"They're dying, let's go together!"
At the easternmost end of Xiazhi Island, in a white tower for viewing the scenery, Lin Junlong stood on the steps, flying up and down with a green steel sword, making the best use of the narrow space, forcing back more than a dozen people. attack.
And at the only window of the tower, Qin Sheng grasped the big black bamboo as thick as his arm, stabbed, slammed, wrapped, circled, blocked, pounced, tapped, and danced airtightly, guarding the dangerous high ground.
Finally, at the top of the tower was Sun Wen's battlefield. His sword had been damaged, so he simply used his fists to meet the enemy. "Nine Prefaces to the Mind" is a relatively slanted effort for traditional Taoism, but it is extremely authentic for sectarians.
When he swung his fist, there was a strange traction, which seemed to be able to change the attack trajectory of the opponent, and he always avoided it in a narrow way without touching himself.
All three of them were pale, obviously they were reaching their limit, and they were just trying their best to hold on.
The fight went from night to dawn, and from dawn to night. The island is dotted with lights, accompanied by all kinds of weapons clashing and shouting, making the night full of a wild and primitive atmosphere.
"puff!"
Lin Junlong was under the greatest pressure, and he had already used countless swords. Finally, when he pushed aside a flying thorn, his strength was insufficient, his wrist softened, and the flying thorn pierced his shoulder.
The center of gravity suddenly lost, the face door opened wide, followed by four or five attacks, and blood spurted wildly.
"Go up! Hurry up!"
"Catch those two!"
Qin Sheng and Sun Wen also made mistakes of varying degrees, and the situation collapsed instantly. More than twenty people flocked here, with bloodshot eyes, full of desire and madness for victory—they were equally exhausted and suffering.
Sun Wen jumped down and squeezed back to back with Qin Sheng, with deep helplessness in his eyes. After persevering for so long, I will finally face failure. I am not reconciled!
And they fought for a long time, no one noticed, the night has gradually passed, and there is a faint light in the sky. Following this faint light, another female voice came:
"The time limit is up, the big competition is over, everyone stop!"
Ga!
The more than twenty people suddenly changed their colors and turned their heads to look, only to see a red sun jumping out of the sea, emitting a radiant light. The small Xiazhi Island was wrapped in light, and the air was filled with the early morning glow and the strong smell of blood gathered from all sides.
This also means that the competition, which lasted for five months, is finally over!
"Brother, what should we do?"
Everyone looked at one person, and that person had a ferocious face, and shouted: "Don't worry, grab the jade token quickly!"
"good!"
They were even more reconciled, they all stepped forward with the fucker, and then flew out one by one in the next second, and fell hard under the tower.
"Those who have obtained the jade tokens must gather at the Bailou!" the voice said again, and then disappeared.
thump! thump!
The three of Lin Junlong couldn't hold on any longer, they fell to the ground, gasping for breath, and looked at each other again, secretly thinking they were lucky. And those people didn't dare to offend again, or looked lonely, or resentful, and slowly left here.
After the three of them regained some strength, they went to the Bailou with their arms.
The White House is the biggest symbol of Xiazhi Island, and there is a large square nearby. They walked slowly all the way, met many contestants who were in similar situations, looked at each other, looked at each other with wry smiles, and then the pride and show off of the winners surged.
More than 70,000 people participated, 50,000 were eliminated on board, 18,000 in the first stage, 3,000 in the second stage, and only 100 people remained in the end!
Being able to achieve such a record, this force, is enough to brag about for a lifetime!
…
In the twelfth year of the Xianyuan calendar, in mid-September, autumn.
This originally unknown Xiazhi Island will become a milestone, standing on the East China Sea forever, and will be remembered by Xia Guo monks.
And at this moment, on the big square in the middle of the island, the hundred people who won the battle gathered here. They were exhausted, their bodies were in a mess, their clothes were torn, and their bodies were covered in blood, but none of them sat down to adjust their breathing, and they all poked there straight.
This is their glory!
