Traveling through time to cultivate immortality: a life and death test

Liu Xing hesitated for a long time, but finally gritted his teeth and released the dragon. Jiao Jiao flew to the top of the arena, with agile skills, graceful posture, and especially the beautiful pair of wings and reflective golden scales, which sparkled in the sun. Usually, people are afraid of monsters, and the thought of the bloody mouth makes them feel hideous and terrifying, but such a beautiful dragon actually makes them love it. Seeing the goodwill of the onlookers, Jiao Jiao was not only not nervous but also did a graceful somersault. Her movements were as smooth as a fish swimming in water. Everyone laughed and applauded. Most of the cultivators present had never seen a monster beast above the second level. They were very curious and were commenting on it. The cultivators in the early and middle stages of foundation building felt the powerful demonic energy of the third level monster beast, and believed that they would not be able to defeat it alone and could only run for their lives.

After Jiao Jiao finished showing off her figure, she looked down at the Tujia dragon on the ground, sensing its mixed energy and blood. In her eyes, it was nothing more than a piece of dirt, a dog or chicken. It dismissed her with disdain. Suddenly, her aura surged, and the power of her bloodline crushed it. The Tujia dragon's face changed drastically, and it actually crawled to the ground, trembling like a sieve.

The crowd offstage, bewildered, burst into laughter, mocking the Earth Armor Dragon's cowardice. Gou Yu was also taken aback. No matter how he called out to it, the Earth Armor Dragon refused to rise, constantly signaling fear. Gou Yu's face flushed crimson, and he gritted his teeth in anger.

"Hahahaha, the Earth Armored Dragon has become such a coward that he doesn't even have the courage to fight. How funny!"

"What a disgrace!" Some late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, unafraid of Gou Yu and the others, scoffed. Those who had previously been bullied by Duan Tiangen's gang felt a sense of pride. Su Yingying also beamed, delighted by Jiao Jiao's immense power, but her worry remained. Since the other party hadn't gained the upper hand in the beast fight, who knew what tricks they might pull.

A quarter of an hour passed, and the earth dragon still didn't dare to rise, nodding repeatedly as if begging for mercy. It had no intelligence, and instinct told it that it faced a noble being it couldn't disobey. It could only plead for mercy, not the courage to fight. Gou Yu tried every possible tactic: soothing, coaxing, threatening, even threatening death, but the earth dragon still hadn't the courage to fight. Reluctantly, he put it in a pet bag; leaving it out in public was a disgrace.

"Junior Brother Liu, you win!" Gou Yu said hatefully and winked at Sun Zecheng.

"Brother Gou, thank you for letting me do this! These 10,000 points are really easy to earn." Liu Xing smiled and bowed, not forgetting to stab him again. Then he put away Jiao Jiao and prepared to leave.

"Wait! Junior Brother Liu, the beast doesn't want to fight, let's have a sparring match!" Sun Zecheng jumped onto the ring and challenged Liu Xing.

"Brother Liu, don't go!" Su Yingying immediately grabbed Liu Xing and advised him not to accept the challenge. Liu Xing patted her hands to reassure her. The onlookers were also quite surprised. This guy was not willing to give in. There was a good show to watch. Seeing Su Yingying beside Liu Xing, everyone finally came to their senses. So that's how it was. This was the lackey snatching the woman for the boss. Some new disciples didn't understand what was going on and asked their acquaintances about the situation. Gradually, rumors spread and everyone finally understood the essence of the matter. Everyone became excited again. It seems that eating melons is also very popular in the world of immortal cultivation, Liu Xing sighed. He was too lazy to explain. This kind of thing would only make things worse if he explained it more. It was really a disaster caused by a beautiful woman. He was not afraid of Duan Tiangen's gang at all. What he was thinking now was that if he made a move, he would expose his strength and he had to squeeze as much value as possible.

"Senior Brother Sun is extremely powerful. I can't even pass the entry-level strength test. I am no match for you. I admit defeat." Liu Xing pretended to be timid.

"Hmph! Such a coward! Stay away from Junior Sister Su from now on!" Sun Zecheng cursed. Liu Xing's face changed drastically, turning pale and blue, as if he was extremely angry. However, he was still too scared to go on stage, his face flushed. Su Yingying, watching Liu Xing's frustrated expression, was also distressed and clutched his arm tightly.

"Junior Sister Su, Liu Xing is so timid, how can he be worthy of your golden branch and jade leaf? Only Senior Brother Duan can protect you." Gou Yu shouted loudly beside him. Su Yingying ignored his words and just held Liu Xing's arm tightly, afraid that he would act impulsively.

The crowd watching sighed. No one was optimistic about Liu Xing. Even if he could barely withstand Sun Zecheng's attacks, how could he face Duan Tiangen, the outer sect's foremost disciple? It was wise to let go early. A cultivator's life was a battle against the heavens; practicing safely and diligently was the only way to achieve success. Therefore, avoiding the consequences of karma was the wisest course of action.

"Why are you being so aggressive? I'm not afraid of you. I just don't want the treasure and magical instrument I worked so hard to obtain to be damaged in an innocent fight." Liu Xing seemed to be inspired by the other party pointing his sword at Junior Sister Su. However, he was clearly lacking confidence and made up an unconvincing excuse.

"Are you worried that the magic weapon will be damaged? That's easy. I'll compensate you if it's damaged." Gou Yu saw that Liu Xing seemed to be interested, so he helped him think of a backup plan. His goal was to get Liu Xing on stage and scare him this time so that he would have to leave Su Yingying in the future, and Junior Sister Su would have nothing to say.

"That's what you said. Give me 50,000 points first, and I will go on stage to compete with Senior Brother Sun." Liu Xing finally made a loud request, throwing out a condition that the other party could never agree to. It was obvious that he was trying to avoid the challenge.

"Hahahaha, are you crazy? Fifty thousand points, you can buy Senior Jindan's magic weapon!" The crowd burst into laughter, knowing that Liu Xing was trying to shirk responsibility, it was too obvious.

"Okay! I can give you 50,000 first, but there is a condition. If you lose, you have to return the 50,000 points to me!" Gou Yu said sarcastically. He had never seen such a cowardly person who retreated again and again. He wanted to cut off Liu Xing's retreat route if he gave up the fight.

"If I can't win and I have to retreat, then I will suffer a huge loss. How about retreating 30,000? I can't fight for no reason and then have to heal my wounds and change magic weapons in the end. It will be a huge loss." Liu Xing was still looking for excuses to avoid fighting.

"Okay!" Gou Yu thought, it's worthwhile to pay 20,000 to beat Liu Xing half to death. It can scare the scoundrels and make him spit out double the amount when Senior Brother Duan comes out.

"Pay first!" Liu Xing threw out his ID token, a determined gesture. Gou Yu only had a little over 10,000 points, so he used Sun Zecheng's savings. If that wasn't enough, he borrowed money from other friends, finally rounding up 50,000 points to transfer to Liu Xing.

"Now that the money has been transferred, Junior Brother Liu, step up and accept the challenge!" Gou Yu tossed the identity token to Liu Xing, urging him with a cold smile. He then sent a message to Sun Zecheng, telling him to beat Liu Xing to death and make him cry for his parents, so that he could be spared.
