The Six Immortals - Chapter 124

Chapter 124 – The Changing Dan

Since Bi Fan had already made up his mind, he was doing his best to avoid a direct confrontation with Luo Sheng, and continued to retreat.

As a result of which, Luo Sheng started thinking that he’s gaining an upper hand, and started attacking even more ferociously.

Soon, Luo Sheng’s display of the ‘Flurry Sword’ changed to the third form of the skill, ‘The Rainstorm Sword’.

‘The Rainstorm Sword’ attack, brought with it, a storm of winds; the attack was extremely fierce.

Bi Fan was only casting out his moves to defend against Luo Sheng’s attacks. Bi Fan had turned very passive and Luo Sheng had started suppressing him very badly.

His powerful sword-play, plus a sword like the Tian Yun, was making things very difficult for Bi Fan.

“Puchi….” Bi Fan was using his agility to its extreme, but still, his clothes were torn and scratched in several places.

Fortunately, Bi Fan was wearing his armor, which is why he hadn’t injured himself severely; he wasn’t worried about injuries either, probably due to the defensive capabilities of his armor.

Luo Sheng smiled: “Not so arrogant now ah….well, I’m going to finish you off soon, boy.”

Luo Sheng was pressing harder and harder, and Bi Fan was constantly retreating, which made it look as if he was taking a beating.

The contest on the stage was appearing very confusing to most of the spectators.

Jing Feng shouted loudly: “Brother Bi Fan, what are you afraid of? Stop holding back!” since his contest had ended, he had turned his attention to Bi Fan’s contest against Luo Sheng.

Jing Feng simply couldn’t understand Bi Fan’s thought process. He had seen the ease with which Bi Fan had beaten Ji Ying Lan, and even if Lou Sheng was stronger, there was no way that he could bully Bi Fan around, especially in the manner in which he currently was.

Luo Sheng had also seen the contest between Bi Fan and Ji Ying Lan, but was under the impression that his superior weapon was helping him in gaining the upper hand in this fight.

“What’s the matter with Bi Fan?” Yan Yu Si’s eye brows started to wrinkle, as he seemed quite confused as well: “Is he deliberately allowing Luo Sheng to win the fight?”

“Miss, Bi Fan isn’t going to lose this fight, is he? If he loses, then Luo Sheng will definitely never stop humiliating him, and may even try to kill him.” Xiao Feng’s face was covered with anxiety and fear.

“Keep watching. Bi Fan isn’t going to get beaten that easily; he’s definitely got a plan.” Yan Yu Si suddenly realized that Bi Fan may have some other ideas, and exposed a relaxed smile.

Since Yan Yu Si seemed as ease with the proceedings, Xiao Feng also calmed down a bit, but she was still a bit worried.

Yu Qing Yang was quite surprised, and thought to himself: “I’m pretty sure that this kid, Bi Fan, is trying to learn Luo Sheng’s style, but isn’t he taking a very big risk in doing so?”

“Bi Fan is certainly trying to learn Luo Sheng’s martial skills. Once we are back at the Yang Shan peak, I will personally help him improve the technique. After all, I am his Master, and I must undertake my responsibilities properly.” Ling Xin Ya had already started formulating his own ideas.

Since his grandson was winning the contest, Luo Xiao Tian obviously quite happy, and had a big smile on his face.

“Luo Sheng is the most talented youngster in this young generation. Although he’s a bit lazy, I’ll personally pay more attention to his training now, and he should be able to develop into the Quinyang Sect’s backbone. Yu Qing Yang doesn’t have any male successors, and Yan Yu Si is very unlikely to return to take his place as the Sect’s in charge, so there’s still hope for Luo Sheng.”

Luo Xiao Tian was making his own calculations, and his old face was blossoming in a very radiant smile.

Luo Sheng’s ‘Floating sword’s’ third form, ‘The Rainstorm Sword’, was very different from the usual one, and had hundreds of very minor changes.

Soon enough, Luo Sheng’s display of his variations in style was over, and Bi Fan had already memorized the entire skill in his mind.

Bi Fan had learnt this skill from Yang Feng, which itself had at least forty changes of its own, but Luo Sheng’s version was still much superior, and a lot more powerful.

Luo Sheng had already cast out the entire range of his skills, and still hadn’t been able to kill Bi Fan; so obviously, he was beginning to get a little anxious now.

“This guy is really very good; his agility, especially, is making it very difficult for me to get a hold of him.” Luo Sheng thought to himself: “Bi Fan, I must find a way to catch hold of you. It seems that I’ll finally have to use my secret weapon.”

