Ten minutes after dawn.
Chen Xi left the Liuyun Sword Sect gracefully. This time, he did not avoid the mountain-protecting sword formation. Instead, he took out a simple token and walked into the formation, just like strolling in a courtyard, unimpeded.
This token is about the size of a palm, with only a small three-inch sword engraved on it. It is so vivid that at a glance, it seems as if it is about to fly out of the body.
This is the token given to Chen Xi by Beiheng. With this token, he can enter and exit Liuyun Sword Sect at any time, which will also make it easier for Chen Xi to visit his younger brother Chen Hao.
"Fortunately, Beiheng will not reveal his relationship with me before the Qianlong Ranking Competition is over, but it will allow me to participate in the competition with peace of mind and stay by my brother's side to prevent any unexpected events."
Chen Xi carefully recalled the details of his conversation with Bei Heng last night in his mind, and found that there were no mistakes, so he felt relieved.
"Chen Xi, don't put all your hopes on that old ghost." Ling Bai stood on Chen Xi's shoulder and couldn't help but remind him.
"Definitely not." Chen Xi nodded, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "By the way, can you see the strength of that beautiful young man who disguised himself as a man?"
"It's terrifying, unimaginably powerful!" Lingbai said slowly with a solemn look in his eyes.
Chen Xi couldn't help but be stunned. Even though Xiao Lingbai was only three inches tall, he was very proud and arrogant at heart. He was not afraid of anything. That mysterious and beautiful young man could make him feel afraid. Could it be that his cultivation had already reached the realm of an immortal
"Chen Xi, how can you be his junior brother?" Lingbai asked with a puzzled look on his face.
Chen Xi shrugged: "I am also confused."
"Where are we going now?" Lingbai suddenly said excitedly: "How about we catch monsters and eat barbecue?"
"No, the Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition is about to start. I have to take advantage of this time to practice hard." Chen Xi flatly refused. Under Lingbai's resentful eyes, he quickened his pace and rushed to Longyuan City.
Su family, main hall.
Su Zhentian, the head of the Su family, has been sitting here since last night until it was dawn. His face gradually became gloomy and he looked suspicious.
"Zhentian, hasn't Chan'er been summoned?" Su Lingfeng, the elder who looked like a child in red robes, asked sharply.
"No, I confirmed last night that he was in possession of the Jade Slip. As for why I haven't captured that Chen Hao yet..." Su Zhentian frowned and asked in confusion, "Did something unexpected happen?"
"It's absolutely impossible. Chen Hao, Chen Xi's younger brother, has already been expelled to Long Ming Peak of Liuyun Sword Sect. He is no doubt a lowly coolie. It would be easy for Chan'er to capture him. How could there be an accident?" Su Lingfeng Shaking his head.
At this moment, Su Jiao hurried in, her usually reserved and calm face was already frosty. She didn't bother to greet her father and the great elder, and said directly: "Just now, a disciple of Liuyun Sword Sect came to help. My brother brought along a message slip."
Su Zhentian and Su Lingfeng looked at each other, and their hearts suddenly sank.
Su Chan was a close disciple of the ancestor Lingdu. It was reasonable for him to have someone bring something back for him. However, what happened last night was a top-secret matter. Instead of doing it himself, he asked someone to take care of it. Someone came back with a message slip. Could it be that something had changed
"What does the jade slip say?" Su Zhentian took a deep breath, forced himself to suppress the irritability in his heart, and said slowly.
"My brother said..." Su Jiao's face changed, and she said bitterly after a long time: "He said that Chen Hao is a direct disciple of Master Wenxuan. Because of this matter, he has been banned by Master Wenxuan."
Master Wen Xuan
Su Zhentian took a breath. As the head of the Su family, one of the six major families in Longyuan City, he knew more about things in the Liuyun Sword Sect than ordinary people. There were even some things that the Liuyun Sword Sect didn't know. , he also knows.
