"Discussion meeting?" Xiao Chunmian paused for a moment, and didn't ask what kind of discussion is this meeting, but asked, "Does Master want to send disciples to participate?"
"Hey," Zhao Lian waved his hand, "I want to just squeeze all of you in, but unfortunately, our sect leader said that this is not conducive to improving the enthusiasm of the disciples of the sect, so we insist on not allowing us to make a default quota."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Xiao Chunmian and smiled again, "If you are really interested, go and look at the task card. The new task that was posted two days ago is the warm-up for this Dao Discussion Conference."
With Zhao Lian's words, Xiao Chunmian took a detour after leaving Black Rock Peak, first went to the square of Sun Yao Peak to find the task card.
From a distance, I saw the golden light of the task card, and it was even specially added with special effects. Walking up to him, he saw that there was indeed a very eye-catching new task hanging on it, the name of the task was four big characters that can be easily recognized at a glance - Mennei Dabi.
The detailed content reads that in order to improve the disciples' enthusiasm for cultivation and the sense of belonging to the sect, the Xuanyang Sect's once-in-ten-year sect competition is about to start, and the two-month registration period will start from now on, and it will be held in half a year. The official start of the competition, please prepare early, sign up actively, focus on participation, and strive to win the championship.
After the mobilization words were over, the more exciting thing came: a whole row of reward lists.
In addition to the huge contribution value, the first place in the competition will also get a top-quality flying sword personally forged by the master of Jindan, the second place will get a self-defense magic weapon, the third place will be a jade pendant, and the fourth place will be a flying sword. Xisui Dan, the fifth name is a set of five ancient talismans. Looking along the way, all the rewards in the top ten can make people's heart beat.
Even Xiao Chunmian squinted her eyes for a long while.
After the top ten, there are no more coveted magic tools, pills, talismans, but those contribution points and spirit stones are enough to make every Xuanyang sect disciple eager to gear up.
At the end of the list of rewards, it says that apart from the ones already listed, there are other surprises for the top 20 in the Grand Competition.
Xiao Chunmian stared at the "another surprise" for a moment, then smiled: It seems that the top 20 in this competition are the tickets for the Dao Discussion Conference of the Five Sects.
Then Xiao Chunmian took out the jade slips, recorded the list of rewards, put them in the storage bag, and then began to return to Tianjing Peak where Yu Qiu was.
Once at the foot of Tianjing Peak, before going up the mountain, Xiao Chunmian unexpectedly saw a familiar figure.
The so-called jealousy when meeting a rival in love refers to the current situation.
"Isn't this our great genius of comprehension?" Gao Conghan started to feel strange as soon as he greeted him, and deliberately raised his head to look up to the sky, pointing his chin at Xiao Chunmian, "Why, our great number one is willing to come back? Hmm ?”
Xiao Chunmian chuckled, "Junior Brother Gao."
The word "junior brother" is his counterattack. He and Gao Conghan entered the school in the same year, so it's a bit nondescript when talking about seniors, but you can always find something to say. For example, he is an inmate disciple, and Gao Conghan is an ordinary inner disciple, so this junior can afford it.
Apart from this difference, a person with a high level can also call a person with a low level a junior.
So Gao Conghan raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, and finally he was willing to look over, "Why be so polite, if you really want to talk about this seniority, you also..." He paused suddenly, only then did he realize that Xiao Chunmian had already built a base.
"What about me too?" Xiao Chunmian smiled.
Gao Conghan was stunned for a long time before he hesitated and said, "Don't be complacent, I entered Taoism and established foundation earlier than you."
Xiao Chunmian smiled indifferently. Indeed, when there is no difference in realm and identity, the time of entering the Tao and breaking through can be used as an argument, but since their current identities are different, this point of view is just a cloud.
Faced with his smile, Gao Conghan gritted his teeth fiercely, making the sockets rattle.
"Let's not talk about this." Xiao Chunmian took the initiative to give a step, "What are you running here for? If you run around like this every day, aren't you afraid that your magic power will suddenly appear again?"
Hearing this, Gao Conghan suddenly became proud again, "The reason why I came is naturally because someone asked me to come here."
"Who?" Xiao Chunmian raised an eyebrow, "Xiao Qiu?"
