546: Golden elixir gift and persecution (two-in-one thanks to Oiyawei and Taiwanese for reading novels)

"Actually, you should have bet a prize!" Immortal Master Fengxing couldn't help but say regretfully.

"Victory is more important than a prize!" Lin Shiming shook his head, noncommittal.

Perhaps in the past, he would have respected Immortal Master Fengxing by three points.

But not today. Since he already knew that Nine Dragon Island was still plotting against the Lin Family, Lin Shiming no longer needed to give him Face.

"Reward!" On Coral Mountain, True Lord Xueshan also waved her hand, and a sky-blue Magic Treasure Flying Sword flew out from the mountain peak, finally landing in front of Lin Zeli.

"Many thanks, Alliance Leader!" Lin Zeli quickly bowed in thanks.

Afterward, she also examined the Magic Treasure. It was a High Grade Fourth-Tier Magic Treasure.

The sword body was like blue jade, and the Sword Light was rich. It was definitely a top-tier item among High Grade Fourth-Tier Magic Treasures.

This scene made many young Cultivators look forward to their turn.

"We have long heard that Thousand Machine Island of the Coral Alliance is a sacred island for Spirit Puppets. Today, our Thousand Buddha Island would like to exchange pointers and offer a gift to the True Lord!"

At this moment, the Buddhist Immortal Master from Thousand Buddha Island also stepped forward:

Saying that, he pointed to a young Shami behind him.

The Shami's Face was exceptionally clear, and the purity in his eyes was something other Cultivators could not achieve.

Such monks were the most formidable on Thousand Buddha Island.

It wasn't because these monks didn't kill, but because their mental fortitude and unwavering determination towards the Dao had already reached an extraordinary level.

Daoists Cultivate the body; Buddhists Cultivate the mind.

"Chen He, you go!" Real Person Xuanji glanced at the monk and spoke to the Mid Purple Mansion Realm youth behind him.

That monk was also in the Mid Purple Mansion Realm, and their Cultivation was comparable.

However, Thousand Machine Island clearly had a higher chance of winning.

After all, one was a Spirit Puppet Master, and his greatest strength was group combat.

This seemed a bit unfair to the monk from Thousand Buddha Island.

The two quickly ascended the arena.

"This humble monk, Jinsha, requests your guidance!" The young monk made a gesture of invitation.

Then, his entire body was covered in golden light, like a golden copper statue.

Daoist Chen He from Thousand Machine Island took out two Fourth-Tier Spirit Puppets.

However, the next moment, Daoist Jinsha transformed into a copper statue and charged out. In front of him, flower rolls unfolded one after another, and his movement technique was extremely strange!

Every time he closed in, Daoist Chen He had no choice but to use his Fourth-Tier Spirit Puppets to directly withstand the blows.

After several exchanges, both Fourth-Tier Spirit Puppets had dented chests.

If it were an ordinary Cultivator, they would already be severely injured.

And as the final blow landed, Daoist Chen He was instantly knocked out of the arena.

"Jinsha wins!" Immortal Master Chishan announced.

"To deal with these bald donkeys, we still need our Blood Cultivation Sect!"

"True Lord, this Junior has a Junior from the Blood Saber lineage who wants to see whose bitter sea is more formidable, the monk's or our butcher's knife!" Immortal Master Xie Xue suggested.

As soon as these words were spoken, all the Immortal Masters from the Blood Cultivation Sect and Thousand Buddha Island began to confront each other.

This scene made everyone smile wryly.

The confrontation between the Blood Cultivation Sect and Thousand Buddha Island was truly ubiquitous. It was clearly impossible for them to sit down and talk peacefully.

"You can try the Juniors from Tianliu Island. They are also among the top three islands in our Coral Alliance!" True Lord Xueshan said.

It was naturally impossible to let them fight today, otherwise all the competitions today might turn into a contest between the Blood Cultivation Sect and Thousand Buddha Island.

This did not fit today's theme, nor did it fit what they were going to discuss next.

