The devil has too many vests

It snows all the year round in the northern desert, and the ice and frost are hard to melt in a thousand years.

In view of the severe cold environment of the North Desert and the customs that have been handed down since ancient times, the foreign races in the North Desert take the royal city where the royal court is located as the core, and the capital city where the 72 clan is located as the guard, plus other small cities affiliated to the 72 clan, the cities are like a spider web. Spread out, like chess pieces scattered on a chessboard, scattered on the vast snowfield.

Especially in the Beiyuan area near Dongli and Dayong, almost every city has a powerful clan.Hundreds of thousands of troops can be dispatched at any time when necessary.

At the southernmost tip of Beimo, on the huge snowfield, ice and snow are flying, and the wind is blowing on the ground. A city that seems to be made of ice and snow rises from the ground, standing in the wind and snow.

Every inch of the wall is crystal clear.

If you look carefully, you will find the dark and ancient wall hidden under the thick ice and snow.

This is Fenghuan City, and the ruler of this place is the Chongshan clan, a great surname in Beimo.

In February, Fenghuancheng was still a world of ice and snow, but it ushered in a rare bustle after a long absence.

Lu Yiyu, the true biography of the Canghai Sword Sect, and Xiao Wuyi, the young lord of the Big Dipper Demon Palace, had already agreed to a duel here at the beginning of December last year. Later, the two postponed the date by coincidence, and chose the date to be on the third day of March.

In order to join in the fun, the Chong Shan family who is in charge of Feng Huan City suddenly announced that a competition will be held, and anyone under the age of 30 can participate in the Insight Realm.The final winner will receive a Yundao Stone as a reward.

The Chongshan clan declared that this competition was only for the selection of talents in Beimo, and they would vigorously cultivate them in the future.But if there are geniuses from other countries who come to participate in the competition and go to the end, they can also take away the rewards.

As soon as this remark came out, it quickly spread throughout the 33 states of the central region, and the young talents of the three major countries were all attracted to it.

Except for a very small number of people in this world who have no desires or desires, what most people pursue are fame, profit, power, and sex.Even practitioners are no exception.

Sui Shan's actions were upright, whether it was to obtain the rare and incomparable Yun Dao Stone; or to strive for strength and become famous in front of the world; became the center of attention.

In December last year, many people came to watch the duel. Due to the postponement of the duel, these people are still staying in Fenghuan City. After the news of the "Martial Arts Trial Conference" spread, more and more people arrived one after another.

Feng Huancheng suddenly became lively.

The entire city was covered in ice and snow, only the easternmost part was a lake with a radius of hundreds of miles. The clear and cold snow water was rippling with sparkling light. In the middle of the lake stood a pavilion with a height of a hundred feet.

It is clearly a world of ice and snow, but here it is as warm as spring.The lotus flowers on the lake are in full bloom.The pavilions and pavilions are even more dotted with green and pink, which are in various poses and colors.

This is the Heaven Changing Formation laid down by the Chongshan Clan using a branch of the Lingshi vein as energy.

As a result, the frozen lake melted in an instant, dry grass sprouted in an instant, and pavilions and pavilions were built in a day... With this lakeshore as the boundary, the entire Fenghuan City seems to be divided into two worlds.

In front of the exquisite pavilion in the middle of the lake, a figure suddenly flew upside down from the gate. He seemed to be hit by a huge force, his whole body was soaked in blood, and fell into the frozen lake with a "plop".

Only then did a voice sound from the pavilion, full of contempt: "You are qualified to be on the same level as me? It's a joke!"

There was a burst of laughter immediately in the building.

"Young Master Wang is right! This Wangyue Tower was specially built by the Chongshan Clan to receive talented people from all over the world. A mere guy who has only broken a few layers of shackles, how can he have the guts to live with us? He really doesn't know how to live or die! "

"In my opinion, most of them are wind media who want to sneak in to get information..."

There are ten floors in the Wangyue Building, and the people who spoke are on the second floor.After glancing at the miserable condition of the man in the lake through the window, they didn't bother to continue to pay attention, and continued to drink and eat to enjoy themselves.

Since the Moon Tower was built, people from all corners of the world tried to move in almost every day. If they failed to pass the test of the two Insight Realm guards downstairs, it was probably the result of being beaten and thrown out.Sometimes if you are unlucky, you may meet some ruthless practitioners who live here, and you may die directly.

This is the first threshold that the Chongshan clan used to select participants for the martial arts test.In other words, even if the people who can live in are not one-in-a-million geniuses, they are better than [-]% of their peers.

Being able to ascend this building is already a different kind of fame.How can these people not be full of ambition and high-spirited?

A group of people chatted and laughed, and exchanged names in a short period of time.

"I heard that the date of the Martial Trials Conference was chosen on the third day of the third month, and the day for the decisive battle between Lu Yiyu and Xiao Wuyi was the third day of the third month. I deliberately chose this day, and I don't know what the Chongshan Clan's plan is?"

"No matter what their plans are, this time, my lord is bound to get the Dao Yun Stone... It is a peerless treasure that is likely to help people understand the meaning of the Tao, and is very helpful for entering the Tao! It must not be missed!"

When mentioning Yun Dao Stone, many people present showed deep longing in their eyes.

Entering the Tao is the biggest threshold of practice.If you can't enter the Tao, you are only a secular warrior after all. Even an army of mortals can besiege and trap them to death.

But this hurdle has stumped countless people.

