Chapter 1106: Fighting for Face

Xiao Zhan had no intention of staying outside, but wanted to rush back to the Ice Cloud Sect as quickly as possible to continue cultivating with peace of mind.

This time, I came to participate in the alchemy conference held by the Danding League, which was even smoother than expected, and it was even over in less than two days.

And Xiao Zhan's biggest gain was that he gained the friendship of the Danding League, and became a disciple of the Danding League, and he also got the privilege of not having to go to the headquarters of the Danding League for the time being.

The identity of the disciple of the Danding League is actually equivalent to a life talisman.

In short, Xiao Zhan's harvest is still very great.

Xiao Zhan also took out the jade plate given by Qing Xuanzi, the elder of the Danding League.

There is indeed a route to the headquarters of the Danding League, which is extremely far away.

When there was still about half a month away from the Ice Cloud Sect, Xiao Zhan received a summons from Si Nanyun, the sect leader of the Ice Cloud Sect, asking about participating in the Alchemy Conference.

Xiao Zhan thought about it, and did not hide his current situation.

After all, the identity of the disciple of the Danding League is not harmful to Xiao Zhan, and it doesn't hurt to let Si Nanyun know.

Sure enough, Si Nanyun was very satisfied when she heard that Xiao Zhan not only passed the assessment and certification, but also became a disciple of the Danding League.

Because the disciples of the Danding League can also be the disciples of other sects.

Xiao Zhan was like a bridge, invisibly establishing a potential connection between the Ice Cloud Sect and the Danding Alliance.

Subsequently, Si Nanyun asked Xiao Zhan about the situation of several other disciples of the Ice Cloud Sect.

However, Xiao Zhan did not meet the other disciples of the Ice Cloud Sect in Yangcheng, and Xiao Zhan did not know what the specific situation was, and he did not care at all.

After putting away the transmission jade talisman, Xiao Zhan did not hesitate to use the magic talisman in his hand, and it only took ten or so days to return to the Ice Cloud Sect.

As soon as Xiao Zhan returned to his residence, Si Nanyun came to see Xiao Zhan and congratulated Xiao Zhan.

Then Xiao Zhan began to retreat.

Half a year later.

Xiao Zhan, who was cultivating, opened his eyes suddenly, and his face could not hide the excitement.

Because he finally succeeded in establishing a connection with the Chaos Bead at this moment, he would be able to invoke the Chaos Bead's endless Chaos Power to cultivate without the help of his master in the future.

Not only that, but the exercise that came with the Chaos Bead was finally seen by Xiao Zhan.

This exercise has no name.

Because since the Chaos Bead was born with the Chaos World, Xiao Zhan was only the second host.

At the same time, Xiao Zhan was also the second person besides the master to practice this Chaos Exercise.

At this time, he was in the second-level world in Xiao Zhan's body, on a planet in the vast universe.

The illusory figure appeared, nodded with satisfaction, and spoke:

"Xiao Zhan, you are very good, it took you less time than when I first came into contact with this exercise."

"But what I want to tell you is that this Chaos Exercise, cultivated by different people, has different effects and methods, and the results of cultivation are also the most suitable for you."

"Therefore, I can't give you any advice on how to practice this exercise."

"It's up to you to figure it out."

Xiao Zhan exhaled a turbid breath and said in a deep voice:

"Master, your soul body is weak, is there any way I can strengthen your soul body?"

The old man smiled:

"You don't have to worry about my situation."

"My soul body is attached to the Chaos Orb, which is the best protection for my soul body."

"So, if my soul is going to perish, no matter what you do, you can't change it."

"What's more, I've lived too long, too long, and now that the Chaos Bead has a host, even if my soul dies now, I don't have any regrets."

Xiao Zhan nodded, and then said no more.

He closed his eyes, and a mysterious exercise came to his mind.

Soon, Xiao Zhan fell into a state of epiphany.

In cultivation, the years always pass quickly.

Three years have passed in a flash.

On this day, Xiao Zhan was suddenly awakened.

He frowned instantly.

Because Si Nanyun had already told him before, if it was okay, no one would disturb his cultivation.

Now that I am awakened, I think something must have happened.

Outside the courtyard, Tan Li was wearing a light blue dress and a sword in her hand, looking heroic.

Seeing that the formation opened a gap, she walked in quickly, looked at Xiao Zhan who was sitting cross-legged on the tree, and said in a deep voice:

"Senior Brother Xiao, the sect master asked me to take you to the Ice Cloud Palace."

Xiao Zhan nodded, jumped forward, landed beside Tan Li, and followed her in the direction of the Ice Cloud Palace.

Not long after, Tan Li took Xiao Zhan to the outside of the Ice Cloud Palace.

Tan Li lowered her voice and said:

"Senior Brother Xiao, go in by yourself, I'll go back first."

Xiao Zhan nodded and walked towards the door of the main hall.

As soon as he walked into the main hall, Xiao Zhan saw that the main hall was full of people.

Based on the seats, Xiao Zhan could tell which people were from the Ice Cloud Sect and which were outsiders.

And everyone in the hall showed a puzzled look when they saw Xiao Zhan.

At this time, the people in the main hall are at least at the level of elders.

After Xiao Zhan joined the Ice Cloud Sect, he spent most of his time practicing in retreat, and even going to the alchemy conference was only known to Si Nanyun and Tan Li.

Seeing Xiao Zhan coming, Si Nanyun pointed to a position near the door, and slowly spoke:

"Sit down, Xiao Zhan."

Xiao Zhan nodded, and then sat down in his seat.

