Sitting on the futon in the cultivation room, Gu Xuan closed his eyes slightly, reminiscing about the conversation with Ximen Fei and Ximen Qi.

After a long time, Gu Xuan opened his eyes, and the edge was exposed, like a cold knife, which made people dare not look directly.

"Senior, this retreat is only one month, is it to cultivate the Void Strength, or to improve the True Strength?"

"Compress the true power first, and then cultivate the void energy, Dabi is very important, refine the void chain as soon as possible, just in case. ”

Gu Xuan closed his eyes and settled down, and for ten days in a row, he repeatedly compressed the true power generated by the medium-grade Nourishing Pill to the extreme.

Even if it is five medium-grade Yangli Pills, Zhenli has only improved by a small margin.

"According to this cultivation progress, when you run out of top-grade Nourishing Power Pills, your true power will be raised to the limit. ”

"That has to be the end of the big competition, before the final improvement, first cultivate the weak strength. ”

Gu Xuan took out the hand-copied secret book, although the handwriting was crooked and unsightly, but it was interesting to read.

After a day and a night, Gu Xuan began to condense the small magic talismans.

There are only five tricks recorded in the cheats: the Void Spear, the Void Arrow, the Void Blade, the Void Tower, and the Void Chain.

Each move requires a separate spell rune, and Gu Xuan only intends to cultivate the "Void Chain" in order to save his true power.

After more than half a month, Gu Xuan practiced the Great Fa Rune, and he also sank to the bottom of the lower dantian.

Performing ordinary magic techniques, the true power penetrates into the Great Magic Rune, and it can be transformed into the corresponding true qi in an instant, and transported out of the body.

The speed at which true power is transformed into virtual energy is extremely slow, and it can only be transformed in advance, and it exists in the perineum acupoint.

When the void energy is exhausted, it must be converted and stored again.

Not only that, but the true power required to transform the void energy is several times more than that of ordinary magic techniques.

"It's so troublesome to use Void Energy, but I hope it's powerful enough. ”

Gu Xuan sighed with emotion, and began to urge the true power to transform it into virtual energy.

It took two days to turn Sancheng's true power into nothingness.

After transformation, the void energy is as transparent as clear water, and it is stored in the perineal acupoint.

In the next few days, Gu Xuandu used his true power to carry out the Great Cycle of Zhou Tian.

After a month of retreat, his true power and combat power have increased, but Linghe Xiaoqing has not been able to wake up for a long time.

......

Xun Dong has gone to Feiquan City, and Xiao Yi has become the new steward of the Scholarly Academy.

After Gu Xuan came out of the customs, he didn't care about taking a bath, and found Xiao Yao to learn some news, so he sent him to invite Dao Miao.

After dinner, Ximen Fei, Ximen Xiang and Wu Gang were invited to gather in the living room of the Scholar's Courtyard.

Ximen Fei was dressed in a delicate brocade robe, taking the old path of the Great Power Realm, and his cultivation was not in a hurry, and he was still a mid-stage cultivator.

Ximen Xiang was dressed in white, relying on external forces to advance to the later stage, his true power was scarce, and he was in retreat for several months, all of which were consolidating his cultivation, and he did not practice the method of controlling the body and the method of controlling the force.

Wu Gang was dressed in a blue robe, although he advanced to the late stage, he was in a hurry, and he barely practiced the body control method, and he didn't have time to practice the power control method, so he could only use the talisman to cast it.

When a cadre of people greeted each other, Xiao Ji personally offered spiritual tea.

Ximen Fei took a sip of spiritual tea and said straight to the point: "It's the right time for Brother Shu to go out, the warrior Dabi is over today, take a little rest tonight, and tomorrow will be the Dao Miao challenge." ”

Gu Xuan took the lid of the cup and flicked the spiritual tea a few times, and said with a smile: "If you want to come to the warrior competition, it must be wonderful, I missed the retreat, and I regret a lot." ”

Ximen Fei continued: "Compared with the big competition three years ago, the strength of the warriors in the villa has indeed improved, but if you want to say that it is exciting, it is not as good as Nangong Yan's challenge to Brother Shu back then." ”

Gu Xuan asked, "Who wants to challenge the Dao Miao of the Mountain Villa?"

