Into a Mysterious Realm [Rebirth]

The main street of Qixing Town runs from east to west. Cheng Musheng and Xian Ouli walked in from the west gate and walked along the street.

This is the first time for them to visit the market in Asking Galaxy, and it is naturally full of freshness, and they will go in almost every store to have a look.Most of these shops are brick and tile bungalow structures, only some are two or three-story attics or pagoda-shaped, with more high-end decoration and higher-end products.There are almost all long banners inserted outside the shops, with words such as "dan", "vessel", "fu", "tea" and "wine" written on them.

The two of them have no shortage of elixir, and Cheng Musheng has already prepared a lot of elixirs, but he heard from Master Wendell that in recent years, the other party has been researching and asking whether the spiritual herbs of the galaxy can replace magic herbs for elixirs preparation After all, many of the effects of spirit grass and magic herbs are the same, and they have similar medicinal properties. Maybe it is possible to prepare medicine with spirit grass.

Under the influence of Master Wendell, Cheng Musheng also became interested in this subject, so he planned to buy spiritual herbs, and planned to experiment a little or two when he had time. Maybe he could use this as a topic in the future, and he might be able to accept Master Wendell's guidance again.

Talismans and magic tools are the goals of the two of them here, but these two cannot be used frequently in front of people, so it is necessary to buy the type with great power, and try to use it or not, and when it is used, it can defeat the enemy with one blow.

However, after visiting several shops and planning to make a purchase, the two discovered that they did not have the currency in circulation in the galaxy—the Lingshi!Although there are a lot of mid-to-high-level spirit stones in the Heavenly Stem Treasure Ring, they are all Tobias's collection, and they were only lent to the two people to practice in the past.

Cheng Musheng and Xian Ouli looked at each other, their faces turned red.They were used to using points lavishly when they were in the Miracle Galaxy, and for a moment they forgot that the currencies here are different!

"What should I do?" Cheng Musheng was ashamed to death, he who was always very sensitive to money actually made such a big mistake!

Xian Ouli also has no good solution, they have a lot of good things, but they are not common here, not to mention why do cultivators buy scrolls or potions?It's useless at all.

Just when the two were in a dilemma, a few beautifully dressed girls passed by, talking about something excitedly.

"Have you heard? Today Lei Zhengpeng, Lei Yan and others have all come to the sword-testing stage, and they want to compete with the young masters of the Lian family in swordsmanship. Let's hurry up and have a look."

"I know! Seeing that the sun is about to begin, we are passing right now, and there will be no place later."

"Hee hee~ I'm going to place a bet on Young Master Lei Yan to win. Recently I saved up three spirit stones!"

"You like Young Master Lei Yan? I've never heard you mention it, it's quite a secret~"

A group of girls laughed and talked about the topic among girls, and gradually moved away.

Cheng Musheng's eyes immediately shone brightly, grabbed Xian Ouli's arm and said excitedly, "Did you hear that? There's a ring! There's a gambling table! Li...Brother, it's time for you to show off your skills!"

Cheng Musheng, who was so excited and almost called out his real name, abruptly called out his eldest brother, which made Xian Ouli's heart skip a beat.

He smiled boldly: "Brother Taihe has already said it, I will not refuse, I will go to meet other heroes now!"

Cheng Musheng's alias is Shi Taihe, and Xian Ouli's alias is Shixiong. Although they have practiced many times in advance, they always make mistakes unconsciously. It is really a subconscious relationship.

Cheng Musheng chuckled, rubbed his nose, walked side by side with Xian Ouli, and followed the girls in front to the so-called sword testing platform.

Along the way, the two met many men and women with long swords hanging from their waists, all heading in the same direction, all to watch the swordsmanship competition.These men, women and children are basically in the Qi training period, and there are not many in the foundation building period.

Listening to their conversations, this kind of competition almost happens every day, this is indeed the world of sword repairers.

Cheng Musheng, on the other hand, was excited that he would soon be able to return to his old business and participate in the gambling game. Thinking that he had earned a lot of points through this method at Parris Island, he naturally felt very cordial.

