Jiuxiao

On the huge square, flags fluttered.

Since the Tianyan Sect was built on the plain, looking down from the sky, one can see layers upon layers, and the temples are connected. At first glance, those pavilions, towers and pavilions are endless, and they seem to occupy more than half of the Xiling Mountains.

The seats are lined up row upon row, and they have already been arranged. Naturally, important figures from each faction will not be left behind. As the host of the Tianyan Sect, they must have known each one in advance before making this arrangement. Come on, if one is not good, it will be suspected of neglect, and it will inevitably chill the hearts of other sects.

In order to facilitate watching the fights in the arena, the chairs are all formed into a big circle, as if to make up for the cracks of friction that day, the top one is the ranking of Shangxuanzong, and the next ones are Tianyanzong, Qinggumen and so on.

Qingying and her party came not too early or too late, looking from a distance, many sects had already arrived, among them there were many handsome young men, handsome and beautiful women Xiu, everyone gathered together, it was inevitable to feel a sense of comparison, looking around, socializing, you come and go .

Next to each sect, there is a flag with the name of each sect written on it, red, white, black and green, with different colors. The first thing for everyone to come to the square is to find their own position. , is to identify the position of the other faction.

As a matter of course, such big sects as Shangxuanzong, Tianyanzong, and Qinggumen naturally attracted the attention frequently, among which Shangxuanzong was the most important.Leaving aside the title of No. [-] in the world, yesterday Yun Zong's quarrel with Tianyan Sect has blown all over Tianyan Sect like the wind.

Those who have experienced the arrogance of the Tianyan Sect will naturally cry out inwardly; there are also some wall-riding factions who think that the rise of the Tianyan Sect is unstoppable, but after this incident, they are a little undecided; Those who secretly colluded with Tianyanzong, seeing the disharmony between the two factions, felt a little apprehensive, for fear that they would accidentally be used as a raft and not know it.

All in all, people's hearts are different, but everyone is almost exactly the same, first look for the positions of those great sects, and when they see the banner of Shang Xuanzong, they stop their eyes and look carefully.

Looking at it, I found that there were not many people coming to Xuanzong, and there was only one Nascent Soul monk and two Jindan monks. , I'm afraid that people have more intentions to bring their younger generations to gain knowledge.

However, with such a lineup, it was able to retaliate against Tian Yanzong's downfall yesterday. This alone makes people dare not underestimate the number one sect in the world. Have that capital.

Thinking about it this way, more people took the initiative to come to Shang Xuanzong to say hello, and almost every sect did not fall behind.

After Zhou Yin was reborn, although he traveled around in several places, he didn't pay attention to the origins of each sect, and he hardly knew anyone he met.After Yun Zong introduced him a few times, he found that Zhou Yin really didn't know what to ask, so he didn't bother to waste any more time, and handed over this glorious task to a disciple named Cao Hang next to him.

In the face of idols, Cao Hang naturally did his best. Regardless of his low cultivation, his ability to recognize people is really strong. Of course, his ability to inquire is even stronger.

"Uncle Zhou, that old monk over there is Master Yuanjue, the abbot of Lingyin Temple. There are not many Buddhist practitioners on this continent, and Lingyin Temple accounts for one-third of the strength. I have heard people say that this Yuanjue What the monk is best at is a spell that can instantly hide the body, called Dharma facing the wall. Hehehe..."

In the middle of his speech, he suddenly laughed, and Zhou Yin glanced at him inexplicably.

Cao Hang coughed: "It is said that he had an epiphany when he was 40 years old. At that time, he had not become a monk, and he caused a lot of love debts in the world of mortals. Those lovers were all powerful, and they all came to him. I couldn't beat or scold, I was so annoying, I simply shaved my hair and left home, after three years of retreat, I realized that Bodhidharma faces the wall."

Zhou Yin looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough, he saw a group of Buddhist monks standing or sitting in a small group. In addition to Lingyin Temple, there were also Lingtai Temple, Feilong Temple, and Ben Huanzhai. There are monks, and the ones who live in this illusion are nuns.

"Look at the man about forty steps to your right. His name is Wu Hao, and he is an elder from Qinggumen. Don't look at his pious face. I heard that in private, he was walking by Moxiu's family." Hey, he used a girl to practice that, ahem, so look at his skin, tsk tsk, it’s tenderer than tofu!" Cao Hang said in a low voice, his face was flushed red, he was eloquent, and his face was filled with the brilliance of gossip.

"There is also that woman who just passed in front of us but didn't come to say hello, called Fairy Bibo." Cao Hang gritted his teeth.