Bi Fan realized that Luo Sheng was done demonstrating his skills, and probably had nothing new in his arsenal, and so Bi Fan decided that it was time to start his own show.

“Luo Sheng, don’t blame me, you asked for this.” Bi Fan laughed within his mind.

Bi Fan cast out the final form of the ‘Fufeng Double-edged Sword’, ‘Thousand Willow Needles’, and his sword charged towards Luo Sheng, and cut his wrist.

“Ah….” Since Luo Sheng’s wrist took a cut, the Tian Yun sword fell out of his hands.

Now that Luo Sheng’s weapon had fallen to the floor, Bi Fan wouldn’t be able to go out after him aggressively with his sword. This was a crucial stage in the contest.

If Bi Fan continued to batter Luo Sheng with his sword, while Luo Sheng was unarmed, then the referee would surely intervene and stop the fight.

“Luo Sheng, since you’ve lost your sword, I’ll lose mine as well, so we can level the playing field, and fight with our fists.” Bi Fan smiled: “Of course, unless you’re terrified of me, and you’re ready to throw in the towel already….”

“Fist to fist! I’ll tear you apart!” Luo Sheng was furious.

When a person’s weapon falls down, like Luo Sheng’s had, it is usually considered a disgrace.

He had been shamed in front of the entire Quinyang Sect, and there was no way he would allow Bi Fan to get away with it.

Luo Sheng was completely enraged, and so, he secretly took out the Changing Dan which Luo Xiao Tian had given him, and took it.

The Changing Dan has the capacity to burst the energy of a person. After taking the Dan, the person’s strength doubles. Though, this sudden explosion of strength has a side-effect, and the user would have to suffer two or three days of weakness, prior usage.

The Changing Dan is a very rare Dan, and Luo Xiao Tian had given him one, in case he needed it to rescue himself from a life threatening situation.

At this time, Luo Sheng wanted to win so desperately, that he was willing to do almost anything. His first priority, at the moment, was to teach Bi Fan a lesson.

Bi Fan had repeatedly humiliated him, and publicly so, and Luo Sheng was furious beyond control.

“Ah!” Luo Sheng roared loudly, as his momentum started to soar.

Luo Sheng’s momentum started reaching new heights. At his current state, he only had thirteen Yun Shi of strength, which now, had already reached twenty-six Yun Shi.

At present, Luo Sheng had enough brute force to successfully overwhelm Bi Fan.

Although Luo Sheng had injured his wrist, the injury wasn’t very serious, but he would no longer be able to use his sword anymore.

This injury, however, wasn’t going to affect his close-combat fighting much, and he figured that he’d be able to gain absolute advantage over Bi Fan.

“Bi Fan, now you’re dead.” Luo Sheng said with confidence.

As they witnessed this sudden increase in Luo Sheng’s strength, many of the spectators had already started panicking, as they were worried about Bi Fan’s safety.

“Oh Shit, Luo Sheng took a Changing Dan pellet. After taking that Dan, his strength has surged far too high. Thing aren’t looking very good for Brother Bi Fan now.” Jing Feng worried.

Mo Nan patted his chest, as he tried to soothe his own fear, and said: “Fortunately, I didn’t piss Luo Sheng off like Bi Fan has managed to…. otherwise he might have used that Changing Dan against me. I’m so lucky that I’m not his opponent right now.”

“Luo Xiao Tian, you gave your grandson a Changing Dan pellet. If something happens to my disciple, then I’m not going to let you get away with this.” Ling Xin Ya was furious.

Luo Xiao Tian smiled: “Ling Xin Ya, the Quinyang Disciple’s tournament has no rules against it. The disciples are allowed to take Dan pellets during the fight, aren’t they?”

“You….” The Quinyang Sect didn’t have any rules in place to curb such an activity, and Ling Xin Ya suddenly found himself short of arguments to counter with.

Yu Qing Yang thought to himself: “Luo Sheng’s present strength isn’t very far away from the ‘Emerging from the Womb’ layer; this isn’t very good for Bi Fan….It could be very dangerous…”

Yu Qing Yang was already prepared to act, just in case he needed to rescue Bi Fan. He knew Luo Sheng well, and could see that Luo Sheng would definitely try to kill Bi Fan.

“Miss, Bi Fan is going to be okay, right? This Luo Sheng is too despicable.” Xiao Feng’s worries were reaching new heights.

Yan Yu Si mused: “Let’s watch. If things get out of hand, then I’ll stop the fight.”

Owing to the surge in Lou Sheng’s power, caused by his intake of the Changing Dan pellet, no one was optimistic about Bi Fan’s chances anymore.