On the other hand, Xian Ouli was even more excited when he thought that he could finally use the "One Sword That Holds the Sky" sword code aboveboard. "One Sword Supports the Sky" is a heavenly sword art with infinite power, but in the past Xian Ouli could only practice secretly by himself, never used it to kill an enemy once, it must be a pity.

However, this regret will be made up for today, how can he not be excited?

The two became very excited, and even their footsteps became much lighter, and they even wished to release the lion beast and fly to the destination immediately.Fortunately, they still had a sliver of reason, so they didn't do this, but they unconsciously used their own light-weight skills, and the speed was not slow.

The sword testing arena is located in the north of the central part of Qixing Town. It is a large area with dozens of rings.On weekdays, this place is surrounded by hundreds of people every day, and today it is even more crowded, especially lively.

However, except for one of the dozens of arenas, all of them were vacant, and no one competed on them. All the onlookers around were also eagerly watching outside the arena where two people were fighting.

The two people who fought were young men, one was calm and serious, the other was lively and nimble, their swordsmanship styles were very different, but at this time they fought indistinguishably, and their swords shone brightly.

From the shouts of the onlookers, Cheng Musheng knew that the former was Lei Zhengpeng, who was known as the "Master Absolute Sword" of the Lei family. He hasn't made any name yet, and this is also the first time he has come to Qixing Mountain. It is said that he is here to learn from a master, but it seems that his swordsmanship is not weak.

As the leader of all families of the Jin family, the Lian family has always been very interested in swordsmanship. In addition, Jinxing Lingli has an innate advantage in manipulating swords and other weapons, and naturally cultivated many swordsmen.But compared with a pure sword cultivator family like the Lei family, it is definitely not comparable, but the Lian family also has a lot of sword formulas and sword books, so they often learn from each other with the Lei family's children.

Cheng Musheng and Xian Ouli watched with gusto. Lei Zhengpeng and Lian Siqi were both at the early stage of foundation establishment, and their swordsmanship skills were not weak. They fell into a stalemate for a while.

"Brother, who do you think will win?" Although Cheng Musheng's cultivation level was higher than the two on stage, his swordsmanship was much weaker than Xian Ouli's.

Of course, it is impossible for him and Xian Ouli to reveal the cultivation level of the golden core stage, otherwise everyone will definitely keep him at a distance and feel uncomfortable at all.Their revealed cultivation is the eighth level of Qi training, which is considered relatively strong among the crowd of onlookers.

"The swordsmanship of the two is comparable, but it seems that Lei Zhengpeng's cultivation is deeper, so he should win in the end." Xian Ouli said euphemistically.

There were many cultivators standing beside the two of them. Immediately after hearing Xian Ouli's words, there were a few laughs, and they sneered at his words.A tall and strong man glanced at him and said: "It is obvious that you have only cultivated the eighth level of qi, so you say that you can see through the cultivation base of the foundation period, and he also said that the swordsmanship of the two on the stage is comparable. Superior!"

"I don't think so. These two have fought for more than 200 moves. Even Siqi can not lose the wind. It can be seen that his swordsmanship is also very strong. What this fellow Taoist said is quite reasonable." From the other direction, a tall and thin old man twirled Said with a snow-white beard.

"On the surface, it seems to be the case, but Master Juejian's swordsmanship is masculine and domineering, while Master Lian Siqi's swordsmanship is feminine and lingering. It is said that he has turned a hundred refined steel into soft fingers. I think it is very likely that Master Lian Siqi won. Yes." Another woman's sweet voice came out from the crowd, expressing her opinion.

Several people expressed their opinions repeatedly, which immediately aroused more people's discussion. They all expressed their opinions one after another, and no one was convinced.

Cheng Musheng shook his head, not as knowledgeable as these sword idiots, but quietly walked through the crowd, came to a young man standing on a big rock beside the ring, and asked him with his arms folded: "You are here to set up a gambling game?"

On the boulder half a person's height, the young man was wearing a Lei family's iconic indigo sword robe, and was holding a thick book in his hand, on which were densely recorded the names of people and the number of spirit stones.

The young man looked down at Cheng Musheng, saw that he was on the same level as himself, and came to bet again, and smiled kindly: "That's true, do you want to participate, Fellow Daoist?"

Cheng Musheng asked: "I don't know how to bet?"

