The tense two days of selecting stone kings quickly passed, with the nine finalists still showing reluctance on their faces, but ultimately they each chose the stone they were most confident in.
After they had all chosen their stones, they all turned their gazes towards the person who had chosen first, and upon seeing him, their expressions darkened.
This guy was brazenly meditating and cultivating in front of millions of people.
"Ahem, Young Master Li Yifei, time's up!"
Elder Zishan, barely suppressing the urge to go up and beat him, reminded Li Beifei. Li Beifei woke up from his meditative state, his face full of refreshment, and said, "This stone king is indeed a stone king, worthy of being something condensed from the creation of heaven and earth. The surrounding heaven and earth spiritual energy is much purer than outside. Huh, what's wrong with you all? Why do you all look so listless?"
Li Beifei couldn't help but ask, seeing the other nine contestants looking so dejected.
Everyone's face darkened. They really wanted to say, 'Do you think we're you?' The process of selecting a stone king is extremely mentally draining. But in the end, they didn't say it. Yuan Tian had already experienced Li Beifei's verbal skills.
"Hmph!" Yuan Tian still snorted coldly.
Seeing this, Elder Zishan immediately announced, "Now that everyone has chosen their respective stone kings, let's begin cutting the stones!"
Everyone nodded. Only three origin masters who cultivated origin techniques cut the stones themselves. The others, including Li Beifei, needed the help of stone-cutting masters.
Li Beifei held the huge stone king in one hand and came to the old master who had helped him cut stones before, revealing a simple and honest smile, and said, "Old master, I'll have to trouble you again!"
"You kid!" The old master smiled. He was probably one of the few people who believed that Li Beifei wasn't relying on luck. He had helped Li Beifei cut stones twice, and each time Li Beifei made the request and he was responsible for cutting. Cutting out divine source in the preliminary round could be considered luck, but in the semi-final, he cut the origin mine into the shape of a hand according to Li Beifei's request, and as a result, there really was a hand bone inside the origin mine, and it was still a quasi-emperor's hand bone. This couldn't be done with just good luck.
"How do you want to cut it this time?" the old master asked. He was already prepared to guest star as a sculpting master, who told this kid to make increasingly difficult demands each time.
But Li Beifei didn't make any requests this time. He smiled and said, "Old master, just cut it however you want this time."
"Cut it however I want?" The old master's expression was strange.
"Yes!" Li Beifei said.
"If you cut it however you want, you can cut it yourself!" Although the old master said this, he still started to cut, but he didn't cut it randomly, but according to his years of experience.
"Hehe, isn't this giving you a chance to cut out an unparalleled treasure!" Li Beifei chuckled. For the old master who had been cutting stones all his life, he had cut stone kings, and many of them. Otherwise, the Ziwei Holy Land wouldn't have invited him to the Stone Fighting Convention as a stone-cutting master. But if he were to say that he had cut out an unparalleled treasure, then he probably really hadn't.
"I appreciate your kind words!"
After the old master finished speaking, he cut even more seriously. Seeing this, Li Beifei didn't disturb the old master. He had asked Old Six, and the skull inside this stone was different from the previous quasi-emperor's hand bone. The previous quasi-emperor's hand bone had gone through hundreds of millions of years, and its aura had long been integrated with the ore. If he cut it randomly, he might damage the quasi-emperor's hand bone.
Although Li Beifei didn't know why there would be an impact, Old Six explained that this was a matter of the general trend of heaven and earth. He was a layman, and he didn't understand.
But the skull hidden in the stone king in front of him had cultivated the Immortal Scripture. No matter how he cut it, even if he shattered the stone king, it wouldn't affect the skull inside.
Just as Li Beifei had said, he simply wanted to give the old master a chance to cut out an unparalleled treasure. Otherwise, he would have already sacrificed the Tianshu Sword and cut the stone king with a few clicks.
"Woof woof!"
"Dragon Lord, I seem to smell the scent of bones."
The black dog suddenly's eyes lit up, looking like he wanted to rush onto the field, but Li Wangba sat on him with his butt. At this moment, Li Wangba seemed to weigh a million pounds, almost crushing the black dog.
"Give me a break, turtle grandpa. Any bones are mine. You go eat poop!"
Li Wangba's last sentence was extremely vicious, and the black dog frantically shook his body.
"Hurry up and get off me. Damn you, a little turtle like you, Dragon Lord, I didn't even bother to eat back then!"
"Hehe, I ate quite a few real dragons back then. That taste, it was so delicious, it was simply unforgettable!"
"Your mother..."
"I don't have a mother. Your grandpa is just a dog..."
...
A dog and a turtle cursed at each other, saying all kinds of foul language, even more fiercely than a shrew cursing in the street, causing Bai Yifei and the others to quickly sit far away, with an expression of not knowing these two things.
"Buzz!"
At this moment, a subtle sound, amplified by the formation, spread throughout the entire venue. This subtle sound immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
"Look!"
Someone exclaimed, pointing in the direction they saw.
It turned out that a contestant's stone had produced a treasure.
"A holy fruit!"
"It's a pity. If the holy fruit were placed in the preliminary or semi-final, it would definitely be able to compete for first place, but placed in the final, it's too ordinary."
The audience shook their heads, all feeling regret. The contestant was also full of disappointment. Although he had made a profit from participating in the Stone Fighting Convention, he didn't care about that little bit of origin crystals. He hoped that the thing he cut out would be an incomparably heaven-defying treasure, even if it didn't ultimately belong to him. It was still cut out by his hand. This sense of accomplishment was much better than earning that little bit of origin crystals.
Soon, another half an hour passed, and another person cut out a treasure equivalent to a holy fruit, but still looked regretful and unwilling.
An hour later, as auras emerged, there were still four people on the field who hadn't finished cutting, and the other six had successively cut out their chosen stone kings. The lowest level was the holy fruit level, and the highest level was a holy tree similar to the Qilin holy tree that Li Beifei planted in the Human Dao Academy.
A living holy tree can continuously provide holy fruits, which is dozens or hundreds of times more precious than holy fruits or holy medicines.
And the remaining four people, besides Li Beifei, also included three origin masters.
At this time, mysterious and unpredictable auras appeared on their bodies, obviously operating origin techniques.
Their hands were like sharp swords, and with a wave of their hands, countless stone chips splashed. Among them, Yuan Tian was undoubtedly the most eye-catching. His golden hands danced, and at the same time as the stone chips splashed, he was also forming seals, as if sealing the essence contained in the stone king, so that the essence of the treasure would not leak out.
"Golden hands, if it's just for showing off, it seems pretty good!"
Li Beifei muttered, stroking his chin. The old master cutting the stone next to him almost couldn't hold the knife after hearing this. Golden hands are an origin technique divine power that countless people dream of, but when it came to Li Beifei, it could only be used for showing off!
The young people nowadays are becoming more and more incomprehensible.
At this time, Li Beifei's mind was no longer on the stone fighting, but was planning how to get the golden hands. It was estimated that it would not work to directly ask Yuan Tian if he would sell it. Not to mention that his relationship with Yuan Tian was not good now, even if it was good, people would not take out their housekeeping skills to sell.
It would be very unkind to rob directly. He only had a little conflict with Yuan Tian. It was not justified to directly rob people's supernatural powers. He was not the kind of demon who kills and steals goods.
"It would be great if they could take the initiative to find trouble with me. It would be reasonable and reasonable for me to counterattack and get the golden hands!"
"Rumble!"
Just when Li Beifei was planning the golden hands, the entire venue suddenly shook violently, instantly pulling Li Beifei back to his senses.
