Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Main City of the Nine Dragons
"That bald donkey of the Heart Sect deceived people too much, not only hurting the king of our country, but also disgraced my Red Moon Empire. On weekdays, one by one, they look like high monks, open their mouths to Amitabha, close their mouths about the suffering of all beings, but what they do is the opposite, I'm whew!" Yue Wuyin said fiercely.
After Mrs. Li heard this, she was silent for a long time and did not mention the matter again.
Yue Wuyin also felt that she had a slight gaffe, and after calming down her emotions, she changed the topic and asked, "How much do you know about Baiyu Xuan?"
Li Taiyi moved his neck, and after finding that his body was no different from usual, he said: "As soon as I am a casual cultivator, where can I have any detailed information, I only know that these hundred domains are selected once every ten years, and the most outstanding people among the young people of the hundred domains of Daozhou will participate, and the major sects will choose Tianjiao to be included in their own sects." β
Yue Wuyin shook her head and said, "This time the Hundred Domains Selection is far from as simple as you think. β
"Do you know that when my generation of Taoist cultivators first entered the Dao Fire Realm, they needed to find a great avenue of fire from between heaven and earth and plant it in the dantian. The quality of the Dao Fire determines the level of the cultivator's cultivation talent. β
"It's just that these superior Dao fires are conceived by heaven and earth, and they are extremely rare in the world. The vast majority of Dao Fire Realm cultivators were just taking an ordinary ball of true fire from the volcanic rock river. β
"But when the hundred domains are selected, the contestants will enter a small world, which is one of the thirty-six cave heavens and the seventy-two blessed lands, and there are countless top-grade Dao fires that have been bred, and the hidden inheritance of chances abounds. β
"However, along with the great opportunity, there are also many dangers hidden in the small world, and if you are not careful, you will die in it. β
"Not only that, it is rumored that in this selection of the hundred domains, there will be a treasure on the market, and the treasure light released by the treasure makes the countless spirit beasts and plants in the small world become violent and angry, which greatly deepens the danger of this selection of the hundred domains. β
"So this time there are many crises in this hundred domain selection, and even I am not sure that I will get out of the way. β
As soon as Mrs. Li saw the solemnity of Yue Wuyin's words, she asked, "The first few times, how many of the monks who participated in the Hundred Domains Selection died among them?"
Yue Wuyin replied solemnly: "Thirty percent, but this time, the number of dead and wounded may be far more than thirty percent." β
Li Taiyi was silent for a while before replying: "I know, I will be more careful this time in the selection of the hundred domains." β
Yue Wuyin nodded and didn't say anything more.
Mrs. Li got up and asked, "Wuyin, do you have some high-grade exercise cheats, can you lend me a few?"
Yue Wuyin was slightly surprised, "The exercises you cultivate are already extremely strong, you don't need to cultivate any more other methods, what do you want to do with this?"
Mrs. Li replied, "Help a friend of mine ask for it." β
Yue Wuyin didn't ask much, took out three exercises from the ring, threw them to Li Taiyi and said, "These are all exercises of the six grades of the mortal rank, I'll give you for the time being." β
Li Taiyi took the exercise and said, "Thank you, I owe you another favor." β
Moon Wuyin shrugged his shoulders indifferently.
He waved his hand to Yue Wuyin and walked out of the Hall of Enlightenment.
When Li Taiyi returned to the room in the guest house, Chu Lingyan was closing her eyes and cultivating.
Hearing the voice of Li Taiyi coming back, Chu Lingyan woke up from her cultivation.
"Xiao Yan," Li Taiyi sat down next to her, took out the three exercises that Yue Wuyin gave him from the ring, and handed them to Chu Lingyan, "You take these three exercises first." β
"Thank you, Brother Taiyi!" Chu Lingyan hurriedly took it over happily.
"Now, Xiao Yan, let me ask you, do you really want to participate in this Hundred Domains Selection?"
Chu Lingyan was stunned for a moment, a little inexplicable why Mrs. Li would ask like this, but seeing his solemn gaze, she replied, "Yes." β
"However, it is extremely risky to participate in the Hundred Domains Election, and it is very likely that you will die. β
Chu Lingyan was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, Brother Taiyi, don't you want to take Xiao Yan there?"
Li Taiyi shook his head and said, "How come, I'm just worried." β
Chu Lingyan breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Li Taiyi say this, and said firmly to him: "Xiao Yan knows that her strength is very unbearable, and she is likely to drag Brother Taiyi back in the Hundred Domains Selection, I'm sorry!"
She stood up, bowed deeply to Li Taiyi, and continued: "However, Xiao Yan really hopes that she can help Brother Taiyi in some aspect in the future, so Xiao Yan will work harder!"
"Please Brother Taiyi bring Xiao Yan into the Hundred Domains Selection, Xiao Yan will find her own opportunity, she will become stronger, and she will no longer rely on Brother Taiyi. As long as Xiao Yan can stay by Brother Taiyi's side, even if she can help Brother Taiyi a little bit, Xiao Yan will be very satisfied!"
Li Taiyi looked at Chu Lingyan, who was gradually agitated, stretched out his hand and touched her little head, and said gently, "Okay." β
Chu Lingyan felt the warmth from Mrs. Li's palm, and gently leaned into Mrs. Li's arms, her eyes gradually moistened......
