Xia Yuan seized the flaws of the puppet and attacked one after another. After a few rounds, it was indeed very traumatic to the puppet. But even so, it was still impossible to win. No way, there is still a difference between a puppet and a real person, as Nihuang's soul thought said, unless it is completely destroyed, the puppet will still attack.

At the beginning, Zhong Haoxuan was stuck on the seventh layer because he couldn't kill his biological mother. There's no way, although it's just a doll that looks the same as his mother, but after all, there is a trace of soul. As a son, Zhong Haoxuan didn't dare to make a mistake no matter how bold he was.

If he really hit the sixth layer, his mother would naturally not blame, but would feel gratified. However, Zhong Guoli, as his father, guaranteed to reward him with a set of big-eared scrapers. Even, in a more serious case, you may be evicted from the house. If nothing else, just kill his mother, even if it is not too much to kill him.

Some people may think that this is very unfair to Zhong Haoxuan, but if you analyze it carefully, Zhong Haoxuan's swordsmanship mainly comes from the teaching of his parents. And as a parent, it is naturally impossible to hide.

In this way, the latter obviously has an advantage over the former, not to mention that it is still an early Nihuang. Therefore, Zhong Haoxuan has nothing to complain about, but should feel lucky. At the very least, the parents of the Eight Rank Pure Sword Immortal were the only ones in the ancestral star at that time.

Having said that, seeing that the time was approaching, Xia Yuan still hadn't completely destroyed the puppet. In desperation, Xia Yuan had to compromise again. That is, let go of the body and mind and become one with the Shadow Lin Sword.

It should be noted that although the Qinglong Xuan Coffin will not die, its memory will be preserved. Therefore, Xia Yuan's acceptance of the Shadow Lin Sword will inevitably have a great impact on her. Even if it is not obvious at this stage, as her cultivation continues to improve, the impact will gradually appear.

This is similar to Lin Man'er and the Death Sword, when its cultivation is raised to a certain level, the Sword Spirit Soul Release will replace the Samurai Soul. In the same way, at the right time, Soul Eater will replace Soul Release.

The reason why this is so, on the one hand, is because the soul eater is too strong, if it doesn't like it, it is estimated that it will kill the master on the spot, anyway, it has already done this. On the other hand, the mourning sword needs a certain amount of cultivation to support, otherwise the sword master will be squeezed dry prematurely. This has happened before.

In comparison, the Shadow Lin Sword was better, although it devoured the Lord much more times than the Demon Sword, but that was because the overall quality of its owner was not good. To put it mildly, it just can't stand the transpiration, so I hung up without much fun.

However, although the four fierce swords will devour the master, the combat power provided by the master should not be underestimated. In other words, if you want to increase your combat power in the short term, you must pay a corresponding price, which is called borrowing and repaying.

In order to win, Xia Yuan obviously borrowed a lot. The upside, of course, is that she can now completely destroy the Nihuang puppet. At that moment, the familiar action was released again, but this time it was three thousand sword shadows, but it was instantly increased to six thousand, which doubled.

It should be noted that the number of sword shadows is not linked to the grade. In other words, the average sixth-grade disciple of the Sword Sect can send about one thousand to two thousand. If it is a six-rank elder, as he grows older, the accumulation of true qi can give rise to two thousand to five thousand sword shadows.

As for the Six Thousand Sword Shadows, that was the ideal situation for the Sixth Form of the Absolute Sword, or it could also be considered the ultimate state. Even, some seventh-rank elders may not be able to reach six thousand sword shadows.

By the way, Sword Sect Sect Master Jian Nantian can reach about five thousand six or seven before breaking through to the seventh rank. This is already the best result of the Sword Sect in the past 10,000 years. At the same time, it also laid the foundation for him to ascend to the position of suzerain.

Speaking of Xia Yuan, she was only a thousand years old and could reach three thousand sword shadows without the help of the Shadow Lin Sword and the Sword Domain. If it opens the realm of the sword, it can reach about four thousand. If you add the impetus of the Shadow Lin Sword, it can reach about five thousand.

But now, in order to win, Xia Yuan has been promoted to six thousand sword shadows. This is not a simple addition and subtraction, but a kick in front of the seven products. Based on this, Xia Yuan is very likely to have a big breakthrough within three thousand years and become the youngest seventh-grade pure sword immortal known to the ancestral star.

