After much persuasion, Long Yu finally convinced everyone else that he was fine.
This also made Long Yu extremely mysterious in the eyes of everyone. He was only at the seventh level of True Spirit, but he was able to survive in the hands of Yu Ruyan, who was at the ninth level of True Spirit, without suffering any injury. It was a miracle.
No one knew how Long Yu managed to block the two moves of the Great Sword King, and Long Yu did not say either.
It’s better not to let others know about such a heaven-defying martial art as Dragon Bird Flash!
"Long Yu, don't feel too stressed. Zhentian Sect has never had a deputy sect leader before. Although you are the deputy sect leader now, it is just a title."
Bai Yunzong saw that Long Yu was quite concerned about this, so he reminded him.
"Um."
Long Yu nodded, finally feeling completely relieved.
He was really afraid that Bai Yunzong would ask him to stay and govern Zhentian Sect, which would be troublesome.
"By the way, you came back this time to participate in the Tianyu Holy Selection Qualifying Tournament, right?"
Bai Yunzong turned and asked.
"good."
Long Yu nodded again. Bai Yunzong really guessed everything.
"The Saint Selection Qualifying Tournament will be held in the Imperial City in a week. There will be an envoy from the Northern Court of Heavenly Mandate to supervise. No one is allowed to cheat. In addition to the three places for the three major families, our Great Tang Nation has a total of four Jianghu places that can be competed for."
Bai Yunzong groaned and said, "With your current strength, it is very easy to compete for this place in the martial arts world, but Xiaobu is still far behind."
Although Bu Xing is also at the seventh level of the True Spirit Secret Realm, his combat power is far inferior to Long Yu. It is not easy for him to seize a place in the Jianghu.
"No matter what, just give it a try. If it doesn't work, it's just because you don't have the talent, don't blame others."
Bu Xing walked aside and smiled, saying that he didn't really care about the matter.
"Yes, it is the Heavenly Divine Selection, but the competition is extremely fierce. Many people from the four nearby kingdoms, sixteen small kingdoms, and the two demon kingdoms will participate."
Bai Yunzong sighed, "Each of the four major kingdoms has thirty or forty places, and the sixteen small kingdoms also have seven or eight places each. Together with the Demon Kingdom, there are nearly four hundred people participating in the Heavenly Mandate Holy Selection. The Heavenly Mandate Holy Selection is held every seven years, but only twelve people are selected from them. It can be seen that the vast majority of people who participate in the Heavenly Mandate Holy Selection will be eliminated."
"I think Junior Brother Long is doing well this time."
Bu Xing glanced at Long Yu and said with a smile, "With Junior Brother Long's age and talent, he is definitely the best among these four hundred people. Even Yu Ruyan, who is at the ninth level of the True Spirit, couldn't do anything to Junior Brother Long, which shows how strong he is."
"That's hard to say."
Bai Yunzong shook his head: "There are quite a few people who have reached the ninth level of the True Spirit before the age of thirty within the jurisdiction of Tianyu North Court. Moreover, every seven years, there will be a few evil geniuses who reach the Heavenly Man Secret Realm before the age of thirty."
Martial artists who have reached the secret realm of heaven and man are almost certain to be selected into the Northern Court of Tianyu. This has already taken up several places. The remaining people want to compete for other places. Even those who are powerful enough to be at the ninth level of the True Spirit may not be sure of success, let alone Long Yu.
This reminded many people of the Star Sea Impeller, one of the Seven Disaster Stars that appeared at the Seven Sects Martial Arts Discussion two years ago.
Xinghai Ye Lun looks less than 30 years old, but he has already entered the secret realm of heaven and man. He can be called a genius on earth!
In Long Yu's mind, he thought of Tian Yutian and Lu Xiu whom he met in Beihai Kingdom. These two were undoubtedly geniuses. Among them, Tian Yutian had comprehended the rules of the Purple Light Heavenly Monument and was extremely powerful. He had almost no rivals under the Heavenly Realm.
There will definitely be many more such beings in the Holy Selection of Heaven!
“It’s really challenging.”
Long Yu was actually quite excited by Bai Yunzong and Bu Xing's words, and he was looking forward to the Holy Selection of Heavenly Mandate even more.
The powerful people he knew alone included Guigu Wing Envoy of the Xiangkong Tribe in the Hun Valley Demon Kingdom, and Jian Yi, a young powerful man of the ninth level of the True Spirit.
This sword wing once cut off Long Yu's Taiyin wings, causing him to fall into the Bone Abyss. Long Yu will avenge this sword sooner or later, and Tianyu's Holy Selection is a great opportunity.
"By the way, we have two more people from the Zhentian Sect who will be participating in this Tianyu Holy Selection Qualifying Tournament."
Soon, Bai Yunzong said with a happy look on his face.
There are two more
Long Yu was a little surprised. To participate in the Tianyu Saint Selection Qualifying Tournament, one must at least reach the state of unity of true spirit and soul before the age of thirty. In the Zhentian Sect, besides Bu Xing, who else can meet this condition
He glanced around and finally discovered that Bai Yunzong's other disciple, Buxing's senior brother, Li Bufan, had also reached the seventh level of True Spirit.
Li Bufan is Buxing's senior brother, but he became an elder of Zhentian Sect very early. Of course, Long Yu knows him, but he is not very familiar with him.
It was the other person who surprised Long Yu a little.
Yan Huanmo, dressed in a black dress, has actually entered the realm of unity of true spirit after two years. Moreover, she is only twenty-six or twenty-seven years old now, and is also qualified to participate in the Holy Selection of Heavenly Mandate.
"In this way, we, the Zhentian Sect, have four people who can participate in the qualifying round of the Tianyu Holy Selection. Good luck to everyone."
