The Panlong Banquet is not the highest pavilion outside the Jiang Palace, but it is the most luxuriously decorated, with a total of five floors, each floor is like a palace, even compared with the Taiqing nine-story building, it is not inferior, and even more atmospheric.

The first thing the young monks need to do is to climb the stairs.

Starting from the lobby on the first floor, climb the second floor, each floor is guarded by monks of the corresponding realm, and only by defeating these guards can you continue to climb higher floors.

There are no guards on the first floor, and from the second floor, they will have to face the obstruction of hundreds of Chengyi Upper Realm monks, and the third floor will face the guards of the peak cultivation of Chengyi Realm, and the number of guards will be halved, and the fourth floor will face the Great Monk who has crossed the threshold of the Four Realms, but there is only one.

The highest five floors are the place where the feasts are held, and the ultimate goal of the monks who ascend the towers.

Stepping through the long steps outside the building and crossing the threshold, the four walls of the hall were covered with flags, with different markings on them, which were the seats belonging to the various cultivation mountain gates.

Pear Blossom Academy, Star Picking Mansion, Ligong Sword Academy, occupy the best position, Pujia Garden, Buluo Mountain, Bailu Peak, Cangnan Mountain, Tianhu Daofu and other five or four realms sects are scattered and ranked, hundreds, just like the vast stars in Jiang Kingdom, solemn and solemn, very shocking.

In the five-story building, the heads of the court and many officials and the teachers in the cultivation mountain gate who went to the banquet were all seated, and the fugue mind covered the entire building, watching the situation in the hall on the first floor.

Sitting in the first place was not Xu Hexian, Yue Shiting and other heads of departments, nor those teachers who practiced the mountain gate, but an old woman who was dressed ordinarily and had a kind face.

It's just because she's Pingpo and she's from the academy.

As a Confucian orthodox academy, it is also the state religion of Jiang Guo, even if it is an ordinary disciple, the status is also transcendent, as long as you enter the academy, you can be at the same level as other true disciples who practice the mountain gate, then those people in the academy who are more noble, even if they are big people in the court, must be polite.

And in the capital, only a few people can really know the identity of Pingpo, so even if it is Xu Hexian, in front of this old woman, he does not dare to make a mistake.

Ping Po didn't seem to be very interested in the things at the Panlong Banquet, she was a little sleepy when she was older, and the people around her didn't dare to disturb, even if she was talking, she deliberately lowered her voice.

In the lobby on the first floor, Shen Qiubai, Ning Haoran, Xie Chunfeng and other representatives of the mountain gates played the role of referees, explaining the rules to those young monks.

Shen Qiubai looked at those young monks with a look in his eyes and was not proud, but he was a proud existence himself, but he was a person who was difficult to hate, and those who secretly slandered him could only hide in the dark, not daring to stand in the light, after all, it was just because of jealousy.

His voice was very soft, and the lobby on the first floor and even outside the building was full of people, but his voice could be heard very clearly by those present.

"The general rule is like this, the higher the guards on each floor, the number of people will be relatively reduced, but their cultivation realm will also become stronger and stronger. ”

"Many of them are from the military department, all of them have rich combat experience, and they have crawled out of the sea of corpses and blood, and there are also many mountain monks who are supported by the court, and they all have the skills to be proud of. ”

"They have the belief that their only purpose is to keep you on their own level, and they will not kill you in the process of going up the stairs to fight, and neither will you. ”

"And there is a formation enchantment on every floor, and the monks above the peak of the four realms can't break it, if there is a weak vitality, the formation enchantment will have a sense and can teleport you out in time, so the safety can still be guaranteed. ”

Shen Qiubai looked at the young monks who were listening carefully, and continued: "If you really can't break through the guards and climb to a higher floor, there is another potential rule here, that is, you can challenge each other, and you can only challenge people who are in the same realm as yourself, or stronger, as long as you defeat the opponent, you can directly jump over the guards and climb to a higher floor. ”

"But this kind of opportunity is only once, and you can't use it again in the future, so you'd better think about it a little more, after all, the higher floors, there are stronger guards, and it would be a waste to challenge too early. ”

Shen Qiubai paused for a moment and said with a smile: "Between the different realms of cultivation, it is very difficult to climb the fourth floor to face the guards who cross the threshold of the four realms, so those who have cultivated below the four realms, as long as they can climb the fourth floor, they do not need to continue climbing, and they are considered qualified to participate in the banquet on the fifth floor." ”

After the words fell, the young monks present had different thoughts.

Shen Qiubai observed the change in the expressions of each of them.

Although it is very simple to think about the rules, after all, these practitioners are all living people, and there will be all kinds of accidents in the process, and the idea of obeying the rules or breaking the rules is just that one thought that comes to mind in an instant.

It seems to be much easier to avoid the floor guards, challenge other monks, and ascend the stairs after winning, but if there is only one chance, then in the early process of ascending the stairs, no one will want to waste this opportunity unless it is the end of the road.

And if there is no way, using the opportunity to challenge the building, it is equivalent to stopping there, and the elimination rate can be described as amazingly terrifying.

