Chapter 778: On the ninth day of the ninth month of September, the sword cultivators gathered
The conversation with Xue Wuye naturally had a great impact on Zhang Ruochen.
Since, Xue Wuye could guess that he and Chi Yao were likely to have an extraordinary relationship. Other people must have guessed this, but Zhang Ruochen was dead, so they didn't deliberately track it down.
However, as long as the news of Zhang Ruochen's death spreads, there will definitely be many people to dig out the secrets behind it, and in the end, they will definitely find out the Crown Prince Shengming eight hundred years ago.
Xue Wuye is a smart person, he will not do things that harm others and himself, if he wants to spread the news, he has already done so, and he will never wait until now.
It is very likely that so far, he does not know whether Zhang Ruochen is an enemy or a friend?
Therefore, Zhang Ruochen is not too worried now, everything allows him to develop naturally, and there will definitely be a result in the future.
Zhang Ruochen came to the mansion of the Xuanji Sword Saint, originally wanting to see Huang Yanchen, after all, after the Sword Conference, the two of them would definitely have fewer opportunities to meet.
However, he learned that Huang Yanchen was refining a drop of the Dragon Emperor's blood in retreat, preparing to attack the eighth transformation of the Ichthyosaurus, so he didn't bother her.
On this day, Zhang Ruochen spent all his time instructing Han Xue's swordsmanship. It wasn't until the next day, that is, on the evening of the eighth day of the ninth month, that he returned to the Sword Pavilion again.
The first floor of the Sword Pavilion, the eighteenth room of Qingzi.
This is a huge temple with a length and width, which looks golden and brilliant, extremely wide, and the top ten kendo geniuses in each realm determined by the kendo competition are all gathered here.
Gai Tianjiao, Silkworm Dong, Zhao Wuyan, Han Huan, Gai Hao, Mu Jiji, Xun Hualiu...... , a total of dozens of people, all of them are the top kendo geniuses of the Liangyi Sect.
Everyone stood in the position below, and at the same time saluted the Burial Moon Sword Saint, and said in unison, "Meet the Sword Saint." ”
The Burial Moon Sword Saint sat on the high platform in the center of the temple, wearing a purple shirt and a purple gold crown, looking quite majestic, and said, "Tomorrow, it will be the Sword Conference." You are the best of the disciples of the Holy Tradition, and you will represent the Liangyi Sect in this grand event. After a period of cultivation in the recent past, everyone's strength has made great progress, and I believe they are all ready. ”
Next, the Burial Moon Sword Saint gave another lecture before letting everyone retreat, leaving only Gai Tianjiao and Zhang Ruochen alone.
The expression of the Burial Moon Sword Saint was quite serious, and he said: "The sword competition is indeed to select some elite talents, but unfortunately, they are still too immature, and tomorrow's battle mainly depends on the performance of the two of you." ”
"The disciple must go all out and swear to defend the honor of the Liangyi Sect. Gai Tianjiao said.
"The disciple will definitely do his best to protect the Sword Pavilion. Zhang Ruochen said.
The Burial Moon Sword Saint nodded, looked at Gai Tianjiao, and asked, "Tianjiao, how many drops of divine blood have you refined?"
"Counting the three drops in the Divine Spring, five drops have been refined. Gai Tianjiao said.
The Burial Moon Sword Saint said: "Tomorrow's sacrificial ceremony, do you want to rush the sixth drop?"
Gai Tianjiao smiled slightly and said, "If I hadn't swallowed the Divine Spring, I could have tried to refine another drop of Divine Blood."
"However, now that my cultivation has reached the extreme of the Ichthyosaurus Realm, once I start refining the divine blood, I will definitely not be able to suppress the realm, and in an instant, I will break through to the half-saint realm. Breaking through to the half-saint realm and refining the divine blood is no longer meaningful, but a waste. ”
The more divine blood that the cultivators of the Fish Dragon Realm refine, the greater the benefits, and the key is that the Holy Soul has not yet been formed. In this way, the cultivated divine seal can be integrated into the holy soul.