In the end, the competition ended, and Xia Yuan's challenge was successful. When she returned to the Blue Dragon Tower, her physical condition was obviously not normal. Lin Man'er, as a person who has come over, naturally understands what it represents. At that moment, he kindly reminded: "Your situation is very bad, so you don't need to challenge it next." ”

Xia Yuan said helplessly: "Do you think I am willing to invite evil?" It's not like you're forcing it. ”

After Lin Man'er was silent for a while, he asked with a serious face, "Why do you have to compete with me for the Zichuan Sword?" ”

Xia Yuan smiled bitterly: "Shouldn't I ask you this?" ”

"I want to exchange the Zichuan Sword for any of the Twenty Swords of the Zodiac, so as to open the Xuankong Sword Shrine, you should be able to think of this."

Xia Yuan's mind moved, and he flickered: "Since this is the case, then you can completely hand over the Zichuan Sword to me." When the time comes, I can try to change the Hanlu Sword for you. ”

Lin Man'er shook his head again and again and said, "This can't be done, I only believe in what I have." ”

"Hmph, what are you talking nonsense about? Go for the challenge! ”

Lin Man'er responded, and before leaving, he suddenly remembered something, turned around and said, "Don't force it in the next game." "Let's go into the Blue Dragon Coffin and challenge the puppet Nihuang.

Xia Yuan was stunned in place, and Lin Man'er's sentence "Don't be reluctant" echoed in her mind. A little, a smile crossed the corner of Xia Yuan's mouth, and he said in pieces: "Men, they are all virtuous." ”

Interestingly, as soon as she finished speaking, she saw a female voice come out: "That's true! ”

Xia Yuan heard the sound and saw that it was Bao Jinjiao. At that moment, he looked puzzled: "Why did you come up too?" ”

Bao Jinjiao was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically, "Can't I come up?" ”

"You're the champion of the seventh layer, but this is the sixth layer!"

Bao Jinjiao replied and explained, "According to the rules of the Blue Dragon Tower, I can come to the sixth layer to challenge. After a pause, he said mysteriously, "Let me tell you a secret, except for the top floor, I have never been to the other floors." ”

Xia Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a smile: "What kind of big people are the upper layers?" ”

Bao Jinjiao replied truthfully: "You already know the sixth layer, it is my Donghao Qinglong Female Guard, the Great Commander - Nihuang. As for the fifth layer, it is the commander of my Donghao Qinglong Internal Guard-Zhong Guoli. The fourth layer told you before that the Wine Sword Immortal, one of the four great sword immortals. ”

"The first three floors?"

"The first three layers were originally my Donghao's old-timers, and it was difficult to defeat them. However, a few years ago, General Qinglongwei successfully hit the third layer and left his name permanently. So, my father's offer of a reward was tempting, but it was only tempting. ”

Xia Yuan thought for a while, and then asked, "What kind of cultivation did General Zhong use to fight?" ”

"Eight Rank Pure Gun Immortal."

"So, the first two floors are all nine grades?"

"Yes, there is more than one on the first two floors, and the nearest one is the former dean of our hospital."

Xia Yuan looked puzzled and said, "It is rumored that General Qinglong Wei Zhong is the only nine-rank pure spear immortal known to my ancestral star, why didn't he reach the top?" ”

"That's because the ranking of the Blue Dragon Tower is only limited to the period of being in the academy, and if you leave the academy, you can't challenge it again. General Zhong had gone to Wushan to defend against the enemy very early, so his ranking only stayed at the third level. ”

"So the Wine Sword Immortal is too?"

"Yes, but not all."

"What do you mean?"

This means that in addition to strength, there are other factors to consider. For example, General Zhong is fighting bloodily in the front, so these people in the rear should not challenge him, even if they have that strength. ”

Xia Yuan understood, this was the same as their cultivators in the Northern Darkness respecting the Xuanwu Palace. At the same time, she was a little confused. That is, how does Donghao's Qinglong Hall feel that it has no sense of existence? In fact, not only Xia Yuan, but even the people of Donghao have this doubt.

However, has the Blue Dragon Hall really declined? The answer is clearly no. The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and no matter how the Qinglong Hall declines, it is also one of the five great temples, and its status and overall strength are beyond doubt. The reason why it is not famous is because the center of gravity of the Qinglong Hall is all on the battlefield of Wushan.

By the way, the number of Nine Rank in the Blue Dragon Hall is the largest among the five major shrines. This is determined by many factors such as the cultivation system, geographical location, historical inheritance, etc. At the same time, the number of nine products in the three states of Donghao is much higher than that of the other four countries, but it is a little less than that of Shangzhou.

