CapĂtulo 2161: Chapter 2160: Cheating? I Always Keep My Promises
Xu Zimei continued, âIf you want to cultivate the Ice Sea within the Blazing Flame Realm, thereâs only one way.â
âFollow the currents back to the source!â
âI donât understand what youâre saying,â Murong Xi replied coldly.
âThen demonstrate for everyone how youâve instantly mastered the cultivation technique.â
Xu Zimei smiled.
He casually pointed, and the vast power of ice circulated within him, then converged in his hands.
âRumble, rumble.â
An even more immense Ice Sea gathered and emerged.
Underneath his hands appeared an ice cloud, which slowly expanded and then drifted toward the firmament.
The ice cloud turned into an ice river.
The originally scorching temperature around them became cooler.
âIce River,â Steward Zhou exclaimed in amazement from the side.
âThe ice cloud turning into an ice river is the first level of the cultivation technique.â
As soon as he finished speaking, the ice river in Xu Zimeiâs hands began to boil, as if an abyss with no end in sight.
âThe ice river transforming into an ice abyss is the second level,â Steward Zhou added.
Xu Zimei waved his hand again.
Where there was originally only one ice abyss in the void, suddenly, a series of ice abysses appeared, merging into one.
âThe ice abyss transforming into an ice river is the third level,â Steward Zhou said, almost like a comedic assistant, completely speechless.
As his voice fell, Xu Zimei stopped moving.
Involuntarily, someone asked, âWhat about the final level?â
âThe ice river transforming into the Ice Sea, the supreme level of the cultivation technique.â
Xu Zimei smiled, and the power in his hand surged once more.
The ice rivers spread like wild horses, enveloping and devouring everything around them.
The entire firmament of River Sun City was covered by the Ice Sea.
For a moment, the scene was grand and magnificent.
The Ice Sea drowned everything, unbeatable.
Everyone was dumbfounded as they watched the spectacle before them.
Xu Zimei looked at Murong Xi and smiled, âHowâs your cultivation of the technique coming along?â
Murong Xi appeared as if he had seen a ghost.
In disbelief, he said, âWho can instantly master a cultivation technique without even looking at it?â
âYou cheated.â
âThatâs right, you definitely cheated,â Murong Xi insisted.
He was like someone on the edge of a cliff, clinging desperately to a lifeline.
He stubbornly accused Xu Zimei of cheating.
Xu Zimei was unfazed and smiled, âSee, I told you you couldnât handle losing.â
âWho canât handle losing? Clearly, you cheated,â Murong Xi snorted coldly.
âCheaters like you should automatically be declared the loser.â
âCity Lord, what do you say?â
Xu Zimei looked at Sikong Lian and others with interest.
He couldnât be bothered to deal with Murong Xi, knowing it was human nature to fear death, and how could he admit defeat willingly?
Sikong Lian was also in a dilemma.
Logically, Xu Zimei shouldnât have cheated.
After all, this cultivation technique is so rare that very few people have seen it.
Moreover, mastering it to the supreme level is extremely rare, if not impossible!
And considering Murong Xiâs status, if it truly meant gambling with his life hereâŠ
Sikong Lian instinctively glanced at Murong Jiankong.
Next to him, Murong Jiankong frowned slightly.
He said, âItâs not that I donât believe you, but your cultivation speed is hard to trust!â
Murong Jiankong stood up and looked at everyone present.
He asked, âHas anyone ever seen someone instantly master a technique without even looking at it?â
People below whispered to each other.
âThis is too outrageous, anyway, I donât quite believe it.â
âProbably cheated, maybe even helped by people from the City Lord Mansion.â
âEven if itâs cheating, this technique isnât easy to cultivate. Even after a decade or eight years, you might not succeed.â
As the crowdâs opinions became tangled, Xu Zimei remained composed.
He smiled, âIf you havenât heard of it, it only shows your limited knowledge.â
âIf you canât do it, it only shows your foolishness.â
âWhether thereâs cheating or not can actually be easily proven.â
âNo matter what kind of cultivation technique in this world, bring it to me, and I can master it instantly.â
âSuch arrogance,â Murong Jiankong fundamentally didnât believe such an extraordinary thing.
He directly said, âThen let me test it.â
He thought for a moment and finally took out a cultivation technique.
This technique was very ancient, even somewhat incomplete.
Because of frequent flipping, the paper was also faded.
Murong Jiankong said, âWithout reading this technique, show me how you cultivate it to perfection.â
âThis technique is one of the three supreme methods of my Baori Sect.â
âIf cultivated to the extreme, oneâs body can transform into a blazing sun, capable of incinerating everything.â
Xu Zimei merely smiled.
He squinted, barely a moment later, he opened his eyes.
With a wave of his hand.
In an instant, a sun condensed in his hand.
The sun burned the firmament, standing in the void with absolute supremacy.
This sun wasnât a simple flame.
It was the techniqueâs inherent Baori Great Bright Flame.
Also the unique flame of the Baori Sectâs true transmission.
The blazing flame illuminated the skies, leaving many people dumbfounded.
If the Ice Sea was still hard to believe, then this sun couldnât be faked.
Murong Jiankongâs face changed completely.
âHow is this possible, how is this possible.â
âYou cheated,â Murong Xi was utterly stupefied, repeatedly clinging to the word âcheat.â
âCan it be proven now?â Xu Zimei looked at Sikong Lian and asked back.
Sikong Lian remained silent.
His gaze turned to Murong Jiankong.
At this moment, Murong Jiankong had to speak.
He said, âYoung people are impulsive, and a momentâs bet was just a clash.â
âI think an apology will suffice, no need to actually gamble lives.â
As these words fell, the crowd below burst into laughter.
âMurong Xi canât handle losing!â
With a âboom.â
Murong Jiankong suddenly squinted, and a sword intent descended from the sky, directly annihilating the person who had shouted on the spot.
Not even bones remained.
âDoes anyone else have any objections?â Murong Jiankong asked calmly.
Upon hearing this, everyone present shivered.
People suddenly remembered, Murong Jiankong, was the leading figure of the Baori Sectâs younger generation.
How could he be easily challenged by others?
However, Xu Zimei was unafraid, merely smiled, âSince thereâs a bet, we must act according to the rules.â
âIâm someone who has always believed in bets.â
Beside him, Sikong Lian was anxious, wanting to tell Xu Zimei to let this matter go.
But under the circumstances, it was hard to speak.
Xu Zimei slowly drew the Tyrant Shadow from his back, step by step walking toward Murong Xi.
With a âboom.â
At this moment, Murong Jiankong acted first.
He didnât want to waste words with Xu Zimei.
If reason couldnât convince people, then power could.
Such is the world of the strong devouring the weak.
Unfortunately, this time Murong Jiankong chose the wrong opponent.
When he moved, his speed was incredibly fast, almost like a phantom, invisible to others.
