The eighth day of October.
The darkness of the night faded away, and the first ray of sunshine in the morning washed away the lead.
No cultivator in the Extreme Immortal Rift Valley is sleepy. Today is the most important day in the world of cultivation. The Ultimate Immortal Ranking will finally face the final battle to select nine mysterious immortals.
It no longer matters what the ultimate goal of the nine Mysterious Immortals is. Everyone only knows that these nine Mysterious Immortals represent the highest strength of the younger generation in the world of cultivation, and are even the strongest strength in the world of cultivation! Everyone who can stand here is a proud son of heaven, with impeccable talent and potential.
More than 70 Extreme Immortals have gathered in the Ji Immortal Rift Valley. Each of these Ji Immortals has found its own place, either sitting cross-legged and concentrating, or watching others intently, some with nervous expressions, some with joy and expectation, and Most are calm and collected, waiting for the real moment to come.
No one here is taking action anymore, because no one wants to spend extra energy on unnecessary fights. The real battle of Xuanxian is about to come, and that is their target battlefield.
So many Jixian gathered here, each one full of vigor and calm, their eyes couldn't help but look at the ancient Jixian monument in the Jixian Rift Valley.
The sunlight shines on the Jixian Monument, showing a special halo, as if the Jixian Monument has been coated with a layer of gold foil, making it solemn and solemn.
No one knows how to open the Supreme Immortal Monument, but they are all waiting and don't worry about this, because someone must know that the moment when the Supreme Immortal Monument is opened is the moment when everyone is watching.
There is a huge stone on the edge of the Jixian Rift Valley, two meters high, extending outwards at an angle, leaving a shadow below.
At this time, there were three people standing in the shadows, with indifferent expressions, oblivious to the tense and solemn atmosphere around them.
The person standing in the middle was wearing a blue gown, with a gentle and elegant expression, as if he was indifferent to the world, and he was looking at the mist below the rift valley with ease, with strong winds blowing up from time to time in the mist.
Qishui City's genius, Wuying Clan, Xiaoran.
The two people next to him were Shangguan Lin and Murong Yun.
"Aren't you here yet?" Xiaoran looked at the hundreds of thousands of cultivators around him as if talking to himself.
Shangguan Lin said: "Jian Ying Chenfeng's four disciples haven't arrived yet, but they are here."
He focused his gaze on three looming shadows in the mist below across the rift.
It was really just three shadows.
But those three shadows gave people a feeling of being so powerful that they were invincible.
No one noticed when these three shadows appeared in the rift valley, as if the three shadows had been there for a long time. The strong wind in the rift valley blew on them, but they did not move at all.
Xiaoran smiled slightly and stared at the slightly graceful shadow in it, her eyes shining with strange light.
"Of course they will come, how could they miss such a good show?"
The Shadow Human Race, Yu Mo, and Ji Xian ranked 19th.
When Xiaoran stared at the three shadows, they also felt the eyes of the three shadows falling on Xiaoran and others, and a faint hostility filled the air.
The Shadowless Clan and the Shadowman Clan have a long-standing feud, and they are sworn enemies wherever they go.
No one on either side moved. The secret cultivation circles of the Shadowless Clan and the Shadow Human Clan were rarely known. They had been fighting secretly, but had never made it public.
Now hundreds of thousands of cultivators are gathered here, and they will not do anything extraordinary.
Uh-huh!
A figure fell next to Xiaoran, which made Shangguan Lin and Murong Yun look a little nervous, but after seeing the person in front of them clearly, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Taoist Chu Buqu's disciple, Chu Xiachi.
"What's wrong? Xiaoxiao, you're already in a tense situation before it even starts?" Chu Xiachi looked careless, sitting on a stone next to him, with his legs crossed indifferently.
Xiaoran smiled calmly: "There will always be a time to fight, there is no rush now."
In the distance, a powerful and hostile gaze fell on Chu Xiachi. The vigilant gaze seemed to split Chu Xiachi apart, but Chu Xiachi grinned and looked down at the middle of the room in a familiar manner. The shadow waved his hand and said: "Hello, sister Yumo."
His voice was not loud, but he believed that the other party could definitely hear it.
The fog in the rift valley became thicker and thicker, covering up the three shadows.
"It's really not polite at all. When I say hello, at least give me a response! You guys who hide their heads and show their tails are so boring." Chu Xiachi yawned.
Shangguan Lin frowned: "Are you talking about us too?"
"Yes! Isn't it obvious?" Chu Xiachi glanced at Shangguan Lin. The three of them had been standing in the shadows to prevent others from noticing the fact that they had no shadows.
"You-" Shangguan Lin was a little angry.
Xiaoran stopped Shangguan Lin and said, "Brother Chu, you should know what our purpose is this time, right?"
"I know, you want to cause trouble for Chengyan." Chu Xiachi lay down on the stone with his legs crossed and covered his eyes with two leaves to prevent direct sunlight.
Xiaoran said: "Not only Chengyan, but also Mu Yu."
"Mu Yu? Why?" Chu Xiachi asked.
"Chengyan must have told Mu Yu the secret of the Shangying Jue. The Shangying Jue is the supreme magic of our Shadowless Tribe. We will never allow outsiders to learn its secret." Xiaoran said.
