Chapter 56: Breakthrough, Level 4
Early the next morning, Liu Yan got up early and waited in the courtyard of the village chief's house. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After a while, several people came to the courtyard one after another. The aura emanating from one of them was very strong, and Liu Yan felt much more powerful than his father.
These people looked Liu Yan up and down, and just as they were about to ask, a door in front of them was pushed open with a "squeak".
It was the village chief who came out of it!
"Hello village chief!" everyone bowed and saluted, and Liu Yan stood aside and hurriedly followed suit.
"Hmm," the village chief nodded, motioning for them to get up.
"I'll introduce you to you," he said, pulling Liu Yan to his side, "This is Liu Yan, a guest from our village, and he is willing to participate in the martial arts conference in place of Xiao Zhuang." I hope you treat him as one of your own. ā
Everyone nodded, and then they all smiled and introduced themselves to Liu Yan.
"Heavenly Rank Nine, Shen Muheng"
"Ninth level of the ground level, Shen Muping"
ā¦ā¦
After some understanding, Liu Yan realized that everyone present was at the top of each level, except for him, of course.
The reason why he agreed to let him go with him to participate in the martial arts conference was because there were very few people in the Xuan-level village, and most of them were from the Yellow and Earth Ranks.
"Okay, this time led by Mu Heng, everyone is ready to hit the road immediately. The village chief gave the order, and everyone began to set off.
After everyone left, the village chief raised his head and looked into the air, his chin swaying, not knowing what he was thinking.
In their group, several masters of the Heavenly and Earth Ranks rode an animal similar to a horse, which they called the "Pony Flame Beast", and the remaining five Xuan Rank rode in a spacious carriage, pulled by the Pony Flame Beast in front.
"From here, first go north, then east, cross the Heavenly Dao Gorge, and then continue to walk two hundred miles to reach Blazing City. A man named He Xiaodong in the carriage explained to Liu Yan.
"I see!" Liu Yan touched his chin and looked at the map in front of him, thinking carefully in his heart.
According to what He Xiaodong said, the whole journey will take about three days, and you can rush to Blazing City in the early morning of the fourth day, and you will need to walk for another two or three days to get to Yancheng.
As for this martial arts conference, nine people from each village participated. There are nearly two hundred villages under the jurisdiction of the entire Blazing City, so there are 1,800 contestants in the Blazing City alone.
However, in the end, only one percent of them were selected to participate in the competition in Yancheng, that is, 18 people. This is already very lucky, some large cities have four or five hundred villages under their jurisdiction, and the competition is even fiercer.
There are 18 people in each city who can go to Yancheng to participate in the martial arts tournament, and there are about forty cities in the entire Fire Empire, and there are about 800 people who participate.
If you can stand out among these more than 800 people, your future achievements will certainly not be low.
For example, Zhuang Tianlong, who is now serving in the Vulcan Guard, mentioned by the village chief before, was the one who defeated countless opponents in this martial arts conference and won the first place in the ground level, so he had the opportunity to enter the Vulcan Guard, and his current strength is at least the desolate rank, and the Vulcan Guard under his command is at least thousands!
And this has brought countless benefits to their village every year, not only are these taxes all exempted, but also the rewards issued by the Fire God Temple every year are enough for the village to cultivate more good hands.
"Brother Liu, are you sure about this martial arts conference?" He Xiaodong said with some concern. "After all, most of the people who were able to participate in the competition were the top people of each level, and the worst ones were also level eight or seven. ā
Liu Yan looked at his worried look, "haha" laughed twice, and then patted He Xiaodong's shoulder and said: "He Lao Er (the two brothers of the He family participated in the competition, and the boss is called He Zhongzheng), you can rest assured, I can run so far from the Fengyun Empire to get here alone, I must have my trick to press the bottom of the box, although I may not be able to win, at least I will not lose!"
He Xiaodong nodded silently and didn't say anything more.
Although what Liu Yan said has a certain amount of truth, he will not think that Liu Yan can beat the opponent of the eighth and ninth levels of the Xuan Rank.
This martial arts conference still has to rely on themselves, after all, Liu Yan is just a guest.
With Heaven Rank and Earth Rank masters in charge, everyone was not disturbed along the way.
After crossing the Heavenly Dao Gorge, Shen Muheng, who was riding a foal flame beast, suddenly felt the disorder of the surrounding aura. Startled, he turned his head to look back.
He Xiaodong was getting out of the carriage, and when he saw Shen Muheng looking at him, he hurriedly shouted at him: "Brother Shen, Liu Yan has broken through!"
When Shen Muheng heard this, he didn't have time to think about it, and shouted at everyone: "Everyone get down, leave the carriage, and protect the Dharma for Brother Liu!"
Without hesitation, everyone quickly got out of the car and got out of the foal flame beast, forming a circle around the carriage, looking around vigilantly.
Only Shen Muheng frowned, and turned his head from time to time to look in the direction of Liu Yan's location.
The movement of Liu Yan's breakthrough this time was too big, which made Shen Muheng very uneasy. Such a big movement is not like breaking through to the fourth level of the Xuan Rank, it seems that there is such a big movement when he broke through the eighth level of the Xuan Rank and reached the ninth level of the Xuan Rank.
It is naturally a good thing that Liu Yan's strength is high, but if it brings them additional trouble, it may affect the entire village.
The fluctuation of the aura lasted for about two hours, and then a visible vortex of aura appeared at the top of the carriage, and the surrounding aura frantically surged inside.
Liu Yan didn't expect the breakthrough to come so quickly, according to his previous estimate, it would take another two or three days to break through, but he didn't expect to break through halfway.
But it's okay, the strength is a little higher, and it will also help the martial arts conference in the future. Before, he compressed the aura in his body, so that the aura in his body was always in a state of fast fullness. Therefore, as soon as you cultivate, you will have an opportunity to make a breakthrough.
However, according to the current situation, the next breakthrough will be made in four or five days, of course, provided that he cultivates well every day.
With the last stream of aura inhaled into the body, the breakthrough was officially completed. Liu Yan opened his eyes and looked at his body, and a few strange lines appeared faintly on his arm, but they quickly disappeared.
Then he got up and walked under the carriage, when there was a trace of movement from inside the space stone.
"It's the Soul Moon!"
He hurriedly took out the soul moon, only to see a faint light flickering on the knife. There are nine small golden flowers that slowly spin!
Immediately afterwards, a crack appeared in a small flower near the hilt, and the crack slowly spread. In the end, the explosion of "bang" disappeared.
In a cave in the Holy Land where he was retreating, a slightly younger cultivator opened his eyes.
"This little guy, it's really fast!" he said and smiled, closed his eyes again, and resumed his cultivation state.
It was the seal blessed by the soul moon! Now one seal had disappeared, and only eight seals remained.
Liu Yan could feel the desire to fight coming from Soul Moon!
It longs for a fight!
