Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World-Chapter 152: Nice to Meet You. My Name Is Qin Yi
Chapter 152: Nice to Meet You. My Name Is Qin Yi
He had seen this big man in the gambling house. The big man said excitedly, "You two want to bet? I will witness and guarantee the fairness!"
Qin Yi wanted to laugh a little.
Myriad Tao Immortal Palace was essentially a gathering place for fanatics. Those who were still watching at first couldn't help but show up once their obsession came into play, which was a bit cute.
This time, even the other bystanders couldn't stay any longer. They all showed up one after another and blamed the big man, "Old Du, you can't do this..."
The big man spat and said, "Who wanted to come down after smelling the aroma of wine?" frёeωebɳovel.com
An old man with rosacea couldn't help but say, "I didn't show up like you do!"
"That's because this shit wine isn't enough to arouse your desire!"
While the two were quarreling, Qin Yi looked at the others.
Taoist, mortal, chef, and craftsman... This Myriad Tao Immortal Palace really includes various tao.
Not to mention anything else, what caught Qin Yi's attention the most was a young man.
He dressed in white with a long sword on his back. He stood coldly on the edge of the cliff with an upright figure and an awe-inspiring sword intent. By the way, does Myriad Tao Immortal Palace also have the way of sword?
Unfortunately, it would be nice if this figure was a girl.
Because this was the image that many people wanted to have... If given a choice, Qin Yi also hoped that he had such an image. Like the handsome wandering sword cultivator... But he had a mace instead. He didn't dare to think about what his nickname would be in the future...
While Qin Yi was looking at the others, Xi Xiangzi asked impatiently, "Does Junior dare to accept this bet?"
Qin Yi sighed, "You’re from the Medical Sect, why are you betting?"
If he really wanted to bet on a fight, Qin Yi was really not afraid of Xi Xiangzi. Xi Xiangzi was at most at the Piano Heart Stage level 5. But Qin Yi could fight evenly against Meng Qingying who had reached the peak of the Piano Heart Stage.
Do you really think that all the opponents you meet are casual cultivators? Is Myriad Shinra Sect worse than your Myriad Tao Immortal Palace?
Xi Xiangzi smiled and said, "Is Junior afraid now?"
The big man from the gambling house also said, "If you're a man, just take the bet!"
Qin Yi turned to the big man, "Se... Senior Du, right? Betting is about fairness, right? I bet big, one copper coin, and you bet small, ten taels of gold. Is this kind of betting valid too?"
The big man was a little embarrassed. Of course, this kind of bet wasn't valid… He also knew what Qin Yi was talking about. Compared with the alchemy cauldron, those seeds were indeed of lower value. It was not a fair bet.
But he was really itching for the rare inter-sect bet, so he grabbed Xi Xiangzi and said, "If you want to bet, put more chips. Are you a fucking Piano Heart Stage level 5 afraid of a rookie who just advanced to the Piano Heart Stage?"
With everyone staring at it, Xi Xiangzi took out another flower under the pressure. "Add another flower. Those who know can tell this is a good stuff."
None of the people present really understood medicinal material, and Qin Yi couldn't recognize its use, but Liu Su yelled, "I want it, I want it!"
The big man couldn't recognize the flower, so he asked Qin Yi, "What does Junior Qin think?"
"Okay." Qin Yi sighed, "I'm afraid my reputation won't be good to fight a senior right after I joined the sect."
"Why fight?" The sword cultivator in white suddenly said, "You are both at the Piano Heart Stage, which means you can solidify spiritual force. Just a practice match will do. Fighting to the death is pointless."
The big man surnamed Du glanced at him as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't. He turned around and asked, "What do you two say?"
Xi Xiangzi smiled and said, "I'm fine with it. Let's shake hands without any aid. Whoever cries out in pain first loses, how about that?"
Qin Yi was speechless, "So this means that in addition to spiritual force, my own strength also counts?"
Xi Xiangzi looked at his delicate and thin appearance, and his eyes showed a hint of contempt, "Of course it counts."
Qin Yi sighed, "Okay. I hope Senior can be gentle. I'm afraid of pain."