The reason why this is so is because those people in Shangzhou have a lot of resources and do not bear the so-called social responsibility. In this way, cultivation will naturally go up. More on that later.

Having said that, after Lin Man'er entered the Qinglong Xuan Coffin, he saw that the puppet of Nihuang was already waiting inside. Lin Man'er took a closer look and found that what he was holding was not the Qingshuang Sword, but a relatively ordinary earth-level divine weapon.

Recalling the previous meeting in the back ridge of Meishan, Lin Man'er greeted very warmly: "Okay, you Nihuang, our last Liangzi hasn't been settled yet!" ”

Although the puppet has a trace of the soul of Nihuang, it can only communicate with each other and the memories are not shared. Therefore, the puppet didn't understand what Lin Man'er was saying, but from the analysis of his words, it should be the "old man".

At the moment, he replied very indifferently - don't talk nonsense, let's do it!

Lin Man'er laughed sheepishly, and then summoned Yan Ji and Feng Ji. However, in the face of the attacks of the two sixth-level spirit kings, the puppet actually calmly coped with it. Yan Ji's earth fire attack was split by a sword, and Feng Ji's wind blade was blocked by sword qi.

Seeing this scene, Lin Man'er directly sacrificed the mourning sword, and had a battle of attack and defense with the puppet. It's a pity that Lin Man'er wants to use the magic sword to take advantage, it's just a fool's dream.

After a few rounds, the puppet was unscathed, but Lin Man'er himself was hit by a few swords. After thinking about it, Lin Man'er thought that the puppet in front of him had thousands of years of true qi accumulation, and if he wanted to win by swordsmanship, he could only use a big killing move.

Thinking of this, Lin Man'er ordered Yan Ji and Feng Ji to entangle the puppet, while he opened the Wind and Thunder Realm and urged the seventh form of the Wind and Thunder Sword Technique, Storm Thunder.

At the same time, Nihuang's puppet made a judgment, forced Yan Ji and Feng Ji back with a sword, and took advantage of the situation to urge the eighth sword of the thirteen swords that broke the sky - Hollow Valley Youlan.

The two sides swung their swords separately, and the powerful sword momentum collided violently with the sword qi, which eventually triggered a series of explosions. When the explosion subsided, Lin Man'er lay down and Nihuang stood.

Obviously, Lin Man'er's storm and thunder can't compete with Nihuang's Empty Valley Youlan. On the one hand, it is because of the gap in the cultivation of the two sides, and on the other hand, it is the gap in the comprehension of the powerful sword moves of the two sides.

To put it bluntly, Lin Man'er hadn't practiced Storm Thunder much at all, and it was difficult to exert his due power. On the other hand, on the Nihuang side, although it is a seventh-grade pure sword immortal, it is not the seventh-style eagle striking the sky, but the eighth-type hollow valley orchid.

The Nihuang sword pointed at Lin Man'er, and still said coldly: "You, vulnerable." ”

Lin Man'er wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and after slowly getting up, he said with a crazy expression: "Haha, the pure sword is really powerful in sword cultivation." However, Lao Tzu is not just a magic sword. ”

After that, directly open the realm of the soul and urge the Death Sword to attack.

At that moment, Nihuang mechanically urged the sword qi barrier, but unfortunately miscalculated the power of the soul sword. In the next moment, the Mourning Sword breaks off on its own and attacks the puppet at multiple angles at once. Eventually, the puppet showed a brief dullness and was destroyed by the Death Sword.

Lin Man'er returned to the Qinglong Tower, looked at Xia Yuan in front of her, and said in disbelief: "How did you beat her?" ”

Xia Yuan summoned the Shadow Lin Sword and handed it directly to Lin Man'er. Lin Man'er took over without hesitation, but found that the Shadow Lin Sword was very resistant to him. At that moment, he snorted and forcibly urged the soul thought to suppress. However, the reputation of the evil sword was not blown out, and when Lin Man'er dared to suppress it, he actually began to forcibly mobilize the true qi in Xia Yuan's body.

Interestingly, when the Mourning Sword saw that the evil sword kid dared to be presumptuous in front of it, he actually took the initiative to appear and pressed the sword spirit with the sword spirit.

