Zhang Ruochen caught up with the tall and thin man, stood beside him, walked side by side, and asked curiously: "Just now, you said that you are different from me, what do you mean?"

The tall and thin man's eyes kept staring ahead, and he didn't mean to talk to Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen said again: "If you tell me the reason, I will tell you the reason." ”

Maybe it's because Zhang Ruochen is a disciple of the Eternal Life Academy. Or maybe it's because the tall and thin man is really curious about Zhang Ruochen's abnormal behavior. In the end, he spoke: "My cultivation has reached the eighth transformation of the Ichthyosaurus, even if I swallow the holy spring, it is impossible to break through to the ninth transformation of the Ichthyosaurus. ”

Zhang Ruochen nodded suddenly, so it was, and said, "So, you plan to wait until you break through the ninth transformation of the fish and dragon, and then take the holy spring, and use the power of the holy spring to comprehend the holy path, so as to impact the realm of the half-saint." ”

"Not bad. ”

The tall and thin man's gaze stared at Zhang Ruochen: "Don't tell me, you have also reached the eighth transformation of the fish dragon?" Although I can't see through your cultivation, I know that your realm is still a big gap from the eighth change of the fish dragon. ”

"Amazing, worthy of being the strongest of the eighth change of the fish dragon. ”

Zhang Ruochen said with a smile: "It doesn't hurt to tell you, the reason why I don't stay in the first holy spring to improve my cultivation is because I want to go to the top of the second holy mountain to fill the holy water in the second holy spring, and if I have the opportunity, I also want to go to the top of the third mountain to have a look." It's only one day a month, so why should I waste my time on the first mountain?"

The corners of the tall and thin man's mouth twitched slightly, and he glanced at Zhang Ruochen carefully, and said, "I really didn't expect that there would be such an arrogant person in the Immortal Academy. With your cultivation, being able to pass the first level of the second mountain is enough to cause a sensation in the Liangyi Sect. ”

Obviously, the tall and thin man didn't believe that Zhang Ruochen could reach the top of the second mountain, and only felt that Zhang Ruochen was a fanatic who couldn't help himself.

Previously, he saw that Zhang Ruochen had saved the disciple of the Holy Tradition who had fallen off the cliff, and he felt that Zhang Ruochen was quite humane, and they were both disciples of the Immortal Academy, so he wanted to make a friend with Zhang Ruochen.

But because of what Zhang Ruochen said just now, the only trace of good impression he had for Zhang Ruochen was gone.

The tall and thin man walked straight forward and never said a word to Zhang Ruochen again.

If you say what you say and can do it, you can do it, it's called self-confidence.

If you say what you say, but you can't do it, it's called arrogance.

Zhang Ruochen has always felt that he is a confident person, if a person doesn't even have self-confidence, what else can he do?

Seeing the tall and thin man leave without looking back, Zhang Ruochen just shook his head and smiled, but without any mood fluctuations, he walked to the foot of the second mountain with his hands behind his back.

Before the two of them arrived, at the foot of the mountain, dozens of Holy Transmission disciples had already gathered here.

The monks who were able to come to the second mountain were naturally not simple people, and they were all rare existences among the disciples of the Holy Tradition.

In front of him is a hundred-zhang high cyan stone wall, and on the stone wall, there are words cut out with swords.

Compared to the text at the foot of Daishiyama Mountain, the text here contains a more powerful kendo power.

Just standing under the stone wall, the monk could feel a tingling pain in his skin, as if an invisible sword aura had struck them.

Moreover, the text on the stone wall is quite obscure and extremely difficult to understand.

There are even some characters that have never appeared on the scroll, but are the fonts and glyphs created by the sages of the Liangyi Sect themselves.

Such words are called "sacred texts".

In the crowd, Zhang Ruochen saw Xu Changsheng and Gai Hao. At this moment, Gai Hao was fighting with a translucent figure, and the two were inseparable, surrounded by sword energy.

After about thirty moves, Gai Hao was hit in the chest by the sword of the translucent figure, tearing out a half-foot-long bloody wound, and was instantly defeated.

"Failed. ”

The translucent figure, turned into a text, flew back to the stone wall.

After all, Gai Hao still failed to break through the first level of the second mountain.

