Chapter 269 Return
Liu Jun smiled and released the person, staring blankly at his own hand for two seconds before letting it hang down as usual, and walked steadily out of the arena.
This competition lasted even longer than the preliminary rounds, taking nearly a month to complete.
It's said to be a three-day rest period, but those who finish the competition first will actually get more daytime rest. The three days are just a time for coordination and integration between rounds of competition.
Fortunately, Liu Jun's second round of matches started earlier, giving him more time to rest and adjust. As a result, he was able to start the third one-on-one match much earlier.
Moreover, there was no break in the third round of competition. After winning the previous round, you immediately had to draw lots for the next round. After the first round of the third round was over, the second round of competition would begin immediately.
The preliminary rounds and the second round had already eliminated most of the participants, leaving only a hundred or so in the third round. The arena was also reorganized into two separate venues.
The competition is divided into two groups of four, and it ends quickly. But even though it ends quickly, it can take at least four or five days to finish. The last person to go on stage might not even have a chance to catch their breath before having to go up and fight again.
The Immortal Cleansing Gathering is just that unfair.
Liu Jun's opponent this time is a True Immortal of the third level. Should we say she is lucky or unlucky?
In the last battle, she advanced to the tenth level of Earth Immortal. Among those present, besides her, there was only one other person who could reach this round at the Earth Immortal level.
Of the nearly one hundred people who advanced, only two were at the Earth Immortal level. This means that she would be facing either True Immortals or Golden Immortals. With her Earth Immortal level 10 power, dealing with so many people was truly exhausting.
Every medicine has its side effects, and relying on taking medicine all the time isn't a long-term solution. Besides, this pill... has quite a few side effects. Taking too much can cause you to lose control of your killing intent and go berserk.
To get into the top ten, he would have to eat at least three more times, and Liu Jun was afraid he wouldn't be able to control himself.
Forget it. The Immortal Cleansing Assembly is held once every thousand years. She has now seen what a true immortal is like and what the difference is between the two. It's only a thousand years. She can wait that long.
"I surrender."
Before the fight even started, the other side conceded defeat. Looks like another one who just coasted up. How boring.
The person opposite him left the stage with little interest, and Liu Jun also walked off with a calm expression.
Since there were no follow-ups, they were happy to remain spectators.
Is it a battle between true immortals and golden immortals, or just the carefree joy of being free? Watching them fight on the stage is quite entertaining, and before I knew it, I was watching their final match.
Unsurprisingly, the few Golden Immortals who remained in the end were the same few.
The arena is surrounded by a barrier, so the fight between Golden Immortals will not harm the innocent outside. As for those inside, they will not die, but they may be crippled.
Liu Jun was glad that he hadn't pushed himself to the end. Even if he hadn't become a cripple, at that intensity, the chances of him going insane from taking drugs were much higher.
Let's wait until next time.
The final match will eventually come to a conclusion, and it's time for the audience to leave. This ninety-nine heavens was, in the end, only a brief stay.
One last look at this magnificent celestial palace. As a celestial envoy, she could stay here, but she did not want to serve others in such a capacity. Even if she came, she should be the master of the celestial palace.
Chenxing Mountain
"My lord, how is it?"
"I gave up."
"what?!"
Geng Wuji's statement is unbelievable.
Liu Jun smiled calmly: "With my strength, it's not impossible to force my way there, but the price would be too high and not worth it. However, after a thousand years, next time, I will go to the ninety-ninth heaven."
"Your Excellency must have had your reasons for doing this."
He would never disobey her. Since the adults said to wait a little longer, he would wait with her.
……
Life returned to its usual peaceful and ordinary routine. Liu Jun would sometimes go out to find resources, but most of the time he was still cultivating.
The mountain demons come and go, some more, some less. As the sun and moon change, what remains unchanged is always that courtyard on the mountaintop, and those two people.
Six hundred years later, the little snake's embryo finally began to move, and Liu Jun's cultivation level finally reached the fourth stage of True Immortal.
