Chapter Four, Gambling Contest.

Oops!

After the four people finished casting their spells at the same time, the man with a horse face and the two women all had dim eyes and a lack of vitality, appearing as if they had expended a large amount of magical power. Only the man with a bull face displayed a shocking momentum. After a wild laugh, he grabbed the falling giant bow and feather arrows in his hand and aimed them at the young man opposite him.

Okay, then it's decided. Since we have embarked on the path of cultivating immortality, it is normal to use our powers to distinguish right from wrong. Zhong Chen looked at the four people opposite him again and agreed with a sneer.

He actually flawlessly caught four crossbow arrows!

At this moment, the enlarged ox-headed demon let out a roar and struggled to pull the huge bowstring bit by bit.

At the same time, Huo Nü let out a tender scold and swung her feather fan fiercely.

Returning Yuan Technique.

It's no wonder you're a disciple of the Zhong family. This time we'll give you face, but please tell us your name.

The clock sank. The horse-faced man muttered to himself and then turned his head to glance at the fire woman beside him.

After a cup of tea, the fog outside the temple gate had completely dissipated, leaving only Zhong Chen, Shi Wu, and the beast-faced young girl inside the temple.

At this moment, Zhong Chen's hand in his sleeve grabbed the blue light ball and swiftly disappeared with a flick on the ice shield.

"Just one strike?" Zhong Chen waved his hand dismissively, then asked the masked man with a deep voice.

The divine power that enlarges the Bull Demon's face, combined with the amplification power of three magical weapons, makes the red feather arrow shot out at an astonishing speed, seemingly invincible.

Following that, the four people didn't say anything more and turned around to leave the main hall.

Not bad, just one blow!" The horse-faced man affirmed decisively.

It should be noted that they have worked hard to cultivate for decades, but their current level of cultivation is only around the middle stage of foundation building. If the other party truly has achieved perfect foundation building, then even if the four of them join forces, it is uncertain whether they can win in a fight.

Did I manage to take this hit? Zhong Chen looked at the four people, shook his sleeves, and there was a faint flash of light. The ice shield in front of him also dissipated into strands of white mist.

A large red bird shadow flew out from the fan, and after a clear chirp, it transformed into a crimson feathered arrow in the air, crystal clear and translucent, with layers of red clouds shining through.

A "swoosh" sound, amidst the stalemate of the ice shield, a burst of red light shot out, unexpectedly piercing through the thick ice shield in an instant, and reaching Zhong Chen's chest.

The woman wearing a blue skull mask hummed lowly, took out a blue jade ruyi from her sleeve, and with a flick of her wrist, it turned into a blue light soaring into the sky. In an instant, it merged with a black light, and as it spun, the radiance burst forth, transforming into a black and blue giant bow.

The bull-faced man let out a roar, his fingers suddenly loosened, and the feathered arrow trembled before disappearing from the giant bow.

Four-phase arrow!

Mu Wan'er, you've said too much! Zhong Daoyou, let's attack the four of them. Upon hearing the girl's words, the horse-faced man's face changed drastically, and he suddenly shouted in a stern voice.

Oh, from your tone, have you also practiced cultivation?" Zhong Chen asked, somewhat surprised, turning around.

Fortunately, when he initially chose his lifebound artifact, he opted for the renowned and sturdy black mithril, instead of fragile materials that enhance water attribute spells. Otherwise, this strike would have caused significant damage to his lifebound artifact.

Without any hesitation, he immediately activated a spell. A surge of magical power rushed through his palm and quickly poured into the gourd. The small dents on the surface of the gourd disappeared at a visible speed.

En Gong ... ...

At this point, the ox-faced man's figure had shrunk rapidly like a deflated ball, returning to its original state, and there was not much anger left in his heart.

Zhong Chen could only temporarily set aside his doubts, and with a command to the two bookboys, he clapped his hands on the bottom of the gourd with one hand. Immediately, the mouth of the gourd opened, and a clear stream of water gushed out, initially as thin as a finger, but in an instant, it transformed into the thickness of a bowl, swirling and dancing around his body.

The girl with the animal mask showed a hint of hesitation.

The young lady once served as an assistant to the previous Ghost Mother, so how could she not have practiced magic? However, due to her limited aptitude and low cultivation, she was unable to advance much. Moreover, her demonic beast bloodline is now backlashing, causing all her magical powers to be completely drained.

The girl with the beastly face, upon hearing this, had a grateful expression on her face and couldn't help but want to say something.

It is said that among the new generation of the Zhong family's direct descendants, there are three outstanding individuals. If one of them has achieved the perfect foundation building cultivation, it would not be surprising.

Miss, could you please tell me about the change of ownership of the Ghost Mansion? Zhong Chen watched the four ghosts leave, then turned to the girl and asked calmly.

Yes, Your Excellency, whatever you wish to know, this humble woman will naturally not conceal anything. The beast-faced girl replied without hesitation, her eyes filled with immense gratitude.

The surface of the ice shield burst into a large red light, followed by several "crack" sounds. Countless cracks appeared on the surface of the ice shield, as if it was about to be completely destroyed in the next moment.

At this moment, the red light on the surface of the ice shield completely dissipated. The four people, including the horse-faced man, witnessed this result, their eyes full of incredulous expressions.

Something eye-opening has happened: the cracks on the surface of the ice shield are rapidly healing in a faint blue light, and in the blink of an eye, they become incredibly strong again.

However, you have no shame, actually wanting four people to attack our young master alone! Young master, you don't have to agree to their demands. I don't believe they would dare to lay a hand on us.

The giant bow also made a buzzing sound and transformed back into a short sword and a ruyi, returning to the hands of the horse-faced man and the woman with the blue skull mask, respectively.

A deafening roar.

Zhong Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief.

My name is Zhong Chen. You can report truthfully after you go back. Zhong Chen's eyes flickered as he spoke calmly.
