"There's something!" Xixiao was ecstatic when the three-color beam shone on the page.

I saw a golden figure printed on the right side of the second page, and as the beam came, the standing figure began to move, and at the same time, a snake-like creature that was also golden began to flash on the left side of the page, opening its fangs and volleying at the villain.

The villain sacrificed his scimitar, leaned back and dodged the attack of the long snake, and the scimitar swept upwards to cut off the snake-like creature.

Then the villain put away the scimitar, sat cross-legged, and kept sealing in his hand, and after a breath, a black spot lit up at the divine sense, and suddenly shot out a black line, which shot out of the body through the center of the eyebrows, and shot to the heavenly spirit cave above the head of the serpentine creature.

As the speed of the golden villain's seal continued to accelerate, the dying little snake Heavenly Spirit Cave began to escape from the Dao Dao black qi, and continued to enter the golden villain's divine consciousness along the black line.

After a minute, the screen begins to fall apart, returning to the original scene, with the golden figure flashing, standing on the right side of the page, and the snake flashing and attacking...

"The art of absorbing souls?" Xi Xiao couldn't hide the ecstasy in his heart, and his expression became extremely excited, "Isn't this the secret technique of soul refining that makes all the people of the West Sea crazy!"

"Let's call this soul collection technique first. After calming down his excitement, Xi Xiao began to observe the animation repeatedly, focusing all his attention on the golden villain's seal gesture, recording and rubbing them one by one in his mind.

Time passed quietly, and when Xixiao rubbed to the forty-sixth seal, a panicked cry sounded.

"Ahh

Xi Xiao's mind was disturbed, and the three-colored pupils dissipated on their own.

At a side glance, a middle-aged brocade-clothed man with a fat head and big ears stood five zhang away, covering his mouth, with a look of fear on his face.

"What do you see?" said Xi Xiao, with a chilling face, and walked leisurely towards the man.

"Your eyes .." When the man said this, he saw the essence ejaculated from Xi Xiao's eyes, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "It's nothing.. It's nothing.. I didn't see anything.."

"Shallow Sea Sixfold Realm, your cultivation speed is really slow!" Xi Xiao's voice became even colder.

The middle-aged man saw Xi Xiao of the Deep Sea Eightfold Realm coming towards him, and an invisible coercion instantly permeated, and his heart was even more shocked, trembling all over, and said tremblingly: "Ruling the sky... Longitudinal.. Wizard.. Yongguan III: Army.. Formerly lowly posted: Dog Eyes on People... Low, no.. Recognize well.. Oh, also.. Wangtong.. Collar... Give me.. One.. Redeem.. Crime.. Chances, I would like. Meaning.."

Before he could finish speaking, he heard a pop, and the man knelt down.

"You don't deserve to hold a grudge against me. Xi Xiao was unmoved, his eyes were still extremely cold, "It's just today's matter, I hope that except for you and me, don't let a third person know!"

"The lowly office understands. Humble duty understands.." The middle-aged man leaned over and said more than ten times in a row, but he couldn't hear any response from Xi Xiao, so he mustered up the courage to look up and saw that the opposite side had long since disappeared.

"Whew.." The man sat on the ground, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and gasped for air.

"It's unfortunate to meet this evil star here!" the middle-aged man whispered, before he blurted out, and suddenly looked back in shock, and saw that there was no one behind him, and breathed a long sigh of relief, and a look of resentment flashed in his expression.

Before the end of the palace test, he would definitely not be able to leave the Dragon Palace, and after knowing that he could see the content that others could not see in the "Spiritual Awareness Technique", Xi Xiao became not in a hurry, and planned to return to the courtyard to close his eyes and breathe, and consolidate his eightfold realm.

When I returned to the bedroom, I smelled a strange fragrance, Xi Xiao followed the fragrance and looked, and there was a delicate hollow small copper tripod in the farthest corner of the northeast, in which the blue smoke floated out.

"This is?" Just as Xi Xiao was puzzled, the old butler walked in quickly.

"Prince, I heard that you are going to take the palace test in a few days, so I specially found some Yuan Qingmu and ground it into powder, which has the effect of refreshing and calming the mind. The old butler bowed and threw himself very low.

"Old butler, you're bothered. Xi Xiao stepped forward to help him up, sent him outside the door, told him to pay more attention to rest, and then closed the door to thank the guests and began to breathe cross-legged.

On July 10, the 166th year of the Four Seas Thousand Ages, the Xihai Palace test officially began, and the time was approaching, and Xixiao came to the gate of the Formation Pavilion.

The formation pavilion covers an area of 56 acres, and all the courtyards of the hanging mountains are all magic weapons of space, which are arranged in the form of gossip, and the whole body is silver and white, which makes people feel a sense of holiness.

The wide and tall pavilion door was open, and in front of the door stood two young men in white robes, who were not high in cultivation, but had just entered the realm of the deep sea, but they were heroic and full of spirit, and they were enthusiastically greeting everyone who came.