"Who else?" Gao Conghan continued proudly, "As soon as he came back, the summoning amulet was in my hand, inviting me..."
"It's us." Gao Conghan was interrupted by a voice suddenly coming from behind.
Xu Hong rushed over a bit slower, "Junior Brother Yu invited us over, saying that he wanted to talk about the magic arts again."
"Brother." Xiao Chunmian immediately turned around and saluted Xu Hong.
Gao Conghan, who was ignored, suddenly looked gloomy.
"I haven't seen you for two years." Xu Hong was very happy to see Xiao Chunmian, but he still put on a serious face and trained him, "Don't always be so worrying."
Xiao Chunmian apologized in a low voice.
Xu Hong and Xiao Chunmian went up the mountain side by side, congratulated him on establishing the foundation, and said, "During the two years you were away, Junior Brother Yu has been very low-key. Since you are back, talk to him well, don't let him be like that again." For a while."
"Really, Xiaoqiu..." Xiao Chunmian sighed, "Thank you, brother, for letting me know."
Gao Conghan, who was left behind, suddenly looked even more melancholy.
After another walk, Xu Hong went a little further, Gao Conghan chased after Xiao Chunmian, and said with a ferocious smile, "You should already know about the Dabi in the sect, right?"
"What a coincidence," Xiao Chunmian looked at him, "I just found out."
Gao Conghan laughed twice, "This time, I will let you know how good I am in this competition!"
Before Xiao Chunmian responded, another sound came down from the top of the mountain.
"... This time, I will let you know how powerful I am in this competition!"
Gao Conghan: "..."
Who is there to grab the lines
Not long after that sentence fell, the three of them turned a corner and saw Yu Qiu's cave.
An uninvited guest is standing proudly in front of the cave.
This guy was wearing a magic weapon that couldn't stop flashing, and he was still holding a top-quality flying sword with radiant brilliance in his hand. The tip of the sword pointed at Yu Qiu who was leaning against the entrance of the cave, "I want everyone in the sect to know that you bastard!" You are not worthy to compare with me at all, you are only worthy to be my defeated opponent!"
This guy uttered a row of harsh words domineeringly, turned around in satisfaction, and looked at the three people who had just come down the mountain. His face suddenly changed again and again, and his eyes turned red again and again.
"You!" He suddenly raised his sword again and pointed at Gao Conghan, "I will definitely let you know how powerful I am in this competition!"
After saying that, the blade of the sword did not hang down, and pointed directly at Xiao Chunmian who was next to him, "You too! This time, I will let you know how powerful I am!"
After finishing the three harsh words, he was satisfied, and walked away with his nostrils upturned. Before leaving, he still remembered to salute Xu Hong.
The three silently watched his back.
"... Who is this idiot?" Gao Conghan asked.
Xu Hong coughed, "Don't say that, he is Junior Brother Long."
Surname Long? Gao Conghan seemed to have a subtle impression. But before he could fully remember this person, Yu Qiu had already seen them and beckoned them in.
Gao Conghan immediately forgot about the person surnamed Long, and walked over in high spirits.
Xiao Chunmian walked at the same time as him, these few steps happened to walk side by side with him.
Gao Conghan suddenly became competitive, and he wanted to be faster than Xiao Chunmian, and in the end he was one step faster than Xiao Chunmian! — but it doesn't make much sense.
Xiao Chunmian and Yu Qiu looked at each other, and smiled tacitly at the same time.
Although it was just such a simple smile, for some reason, it made people feel that the relationship between the two was quite different from before, as if it was so solid that even a needle could not be inserted.
Yu Qiu led the three of them inside.
When Yu Qiu turned around, Gao Conghan took a look at Xiao Chunmian. Xiao Chunmian also looked at Gao Conghan, and raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a rather meaningful and confident smile, as if the words "You have no chance" were clearly written in the smile.
Gao Conghan took a step back immediately, feeling his blood surge up all over his body.
"This time I was in a hurry to find you because I made a terrible new discovery about magic arts." After Yu Qiu led them in, he turned around and used the bone-penetrating method, "It's just... huh..."
His face changed suddenly, and he looked straight at Gao Conghan, "Why did your magic skills become serious again?"