Ximen Fei said: "According to reliable sources, there are only Brother Shu and Ximen Qi. ”

Gu Xuan looked surprised, and couldn't help but look at Wu Gang: "Wu Gang is not involved?"

"The retreat was in a hurry, and I didn't even have time to practice the Strength Control Method, so how could I dare to go on stage and offer my ugliness?"

Wu Gang smiled wryly and glanced at Gu Xuan meaningfully.

"I heard that the owner of the village once showed his tone and asked about the grand ceremony, the foreign surname Dao Miao seemed to be able to get a spirit elixir, and I and Zheng Taiyi combined, so I simply didn't go to the blessed land for thousands of years to die. ”

Gu Xuan did not forget Wu Gang's original pledge of allegiance, and said: "Wu Gang rest assured, even if there is a difference in time, Brother Fei will try his best to get a spirit elixir for you." ”

Ximen Fei's eyes flashed, his waist straightened slightly, and he hurriedly said: "This is natural, and I also ask Wu Gang to cultivate well." ”

Wu Gang arched his hand and said: "Thank you, Young Master Fei, I will know the Entu report." ”

Ximen Fei smiled with satisfaction, and then looked at Gu Xuan: "Does Brother Shu intend to become an exploration warrior?"

Gu Xuan took a sip of spiritual tea: "During the retreat, I thought about it repeatedly, and finally decided to fight, after all, led by Emperor Xi, the opportunity is rare, even if it is a sea of swords and fires, I have to break through." ”

After the salute, Ximen Xiang spoke out for the first time: "I support my brother, that is the high-ranking Emperor Xi, and it is difficult for ordinary monks to see each other." ”

Ximen Fei said with a smile: "I know that Brother Shu will not miss it, and he doesn't need to become the top name of the villa tomorrow, he just needs to defeat the head of the lineage." ”

Gu Xuan chuckled: "Then tomorrow's choice will be much greater." ”

Ximen Fei said solemnly: "Even so, Brother Shu should not be careless tomorrow, the top five warriors have strong combat power, and they are not idle." ”

Gu Xuan's expression moved, and he hurriedly asked, "Who are they?"

Ximen Fei is like a number of treasures: "Ximen Zhai, Ximen Tai, Ximen Jing, Ximen Chang and Jingxiu." ”

Ximen Xiang chuckled: "Brother Fei only reports the name of the person, and the scholar has never had anything to do with the samurai, so he may not know each other, so he might as well introduce it." ”

Ximen Fei continued: "The foreign surname is the warrior Jingxiu, who is the first name in Dabi and has the highest qualifications. The two brothers, Ximen Zhai and Ximentai, are the second or third in Dabi, and they all have middle and upper qualifications. The fourth place in the Ximen Jing belongs to our side, and Ximen is often on the side of Ximenhao. ”

Wu Gang suddenly reminded: "If Young Master Shu and Ximen Qi pick the same opponent, they need to have a competition first, the winner will challenge, and the loser will be eliminated." ”

Gu Xuanyi raised his eyebrows: "Who do you think Ximen Qi will challenge?"

Wu Gang was the first to speak: "I think it's the Ximen Jing, the strength is weak, and it's the person of the Young Master Fei." ”

Ximen Fei couldn't help but touch his chin: "If I were Ximen Qi, I would choose Ximen Chang, and then trade privately, so that the other party would take the initiative to admit defeat." ”

Wu Gang opened his mouth, as if he wanted to refute, but then did not say anything.

Ximen Xiang looked at Gu Xuan and asked directly, "What choice did the scholar make?"

Gu Xuan smiled casually: "Choose at will, if you face Ximen Qi, you can defeat it." ”

Wu Gang smiled bitterly: "Only Young Master Shu can have such a strong confidence." ”

Ximen Fei praised: "The two experiences have made Brother Shu more knowledgeable and more confident and calm." ”

......

Not long after the three Dao Miao left, the Scholar Academy ushered in an unexpected guest, who was actually Ximen Qi.

