Volume 5: The First Song Three Hundred and Twenty-Five: The Examination of Grace and Clarity (8)
Yun Xi is enchanted!
Li Jian was shocked and put his sword in his hand again, in his opinion, there must be a fierce battle today, and he also had to fight against Yunxi, who had already fallen into the demon in front of him.
Just like Xiao Yi, who fought hard in Dacangze last time.
But Li Jian was wrong.
Yun Xi's figure was gradually revealed in the black mist, not that the black mist dissipated, but that the black mist penetrated directly into her body through Yun Xi's limbs and bones, at this time Yun Xi's face was slightly dark, a pair of eyes were weirdly dark purple, the eyes were full of fine dark red bloodshots, the black hair on her head was fluttering upwards as if immersed in water, her face was full of hideous color, and in front of her, a spirit sword full of cold light was trembling violently, I don't know if Yun Xi is trying his best to control this sword or this sword is trying his best to break free from Yun Xi's control, the sword blade is pointing at Li Jian's chest, and it is about to explode!
On the other side, Li Jian was holding a sword and was on high alert.
Everyone in the audience was stunned by this scene, many people didn't even understand who won and who lost this competition, why did the woman suddenly become like a ghost, what happened here?
Of course, there were also Mu Xiufeng's disciples watching the battle in the audience, and they naturally understood what was going on now, but they didn't expect that the rumored demon thing happened in the ring of Chengguan En's test!
In addition to Mu Xiufeng's disciples, there were also some well-informed disciples who also understood what was happening, including the four Qian Chao who were watching the battle in the audience.
"Qian boy, Yunxi, she ......" Tang Ping asked anxiously.
"It must be a demon...... Qian Chao said.
"Then what should I do, the sword cultivation into the demon is very powerful......" Yan Xuan has seen the means of the sword cultivation after entering the demon, so he said worriedly.
"Let's go, this is no longer a competition, the mother-in-law surnamed Yun can't afford to lose, she's crazy, let's go help Brother Li and take her down!" Lu Pingchuan stood up and said with his hands in his hands.
Tang Ping and Yan Xuan seem to have this intention.
"Don't worry!" Qian Chao hurriedly stopped the three partners, "We don't need to make a move, and we don't need Brother Li to fight her again, Yao ......"
Qian Chao said and gestured to the five stone pillars surrounding the ring.
"The formation is about to be launched!"
âĻâĻ
The formation was really launched.
"There is no blood on the stage, and the choice does not hurt people", the five stone pillars around the ring are the formations that protect the disciples on and off the stage, in addition to the danger when this formation will be activated, the sword cultivation on the ring will also make the formation launched against the sword cultivation of the demon.
Under the blue light in the depths of Qian Chao's eyes, he could see clearly that the runes in the five stone pillars had begun to flicker, although others could not see it, but at this time, there was already a resonant buzzing sound in the ring, and the sound was getting louder and louder, making many people begin to be more surprised and uneasy.
Just when Yun Xi let out a tearing roar, and with a cold light, her spirit sword stabbed at Li Jian with unparalleled momentum, this was also Li Jian's most nervous moment, and when he was about to deal with the sword, a sudden change occurred!
In Qian Chao's opinion, each of the five stone pillars in the ring sent out two green faint lights to the ring, and shot at Yun Xi and her sword at the same time, well, naturally this can only be seen under his blue eye technique, and in the eyes of others, Yun Xi's spirit sword flew out only half a zhang and suddenly stopped, hanging there motionless, and the black-haired Yun Xi was also like a mud tire wood carving at this time, and could no longer move a single inch in the air like a mud tire wood carving.
The formations around the ring were launched, and at the same time, Yun Xi's sword and Yun Xi himself were imprisoned, but Li Jian was fine, staring at all this with wide eyes and shock, just now there was a huge threat shooting towards his chest, and immediately the threat stopped halfway and was motionless, even Yun Xi was the same!
And the humming sound of the five stone pillars also reached the maximum at this time.
All the disciples in the audience looked at it blankly, and some even thought that the current situation was Li Jian's powerful means.
Tang Ping, Yan Xuan and Lu Pingchuan also looked at these, and sure enough, as Qian Chao said, the formation in the ring was launched.
And Qian Chao stared at those stone pillars intently, now it was a rare opportunity for him!
Almost at the same time as Yun Xi changed, there was a noise in the Chengguan Building, and two people rushed out of it in a hurry, the one in front was Senior Lu Suyang, and the one behind was Elder Bai Qian, Yun Luan was also anxious to see what happened to his niece, but was stopped by Bai Qian, and he came alone.
âĻâĻ
"Lingyue."
"Master."
"See?"
"Master...... Sister Yun, what the hell is going on? â
"She is enchanted, your sister Yun is narrow-minded, she can win but not lose, everything can only follow her heart and her will, as long as there is a little adversity and setback, she can't bear it, this is why the master will never accept her as a disciple in the first place, do you understand?"
