"Brother, let's drink a glass of water."
When Wang Lu was struggling in the special training in hell, the atmosphere of the Wanfa Xianmen exchange team in the pink building of Lingchi Peak was bleak.
Zhan Ziye's defeat in the semi-finals was beyond everyone's expectations. The rare genius who was regarded as the hope of the sect for hundreds of years by the immortal sect unexpectedly lost to a man with similar training time but whose background was not as good as his own. Stupid and cute girl, if she didn't witness it with her own eyes, it would be hard for anyone to win her trust.
The failure of this fight brought an almost devastating blow to the morale of the disciples of Wanfa Xianmen. The group couldn't even remember how they returned to the Pink Building from the Yunlu rooftop. They only remembered that after regaining consciousness, the five masters The brothers were all pale and had nothing to say.
After all, Hai Yunfan had the best mentality. After sighing, he even forgot about the hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones he had lost so badly, and acted as an encourager in the team.
He was not in a hurry to talk about the wonderful but tragic battle, but just poured a cup of hot water for each senior brother and senior sister, brought some snacks, and said some irrelevant gossip, a little bit to ease the atmosphere... But the effect is not enough Jia, everyone seems to have been hit too hard, and simple methods can no longer work.
But when Hai Yunfan was considering whether to ask the elder for help, he heard the senior brother speak.
"This time, I failed everyone."
Zhan Ziye's voice was heavy, but it still had the power to infect people's hearts. Ye Feifei and the others who were in a daze were all awakened.
"I am convinced of the defeat. The opponent is stronger than me. I have nothing to say about the defeat. In the past few years, I have been complacent in Xianmen. I only think that although the world is big, there are not many opponents... It’s really watching the sky from a well.”
As Zhan Ziye spoke, he shook his head at the younger brothers and younger sisters who were trying to comfort him: "After the battle, I repeated the deduction hundreds of times in my heart. I fight, out of a hundred games, I can win at most ten or so, there is a real gap in strength between the two sides... I really don't know how she practiced."
In fact, why did Zhan Ziye need to say these words? Anyone who has witnessed that battle with their own eyes can see that Liulixian's strength is indeed superior to that of her opponent. She perfectly covered up the lack of defense with her sword heart's ever-changing, and she had a clear mind during the battle. Clean, without any interference, absolutely impeccable. Although Zhan Ziye's defeat was only one move away, the distance of this move was real, and it was not due to accidental factors such as luck.
However, realizing this makes people even more discouraged. Everyone came here with the mentality of being crushed, but now they are being crushed on the stage. The arrogance in the bone marrow was shaken. I thought that the current generation of disciples would be enough to stand at the top of the world of cultivating immortals in Kyushu, but now I see there are still people above the top... It seems to be seeing an unknown sky that I have never imagined, which is frightening.
However, at this moment, Zhan Ziye showed a smile that reassured the younger brothers and younger sisters.
That is in the fairy gate, whenever he encounters difficulties, as a big brother, he will stand up and show a smile.
"Wanfa Xianmen is not an arrogant, lawless and barbaric sect. We are scholars, but what are the principles of academics?"
The juniors answered subconsciously: "Discover the unknown, understand the unknown, and predict the unknown."
"That's right, so for those who are stronger than us, we should take the initiative to learn and improve ourselves with an exploration mentality."
"Well… "
"So I'm going to find Liulixian to exchange my experience on cultivating immortals, so brothers and sisters should have a good rest."
Zhan Ziye said in a deep voice, turned into lightning, and headed towards Tongming Peak, leaving behind a group of stunned disciples.
—
Zhan Ziye rode the thunder light and went straight to Tongming Peak, but just halfway there, Zhan Ziye's expression changed.
Ahead, master Yuan Chaonian's mana fluctuations faintly passed over, blocking his way, this is the master's silent reminder to himself that this way is blocked.
Zhan Ziye was full of annoyance: Master is actually in Tongming Peak? And what did he stop him from doing? What a learning and exchange opportunity this is! How can a master stop a disciple from sincerely pursuing learning
On the other side, on Tongming Peak, Yuan Chaonian shook his head and smiled: "I made the elders laugh at me, my ineffective apprentice."
