Chapter 228 Gong Qing, the Examination of Tongtian Talisman
In a secret warehouse at the foot of Longhu Mountain.
There were many boxes of different sizes placed in the room, making it look very messy.
Under the dim light, many figures appeared in the room that was supposed to be empty.
They were dressed differently and held various weapons in their hands, and they did not look like good people.
"Tomorrow is the end of the Luotian Grand Ceremony, and it's also time for us to take action!"
In the corner, a short figure in a Taoist robe spoke.
"At that time, you guys go outside to seize the Tongtian Scroll, and I will work with Lu Liang to steal the memory."
"Lü Liang? Wasn't that kid taken back to the Lu family by Lu Ci?"
An old man in a green jacket asked at the head of the crowd.
"How could he come to Longhu Mountain?"
"How can it be impossible! Old man Yuan Tao, look, I am right here!"
The door opened, and a young man with a watermelon-like haircut walked in. Behind him, there were several tall figures following.
Yuan Tao looked at the person who came. Under the light, the person's appearance was clearly Lu Liang himself.
At this moment, he was skinny and had many scars on his body.
"It's really you. You actually escaped!"
He exclaimed, then asked curiously,
"The Lu family is heavily guarded. How did you escape when you fell into Lu Ci's hands?"
Lu Liang pointed at the people behind him and said proudly.
"I originally thought I couldn't get out, but fortunately, the headmaster sent a few seniors to rescue me."
Yuan Tao looked at those figures and suddenly realized.
"Xia Liuqing, the corpse demon Tu Junfang, the acting leader is really going to spend a lot of money on you!"
These two are both powerful masters in the whole world. It is no wonder that they were able to rescue people from the Lu family by working together.
"My target is Tian Jinzhong's memory. This guy is the most important."
Gong Qing said in a deep voice.
"Without him, none of us can access the memories."
"By the way, are there any strong players on the mountain right now?"
Yuan Tao turned around and asked.
"Among the ten leaders, only Lü Ci, Lu Jin, and the old Taoist priest are still on the mountain. Feng Zhenghao from the Tianxia Association and Wang Ai from the Wang family have already left Longhu Mountain."
Gong Qing talked about the information on the mountain.
"There is also a Jin Renfeng. I heard that he defeated Wang Ai."
"Golden Phoenix? Where did this unknown person come from?"
Yuan Tao frowned.
"Old man Yuan Tao, you are confused! Brother Shen Chong and I fell into that guy's hands."
Lu Liang interrupted,
"Brother Shen Chong even lost his life, so how can he not be considered a strong man?"
"Shen Chong is just a young man. In terms of strength, he is not at the same level as Wang Ai."
Yuan Tao said disdainfully.
"This rumor is too outrageous. I don't know where this kid came from, but he actually said that he defeated Wang Ai, one of the Ten Lords. How is this possible?"
"It's not a lie. I once heard Ding Shiman say that Jin Renfeng is a much stronger person than him."
Acting leader Gong Qingdao.
"Far better than Ding Shimaan?"
Yuan Tao looked shocked.
Even if the previous rumors might be false, what Ding Shimaan said personally could not be false.
"Could it be that Jin Renfeng really defeated Wang Ai?"
"Some of us saw it with our own eyes, how could it be false?"
Someone in the crowd shouted.
Some of them entered Longhu Mountain in disguise and witnessed what happened with their own eyes.
After hearing this, Yuan Tao believed it a little bit.
"Tomorrow, the old Heavenly Master will personally teach Zhang Chulan, so he will not be able to spare any time in the short term. The Lu family does not have much contact with the Heavenly Master's Mansion, so Lu Ci should also stand aside and watch things like this."
Gong Qing raised his eyes and looked at everyone.
"At that time, we only need to deal with Lu Jin and Jin Renfeng."
"Mr. Lu is easy to deal with! But what should we do with that golden phoenix?"
Yuan Tao squinted his eyes and said,
"Do we need to call the hero Ding Shiman to deal with Jin Renfeng?"
"Ding Shimaan will not participate in this operation. He has always been a self-righteous person. He never gets involved in dirty things like this."
Gong Qing turned his head and looked at a tall white man and a skinny old man.
"Barron, how about you and Elder Xia deal with the Golden Phoenix?"
The white man in camouflage licked the dagger.
"What I'm looking for is the excitement of the unknown. You guys are making that golden phoenix sound so magical, so I naturally want to see it for myself."
"There's no need to defeat him, just delay him for a while."
Gong Qing specifically explained.
"If that Jin Renfeng is really as good as Ding Shimaan, with your strength, a head-on confrontation would likely put your life in danger."
"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on this foreigner and won't let him do anything wrong."
Xia Liuqing took the initiative to speak, with a terrifying smile on his skinny face.
Gong Qing nodded, then looked at Yuan Tao.
"The matter of Tongtian Talisman still needs to be handed over to Elder Yuan and the other two Zhang Kuangs."
"Okay! Leave it to me, Master Lu!"
Yuan Tao agreed without hesitation, with hatred on his face.