In this way, the eyes of these people present were even more surprised.

Because Xiao Zhan was wearing the disciple uniform of the Ice Cloud Sect, he looked like an ordinary disciple, so what qualifications did he have to sit here.

Xiao Zhan, on the other hand, was looking at the group of people sitting opposite, less than ten meters apart.

Among them was a square-faced middle-aged man with a beard, his face was expressionless, and his body exuded a powerful coercion.

To his left sat a middle-aged woman, also with a cold face.

On the right is an old man with squinting eyes and a smile on his face.

All three were dressed in black robes.

And behind the three of them, there were more than a dozen young people standing, all of whom were looking at Xiao Zhan with fierce eyes at this time.

Si Nanyun said lightly at this time:

"Xiao Zhan, sitting opposite you are the three elders of the Tiannan Sect."

Although Xiao Zhan had never heard the name, out of politeness, he still hugged his fists to the three people opposite, which was regarded as a greeting.

However, the square-faced middle-aged man sitting in the middle snorted coldly.

Si Nanyun let Xiao Zhan, an ordinary disciple of the Ice Cloud Sect, sit opposite them, how could they be happy.

Si Nanyun continued to speak calmly:

"Xiao Zhan, standing behind these three is the best of the younger generation of the Tiannan Sect."

"By the way, the strength of the Tiannan Sect is very strong, and it is not much better than our Ice Cloud Sect."

"Moreover, the current sect master of the Tiannan Sect is still an old acquaintance with me."

Xiao Zhan frowned slightly, not knowing what purpose Si Nanyun had in saying these words.

However, Si Nanyun quickly gave an explanation:

"I have made an agreement with the sect master of the Tiannan sect that every ten years, I will send the geniuses of the younger generation of my respective sect to compete."

Hearing this, the brows of the elders of the Ice Cloud Sect present furrowed even deeper.

Because none of the geniuses of the Ice Cloud Sect were present, but an ordinary disciple they had never heard of at all.

Xiao Zhan naturally didn't want to be in the limelight, so he hugged his fists and said:

"There are many geniuses in the Ice Cloud Sect, I'm just an ordinary disciple, so I don't think I should be the opponent of these senior brothers and sisters on the other side."

"Sect Master, let's call our Ice Cloud Sect's true geniuses over."

When Si Nanyun heard this, she didn't get angry, and immediately understood that Xiao Zhan didn't want to be in the limelight.

She had a cold temperament.

But only Mu Wanqiu, the sect leader of the Tiannan faction, couldn't get by.

When both of them were still very weak, they already knew each other, and neither of them obeyed the other.

The two are equally talented, both regard each other as competitors, and neither is convinced, and often compete.

Si Nanyun later became the sect leader of the Bingyun Sect, and Mu Wanqiu later became the sect leader of the Tiannan faction.

With the identity of two people, fighting again is obviously not in line with the identity.

Coupled with the fact that the strength of the two sects is about the same, the two made an agreement that every ten years, they will send young geniuses from their respective sects to compete.

The elders of the Ice Cloud Sect obviously knew about this matter.

Although they felt that this was completely unnecessary, they didn't want to see the geniuses of the Ice Cloud Sect lose to the geniuses of the Tiannan Sect.

In the past competitions, both sides have won and lost, and on the whole, no one side has the upper hand.

Si Nanyun wanted Xiao Zhan to come out this time, just to suppress the Tiannan faction.

However, Xiao Zhan was reluctant to be in the limelight.

After thinking for a moment, Si Nanyun nodded:

"Then Xiao Zhan, let's take a look first."

After speaking, Si Nanyun took out the communication jade plate and ordered:

"Let Liang Xin and Lin Dong ...... They're coming to the Ice Cloud Temple."

After a short time, he saw twelve figures enter the Ice Cloud Palace.

Si Nanyun got straight to the point:

"I called you here to compete with the young talents of the Tiannan faction and ask for advice from each other."

"Take it easy, don't be too nervous."

The twelve geniuses of the Ice Cloud Sect all nodded, but their eyes were fixed on the twelve young men of the Tiannan Sect.

Although Si Nanyun said to let them relax, they didn't want to lose.

Si Nanyun looked at the three elders led by the Tiannan faction at this time, and said lightly:

"Three, can we begin?"

The square-faced middle-aged man sitting in the middle was still expressionless, and said in a hoarse voice:

"Then according to the previous rules, there will be four rounds of competition, including force, refining, alchemy, and formation."

Si Nanyun nodded calmly:

"No problem."

The middle-aged man looked at the twelve geniuses on the side of the Ice Cloud Sect at this time, and slowly spoke:

"In the first round, we will test the formation."

"One of us will set up the formation, and the twelve of you will crack it."

"Then someone from your side will arrange a formation, and the people I brought will crack it."

After speaking, the middle-aged man looked back at a thin man:

"Wu Fei, you can get on."

A chuckle appeared on the corner of the man's mouth named Wu Fei, and his eyes were full of confidence.

Although he is thin, the aura emanating from his body is not weak.

He walked directly to the outside of the main hall and began to arrange the formation in the open space outside.

Wu Fei was very confident in his formation level, and he didn't hide it at all, as if he had determined that the twelve geniuses of the Ice Cloud Sect couldn't see the flaws at all.

And the elders on both sides were also watching his movements.

Seeing Wu Fei's figure constantly flashing, hiding the array flags in the void, even the elders of the Ice Cloud Sect had to admit that this Wu Fei's attainments in the formation were indeed not low.
