Chapter 401 This Guy Did It
Gradually, the aroma spread, and the hot oil dripped onto the bonfire, making a crackling sound.
After eating and drinking, Lu Ye continued to read until the second half of the night, and then he closed his eyes and took a nap until dawn.
The situation remained the same on the second day.
This was the most boring fight Lu Ye had ever experienced. Until now, he had not seen his opponent, and Yiyi had not found the opponent's trace.
But he knew that if he continued to waste time like this, he would definitely win. He could eat something at any time to replenish his physical strength, but Ghost Shadow could not. If the opponent wanted to hide his body, he could only hide it all the time. Any other action would expose his whereabouts.
However, Lu Ye was not prepared to continue to waste time. For a cultivator like Ghost Shadow, it would be no problem to not eat or drink for a few days. Ghost Shadow was willing to waste time, but he was not.
After closing the book in his hand and standing up, Lu Ye casually took out a few array flags from the storage bag and hit them in all directions. He first used the array flags to build the basic framework of the array, and then urged the spiritual power to improve the internal structure of the array. In a short while, a formation covering nearly 100 feet was formed.
[An old book friend who I have known for ten years recommended me a book-chasing app! It is really useful. I use it to read and listen to books while driving and before going to bed. You can download it here. ]
This array is not very useful. It is just a simple warning array. Compared with other arrays, this array is undoubtedly much simpler to arrange, and the range it can cover is also large, and at the same time, it consumes very little spiritual power.
The ghost shadow has been hiding and not showing up. Lu Ye has no way to deal with him. The challenge of the Lingxi Ranking is like this. The heavenly opportunity will maintain the most basic fairness. The rest is the competition between cultivators.
No one says that the competition of patience is not a competition.
That is to say, the battlefield, which occupies a radius of more than ten miles, is covered with a warning array. Lu Ye does not believe that he can't find the trace of the ghost, unless this guy is also proficient in arrays and knows how to avoid the monitoring of the array.
After one warning array is arranged, Lu Ye starts to arrange the second one, followed by the third, the fourth...
Lu Ye has been arranging the array for the whole second day. Fortunately, he bought enough array flags from the Tianji Business Alliance before, otherwise he really can't hold on. After a whole day, the array he arranged has covered more than half of the area of the battlefield.
The ghost has not shown up yet, perhaps he still has a glimmer of hope, hoping that Lu Ye does not have enough array flags in his hand and cannot cover the entire battlefield with arrays. In this way, he still has room to hide.
Lu Ye suddenly realized that he had overlooked this point, and simply took all the array flags out of the storage bag and placed them at his feet.
Hiding in the dark, the ghost shadow looked at the number of formation flags and knew that he could not hide any longer. If he did not find an opportunity to kill Lu Yiye quickly, he would definitely be exposed tomorrow.
After a moment of silence, the ghost shadow moved his lips and said something softly, and his figure quickly disappeared in the battlefield.
On the other side, Lu Ye, who was busy setting up the formation, paused.
He actually won!
He thought that after he showed enough formation flags, the ghost shadow would come to kill him tonight, but he did not expect that this guy would be so straightforward and choose to admit defeat directly.
Come to think of it, the advantage of ghost cultivators is that they can approach the target silently. This method can be used against ordinary people, but it is really unconfident to use it against Lu Ye. Who knows if this guy has arranged formations in advance? If he really attacks him, he will definitely fall into a trap.
It can be said that when the ghost cultivators are not highly cultivated, the formation cultivators who take precautions are simply the nemesis of the ghost cultivators!
But if the ghost cultivators practice their skills to a certain level, they can sneak in quietly even if it is a formation.
The ghost shadow admitted defeat and ran away. Lu Ye and Yiyi hurriedly packed up the formation flags arranged in the battle field. They were busy.
"Lu Ye, you must kill this guy if you meet him next time. It's too hateful!" Yiyi shouted while busy.
"Beat him half to death, then ask Hua Ci to heal his wounds, and beat him half to death again..." Lu Ye was furious. He would rather fight with the other party openly than to spend so much effort and have to clean up the mess in the end.
The key is that from beginning to end, he didn't even see the appearance of his opponent, which is very hateful.
On the Lingxi list, the name of Lu Yiye of the Bixue Sect has rushed into the ninth place.
The world was in an uproar!
This guy did it.
The feat of truly breaking into the top ten of the Lingxi list with the cultivation of Tianba, which undoubtedly also means that he is already the strongest in the Lingxi realm.
He is only Tianba!
He can also be promoted to Tianjiu!
This is what makes people feel panic.
At this point, strictly speaking, Lu Ye only needs to fight one more game to be qualified to challenge the number one on the list.
However, since he started the list, he has been looking for the monks of Wanmo Ridge to challenge them one by one, so he did not choose to do so.
The next target is the guy ranked sixth.
It took two days to challenge the ghost shadow. From beginning to end, Lu Ye did not use a knife. Although it ended with the ghost shadow's active surrender, he was a little depressed because he could not vent his fighting spirit.
