Chapter 82: The June Retreat
"Ladies and gentlemen, congratulations on your qualification to go to the Imperial City to participate in the Tianlan General Election, this is an honor and a challenge. The seventy-two main cities of the Tianlan Empire, three hundred and sixty small cities, what you will see are the geniuses of the entire empire, to put it bluntly, judging from what I have seen alone, most of you are very weak, too weak to look at directly. ”
"There are still a few months to go, I hope you can all make a breakthrough, and these ten bottles of Resurrection Pill can be regarded as a reward for you. In the early spring of next year, I hope to see you again. Uncle Mu, time is pressing, so we will leave. ”
The three young men in green shirts first explained to Ye Chen's ten people, and then turned to look at Mu Yushan, and a "Uncle Shi" surprised everyone.
"Okay, now that Dabi is over, according to the results of the ranking battle, the mining rights of the lower grade Xuanmai will be handed over to the Ye family in the next ten years. As for the ten of you, follow me to the City Lord's Mansion to collect the reward now. Mu Yushan replied lightly, and then got up and looked at the ten people standing quietly in the ring.
"Yes. ”
As the onlookers slowly dispersed, the results of the big competition quickly spread all over Cangyue City, and after seeing that Ye Chen really won the first place in the big competition, the discussion about him in Cangyue City became more and more hot, from a waste that had not been completed for five years to the first day of Cangyue City, the seventh-grade Xuanzhi and the second-grade Danshi, whether it was Dandao or martial arts, it can be said that Ye Chen has stood at the peak of people of the same age, and this can't help but cause a sigh.
"Introducing the sword record, the eight-grade sword trick of the spirit level. ”
"Xuanyuan Zhang, the seven-rank palm method of the spirit level. ”
......
Ye Chen's ten people slowly walked in the library of the City Lord's Mansion, and there were a variety of different types of exercises, making it really difficult for everyone to choose. Even Ye Chen, who had been here a few times, couldn't decide for a while what kind of exercises he needed.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Chen reached out and picked up two jade cylinders of different colors.
"Cork palm, take the cotton power of wood attributes, fight strong with weak, and the nine-grade palm method of the spirit level. ”
"Huo Yuan Finger, a collection of heaven and earth fire attribute Xuan power condensed in one finger, seven inches of fingers, nothing hurts, spiritual level nine fingering. ”
Because the sword technique already has Xingwu, and the footwork itself also has a seven-star step, Ye Chen decided to choose a melee martial art, pondering for a while, Ye Chen finally put down the cork palm, since the city lord has given himself a spiritual object to assist in cultivating the fire attribute, then this fire attribute fire element finger is undoubtedly more suitable for future battles.
Half an hour passed, except for Mu Yao, the nine people all chose the exercises they wanted, Mu Yushan appeared slowly in a black robe, and then took out three jade bottles and distributed them to Ye Chen and Xue Xingqi.
"The city lord said that day, the top three in the Cangyue Great Competition will have additional rewards, this is the second-grade Qi Induction Pill and the Fire Return Pill, you two take it. ”
Looking at the two bottles of different colors of pills in his hand, Ye Chen put them away with satisfaction, with the help of this pill, he thought that he would make a lot of progress in the next few months. With a respectful salute, everyone turned around and left the City Lord's Mansion.
After returning to Ye's house, Ye Chen and Ye Canglan met and then returned to his and Ye Xi's small courtyard, telling the guards to take care of the courtyard door, Ye Chen pushed open the door of the quiet room in the small courtyard, and then began his first retreat in many years.
Taking out the beads that Mu Yu's shirt handed to him, Ye Chen only felt a faint warmth appear in his palm, and between the urging of Xuanli, a dazzling red light suddenly bloomed on the beads, and a trace of fire appeared, Ye Chen's eyes reflected the flames, and the bottom of his heart gradually flashed with a trace of enlightenment.