As the sun gradually rose, more and more people landed on the island, and they all gathered around the square to watch the ceremony. Lin Junlong raised his eyes and found Taoist Huayang, the abbot of Taiqing Palace, first.
It was he who put himself in the door a few years ago.
The Taoist's eyes also turned to this side. When the master and apprentice touched each other, one was full of approval, and the other was respectful and proud. After that, Lin Junlong discovered many familiar, unfamiliar and half-baked faces.
For example, Shi Yunlai, Zhang Shouyang and others from the Taoist Academy.
Li Qingzhi (Baiyun Temple), Zhang Jintong (Tianshi Mansion), Wu Songbai (Maoshan) and others from Taoism.
Former classmates He He, Xu Ziying and others.
Zeng Ke'er, You Yu and others from Phoenix Mountain.
Liaodong's small sect Shenlingmen and others...
It can be said that the core figures of all parties in the Xia Kingdom are here, and there are countless eliminated people standing on the outskirts, even unable to stand on Xiazhi Island, and ran to several nearby deserted islands.
Can't see, can't hear clearly, but just picture the atmosphere.
Seeing this scene, a hundred people couldn't help but look dazed, uncontrollable excitement and tension burst out from the bottom of their hearts, and numbness occupied every nerve line, the more they scratched, the more itchy, the more they scratched, the body began to light trembling.
It’s like when you went to school when you were young, some big leaders came to inspect, and the school asked you to present flowers and wear a red scarf or something... This mentality is just two words, so soft!
Nearly 10,000 people in the audience were whispering and talking quietly.
After waiting for about half a quarter of an hour, there was a sudden silence in the arena, only to feel two majestic auras coming, a man and a woman seemed to be banished from the sky, falling from the clouds, it was Lu Yuanqing and Long Qiu.
"..."
Most people's eyes were wide open, including those monks on the outer island, staring at the two without blinking.
Immortal!
He only hears his name but doesn't see his face, the immortal who exists at the top of the world!
They didn't dare to make any noise, but they couldn't restrain the excitement in their hearts, so that their facial expressions, hair, limbs, and muscles all appeared in a subtle state of being out of control.
Spreading to this sea area, there are more than 70,000 people, with the direction of their hearts, and many complicated thoughts gathered together, it seems to be twisted into a thick invisible column of air, going straight to the sky, stirring the nine layers of clouds, and cosmic induction.
"Almost started."
Gu Yu suddenly opened his eyes, jumped out of the whale boat, and landed on a distant island. Xiao Zhai and Xiao Jin also followed, and the three of them looked into the distance, only to feel something swimming towards them.
The aura of that thing has been increasing and accumulating all the way, and it is so thick that it is almost solid, and it also forms a column of aura that soars into the sky, facing this side far away.
And between the two places, there are only a hundred miles left!
…
"In this big competition, a hundred winners will be determined, and they will step forward one by one..."
Lu Yuanqing spoke a few opening words and went straight to the core link. The contestants all have registration records, and even though there is no preparation time, he can match the prizes directly.
"Old mother Gong Le Yue!"
The first one to be called was a female crown in her early twenties, her bun was messed up, she simply stroked it, walked up to the front upright, and saluted: "I have seen Master Lu!"
"Um."
Lu Yuanqing nodded slightly, waved his sleeves, and presented a generous reward. In addition to the various pills and talismans promised earlier, there is one more thing, a silver silk soft bag.
"This thing is called Qiankun bag, it can hold all kinds of things, and it is innately usable."
Buzz buzz!
The crowd suddenly became excited again, especially the small sects and loose cultivators, their foundations were weak, and the Qiankun bag, which was very common at the two giants, was already a rare treasure at home.
This level of generosity is too good!
When Le Yue retreated, Long Qiu also called out: "Sun Wen!"
If there is no prefix, it means that it is a loose cultivator. Out of a hundred people, casual cultivators only accounted for seven, and all of them were the focus of the topic.
Sun Wen paused for a moment, then stepped forward bravely, "I've seen Master Long!"