In the Holy Soul, the more divine seals are integrated, the more powerful they become, and the more acute their perception of the Holy Dao becomes. If so, controlling the Holy Soul and exerting the power of the Divine Seal is enough to crush the demi-saints of the same realm.
However, when he reached the half-saint realm, the holy soul had already taken shape, and even if he refined the divine blood and cultivated the divine seal, he could not integrate into the holy soul.
Of course, if there is enough divine blood refined by the semi-saints, it can also be sanctified in the flesh.
It's just that even the divine blood stored by the Middle Ages family is quite rare, and it is already quite good to be able to take out a few drops in each era and use them to cultivate the best Ichthyosaurus Realm cultivators and lay a certain foundation for him in the Holy Dao.
How can there be so much divine blood used to cultivate a flesh saint?
As the saying goes, good steel is used on the blade, mainly because there is too little good steel. With enough good steel, who wouldn't want to build a peerless sword?
The Burial Moon Sword Saint's gaze looked at Zhang Ruochen and said, "Lin Yue, you haven't started refining divine blood yet, have you?"
Zhang Ruochen nodded and said, "That's right." ”
The Burial Moon Sword Saint took out a three-inch square metal box from his sleeve, and with a slight push of his palm, it turned into a gust of wind, and flew towards Zhang Ruochen, saying: "This is a drop of divine blood, tomorrow, the sacrificial ceremony before the start of the Sword Conference, you can take this opportunity to refine it with the help of the power of the gods." ”
Zhang Ruochen caught the metal box, his lips moved, as if he wanted to say something.
The Burial Moon Sword Saint naturally saw that something was wrong with Zhang Ruochen's demeanor, so he asked, "What's wrong?"
"Just a drop?" Zhang Ruochen said.
The Burial Moon Sword Saint was stunned at first, and then smiled: "This time, you try it first, if you can refine it, it will naturally be a good thing." If you can't refine it, don't blame yourself for wasting a drop of divine blood, when you break through the ninth transformation of the fish dragon, the sect will naturally give you another drop. For geniuses, the sect has never been stingy. ”
Zhang Ruochen said: "Could it be that the disciple can't refine two drops at once?"
Hearing this, Gai Tianjiao, who was standing on the side, laughed out loud first, and said, "Senior Brother Lin Yue, Senior Sister knows that you are a genius, but you may not know how huge the power contained in the divine blood is. If so, if you can successfully refine a drop of divine blood in the eighth transformation of the Ichthyosaurus, it is already quite a remarkable achievement. You still want to refine two drops at once?"
"Is there no one who can refine two drops of divine blood at once?" Zhang Ruochen asked.
Gai Tianjiao shook her head and said, "In the entire Kunlun Realm, a Fish Dragon Realm cultivator who can refine two drops of divine blood can count it on ten fingers. After refining the first drop of divine blood, most of them have to spend one or two years to adapt to the power of the divine seal in the body, and constantly temper the physique before they can refine the second drop of divine blood. ”
"The character who refines two drops of divine blood at one time has never appeared since the Middle Ages. ”
The Burial Moon Sword Saint also said: "Lin Yue, don't be too ambitious first, the talent in the sword path is high, it doesn't mean that you can withstand the power of divine blood." A drop of divine blood, dripping on the Hundred Pattern Hallows, can penetrate it, one can imagine, how terrifying the power contained? Isn't your body even harder than the Hundred Pattern Hallows?"
Zhang Ruochen looked at the metal box in his hand and asked, "Since the power of divine blood is so powerful, how can the cultivator refine it?"
Seeing that Zhang Ruochen began to ask questions humbly, the Burial Moon Sword Saint immediately nodded with satisfaction and said, "Tonight, this Saint will teach you the method of refining divine blood." ”
In the next time, the Burial Moon Sword Saint told Zhang Ruochen all about the method of refining divine blood, as well as some matters to be paid attention to.
It wasn't until the early morning of the next day that Zhang Ruochen mastered everything.