Time kept passing, and in the blink of an eye, the Tianlan Empire, a small city close to the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range, had been covered with heavy snow, and the slightest ray of sunlight was thrown into the small courtyard through the gaps in the clouds, Ye Xi, who was dressed in light veil, turned his gaze to the quiet room, it had been a full six months, but Ye Chen still had not left the customs, and today, there was only half a month left before the Dabi of the Tianlan Imperial City.
Helplessly don't turn her head, Ye Xi looked at the willows covered by snow, the girl smiled softly, and then turned around and walked back to the room. Between the agitation of Xuan Li, Ye Xi's aura slowly rose, and an aura that did not belong to Ye Chen before the retreat slowly emanated, Xuan Zhi Seven Grades! Perhaps because of the special physique, Ye Xi actually saw Ye Chen break through the three grades one after another in the six months of Ye Chen's retreat, such a speed is incomparable even to Ye Chen now, after all, Ye Xi has never relied on any adventures.
Several guards whispered outside the courtyard gate, although several months have passed since the Cangyue Dabi, the discussion in Cangyue City has never stopped, and no one has forgotten the young man who easily defeated the enemy with one move after five years of silence. Although Ye Chen did not announce the identity of Ye Chen's young family master, in the hearts of the Ye family today, only Ye Chen can really afford this name and status.
In Cangyue City, the people of several major families maintained a kind of unanimous silence. Between the undercurrents, the Star Hall is constantly developing and growing, with the prestige that Ye Chen has saved, many loose cultivators have joined the family, and the Wang family and the Xiao family have also stopped their actions after sending people to sneak attack the Star Hall several times but were killed by strange counter-killings. The juniors of the major families began to practice hard, as if they wanted to catch up with Ye Chen's pace.
There was a crane cry in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range, and in the quiet room, Ye Chen opened his eyes suddenly. A red light emerged from his eyes, Ye Chen put away the beads in his hand and patted the sleeping green snake beside him.
Pushing open the door of the quiet room, Ye Chen stretched his waist suddenly, and the momentum of the Eight Grades of the Xuan Scholar was undoubtedly revealed. sighed regretfully, although he had the help of the second-grade Qi Inducing Pill and the Fire Returning Pill, because of insufficient accumulation, he was still one line away from the ninth grade of the Xuanzhi.
Glancing at the white snow in the courtyard, Ye Chen pointed at the sword, and a red finger pointed out, only to see the place where the fingertips were going, and the snow melted violently. Smiling with satisfaction, Ye Chen summoned the Blood Yang Sword, a trace of red light lingered on it, and he swung out with a sword, only to see that all the snow in the garden turned into invisible.
Putting away his sword and standing, Ye Chen laughed heartily a few times, and looked at the sky south of Cangyue City, Tianlan Dabi, the wind is dustless, now I should be able to let you fight with all your strength.
"Poof!"
A chuckle came out, Ye Chen looked back, and saw Ye Xi push open the door and step out, unable to stop smiling, but the girl's delicate appearance made Ye Chen very angry.
Turning around and walking into the room, Ye Chen looked at the bronze mirror, and smiled unconsciously. Because of the full six months of retreat, at this time, his face had already crawled with dense stubble, and after a little tidying up, Ye Chen changed into a cyan robe and walked back to the small courtyard again.
"Brother Ye Chen is really powerful, he actually broke through another product. ”
"Haha, Xiaoxi is also good, he actually broke through, broke through-Sanpin!"
Ye Chen's face suddenly became sluggish, because of the latent technique, the Ye Xi he saw when he just went out was only the fifth grade of the mystery, but in the blink of his eyes, Ye Xi's realm actually changed to the seventh grade of the mystery. With a bitter smile, Ye Chen had no choice but to comfort himself that this was because of that special physique.