"Replying to True Lord, Tianliu is willing to give it a try and add to this prize!" Zhao Yulin also spoke at this moment.

Her words were very calm, and in her eyes, there seemed to be some doubt.

This was also her first opportunity to make eye contact and speak with True Lord Xueshan.

However, the latter completely ignored Zhao Yulin.

The female Cultivator behind Zhao Yulin stepped out. This female Cultivator was precisely that Heavenly Spiritual Root Purple Mansion Cultivator, and also a Sword Cultivator.

"Wood Core, please enlighten me!"

"Blood Saber, but even if it's a woman, I won't be soft-hearted!" Daoist Blood Saber was a Cultivator with a red beard, and his eyes revealed a bloodthirsty intent.

Not having a Buddhist monk to fight made him unhappy, but being able to fight and kill excited him.

The Magic Treasure in his hand was also a blood-red Blood Saber, which was clearly his Lifebound Treasure.

As for Daoist Wood Core, she wielded a wood-green Magic Treasure Flying Sword.

One with Sword Intent, the other with Saber Intent, the Spirit Light shook with their intense battle.

This scene also made Lin Zeli and Lin Yanxing's eyes shine!

Daoist Wood Core had also reached the Realm of Sword Qi Coagulation, her Sword Intent dense and continuous.

This was also a characteristic of most Sword Cultivators on Tianliu Island.

Compared to Daoist Blood Saber, he was even more distinctive, with unparalleled offense!

Crimson Saber Light appeared one after another, like surging waves, becoming increasingly terrifying.

Moreover, the secret techniques of the Blood Cultivation Sect were to increase combat power, which put Tianliu Island at a great disadvantage.

And the result was no exception; Daoist Blood Saber of the Blood Cultivation Sect defeated Daoist Wood Core.

This left Daoist Wood Core disheartened, while the Blood Cultivation Sect's Aura was at its peak. Even so, they still only wanted to fight Thousand Buddha Island.

The next prize competition was a Cultivator from Chilan Sect challenging a Junior of Real Person Hongye.

This battle was extremely fast.

However, this time, Real Person Hongye's Junior achieved victory.

And received a Magic Treasure bestowed by True Lord Xueshan.

Clearly, Real Person Hongye had made ample preparations for this competition.

After one round, two rising families won, while the established Tianliu Island and Thousand Machine Island lost.

Of course, no one would blame them, as their opponents were also Cultivators from the six major forces.

They were also Core Disciples from the Blood Cultivation Sect and Thousand Buddha Island, who were more skilled in combat.

After one round, other families also began to offer gifts and compete.

Some challenged Disciples within the Coral Alliance, while others challenged the younger generation of other forces.

Foundation Establishment Cultivators also began to take the stage.

Lin Changxing and Lin Zehong both participated, but both ended in defeat. However, Lin Yanxing, relying on his talent as a Sword Cultivator, defeated his opponent and once again received a reward from True Lord Xueshan.

The subsequent competitions appeared one after another, leaving Lin Zeli, Lin Changxing, and others awestruck.

Their arrogance of the past had diminished considerably today.

Especially the two losses, which made them realize that there is always a higher mountain and a more capable person.

Talent here was truly the most common thing.

Only by mastering more methods could one stand out!

And one must know that these were still affiliated Cultivators of the major forces, yet each one was extremely powerful, not much older than those of the Lin Family, but their Cultivation far surpassed them.

Lin Shiming also felt a bit emotional. The Lin Family's time was still somewhat short.

At the final stage of the competition, Purple Mansion Late Stage Cultivators from the other three major forces challenged Purple Mansion Late Stage Cultivators from Coral Island.

That magnificent scene was not much inferior to Golden Core battles.

It presented a visual feast throughout Coral Island.

If they had previously thought that Coral Island's decision to divide and control the number of Qi Refining Cultivators was a mistake.

