Chapter 1091 Clash, Absorbed Forbidden Substance

Therefore, Lu Li did not think that Lin Feng's aptitude and potential were inferior to those of the martial god's outer disciples, and that his combat strength at the same level would not be much weaker.

After all, Lin Feng was someone who could break through his defenses. It wasn't that Lu Li was arrogant, but the fact that Lin Feng could break through his defenses when he used his soul intent showed that Lin Feng had a solid foundation in martial arts.

In comparison, he even felt that if Lin Feng were to further refine his advanced profound skills and have sufficient cultivation resources, he might not be inferior to the two senior brothers currently competing on the stage.

"Senior Sister Jiaojiao, are you perhaps trying to say that Martial God Mountain doesn't actually have an overwhelming advantage over top-tier sects in terms of disciple quality?"

Lu Li thought for a moment and asked.

"In top-tier fields, there is still an overwhelming advantage."

Lu Jiaojiao said, "But ordinary disciples are not that different, and it is also possible that a top-tier sect may cultivate a prodigy who is comparable to the top seedling of an extreme immortal sect."

"So where does the decisive difference lie?"

Lu Li was confused.

Lu Jiaojiao pointed to the arena, "Here, the difference lies in the foundation."

The Valkyrie knew more about the Divine Martial Continent than Lu Li. After a moment's thought, she chimed in, "Is it because of the difference in the strength of the top experts?"

"Junior Sister Xueqing really knows a lot about my Martial God Mountain, that's for sure."

Lu Jiaojiao glanced at the Valkyrie with a meaningful look. In fact, compared to Lu Li, the space prodigy who was under supervision, the true disciples were more curious about the Valkyrie.

After all, the other party was a visitor from another space, yet also a born martial artist with secret blood, which was enough to cause a sensation. Many fellow disciples expressed their bewilderment.

But when they asked the elders, they all remained silent. Some said they didn't know, while others seemed to know something but told them not to ask.

"The rules of this arena are quite profound, involving the demise and rebirth of true spirits, and are not the ninth-order power you mentioned."

Lu Jiaojiao continued, "Therefore, only the Extreme Dao Immortal Sect has the ability to build such a venue. Even if other top-tier sects have someone with attributes comparable to yours at the peak of the ninth level of space, they cannot create such a venue."

Lu Li was somewhat shocked after hearing this, mainly because he heard from Lu Jiaojiao that a top-tier sect had a peak ninth-level expert in charge, and he was not a newbie who had just entered the world, not to mention that he also had the survival manual given to him by Fatty Dragon.

The survival manual alone lists more than thirty top-tier sects. Doesn't that mean that there might be dozens of ninth-tier peak cultivators in the top-tier sects of the Divine Martial Continent alone?
Even such a powerful sect, with its peak ninth-tier experts, couldn't create such a venue. So what level of person could possibly use such rules?
Lu Li thought of the arena in the End Space again. Were the rules in those arenas the same?

"The Supreme Immortal Sects are all lineages with supreme taboos, aren't they?"

The Valkyrie spoke frankly from the side.

Lu Jiaojiao was also somewhat surprised. She hadn't expected this outsider with the Secret Blood Martial Art to know so much. She nodded, "That's true."

"So, does that mean I, the Lord of Martial God Mountain, have also reached the Supreme Realm?"

The Valkyrie asked, for there were things she didn't know.

Yesterday, before Lu Li, she met the Lord of Martial God Mountain, the legendary figure who had a close relationship with her family. However, she could not discern the other party's cultivation level, nor was it convenient for her to inquire about her elder's cultivation level.

"it's not true."

Lu Jiaojiao's head shake puzzled both Lu Li and the Valkyrie.

"Does Martial God Mountain still have Supreme Elders, Sect Masters, and the like?"

Lu Li couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, using the cultivation novels he had read as a basis for his reasoning.

Lu Jiaojiao gave Lu Li a strange look. "Since the founding of Martial God Mountain, there has only been one Mountain Lord. So how can there be a Supreme Sect Master? As for the position of Grand Elder, there have been several recorded changes. In a sense, the Grand Elder is the one who handles the regular affairs of the 'Mountain Lord'. You are really lucky to be able to meet the Mountain Lord."

Lu Li was surprised. Judging from his senior sister's words, the Martial God Mountain Master probably rarely managed affairs and rarely came out of seclusion. Even true disciples rarely received his guidance.

As soon as he and the Valkyrie arrived in this world, the Lord of Martial God Mountain was not in seclusion and even met with the two of them, which can be considered good luck.

"really……"

Hearing Lu Jiaojiao's words, the Valkyrie's attitude puzzled Lu Li even more, because he saw the Valkyrie sigh, looking somewhat lost about the future.

"So, our mountain lord isn't the ultimate taboo, but Martial God Mountain is still an extreme immortal sect, isn't it?"

Lu Li's thoughts weren't that complicated; he was simply voicing his doubts.