Chu Xiachi sneered: "Shangying Jue is not only from your Shadowless Clan, but also from the Shadowman Clan, right?"
The Shadowless Clan and the Shadow Human Clan practice the same techniques. The only difference is that the Shadowless Clan is dominated by humans, while the Shadow Human Clan is dominated by shadows.
Xiaoran was not angry when she heard Chu Xiachi's mocking tone, but said slowly: "So maybe we will join forces with those three guys from the Shadow Human Clan this time! After all, Chengyan and Mu Yu know, It is the top secret of our two races."
Chu Xiachi said with emotion: "Speaking of which, Jian Yingchenfeng's Heavenly Sword Jiuyin is several levels higher than your Shangying Jue. I don't think they can practice your Shangying Jue, so don't worry."
"Whether they practice or not is one thing, our secret is another. If the two of them know our secret, we will take it back," Xiaoran said.
"How to take them? Are you going to kill them? If they are so easy to kill, I think the people from the Soul Clan would have already taken action without waiting for you to take action." Chu Xiachi spoke very directly.
Xiaoran did not answer directly, but looked at Chu Xiachi and said, "Brother Chu, which side are you on?"
Chu Xiachi held a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth and said casually: "I am from the Third Heaven."
Xiaoran emphasized her tone and said, "Me too."
Whether they are the Shadow Human Clan or the Shadowless Clan, they are all normal human beings who have practiced the Shadow Technique and gone to different extremes.
"But your ancestors are not. Your position is not on the side of the third heaven." Chu Xiachi said.
His tone was full of sarcasm and ridicule.
Shangguan Lin and Murong Yun looked at Chu Xia Chi with strong hostility.
Xiaoran nodded slightly: "I understand."
Then Xiaoran laughed again: "The five people from the Soul Clan are very strong."
"Are you scared?" Chu Xiachi asked.
Xiaoran shook his head: "You should also know what the nine immortals mean. I just want to say that they are very strong, but Yu Mo and I are not weak. Do you understand?"
Chu Xiachi sat up again and put the two leaves into his sleeves. He looked at Xiaoran and raised his eyebrows: "You should know that Jian Yingchenfeng has more than two apprentices, right?"
"Of course I know, and I also know what's special about Ximen Xunfu and Wanwan, but so what? No matter how powerful they are, there are only six of them after all." Xiaoran said.
"Nine." Chu Xiachi said.
"Oh?" Xiaoran was a little surprised, "Even if you are included, there are only seven. How can there be nine?"
Chu Xiachi did not explain in detail. He seemed to be disdainful to explain anything, but said: "I think you have forgotten the special features of the Immortal Monument? High cultivation does not necessarily mean the final winner."
"The probability is very low."
"That could happen, too."
Chu Xiachi stood up, dusted off his pants, stretched out comfortably, covered his eyes with his hands, glanced at the sun in the sky, then looked at his shadow on the ground, raised his feet, and the shadow also He raised his foot and stamped it again, and the shadow also stamped its foot. Chu Xiachi said with satisfaction: "Fortunately, my shadow is very well-behaved, isn't it? Brother Shadow, follow me obediently, and I will win a lot from gambling in the future. Let’s have a good time and have a good time together.”
Talking about shadows in front of the Shadowless Clan is undoubtedly mocking them. Shangguan Lin and Murong Yun had shown murderous intent, but Chu Xiachi didn't care about their looks at all and left on his own.
It wasn't until Chu Xiachi disappeared into the crowd in the distance that Shangguan Lin spoke up: "Young Master, why don't you kill him? You are already in the Mahayana stage now, so you should be able to kill him, right?"
Shangguan Lin's voice was filled with anger. In his opinion, if Chu Xiachi was killed, Chu Xiachi would have nothing to do with the rest of the plan.
"Without a shadow, you're too young to kill me!"
Chu Xiachi's voice suddenly came from a distance, like a line, and went straight into Shangguan Lin's ears. Shangguan Lin was shocked. He felt as if his ears were next to a huge golden bell. Being knocked hard, his eardrums suffered a huge impact. His entire face turned extremely red, and blood had seeped out of his ears.
Shangguan Lin took several steps back in shock and anger, stepping out of the shadow of the boulder. His shadowless body looked extremely strange under the sunlight.
"He has also reached the Mahayana stage!"
Shangguan Lin looked around in confusion. Chu Xiachi's voice seemed to ring in his ears just now, but he didn't find where Chu Xiachi was.
None of the surrounding immortals noticed Shangguan Lin's abnormality, as if Chu Xiachi's words were just for him. This powerful ability has exceeded Shangguan Lin's imagination.
"Do you understand why now?" Xiaoran said lightly.
Xiaoran never underestimates his opponents, especially Chu Xiachi, whom he has always known. But he understood that the most important opponent was not Chu Xiachi, but Mu Yu and the four of them. They were younger than Xiaoran and Chu Xiachi, but their cultivation was not weak at all. This was the most disappointing thing. He's afraid of it.
He stared at the thick fog below the Jixian Rift Valley, where the Shadow People had just hidden, his eyes were deep and he didn't know what he was thinking.
However, at this moment, a burst of noise suddenly sounded in the distance, attracting the attention of all cultivators.