"As long as you leave a trace of your own spiritual thoughts on this gathering paper as a mark, tell me which one to buy to win, and hand over the bet to me. This game is only for everyone's fun, so there is no odds, the winner All spirit stones will be shared equally." The young man replied in detail.

After listening to his explanation, Cheng Musheng hesitated: "That's it."

He wants to make a lot of money for shopping, how much can he earn without odds?It is estimated that even a magic weapon can not be afforded.

Seeing what he was thinking, the young man smiled slightly and said, "You want to participate in a gambling game with odds? Then I can show you a way. You can go around the teahouse next door and find a elixir shop next door. , where you can participate in high-odds bets."

"Really?!" Cheng Musheng said happily.

"I won't lie to fellow Taoists." The young man said calmly.

Cheng Musheng thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, fellow daoist, for letting me know. Be careful, fellow daoist, please accept it." He took out a small piece of spirit stone, which didn't contain much spiritual energy, and it was enough for a small gift up.

The young man was also very satisfied with the income he could earn by talking about it, and accepted the Lingshi without any excuses.

Cheng Musheng came to the elixir shop pointed out by the young man, chatted with the shopkeeper a few words, and bet that Lei Zhengpeng would win this round with the one intact spirit stone he had left.

Not long after he placed his bet, he was about to go back to the ring to continue watching, when a young man dressed in workmanship ran in quickly, shouting loudly while running: "Shopkeeper, the first match is won by Master Absolute Sword!"

As soon as the boy's voice fell, hundreds of people swarmed up behind him, all smiling, congratulating each other, and ran to the shopkeeper to settle the bet.It turned out that these were the people who won the bet. Since Lei Zhengpeng was very famous in Qixing Town, there were not a few people who bet on him to win.

The shopkeeper was about to distribute the won spirit stones to them, and asked the young man, "Who will fight against whom next?"

"Mr. Lei Yan and a fairy named Lian Qiufeng, both of them are at the tenth level of Qi training." Although the young man is just a mortal, he said these things clearly and logically.

The shopkeeper immediately raised his voice and said: "The next game between Mr. Lei Yan and Fellow Daoist Lian Qiufeng begins!"

Under his yelling, almost all the hundreds of people who were already in the shop continued to place bets, only a few said they wanted to go back to the arena first, and a large number of people walked in from outside the house, apparently also came to bet for the first time. Second field.

Cheng Musheng, who had just made a small fortune, was not in a hurry to place a bet. He was not familiar with the two people in the test, so it was definitely impossible to place a blind bet.He took out a sound transmission talisman, cast a spell to trigger it, then moved his lips and said a few words into the talisman, and then sent the sound transmission talisman to Xian Ouli.

The talisman flashed slightly in front of Cheng Musheng, and immediately disappeared without a trace, making it difficult for people to trace and steal it.

After waiting for two or three minutes, a light lit up in front of Cheng Musheng. He raised his hand and put the returned sound transmission talisman into his hand.After hearing Xian Ouli's conclusion, he turned around and put all the spirit stones he had won before into the shopkeeper's hand, and said to him, "All bet on Lian Qiufeng."

"Okay!" The shopkeeper glanced at the number of spirit stones, quickly recorded a few strokes, and it was completed.

For the next half an hour, Cheng Musheng never left the elixir shop. From time to time, he would receive a sound transmission amulet from Xian Ouli, and then he would continue to place bets.

Because he won the bet every time, the shopkeeper felt surprised and looked at him many times with surprise eyes.Among the other bettors, quite a few saw him betting high luck, so they naturally bought along with him. However, his appearance was too strange, so most people didn't believe him very much, only thinking that he was lucky.

Cheng Musheng didn't care what others thought of him, as long as he could win money anyway.At this time, he received another sound transmission talisman. After receiving the above information, he turned around and threw thousands of spirit stones to the shopkeeper, and said with a smile: "All bets on Shixiong!"

Just finished speaking, he already rushed out of the elixir shop impatiently, and returned to the arena to watch Li Ge's competition.

"This... who is your senior brother? At least give me a real name!" The shopkeeper shouted behind him in confusion.