The visitor was a guest, Gu Xuan naturally would not refuse to leave, and invited Ximen Qi into the living room with a smile on his face, and instructed Xiao Yuan to make tea and treat him politely.

The two sat next to each other in the living room, across a coffee table, and Ximen Qi directly leaned out his telekinesis and carefully observed Gu Xuan.

After retracting his mental power, Ximen Qi was surprised: "No wonder Young Master Shu wants to retreat, even the warrior Dabi has not appeared, it has only been a month, and Young Master Shu's momentum has actually reached a higher level." ”

Gu Xuan didn't have the slightest smugness, but sighed with emotion: "This body is commendable, and the qualifications are commendable, and the spiritual root is a mess, and I am afraid that in the future, I will be like Young Master Qi, and I will be stuck at the Gangli Realm for many years." ”

Ximen Qi sighed lightly: "Young Master Shu has experienced the difficulty of seizing and giving up, and his temperament has changed a lot, compared with the past, it is like two people." As far as the spiritual root is concerned, we can be regarded as sympathetic, which is one of the reasons why I asked you to join forces in the first place. ”

Seeing that the small medicine brought the spiritual tea, Ximen Qi stopped talking.

Gu Xuan took a sip of spiritual tea while it was hot, and got back to business: "As far as I know, entering the Thousand Autumns Blessed Land is a random teleportation of the magic circle, and it is possible to appear in any corner. ”

"Thank you, Young Master Shu, then it's a word. Ximen Qi changed his words, "Tomorrow's Dao Miao challenge, just you and I participate, I don't know who Young Master Shu will challenge?"

Gu Xuan glanced at Ximen Qi, and asked instead of answering: "Young Master Qi came to the door overnight, I don't know what he thinks?"

Ximen Qi expressed his chest directly: "I can't talk about it, I just want to ask the young master not to challenge Ximen Chang, and in return, I will not challenge Ximen Jing." ”

Gu Xuan was noncommittal, and smiled slightly: "I want to hear the reason." ”

Ximen Qi took a sip of spiritual tea and said in a straight voice: "The reason is very simple, in order to summon the elixir, I must join forces with Ximen Jing to collect more elixir." ”

Without waiting for Gu Xuan to reply, Ximen Qi gritted his teeth and continued: "As far as the young master of the book is concerned, the chance for us to go together is actually not big. This time I asked the grand ceremony, if I don't go all out, I have no possibility of advancement. ”

Gu Xuan sighed secretly, and his expression was correct: "According to what Young Master Qi said, this grand ceremony is also my only chance to advance." ”

"Thank you, Young Master, for your understanding. ”

Ximen Qi looked slightly happy, hurriedly thanked him, exchanged a few words with Gu Xuan, and left.

......

It was the middle of winter, the wind was cold, and it had not yet snowed in Ximen Villa.

The Samurai Contest and the Michimiao Challenge of Ximen Mountain Resort were held in the dojo.

In the center of the huge dojo, a cylindrical ring was temporarily erected, more than one zhang high, and the diameter length was exactly twenty zhang.

On the north and south sides of the ring, there are rows of arc-shaped platforms, arranged in a stepped manner, gradually rising up.

The platform is majestic and can accommodate hundreds of people to watch the fighting at the same time.

On the south deck are seats for Siemens disciples and samurai with foreign surnames, but anyone who has a spare line is present.

The north viewing platform is the seat of the family members of Siemens, and the first and second class people of the villa, and the number of people is more than that of the southern viewing platform, and it is almost full.

Directly east of the ring, there is a high observation platform.

Lu Biao and three monks with foreign surnames, as well as a descendant monk who came to watch the battle, sat on the general platform.

On the south platform, seven Michimiao sat in the highest row, and the top five samurai in Dabi sat in the lowest row.

Gu Xuan, Ximen Fei, Ximen Xiang and Wu Gang sat together, and Ximen Hao, Ximen Qi and Zheng Tai sat together.

I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, the two sides were separated by a seat, which was quite clear.

"Silence!"

As soon as the hour came, as Lu Biao spoke, the entire dojo was silent.

Lu Biao's sharp gaze swept the audience and continued to speak loudly.

"The owner of this village announces that the Dao Miao challenge has officially begun!"