So he sharpened his knife and prepared to take the guy ranked sixth.
Initiate a challenge, the other party accepts the challenge, wait for the other party to choose the terrain, the sky falls, and Lu Ye's figure disappears, all in one go.
There is a white light in the field of vision, the sound of waves sweeping by the ears, and even the air is salty and humid.
This immediately reminded Lu Ye of the days when he and Hua Ci participated in the Lingxi defense battle. If he was right, the terrain chosen by the other party should be on the sea.
His vision was restored, and he turned around to look around. As expected, it was indeed on the sea. Lu Ye was on an island on the sea.
The island was very small, only about ten feet in radius.
A few dozen feet away, there was another similar island. The two islands were about the same size, and they looked like twin islands.
On the opposite island, there stood a man in his early twenties with loose sleeves. He was not handsome, but his expression was very resolute.
This man was probably a magic cultivator, and a water magic cultivator! That's why he deliberately chose such a battle field.
As everyone knows, Lu Yiye of the Bixue Sect is a soldier cultivator who has practiced the fire method. In such a battle field, a water magic cultivator can have too much advantage. Relatively speaking, such an environment is also very suppressive to a fire magic soldier cultivator.
If Lu Ye wanted to get close, he had to fly over the sea of dozens of feet and kill into the island where the opponent was. However, in mid-air, no matter how flexible the flying device was, he was just a target.
If he didn't find a way to rush over, he would also become a target. Anyway, this magic cultivator had the advantage.
He fully exercised the challenger's right to choose the terrain of the battle field. Lu Ye admired him for finding such a wonderful terrain among so many battle fields.
What surprised Lu Ye even more was that the sea was not calm. When all kinds of strange sea beasts swam by, huge shadows appeared under the water.
If he was knocked down while flying over the sea, he would basically die.
In such an environment, it was difficult for Yiyi to get close to the opponent.
"Lu Yiye?" The magic cultivator stood at the edge of his island and tried to say hello to Lu Ye.
In response to him, nine streams of light from the flying device broke through the air, and the streams flew across the sea. The magic cultivator stood there motionless, and there was no change on his face.
The flying weapon stopped less than three feet away from the cultivator, and after a slight vibration, Lu Ye took it back. It was not that Lu Ye did not want to attack the other party, but the controlled distance had reached the limit, so he had to take it back, otherwise it would be like throwing meat buns at dogs.
"I have heard that Lu Yiye of the Green Blood Sect is superb in flying weapon skills, and his attack distance is far beyond his own realm. Today, I see that it is indeed well-deserved!" The cultivator praised him generously, "But fellow Daoist, there is no need to test it. The distance between the two of us is now about ninety feet, and your flying weapon cannot hit me."
Although he was calm, he still felt scared. He had overestimated the distance of Lu Ye's flying weapon as much as possible, but he did not expect that he still underestimated it.
Just now, Lu Ye's flying weapon could hit him with just a few feet away!
As he spoke, a water ball suddenly appeared in his hand. With a flick of his wrist, the water ball flew towards Lu Ye like an arrow from a string. While still in the air, the water ball suddenly exploded, and a series of small water arrows covered Lu Ye's island.
"The spells are different. The attack distance of spells is much longer than that of flying weapons."
It is common sense that the attack distance of spells is longer than that of flying weapons, so the magic cultivators generally do not need to refine flying weapons to kill the enemy, because they only have spells.
Then he saw a fire phoenix spell coming towards him.
The magic cultivator immediately urged the spell to meet it. It was still a ball of water, but after flying in the air, the water ball would turn into various forms of spells, or water arrows, or water dragons, or other forms of water beasts, all kinds of tricks, dazzling the people who watched.
It must be said that this person is ranked sixth for a reason. He stood there like a turret, performing exquisite spells at a very fast speed.
Lu Ye did not spend much time on the faction of magic cultivators, but his casting speed was not slow. After all, in the inheritance of the fire phoenix spirit pattern, he witnessed the birth and fall of a four-elephant sacred beast with his own eyes.
His understanding of the Fire Phoenix Art far exceeds that of ordinary practitioners. The power of the Fire Phoenix Art he casts now is several times greater than before.
The fire system is explosive, and the water system is feminine. In terms of the lethality of a single spell, the opponent's magician is not as good as Lu Ye, but in terms of casting speed and frequency, Lu Ye is far inferior to the opponent.
After all, he is a professional.
Moreover, Lu Ye soon discovered a problem. The environment here has a strong suppression on the Fire Phoenix Art he casts. Compared with the Fire Phoenix Art he usually activates, the power he casts at this moment is 30% weaker.
"Amazing, really amazing." The magician was fighting with Lu Ye in magic, and he was slowly excited. "You can cast magic to this extent as a soldier. Fellow Daoist, I have never seen anyone like you! But it is meaningless to go on like this, fellow Daoist, if you continue like this, you will lose!"