"You are very good."
This sentence is clearly stated, and there is a secret phrase behind it, "It didn't disappoint me."
Sun Wen, or Bai Xinwen was taken aback, feeling complicated, and could only say, "Thank you, Master!"
In this way, one by one came forward to receive it, and everyone soon discovered that this ratio was not right! I thought that the two giants would make a round, but it turned out:
Phoenix Mountain has 30 seats, Daoist Academy has 26 seats, Palace Temple has 20 seats, Folk Dharma Lineage has 17 seats, and Loose Cultivators has 7 seats.
And the eliminated ones found that those ruthless gangs that frightened them, like Tang Bole, He He, Xu Ziying, etc., all disappeared and stood around watching.
oh! Only then did they understand the significance of this competition. In the whispered whispers, they looked at Lu Yuanqing and Long Qiu differently.
Before, fear was greater than respect, but now the word respect is in front, and I am convinced.
This atmosphere climbed to a new climax in an instant after receiving the award. Lu Yuanqing first signaled to Long Qiu, and Long Qiu said please please, he stepped forward with a clear voice covering the whole island:
"It has been twelve years since the reappearance of the Daoist Law... 90% of the monks in the world have gathered here to participate in the grand event... Everyone has different opportunities, and those who are lucky enough to walk ahead must not be short-sighted and self-destruct. Phoenix Mountain has decided to hold a grand competition three years later and choose 300 winners!"
boom!
The audience was ebullient, but before they could digest the news, Long Qiu also said: "From then on, at the end of each year, Phoenix Mountain will hold a Dao Dharma Conference to exchange arguments and compare skills. This year is scheduled for December, everyone. Everyone can come."
Boom boom boom!
The atmosphere at the scene was like waves, one wave was higher than the other, until it was surging and continuous, pushing everyone's emotions to the peak.
What are small sects and casual cultivators most afraid of? It's just my wild way, and my cultivation is wrong.
The so-called Fa Conference, of course, will not teach the real core exercises, but it can also clear up doubts for oneself and avoid many detours. And those disciples from all walks of life who are bored in the Taoist temple all day are also very excited. Every year in the future, they will have the opportunity to go down the mountain to compete with their colleagues for certification.
These two news spread from the field to the field, and from the field to the outer island.
Those monks who were resting, waiting, and bored on the deserted island, big or small... couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and they all felt a strange feeling.
The law is not taught lightly, which is the foundation of orthodoxy, and they understand it.
Opportunities are determined by God, some people have good luck, some people have bad luck, the same cannot be forced.
Putting these two factors aside, Phoenix Mountain and Taoist Temple have achieved the ultimate. Now the government is retreating behind the scenes, ignoring cultivation and doing things, and the two giants are in charge, but they don't take care of themselves, they are open-minded and open-minded, and their repeated actions are all actions of the great way!
This feeling and this scene can be regarded as the coming of the prosperous age!
"Alas!"
"Buzz buzz... buzz buzz!"
Suddenly, several cheers sounded from a certain deserted island, and in a blink of an eye, they joined together and quickly spread to the surroundings, including all the outer islands.
Tens of thousands of people cheered in unison, some understood, some did not understand, but they were all infected by the atmosphere, converging into a strong surge of sound, full of passion and expectation, which spread from outside to inside to the entire square.
boom!
Immediately afterwards, an even more tremor, a wave that was a hundred times more intense hit. Lu Yuanqing and Long Qiu soared into the sky, as well as Gu Yu, Jiang Xiaozhai, Xiao Jin, and Magnolia Pearl hidden in the dark, even Wu Shan, who lost his physical body and was not considered a fairy in Tianzhu Mountain, felt it...
The six immortals, looking at the East China Sea together, are exactly:
The world gathers the weather, and the spirit falls in the emptiness.
The Yin and Yang of the universe move, and the sun and the moon turn to the sky.
Jiaolong goes deep into the sea, and the tide comes in the east wind.