"Because... although the Mountain Lord has not reached the Supreme Realm, she can still slay Supreme Beings."

When Lu Jiaojiao mentioned this, her eyes lit up, and her admiration was evident.

Although Lu Li was somewhat shocked by what he heard, he didn't really feel it. After all, the peak of the ninth rank was an existence that was far beyond his reach. As for the difference between the supreme existence mentioned by the other party and the peak of the ninth rank, he had no idea.

But judging from Lu Jiaojiao's expression, he knew this must be something extraordinary.

"Besides..."

Lu Jiaojiao spoke again, glancing around as she lowered her voice, "Although it's just gossip, I've heard that Martial God Mountain has some forbidden secrets..."

Boom——

A sudden clap of thunder in broad daylight made Lu Jiaojiao shrink back.

Lu Li chuckled to himself. He hadn't expected his seemingly serious, muscular senior sister to have this side to her. It seems no woman can escape gossip. It's just a clap of thunder, what are you afraid of?
"Senior sister, please explain in detail."

Lu Li pulled Lu Jiaojiao, who wanted to leave.

"Oh, no, no, that's taboo. What's so good about gossip?"

Lu Jiaojiao shook her head repeatedly, her face not looking good, because she remembered another 'Wu Shen Mountain urban legend', which was that anyone who discussed this gossip would suffer a terrible fate.

Seeing that Lu Jiaojiao was no longer going to talk about it, Lu Li didn't press the matter further. He first clarified that he was not being nosy; he was simply interested in the profound history of Martial God Mountain.

At this moment, the two senior brothers on the stage also decided the winner, and the news was broadcast out. When they landed outside the arena, both of them were fully clothed and had no injuries whatsoever.

"How about we go up and give it a try?"

Lu Li turned to look at the Valkyrie, feeling a little itchy, because it had been a long time since he had fought a formidable opponent.

His first encounter with the Grand Priest in the Dragon Ball world was incredibly tense, but the situation was too critical, and he couldn't afford to revel in the battle. In the second fight, he became too strong, resulting in his overwhelming victory and the extermination of the Grand Priest.

Therefore, what he is most looking forward to now is to compete with other masters of his generation on the Divine Martial Continent, and the Valkyrie is one of the opponents he really wants to defeat.

"I don't want to take advantage of you. Let's talk about it when you catch up."

However, the Valkyrie glanced at Lu Li, said indifferently, and turned to leave.

Lu Li was momentarily speechless with anger. He thought to himself, "You only have two more stats than me. If it's really that bad, I'll use a high-powered Kaioken to play with you." But then he remembered that even the Valkyrie had a way to unleash her power, so he lost his temper. "She really is a cold and aloof junior sister. People from Martial God Mountain will never refuse a sparring proposal."

Lu Jiaojiao watched the Valkyrie's departing figure and said something, then casually patted Lu Li's shoulder, "It's okay, senior sister will play with you."

Lu Li's shoulder trembled as he was patted. "Is this okay?"

"Why not? Didn't I just say that our training ground can adjust attributes? Don't worry, I'll adjust my cultivation level to be the same as yours."

Lu Jiaojiao said with a smile, not as indifferent as yesterday. Clearly, as long as it involves martial arts combat, it will ignite her passion.

Lu Li became interested upon hearing this, "Come, come, junior brother, you can't wait to learn from your senior sister's skills!"

The Valkyrie, who had taken a few steps away, also stopped. She had heard about the effectiveness of the arena and had her eye on it, but since she had already spoken, she couldn't take it back.

So she could only watch Lu Li and Lu Jiaojiao walk onto the stage, wanting to see how much Lu Li had grown over the years, just to get a glimpse of it.

Upon stepping onto the arena, Lu Li discovered that the force field here was quite peculiar. He guessed that because the venue was not large, the density of space had been further increased, which meant that the momentum of people fighting inside would not be particularly outrageous.

The arena is only five kilometers in diameter, and the outer barriers are accessible and can be used as leverage while running, making it very stable.

The people of the Martial God didn't like to waste time, and soon both sides entered a state of battle. Lu Jiaojiao had seen Lu Li's battle in the Blood Killing Secret Realm, and she didn't underestimate Lu Li. She immediately took out her weapon.

Looking at Lu Jiaojiao's weapon, Lu Li's gaze was a little strange, because Lu Jiaojiao's weapon was of the Qimen type, a red ribbon, which was a rather feminine Qimen weapon, and it felt a bit out of place on this senior sister.

However, Lu Li was not the kind of person who judged people by their appearance. Judging from Lu Jiaojiao's demeanor, he knew that she was quite accomplished in this field, and Lu Li dared not underestimate her.

"Junior brother, please."

As the senior sister, Lu Jiaojiao had no intention of taking the initiative, so she let Lu Li attack first.

Lu Li didn't hold back either. He lunged forward, moving like a ghost, and was already close in an instant, slashing at Lu Jiaojiao's vitals with his sword.