Yun Dao Stone is a treasure produced in the ancient ruins.It is said that in ancient times, the realm of heaven and man was not the limit, and this Yundao stone was artificially created by the strong at that time. It contains the breath of Taoism, which can help younger generations understand Taoism more easily.Its preciousness can be imagined.

Perhaps a true disciple of the Holy Land like Lu Yiyu doesn't care, but others can't be so calm.

"The Chongshan Clan really has the Dao Yun Stone? As long as they haven't taken it out for a day, I won't believe it. Even if it's true, why would they offer such a precious treasure? This may be a little weird... "

Someone just raised doubts, and another immediately refuted:

"What's so weird about it! How dare the dignified Beimo clan lie in front of the world? What if they dare to plot against us... Hehe, I'm just a small person, but there are still many people here. It can overwhelm the Chongshan clan..."

As he said that, the man quietly tugged at the people at the same table, and motioned to look downstairs with his eyes: "Look over there, the one by the window in the west..."

The window on the west side of the first floor was open, and a young man was sitting alone at a table with a stern expression, exuding an aura of keeping strangers away.

He was dressed in a hunting suit unique to the children of a rich family in Beimo, with a bone-white mace scimitar in his hand, his hair was slightly curled and braided, his stern face was slightly dark, and his sharp eyes showed a faint green.

"—that's definitely a big shot."

The man in the corner explained.

"Yesterday, I accidentally discovered that this person was invited in by the Seventh Young Master of the Chongshan clan without passing the inspection by the guards at the gate. It happened to be dinner time in the evening, and few people saw how he came in."

This person thought he had lowered his voice, but he had already attracted the attention of many people, and those people with deeper cultivation than him all cast their gazes over.

Someone said directly: "There is no need to guess. It is a member of the Tuoba clan."

... Feng Shengcheng Tuoba clan?

Many people were taken aback.

Although the power of the Tuoba clan is not as good as that of the Chongshan clan, their status is very special.Because the Tuoba clan is one of the three major clans in Fengsheng City.

As we all know, Tianzong was regarded as the state religion by Beimo.Beiyuan Snow Mountain is regarded by Tianzong as a holy place and a place where gods and men rest, so the Fengsheng City at the foot of the mountain is naturally a place of pilgrimage and a place to serve gods in Tianzong's view.

Outsiders who don't know Beimo, after listening to some people's explanations, suddenly realized that the Tuoba clan who can have a certain status in Fengsheng City, even if their strength is not strong, their status must be very special, and they might have something to do with Tianzong Inextricably linked.

Their guess was not wrong.

The backer behind the Tuoba family is Tianzong.To be precise, it was the Great Elder of Tianzong.

At the beginning, it was people from the Tuoba clan who obtained the Han Hailing by accident, but these people didn't know the goods, so they wanted to enshrine it as a treasure to the Great Elder.As soon as the elder heard the description, he knew that it was the Hanhai Order, so he secretly sent his grandson to bring it back.

Unexpectedly, Su Xinghan happened to have conflicts with Tuoba clan, and was wanted to leave Fengsheng City, and happened to run into Tianzong's team and snatched Han Hailing.From then on, he formed a series of enmity with Tianzong.

Of course, outsiders don't know the inside story of this. They only know that during this period of time, there was a loose cultivator named Nian who first provoked Tuoba clan, who made Tuoba clan want him to kill him, and then provoked Tianzong, who was arrested by him. The members of the Tianzong sect searched everywhere, and were finally besieged and killed by the elders of the Tianzong sect in Xuncheng...

——When talking about the Tuoba clan at this time, someone mentioned this incident that happened not long ago.

Those who came from Dongli Dayong heard about this for the first time, and some people asked curiously: "Who is this Bai Nian, who is so bold? I don't know if he is alive or dead now, or is he captured by Tianzong?" went?"

This question will have an answer in the next moment.

The young man who had been sitting by the window on the first floor, looking out the window suddenly stood up, with an expression of extreme respect on his stern face.

A cool wind blew through the window, and icy snowflakes fluttered in with the wind, and a faint whimpering sound suddenly sounded outside the building.Many people heard the sound and looked out.

I saw an exquisite building boat breaking through the water among the flowers in the lake. There were two people standing at the bow and stern of the boat, both of whom were covered by masks and dressed in costumes, but there was no sense of humor, on the contrary, there was an inexplicable sense of humor. weird.

"...The people of Tianzong? The four great masters?!"

The building boat came suddenly, and someone stepped out of the boat, wading in the water, stepping into the moon-watching building step by step, stepping on the Yingying blue waves.

The four masters who entered the Tao lowered their heads and lowered their eyes, and followed closely behind.

Everyone stared blankly at the man who appeared suddenly.

He was dressed in white, with faint embroidered patterns on it, just like ancient sacrificial clothing.His face was also white, more than three points whiter than Snow, looked a little sick, and his black hair was as black as ink.

He has a very good appearance, standing here alone can eclipse ninety percent of the beauties in the world.

But the first thing everyone noticed was not his face, but his eyes.

These are a pair of extremely empty and extremely cold eyes, always shrouded in a layer of sleepy mist, as if nothing can be included in them.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

The man in white walked upstairs step by step, with a slight cough in his throat, his face was cold, and he never glanced at the people around him.

But strangely, everyone couldn't bring up the slightest bit of anger in their hearts. Instead, they felt that it was a matter of course.

They stared at him blankly, as if watching a statue of a god step down from the altar and step into the world.