Now, they felt that the gap was too large, and Qi Refining Cultivators could not understand this ceremony. Going to the Sub-island to participate in the Sub-island competition and offering gifts might be better for them.

And the results were quite normal: Coral Island had two wins and two losses.

The sky gradually darkened.

The competition was clearly about to end, and next would be the True Lord's lecture.

Just then, Immortal Master Fengxing spoke again:

"Several True Lord Seniors, this Junior dares to say that since it is a True Lord's ceremony, then the offerings for the ceremony cannot be without the Immortal Masters' offerings!" Immortal Master Fengxing said.

As soon as these words were spoken,

Everyone was shocked to the extreme.

After all, Immortal Masters had always been high and mighty, belonging to the top combat power of the South Sea.

Now, asking them to fight and offer gifts, they naturally couldn't react in time.

And felt it was beneath their dignity.

For Lin Shiming, it was even more alarming; this Immortal Master Fengxing was clearly again eyeing the golden dragon fruit tree.

Previously, Nine Dragon Island had seven golden dragon fruit trees, but now only five remained.

They couldn't reclaim them from the Jiaolong Clan, so they could only look towards Lin Shiming now.

At this point, it was clear that no matter how much Lin Shiming said, they wouldn't believe him.

The commotion of Wang Jiao Undergoing Tribulation was very loud, and it had clearly spread.

The Lin Family was not a Spirit Snake Family, but a Jiaolong (Flood Dragon) Family.

"This is excellent. What do you think, Fellow Daoist Xueshan?" Lord Nine Dragons responded.

Immortal Master Fengxing's action was clearly instigated by Lord Nine Dragons.

"Feasible!" True Lord Xueshan hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"Coincidentally, this humble one has known Immortal Master Qian Mu for a long time and is extremely curious about Immortal Master Qian Mu's beast taming and sword techniques!"

"I humbly request a battle!" Immortal Master Fengxing said.

Saying that, he made a gesture of invitation towards Lin Shiming.

"Fellow Daoist Feng is joking. This humble one has just entered the Middle Stage of Golden Core. How can I be Senior Brother Feng's opponent!" Lin Shiming naturally wouldn't agree so easily.

Immortal Master Fengxing was an experienced Late Golden Core Stage Cultivator who could retreat unscathed even after clashing with Azure Flood Dragon King and many Jiaolong. His strength was terrifying. Lin Shiming naturally wouldn't make a move unless he could use the Spirit Communication Sword.

But clearly, the Cultivators of Nine Dragon Island would not give him this opportunity, so he simply refused to fight.

An experienced Late Golden Core Stage Cultivator challenging a new Middle Stage Golden Core Cultivator.

Lin Shiming naturally wouldn't agree.

As soon as these words were spoken, Immortal Master Fengxing also nodded, clearly having anticipated Lin Shiming's refusal.

After all, with his strength, if he were to make a move, Lin Shiming would surely call for help.

That's why he only mentioned learning about beast taming and sword techniques, not overall strength.

He had only tried it out just now.

"Fellow Daoist Qian Mu, if Immortal Master Fengxing is not suitable, can I?" At this moment, a Middle Stage Golden Core Cultivator stepped out.

He looked at Lin Shiming, and Lin Shiming also looked at him.

This person was a newly advanced Middle Stage Golden Core Cultivator from Nine Dragon Island, but not from a Sub-island, but from Nine Dragon Island's main island, and his strength should not be underestimated.

After all, Nine Dragon Island must have investigated the Lin Family's strength.

"This humble one, You Yun, is in the Middle Stage of Golden Core. I would like to invite Immortal Master Qian Mu to offer a gift together!" Seeing that Lin Shiming didn't answer, Immortal Master You Yun repeated again.

However, this time his words carried some impatience.

And Lord Nine Dragons' gaze was also on Lin Shiming.

Besides Lord Nine Dragons, the other three True Lords also looked over.

True Lord Xueshan didn't speak, so Lin Shiming had already made a judgment in his heart.

"Of course!" Lin Shiming took a step forward.