"I have been waiting for this day for a long time. In order to kill him, I have prepared many magic weapons."
"It's a pity that the loan shark Shen Chong died, otherwise with him around, we would have a better chance of taking down Mr. Lu."
Lei Yan Pao Gao Ning, who was fat and looked like a Maitreya Buddha, said regretfully.
"By the way, since we want the Tongtian Scroll, why don't we start with Zhang Chulan? Zhang Chulan will win the championship tomorrow, so he should have a copy on him. Compared to Lu Jin, Zhang Chulan is obviously weaker and easier to deal with!"
A yellow-haired young man in the crowd asked in confusion.
"Are you stupid? After the award ceremony tomorrow, there will be the ordination ceremony of Mount Longhu. By then, Zhang Chulan will definitely be by the old Taoist priest's side."
A sturdy man next to him said,
"If you want to touch Zhang Chulan, you have to get past the old Heavenly Master. How many heads do you have to dare to face the old Heavenly Master?"
The yellow-haired young man said no more.
"Mr. Tu, your Three Corpses are extremely powerful. I hope you can support other battlefields according to the situation."
Gong Qing said to a yellow-faced middle-aged man,
"I won't assign you any specific tasks."
"Okay! I'll take care of it!"
Tu Junfang responded casually.
"As for the others, they just need to turn Longhu Mountain upside down and provide cover for us."
At this point, Gong Qing clenched his fists and said confidently,
"As long as the plan goes well, we will definitely succeed this time."
. . . . . .
The next day, at the Longhushan venue.
Jin Renfeng walked onto the stands, ready to watch the final award ceremony.
There were fewer people in the audience at this time, and it looked sparse from a distance.
Apparently many of the audience had already gone down the mountain and left.
There weren't many familiar faces in the stands, only the well-informed Feng Baobao and his friends were still there. People like Zhuge Qing and Wang Ye had already left.
Lu Linglong and the others were probably unable to attend the ceremony as they were on duty to monitor all the elements.
Jin Renfeng looked towards the center of the venue, where Lu Jin, Lu Ci, and the old Taoist priest were standing. There was also a Taoist priest holding a tray next to them.
"I guess the thing in that tray is the Tongtian Scroll!"
Jin Renfeng thought to himself.
As the ceremony began, Zhang Chulan walked up to Lu Jin.
"Zhang Chulan, come..."
Lu Jin greeted him, took the tray and handed it to Zhang Chulan.
"According to the agreement before the conference, this Tongtian Scroll is yours."
After the words fell, Lu Ci behind him looked unhappy, but did not say much.
Zhang Chulan looked at the tray, on which was a square book with complicated symbols on the surface. This was the Tongtian Scroll, one of the eight great skills that countless extraordinary people dreamed of.
After a long silence, he said,
"Thank you, Senior Lu, but I don't want it!"
Hearing this, everyone looked shocked.
"Ah? Don't want it? He won in the end and still doesn't want it? Is this guy a fool?"
"This Zhang Chulan is so funny!"
The audience was talking a lot.
Jin Renfeng chuckled, an expression of appreciation on his face.
"don't want?"
Lu Jin was extremely surprised. He had not expected this result.
"Senior Lu, I have suffered a lot because of a Qi body origin that I have never seen before. This Tongtian talisman is as famous as the Qi body origin. It is a treasure in the eyes of others, but in my eyes, it is just a trouble..."
Zhang Chulan smiled bitterly.
"You can give this skill to whoever you want. I don't want it anyway."
"For me, being able to return to Mount Longhu is already the highest reward."
"Hey! Kid, what's going on..."
Seeing his firm attitude, Lu Jin sighed. After hearing these words, he couldn't give it to her even if he wanted to. Otherwise, it would seem like he was intentionally harming her.
"Since you don't want it, I won't force you."
"Thank you, Senior Lu, for your understanding!"
Zhang Chulan smiled happily.
"Old Lu, now that you have taken out the Tongtian Talisman, what are your plans next?"
The old Heavenly Master asked.
"Since I promised to pass on the Tongtian Talisman, I have no intention of taking it back."
Lu Jin chuckled.
"Since the number one Zhang Chulan doesn't want it, I'll pass it on to the number two! It's impossible for both of them to not want it."
"So you have the same plan? I think you have the same idea."
The old Taoist nodded, then looked at Lu Ci who was standing beside him.
"Is Mr. Lu okay with that?"
"This Tongtian Talisman belongs to Old Lu, so naturally he has the final say."
Lu Ci's face was gloomy, but he did not say anything to stop him.
He knew that with the old Taoist priest and Lu Jin around, his opinion didn't matter.
"The Golden Phoenix enters!"
The Taoist priest who presided over the ceremony shouted loudly.
"What does this have to do with me?"
Jin Renfeng was a little surprised when he heard his own name.
Although he won the second place in the conference, he never thought that he would have the opportunity to obtain the Tongtian Lu.
In the original timeline, Zhang Lingyu was able to obtain the Tongtian Lu as the second place, which was the result of the operation of the old Taoist priest.
