I Am Only Mortal But Why Do You All Sees Me As A Immortal!

Chapter 77: A Moment of Life and Death

Those who are below the tribulation cannot challenge those who are above the tribulation.

That's the truth.

Even if there is a sect protection formation in place today, as the leader, he only has a 10% to 20% chance of winning against Huang Li, and the final outcome is likely to be Huang Li getting injured and Xiao Ling dying.

But even so, Xiao Ling cannot retreat!

Because he carries the hopes of the entire sect!

Fortunately, Xiao Ling knew this mortal enemy quite well. Huang Li was a rather crazy guy. Perhaps, for him, it was precisely because there was no one in the Nian Ling Sect who could fight with him that he had the murderous intention to destroy the Nian Ling Sect.

"If you want to fight, I'll fight with you."

"Just you and me, in the same place."

Xiao Ling took the initiative to speak and issued a declaration of war to Huang Li!

"Oh?" Huang Li raised his lips slightly: "But your strength at the Half-Step Crossing Tribulation Stage is not good enough!"

"Give me four days, and I can advance to the Tribulation Crossing Stage."

Xiao Ling looked at him calmly.

Huang Li's eyes suddenly became sharp.

"What... nonsense are you talking about? Four days? It seems like you've been stuck at the Half-Step Crossing Tribulation Stage for a long time, and now you're talking nonsense in front of me, saying that you can cross this hurdle in four days?"

"If you don't believe me, let's fight to the death now."

Xiao Ling, however, was resolute and powerful. He waved his sleeves and the dark blue power of Taoism appeared, leaving Huang Li with a decision...

Either fight now or fight in four days.

He didn't hesitate. Instead of crushing this guy now, it would be better to wait for four days to see if he could give him some surprises.

"good."

"I will give you four more days."

Huang Li laughed, then flicked his sleeves and flew away.

Looking at his disappearing back, Xiao Ling's tense expression finally relaxed.

Seeing his slightly tired and weak appearance, Zhu Ling and others couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Grand Elder, are you okay?"

"...No problem."

Xiao Ling smiled bitterly and shook his head.

Of course, what he said just now was just to delay time.

After all, he was not sure of winning the battle four days later... But how could he show his weakness? He deliberately spoke with such bragging, Huang Li actually fell for it. Otherwise, if he showed the slightest intention of being afraid of fighting, he would inevitably face a catastrophe.

"Hmph, no matter what, let's delay for now."

Xiao Ling's thoughts were racing.

Although he is at the half-step Tribulation Crossing Stage, it is still impossible for him to win against the wild power of the first level of Tribulation Crossing Stage."Let all the disciples go back and rest... clean up Elder Mo's body and bury him with honor."

Xiao Ling sighed and gave the order.

"Yes, Grand Elder."

Everyone agreed.

Afterwards, Zhu Ling followed Xiao Ling to the mountain gate hall of Nianling Sect.

Xiao Ling sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes and rested, recovering from his losses.

The collision of momentum just now, which could not be called a confrontation, had already caused serious impact on his internal organs. After all, the gap between him and Huang Li was still too big. Next, there would be another fierce battle!

If he doesn't advance into the stage of overcoming the tribulation, then everything will be over.

"Grand Elder, that wild force is coming with great force. If you hadn't stepped in, I'm afraid it would have already..."

Zhu Ling said worriedly.

"It seems that this time, I will definitely get the elixir from that senior."

Xiao Ling opened his eyes, with a strange color flashing in his eyes.

"Then... has the Supreme Elder ever considered..." Zhu Ling hesitated for a moment, as if he felt that this question should not be asked, and stopped.

"What are you considering?" Xiao Ling raised his eyebrows and asked.

"What if he doesn't want to give it?"

"Oh..."

Xiao Ling smiled bitterly: "If you don't give it to me, then you can dismiss all the disciples of the Nianling Sect. I will go to face Huang Li alone!"

After hearing this, even if Zhu Ling had something else to say, he couldn't say it.

"You should come with me and ask for help in person, so that it will show some sincerity. My Nianling Sect is on the verge of life and death crisis."

Xiao Ling continued to add, then stood up and walked towards the mountain gate.

"Um."

Zhu Ling was silent for a while, then hurried to follow.

The two of them hurried on their way and soon arrived at Yunling City. After listening to what Wu Rong told them, they knew that the senior liked quietness and came into the mortal world for this. Although cultivators were not forbidden to visit him, they could not be too ostentatious. Since he had already come into the mortal world, it was not possible for them to put on airs.

So, when they were near the city, they landed and walked slowly.

"Don't talk for a while, I will communicate with him."

Xiao Ling pointed out.

"good."

Zhu Ling nodded.

After entering Yunling City, Zhu Ling didn't say anything, but Xiao Ling looked at the bustling streets with people coming and going, and felt a little melancholy.

"Haha, I haven't left the sect's meditation area for a hundred years. This place feels new to me."The supreme elder muttered to himself.

"The Grand Elder is absolutely right. You should walk more often."

Zhu Ling went with the flow.

The two chatted as they came to the south of Yunling City. Following the route Wu Rong pointed out, they easily found Gu Heng's clinic.

Xiao Ling stood at the door, looking at the plaque, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"What's wrong?"

Zhu Ling noticed his change and asked.

Xiao Ling whispered: "This senior...I'm afraid he is not simple..."

Zhu Ling was stunned.

He stared at the plaque carefully several times, and indeed found nothing unusual. He couldn't help but frowned and asked, "Grand Elder, what do you mean by this?"

Xiao Ling said softly: "The true meaning of this plaque is very strong."

He had already stepped halfway into the Tribulation Crossing Stage, so it was easier for him to discern the Dao rhyme conveyed by the words than for ordinary cultivators. He could naturally discern the power contained in the words that were quite vivid and lifelike. Not to mention, the words on the plaque had another flavor -

That is...

A strong desire to fight.

Although it was hidden, he could vaguely capture a strong scent of murder from it!

This plaque should have been carved by the owner of the clinic himself.

Looking at these four words, Xiao Ling even felt that he had seen his past.

He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly: "This senior, it seems that he was once a ruthless character. The words on this plaque are sharp and hard to hide. I think his hands are stained with the blood of many enemies."

"Is that so?"

Zhu Ling's eyes widened.

Xiao Ling nodded, and after a moment's silence, he said, "However... we still need to be cautious. Although this senior seems to have retired to the city, if we accidentally arouse his past murderous nature... our lives may be in danger."

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Ling immediately understood.

He nodded, agreeing with Xiao Ling's judgment.

"The Grand Elder is absolutely right."

The two discussed for a moment, and then Xiao Ling raised his foot and walked towards the clinic.

In the front hall, there was a young man sitting there, looking through the account book.

Gu Heng looked up and saw a young man who looked about his age and a middle-aged man walking in together. He frowned, and then heard the young man say, "Are you the owner of this Gu's Medical Clinic?"

"Yes."

"I think you are the ones that old man Wu Rong mentioned who can make the decision, right?"
