Legend of the Great Sage

r>However, he had already made up his mind to kill inside.
He thought, This bastard should have quite a lot of life-saving measures on him as a prince.
If it’s just a regular encounter, I might not actually be able to kill him.

“That’s correct.
No foreign items are allowed in duels.
The sumeru rings will be handed to an intermediary, and the victor will obtain everything.
How’s that? The wager is much bigger than the Asura Field.” Si Qing was afraid that Li Qingshan would change his mind, so he made the offer a little more tempting.

“Alright!” Li Qingshan acted like he had just made a very great decision.
He thought inside, Si Qing, oh Si Qing.
You can’t blame me if you’re just asking to be killed!

When Li Qingshan answered, uneasiness suddenly surged through Si Qing’s heart.
It felt as if he had made an incorrect judgement over something.
However, he immediately dismissed this feeling.
There was no reason why he would fail.

“Great General King, please lend us your Asura Field!”

“Please hand over your sumeru rings, as well as all of your possessions!” Yue Wuyang took out an Asura Field with a flip of his hand.
Sure enough, the patterning was different from Li Qingshan’s, and the bloody aura was even heavier.

“Yanying, you can serve as the intermediary,” Si Qing said to Gu Yanying.

“That requires agreement from both sides.” Yue Wuyang looked down.
The owner of the Asura Field normally served as the intermediary in duels.
Si Qing clearly did not trust him.

Gu Yanying nodded and said to Li Qingshan, “May I?”

“Sure.”

The two sumeru rings ended up in Gu Yanying’s hand, which she clenched firmly.
“It’s a deathmatch, but I’d advise both of you to stop when you should.”

Si Qing thought that Gu Yanying was talking to him.
He sneered gently and made no comment.

“I have always stopped when I should.” Li Qingshan smiled.
He would not stop when he should not either.

With that, he entered the Asura Field first.
Under the familiar blood-red swirl and within the heavy smell of blood, everything was dyed with a layer of red light.

The terrain there was roughly the same.
Mountains rose and fell.
Within the embrace of the mountains was an extremely expansive plot of open land.

Li Qingshan watched as Si Qing appeared in mid-air.
They stood at a distance, confronting one another.

Soon afterwards, the Unraging monk and everyone else appeared on the highest peak, overlooking the battlefield below.

“Yue Wuyang, who are they?”

With a flash of red, a dishevelled man appeared on the mountain peak, directly referring to Yue Wuyang by his name.
The aura he gave off indicated that he was an Asura King.

“A living man and a dead man!” Yue Wuyang said.

“A deathmatch! Interesting!” the Asura King said.

“Who do you think will win?” Yue Wuyang asked.

“There are actually duels with outcomes that even you can’t grasp?” The Asura King was rather surprised.
He scanned below and said, “If this were a bet, I’d put my wager on the kid on the right.”

Yue Wuyang was slightly surprised.
Li Qingshan was standing to the right.
He said sternly, “But he hasn’t even undergone the third heavenly tribulation.”

“What? Was I mistaken?” The Asura King knew nothing about Li Qingshan.
He had made the judgement purely based off his instincts as a warrior.
He gazed at Li Qingshan deeply.
“His aura is completely hidden, so how do you know he hasn’t undergone the third heavenly tribulation? Why do I feel he’s much more troublesome of an opponent than the kid on the left? Perhaps you’re mistaken.”

Yue Wuyang wanted to deny that, but he was unable to bring himself to question an Asura King’s instincts for battle.
Had he really mistaken instead?

“Li Qingshan, use whatever you’re capable of! I’d like to see where your confidence to face me comes from.
I heard you practise the secret cultivation method of the Chan Monastery of Deva-Nāga, the Demon Suppression Statuary.
Let’s see how impressive it is!”

“As you wish!”

Li Qingshan released his suppression over the demon heart.
Immediately, demon qi rushed into the air and gushed out in all directions like the tide.

He had not spent enough time building up “quality”, but from the perspective of “quantity” alone, it was quite a startling effect.

Si Qing was stunned.
He refused to believe it.

“Demon King!”

Yue Wuyang’s eyes narrowed.
All he saw was Li Qingshan’s dark-red eyes shining like cold stars within the surging demon qi as strange demonic markings covered his body.

Suddenly, he understood what was going on.
Killing a locust Daemon Commander within a locust swarm with ease was not something a Golden Core cultivator could achieve.
He definitely had not been relying on the Asura Field alone.
But how was this possible? He was only so old right now!

The Unraging monk was taken aback before chuckling aloud.
This disciple of his would always surprise him.

“The third heavenly tribulation.
He’s already undergone the third heavenly tribulation!” Yue Bing murmured.
Thinking about how he had said he wanted to test Li Qingshan out in the Chain mountains, only now did he realise how hilarious of a proposition that was.

“Li Qingshan, oh Li Qingshan.
So I’ve still underestimated you.” Han Anjun glanced at Han Qiongzhi again and saw how she was unworried.
He could not help but sigh inside.

“Do you think you can defeat me with just this?” Si Qing recovered from his shock, roaring as he turned into a black dragon.
He lunged towards Li Qingshan.

“Alright, we don’t even need to guess now.
The outcome has already been determined!” the Asura King said. 

“The difference in their strength isn’t great!” Yue Wuyang remarked.
Si Qing was even slightly stronger.

“You still don’t understand? I think you’ve spent far too much time as the Great General King that you’ve even forgotten about the very basics.
When wild beasts hunt prey, don’t they all hide themselves as much as possible? It was completely possible for the kid on the right to keep his strength hidden and launch a sudden attack when it mattered.”

Yue Wuyang became speechless.
Did he stop hiding because he had already achieved his objective and possessed absolute confidence in killing Si Qing here?