"Oh......"
âĻâĻ
"I'm coming!"
Bai Qian surpassed Lu Suyang downstairs in Chengguan, but after arriving in the ring, Lu Suyang floated up and came to Yunxi's front with a soft cry, and after getting closer, staring at Yunxi's purple eyes, Lu Suyang sighed, stretched out his arm and put a palm on the top of Yunxi's head.
An astonishing scene appeared again, as Elder Lu's hand pressed on Yun Xi's heavenly spirit, as if he had poured a spoonful of water into a charcoal basin, and immediately a thick black mist evaporated out from the top of Yun Xi's head, rose upward, and then gradually dissipated, at the same time, the strange purple in Yun Xi's eyes also began to fade, and the whites of her eyes slowly reappeared, and even the dense bloodshot around her eyes was gone, but the expression on her face became more and more sluggish.
"Dangchang", the first to fall was the sword that Yun Xi shot at Li Jian, and then there was a "poof", Yun Xi's body fell from the soft couch in the air that was not high, and Bai Yan below hurriedly went over to check, and knew at a glance that Yun Xi had fainted.
At this time, the hum of the five stone pillars around the ring came to an abrupt end.
At this time, the blue light under Qian Chao's eyes disappeared, and he nodded as if he had gained something.
After doing all this, Lu Suyang looked at Li Jian next to him, Li Jian had already collected his sword at this time, and he naturally saw what happened just now, Lu Suyang nodded to Li Jian and said:
"Well, you're good."
Bai Yan had already lifted Yun Xi who was fainting and walked off the stage.
Li Jian was the only one left on the stage.
"This one, Li Jiansheng wins!" Voices rang out from the audience.
The audience was silent for a while, and then cheered and thundered!
When Li Jian stepped down, he was reminded by the monk who was in charge of presiding over the foundation before he walked over and took over a storage bag full of spirit stones, this competition Li Jian didn't expect it to end in such a situation, although Yun Xi's fall into the demon was caused by herself, but Li Jian's mood was not happy, and she walked back under everyone's gaze while sighing for Yun Xi.
âĻâĻ
There was a lot of discussion in the Chengguan Building.
Sword cultivation into the demon, just now, the elders in the Chengguan Building all know about Mu Xiufeng's "dust" and "Qing Xiu" factions a long time ago, and they also know why those monks buried on the sword mound mountain outside the sect died, even though Mu Xiufeng's sword cultivation still has the inheritance of the way to enter the demon, but the demon has long become a forbidden technique for Mu Xiufeng, and that is just their last resort, and what happened just now is obviously that the female disciple entered the demon because of the hatred and anger after losing the competition.
For sword cultivation, there are two kinds of demons, one is to enter the demon as a last resort to helpless means, easy is never used, this way can be regarded as the sword cultivation active into the demon, generally speaking, after entering the demon, if you can kill a strong enemy, the sword cultivation of the demon can still regain clarity; And the other is like Yun Xi just now, because of the lack of heart, after being strongly stimulated, he became crazy and angry, so he fell into the demon, thinking that Yun Xi must be unwilling to enter the demon, but at that time she couldn't control herself at all, so Yun Xi's demon is a kind of passive demonization, compared to the active demon, the passive demon is more dangerous, because once the demon is entered in this way, it is generally difficult for the sword cultivator to return to Qingming again, if no one rescues him, he will definitely fall forever and become a monster that only knows how to kill!
Mu Xiufeng's monks who knew some inside information were all amazed by the uniqueness of the Cold Moon Fairy's gaze at this time, no wonder she did not hesitate to offend people and did not accept Yunxi as an apprentice, I am afraid that the Cold Moon Fairy had already seen that this woman was definitely not a good sword cultivator.
Yun Luan sat in front of the window in a daze, she never expected that today would be such a result, her son was defeated ugly, but she didn't expect her niece to fall into the ring in the ring, all in full view...... Just when her thoughts were in turmoil, someone next to her called her:
"White Lady ......"
Looking up, it was Elder Sun of Mu Xiufeng.
"Elder Sun, ...... today It's ......"
"Alas, Yun Xi, this kid has talent, but it seems that his temperament is a little worse today, and she won't have any big problems in the future when Elder Lu made a move just now, but ...... After that, the kid will learn to swordsman...... I guess it's going to be difficult......"
"Alas......"
âĻâĻ
On the third floor of the Chengguan Building.
"Lingyue, I won't watch it, if you want to see it, you can see it yourself, well, there is something, you go down there to find your Senior Brother Li in a while, and tell him to go to my cave once after he disperses, and discuss the matter of his apprenticeship."
The Cold Moon Fairy only came today to watch Li Jian's competition, and now that she was no longer interested in other competitions, she got up and wanted to return to the cave.