In front of him were the Second Elder Liu Xian, Fourth Elder Zhou Ming and Ninth Elder Hua Yun of the Spirit Sword Sect.
After the two semi-finals, Wanfa Xianmen's defeat was decided, and the original arrogance disappeared instantly. Naturally, the thing asked by Shengjing had never happened, and the exchange activities between the two factions were finally on the right track.
Yuan Chaonian's trip to Tongming Peak was also a gesture of goodwill on behalf of the sect—even though he himself felt angry, among the three elders in the party, only he had the emotional intelligence to handle this situation, and the other two were replaced. , must fight with people on Tongming Peak. The topic of Yuan Chaonian's exchange on this trip is the education of the sect's disciples.
Once we talked about it, Yuan Chaonian realized that he had indeed underestimated the Spirit Sword Sect. These elders may have been as cultivated as himself, but they each had their own strengths in educating disciples, which benefited them a lot. Posture is better than what you do yourself.
Liu Xian said: "Elder Yuan is too self-effacing. That child Zhan Ziye has practiced for eight years, and he has comprehended all kinds of dharma. He has practiced the five thunder scriptures of the immortal grade to such a level. Few people in the world can match his aptitude and comprehension." .”
"The sect has indeed placed high hopes on him. Since the incident seventeen years ago, there have been countless talents cultivating immortals in Kyushu, but there are very few who can truly lead the future of Wujue. We, Wanfa Xianmen, are already quite fortunate , but I don’t want your Spirit Sword Sect to gain more than us.”
Yuan Chaonian said, a little envious: "Spirit Sword Sect is now the last of the five top sects, but with a genius like Liuli Xian, it should be able to advance one or two ranks in a year."
The elders of Lingjian did not comment on Yuan Chaonian's so-called end of the Five Jue, but Zhou Ming said: "Liu Lixian's child has good aptitude and comprehension, but he is not a character capable of taking on great responsibilities. If you really put the future of the sect on her , after a hundred years, the Spirit Sword Sect may end."
"Master, is the Spirit Sword Sect going to end?" While speaking, Liuli Fairy in a long dress drifted over, her big eyes sparkling with innocence, "Then what should we do when we eat?"
Zhou Ming scolded angrily: "You idiot, you only know how to eat! Go back and practice the flying sword incarnation for me for another hour... Don't come back until we finish talking!"
The girl's face drooped suddenly: "Oh, I see."
After dealing with Liulixian, Zhou Ming smiled wryly and said, "I made Elder Yuan laugh."
Yuan Chaonian, however, looked enviously at the retreating back of Liuli Xian: "The heart is pure, and the whole body is like Liuli. With such aptitude, it's no wonder that he can inherit the ancient inheritance... But I think this sword-heart-clear skill has a lot to do with the ancient inheritance." There is a big difference, the rumored weaknesses of Jianxin Tongming have been subtly made up for."
Zhou Ming smiled and said nothing.
Yuan Chaonian added: "However, I understand what Elder Zhou said. With such a mind, you can certainly make great progress on the road of cultivating immortals, but you are not competent as a leader of a faction... So, your faction intends to train Wang Lu seriously?"
When Wang Lu was mentioned, the expressions of the elders present were a little unnatural.
Yuan Chaonian said: "Compared to Liuli Immortal, Wang Lu is indeed witty and versatile, but his methods are not the right way after all, and his cultivation level is also a lot worse. Although the first two lucky victories, but in all fairness, the kind that simply emphasizes defense and survival The cultivation method is not the right way, right?"
The faces of several elders were even more strange.
But Yuan Chaonian became more and more curious as he talked: "I heard that Wang Lu was a teacher of Wuxiang Peak, and the master of Wuxiang Peak only has a golden core cultivation base... I think since Wang Lu has such strengths, even if his aptitude for cultivating immortals is not the best, it is not necessary. Let him be handed over to an incompetent master? What's more, Wang Lu is talented and can take on great responsibilities in the future."
"Cut, you are not good enough!" Ninth Elder Huayun was a little annoyed when she heard Yuan Chaonian slandering her senior sister, "You are also an elder of Wujue, why do you judge people by the realm of cultivation? What's wrong with Jindan? You are still beaten all over the floor Find a tooth!"
