2115 Change in Situation

　　Coiling Dragon Mountain Range.

　　The Immortal Sect Selection was still ongoing and as time passed by, the number of cultivators remaining in the valley decreased.

　　Unexpectedly, the Grade 6 Earth Immortal who should have been eliminated soon did not leave.

　　On the contrary, the sickly young man seemed to have suddenly become lively and energetic when he arrived in the valley. He ran around without resting at all.

　　On the first day he entered the valley, that person escaped from the encirclement of Lie Feng and the others. Furthermore, he managed to escape from the pursuit of Princess Scarlet Rainbow.

　　Thereafter, he defeated a Grade 7 Earth Immortal and obtained dozens of Coiling Dragon Badges.

　　On the third day, that person encountered another Grade 7 Earth Immortal and his methods were still simple. He made use of his movement technique’s speed to catch the other party off guard and obtained more than ten Coiling Dragon Badges.

　　In the following period of time, when the young man encountered Grade 8 or 9 Earth Immortals, he turned to flee without hesitation.

　　In this valley, even Princess Scarlet Rainbow could not catch up to him, let alone others. They could only watch him leave each time.

　　If he encountered a lone Grade 7 Earth Immortal, the young man would take the initiative to fight and would always win without any exceptions.

　　However, on the 15th day, the situation gradually changed.

　　There were still more than ten days left and the Immortal Sect Selection was about to end.

　　As for the cultivators in the valley, there were only slightly more than 500 left and most of them were eliminated!

　　Among the remaining 500-odd people, almost all of them were Grade 8 or 9 Earth Immortals. As for Su Zimo, he had not encountered a single Grade 7 Earth Immortal for more than four days.

　　Right now, he had more than 300 Coiling Dragon Badges in his storage bag and was quite a distance away from 1,800.

　　“If I’m not wrong, there shouldn’t be much changes in the number of Coiling Dragon Badges he has anymore.”

　　“It’s way too difficult,”

　　A spectating cultivator said, “That person’s movement technique is so strong and his methods are not weak. He can even kill above his level but he only obtained slightly more than 300 Coiling Dragon Badges.”

　　Another person pouted. “The Immortal Sect Selection is held once every hundred years and only a hundred people are selected at a time. What do you think that means?”

　　“It means that on average, there’s only one Earth Immortal in Divine Firmament Mainland who gets to join the four immortal sects every year. How difficult is that? It’s even harder than ascending the heavens!”

　　High in the skies, clouds surged and immortal qi was ethereal.

　　Yang Ruoxu shook his head. “This can’t continue. If he wants to obtain enough Coiling Dragon Badges, he has to find against Grade 8 Earth Immortals.”

　　There were not many Grade 7 Earth Immortals left in the valley.

　　Furthermore, Grade 7 Earth Immortals did not have many Coiling Dragon Badges to begin with.

　　Even if Su Zimo searched for all the remaining Grade 7 Earth Immortals and snatched their Coiling Dragon Badges, it would be difficult for him to gather 1,800.

　　“Grade 8 Earth Immortal… difficult,”

　　Heaven Abyss said slowly.

　　Defeating a Grade 8 Earth Immortal was a difference of two minor realms and the difficulty was doubled!

　　Furthermore, which of the Grade 8 Earth Immortals in the valley who could last till now were not strong with many trump cards?

　　Even in a fight of the same cultivation realm, victory was unpredictable, let alone two minor cultivation realms above.

　　Suddenly, Heaven Immortal Green Peak said, “This lad’s movement technique is not bad. He’s quite suitable to cultivate in Imperial Wind Temple.”

　　“What’s the use of being suitable?”

　　Heaven Immortal White Sea chuckled. “If that lad only has slightly more than 300 Coiling Dragon Badges, we can’t break the rules no matter how suitable he is.”

　　“Mmm?”

　　Right then, Yang Ruoxu exclaimed softly and suddenly said, “That lad has encountered a Grade 8 Earth Immortal!”

　　“In the past ten days, he has encountered countless Grade 8 and 9 Earth Immortals. At most, he would just turn and flee. What’s so special about that?”