Zhou Yin understood that the woman who dared to love was Yun Zong's ex-fiancee.

"She obviously had a marriage contract with Uncle Yun, but in the end she broke the contract and married another, and she climbed up to the son of the lord of the Tianyan Sect. No wonder she is so arrogant. According to me, she has no skills, but she just relies on her face..."

"Nephew, what did you say so happily?" A gloomy voice sounded, but it was Yun Zong who had just walked away.

Cao Hang shivered, and smiled apologetically, "No, it's nothing, we're talking about beautiful women!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he happened to see a beautiful figure, wearing a fluttering white dress, with a celestial appearance, not inferior to the Bibo Fairy just now, the girl's eyebrows were a little bright red cinnabar, which made her complexion bully Saixue, like Luoshen Xueji , Cao Hang was stunned for a moment, and forgot where he said.

In a flash, the girl came towards them. Cao Hang searched his mind, but he didn't remember that he knew this person. He couldn't help but looked around, but saw many people around him also staring at her intently.

The girl in white walked up to them and smiled at Zhou Yin: "Brother Zhou, do you still remember me?"

Zhou Yin nodded: "Zhou Zhang's junior sister."

"Exactly." Linglong admires Zhou Yin, loves the house and Wu, and feels very close to Zhou Yin. "Senior brother and the others are here this time too, but they are far away and have not found you. Instead, I was wandering around. I didn't expect that there would be a surprise!"

After she finished speaking, she pointed to the distance, and she saw the flag of the Jinting Gate flying far away on the opposite side of the square, but it was blocked by the crowd and the obstacles in the middle, so she couldn't see it.

Linglong exchanged a few words with Zhou Yin, and then noticed that Zhou Yin was sitting on the seat of Shang Xuanzong, and beside him was a Nascent Soul cultivator, who was secretly surprised with the man she had seen at the back mountain of the Jinting Gate, and then I felt that I was a bit abrupt when I ran over suddenly, and I couldn't help but feel at a loss.

On the contrary, Qingying saw her beautiful appearance and cute temperament, so she said a few words to her gently.

As time went by, the crowd gradually gathered. Standing or sitting in the open square, there was a crowd of people, and a stone platform in the middle was arched for the purpose of fighting.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Linglong realized that she had stayed here for too long, so she hurriedly apologized and went back. At this time, the disciples of Shang Xuanzong had already gotten to know her well, and because she behaved gracefully, she did not arouse the jealousy of female disciples. , everyone watched her leave reluctantly, and Cao Hang was a little bit lost.

Qingying, however, was not in the mood of disciples and grandchildren talking and laughing. She knew very well that the face lost by Tianyanzong yesterday must be recovered through today's fighting method. This is the territory of Tianyanzong. If the other party wants to do something , is also an easy task, I can't help but sigh secretly, and I have no choice but to play by ear.

After a while, I saw a white light in the sky, suddenly appearing in the sky, followed by three red lights, the white rainbow was red and red, it was really eye-catching, and the speed was so fast that many people didn't see it clearly.

Seeing that there were four more people on the stone platform in the field, the leader was Shangguan Han, the suzerain of Tianyan Sect, who was tall and straight, with a long body and a tall and straight body.

Behind them are three red-clothed women, with lowered eyebrows and lowered eyes, holding a box in each hand.

"Shangguan Letter from Tianyan Sect, welcome to our school!"

Shangguan Han smiled loudly, his voice was calm and upright, and it spread throughout the audience.

Qingying said in a low voice: "This Shangguan Han is a powerful person."

She was talking to herself, and she was also reminding other disciples.

The disciples of Shangxuanzong may not be able to understand the deep meaning in her words, but it does not prevent them from being surprised.

You must know that the higher the level of cultivation, the more difficult it is to advance to the rank. Nowadays, on the mainland, there are only dozens of monks in the early Yuan Dynasty, and even fewer monks in the middle of the Yuan Dynasty. For example, the head of Xuanzong taught Qinghe Zhenren, because they were entangled in mundane affairs, so they only stopped. At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, it was difficult to go further, but the lord of Tianyan Sect in front of him was even better, and he had reached the middle stage of Yuanying.

There was a buzzing sound at the scene. Obviously, many people were as shocked by Shangguan Han's cultivation as the disciples of Shangxuanzong.

"It's a great fortune for the Tianyan Sect to have the world's cultivation sects gather here to discuss major issues. Now that monsters are rampant, and seeing that chaos is about to break out, and the monster clan is resurgent, it is time for people of my generation to come forward! Tianyan Sect welcomes everyone Qingyan, presiding over the Zongmen General Assembly, intends to unite monks from all over the world, unite as one, and fight against the enemy together!"

