Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Sword Test Conference
The sun is three poles up, the whole land exudes a thick heat, the streets are full of traffic, and the crowd is endless.
Tianhe City is worthy of being the first city in the Southern Regions, and its area is so vast that it is almost boundless, and there is no end in sight at a glance. The streets are full of strange people and shops, and there is a lively and prosperous scene everywhere, which will surprise all newcomers from the bottom of their hearts.
Compared with it, Lingjiang City is simply a small place the size of a sesame point, which is not worth mentioning.
"There are so many monks in this city. ”
Ning Yu looked around as he walked, his eyes wandering from place to place, and he often couldn't help but be attracted by some new things on the side of the road.
Walking down this way, he saw countless monks, and he couldn't count them at all, the so-called strong people in the foundation building period were just ordinary existences in this Tianhe City, although they were not spread all over the ground like cabbage on the side of the road, but they were often seen on the road, and no one cared at all.
As for the cultivators of the Qi Refining Realm, they can be seen everywhere, and as long as they are individuals on the road, they have some cultivation to some extent.
"As the head of the seventy-six cities in the Southern Regions, Tianhe City has extraordinary strength, and naturally it is not comparable to other cities. ”
Master Huihai has traveled to many places and has seen a wide range of things, so it is not surprising that he is not surprised.
"Master, wait a minute. ”
A hint of surprise flashed in Ning Yu's cyan pupils, as if he had seen some strange treasure, he grabbed the thin old monk beside him, and turned around and walked towards a stall next to him.
The street is so bustling that even in such a scorching heat, the entire road is crowded with people.
The street is lined with stalls all the way from the street to the end of the street, and this scene is truly spectacular to the countryman.
The stall that Ning Yu noticed was extremely simple, and the whole thing was a black curtain spread out on the ground, which was full of pills, books, weapons, and all kinds of things, dazzling. The stall owner was a man who looked to be nearly forty years old, with a stubble on his face and a sleepy-eyed look, and he sat directly on the floor at the back of the stall, which was simple and simple.
Ning Yu picked up a pitch-black dagger, his eyes were slightly condensed, and he looked up and down carefully, and couldn't help but feel a little shocked. I saw that the aura around the pitch-black dagger was swirling, the side was smooth as a mirror, and from time to time it exuded a palpitating cold aura, no matter compared to Zhong Yihan's Zimo Knife or Nangong Yuchen's Red Gold Gun, it was not bad at all!
Even Ning Yu couldn't believe it for a while, this dagger was actually a human-level magic weapon!
The fact that a treasure of this level actually appeared on the stall in Tianhe City is really smacking when you think about it.
"Shop, how do you sell this dagger?"
Ning Yu looked at the man sitting cross-legged behind the stall and asked out loud.
Hearing this, the man turned his attention to the pitch-black dagger in his hand, and gestured: "Sixty thousand taels, or exchange it for other treasures of the same value." ”
Knowing that this magic weapon was worth a lot of money, Ning Yu had actually been mentally prepared for a long time, but after really hearing the price, Ning Yu's eyes still widened, and he couldn't help but gasp.
Seeing his expression, the man's face also showed a wry smile, and he shook his head helplessly.
"Since the little brother can see that this magic weapon is different from other mortal things, he must be a person who knows goods. ”
He smiled, and then said, "I am not satisfied with you either, this black shadow blade is made of the unique Xuanyin stone of Tongjiang Cliff, and it is extremely powerful. Back then, I also worked hard and almost lost my life to get it, and the price couldn't be lower. ”
For what he said, Ning Yu also nodded, unable to deny it.
Any human-level magic weapon is not an ordinary thing, refining requires a lot of precious materials, and the process is quite cumbersome, such a price is actually quite fair.
"Seeing that the little brother is so young, I think I want to go to the sword test conference, right?" the man asked with a slight smile.
During this time, the vast majority of the young generation in Tianhe City are participating in this grand event, hoping to take this opportunity to emerge and become famous in one fell swoop.
In his opinion, the teenager in front of him should be no exception.
"Sword test conference, what is that?" Ning Yu asked out loud when he heard this.
"You're ...... I don't know about the sword trial?"
The man who set up the stall showed a look of disbelief, stared at the young man in front of him, and said in disbelief: "This is a peerless event that has gathered nearly half of the talents in the entire Southern Regions, attracting many young talents from all over the world, and many famous young demons have already arrived. ”
Hearing this, Ning Yu couldn't help but show an embarrassed expression.
"And this?"
He followed Master Huihai to come here after stepping through thousands of rivers and mountains, in fact, he just wanted to increase his knowledge, and as for the sword trial conference, he was indeed unheard of.
The main reason for this is because Lingjiang City is too far away from here, a full 80,000 miles away!
There are countless mountains in between, and if there are no special means, and only rely on people's word of mouth, the news will not spread at all.
