Chapter 13: The Great Heavenly Reef rises, and the spirit is captured and sent out.
"It's good that you're here. Tomorrow is the day of Heavenly Great Reef. I hope you can perform well.”Zhang Zhiwei said to Zhang Ziyang.
"Alright, I will work hard."
following day
At the back of Dragon-Tiger Mountain, apes and cranes were chirping. Auspicious clouds were flying everywhere. From time to time, birds were chirping. It was still an undeveloped wilderness. However, the Celestial Master Residence had specially built four huge fighting arenas deep in the back of the mountain. They could accommodate hundreds of people at the same time. They were specially built for the generations of Highest Heaven Reef.
After crossing the deep ravine, they arrived at the fighting arena. There were already many sects and famous figures from the Otherworldly Realm gathered around. There were no outlanders who were below the Houtian sixth stage among the participants. Any one of them was around the Houtian seventh stage.
Among them, Zhang Ziyang saw many familiar figures.
" Senior Brother Ling Yu."
"Junior Brother Zi Yang, you came at the right time. Let me introduce you. This is the successor of Marquis Wu, Mister Zhuge Qing.”
Zhang Lingyu then looked at Zhuge Qing and said,""Mr. Zhuge, this is the senior disciple of the old heavenly master, a true expert. I am just a wild Taoist on the mountain. There are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers on Mount Longhu. I, Zhang Lingyu, dare not call myself an expert with my meager cultivation.”
These words came from the bottom of his heart. A year ago, he had often heard his master compare him to Zhang Ziyang and often marveled at Zhang Ziyang's amazing cultivation speed. Now, a year had passed, and he didn't know how far his junior brother had cultivated. With his cultivation speed, it would be difficult to find anyone who could suppress him in the Heavenly Grand Ritual.
Zhuge Qing was stunned. She looked at Zhang Ziyang with a meaningful look, but she did not find anything strange. She only felt that the Taoist in front of her was ordinary. However, when she looked closely, she found that this person was full of mysteries.
"This must be the recently famous Immortal Zi Yang in the variant human world! "I've heard a lot about you. You must be an accomplished expert to be accepted as the last disciple of Master Zhang. I look forward to sparring with you at the Heavenly Grand Ritual!"”Zhuge Qing bowed to Zhang Ziyang and walked forward.
Looking at Zhuge Qing's back, Zhang Ziyang retracted his gaze and said calmly,""This Zhuge Qing is full of arrogance.”
Judging from his aura, Zhuge Qing's strength was only at Houtian ninth stage realm. However, his strength lay in his strange technique.
Currently, Zhang Ziyang had yet to meet anyone who could threaten him.
"After all, he is the descendant of Marquis Wu Zhuge Liang. It is said that in the past few decades, he is the only person in the Zhuge family who has control over all the marquis 'martial arts.”
At this moment, a white-haired young man walked forward, followed by two familiar figures.“
"Priest Ling Yu, long time no see." Zhang Lingyu looked at the young man.
"Senior Brother, go ahead! I still have something to do now, so I'll excuse myself and apologize.”After saying that, Zhang Ziyang turned around and left.
The army was victorious.
Zhang Ziyang easily obtained the qualification for the second time.
Longhu Mountain, the lake behind the mountain.
Two figures were sitting in front of the clear lake, looking at Zhang Ziyang. Lu Linglong didn't know if it was her imagination, but she felt a sense of loneliness from him.
Speaking of which, she had known Zhang Ziyang for nearly a year, but she did not know much about his identity. She only knew that he was Grandpa Zhang's disciple.
"Big Brother Zhang, can you tell me about yourself?”Zhang Ziyang lay on the grass and looked at the blue sky. The bits and pieces of the world that covered the sky appeared in his mind. His last unwilling gaze and the beautiful figure on the horizon.
An aura that seemed to come from an ancient ferocious beast spread out from his thin body. However, that ferocious aura disappeared in a flash and was immediately suppressed by him.
Lu Linglong's heart softened when she sensed the change in his aura. She comforted Zhang Ziyang softly.
"I haven't told you anything about me in the year we've known each other," Zhang Ziyang said with a smile.”
"If you don't want to say it, you don't have to.”Lu Linglong's tone was gentle and she had a peaceful smile on her face.
"But I have nothing to say."
Zhang Ziyang's heart was filled with ups and downs."I grew up on Mount Longhu and joined the Celestial Master Residence. Master asked me to pass on his teachings, but I'm not a person of this world.”
Without waiting for Lu Linglong's reply, Zhang Ziyang sat up and closed his eyes to enjoy the hard-earned peace while there was no one to disturb him.
Unknowingly, two hours had passed. Zhang Ziyang looked at the sky and estimated that the first round of the selection was about to end.
After returning to the square, a portion of the winners who had passed the first round of the selection had already gathered in front of the high platform. There were also some scattered people standing in the distance.
Among them, Zhang Ziyang saw many familiar figures.
"Winners, please gather."
Zhang Zhiwei was already standing on the platform with a kind smile on his face.
"Everyone, thank you for your hard work. The first round of the preliminary test has come to an end. There are a total of thirty-two winners. The following competition will be conducted in a one-on-one manner. The name you draw from the paper box will be your opponent.”
" Upgraded contestants, draw lots."
Then, the winners took out the paper slips from the cardboard boxes one by one. In the time for half an incense stick to burn, the drawing was over. Looking at the name on the paper slips, Zhang Ziyang was stunned.
Wang Bing? He was not unfamiliar with this name. In the original novel, this person called Wang Bing seemed to be the great-grandson of Wang Ai, one of the four major families in the capital.
However, the Wang Clan's family conduct was corrupt. This kid's personality had been spoiled by Wang Ai since he was young, and his personality was extremely distorted.
In the original play, Wang Bing had lost to Zhang Lingyu in the Heavenly Grand Ritual, but now he was his opponent in the next round. Could this be the butterfly effect? Did he bring about some subtle changes to the plot?
Coming back to his senses, Zhang Ziyang shook his head slightly. It didn't matter who his opponent was. Even if Shilao's great-grandson wanted to obtain the Heavenly Seal or inherit the position of the Heavenly Master, he would have to defeat him first. And he could simply continue to dominate this competition.
At this moment, Lu Linglong skipped over and said,""Big Brother Zhang, who is your opponent?”
Zhang Ziyang handed the slip of paper over. Lu Linglong's expression turned grave when she saw the name on it.
"Big brother Zhang, I heard that this Wang Bing has a violent personality. His great grandfather is one of the ten old men, just like my great grandfather.”
"Don't worry! It's just a small matter, what's there to mention!" Zhang Ziyang took the note and put it in his pocket. A look of contempt flashed in his eyes, and he seemed extremely relaxed.
"Who is your opponent?"
Hearing this, Lu Linglong immediately revealed a happy smile. "My luck isn't bad. I got the Weaving Golden Flower. I should be able to defeat her.”