What's even more interesting is that the evil sword spirit actually knows the samurai spirit, and mocks: "You, a defeated general, dare to be presumptuous in front of me?" ”

The Samurai seemed to remember some old memories, and although it was only a fragment of memory, it still drew out the Samurai Shovel. As soon as the Samurai came out, the evil sword spirit was immediately honest. After all, these are not easy to talk about.

After Lin Man'er gained insight into the contest between the sword spirits, he pointed at the Shadow Lin Sword and said with a look of disdain: "Look at your appearance, you know how to bully honest people." There is a kind of one, and I have a fight with the soul? ”

The Shadow Lin Sword Spirit is a typical death to save face, and when he saw that the Death Sword was incomplete, he mocked: "I am a star soldier, and I disdain to fight with the remnants of the army." ”

Shi Soul snorted and replied: "I can't remember the star soldiers that Lao Tzu killed, not to mention that you are also a remnant soldier now. ”

"That's better than you, too."

"Really? Don't be bare and try it? ”

Lin Man'er listened to the two sword spirits arguing, and suddenly laughed: "Well, it's good, it's better for the two of you to decide the ownership of the Zichuan Sword." ”

Xia Yuan smiled and agreed with Lin Man'er's proposal.

However, as soon as the words fell, I listened to Shi Soul still complaining, saying that he was not in a good state and might not be able to suppress the other party. Interestingly, Xia Yuan also heard the complaint of the evil sword, saying that he was not in good shape and should not fight alone. However, if the owner is present, then it has a good chance of winning.

Xia Yuan smiled bitterly, and muttered in her heart: Let me join the war, I'm afraid you want to devour the master, right?

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Bao Jinjiao, who was watching the play on the side, coughed and reminded: "You two should go to the fifth floor." ”

After hearing this, Lin Man'er looked at Xia Yuan and asked, "Why don't we just fight?" ”

Xia Yuan said with a smile: "Are you afraid?" ”

Lin Man'er raised his head and said with a proud face: "Nihuang and Zhong Guoli are husband and wife, and the two of them are both eight-rank pure sword immortals. Therefore, the strength of the two of them should not be much different. Since I can defeat Nihuang, I can defeat Zhong Guoli. But you're probably a little bit of a problem, aren't you? ”

Xia Yuan remembered that she had been forcibly absorbed by the Shadow Lin Sword just now, and she felt faintly uneasy in her heart. After some thought, she agreed to fight with Lin Man'er and decide the ownership of the Zichuan Sword.

However, Dongfang Huaijie appeared directly, pointed at the two, and said, "What do you think this place is?" Is it your turn to make your own decisions? ”

Lin Man'er smiled and said, "You're right, I can go to the fifth layer to play, I can't beat it anyway." ”

Nihuang naturally understood what Lin Man'er meant, and echoed: "I also want to see the strength of the Qinglong Internal Guard Commander, but I can only see it." "Let's go to the fifth layer with Lin Man'er.

Dongfang Huaijie looked at the disappeared backs of the two, and said angrily: "Why did I, Donghao, come out of him, a white-eyed wolf?" ”

Bao Jinjiao covered her mouth and chuckled: "Great Elder, don't be angry, anyway, the Zichuan Sword will still stay in our Donghao." ”

"Compared to the country's reputation, what is a Zichuan sword? Could it be that the competition that consumes a lot of national strength is just to make the white-eyed wolf cheap? ”

Bao Jinjiao, as Bao Xiujun's son, naturally knows Dabi's intentions. At that moment, after a little silence, he hinted: "Great Elder, once a son of heaven and a courtier, the affairs of the previous dynasty should always have an end. ”

"You can't say that, that kid is deeply favored by the country, so he should put aside his personal grievances and serve the country wholeheartedly."

"What you say is true, but the situation is not quite the same. In the past, the five countries competed for power, but now they have to unite with the outside world! I heard my father say that in addition to our Donghao, Beiming, Xiluo, and Nanling were all invaded by foreign tribes. Moreover, even the three states of the Central Plains were attacked by sneak attacks and suffered heavy losses. Otherwise, it's not just the two of them standing here. ”

After Dongfang Huaijie thought about it carefully, he looked horrified and said, "The above is going to give up the ancestral star?" ”

"The disciple has lived in the Qinglong Pagoda for a long time like you, and he knows very little about the outside world, so he can't make a judgment, and he is not qualified to judge."