Yuan Chaonian was annoyed in his heart, but when he saw Hua Yun's face full of anger, but still beautiful, his anger dissipated immediately.
Heh, maybe there is something special about that woman in white that I didn't see? However, blindly seeking defense and survival is too useless, even in the Ten Thousand Arts Immortal Gate, purely defensive skills have always been unpopular. Maybe the fifth elder really has some way to use his golden core cultivation base to resist the spell of the Huashen elder, but it would be a joke to say that he beat himself all over the place.
What's more, although the Kyushu is big, who dares to say that their defense is foolproof? One day someone will find a flaw, and then there will be no room for mediation, so why bother? It's a pity that Wang Lu's child, no matter what his spiritual root aptitude is, his understanding alone is enough to make Yuan Chaonian love talents, but now he has embarked on an evil path.
If he hadn't obtained the true identity, he really wanted to just dig into the Ten Thousand Laws Sect. Among other things, among the Immortal Sect, whether it is a disciple or an elder, they are generally weak in dealing with the world, and they really need a witty and changeable character. Now the head is more optimistic about Hai Yunfan, but compared with Wang Lu, Hai Yunfan seems to lack a bit of taste...
But the strange thing is, it is said that Wang Lu just placed a bet with the people from Xuantian Pavilion not long ago, betting all his wealth on himself, so he is so confident that he can win? The people in Xuantian Pavilion are not vegetarians, if they want to play tricks and gamble, even Wujue disciples can't afford the consequences, what is he thinking
Feeling puzzled, Yuan Chaonian took the opportunity to ask.
Hua Yun replied: "We don't know either, but that boy Wang Lu will definitely not let himself suffer, he is an apprentice taught by the senior sister."
Yuan Chaonian couldn't help but asked again: "He is only at the top level of Qi training, can he be stronger than Liuli Xian?"
Hua Yun said: "Theoretically, it's definitely not as good, but after all, he is Wang Lu. Against him, Little Liuli is not good enough... Oh, Fourth Senior Brother, don't mind."
Zhou Ming smiled wryly: "To be honest, I don't have enough confidence in Liuli. It's nothing else. If Fifth Junior Sister also taught Wang Lu that trick, that idiot Liuli will really die this time."
Hua Yun wondered: "Impossible? Isn't it necessary for Yuanshen to have a state of half-empty and half-real to use it? Wang Lu is still far behind, right? And the senior sister said that she can't use that trick, and no one else will even try it. No need to try! But speaking of it, Wang Lu may be an exception, his temperament is similar to that of senior sister, so it's hard to guess."
Yuan Chaonian became more and more confused: Yuanshen is half false and half real? What are you going to do, swear a heart demon? But what's the use of swearing a demon oath? Although the Heart Demon Oath has the usage of equivalent transactions, the stronger the binding force, the more and more expensive things are sacrificed, the greater the compensation will be. Moreover, most of this compensation is a permanent effect, so the short-term effect is limited. Want to use this to make up for the huge gap in strength between the two sides within two days... How strong must this oath be? I'm afraid it will affect normal operations! Moreover, the heart demon's oath cannot be played with words, and the person who made the oath must recognize his sacrifice in his heart before he can be compensated. For example, if someone vows never to speak again for the rest of his life, but still speaks, and then explains to himself in his heart, I am not trying to speak, but to make some syllables, as for how these syllables are combined, it is the audience's business and has nothing to do with me... Congratulations, In the next moment, this person will be haunted by demons and die with a headshot. The heart demon swears that you can't deceive yourself and others.
It was also thanks to Yuan Chaonian's background in the Wanfa Immortal Sect, which is well-informed and knowledgeable, that he could think of these things in a flash. If it were an ordinary monk, he would never have thought of the demon's oath. However, even Yuan Chaonian never expected that there are many other usages of the Heart Demon Oath.
"Forget it, what's the use of thinking so much? Let's wait and see in two days. By the way... it's time to make some preparations for the team battle. The single-player battle is completely lost, and the team battle still has a chance to come back."
—
Two days passed in a flash.