Considering the friendship between the old Taoist priest and Lu Jin, a mere Tongtian Talisman would naturally be no problem for him. But now it was him who did not have such good conditions and background.
However, unexpectedly, by chance, he got an opportunity.
With a step, Jin Renfeng walked out of the space gate and stood in front of several old men.
Seeing him appear out of thin air, Lu Jin exclaimed,
"What an amazing ability! You little monster are becoming more and more shocking."
"I wonder what Senior Lu wants to talk to me about?"
Jin Renfeng asked.
"Little monster, you just heard it. A good thing has happened to you."
Lu Jin smiled and said,
"Zhang Chulan doesn't want my Tongtian Talisman. I am thinking about passing it on to you. I wonder if you want it."
"If Senior Lu passes it on to me, I will definitely take it over."
Jin Renfeng smiled and said,
"After all, this is one of the Eight Wonders. Who would push away such a magical skill? Anyone who doesn't want it is a fool."
Zhang Chulan curled the corners of his mouth when he heard this.
He is the fool that Jin Renfeng mentioned.
"If you want, I can pass it to you." Lu Jin raised his eyebrows slightly.
"But I have to test you once."
"Please give me your orders, senior." Jin Renfeng said without hesitation.
"I heard that you have amazing talent and can learn the techniques of various sects at a glance. Do you have the ability to learn my Sanyi Sect's techniques?"
Jin Renfeng pretended to be puzzled.
"I wonder which of the Three-One Sects Senior Lu is talking about?"
Although he knew Trinity very well due to his memories of his past life, he couldn't show it easily in front of Lu Jin.
"That's it!"
Lu Jin shouted softly, and white energy spread all over his body.
In an instant, his entire being underwent a strange change.
The skin becomes white and the blood becomes lighter.
In Jin Renfeng's perception, the old man in front of him seemed to have even his flesh and blood transformed into true Qi.
"Boy, look carefully and give me an answer, can you learn it?"
Lu Jin said seriously,
"As long as you can learn it, this Tongtian Lu will be yours."
"So this is the method!"
Jin Renfeng nodded and said in a relaxed manner, "There is no problem in mastering it."
As he spoke, he began to use his true Qi.
White light ripples on the body surface.
"Boy! Stop now. My third level of Reverse Life is no joke. If you are not careful, you will be seriously injured!"
Seeing Jin Renfeng using his profound skills, Lu Jin hurriedly tried to stop him.
He knew the danger and difficulty of reverse rebirth, so he never thought that the other party could learn it in one go. All he wanted was an answer.
However, he never expected that this reckless boy would directly use the third level of reverse life, leaving him no time to even explain a few words.
As the white true energy filled the air, Jin Renfeng's skin quickly turned into the color of white jade, and all the changes were almost exactly the same as Lu Jin's.
It's just that because he hasn't reached the second level yet, the blood all over his body is still red, and his skin looks darker from the outside.
Seeing this scene, Lu Jin was shocked. This was clearly a sign that the first level of Reverse Life had been completed.
"No, you learned it just by taking a look?"
Lu Ci behind him looked shocked.
He and Lu Jin are contemporaries, and he has witnessed the glory of Trinity School in its day.
Therefore, he was well aware of the difficulty and power of the third level of Reverse Rebirth. In his opinion, such a magical skill was by no means a juggling trick that could be easily learned.
However, the boy in front of him broke his cognition.
"It seems that we have underestimated this young friend's talent!"
The old Taoist priest chuckled.
"Good boy!"
Seeing that Jin Renfeng really used the third level of Reverse Rebirth, Lu Jin laughed a few times, unable to suppress the joy on his face.
"Good boy, your talent is truly incredible. If you didn't have a girlfriend, I would have wanted to recruit you to be my grandson-in-law."
The practice of the three levels of reverse rebirth is fraught with difficulties, with each step presenting a hurdle.
Not only is there a risk of life when breaking through the barrier, but even entering is extremely difficult.
Although the risk was reduced after his modifications, the difficulty of practice increased dramatically.
As a result, he accepted many disciples over the years, but none of them succeeded in cultivation.
Now that he finally saw the hope of inheriting the martial arts skills, Lu Jin couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised.
Jin Renfeng smiled faintly and didn't take the old man's joke to heart.
"Okay, if you can learn it, it means you have passed my test, and the Tongtian Lu will be yours."
As he spoke, Lu Jin handed him the book on the tray.
"As for the third level of reverse rebirth, I will write a secret manual for you someday. If you have any questions in the future, feel free to come to me. I will tell you everything I know."
"My method is the unique skill of the Sanyi Sect. You can use it at will in the future. Even if you establish a new sect, you can teach it to your disciples at will. As long as you don't pass it on to some evil villains, I will never restrict you."
For Lu Jin, the Tongtian Talisman is secondary. The most important thing is to be able to pass on the three levels of Nisheng.
"Then I will be disrespectful to refuse."
Jin Renfeng chuckled and stuffed the book of Tongtian Lu into his pocket.
There is no reason to give away the eight unique skills that I picked up for free.
Zhang Chulan didn't dare to accept it because of his lack of strength, but he didn't have this concern.
