Volume 1: The Beginning of the Storm Chapter 47: The Assembly Begins
Ye Xiao built a mound of earth on the ground with great care to mourn the great Dragon Lion Fire Emperor.
With mixed tastes, Ye Xiao naturally felt grief in his heart, but for him, this grief at this time can also be transformed into a kind of motivation.
Ye Xiao relieved himself and looked at Ning Er, as if asking, and as if talking to himself: "It took about a month to find the Dragon Lion Fire Emperor before, but now that it has been tested and refined the Nine Yang Divine Dragon Flame, it will take two months at most. Return immediately at this moment, leaving plenty of time to prepare, or try to go to the next city in cultivation. That's enough time, right?"
Ye Xiao completed the time planning for the future, and he was also high-spirited and ready to do a big job.
Listening to Ye Xiao's words, Ning Er sneered, and then gave Ye Xiao a slap in the face: "You are simply wishful thinking! Since the day you came here, it has been roughly a few months in the past, plus the previous more than a month, the half-year period you said should be about the same." β
"What?!" Hearing this, Ye Xiao was immediately dumbfounded, and Ning'er's words made him a little incredulous: "Impossible, how could it take such a long time?"
Ye Xiao shook his head vigorously, not believing what Ning Er said at all, but then he gradually came to his senses, Ning Er's words, which time was wrong? Which time was false? Ning Er said that the time was about the same, I am afraid that nine out of ten is the truth.
Thinking about it this way, the half-year period has passed quietly, which means that the Canglan Conference, which is held once every 30 years and caused a sensation in the entire Canglan City, is about to kick off!
"No, I need to hurry up and get back as soon as possible. Ye Xiao, who understood everything, was immediately a little in a hurry. In the end, it was under Ning Er's careful command that Ye Xiao finally took the step of leaving the Wolong Mountain Range.
When he first arrived half a year ago, Ye Xiao was just a wasted man with no spiritual power, but now he was a powerful martial artist who had cultivated to step into the fourfold realm of the Xuan Ling Realm, and even possessed all kinds of rare treasures. Now he must be the most powerful one among the young generation in Canglan City.
The spiritual power of the Xuanling Quadruple Realm, "The Great Wilderness Divine Body", Jiuyang Shenlong Yan...... Now the Wolong Mountain Range can't stop Ye Xiao's footsteps.
Canglan Domain, Canglan Courtyard.
Red lanterns are hung high, and firecrackers are ringing in unison. Today's Canglan Courtyard is also particularly lively.
Because the 30-year event of Canglan City is going to kick off here. Canglan City is now the mainstay of the Canglan Domain, how can the Canglan Courtyard ignore the major events that will determine the future fate of the Canglan Domain?
In the recent days, all the families of Canglan have arrived one after another, and at this time, they are all lined up around the vast and endless school field in Canglan Courtyard. If you look closely, you will find that many families seem to have a new look, and the aura and momentum of the clansmen are far beyond the past, and it is obvious that this family has gained a lot from the one-month trip to the Wolong Mountains half a year ago.
Although these families have improved greatly, they are still small compared to the real transformation. For example, the four Canglan companies led by them, the improvement of their comprehensive strength is more than one and a half stars.
At the front of each family stands the head of the family. After the head of the family, there are all the genius boys and girls in each family who participated in this vicissitudes conference. Most of their cultivation was close to the late stage of the Mortal Spirit Realm. But this level is far from sufficient. If he wants to have a chance to gain a firm foothold and fight for the final place in the Canglan Conference, then his cultivation must at least touch the threshold of the Xuanling Realm. Without the guarantee of terrorist strength, all wishes are empty words.
And the most prosperous cultivation among the younger generation is the Yang eldest son Yang Sheng who everyone saw in the Yang family half a year ago. In half a year, he had successfully broken through from the fourfold peak of the Xuanling Realm to the fivefold realm of the Xuanling Realm. At this time, he was already proud of the crowd, and he left all the young children who were chasing him far behind.
But if you want to say that the biggest change is the Ling family.
The importance of the Canglan Conference is self-evident, and it is highly valued by the senior management of the Canglan Academy. On the high platform in front of us, there are important people who came to this Canglan Conference.
Today, all the high-level leaders of Canglan Courtyard have appeared one after another, followed by the city lord of Canglan City, as well as the important people sent by Cangzhou City and Lanzhou City. Although these forces usually work separately, they are not old and dead, but they often meet and learn. Although the Canglan Domain pursues the survival concept of the jungle, it also needs all major forces to join forces to make fire, so as to seek a glimmer of life in this troubled world.
Under the stone platform, all the families were already waiting in a neat line.
"Silenceβ" A loud bell resounded in every corner, and the noisy school field was suddenly silent.
The figure of a black-robed old man slowly descended from the sky and landed on a stone platform at the waist of the high platform. If you are acquainted, you will find that the old man in the black robe is Yang Hai of the Yang family, who is the elder of the Yang family in Canglan Courtyard. Canglan Academy asked Yang Hai to preside over this Canglan Conference this time, and obviously has a rough judgment on the final result.
"Thirty years, this conference has officially kicked off!"
As soon as Yang Hai finished speaking, the folk bands that had been waiting on both sides of the school began to beat gongs and drums. It was also an honor for them to be invited to witness the event, so they were even more energetic when they played and sang.