In the following month, Li Taiyi spent the day in the Hall of Enlightenment to practice and consolidate the realm, from the first order of the Dao Xuan Realm to the second order, and at night he practiced the divine soul and comprehended the "Zhou Yi". But whether it was his Divine Soul Realm or the many Heart Sutra exercises he had cultivated, their progress was slow, as if they had reached a bottleneck.
However, Chu Lingyan's strength improved extremely quickly, not only did she cultivate Yue Wuyin's three mortal-level six-rank exercises to a small level, but even the Qingfeng Blade could split out more than a dozen wind blades in a row, and even Li Taiyi was secretly speechless.
A month later, an envoy from the Nine Dragons Domain, Edgeworth, came to the Red Moon Empire to pick up Li Taiyi and his party to the main city of the Nine Dragons Domain.
The Red Moon Empress gave a detailed advice to the five people who participated in the competition, and handed Yue Wuyin some magic weapons for self-defense.
The five of them followed the envoy into the teleportation array of the Red Moon Empire, which was set up by the formation masters in the Nine Dragons Domain, and its power was far greater than that of the teleportation array from Tianluo City to the Red Moon Empire.
The messenger was about to launch the teleportation array and leave, when Li Taiyi suddenly said, "Senior, wait a minute. β
The envoy raised his eyebrows and said impatiently, "What?"
Li Taiyi pointed his finger at Chu Lingyan, who was not far away, rubbing his hands, and his face was nervous, and said, "This girl wants to go with us and others, please be accommodating to my seniors." β
The senior frowned, and just wanted to stop it, but saw Li Taiyi take out a token from the ring. There were nine small dragons circling around the token on the token, with teeth and claws, which was the token that Li Lao had put in Li Taiyi's ring.
"This is ......" the envoy's eyes widened, "Nine Dragons Domain Lord's Order!"
There are regulations in each domain of Daozhou, and the order of the domain master is like the domain master. He hurriedly said respectfully: "It's rude to be under the previous flag." β
Li Taiyi: "Seniors don't have to be like this, it's just that this girl ......"
"Naturally, it's according to what Childe said. The envoy turned to Chu Lingyan and said, "This girl, please come here." β
Chu Lingyan hurriedly trotted into the teleportation array happily, stood next to Li Taiyi, and saluted the envoy and said, "Thank you, senior." β
The others were a little surprised to see that this envoy was so respectful to Li Taiyi, and Yue Wuyin kicked Li Taiyi angrily and asked in his ear, "Didn't you tell me that you were a loose cultivator?"
Li Taiyi smiled embarrassedly, knowing that he couldn't explain the matter, so he didn't answer Li Taiyi's question.
The messenger waved his hand, and a teleportation array rose from beneath their feet, enveloping them in a cloud of white light. After the white light dissipated, Mrs. Li and the others disappeared.
It seemed that after a long time, Li Taiyi's eyes gradually became clearer, and he looked at it intently, and he was in a huge open-air hall.
After everyone had recovered from the discomfort they felt during the teleportation, the messenger said to Li Taiyi: "Childe, my task is to bring you here, you go straight forward, and soon you will see the Domain Lord's Mansion, where the Domain Lord will wait for many proud sons from all countries to participate in the Hundred Domains Selection. β
Li Taiyi hugged his fists and said, "Thank you seniors." After speaking, he led Yue Wuyin and the five people forward.
The envoy watched Li Taiyi and his party gradually move away, frowned and thought, "There are only six of them in total, and I only have seven people. But why did I consume the spiritual power of eight people when I activated the teleportation array?"
He swept his gaze towards the crowd, and finally stopped at the black-robed monk at the end of the line.
Mrs. Li and the others had not gone far before they saw many fellow monks, walking together in groups of three or five, presumably contestants from other dynasties, all looking at each other carefully.
A magnificent mansion slowly appeared in Mrs. Li's eyes, saying that it was a mansion, but it was actually several times more luxurious and huge than the palace of the Red Moon Empire.
A brown-robed man floated in midair, his unkempt hair and untrimmed beard blocking his sword-like gaze. He casually looked at the monks coming and going below, and said to himself, "Is this the latest class of my little ghost in the Nine Dragons Domain? β
"Well, let's see how many brushes they have. β
As soon as he raised his hand, he set up an invisible prohibition at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.
There was a monk in front of him, who stepped into the gate of the city lord's mansion, and as soon as he took half a step, he felt a huge force pressing on his body, like a mountain on his back, and he was pressed to the ground by that huge force, unable to move.
When the other monks saw this, they all became serious. They understood that this was the first test set for them by the Lord of the Nine Dragons.
More and more people gathered in front of the gate of the city lord's mansion, and from time to time there were monks shouting and trying to step inside the door, but almost all of them were pressed to the ground.
A white-clothed female monk took out a small tripod from the ring and gritted her teeth to sacrifice it. The little ding floated under the pressure of the gate, and the woman in white raised her head to her companion and said, "Don't go quickly!"
Four monks with different postures scrambled towards the inside of the gate, and some of the monks around them saw it and quickly followed.
The woman holding the tripod was squeezed, her hand shook, and the small tripod above her head was crushed into pieces by the huge force and scattered all over the ground.