"Isn't it? ”
Seeing Ning Yu's blank face, the stall owner couldn't help but continue to explain: "I heard that this time, in addition to those peerless wizards who came from all over the world, even the demon Su Yueyu of the Su family will participate in it, and you can imagine how tragic the battle of this sword trial conference will be." ”
Even Su Yueyu, who is known as the first person in the younger generation of the Su family, participated, which shows that the gold content of this sword trial conference is indeed extraordinary.
Ning Yu touched his head and sneered embarrassedly: "We are located in a remote area, and we have just arrived today, so we don't know much about the things in the city. ”
"I see. ”
The stall owner nodded, he also wondered, such an unprecedented event as the sword trial conference, the city has long been in an uproar, how can anyone not know? But if the two of them came from some remote places, then it is possible not to understand.
He looked the young man in front of him up and down carefully, and then said: "I think the little brother has such a vicious eye, and he shouldn't be a mortal ......."
Ning Yu's usual aura is all restrained, except for some people with extremely high cultivation, it is difficult for ordinary people to see the depth of his strength, and the man who set up the stall also saw that he could recognize this magic weapon, so he thought that his cultivation was good.
"It's just that if you want to participate in this sword test conference, I'm afraid you'll have to suffer a lot of losses. The stall owner shook his head and said.
Hearing this, Ning Yu couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and was a little confused by his sudden words.
"What do you mean by that?"
"In this sword trial conference, the upper age limit is twenty years old, little brother, you are so young, you are undoubtedly at a great disadvantage in this. ”
The stall owner looked at the young man in front of him, and his face couldn't help but show a slightly regretful look, and said with some regret.
Although Ning Yu is confident, he is not arrogant, unlike some fledgling calves, who are not afraid of heaven and earth, and think that he is alone in the world and invincible.
How many pounds and taels he has, he still has a number in his heart, and he wants to compete with some people who are nearly five years older than him, no matter how big his nerves are, his heart is a little heavy at the moment, and he feels a burst of pressure.
After all, the young people who dare to come all the way to Tianhe City to attend the meeting are naturally good at cultivation, and they must all be first-class masters.
Ning Yu scratched his head and laughed a few times, and said, "Uncle said he was joking, in fact, I just came to see and open my eyes." With my kung fu of these three-legged cats, where can I compare with the Tianjiao in those big forces?"
Those who know others are wise, and those who know themselves are clear.
Born with a pure heart, coupled with the influence of his grandfather's and grandmother's thoughts and concepts since he was a child, although Ning Yu has a little less arrogance and momentum that a young person should have, he also has more calmness and indifference that does not match his age.
"It's naturally best for the little brother to think like this. ”
The stall owner nodded slightly, and couldn't help but start to envy the young man's calm mentality.
Dare to move forward, that is a rare courage. It may not be possible to be ambitious, but it also requires a big mind and boldness.
He had a lot of experience, so he could naturally see that Ning Yu was not pretending to be modest, but thinking so from the bottom of his heart.
In the atmosphere where all the young generations in the Southern Regions are eager to chase fame and fortune, he was really surprised to be able to do such an indifferent treatment.
The stall owner is also a temperamental person, and he chats with people speculatively, so he will say a few more words, and it will not hinder business, after all, the big guys come to Tianhe City, in fact, they are all coming to join in the fun, and how many people really want to do business?
"The pre-selection for the sword trial competition is set in the center of Tianhe City, and if the two of you want to go over, I'm afraid you will have to walk for a few hours. ”
The stall owner stretched out his hand and waved his finger behind him, he had been here for a while, and he naturally knew some of the lively events in the city well.
"It's been seven days since the start of this preliminaries, and every day is full of ups and downs, and talents from all walks of life are coming out one after another, so it's not lively!"
Hearing this, Ning Yu was slightly surprised in his heart, obviously he didn't expect that there would be a so-called qualifier in this sword trial conference.
But think about it, such a grand event, if all the heroes of the Southern Regions compete on the same stage and understand it in one go, it is difficult to distinguish between the superior and unrealistic.
Speaking of this, a look of excitement also appeared on the stall owner's face, and then said: "I went to watch that day, I don't know what kind of luck I had, but I happened to see a disciple from Tongtian Mountain!"
The scene of that day is still unforgettable to this day, and it feels vivid, as if it was just yesterday.
"In front of the blue-clothed young man, even those wizards who have entered the foundation building period can only be reduced to foils, they are not his generals at all, and their cultivation is so strong that it is incredible!"
As soon as these words came out, Ning Yu's face couldn't help but show disbelief, and he couldn't help but ask, "Is it so strong?"
Although he had never underestimated the gold content of this sword trial conference, it seemed that the overestimation he had always thought was obviously too low.
At this age, who can enter the foundation building period and achieve the position of a spiritual master, which one is not a dragon and phoenix among people?
But such an existence is not qualified to be that person's enemy!
The stall owner shook his head and couldn't help but say abruptly: "There are talented people in the country, and such a peerless genius that is rare to see in a hundred years really makes my generation ashamed." ”
