Chapter 372: The Championship Battle, a Delightful Display for Xi Xi, Who Sets Off a Grand Firework
Chapter 372: The Championship Battle, a Delightful Display for Xi Xi, Who Sets Off a Grand Firework with Her Own Hands. 【Seeking Monthly Votes】 (Part 2)
"Hahaha, good girl, Xixi! This Mechanism Art..."
Lu Tai Bai laughed heartily and couldn't resist taking a swig of wine from the wine gourd, feeling incredibly cheerful.
He turned to look at Li Che, his eyes bright. "Ah Che, were you prepared for this? I heard that those from the Underworld, including the Ox Demon, all like Xixi. That Ox Demon is even Xixi's cheap teacher... It seems to be true."
"Is this Ma Mian's Mechanism Art?"
Lu Tai Bai laughed.
Li Che had a gentle smile on his face, and he nodded.
By his side, Zhang Ya was also excited, her face flushed with joy, tightly holding Li Che's arm.
"Husband! Xixi won, Xixi won! Xixi has advanced to the Championship Battle of the Dragonling Competition! Our daughter... is so amazing!"
Zhang Ya was overjoyed.
She knew that her daughter and husband had worked so hard, all for her sake.
"Don't worry, for the Championship Battle, I've prepared something big for Xixi..."
"After all, Xixi is only six years old, and her strength is still somewhat lacking compared to those older children. Even Zhang Yunlong is already thirteen... If Xixi were thirteen, what would Zhang Yunlong matter? Even if it's a Zi Fu Shen Zong disciple, what could they do?"
Li Che smiled faintly, unconcerned.
"Xixi is seven years older than her, is it excessive for her to use a little Mechanism Art?"
"This time, it's purely for Xixi to have fun and let her blow things up."
Li Che was extremely indulgent.
Looking at Xixi, with her hands on her chest and two pigtails standing tall, returning with her head held high, Li Che couldn't help but smile.
After Xixi returned, she tilted her head.
"What nonsense is my father talking about? I almost couldn't hold back... It smells so good, what a pity I couldn't eat it."
Xixi's eyes were filled with regret and disappointment.
However, to participate in the final Championship Battle, Xixi still offered the seven-thousand-year-old Peach of Immortality as a sacrifice.
Li Che rubbed Xixi's head. "Don't worry, Father will take you to pick some later."
"Huh?" Xixi tilted her head.
What nonsense is Father talking about?
But the children's cheers didn't last long.
They quieted down and turned to look at the center of the White Jade Plaza, where a small Daoist in a green robe was walking step by step, his footsteps echoing like the drums of a giant god, sending chills down their spines.
The small Daoist carried a peach wood sword case on his back, with a withered wood branch holding his hair in place, his eyes filled with disdain and coldness, staring in Xixi's direction.
Everyone knew that Zi Fu Shen Zong's top Infant Dragon was waiting for Xixi.
He wanted to compete with Xixi in the final battle for the Dragonling Competition's championship and the nine-thousand-year-old Peach of Immortality!
Xixi didn't give up; she chose to continue challenging, so there would be one more battle!
"Let him wait!"
Xixi waved her hand with great dominance!
Although Zhang Yunlong was waiting for her, Xixi wasn't influenced by his rhythm.
Numerous children gathered together, chatting and laughing.
Zhang Yunlong stood in the rain, his Primordial Energy manipulating the falling raindrops to form a coiling water dragon. His eyes narrowed slightly.
"She's ignoring me?"
Zhang Yunlong had thought that when Li Wanxi saw him coming out, she would immediately rush to challenge him. He never expected that Li Wanxi would completely ignore him, which made Zhang Yunlong feel a surge of anger.
"But... since it's like this, you'll just have to wait..."
Zhang Yunlong stood with his hands behind his back as countless raindrops fell from the sky, swirling around him as if infused with his aura, merging with the water dragon.
Li Wanxi would have to wait...
Wait for his aura to reach a terrifying height!
...
...
In the main banquet area of the True Martial Divine Sect.
Shi Ming, Shi Xuan, and the other Dragonlings clenched their fists, excitedly cheering.
Even Shi Xuan, who had just suffered a severe injury, had eyes shining brightly with excitement.
The Sect Head of the True Martial Divine Sect, Shi Jian, had eyes as bright as two blazing suns, exuding an incredibly dazzling light.
Xixi's Mechanism Art...
That Mechanism Art!
It was the perfect Marksman!
This thing was even more threatening than a Marksman, and becoming a Marksman required diligent and arduous cultivation. But with the Mechanism Art, one only needed simple training to be able to use it...
If one could have an army that mastered this kind of Mechanism Art...
How terrifying would that be?!
Even a top-tier Three-Flower Grand Master would have no chance to escape and would be swept away in one go.
Even a Martial Saint!