The most striking thing is the position of the left chest of the two people, embroidered with gold thread with an inch-wide "array" character.

"Please come in, there is a special person inside. Each time he came, two young men took turns to greet him into the door, and then the soldiers standing behind the door led him towards the courtyard.

Seeing Xi Xiao walk to the door a zhang away, the young man standing on the left side of the door greeted him, skimmed Xi Xiao's waist card, and then looked at Xi Xiao's cultivation, and finally looked at his appearance, a touch of amazement flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly stepped forward.

"Commander-in-chief, please come with me. Guiding Xi Xiao to the door, the young man said to the first standing heavy armored manatee soldier on the left, "Advanced group." ”

The manatee soldier bowed his head, walked out of the queue, and looked at Xi Xiao, "Please come with me, my lord." ”

Xi Xiao nodded slightly, and followed the manatee soldiers towards the courtyard. The vacant position of the manatee soldier was filled by the soldier behind him.

After entering the third courtyard, the soldiers led Xi Xiao to the left side door, and then turned left and right through several corridors to come to a huge white gatekeeper.

The white fog around the access control was shrouded, and the width and height of the access control could not be seen clearly, and the access control place facing the soldiers and Xi Xiao avoided one after another, revealing a transparent and reflective square door, which refracted the two people's figures clearly.

The two walked to the square door, only to see the soldier sacrifice a white square jade seal, carved with a head high, and the bottom of the seal engraved with complicated runes.

The soldier aimed the bottom of the seal at the small door, mobilized the blue essence in his body to infuse the jade seal, and shouted in his mouth:

"Grid Palace Array, get up!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw the transparent door flash yellow in an instant.

"Your Excellency, please. The soldier spoke.

Xi Xiao understood, bowed his head slightly, his body moved, and he entered the door without hindrance.

As soon as he entered the door, Xi Xiao only felt that there was a flower in front of him, and the entire space was extremely disordered, as if he had entered the turbulence of space.

A huge force slowly came from the soles of his feet, like a towering hand, dragging Xi Xiao steadily and slowly lifting him up.

After a minute, the big hand began to move to the left, and after translating a distance of more than 30 zhang, it turned forward and sent Xi Xiao out of the spatial turbulence.

"What is this?" Xi Xiao shook his head a little dizzy, and found himself in a square box that was more than a foot long, except for the wall in front of him that was clear and transparent, and the huge arena below could be vaguely seen, the walls around him were gray.

Xi Xiao looked back, the road he came from had been blocked tightly, turned around and touched it with both palms, and felt that the wall was extremely heavy,

With a low shout, Xi Xiao's palms burst out with a hundred jun gravity, but the wall stood still.

"If you want to strangle me, I'm afraid it will be easy." Experiencing the subtlety of the best formation, Xi Xiao was quite shocked in his heart.

Coming to the transparent wall, Xi Xiao carefully studied the scene outside.

The whole arena is arranged in a circle of more than 200 zhang, the ground is paved with white jade, with a faint white light, the gray wall is about 100 zhang high, the top is slightly curved and arc-shaped, and the black clouds on it are rolling.

At a glance, Xi Xiao already knew the general situation, so the participating students, like himself, were separated by the walls of the arena in small rooms, from the inside of the room you can clearly see the arena outside, and from the outside, you can't see the people in the room at all.

"It's easy to do that." Xi Xiao praised.

Half an hour later, a vigorous voice sounded in the room.

"All the young talents who have seen the palace examination, welcome to the Formation Pavilion. The old decay is the head of the formation, and he has the favor of the Dragon King, and he is the host of this palace test. ”

"Let me first introduce you to this formation and the rules of the palace test..."

It turns out that this grid palace array is indeed the best formation, it is the best lower-level space formation, which took a hundred years to build by the first statue, and according to the needs of this palace test, it has been transformed accordingly.

The wall is 99 zhang high, 50 zhang above the ground, which is the room of the junior group of students, 50 zhang to 80 zhang, which is the room of the intermediate group, and 80 zhang to the top of the wall, which is the room of the senior group.

The three groups competed at the same time, and the order of appearance was determined by "jumping lights".

The so-called "jumping light" means that the person who participates in the door will randomly flash yellow all over, and then quickly flash and jump, and finally freeze in front of the door, this person is the person who appears in the competition.

Each participant who enters the competitive platform, the wrist Yang Chi acupoint will be marked with a formation mark, called "Hui Formation", during the game, if you admit defeat, you only need to urge the essence to stimulate the mark, and you will be directly moved back to the room by the Gegong Array.

Of course, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties, the Shouzun will also intervene in the game if necessary according to the battle situation of both sides, and make a decision on the winner in advance.

The first round of the competition is over, and the second round of the temple examination is held three months later.

"I announce that the first round of the palace examination has officially begun!"