As far as he knew, this Wen Xuan was a real person from the underworld, and his strength was so terrifying that even the ancestor of Lingdu had to respectfully call him uncle when he saw him. Because he has lived in seclusion in the back mountain all year round, his reputation is not as great as that of the Lingdu ancestor, but if anyone dares to underestimate him, it would be a big mistake.
"Chan'er said... So Chen Hao is a disciple of Master Wenxuan?" Su Lingfeng murmured in disbelief.
Although he is the eldest elder of the Su family, his cultivation is still lingering at the perfect state of Liangyi Golden elixir. He is only one step away from advancing to the nirvana state. However, even if he advances to the nirvana state, he is still one step behind Zhenren Wenxuan. In the great realm, one can imagine the shock in his heart when he heard that Chen Hao actually worshiped and practiced under such a big shot.
"That should be the case, otherwise Chan'er would have captured Chen Hao last night." At this moment, Su Zhentian calmed down completely and said slowly: "In this case, if we want to use Chen Hao to lure out his brother Chen Xi, I'm afraid it will be difficult It’s not feasible anymore.”
"Damn it! Not only is it not feasible, if we kill his brother, if Chen Hao gets angry and begs Master Wen Xuan to take action, our Su family will not be able to handle it." Su Lingfeng screamed.
"Huh, can't you bear it?" A sneer appeared on Su Zhentian's lips, and he said secretly: "Great Elder. Maybe you don't know, but the ancestor has advanced to the realm of underworld a few days ago, and is now a Master Minghua, and has realized the mystery of that thing, against Master Wenxuan, the outcome is 50-50. As long as the ancestor comes forward, Wenxuan can do nothing to us."
"Ancestor...has become a real person in the underworld? Has he also realized...the mystery of that thing?" Su Lingfeng seemed to have remembered something terrible and fell into deep thought.
"Jiao'er, what else did your brother say?" Su Zhentian turned his eyes to Su Jiao.
Su Jiao took a deep breath and said: "My brother said that Chen Hao will also participate in the Qianlong Ranking Competition, so I suggested that my father take action at that time, which is undoubtedly the best time to kill him. And as far as I know You know, Chen Xi has also participated in the Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition, so maybe we can take this opportunity to kill these two brothers together."
"Yes, you have thought of it with me." Su Zhentian nodded and said: "In the Qianlong Ranking Competition, all the children will be sent to the Pagoda Trial Tower. Outsiders cannot interfere at all. As long as my Su family participates in the Qianlong Ranking Competition, When our disciples gather together, they will definitely kill these two brothers."
"Indeed, the Pagoda Trial Tower is a world of its own. Unless you crush the teleportation jade talisman in your hand, you can't be teleported out at all." Su Lingfeng said grimly: "We just need to take advantage of the two brothers before they crush the jade talisman. After killing two people, no one can say anything. You know, in every Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition, there are many disciples who are injured or killed."
"However, if we can't kill the two of them before crushing the jade talisman, won't we have no chance to kill them in the future?" Su Jiao frowned.
"There is no need to worry. The Qianlong Ranking Competition is jointly organized by various major forces, and our Su family is also one of them. It is extremely easy to do something with the communication jade talismans of his two brothers."
A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Su Zhentian's face: "You dare to kill a Liangyi Jindan realm elder and six Huangting monks from my Su family. If you don't kill these two brothers, how can our Su family still be in the Long Dynasty?" Stop in Yuancheng?"
When Chen Xi returned to the quiet courtyard arranged by Duanmuze, he saw that Du Qingxi and the others were already waiting for him. When he asked, he found out that the three of them were also going to participate in this Qianlong Ranking Competition. Before the Qianlong Ranking Competition, Chen Xi For a while, I have to retreat at home to practice, so I don’t have time to take Chen Xi around Longyuan City.
This is in line with Chen Xi's wishes. After all, he also wants to take advantage of this period of time to practice hard and prepare for the Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition. As for visiting Longyuan City, that is a dispensable leisure thing. From now on There is plenty of time.
After chatting about some things and rules that need to be paid attention to in the Qianlong Ranking Competition, Du Qingxi and the others left soon after.