Would likely be overwhelmed by the firepower of this army!
Shi Jian was incredibly excited. As a veteran general who had experienced countless battles, he seemed to see the terrifying cavalry of the Dali King's Court, known for their dominance in the desert, collapsing under the onslaught of the Mechanism Art!
After all, the Jiao Horses couldn't move as nimbly as the martial artists, so the cavalry charging on them would be the perfect targets!
Shi Jian, the Sect Head of the True Martial Divine Sect, rubbed his hands, his mouth dry. Even a powerful man like him couldn't help but have sweat beads form in his palms.
"How should I bring this up?"
"It's... really quite embarrassing."
Shi Jian rubbed his bald head and muttered.
Li Che had agreed to support them with the Xian Gong Gatling, and now Shi Jian had his eyes on the Mechanism Art...
Would this give Li Bansheng the impression that Shi Jian was easily distracted?
While Shi Jian was hesitating...
The entire Third City of the Divine Capital was bustling with numerous martial artists, but they all froze in shock.
No one had expected Li Wanxi to win, and especially not by using Mechanism Art!
Mechanism Art... The once-flourishing Tang Clan's Mechanism Art had once swept through the Great Jing.
But now, the Tang Clan's Mechanism Art had long faded, and no one had expected it to make a comeback in such a spectacular fashion!
The news spread like a flood throughout the nine cities of the Divine Capital.
The gambling houses went crazy, completely losing their minds...
When the news broke that Xixi would participate in the final round of the Dragonling Competition to compete for the champion title against the first Dragonling of the Purple Mansion Divine Sect, the gambling houses went even wilder!
...
...
Buzz, buzz, buzz—
Two Divine Natures flew swiftly through the pouring rain, intertwining in the sky.
Finally, they collided!
The Divine Natures exploded, then unfurled like a scroll, revealing Xixi's adorable, wine-drinking figure.
The other Divine Nature trembled in the air, also unfolding like a scroll.
The Purple Robe Daoist Temple's Lian Gong Gong gracefully entered the pavilion, warping the rain around him.
This time, the Purple Robe Daoist Temple bowed slightly towards the numerous banquet tables inside the pavilion, then bowed towards the Emperor and Empress.
The Emperor's face was obscured by the Divine Nature and Vital Energy, making his expression unreadable.
However, the Empress, with her noble and elegant demeanor, smiled warmly.
Her exquisite face revealed a hint of a smile.
"This palace will host the Peach Festival, which includes the Dragonling Competition and the Hero Festival. The champions of both competitions will receive a nine-thousand-year-old peach personally picked by this palace from the mysterious peach trees in the Peach Orchard of the Xi Wangmu Shrine."
The Empress's voice was clear and bright.
She gently opened her palm.
In her palm, a branch of an incredibly crimson peach appeared, with alternating green and pink hues. Each peach hair seemed to radiate a flowing light, exuding an incredibly rich essence, Divine Nature, and spirituality!
The peach itself seemed to have a lively spirit, like a living being!
This nine-thousand-year-old peach radiated a dazzling light and an incredibly rich peach fragrance, filling the heavens and earth, making people's mouths water.
"This nine-thousand-year-old peach is right here. Whoever becomes the champion can come before this palace and take this peach."
The Empress smiled gracefully.
"The final round of the Dragonling Competition, the battle for the championship."
"Begin."
As the words fell.
On the White Jade Square, an overwhelming aura suddenly surged.
Zhang Yunlong's eyes flashed with an incredibly brilliant light, and the water dragon rose higher, gathering the pouring rain and reaching a height of ten zhang, coiling around him.
"A nine-thousand-year-old peach... My Temple Deity longs for it. I, Zhang Yunlong, will take this peach."
Zhang Yunlong smiled faintly.
His gaze fell upon Xixi.
"Li Wanxi, come and fight."
"Show me what kind of monster you have hidden within you..."
Even the Empress had spoken.
Xixi naturally didn't hesitate anymore. She stood up, and sparks erupted beneath her feet as two Hell Lotus Golden Light Wheels burst forth.
Xixi stared at Zhang Yunlong, her heart brimming with anger. She couldn't help but think of how Zhang Yunlong had brutally killed Shi Xuan, almost flaying him alive.
Shi Xuan would rather die than use his last resort, which would take down everyone in the Great Jing territory, but Zhang Yunlong actually forced him to unleash it.
Why don't you just fly away?! Xixi turned her head to look at Li Che.
"Daddy!"
Li Che was taken aback for a moment, then couldn't help but smile: "Of course, you can."
"I told you, this Peach Festival is for you to have fun, to set off fireworks. Whatever you want to do... Daddy won't stop you."
"I just want you to be happy and not have any regrets."
Hearing this, Xixi instantly broke into a radiant smile, her dimples blooming.
"Daddy is so nice!"
"Xixi loves you!"