……

Cheng Musheng quickly returned to the side of the ring, and Xian Ouli was already on the ring, he asked the onlookers next to him, and found out that it was the time for Lei's family to guard the ring, and they usually hold such activities from time to time to guide the rest of the group. Sword repair.As long as you think you have a certain strength and are not afraid of losing in front of everyone, you can go up and fight.

"Then what if the Lei family loses? Will the champion change?" Cheng Musheng asked curiously.

As soon as the words came out, everyone around looked at him with idiot eyes, as if he had said something extremely stupid.

Cheng Musheng shrugged, there was nothing he could do if others didn't believe him, anyway, he felt that the younger generation of the Lei family had no chance of winning in front of Brother Li.Having said that, if Brother Li wins the group arena, will the Lei family recognize him as the ring leader?

On the ring, Xian Ouli cupped his hands at the opposite Lei Zhengpeng and said: "My next master, please enlighten me, senior."

He is now at the eighth level of Qi training, and Lei Zhengpeng is a monk in the foundation establishment period. In the cultivation world where the strong are respected, he naturally has to be respected as a senior.

Lei Zhengpeng didn't show off his predecessors, he bowed his hand to return the salute without a smile on his face, immediately stopped talking nonsense, drew out his saber and said, "Let's begin!"

Xian Ouli didn't think it was a pestle, many sword idiots were like Lei Zhengpeng, it was completely understandable.He also drew his sword out of its sheath, and used his natal magic weapon, the Eight Desolation Sword, but he didn't dare to show the appearance of his natal magic weapon, otherwise it would be seriously inconsistent with the cultivation level he revealed, which would arouse suspicion for no reason.

What Lei Zhengpeng practiced was his family's most famous and most practiced "Ling Xiao Sword Art", which is the same as the Shen family's "Burning Heaven Art", which is a heaven-level skill, and it is definitely a rare super sword art.With Lei Zhengpeng's cultivation base, the first chapter "Qing Tian Jue" has not yet achieved a great deal of cultivation, let alone comprehend the sword intent.

For Xian Ouli, he had the experience of often sparring with Lei Chen and other sword cultivators on Paris Island. Lei Zhengpeng and Lei Chen and others had similar cultivation levels back then, so it was more than enough to deal with him.

On the contrary, the first chapter of "One Sword Supporting the Sky" has a similar name to "Qing Tian Jue", it is called "Dancing Heaven Slash", adding the Shen family's "Burning Tian Jue", it is quite funny.It seems that when cultivators in ancient times created exercises, they absolutely wanted to pierce the sky, which also showed the spirit of resistance to go against the sky!

After holding the Eight Desolation Sword, Xian Ouli's whole aura suddenly changed, becoming extremely fierce and chilling, which moved Lei Zhengpeng and the spectators on the opposite side.

He stomped hard on the ground with his right foot, instantly cast the Cloud Piercing Step, and quickly attacked Lei Zhengpeng!

The reason why the cloud-piercing step is named 'Crossing the Cloud' is because this kind of step is as light as nothing, and after using it, it seems to be flying through the clouds, light and nimble to the extreme.

Therefore, after Xian Ouli performed the Cloud Piercing Step, he disappeared from where he was standing in the blink of an eye, and leaped forward with an afterimage, without a sound!

Lei Zhengpeng's pupils shrunk slightly. As a direct descendant of the Lei family, his knowledge is not bad. The other party will definitely not be an ordinary person just by relying on this kind of lightness.

He touched the ground with his toes, soared straight into the air, and flew to a height of four or five meters above the ground. He wanted to use the height to decipher the opponent's speed, and brought Xian Ouli into the field he was familiar with. More places to move around.

At the same time, Lei Zhengpeng danced his sword in an airtight manner, which was a means of both offense and defense.His attack method is the same as his personality, very stable, although he lacks agility, he is superior in that he will not make big mistakes, and he also has the ability to attack persistently.

But Lei Zhengpeng's expression was very solemn, his divine sense couldn't keep up with the opponent, and it was difficult to lock him.It is not a good thing to find the opponent's location.

Immediately, he simply withdrew his divine sense from the ring, instead of carefully distinguishing the opponent somewhere on the stage, instead firmly fixed his divine sense within three meters around him, as long as the opponent stepped into this range, he would be able to detect it.