Chen Xi didn't waste any more time. He sat cross-legged on the bed and was about to practice, but he frowned and paused.
"Now my Qi refining cultivation has just advanced to the six-star realm of Zifu, and my body refining has also just advanced. I have reached the second level of Zifu. It is obviously impossible to advance to a higher level in just half a month. Okay. It seems that instead of wasting this time, it is better to practice your martial arts skills."
"And the only means I have to fight against the enemy, apart from the Yinfeng Liuguang Sword Formation composed of eight Xuanming flying swords and the Dayan Fengxing Sword, is the only Xingdou Big Hand Seal. The Xing Dou Big Hand Seal is my trump card. If it is not necessary, When the time comes, it’s better not to expose it…”
Chen Xi thought silently.
The Qianlong Ranking Competition is a grand event in the entire Southern Xinjiang cultivation world. Geniuses gather and there are countless masters. Lin Shaoqi and Tang Xu, who Chen Xi defeated in the Juxian Pavilion, are only the best among the foreign monks. Compared with the eight major sects, The geniuses in the sect, the three universities, and the six major families are obviously on a different level.
Just chatting with Du Qingxi and the other three, Chen Xi learned about many talented people participating in the Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition, such as Qiu Leng, who is known as the "Sword of Nothingness" from the Qingyang Sect, and Fei Lengcui, a true disciple of the Liuyun Sword Sect. , like Luo Xiu, the true disciple of Xinghong Valley... These young generation geniuses are almost all around the eighth level of the Zi Mansion. They have outstanding qualifications, extremely high understanding, and their own methods. They are extraordinary and refined. They are all the talents cultivated in the sect. A stunningly beautiful person.
They participated in the Qianlong Ranking Competition with the goal of making themselves famous and famous in southern Xinjiang, so as to gain more favor and support from the sect.
In fact, all the children who participated in the Qianlong Ranking Competition held this idea and regarded this competition as a springboard in life, eager to soar into the sky and become famous.
Chen Xi didn't care about these, but he had to pay attention to these young leaders participating in the competition. After all, he was no longer fighting for himself at this moment, but also shouldered the responsibility of taking care of his younger brother.
Chen Hao, his younger brother, participated in the Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition. Originally, Chen Xi didn't have to worry. After all, his younger brother was a disciple of Liuyun Sword Sect. Even if he was kicked off, he would not be harmed.
But things were different now. Because of the existence of the enemy of the Su family, Chen Xi vaguely felt that this time the Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition would never be as simple as a competition for his brother and himself.
"I'm afraid the Su family has now learned about my younger brother becoming a disciple of Zhenren Wenxuan. However, in every Qianlong Ranking competition, there will always be some casualties among our children. If the Su family takes this opportunity to kill my younger brother and me, If so, it would be dangerous..."
Chen Xi took a deep breath and shook his head to expel the distracting thoughts from his mind. Soldiers will come to block it, and water will come and earth will cover it up. Thinking so much about it will not help.
Crash... Fifty-six high-grade yellow-grade flying swords with powerful aura fell on the ground in front of him. Chen Xi recalled the secret of the second level of the Yanfengliu Light Sword Formation in his mind, and immediately picked up a flying sword and stabbed it. He cut his finger and began to draw runes on the surface of the flying sword with blood.
Yes, he will refine all fifty-six flying swords, and then combine them with his eight Xuanming flying swords to make a number of sixty-four, and practice the second level of the Yanfeng Liuguang Sword Formation!
After yesterday's transformation, his current soul power has reached the level of spiritual thoughts, which is no less than that of the Liangyi Golden Pill monks. He can barely control sixty-four flying swords.
However, the consumption of true energy may become extremely terrifying.
After all, among these sixty-four flying swords, eight are of the highest grade of the Huang rank, and the remaining fifty-six are also of the highest rank of the Yellow rank. If you want to use the second level of the Yanfeng Liuguang Sword Formation, its true essence How could the consumption be less
