116: Chapter 116 The Final Showdown

Yun Yifei did not rush to speak this time.

Instead, he observed carefully for a moment before saying,

"Silver Moon Flower, a Grade 3 Spirit Medicine, forty years old. It has a cold nature and belongs to the Water element. It can be refined into 'Moonlight Pill,' which can increase the Cultivate speed of those with Water-attribute Spiritual Roots. The best refining method is to add it directly to the pill..."

After he finished, he looked at Li Changsheng.

Li Changsheng glanced at the Silver Moon Flower and said,

"Silver Moon Flower, a Grade 3 Spirit Medicine, forty-three years old. It has a cold nature; it belongs to the Water element, but can also enter the Yin element."

"If refined with the power of moonlight, it can become a 'Moonlight Pill'; if refined with Yin-attribute Spirit Medicine, it can become a 'Mysterious Yin Pill'."

"The best refining method is not to add it directly to the pill, but to first nourish it with the power of moonlight for one night. Only after the petals have fully unfolded can it be plucked and used, increasing its medicinal efficacy by fifty percent."

Yun Yifei's expression changed.

This time, Li Changsheng mentioned that the Silver Moon Flower could be combined with Yin-attribute Spirit Medicine to create a 'Mysterious Yin Pill,' something he did not know and could not judge as right or wrong.

Even the referee was a bit confused this time.

"The best refining method for the Silver Moon Flower recorded in books is to add it directly to the pill."

"As for what Li Changsheng said—nourishing it with the power of moonlight for one night and using it after the petals fully unfold to increase medicinal efficacy by fifty percent—I am unaware of that."

Referee Tian Jun shook his head and said helplessly,

"The forty-three years Li Changsheng mentioned is more specific and very accurate."

"There are also records that combining it with Yin-attribute Spirit Medicine can create a 'Mysterious Yin Pill'."

"As for his claim that the Silver Moon Flower should be nourished with the power of moonlight for one night and used after the petals fully unfold to increase medicinal efficacy by fifty percent,"

"This old man is shallow in knowledge and unaware of this, so I cannot judge."

Below the stage, some murmurs arose.

"Where did this Li Changsheng read that? Can increasing medicinal efficacy by fifty percent really work?"

"Never heard of it. But I can try it next time."

"I see him speaking with such certainty and conviction; it shouldn't be wrong."

Tian Jun paused slightly and continued,

"Yun Yifei, I rule you lost this round. Do you have any objections?"

"No objections."

In the following competitions.

The third, fourth, and fifth stalks...

For every single one, Li Changsheng described them more accurately, more specifically, and more profoundly than Yun Yifei.

When the fifth Spiritual Plant was identified, Yun Yifei fell silent.

Some of what Li Changsheng said, even he could not judge whether it was true or false.

However, the points he made, based on what the referee and people from other Sects knew, were all accurate and flawless.

After a long while, he smiled bitterly, cupped his hands, and said,

"Brother Li, I have lost."

There was an uproar below the stage.

The Disciples of Medicine King Valley also looked at each other, unable to believe their eyes.

Yun Yifei, the strongest alchemy Genius of the younger generation of Medicine King Valley, actually lost?

Lost to a Disciple of the Qinglan Sword Sect?

The Disciples of the Qinglan Sword Sect erupted into deafening cheers!

Li Changqing's eyes were red with excitement, Shi Tiezhu grinned broadly, and Xiao Cao jumped around, her little face full of pride.

Yun Yifei walked up to Li Changsheng and looked at him seriously.

"Brother Li, where did you learn all this knowledge?"

Li Changsheng was silent for a moment and said,

"I learned it from farming."

Yun Yifei was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"What a great 'learned from farming'!"

He patted Li Changsheng on the shoulder.

"I'm convinced. If you have the chance in the future, come to Medicine King Valley to sit for a while; let's exchange ideas properly."

Li Changsheng nodded.

In the second match, Li Changsheng won.

The two semi-finals ended, and the final list for the showdown was released.

Li Changsheng versus Li Sha.

When the news spread, the entire Martial Arts Field was in an uproar.

"That farmer from the Qinglan Sword Sect actually made it into the finals?"

"He just beat Yun Yifei! Even the alchemy fanatic of Medicine King Valley admitted defeat!"

"But Li Sha is even stronger! The title of Blood Butcher isn't just for show!"

