One by one, the rooms disappeared, the warship platform unfolded again, and then Wang Quan saw the other cultivators.

These cultivators, still a vast and numerous group, numbered approximately tens of thousands.

There are many people, but compared to the initial number, this number is too small.

This screening was so thorough that only one in a thousand survived.

However, the remaining monks were all quite extraordinary.

A cultivator nearby muttered, "So many people have been eliminated in just one hour."

"This kind of magical duel is so lacking in ceremony."

Many cultivators nearby nodded in agreement: "That's right. I had just shown three magic treasures after I went in, and before I even had a chance to warm up my hands and feet, my opponent had already admitted defeat."

"It's really boring."

The remaining cultivators grumbled and expressed their dissatisfaction.

At that moment, a voice descended from the sky: "One hour's rest period."

"The formal duel will begin in one hour."

"The price for conceding defeat in this battle is still—a top-tier Foundation Establishment platform."

Upon hearing the news, many seemingly carefree and indifferent cultivators secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

People aren't stupid:

At this moment, the remaining cultivators on their side possess at least two magic treasures, and some possess three or four.

To possess so many magical treasures, one must either have strong connections or be extremely powerful.

The other side should be the same.

The upcoming battle will be a tough fight, and neither opponent will be easy to deal with.

Because it requires the use of magical artifacts, one wrong move could result in death or even the complete annihilation of one's soul, making it extremely dangerous.

If one only needs a foundation-building platform to avoid death and the dissipation of one's cultivation, then there will be no worries about the future, and one can fully unleash one's abilities and begin a true battle of magic.