Bai Yunzong laughed, feeling quite relieved.
"Our Zhentian Sect is developing well."
The middle-aged man Yu Shengshi smiled and said, "I still remember that seven years ago and fourteen years ago, no one from our sect could participate in the Tianyu Holy Selection Qualifying Tournament. I heard that twenty-one years ago, Hei Lao participated. I didn't expect that there would be four this year."
These words made Long Yu a little surprised, and he looked at Hei Lao who was standing aside without saying a word.
Hei Lao is about fifty years old. I didn’t expect that he had participated in the qualifying competition of Tianyu Holy Selection twenty-one years ago!
"Hei Lao participated in more than just the qualifying round. He actually qualified and stepped onto that stage. Unfortunately..."
As Bai Yunzong spoke, he couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.
"The chosen ones are as strong as the forest."
Hei Lao finally spoke, but he still couldn't change his style of being frugal with words: "If you participate, you must be cautious."
Having entered the realm of unity of true spirit and soul twenty-one years ago, Hei Lao’s talent is definitely not bad.
However, now he is still only at the eighth level of True Spirit cultivation. It can be said that he has made almost no progress in the past twenty years. This is absolutely unscientific.
Long Yu secretly wondered, could it be that during the Tianyu Holy Selection, Hei Lao encountered some accident and suffered some internal injuries
This was something that was not known to many people, and it seemed that Hei Lao had no intention of telling anyone else, so Long Yu could only give up.
Not long after, the people who had gathered at Ling Family Villa rushed back to Zhentian Sect.
However, to their surprise, the expected scene of being besieged by Emperor Wuzong of Tang did not occur. Instead, Long Yu was surrounded by the people of Zhentian Sect, who asked him all kinds of questions.
Be it Ling Han or Lu Guanming, Liu Yuan or Ling Yiyue, none of them had expected that Long Yu could fight against the entire Tang Wuzong on his own and drive them all away!
"Brother Chi didn't come?"
Long Yu glanced at the crowd and didn't see Chi Xiaoxue and his men.
"No, he said he believes in you, little brother Long, and will stay at Ling Family Villa."
Wen Lun, who came with everyone else, said with a gentle smile.
"By the way, Senior Wen, you must have worked hard on this long journey. Later, we will head to the Tang Dynasty Imperial City to find my adoptive father."
Long Yu said to Wen Lun.
"It's not hard. For a martial artist, what's the big deal about walking such a short distance?"
Wen Lun waved his hand, signaling Long Yu not to be polite, and then said: "In Beihai Country, my father and I have no place to stay. Since Brother Long is willing to take us in, then I, Wen Lun, will do my best to assist your adoptive father."
Wen Lun knew very well what Long Yu's purpose was in bringing him back.
Hearing this, Long Yu felt relieved.
"Then let's go."
Long Yu nodded, then spoke to the others.
There are quite a few people who want to go to the Tang Dynasty Imperial City together, including more than ten people besides Long Yu himself.
Wen Lun and his son Wen Ziyan will definitely go together. In addition, Yan Huanmo, Bu Xing and Li Bufan will participate in the qualifying round of Tianyu Holy Selection. Then there is Liu Yuan, who is going to the Feng family in the imperial city to visit her father. Feng Yuxin will also go back to the Feng family to visit.
Ling Han, Ling Yiyue and Lu Guanming also decided to follow Long Yu. They all felt that there would definitely be something interesting to watch when Long Yu went to the Tang Dynasty Imperial City and they should not miss it.
Although their cultivation is not very good, if they encounter any difficulties, they can at least do their best to help.
Of course, Long Yu would not refuse this.
A group of eleven people finally set out on the journey to the Tang Dynasty Imperial City.
…
The group traveled all night and finally arrived at the Tang Dynasty Imperial City when the sun just rose the next day.
"I don't know how my godfather has been doing these past two years."
Long Yu narrowed his eyes and looked at the Tang Dynasty Imperial City in front of him.
Two years ago, he was plotted against by Chu Chaosheng and forced away by the Star Sea Impeller of the Tianren Secret Realm. He wandered outside and experienced too many things.
Now that he has achieved success in martial arts and returned to the Tang Dynasty imperial city, his mood is completely different from before.
With his current strength, Chu Chaosheng didn't dare to attack him easily. The only ones who could defeat him were the strong men in the secret realm of heaven and man from the three top families.
As the Divine Selection was about to begin, even the strong ones in the Heavenly Realm did not dare to deal with a talented young man without authorization.
You must know that during this period of time, the entire Tang Dynasty Imperial City was supervised by envoys from the Northern Court of Tianyu.
"I'm afraid that the messenger from the Northern Court of Heavenly Decrees will target me during this process..."
Long Yu had a faint sense of worry in his heart. He still remembered that Xuanji Tianchen, who was also from the Northern Court of Tianyu, was very hostile towards him.
Everyone entered the imperial city and walked towards the Xinfeng family.
As soon as they approached the Xinfeng family, they saw a group of martial artists gathered at the gate of the Xinfeng family, making a lot of noise and seemed to be making a fuss about something.
"It's from the Lu family."
Someone immediately recognized the identities of the group of martial artists.
"Lu family?"
Long Yu narrowed his eyes and thought of Lu Fuzhi who was buying and selling the world. Lu Fuzhi bought the meteorite law at a low price, but retreated at the critical moment and broke his promise and did not show up to help.
Even when he was escaping from Mix City, he was blocked by Lu Fuzhi, who repaid his kindness with enmity.
The Lu family is a completely treacherous family!
Who would have thought that now, the people from the Lu family had cultivated the Meteorite Law, and had become so arrogant that they were actually making noise and causing trouble at the gate of the Feng family!