"No." Gao Conghan took a deep breath quickly, covered himself with his sleeve and secretly took a picture of a peace and tranquility talisman, calming his mind, and immediately felt that the whole person was much better.
Yu Qiu watched Gao Conghan's demonic bone that was about to swallow his entire chest just now, and was now pressed back to his limbs, and he breathed a sigh of relief, "Be careful, don't let it attack again. .”
Gao Conghan nodded, and before he had time to speak, Xu Hong also used his bone-penetrating technique to scrutinize him.
"It's more serious than before." Xu Hong said.
"Really?" Gao Conghan was surprised.
"When you broke through to Foundation Establishment, you were in good condition. It only reached half of your limbs, but now it's all over your limbs." Xu Hong stretched out his index finger and thumb to make a short distance, and then opened the distance again. , "It's because you're too tired."
"Why am I tired?" Gao Conghan objected.
"Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment two years ago, and now we have just established the second floor." Xu Hong looked at him, "I have already completed the third floor, and Junior Brother Yu has also reached the third floor."
Gao Conghan was depressed.
Yu Qiu smiled, "It seems that Brother Xu also thinks it has something to do with cultivation."
Xu Hong nodded, "I think the Demonic Cultivator's Bone will cultivate on its own. When his cultivation base is not as fast as the Demonic Cultivator's Bone's cultivation speed and cannot suppress the Demonic Cultivator's Bone, the demonization will become serious. Conversely, if he can always suppress his cultivation level, he can largely avoid being enchanted. Of course, this is just my inference."
"It's the same as my inference." Yu Qiu said and looked at Xiao Chunmian again. Since breaking through to Foundation Establishment, Xiao Chunmian's situation has been very good, and the bone of the magic cultivator is always only as small as the tip of a fingernail. It seems that the cultivation level of Xiao Chunmian's Demon Cultivation Bone is only around the peak of Qi Refining, and he is easily suppressed.
With Xiao Chunmian's genius comprehension, it can be predicted that until he reached the peak of Foundation Establishment, he would no longer need to worry about being enchanted. The problem is that this method of suppression forces monks to keep sprinting on the road of comprehension, but no matter how talented a monk is, how long he will be stuck in front of a certain realm peak is unpredictable. Xu Hong, for example, is considered a talented person, but he was stuck at the peak of Qi refining for ten years, and he was stuck at the peak of Jindan in his previous life for hundreds of years.
"We still have to find a way to solve it completely." Yu Qiu muttered in a low voice.
"What?" The others didn't hear clearly.
"Let's talk about my new discovery." Yu Qiu raised his head, glanced at Xiao Chunmian, then at Xu Hong and Gao Conghan, "Magic skills... are contagious."
"Contagion?" Xu Hong was taken aback.
Gao Conghan was even more stunned, "What do you mean contagious?"
"Even if someone who has never practiced your method, as long as they have some form of contact with you, they will be in danger of being demonized." Yu Qiu glared at him, "For example, after being demonized by you blood sprayed on his face."
Gao Conghan was at a loss, not knowing why he received this glare.
"It seems that we have to be more careful." Xu Hong over there finally came back to his senses, gritted his teeth, and asked, "How did Junior Brother Yu find out? Are you sure?"
"I'm sure." Yu Qiu bypassed the question of how to find out, concealed the fact that Xiao Chunmian was also demonized, and said instead, "But I don't think it's just a matter of carelessness. Since magic skills can be contagious, the whole incident Nature can change."
"A demonized person may not be regarded as a demonic cultivator." Yu Qiu pointed at Gao Conghan, "It's a victim of a demonic cultivator."
Gao Conghan was taken aback again, and then the muscles on his face twitched.
"What does Junior Brother Yu mean?" Xu Hong stretched out his hand to stop Gao Conghan, looking at Yu Qiu.
"This is not something that we can solve alone." Yu Qiudao, "I decided to hand him over to the Zongmen, and use the power of the Zongmen to continue investigating this matter. If we say that he is a victim of Demon Cultivator , maybe it can prevent him from being treated as a demon cultivator."
"But it's just 'maybe'." Xu Hong gritted his teeth and paused every word, "Isn't it?"