Dongfang Huaijie said with a solemn expression: "Child, there may be trouble in the future." Once the Gate of Heaven is closed, our Terran race will inevitably suffer from foreign invasion to coerce Heavenly Court to compromise. From the analysis of various deeds, Heavenly Court no longer needs us. A big war is inevitable, what will our human race do to confront the sea, wing, and demon races at that time? ”

"Perhaps...... It's not as serious as you think. ”

"Well, I hope so!" Dongfang Huaijie sighed heavily and disappeared into the Blue Dragon Tower.

——————————

After Lin Man'er and Xia Yuan ascended to the fifth layer, you look at me, I look at you, and they are unwilling to take the lead in the challenge. The reason for this is naturally that neither of them trusts the other. If the first challenger fails, and the latter succeeds in the challenge, there is no need to fight.

However, neither of them wanted to tear their faces, so they each walked around the tower to see who could not hold their breath first. Dongfang Huaijie was in a heavy mood after talking with Bao Jinjiao, and he didn't bother to pay attention to them.

Seeing that an hour had passed, Lin Man'er and Xia Yuan still didn't bow their heads. The more Xia Yuan waited, the more anxious she became, after all, every time she delayed a minute, one more person might die on the Beiming side. On the contrary, it was Lin Man'er, who was still lying on the window with a hippie smile and greeting the friends waiting under the tower.

"Yuwazi, I agreed to what you discussed with me. However, you have to keep an eye on it, lest the duck with its beak fly away. ”

After hearing this, the fish baby didn't mention how embarrassing it was. He really couldn't figure out how Lin Man'er's brain grew, how could such a confidential thing be said in front of so many people?

In fact, although Lin Man'er was calm on the surface, she was more anxious than Xia Yuan in her heart. After all, he didn't just want the Zichuan Sword, he wanted the Surprise Sword even more. According to Zhong Shengtian's conditions, it must be exchanged for combat merits. Therefore, he did not delay a point, and his combat exploits were one point less.

In this way, another hour passed, and Xia Yuan really couldn't wait. walked up to Lin Man'er and said with a serious face: "I believe in you once, I hope you can be a gentleman once." ”

Lin Man'er patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, I am stable in terms of gentleman." ”

Xia Yuan took a deep breath and asked Dongfang Jie to open the coffin of the Green Dragon. When she entered, she saw Zhong Guoli's puppet. After some temptation, as Lin Man'er said, Zhong Guoli's cultivation is not much different from Nihuang's. And, again, there is a very brief dullness.

Xia Yuan hesitated in her heart, whether to use the Shadow Lin Sword to repeat the technique. But if you think about it, if you can defeat it, Lin Man'er will probably be able to do it too. Thinking of this, she decided to stop for the time being, so that she could deal with Lin Man'er with all her might.

For this reason, Xia Yuan very calmly sent his head to Zhong Guoli's sword. In the end, Xia Yuan's challenge failed and stopped at the fifth layer.

When she returned to the Qinglong Tower, she saw Lin Man'er laughing loudly: "Haha...... You've finally been fooled, and I'm not going to be stupid enough to share life and death with the evil sword. ”

Xia Yuan was furious and scolded: "Lin-barbarian-er, you villain, you actually rebelled, do you still want to be faced?" ”

Lin Man'er shrugged his shoulders and said with a rogue look: "I'm not a gentleman in the first place, not to mention that I don't want to fight with a crazy woman." After a pause, he pointed to the top of his head and said, "Crazy woman, you can see, Lao Tzu is going to leave a permanent name in the Qinglong Tower today." "After that, ask Dongfang Huaijie to open the Qinglong Xuan Coffin.

It stands to reason that Dongfang Huaijie should be happy with this result, but at this moment and then, he no longer cares about the so-called five-nation rivalry.

Xia Yuan grinded her teeth and left the Blue Dragon Tower with hatred. However, when she passed by the seventh floor, Bao Jinjiao suddenly stopped her and asked, "Do you really think Lin Man'er is a villain who doesn't keep his promises?" ”

Xia Yuan asked rhetorically, "Isn't it?" ”

Bao Jinjiao laughed and said to herself: "If you want the Qinglong Tower to leave a permanent name, you must at least hit the third layer. Before that, you have to defeat the Great Commander of the Blue Dragon Internal Guard, the Wine Sword Immortal, and the General of the Green Dragon Guard. It's a pipe dream! ”

Xia Yuan suddenly reacted and said angrily: "Hmph, I am amorous!" ”

After that, he stayed on the seventh floor for the time being, drinking tea while waiting for some self-inflicted villain to create unimaginable miracles.