However, his record was affirmed by everyone present. Just with the cultivation of the third transformation of the fish dragon, he can fight against the keeper of the first level of the second heavy mountain for more than 30 moves, and only the holy body can be so powerful.

Gai Hao was defeated, immediately took the healing pill, and retreated to the side.

"It is worthy of being a holy body, such a young kendo cultivator has already reached this step, at most three years, Gai Hao should be able to break through the first level of the second mountain. A disciple of the Ninth Transformation of the Ichthyosaurus said.

This disciple of the Holy Tradition was already eighty-five years old, but he only looked like a middle-aged man. His cultivation is naturally quite profound, and when he steps out, he gives people a feeling that the earth is collapsing.

He walked to the bottom of the stone wall and selected one of the characters, which then fell off and coalesced into the form of a gatekeeper.

"Bang bang. ”

After fighting sixteen moves in a row, this holy disciple of the ninth transformation of the fish dragon was beaten out by the gatekeeper.

The challenge failed.

Although this disciple of the ninth transformation of the Ichthyosaurus has a profound cultivation, his understanding of the way of the sword is not as good as Gai Hao of the third transformation of the Ichthyosaurus, so he only blocked the sixteen moves of the gatekeeper.

From this, it can also be seen how perverted the test of the second mountain is, even the Holy Body and the Ninth Transformation of the Ichthyosaurus are difficult to pass the first level.

Someone noticed Zhang Ruochen and the tall and thin man, and immediately said in surprise: "Hey! Two more newcomers rushed through the three passes of the first mountain and came here." ”

"It's kind of interesting, both of them are Holy Disciples of the Immortal Academy, when did the Immortal Academy become so strong?"

"In the past thirty years, every time there has been a big competition between the sects, the ranking of the Immortal Academy has almost been at the bottom. How could it be possible to have two Tianjiao at once?"

The arrival of Zhang Ruochen and the tall and thin man caused a lot of restlessness in the second mountain. After all, who is not a famous monk who can come to the second mountain?

The Holy Transmission disciples present turned their heads and looked over.

When Xu Changsheng saw Zhang Ruochen, he let out a soft cold snort from his mouth. Obviously, Zhang Ruochen was able to come to the second mountain, which made him feel quite disdainful.

Finally, someone recognized the identity of the tall and thin man, his face changed slightly, and he immediately sent a message to all the Holy Transmission disciples present.

"It turned out to be him. ”

Knowing the identity of the tall and thin man, the rest of the Holy Transmission disciples also showed a look of surprise, and immediately retreated left and right, making way for the tall and thin man.

There were only three people, who still seemed calm and relaxed, and did not panic in the slightest because of the arrival of the tall and thin man.

The first is Xu Changsheng.

The second is Qin Yufan, who is standing under the stone wall.

The last man, standing on the edge of a cliff in the distance. Her delicate body was covered by a layer of white mist, her figure was very slender, her legs were straight and slender, although she couldn't see the facial features on her face clearly, she could see the soft curves of her body outline.

Zhang Ruochen glanced at her from a distance, and could roughly guess her identity, it should be the proud daughter of the sky who had just reached the sword heart as soon as she was born, Qi Feiyu.

Xu Changsheng glanced at the tall and thin man and said, "Silkworm Dong, you are finally willing to return to the sect, I thought that you would fight in the battlefield of the ruins for the rest of your life." ”

The tall and thin man said, "If it weren't for the upcoming Sword Conference, I wouldn't have come back." ”

"Since you're back, let's fight!"

Xu Changsheng's voice contained a strong sound wave, and surging holy qi poured out from his body, and in an instant, behind him, a huge martial soul phantom thirteen zhang high was condensed.

"Rustle!"

Suddenly, sand and rocks flew at the foot of the second mountain, and the wind howled, like hundreds of wind blades shuttling through the air.

Zhang Ruochen stood in the distance, quietly watching, and said to himself: "It turns out that he is the Blood Sword Silkworm Winter, and he is really a strong opponent." ”

Although Zhang Ruochen has never fought with Silkworm Dong, he can still sense the strength of this person, which is simply a little unfathomable.

Then, Zhang Ruochen's gaze stared at Xu Changsheng again.