"Fellow Daoist Qian Mu, let's also add a prize to this Golden Core offering. If you win, you can get a seven-thousand-year-old sky soul fruit!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked. This sky soul fruit was one of the three main ingredients for the nascent soul pill.

It was extremely precious.

Lin Shiming hadn't expected to find the second main spiritual material for the nascent soul pill here.

"What treasure do I have to pay?" Lin Shiming asked.

"This treasure is very simple for Fellow Daoist Qian Mu, it's the golden dragon fruit tree you recently acquired!"

"This tree is very important to Nine Dragon Island. If it works, Shuangmu Island will definitely be Nine Dragon Island's most loyal ally!" Immortal Master You Yun said.

Lin Shiming gave a slight sneer at this. He didn't care about Nine Dragon Island's friendship.

After all, wouldn't you really worry about a Family that has been meticulously plotting against you?

"Unfortunately, this humble one does not have a golden dragon fruit tree, so this humble one cannot afford to lose!" Lin Shiming shook his head and refused again.

It was a semi-abandonment of the prize for the competition.

Although Lin Shiming really wanted the sky soul fruit, he didn't want to be bothered by Nine Dragon Island every day, and even more likely, the Jiaolong Clan would also secretly covet the Lin Family.

Now that the four Jiaolong Kings of the Jiaolong Clan had all fallen, the Jiaolong Clan also lacked golden dragon fruits.

"Fellow Daoist Xueshan, your Coral Alliance isn't exactly a monolithic entity!" Lord Nine Dragons spoke at this moment.

A faint Nascent Soul spiritual might appeared, pressing down on Lin Shiming.

At this, Lin Shiming's expression immediately changed drastically.

And very quickly, True Lord Xueshan stepped forward, and Lin Shiming's pressure vanished.

"Prizes cannot be forced. If Nine Dragon Island wins, they can choose one item from Coral Island's treasury!" True Lord Xueshan said.

Only then did Lin Shiming nod.

He had intended to take out the Autumn Blood Sword and turn hostile.

But now that True Lord Xueshan had spoken, he had no reason to refuse.

"Senior Xueshan, the prize money will still be provided by the Lin Family. At that time, Lin will personally list the Lin Family's treasure inventory and swear a Heart Demon oath for True Lord Nine Dragons to choose from!"

After Lin Shiming finished speaking, everyone nodded, and True Lord Xueshan could find no fault.

Lin Shiming said this because of his confidence.

If there were still some Cultivators in the Late Golden Core Stage that he wasn't confident about.

But among the Middle Stage Golden Core Cultivators, there were few who could withstand his attack.

After all, the Soul Fusion Secret Canon he had recently Cultivated, even Late Golden Core Stage Cultivators might not be able to resist it.

"Good, then it's a deal this time. However, I hope Fellow Daoist Qian Mu does not use any protectors or other external aids!"

Sure enough, after Lin Shiming agreed to the grand competition, Immortal Master Fengxing began to impose restrictions.

Lin Shiming was not surprised by this; he had long expected it.

Nine Dragon Island must have come prepared!

"Junior Brother Lin, be careful. This You Yun is not only a Dual Cultivator of body and magic, but also possesses several formidable Magic Treasures. He has even defeated Late Golden Core Stage Cultivators!" Beside him, Real Person Hongye also introduced to Lin Shiming.

There was considerable concern in her eyes.

Clearly, this Immortal Master You Yun was very strong and not as obscure as he seemed.

It was just that the Lin Family had not had contact with him before!

Therefore, Lin Shiming didn't know much about him.

"Fellow Daoist You Yun, please go first!" Lin Shiming made a gesture, and after the latter left, he also walked towards the arena.

Since he couldn't avoid it, he wanted the sky soul fruit.

He also wanted the great reputation!

From today onwards, he would break the record of Golden Core Cultivators challenging those of higher Realms.

And also put an end to the unrealistic fantasies of the people of Nine Dragon Island.