Subsequently, the Burial Moon Sword Saint led Zhang Ruochen to the square outside the Sword Pavilion, step by step, and walked upwards until he came to the top of the altar.
On the altar, there are thousands of brute beasts, which are bound with iron chains. Later, when the sacrificial ceremony begins, they will all be killed, and their blood will be used to open the bridge between heaven and earth and communicate with the gods.
According to the instructions of the Burial Moon Sword Saint, Zhang Ruochen sat at the bottom of a pool with a length and width of seven zhang in the center of the top of the altar.
"Remember, refining the divine blood is quite dangerous, and the slightest mistake will kill you, if you sense that your body can't withstand the power of the divine blood, you must immediately cut off the connection with the divine blood. The Burial Moon Sword Saint repeatedly advised.
"The disciple understands. ”
Zhang Ruochen closed his eyes and began to adjust his mood.
The Burial Moon Sword Saint stared at Zhang Ruochen at the bottom of the pool, took a deep breath, and hoped in his heart that Zhang Ruochen could refine the divine blood, so that he could have the strength to fight with Shao Lin. Otherwise, he will surely be defeated.
Of course, these words, the Burial Moon Sword Saint all hid in his heart, and he didn't say them, for fear of causing too much pressure on Zhang Ruochen, but hurting him.
Immediately, the Burial Moon Sword Saint stepped down from the altar and walked towards the gate outside the square to greet the guests who participated in the Sword Debate.
The sky gradually brightened, and a hundred-zhang five-colored holy ship, wrapped in a cloud of colorful glow, flew from afar, passed through the mountain of the ancient god mountain, and landed on the top of the third mountain.
The sword cultivators who participated in the Sword Discussion Conference walked down from the five-colored holy ship in an endless stream, entered the square outside the Sword Pavilion, and gathered in various directions around the altar.
Wushi Qianzhuang, Imperial Court, Military Department, Four Elephant Sect, Demon Sect, Bagua Sect...... In the entire Kunlun Realm, the top forces are all led by sage-level sword cultivators.
In addition, there are also some loose cultivators with extremely high kendo realms who received an invitation from the Liangyi Sect and became guests of the Sword Conference.
There is no doubt that the monks who can come to the Sword Pavilion are either first-class geniuses, or half-saint and saint-level overlords, and even, there are some old kendo monsters who have lived for a long time, and they also appeared at the Sword Discussion Conference.
After all, during the Sword Conference, a Sage-level sword cultivator could enter the seventh layer of the Sword Pavilion and comprehend the wordless sword spectrum together. This alone has an irresistible attraction for those kendo veterans.
"Look, the Nine Shadows Sword Saint has appeared, it is said that today he is going to have a life-and-death battle with the Xuanji General Saint, and I don't know who the last person will be alive?"
The younger generation of sword cultivators were all excited when they saw the Nine Shadows Sword Saint.
If it weren't for the Sword Conference, they would probably never have seen a Sword Saint in their lifetime, but today, there have been several Sword Saints, each of whom is famous all over the world.
The Nine Shadows Sword Saint was wearing a blue-gray cloth robe, a pair of simple straw sandals, which looked extremely ordinary, and on him, there was no aura that a strong man should have.
In addition, the five disciples of the Nine Shadows Sword Saint, the Sage-level sword cultivators and half-saint-level sword cultivators of the Eastern Regions Black Market, and some sword geniuses of the Fish Dragon Realm, a total of nearly a hundred people, followed behind the Nine Shadows Sword Saint, and they all appeared together.
It didn't take long for the Xuanji Sword Saint to lead the sword cultivators of the Eastern Regions Sacred Courtyard to also appear in the Sword Pavilion.
The sword cultivation received by the five-colored holy ship was more and more, making the Sword Pavilion more and more lively, and from time to time there were legendary characters appearing, causing a huge sensation.
All the people gathered at the bottom of the altar, the conch, the trumpet, the bell, the chime...... , the various instruments used in the sacrifice began to play together. The sacrificial ceremony of the Sword Debate is finally about to begin. (To be continued.) )