With that, Xixi stomped her foot, and the Hell Lotus Wind Fire Golden Wheel immediately began to spin at high speed, roaring as it lifted Xixi into the air, hovering above the White Jade Square.
The intense heat evaporated the raindrops in the air, forming a thick mist, as if she were standing on an Immortal Cloud, overlooking the White Jade Square. Below her, Zhang Yunlong was surrounded by transparent water dragons, resembling a Soaring Dragon!
Lian Gong Gong of the Purple Robe Daoist Temple looked at the two, then clapped his hands and immediately shot away, vanishing from the White Jade Square.
A faint smile appeared on Zhang Yunlong's face.
"Finally... it's beginning."
Then, he saw Xixi, riding the Hell Lotus Wind Fire Golden Wheel, ascending rapidly into the sky, directly soaring into the clouds.
"Using the same trick again?"
"Trying to use the same Mechanism Art to deal with me?"
"Zhang Yun Hu fell for your mechanism, but I... am not Zhang Yun Hu."
Zhang Yunlong removed the sword scabbard from his back and flicked his finger. Instantly, a palm-sized sword whirled and whistled, its tip aiming at Xixi in mid-air. Under the control of his Primordial Spirit, it whistled through the clouds, tearing through the air, and shot madly toward Xixi in the sky!
However, Xixi, riding the Hell Lotus Wind Fire Golden Wheel, kept ascending, continuously rising!
The distance widened, and the originally swift flying sword that could easily pierce through Shi Xuan now appeared sluggish.
A thousand zhan high in the sky!
Xixi's clothes fluttered in the wind, and the heavy rain roared behind her!
She kicked her feet hard, and instantly the two Hell Lotus Wind Fire Golden Wheels began to spin at high speed.
But in the next moment, they suddenly descended.
Because...
On the Hell Lotus Wind Fire Golden Wheels, a massive construct suddenly appeared in mid-air!
It was a massive construct made from tens of thousands of extremely fine spirit wood parts!
The Immortal Art: Guanyin Lotus Main Battle Tank!
This was a mechanism designed by Li Che with great effort, an upgrade from the Tang Clan's Guanyin Blood Lotus, refined over countless days and nights!
Rumble—
An eight-meter-wide lotus platform appeared in the sky, completely supported by the two Hell Lotus Wind Fire Golden Wheels. Raindrops fell on it and were instantly evaporated by the intense heat.
Below the lotus platform, thousands of tiny wheels, under Xixi's divine sense control, could freely change direction!
On the platform, a massive Guanyin statue, carved from spirit wood, sat with a benevolent expression, her thousand arms intricately intertwined.
The Fire Deity Wrathful Serpent Thousand-Armed Guanyin!
Rushing sword qi swept in, and Xixi grunted, her right hand trembling as she threw a golden brick down.
Instantly, the flying sword controlled by Zhang Yunlong lost its divine light!
Xixi stood behind the Guanyin Lotus Main Battle Tank.
Her divine sense surged, and Xixi's body trembled with excitement, her hands and feet trembling with excitement.
So excited, so happy, it felt like a dream!
Xixi had never thought...
She would have the chance...
To set off such a massive firework!
Thank you, Zhang Yuanlong, thank you, Daddy, thank you, everyone...
Xixi's face broke into an uncontrollable radiant smile!
"Fireworks—"
"Come on! Xixi wants to see a big firework!"
Slap!
Xixi slapped the button.
A thousand zhan high in the sky!
Guanyin's benevolent face looked down at Zhang Yunlong on the White Jade Square.
Clack, clack, clack!
A thousand arms stacked and formed a circle, like a cannon preparing to fire a Primordial Energy blast!
The Thousand-Armed Guanyin Fire Deity Cannon!
A soccer-sized black and white extreme collapse Guanyin Lotus shell was loaded into the cannon!
As it was thrown in—
Splash—
Like a stone into a lake.
Xixi's eyes instantly burst with the most brilliant golden light, filling her vision!
"Fire—!!!"
...
...
On the White Jade Square.
Zhang Yunlong's brows furrowed, water dragons coiling around him. He sensed that his flying sword, which had soared a thousand zhan into the sky...
Had lost contact, as if the connection to his Primordial Spirit had been severed.
Zhang Yunlong took a step, stepping on the water dragon, preparing to ride it into the sky.
He had only flown a hundred zhan when an extreme sense of unease suddenly enveloped his heart. He looked up, the wooden pin in his hair breaking, his black hair flying wildly in the wind.
He looked up, his face feeling no trace of the heavy spring rain...
The rain seemed to stop suddenly!
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed slightly as he saw the thick white mist being torn apart...
Then.
Extreme brilliance erupted, releasing countless rays of light!
Blindingly bright, dazzlingly brilliant!
It was as if the sun...
Had fallen from the sky!