The discussions rose and fell, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the two people about to take the stage.

Li Sha slowly stood up and walked onto the central ring.

His pace was slow, and every step seemed to tread upon people's hearts, making them hold their breath involuntarily.

Li Changsheng also stood up and walked toward the ring.

"Brother Changsheng."

Li Changqing called out to him.

Li Changsheng turned back.

Li Changqing looked at him, wanting to say something, but only said two words.

"Be careful."

Li Changsheng nodded and strode toward the ring.

On the ring, Li Sha was already standing there.

Blood Butcher Li Sha remained in that same appearance.

His complexion was as pale as paper, his eyes were as blood-red as blood, and he stood there like a mountain, exuding a suffocating pressure.

Li Changsheng leaped onto the ring and stood still opposite him.

The two were three zhang apart, staring at each other.

Below the stage, everyone fell silent.

Not even the sound of breathing could be heard; there was only the sound of wind blowing across the ring.

Li Sha spoke, his voice hoarse and deep.

"Li Changsheng. Xu Sen said you killed six of our people, including one at the eighth level of Qi Refining. He wasn't good enough; today, I will get it back for them."

Li Changsheng did not speak, only gripping the green steel sword in his hand tightly.

The referee looked at the two, confirmed that both sides were ready, took a few steps back, and raised his hand.

"Clang!"

The gong sounded!

Li Changsheng drew his sword instantly, his figure like lightning, thrusting his sword toward Li Sha's throat!

This strike had no probing; it was a full-power attack right from the start!

Li Sha sneered, his figure moved slightly, dodging the sword!

At the same time, he flipped his right hand, and a pitch-black long saber appeared in his palm!

The blade was as black as ink, carved with eerie blood-red runes, exuding a thick, bloody aura!

A High Grade Magical Artifact!

It was countless times stronger than the one Xu Sen had!

"Clang!"

Saber and sword clashed, sparks flying!

Li Changsheng felt a massive force come from the sword, and his whole body was shaken back three steps!

He looked down and saw that there was a deep notch hacked into the green steel sword in his hand!

What immense strength!

He had no time to think, because Li Sha's second saber strike had already arrived!

The saber light was like blood, and the Saber Qi was like a tide!

Every strike carried a thick aura of Evil Qi; that Evil Qi was like a physical substance, eroding his Meridians and affecting his mind!

Li Changsheng gritted his teeth, doing his utmost to dodge, block, and counterattack!

He unleashed the Gale Style, Flowing Cloud Style, and Falling Thunder Style of the Qinglan Sword Art one after another!

He used the fierce fist power of the Green Wood Fist in combination with his sword techniques, alternating between them!

He activated the Talisman in his pocket, one after another!

But Li Sha was too strong!

His cultivation was two levels higher than Li Changsheng's, and his spiritual power was astonishingly thick!

His saber technique was ruthless and sharp, every strike carrying the determination to kill!

His combat experience was rich, and every flaw was seized by him!

At the fiftieth move, Li Changsheng's left shoulder was grazed by the blade, and blood splattered!

At the hundredth move, his back was struck by Saber Qi, tearing his skin and flesh!

At the one hundred and fiftieth move, his right leg was pierced by the tip of the saber, and he nearly fell to his knees!

But he still stood.

Still fighting.

Below the stage, everyone was stunned.

They watched the blood-soaked youth, watching him get beaten back time and again, yet charging forward again and again, a complex emotion surging in their hearts.

"This kid... is he throwing his life away?"

"He's injured like this, and he's still fighting?"

"Why doesn't he admit defeat?"

Li Changqing's tears were about to fall, but she bit her lip tightly, not letting herself cry out.

Shi Tiezhu clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white.

Xiao Cao had long since dared not look, burying her head in Li Changqing's arms.

Over at the Jinyang Sect, Chen Yuanba stood up, staring fixedly at the ring.

He had just lost to Li Sha and knew how strong Li Sha was.

That Li Changsheng could hold on until now was far beyond his imagination.

"This kid..."

Chen Yuanba muttered.

"Is stronger than I imagined."

Lin Jingyun did not speak, only clenched his fists.

Over at the Qingxin Pavilion, Su Qianxue watched Li Changsheng on the ring quietly, a flash of complex light appearing in her eyes.