On this day, the rain was continuous and the sky was overcast. The barrier only protected against external enemies and did not block external objects. The mountains had been raining for several days, and the dampness was filled with the smell of mud and water. It was not unpleasant, but the rare sight made people feel a little happy for no reason.
"Click"
"This is... the embryo of a small snake?"
Geng Wuji chimed in, "It seems to be its movement."
Since the day the little snake's soul was placed into the dragon's body, the body degenerated into a fetus and has remained silent ever since.
The little snake used to love absorbing spirit stones, but Liu Jun didn't have any now, so he piled some mild tonic herbs around it.
The medicinal herbs disappear every now and then, which means the method is effective. I didn't expect that after so long, there would finally be some results.
The fetus, about the size of a person, placed inside the room, seemed to be about to hatch, but all that was heard was a "snap" and nothing more.
"Did I hear wrong?"
After a while, the fetus seemed to move again, and there was another cracking sound. This time, a crack was clearly visible on the surface of the fetus, and Liu Jun's eyes lit up immediately.
"It seems it's about to take human form. Let's keep our distance."
"Why?"
Liu Jun paused: "Aren't you Yinglong? Can't you sense this thing that's about to transform?"
Geng Wuji then came to his senses and sensed the life within the fetus through his bloodline, and then withdrew his hand in surprise.
"This is... a dragon?"
Liu Jun sighed helplessly, looked around the room, and said, "Forget it, let's not let it ruin this place. Let's move it outside."
"But it's still raining outside..."
Liu Jun was speechless: "Dragons love water, so this rain might have been brought down for them."
Geng Wuji nodded slowly: "That makes sense."
"Alright, if you keep talking nonsense, we'll blow this house up. Let's move it out first."
The human-sized embryo was gently moved to an open area in the mountains. After confirming that there were no living creatures nearby to prevent it from harming the surroundings when it transformed, it flew a long enough distance away. Just as it was about to turn around to take another look, the embryo suddenly turned into a bright light and exploded.
The ethereal light and radiance gathered together, surrounding an object as it rose higher and higher until it began to take shape.
From within the ball of light, a dragon-like creature slowly flew out and circled the sky, looking at everything in the world with curiosity, as if it were a newborn.
"It seems that the transformation was successful."
"Sir, do you think it still remembers you?"
"No rush, let it fly for a while longer, and we'll know soon enough."
After an unknown amount of time, the dragon finally flew enough and noticed the two people who had been watching it. It then turned around and flew in front of the two people, looking at the two tiny humans with a bewildered expression.
After a while, it suddenly disappeared from its dragon form and transformed into a human, standing in front of the two.
Geng Wuji quickly changed his clothes so that he wouldn't be impolite in front of the adults, while the latter curiously looked at the clothes he was wearing.
After a long while, he finally looked up at Geng Wuji and squeezed out two words in very stiff voice: "Thank...thank you..."
Then she turned to look at Liu Jun beside her, tilting her head and staring at her with a puzzled look in her eyes.
“You…I think I’ve seen you before…You are…you are…”
Liu Jun looked at him calmly, and seeing his reaction, simply called out, "Little Snake."
Jiaolong was taken aback. This name sounded so familiar. It was as if someone had always called him that before.
who is it?
I'm about to remember!
The dragon covered its head with both hands, its expression one of extreme pain.
Liu Jun's brows furrowed with worry, and just as she was about to reach out to help him, the dragon vanished from sight in the blink of an eye.
"Sir, do you want to chase me?"
"It's alright. He can't leave Chenxing Mountain. Once he remembers, he'll come looking for us. Let's go back."
"Ah."
The dragon escaped, but it didn't know where it went.
He simply clung to the fetal shell that had been protecting him, curled up in a secluded corner where no one knew him. Rain was pouring down on him, but he was oblivious, his eyes filled with endless confusion.
“What…are these……”
What exactly are these things, these memories?
So confused, my head hurts so much, should he remember, those things, those...?
So many fleeting moments, it seems he wants to... seize them, or push them away?
It hurts so much, his head feels like it's going to explode!
"who am I?"
Who am I?!