And there may also be a situation where before you have time to ask for a challenge, you will be directly teleported out by the array enchantment.

So the best opportunity is when you climb four floors.

The Array Enchantment is a very profound technique, and it is impossible to be opportunistic in this regard.

In the past years, there was indeed a faction of formation magicians in the world, and now although it is very rare, there are traces to follow, and basically, all the great monks who have crossed the five realms have the ability to create an enchantment similar to the formation, which has many functions, all of which come from the control of the aura of heaven and earth, forming their own small world.

The formation magician was originally a very terrifying existence, especially the formation magician who crossed the Four Realms, as long as he was given enough time, even if it was only the first stage of entering the Four Realms, under his formation technique, there was a great chance that he would directly trap and kill the powerhouses at the peak of the Four Realms.

It is precisely because it takes time to perform the formation technique, and the formation technique is too terrifying, and the lethality of the formation is too terrifying, the existence of the formation magician has been suppressed, and it has also died out in the long river of history, just like the sword gate.

The Sword Gate is more fortunate that a sword immortal has reappeared, so he can still occupy a place in this world, while the array magicians are not so lucky, even if some formation magicians still exist in the world, there has never been a powerful formation magician who has stepped into the Five Realms, let alone penetrated the Five Realms.

Therefore, these array magicians are basically supported by the major dynasties, and their only role is to guard the capital, or let these formation magicians assist the disciples of the mountain gate to practice when the court needs them.

In today's human world, the strongest array magicians are only the great cultivators who can barely trap the five realms, but they don't have the ability to kill them, and most of the formation magicians are only at the stage of the four realms, or even weaker.

And the strongest formation master, named Night Star, is in Nanyu, and his formation talent is outstanding, if he hadn't been born in a good era, he would definitely be a stunning and peerless formation powerhouse.

Even in the mountains and rivers where the array magicians are gone, the night star is also the first person who deserves to be the formation magician.

Due to the scarcity of array magicians, slightly more powerful dynasties only have one or two Four Realm Array Magicians at most, and more small countries, even the traces of formation magicians are not visible.

Jiang Guo's only Four Realms Array Magician was an old man named Cao Rushan, who was only a high-grade cultivator in the Four Realms, but in the case of the completion of his formation technique, even if he was a great cultivator at the peak of the Four Realms, it would be difficult to escape death, and he could even threaten the existence of the First Five Realms.

If it weren't for the fact that it would take some time to perform the formation technique, and it was not suitable for the battle that met on a narrow road, Cao Rushan would definitely be the strongest person under the threshold of the Five Realms.

But Rao is like this, because Cao Rushan is in the court of Jiang State, and there are formations arranged by him everywhere in the capital, as long as he does not go out of the capital, no one can help him if he does not come out of the five realms, even Xu Hexian, who is recognized as the strongest in the four realms in Jiang State, has to temporarily avoid the edge.

In the case that the only remaining array magicians are controlled by various dynasties, then there is no need to worry more, on the contrary, they also try their best to cultivate formation magicians, but the number of cultivation is limited, after all, if there are thousands of Four Realms array magicians appear, then the formation technique laid out by the joint force, even if it cannot overthrow a dynasty, it is also a great hidden danger.

Cao Rushan also practiced in the academy, collecting collections about array techniques, cultivating successors, and if he wanted to strengthen the array masters in this era, the possibility was very small, and what could be done was to prevent the formation masters from completely disappearing in the world.

Arranging the formation technique requires the assistance of heaven and earth aura and even telekinesis, so it is also very important to improve one's cultivation realm.

Even if you have a profound knowledge of array techniques, if the realm can't keep up, it will be difficult to show it, and if you can't arrange it, you don't have the ability to kill the enemy.

It is very difficult to find an apprentice who has a strong interest in the formation of martial arts and has a high level of cultivation qualifications.

Cao Rushan's age is not young, if he can't find his successor in his lifetime, in addition to Cao Rushan's ability not being inherited, Jiang Guo will also lose the power of the formation master to protect the capital.

Cao Rushan was the one who arranged the formation techniques on each floor of the Panlong Banquet, and his potential purpose was also to find a satisfactory apprentice from among these monks of the younger generation in Jiang Country.

He was in a place that no one could see, silently watching those energetic young people.

And those young cultivators also began to prepare to ascend the tower.

......

Ni Zhenchun found He Zhengrong, who was followed by Tao Ye and Fang Changsheng, who was missing one ear.

This ear was cut off by He Zhengrong.

Therefore, Fang Changsheng's eyes were very resentful.

He Zhengrong completely ignored his eyes, and just looked at Ni Zhenchun silently.

Ni Zhenchun smiled and said: "I originally wanted to give you an unforgettable lesson at the Panlong Banquet, but now it seems that you may be eliminated early, I have already thought about it, it is not difficult to climb the stairs with my strength, but you may not, so I will choose a suitable opportunity and personally eliminate you." ”

He Zhengrong said calmly: "Then I hope you will be early as soon as possible, otherwise if you are eliminated by the guards below three floors, you will have no chance to challenge me." ”

His voice was not hurried, very indifferent, but it was a very powerful response.