　　Heaven Immortal White Sea waved his folding fan in disapproval.

　　“He’s not fleeing,”

　　Heaven Abyss said in a deep voice.

　　Heaven Immortal White Sea and the others focused their gazes.

　　In the valley, the sickly young man was in a stand-off with a middle-aged man in yellow robes. However, he did not escape, as though he was prepared to attack!

　　“Seems like this lad has also realized the problem. Now, he wants to challenge a Grade 8 Earth Immortal to obtain enough Coiling Dragon Badges,” Yang Ruoxu said.

　　Heaven Immortal Green Peak frowned. “This middle-aged man’s name is Xiao Yun and he’s extremely strong. In a previous battle, he suppressed another Grade 9 Earth Immortal!”

　　“Yes, there should be more than 800 Coiling Dragon Badges in Xiao Yun’s storage bag,”

　　Heaven Immortal White Sea said, “It’s naturally easy for that lad to escape with his movement technique. However, there’s almost no chance for him to win.”

　　In the valley.

　　Xiao Yun looked at Su Zimo who was not far away with a mocking expression and chuckled. “We’ve met before and you turned to run. Why aren’t you running this time round?”

　　The previous time they met, Su Zimo changed directions and sped the entire way without any intention of fighting.

　　Xiao Yun chased with all his might and almost vomited blood but he could not catch up.

　　This time round, when he saw Su Zimo again, he had no intention of chasing.

　　“I’m not leaving this time round. I’m prepared to snatch your Coiling Dragon Badges,”

　　Su Zimo shook his head gently and said frankly without hiding his intentions.

　　“Haha!”

　　Xiao Yun burst into laughter and asked in disbelief, “You? A Grade 6 Earth Immortal?”

　　It was truly not because he underestimated Su Zimo.

　　The fact that he could hold out till now with his Level 8 Earth Essence realm cultivation and even obtain more than 800 Coiling Dragon Badges was proof of his strength.

　　In fact, Xiao Yun even had the combat strength to kill opponents above his level!

　　But now, a Grade 6 Earth Immortal, a cultivator two cultivation realms beneath him, declared that he wanted to snatch his Coiling Dragon Badges.

　　To him, this was the greatest joke in the world!

　　Swoosh!

　　Without a second word, Su Zimo moved and arrived before Xiao Yun in the blink of an eye. Raising his palm, he conjured the Great Chaos Essence Palm and crushed down on Xiao Yun’s head!

　　In the previous battles, Su Zimo had barely used any secret skills or offensive skills.

　　He merely made use of his movement technique’s speed to catch his opponents off guard—that was his only combat method.

　　But now, the moment Su Zimo attacked, he used the Great Chaos Essence Palm!

　　Although Xiao Yun was smiling, he was actually on high alert and was paying attention to Su Zimo’s every move.

　　It was definitely not a fluke that he was able to survive till now!

　　Su Zimo’s movement technique was so fast that even he was wary and would naturally not be careless.

　　The moment Su Zimo moved, Xiao Yun swiped his storage bag and summoned a gigantic shield, raising it high!

　　Bang!

　　Su Zimo’s Great Chaos Essence Palm struck the shield heavily with a dull thud.

　　“Good lord!”

　　Xiao Yun shuddered and gasped!

　　Although he was prepared, his blood qi fluctuated and his arm went numb from Su Zimo’s palm strike.

　　At the same time, he was secretly delighted.

　　His shield was unusual and could be used for both offense and defense. There were countless spikes on the surface of the shield.

　　If it was slapped on the body, a large piece of flesh could be torn off!

　　Su Zimo’s palm had exerted such a ferocious power on the shield—this young man’s palm was probably pierced and mangled by now!

　　Xiao Yun blocked the palm strike and took the opportunity to take a glance, but he was slightly stunned.

　　Su Zimo’s palm was fair as jade and did not seem injured at all.

　　When he looked at the shield in his hands again, there was a palm-shaped dent that flattened all the spikes in the area!