After a burst of blowing, the sound of festive music gradually stopped after Yang Hai raised his hand.
"The rules of the Canglan Conference are still the same as usual, and they are divided into two rounds. β
"In the first round, in the order of the draw results, the major families faced each other in pairs until the winner was produced. Among the families, once they accumulate five losses, they will be eliminated from this vicissitudes conference. When half of the families have been eliminated, the first round is over. β
In the second round, the remaining half of the families were divided into groups of twos and sent five young children from each family to take turns on the field, until all five of the families were defeated. In the end, the only family that remained on the stage was the first family in Canglan who competed in this Canglan Conference!"
However, the old man once again reiterated that the Canglan Domain pursues the law of the jungle, and everyone must know it. I hope that you will understand this and keep it in mind. β
The younger children with higher cultivation are all ready to move, eager to be assigned to weaker opponents. And the lower cultivation is silently praying in his heart, longing for his family to take a few more steps back, and also praying that his opponent will not kill him.
"But the risks are often followed by great rewards. The top ten families in this year's Canglan Conference can all receive rewards from the Canglan Academy, and the top families of this year's cantonal spirit artifact can even get a Heavenly Spirit Vessel from the master's hand!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked, and no one expected that the reward for the first place would be so rich this time!
The Heavenly Spirit Weapon, as the name suggests, is a powerful spirit weapon created by a Heavenly Spirit Realm-level Heavenly Forging Master. In the Canglan Domain, the Heavenly Spirit Realm is the pinnacle. Looking at the entire Canglan Domain, there was only one refiner with a heaven-grade forging technique. Therefore, in the Canglan Domain, the Heavenly Spirit Vessel is already rare and rare, and this time the Canglan Courtyard actually wanted to take out a Heavenly Spirit Weapon to reward the first family, which really shocked and ecstatic many families.
Those who are not in the know may think how generous Canglan Yuan is, but those who are good at observing details have long seen through everything. Canglan Academy attaches so much importance to the Canglan Conference this time, and the clues are all pointing to the Yang family. Obviously, the high-level leaders of the Canglan Domain have already thought that the Yang family will definitely be the darling of this Canglan Conference. The name of the first, they are bound to win.
After the grand opening ceremony, it was a worrying lottery.
The draw is a matter of luck. If it is favored by God, you can get a good sign, and your family will also have the opportunity to advance to the final ten. If God didn't want him to win, then in the first battle, this family would encounter a powerful opponent like the four families.
A burly man with a pitch-black box in his hand walked slowly to the heads of the family. Those who don't know will basically think that this is just an ordinary black box.
But don't underestimate it, if you know the goods, you will lose your voice. Because the material used to forge this chest is a rare mineral deposit called the Spirit Devouring Stone! As the name suggests, the Spirit Devouring Stone can absorb the spiritual power released by the martial artist to a certain extent. If some family owners have bad intentions and try to do things in secret, such as when they want to use their spiritual power to perceive the inside of the box during the lottery, the Spirit Devouring Stone will devour all the spiritual power released by him, thus extinguishing this thought. Therefore, the price of the Spirit Devouring Stone is extremely expensive, and in the vast Canglan Domain, I am afraid that only the richest and most powerful Canglan Courtyard can come up with such a big stroke.
The black box made of the Spirit Devouring Stone quickly came to the Ling family's team. Yang Hai followed the strong man all the way, and at this time he also stopped in front of everyone in the Ling family, and smiled at the leader of the people: "Master of the Ling family, I am very much looking forward to the performance of the Ling family in this year's Canglan Conference, I don't know if it will be as wonderful as thirty years ago." β
The person headed by the Ling family is Ling Tianhao, the head of the Ling family. Hearing Yang Hai's words, Ling Tianhao smiled indifferently: "Tianhao is also looking forward to the performance of the Yang family. β
The Ling family and the Yang family have been fighting openly and secretly for many years, and the other family heads are not surprised by this. Ling Tianhao didn't pay much attention to it anymore, pulled up his long sleeved robe quite a bit, and reached out to take out a wooden token from the black box. After the extraction, Yang Hai and the burly man turned around and left, continuing their mission.
However, Ling Tianhao held the wooden token that had just been drawn not long ago, and the whole person was stunned, and he didn't make any moves, except to stare at the big character on the token.
On the token, there was a big word "Yang" written on it! That is to say, the Ling family, the Yang family, and the two most powerful families in Canglan City were going to collide with each other in the first battle!
"Big brother, this ......" Ling Renjie behind Ling Tianhao also saw the big words on the token, and was immediately surprised: they didn't expect that they were going to meet the Yang family in the first battle.
I don't know if this is God's arrangement, or if it has been done in private.
"The mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, just look at it calmly. Ling Tianhao came to his senses and faced everything indifferently.
The draw also came to an end quickly. All the families are discussing tactics in their own ways, arranging who in the family will fight against the families in the lottery in the first battle.
"Dad, is it good to hand over this first battle to Xue Yao?" In the team of the younger generation of the Ling family, Ling Xueyao stood at the forefront, naturally noticing the expressions on the faces of the three elders, and even hearing their conversation, she immediately recommended herself and wanted to fight for the first time.
The Ling family has gained a lot in the Wolong Mountain Range, and all the young children have been greatly improved, and the strength of the Ling family has also risen. But to say that the most terrifying progress is this Ling Xueyao, the eldest lady of the Ling family.