He looked around the expressions of everyone in the audience, and said impassionedly: "I think you all know that today is not a sect meeting, but a battle of skills. I hope that fellow Taoists can show their skills and testify to each other, so as to have a glimpse of the way of heaven together! In this eventful autumn, we should cooperate sincerely, regardless of you and me, so whether you have sects or casual cultivators, Tianyan Zong treats everyone equally, so- —!”

He raised his hand, and the three girls behind him stepped forward.

Shangguan Han put his hand on the first box on the left, unsealed the seal on the box, and then unlocked the box.

A burst of abundant spiritual energy poured out from the box in an instant, and rushed straight to Xiaohan.

There was an uproar in the audience, the standing people opened their eyes wide, and the sitting people sat up straight involuntarily.

This is a jade buckle.

Jade buckles are ornaments worn by many people. Men use them to tie their belts, while women use them to tie silk ribbons on their skirts. Each has its own style.

But the jade buckle carved in the shape of a plum blossom in front of him attracted the attention of all the monks.

Every petal on it, even the stamens, is covered with a layer of crystal clear but almost blue frost. brilliant.

Someone shouted: "Is this Luomeikou?"

Shangguan Han smiled slightly, nodded and said, "That's right, this is Luomeikou."

Legend has it that when Yuzhang ascended to the upper realm, he left a lot of things for his disciples and grandchildren. This plum jade buckle was refined when he was in the early stage of becoming a god, and it is a rare defensive magic weapon in the world.With this jade buckle that contains the spiritual power of a cultivator who transforms gods, he is naturally safe from being attacked and plotted against. It is really the first choice for walking outside.

Everyone was already very interested in fighting skills, but when they saw this Luomeikou, their eyes became a little hotter.

Shangguan said in a letter: "I would like to teach fellow Taoists to know that although this Luomei button is a treasure, due to the age, its mana will inevitably be lost. Even if I try my best, it can only slow down the speed of its loss. According to this In other words, Luomeikou can only be used for another 20 years at most.”

Everyone was a little disappointed when they heard the words, but after thinking about it, it is a luxury to own a treasure like this for a year or so, let alone 20 years, if you can cultivate successfully in 20 years, it will be enough.

Seeing that the audience calmed down a little, Shangguan Han opened the second box.

In the box was a long sword that was more than four feet long. The body of the sword was faintly blue, like a pool of spring water. There was no embossed pattern on it, but there was a compelling evil spirit, which was faintly visible. , I soon felt my blood boil.

"This sword is called Seven Kills. Although it is not as precious as Luomeikou, it is also a rare magic weapon. The most important thing is," Shangguan Han paused, and said with a smile: "There is no expiration date."

Everyone laughed.

Shangguan Han stretched out his hand to the third box.

The moment the box was opened, there was only a sound of clang, resounding like a wonderful sound of fairy music, resounding through the audience, and everyone suddenly felt that their hearts seemed to be carried away by the wind with this sound, traveling in the heavens.

This time it was a piano.

The body of the piano is small and exquisite, unpretentious, only a foot long, with five strings on it.

Yueshan, which is where the head of the piano is, is engraved with a phoenix. As Shangguan Han's fingers plucked on the strings, the original heavy and colorless phoenix turned into a glass-like golden yellow along the lines, as if it was about to spread its wings. fly.

Shangguan said: "This Qin is the Angu Qin made by the sword fairy Xuanying for an old friend."

The old friend is here today, and I will reward the old man with a piano.

Most of the people present have heard the name of the sword fairy Xuanying, but they have never heard of the An Guqin. Presumably there is still an unknown secret, which has passed with the passage of time and cannot be traced.

But the An Guqin in Shangguan Han's hands is a real existence. It is a touching piece that can clear one's mind and clarify one's ambitions. It can also be played by the owner of the piano, making the listeners want to stop, like a demon or an illusion. It is the power of An Guqin.

Shangguan Han put An Guqin back into the box, turned around and laughed loudly: "Tianyan Sect has nothing to offer, only these three magic weapons are passable. The sword rewards the confidant, the good wine is given to the hero, and the fighting skills are discussed. You can't miss the lottery. From now on, for three days, all fellow Taoists can challenge freely. After three days, the top three in the number of victories will be judged by their cultivation. Pick one of the treasures you like."

"Furthermore, for the sake of fairness, I have already discussed with the sects yesterday. The masters and elders of each sect should not be allowed to play, and the opportunity should be reserved for the rising stars!"