The next moment, the red ribbon flowed like ripples on water, and a clever binding force deflected Lu Li's blade, causing it to land in empty space. At the same time, Lu Jiaojiao struck Lu Li's chest with her palm.

Lu Li's response was also quite strange, as if he had anticipated it. His body reacted naturally, narrowly avoiding Lu Jiaojiao's palm strike. The two figures crossed paths.

Despite his initial setback, Lu Li's eyes lit up, and a smile involuntarily crept onto his lips. "Interesting. It's been a long time since I've seen an opponent like this."

"Junior brother, you are just an ordinary person in my eyes."

Lu Jiaojiao's words were very direct, which aroused Lu Li's fighting spirit.

Lu Li grinned, revealing a set of gleaming white teeth. "In that case, junior brother will have to put in a little more effort."

Because of the arena's setup, he couldn't use any abilities that could increase his own attributes. The arena currently follows a rule that keeps both players' attributes at the same level, so Lu Li can only further improve his offensive power.

The next moment, Lu Li held his sword horizontally at his side, his clothes billowing as he entered a demonic state.

In an instant, black mist rose, and Lu Li's aura surged, as if he had transformed into a dark demon god in purgatory, his eyes sharp with fighting spirit, ready to devour anyone who dared to challenge him.

"I've been waiting for this move from my junior brother for a long time."

Lu Jiaojiao laughed heartily, "Let me see what's so scary about the power you possess!"

Having said that, she shuddered, her muscles swelled even more, and her crimson blood surged straight to the invisible dome. She lowered her body, like a tiger preparing to hunt.

Her red ribbon grew longer and longer around her, swirling behind her like a burning flame, sealing off any potential openings in her surroundings.

"Huh, Sister Jiao Jiao is actually taking this so seriously!? Is it really okay to bully the junior brother from the space like this?"

One of the fighters who had just been fighting on the arena said in surprise, clearly not optimistic about the outcome of Lu Li's battle.

The true disciples have different ages and their strength varies greatly. For example, the two of them have a combined attribute of only 296 points, which is weaker than Lu Jiaojiao's, and they are also tens of thousands of years apart in age.

"Brother Fei, how about we make a bet and see who wins? How about we bet a bottle of Miaoxianfang's Divine Intoxication? I bet on Sister Jiaojiao to win."

The other person said with a smile.

"Go away, who wants to bet with you? How could someone from the space possibly beat Sister Jiaojiao?"

The man laughed and cursed. He also knew about Lu Li's trip up the mountain and had even watched the competition in the Blood Killing Secret Realm.

However, he admitted that compared to the explorers who have ventured into the Divine Martial Continent over the years, Lu Li's overall quality was much higher, but he was still a bit lacking compared to the elite geniuses of their Extreme Dao Immortal Sect.

boom--

At this moment, a fierce clash broke out in the arena. Red and black clashed in a chaotic battle, with blades flashing and silk ribbons intertwining. Blood splattered onto the surrounding air walls, creating various patterns.

"Haha, what did I say? Senior Sister Jiaojiao is just too serious. How can she bully the new junior brother like this?"

The spectator laughed because he saw that during the third exchange, Lu Jiaojiao's grappling technique tore off Lu Li's arm, resulting in a large amount of blood being splattered.

"not that simple."

However, the Valkyrie, who had already returned, stared intently at the arena and said, "Senior Sister couldn't have done it without continuing her attack."

Sure enough, just as the Valkyrie had said, the next moment Lu Jiaojiao's legs broke off, the cuts were as smooth as a mirror, and thick black mist flowed over them.

"What a quick knife!"

Lu Jiaojiao didn't care. She laughed loudly and simultaneously activated her qi and blood to regenerate her legs.

But at that moment, she discovered something unusual: she had only intended to use her abundant blood and qi to shake off the dark substance remaining in her wound.

But as her blood and qi surged, the divine martial secret blood within her body began to thirstily rush towards those black substances, swallowing them all into her body.

Seeing this, Lu Jiaojiao was somewhat shocked, because the reason for detaining Lu Li was that someone said that the black substance Lu Li possessed was dangerous and illegal. If this substance were deeply inhaled into the body, what good would it do?

But then she noticed something was wrong. Her Divine Martial Blood had devoured the dark substance, but instead of causing her any harm or any ominous changes, it had simply made her blood and energy surge and become extremely strong again.

This feeling was as if she had just absorbed the Secret Blood Crystal and completed an enhancement of her bloodline origin, filling her entire body with energy.

what's the situation?
Lu Jiaojiao herself was also a little confused, because she knew her own body very well and found that there were really no side effects or scary things happening. She had just become stronger after absorbing the substance from her junior brother Lu Li.

She even felt that her bloodline was 'pure' than before.

After she came to her senses, Lu Jiaojiao's gaze towards Lu Li was completely different!