During this period, many things happened, such as more and more monks sent out to enter Lingjian Mountain, preparing to watch the upcoming peak battle. For example, under the suggestion of an elder, the Spirit Sword Sect began to charge sky-high tickets for these spectators, and was accused of being shameless. For example, under the operation of someone with a heart, the popularity of the final gambling game is soaring, and the gambling money has become astronomical. For example, the person in charge of the gambling game in Xuantian Pavilion has also been replaced by the regional director of Cangxi Prefecture—a person who is capable of turning into a god. Overhaul to make sure no one is cheating on the game.
For example, Liu Lixian and Wang Lu didn't show up for two days, and they retreated separately, and even their senior brothers who had a good relationship with them couldn't see each other.
For example, the enthusiastic onlookers talked about the future of the game, and each held their own opinions.
After witnessing the real pinnacle duel in the semi-finals, most people are optimistic about Liulixian. Her cultivation, skills, and even her flawless fighting spirit on the stage, Liulixian is like a legend, making it impossible for people to imagine her defeat. possible.
As for Wang Lu, the previous two battles were indeed exciting, but they also exposed his true strength. Without the assistance of Mind Attack Technique, he is just a little monk with top-grade qi training, with outstanding defense and anti-injury skills, but it is not worth mentioning under Liu Lixian's sword heart.
Even Wang Lu's supporters believed that Wang Lu would definitely not be an opponent if he did not make any insidious tricks and fought openly and squarely. And in the finals, how easy is it to come up with dirty tricks
But in the first two battles, which one was not won by unexpected means when people were not optimistic about it? Miraculous Wang Lu, this name has been quietly spread.
Amid all the attention, the finals kicked off.
It was still the Yunlu rooftop, and it was still full of voices. The most favored fairy Liuli arrived early. The gorgeous dress could not hide the sharp sword intent that the girl had cultivated for a long time, and her state was at its peak at this time.
On the other side, Wang Lu's resting place was empty. Seeing that the competition was about to start, Wang Lu himself did not show up for a long time. The real Fengyin who presided over the final snorted: "Don't dawdle."
At the same time, far away at the Wuxiang Peak, a certain woman in white heard the urging of her senior brother, so she smiled helplessly: "Wang Lu, I am urging you to come to the door."
"Okay." Wang Lu replied lightly, the magic talisman in his hand ignited, and disappeared instantly.
A moment later, a weary sigh came from Wuxiang Peak.
"Senior Sister, you have really taken in a great apprentice, and in less than two days, you actually managed to train him."
There was also a trace of loss and bewilderment on the face of the woman in white.
"I... have been cultivating immortals for more than a hundred years, and this is the first time I have seen someone who is more shameless than me! This kid is indeed the son of destiny, and he has a bright future."
After finishing speaking, there was another wry smile: "Junior brother, please help clean up the battlefield."
At the top of the Wuxiang Peak where the two stood, the originally flat ground was already full of potholes, as if it had been ravaged by a violent force.
—
On the Yunlu rooftop, there was only less than a cup of tea before the start of the competition. While many people were waiting impatiently, Wang Lu arrived late.
Because he didn't have the ability to fly immortals and control swords, Wang Lu suddenly appeared on the stage with the teleportation talisman inside the mountain gate, which immediately attracted a lot of surprised eyes.
Different from the previous two battles, Wang Lu was wearing a dark long coat, and there was some mystery hidden in it, while he himself had a calm complexion, with a smile on his mouth, and strode up to the cloud platform.
On the cloud platform, Liuli Xian has been waiting for a long time, and the girl is like a sharp sword, with an astonishing sword intent rushing towards her face.
Wang Lu faced the sword intent directly, but he was like a spring breeze. His steps were not chaotic. He walked to his position and smiled.
Seeing that the two sides stood still, Master Fengyin made the final confirmation in a deep voice: "Are you ready?"
Liu Lixian raised her hand high: "Oh!"
Wang Lu nodded: "The plug-in renewal is completed...you can fight anytime!"
"Then, the game begins!"
As soon as the words fell, Wang Lu moved his feet, his figure was like the wind, and the Kunshan sword came out in his hand, pointing directly at Liulixian, it was a pre-emptive strike!