Even so, it was too passive, but Lei Zhengpeng didn't have a good way, so he had to do so.

But he didn't know that Xian Ouli, who used the cloud piercing step to walk around the ring, praised him in his heart.Lei Zhengpeng's series of responses was the best choice, and the reaction speed was really fast enough, which was not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Xian Ouli saw that the method of confusing the opponent didn't work, so he stopped wandering around, but suddenly appeared from behind Lei Zhengpeng, and slashed at him with his sword!

The Eight Desolation Sword he was waving brought up a series of phantoms, which were as fast as thunder, and they were ferocious and powerful, making a sharp sword cry!

Although Lei Zhengpeng, who had been on guard against him for a long time, was always on guard, he didn't expect his offensive to be so fierce. His face changed drastically, he turned his wrist, and thrust his long sword across the air behind him, taking the blow hard!At the same time, his legs flicked again and again, and instead of retreating, he moved closer, wanting to confront Xian Ouli head-on!Such a style really lives up to the name of Master Absolute Sword!

Lei Zhengpeng, who was in the early stage of foundation establishment, could naturally be so tough in the face of an eighth-level qi training. The aura he could mobilize was completely incomparable to that of the current Xian Ouli.

When the swords of the two sides collided, Lei Zhengpeng urged the aura in his dantian to rush into the sword in his hand, trying to block the sword with the help of aura.

Clang!

The ear-piercing sound of metal collisions came out, and Lei Zhengpeng, who was completely in a defensive posture, blocked Xian Ouli's sword!

However, before he could heave a sigh of relief, he suddenly found that the long sword on the opposite side was like a raging tide, wave after wave was slapping towards his long sword, and each time it fiercely attacked the same place on the long sword, violently What a mess!

Lei Zhengpeng opened his eyes wide and looked over, and only then could he see clearly in the flying sword light. It turned out that those phantoms he thought were all real sword moves, and the opponent made more than a dozen slashes in an instant!

This is the unique feature of "Wu Tian Zhan", when one reaches the highest stage of practice, one sword can perform 81 cuts!

To perform this kind of slash, not only does the sword cultivator have to have a strong enough explosive power, but also has extremely high requirements for the speed of swinging the sword.However, compared to the bells and whistles of other sword formulas, this is just an ordinary slash, which is in line with the highest meaning of "The Great Way to Simplicity" in "One Sword That Holds the Sky".

It's just that there are thousands of changes in it, and you can use it as you like according to different situations.

Now Xian Ouli only used sixteen cuts, but Lei Zhengpeng was caught off guard, his defense was completely disrupted, and he retreated steadily without preparation!

After sixteen slashes, the long sword that was always aimed at made a crunching sound at a certain point, and under the eyes of many spectators, it broke into two halves.

Lei Zhengpeng stared blankly at the other half of the long sword that fell to the ground, his face flickering for a while, and then he took a deep breath and said convincingly: "Friend Daoist is superb in swordsmanship, I admit defeat!"

Xian Ouli clasped his hands and said with a smile: "Senior, please don't say that, it's my surprise that wins."

Lei Zhengpeng smiled casually: "If it were me, I would not be able to cut sixteen swords in an instant, and the swords would hit the same place. It seems that I still need to practice my sword moves."

"Senior accepted it." Xian Ouli had a good impression of him and said politely.

At this moment, a middle-aged man from the Lei family shouted loudly from the sidelines: "Shixiong won this round! The current challenger is Daoist Shixiong, let Daoist adjust his breath for a while, and then the next person Fight!"

At this time, everyone in the audience exclaimed in surprise. They didn't expect that Young Master Absolute Sword would lose so easily, and he lost to a little-known junior in the Qi training period!

The eyes of everyone looking at Xian Ouli changed drastically, full of curiosity, suspicion and interest, many people were eager to go up and clean him up, so that they could become the ringleader.

The group of people who were standing around Cheng Musheng were all stunned, they couldn't help but look at him, they didn't expect that he said the ring leader had changed, and it actually changed!

Cheng Musheng chuckled, and ran to the elixir shop with a complacency of 'everyone is drunk but I am sober' - he still wants to keep betting!