"By the way, Brother Ye Chen, the city lord has asked someone to inform, because it will take a certain amount of time to rush from Cangyue City to Tianlan Imperial City, so we will set off together tomorrow. If you don't go out, Xiaoxi will forcibly interrupt you. ”
"One day, time should be enough. ”
Walking out of the small courtyard, Ye Chen said hello to the guards at the door, and then turned around and left the Ye family.
"Ye Chen, you're out of the customs. When he came to Dantang, Ye Chen first met Lu Yi, and saw that he was also gray-headed, Ye Chen unconsciously showed a little surprised smile, could it be that Lu Yi was also in retreat.
"Qingyuanzi and they have already left, and they asked me to tell you, goodbye to the imperial city. ”
"Oh, when did they leave?"
"About three months ago, this is some of my thoughts after discussing Dan with him, you can take a look, maybe you will gain something. Lu Yi took out a jade cylinder from the storage ring and handed it to Ye Chen.
"Thank you Lu Yi, senior. "Put away the jade tube, because he has been cultivating martial arts for the past six months, Ye Chen also has to admit that he has fallen behind the progress of the Dan Dao, with the perception of two third-grade Dan masters on Dan, it must also have a lot of benefits for his Dan Dao, as for Qingyuanzi and them, since they said goodbye to the Imperial City, then Tianlan Dabi and his party can also see them if they want to come
After talking a few words again, Ye Chen got up and walked towards the Hall of Stars.
"See the hall master!"
Just walked to the door of the Hall of Stars, Ye Chen was surprised to find that the guards were all unfamiliar faces, and the domineering golden plaque stood on the door, and in the reverent eyes of the warriors, Ye Chen walked into the main hall of deliberations.
Looking at Bai Feng and Qi Yun and the others who were deliberating, Ye Chen's eyes unconsciously flashed with a little joy, and now Bai Feng's body actually had a momentum that he couldn't see through, since he was already close to the peak of the Xuanzhi couldn't see through it, then it could only mean one thing, Bai Feng had broken through, and above the nine grades of the Xuanzhi, he was the Xuanshi.
"Brother Bai Feng, have you broken through?"
"Well, he has already broken through, Pan Zheng is still in retreat, and if he doesn't want to break through to Xuanshi, he will be embarrassed to get out. ”
When Ye Chen entered the hall, Bai Feng saw his figure. Seeing that Ye Chen's body was faintly revealing a terrifying momentum, a smile slowly floated on Bai Feng's face, it seems that his original choice was right, the matter of the Bai family, it seems that there is really a day when it will be resolved.
"See the Lord of the Temple. Qi Yun and the others also saw Ye Chen who slowly walked into the main hall, felt it slightly, and a helpless smile gradually emerged, it has been less than a year since the establishment of the Star Palace, Ye Chen has gone from the original beginner to the current Xuanshi Bapin, Bai Feng has also broken through the Xuanshi, so it seems that Ye Chen's bold words to dominate Cangyue City at the beginning are really possible.
Listening to Qi Yun and the others slowly report the recent situation of the Star Palace, Ye Chen was also surprised by the development of the Star Palace, the current Star Hall has eight hundred people, among which there are more than sixty Xuan people, plus Bai Feng, who has broken through the Xuan Shi, and now the Star Hall can be said to have the strength to compete with the five major families.
Everyone discussed carefully, and Ye Chen didn't leave until late at night, the trip to Tianlan's election will undoubtedly delay some time again, coupled with Mu Yushan's entrustment, the Star Hall can only rely on everyone in the next period of time.
Back at the Ye family, Ye Chen did not walk back to the small courtyard, knocked on the door of the Ye family patriarch's study, and Ye Chen walked in.
"Huh, it's been five years, you're still like this, grandpa, Ye Chen has come to see you. ”
Under the faint starlight, Ye Canglan raised his head lying on the desk and slowly lifted it, a few strands of white hair hung down between his temples, his eyes were a little red, and his hoarse voice sounded.
"Chen'er, grandpa has been waiting for you for a long time. ”
