Chapter 17: The Phantom Shadow

"Senior Brother Song is still the same!" Mo Ye looked at the back of the black-robed man leaving, and laughed softly.

"Brother Mo, what's wrong with you, are you okay?" Liu Qing looked at Mo Ye and asked with concern.

"Nothing, met an old friend and had a chat with him. By the way, this thing is for you, and it will help you in the next ranking match!" Mo Ye said, placing a scroll in Liu Qing's hand.

"This is ......" Liu Qing took the scroll, opened it and saw the contents inside, and was stunned for a while.

At this time, Mo Ye patted her on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't let others know this information, you should take a good look first!"

Fortunately, the area left for these participating disciples was spacious enough, and there was no one else around them, and almost everyone's attention was now focused on Yu Zheng's body, so they wouldn't have any problem opening the scroll at the moment.

"Let's read it quickly, so as not to make any mistakes!" Mo Ye reminded, opened the scroll left for him, and quickly scanned the contents on it, and then fell into deep thought.

"It seems that there are still a lot of strong opponents in the beginner Xiaobi this time!" Mo Ye thought to himself, quietly putting the scroll into his storage bag.

"Brother Mo, I'm done!" Liu Qing put the scroll away, wanting to put it back in Mo Ye's hand.

"Take it, it's not something very important to me!" Mo Ye said.

The two scrolls added up to only ten spirit stones, and the things he obtained from the phantom swordsman he encountered that day were worth no less than four hundred spirit stones. With such a large amount of wealth, it is difficult to not lose.

"Okay!" Since Mo Ye had replied so, Liu Qing could only accept the scroll.

At this time, Yu Zheng began to speak again: "Elder Hu read out your rankings just now, I think you also have a general understanding of your strength, and then I will read the rules of the ranking competition!"

"In the ranking competition, you all have a tentative ranking researched by the elders, which is an estimate of the strength you have shown, you can challenge the disciples above you, and if you succeed in the challenge, you can swap places with them. ”

"Each disciple has three opportunities to challenge, after the three opportunities are used up, they are not allowed to continue the challenge, they can only passively respond, and after each challenge or battle, there is a half-hour rest period, during which no disciple is allowed to challenge him. ”

After Yu Zheng read out the rules of the ranking competition, all the participating disciples showed a clear look. This rule sounds fair, but everyone only has three chances to take on the challenge, so if you want to get a good place, you have to think about it.

"The ranking tournament will start in a quarter of an hour and end at sunset, please prepare accordingly for all the participating disciples!" Yu Zheng finished speaking and walked out of the ring.

"Brother Mo, what now?" asked Liu Qing.

"Wait!" Mo Ye looked at the disciples who were eager to try, "Let them explore the way for us first!"

It's still morning, and the ranking tournament won't end until sunset, so there's no benefit to taking on the stage too early. If he was not wrong, those disciples who had the strength to compete for the top ten would challenge in the afternoon, and the opportunity to challenge would be exhausted in the morning, wouldn't it be boring?

A quarter of an hour later, sure enough, a person jumped into the ring: "I'm Xiao Kuo, forty-eight, I want to challenge the thirty-six senior brother!"

"Oh, do you want to challenge me?" Zhou Yan, who was standing under the ring, suddenly smiled.

He had hidden his strength in previous competitions, so he got an estimated ranking of thirty-six. In fact, he is fully capable of hitting the top 10, and it is only because he wants to show his skills in the final ranking match that he has not exposed his strength. But now a person who was too weak for him to ignore jumped out and wanted to challenge him, which made him feel very funny.

"Forget it, let's just think of it as a warm-up event for the afternoon game!" Thinking like this, Zhou Yan stepped into the ring.

"Boy, remember, the person who defeated you is called Zhou Yan!" Zhou Yan looked at Xiao Kuo with disdain, and then put his hands behind his back.

"Damn, do you look down on me?" Xiao Kuo clenched his fists and rushed straight towards Zhou Yan.

"Flame Explosion Technique!" A fireball was thrown out of Xiao Kuo's hand and flew in the direction of Zhou Yan. Before the fireball arrived, it burst out in the air, turning into flames and flying towards Zhou Yan from all directions.

"Earth Spirit Shield!" Zhou Yan said unhurriedly, an earthy yellow light shield instantly enveloped him, and this seemingly ferocious flame hit the surface of the light shield, only causing it to ripple in circles.

"Damn!" Seeing that his spell didn't work, Xiao Kuo scolded angrily, the red light flashed in his hand, and a crimson palm phantom appeared from his hand and slapped towards Zhou Yan.

"Gravel fist!" Zhou Yan's right hand suddenly clenched into a fist, his arm instantly swelled in a circle, and the green tendons bulged out on the surface of his arm, looking so hideous and terrifying.