The big man took out a piece of paper and said with a smile, "This is my sect's betting contract. This match has been recorded. Even those who have higher cultivation than me can't invalid it now. It will take effect immediately."
The betting contract ascended to the sky after a flash. Qin Yi was surprised to find that he was bound. The only thing he could do was shake hands with Xi Xiangzi.
Xi Xiangzi was the same. He had already extended his hand.
Qin Yi found this betting contract a bit interesting. It seemed to be able to take effect across realms. If this was used well, it could have invincible crowd control, but the conditions were harsh to achieve.
The two hands quickly grasped each other, and the spiritual force of both sides began to appear. At first glance, they were evenly matched.
Spiritual force was originally a force of nothingness. It had no power to harm the enemy. In addition to changing the physique, delaying aging, etc., the most important functions lie in controlling objects, summoning, changing, etc. This was the biggest difference between the martial arts true qi.
When reaching the Piano Heart Stage, spiritual force could barely be released to attack people. This kind of power was also weak, which was suitable for competing with fellow apprentices.
Seeing that the two of them were evenly matched, the big man approached the sword cultivator in white and whispered, "You guys are too shady. Junior Qin Yi is overconfident, which made him accept this bet despite a huge disparity between cultivation levels. But aside from spiritual force, Xi Xiangzi has used various body building medicines. In terms of strength alone, I probably lose against him… You let them compete in physical strength despite the huge cultivation disparity?”
The sword cultivator in white said calmly, "Who knows whether Junior Qin has trained physically? After all, we laymen cannot tell the level of martial arts through different systems."
What he meant by this was that he was not a sword cultivator, but Qin Yi couldn't hear it at this time.
The big man was speechless and said, "How old is he? He is already a genius to reach the Piano Heart Stage. How can he practice martial arts too? You guys are cheating."
The sword cultivation in white smiled and said, "Don't make it sound like your gambling house is really fair. Isn't it your way to cheat?"
The big man raised his eyebrow and said, "Hoh, you actually know my tao."
The sword cultivator smiled and said, "I just want to see how Ju Yunxiu will respond to this kind of gambling scheme to steal the treasure. If she won't make trouble because of this, then it is easy to deal with her."
The big man also laughed. He had the same idea too.
Just as the two of them were chatting in low voices and not paying attention to the handshake there, shouts of surprise suddenly sounded from around them.
The two of them quickly looked up, only to see that Xi Xiangzi's face turned purple, his veins were popping out, and he was sweating heavily. His face was twisted in pain. He was holding on not to cry out.
Qin Yi was asking with great concern, "Senior, what's wrong with you? Should I be a little gentle?"
Xi Xiangzi felt pain and shame. He couldn't hold it anymore and screamed.
The onlookers couldn't help but turn their heads.
With this scream, the seeds and flowers placed on the table by Xi Xiangzi flew into Qin Yi's ring automatically.
Seeing Qin Yi's concerned and innocent look, the sword cultivator in white and the big man were stunned.
Xi Xiangzi is at the Piano Heart Stage level 5, and he has used various bodybuilding medicines, but he can't handle this delicate young boy? Is he cheating his cultivation all along?
He either has a very strong hidden skill that covers up the real cultivation or he is indeed practicing martial arts. Maybe martial arts is his main combat strength!
Competing with grip strength is his strongest power. I’m afraid he was laughing so hard in his mind. He even put up a pure and innocent look...
Who is scheming against whom?
The big man suddenly remembered Qin Yi's performance in his gambling house, and he reacted with relief. He smiled and patted the sword cultivator on the shoulder, "Actually, I have long thought that this Junior should join your sect."
Sword cultivator's cheeks twitched. He stepped forward and bowed, "I'm glad to meet you. I'm Zheng Yunyi."
Qin Yi grinned, "Nice to meet you. My name is Qin Yi."
Everyone on the scene had met him. They never expected a muscle man to join the piano, chess, calligraphy, and painting sect. That was still acceptable, but this scheming Junior didn't have the artistic vibe at all.
He must have joined the wrong sect!
