The Treasure Generating Bowl - Chapter 1105
Chapter 1105 Swearing an Oath, Starting the Competition
“My time is limited!”
“I’ll only give you the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn!”
“You can choose to agree, or you can choose to die. Of course, I won’t kill you now, but there will always be a chance!”
“You understand!”
With his hands behind his back, Wu Zhanyun stood in the void, staring at He Pingsheng. His expression was calm, and no killing intent was revealed. However, He Pingsheng had no doubt that he had such ability and means.
“No need to wait half an incense stick’s time!” He Pingsheng took the black token out of his storage ring, but instead of handing it directly to Wu Zhanyun, he said, “I’ve tampered with this token. It will break with a single thought!”
“Also, don’t even think about killing me instantly. This thing is connected to me with my divine sense. If you kill me instantly, it will turn to ashes!”
Wu Zhanyun’s face suddenly darkened: “You’re trying to threaten me?”
“No… Senior, please understand, you are the one threatening me!” He Pingsheng said frankly, “Senior’s coveting of this token of mine is utterly despicable!”
“But there’s nothing we can do; in the Immortal Realm, strength reigns supreme!”
“I can give you this token without any problem. I don’t want anything from you, but I want you to agree to one condition!”
“Alright!” Wu Zhanyun breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing this and said, “Tell me your conditions. As long as they’re not too unreasonable, I can agree to anything you ask for!”
He Pingsheng said, “What I’m worried about is nothing more than killing and stealing treasures. As long as you, senior, swear an oath to the heavens that you will not harm me, I will present this token to you with both hands!”
“Otherwise, I will not accept it under any circumstances!”
Wu Zhanyun sneered: “In my entire life, I have never sworn an oath to the Heavenly Dao!”
He Pingsheng said, “If you don’t swear an oath, it means you will continue to attack me after taking the item. If that’s the case, since I’m going to die either way, I might as well fight to the death!”
“Just kill me!”
After saying that, He Pingsheng closed his eyes.
no way!
In such a disadvantageous negotiating situation, the weaker party is already at best able to save its own life.
For He Pingsheng, entering the top ten of Qiankun Immortal City through his own abilities would be no problem at all.
The key is to achieve a good ranking without attracting Wu Zhanyun’s murderous intent.
The better He Pingsheng performs, the less Wu Zhanyun will be able to keep him.
Therefore, this was the only option left.
“Hoo…” Wu Zhanyun let out a deep breath and said, “Alright, I hope you don’t try anything funny, or you’ll die a horrible death!”
“Heaven above, your disciple Wu Zhanyun swears today: After He Pingsheng presented me with the direct pass to the Sword Trial Competition in the Yu Emperor Star City, I, Wu Zhanyun, will no longer lay a hand on him. If I break this oath, may I be struck down by heaven and earth in an instant!”
Rumble…
Rumble…
As Wu Zhanyun swore to end the swearing, several bolts of lightning and thunder suddenly fell from the void.
This signifies that Heaven has acknowledged Wu Zhanyun’s oath.
“Is it okay now?” Wu Zhanyun stared at He Pingsheng with displeasure.
He Pingsheng waved his hand, extracting a wisp of immortal energy and divine thought from the token, and then respectfully handed the black token to Wu Zhanyun: “Please accept this, Deputy City Lord!”
“Okay!” Wu Zhanyun said, “Alright, you can leave now!”
Without further ado, He Pingsheng transformed into a streak of light and departed.
…
“It’s all my fault!”
After He Pingsheng returned to the temporary training ground, Chu Sheng apologized with a bitter expression, saying, “I should have just given this to Wu Zhanyun back then. Giving it to you now has only caused you more trouble!”
He Pingsheng smiled and said, “It’s nothing!”
Yes, that adds another layer of trouble.
But after forcing Wu Zhanyun to make a Heavenly Oath, everything returned to where it started.
At worst, we’ll just have to fight it ourselves and then face the methods of the White Cloud Immortal Sect and Kunwu Mountain!
“Junior Brother Chu!” He Pingsheng took out his token and said, “Could you please help me exchange this token at the City Lord’s Mansion? The competition is in ten days!”
I’m going into seclusion for a few days!
During his previous intermittent seclusion, He Pingsheng had basically completed the “Human Immortal Chapter” of the “Heavenly Extreme Longevity Transformation Method”.
However, it still lacks final consolidation and solidification.
Otherwise, other problems are very likely to occur when it is used.
He Pingsheng wanted to use these last ten days to consolidate and solidify his position.
In this way, even if you encounter some dark horses in the competition, you can handle them.
In particular, if the White Cloud Immortal Sect and Kunwu Mountain were to send high-level cultivators to assassinate him, He Pingsheng would have another skill to save his life.
“Alright!” Chu Sheng said, “I’ll be right there. You can focus on your seclusion; I’ll take care of everything!”
He Pingsheng shut down the formation of his dojo, checked it carefully again, and then began his secluded cultivation.
Ten days have passed in the blink of an eye!
In these ten days, He Pingsheng completely refined the Human Immortal Chapter of the Heavenly Extreme Longevity Method.
Now, by simply consuming a thousand years of lifespan, his cultivation level can be forcibly raised to a higher level, from the current ninth level of the Human Immortal stage to the ninth level of the Earth Immortal stage.
Of course, this state can only be maintained for a short period of two hours.
During these two hours, He Pingsheng’s attack power, defense power, and divine sense will all temporarily increase by one level.
With his ability to fight beyond his level, after using the Heavenly Extreme Longevity Transformation Technique, he will be able to fight against Celestial Immortals as a Human Immortal.
However, whether they can kill the celestial being within two hours is unknown.
Hopefully!
“Senior Brother He, you’ve emerged from seclusion!” Chu Sheng had been waiting at He Pingsheng’s door for a long time. As soon as He Pingsheng came out of seclusion, he immediately approached him and handed him a golden token: “This is the token I drew for you. It’s a very good number, a round number, the 1000th!”
“Alright!” He Pingsheng put away the token and asked, “May I ask, senior brother, do you know the rules of the competition in Qiankun Immortal City?”
Chu Sheng said, “I know, it’s just those rules, like not being allowed to use external objects during a fight, not being able to continue attacking after the opponent surrenders, and so on!”
“But this competition will be an elimination tournament!”
“You advance one-on-one; the loser is eliminated, and the winner gets promoted!”
He Pingsheng nodded: This is the fastest way.
The selection process was almost identical to that used within the Red Lotus Immortal Valley sect.
After one round of competition, half of the participants can be eliminated!
After several rounds, the top ten will be determined.
Seeing He Pingsheng emerge from seclusion, Solin also hurriedly walked over from the other side.
“Uncle-Master Solin!” He Pingsheng quickly bowed to her.
Sorin walked directly in front of He Pingsheng, waving his hand and saying, “Don’t bother with the formalities. You didn’t even report to me after you returned from the fourth level of the basic training. Instead, you made your senior uncle come all the way here to find you!”
“Hurry up and come with me, the competition is about to begin!”