The next moment, a faint earthy yellow light appeared on the surface of Zhou Yan's fist, and a huge fist shadow burst out, directly hitting the palm phantom that flew towards him.

The sound of "boom" suddenly resounded throughout the ring, and everyone present could see that Xiao Kuo's palm phantom was shattered under the attack of Zhou Yan's fist shadow, and the remaining fist shadow hit Xiao Kuo with lightning speed, knocking him directly off the ring.

"Zhou Yansheng, the two sides keep their current rankings!" Yu Zheng immediately announced the results of the competition, and at the same time looked at Zhou Yan with an admiring gaze. In his opinion, Zhou Yan is also a good genius, and he may be able to achieve the top five results in this ranking competition.

"He seems to have some energy left, it seems that it is really difficult to reach the top ten in this ranking competition!" Mo Ye thought to himself as he looked at Zhou Yan with a calm face in the ring.

However, it is precisely because of the strength of the opponent that he can inspire the courage and belief in his heart not to admit defeat.

"I'm going to decide the first place in this beginner's competition!" Mo Ye whispered.

If others heard it, they would definitely think that he was dreaming, but with the two exercises of the Hundred Veins Forging Body Technique and the Creation of the Sky Technique, plus the Wind Blade Technique, the Thunder Collapse Spell and other powerful spells, as well as the cultivation close to the middle stage of the Spirit Condensation Realm, he still had a great hope of winning the first place.

"I've also finished reading the opponent's information, and I can't see anything from watching them compete here, so let's cultivate in place! If I succeed in cultivating Phantom Kill before the afternoon challenge, then I will have a better chance of winning the first place!" Mo Ye sat cross-legged on the ground, began to abandon all distractions and distractions, and began to comprehend Phantom Kill without distractions.

"Brother Mo is working so hard?" Liu Qing, who was beside him, smiled slightly when he saw Mo Ye's cultivation without distractions.

She also understands how fierce the competition in the ranking competition is, and it is precisely because of this, the chance of standing out from it is very small, but looking at Mo Ye's calm appearance, she must be able to enter the top ten!

"Phantom Kill, what is its focus?" Mo Ye pondered in his mind, this was a place that had plagued him for many days, and it was precisely because of the interference of this confusion that he encountered many obstacles in the process of cultivating Phantom Kill.

If you look at the phantom kill shown by the phantom swordsman that day, the focus of this phantom killing spell is obviously on the phantom side, conjuring two clones to confuse the opponent's sight, and then kill with one hit.

When he hadn't cultivated Phantom Kill, he naturally felt that such a clone was very powerful, but after in-depth cultivation, he felt that this cultivation method was a little wrong, in short, it felt weird.

"Was it my sensory mistake, or was there something wrong with that person's cultivation method in the first place?" Mo Ye couldn't help but have doubts in his heart.

In fact, after he looked through the books that recorded Phantom Killing, he realized that this was not the whole story, but just a spell that was finally simplified by the excerpter according to the fragments of a profound spell, after countless trials and modifications.

According to the description of the person in the book, the original power of this Phantom Kill is definitely more than a mid-level spell, its power should be greater, but after modification, it can no longer recover its original power.

Moreover, the original name of this spell was not Phantom Kill, Phantom Kill was just a random name given by that person after modifying the fragment of this advanced spell. However, just by looking at the spell that the man modified, he could guess how advanced his cultivation was. Judging from the memories of his previous life, this was definitely not something that an Enlightening Realm cultivator could do.

"Maybe that person is cultivating this spell in the wrong direction, then I can't limit myself to his understanding of such a spell!" Mo Ye thought for a long time, and finally said.

However, Mo Ye had no experience at all when it came to supplementing a spell, although he was also an existence in the Spiritual Realm in his previous life, but the spells he cultivated were pitiful, let alone completing them on the basis of cultivating a spell.

"There shouldn't be any big problems with the route of spiritual power, it should be some minor mistakes. Thinking about it, Mo Ye began to try to deflect the original route of the spiritual power when he released the Phantom Kill, but the next moment, an unbearable sharp pain instantly hit him.

"Shhh

"Change it again!" The pain slowly subsided, and just as Mo Ye was about to modify the spiritual power operation route again, he was shocked to find that his spiritual power was operating uncontrollably and autonomously.

"This ...... What's going on?" Mo Ye couldn't calm down anymore, he had never encountered this situation before, could it be the hell?

However, Mo Ye soon discovered that these spiritual powers were running along the meridians in his body according to a specific law, and a few breaths operated for a cycle, and at the same time, four golden characters also appeared in his mind-Phantom Shadow Escape.