Xu Changsheng was younger than Silkworm Dong, and he seemed to be full of fighting spirit, but in fact, Zhang Ruochen found that Xu Changsheng's eyes were quite calm. It can be seen that this person is not an impulsive person, but a brave and resourceful person.

Another powerful person.

Even Zhang Ruochen was a little anxious, wanting to see what kind of scene Xu Changsheng and Silkworm Dong would be?

In the face of Xu Changsheng's challenge, Silkworm Dong looked extremely calm, and said: "I'm here to break through the second mountain, I don't want to waste my strength at the foot of the mountain, as long as you are strong enough, when the kendo competition, we will definitely have a chance to fight." ”

Xu Changsheng retracted the battle intent on his body and said, "Since this is the case, let's compare who can go further in the Ancient God Mountain." ”

Xu Changsheng walked to the bottom of the stone wall first, raised his head, glanced at the stone wall, and said, "Although I have already passed the first level of the second mountain, this time, I want to challenge two words. ”

The surrounding Holy Transmission disciples were all shaken, and no one expected that Xu Changsheng would dare to challenge two words at once.

Two words, it is equivalent to him having to fight against two gatekeepers alone, and compared with challenging one gatekeeper, the difficulty is more than doubled.

"Will Xu Changsheng be too confident in his own kendo?"

"The word one-time challenge should also be a great challenge for him. ”

"Wow!"

On the stone wall, the two words broke away at the same time, turned into two translucent figures, and attacked Xu Changsheng at the same time.

The three figures fought together, fiercely clashing, except for Qin Yufan, Silkworm Dong, and Qi Feiyu, the rest of the people all retreated far away, afraid of being accidentally injured by the sword qi.

Zhang Ruochen held his chin in his hand, observed for a moment, and said to himself: "If you want to pass this level, the sword dao realm must at least reach the initial level of sword heart clearing, and you must cultivate the sword to the third layer realm." ”

According to Zhang Ruochen's judgment, Xu Changsheng had almost cultivated Jian Yi to the fourth layer realm, and with his strength, he still had a certain chance of winning against the two gatekeepers at the same time.

Half an hour later, Xu Changsheng displayed a ghost-level mid-grade swordsmanship, defeated the two gatekeepers, and passed this level.

I don't know when, Han Yun stood silently behind Zhang Ruochen, with a pair of watery beautiful eyes, staring at Xu Changsheng in the distance, with red lips and white teeth, he smiled: "Challenge two words, you can actually win, Xu Changsheng should have cultivated Jian Yi to the fourth layer realm, it's really powerful." ”

Han Huan was able to break through the three levels of the first mountain, and Zhang Ruochen was not surprised at all.

Zhang Ruochen said without squinting: "Senior Sister Han Yun, you'd better stay away from me." ”

Han Yun stared at him with resentful eyes, and said, "You haven't always liked me very much, why did I take the initiative to approach you, and you began to reject me again." Aren't you the cat who likes to steal fish?"

"Haven't you heard the words 'red face and trouble'? That Senior Brother Xu of yours, if he sees me and you getting so close, I'm afraid he will say that I am teasing you. In this way, wouldn't I become his rival for no reason?" Zhang Ruochen said.

Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen felt a pair of sharp eyes staring at him, so he followed his eyes and looked at him, just opposite Xu Changsheng's eyes.

Zhang Ruochen smiled bitterly and said, "Look! Every time I get too close to you, I will always be hostile." ”

Han Yu squinted slightly, smiled shallowly, and whispered in Zhang Ruochen's ear: "Originally, I had already decided to give you a chance to pursue me, but I didn't expect that you would be a coward." Could it be that you were stared at by Xu Changsheng, and you were scared?"

Xu Changsheng stood under the stone wall, and when he saw Zhang Ruochen and Han Yun in the distance, they were not only very close, but also talking and laughing, and a feeling of jealousy and hatred arose in his heart.

However, he didn't show that emotion, but instead showed an elegant smile on his face, and said from afar: "Senior Brother Lin Yue, I heard that you fused the sword intent of the three ancestors in a row at the coronation ceremony, creating an unprecedented feat in the history of the Liangyi Sect, thinking that your talent in sword dao must be quite amazing." Today, are you going to challenge a few words?"