"Master, ......" Ling Yue looked at Fairy Leng Yue with a sad face, and her eyes were full of reluctance.
Fairy Cold Moon naturally knew what this girl was thinking, and smiled slightly:
"We made a bet, and we also high-fived, you have to admit defeat."
"I admit it...... But this ...... It's a shame too! â
"Hehe, well, Master can only take a step back, I promise you, if your cultivation and means surpass Li Jian, I will immediately ask Li Jian to change his mouth and call you senior sister, but before that you are still his junior sister, and if he builds the foundation before you, the order of your senior brothers and sisters can only be determined like this and cannot be changed, understand?"
Fairy Cold Moon deliberately used this matter to beat Lingyue, so that she changed her habit of being lazy.
"Okay......" Lingyue had no choice but to agree.
âĻâĻ
Jing Jian finished watching Li Jian's competition, although he couldn't understand how Li Jian won the woman in the end, but Li Jian's means made him frightened, quietly, he looked at He Sinu, at this time he had already made up his mind, to pull this guy in, to deal with Qian Chao's five people must send more manpower, so it is necessary to let this guy also contribute.
Well, it's a big deal to give him some benefits, and I'll have to talk to this guy when I get back.
âĻâĻ
Today's competition, the most eye-catching is the one between Qian Chao and Bai Lin and Li Jian against Yunxi.
Finally, as the sun set at sunset, the monk who was in charge of presiding over the Chengguan En test under the ring loudly announced that today's competition was over and would continue tomorrow.
The crowd began to recede like a tidal wave.
When he got up, Tang Ping looked at Li Jian's dull face and asked:
"Brother Li, what's wrong with you, why are you unhappy when you win the competition?"
æįŽ says:
"I feel worthless for that Yunxi, just because of the victory or defeat of a competition, I actually forced myself to the point of falling into the devil, why bother!"
"Pity her for what she does, it's not all she finds herself." Lu Pingchuan said.
"The words are so, but ...... Enchanted ...... It's a big deal for sword cultivation, and it's not certain whether Yunxi can continue to do sword cultivation in the future, and I can't be happy in my heart. Li Jian said.
åč says:
"Brother Li, think about it, don't consider that you deliberately gave it to her, if Yunxi really defeated you on stage, wouldn't she be defeated by other people in the future, and wouldn't she fall into the devil? The most important thing is that according to her temperament, she really defeated you as she wished, and then she will definitely not continue to pester Leng Yue's predecessor but switch to other people, and she will hold a lively apprenticeship ceremony, and she will inevitably publicize this matter, which will be a great humiliation for Leng Yue's senior, and Brother Li must not want to see such a thing happen. I was resentful because of the rejection of my apprenticeship, so I began to deliberately target that senior, what about so many people who have no teacher here today, if they are all like her, should they all betray the Five Spirits Sect? It's normal for such a narrow-minded character to have today's ending, you Mu Xiufeng is the most focused on choosing disciples, we have all seen today's events, Brother Li, what do you think of this Yunxi's temperament, is it suitable for sword cultivation again? At the beginning, Leng Yue's predecessor refused to accept her as an apprentice, and he thought that he had seen through her, it must be because of this reason, if she really can't do sword cultivation in the future, it will be a good thing for her, in the qi refining stage, it is still too late to change the court, and it is really until she arrives at the foundation building before she finds that she is not suitable for the way of sword cultivation, isn't it too late at that time? So, Brother Li, you didn't hurt her today, but helped her, whether she appreciated it or not, you shouldn't regard this incident as your fault. â
Tang Ping is indeed good at persuading others, after Li Jian listened, he thought for a while and then looked up to the sky and let out a sigh, and then arched his hands at Tang Ping:
"Thank you, Miss Tang, now I feel much more comfortable."
"Why are you so polite, I'm embarrassed."
A few people were about to leave, and after turning around, one person walked behind the five people, facing Li Jian's back, "Li ...... Li ......" opened his mouth a few times but couldn't continue, and finally Yan Xuan inadvertently found Ling Yue behind them, so he said softly, and the five of them stopped and turned to look at her.
Li ...... Li ...... "Lingyue's face was flushed, and her eyes were full of tears, she was really reluctant to call this guy who didn't look down on her before and now she didn't like it."
"What is Lee, what's the matter with you?" Tang Ping said unceremoniously when she saw Lingyue, she and Lingyue had met at Yan Xuan's apprenticeship ceremony, and the two glared at each other.
"Lingyue girl," Li Jian recognized it at a glance, he had been to Leng Yue's predecessor's cave mansion, so he naturally recognized this girl who had never had a good face for herself, "Is there anything wrong?" â
Get out!
Lingyue made up her mind.
Li ...... Senior brother, Master said that after you disperse, you will go to her cave mansion to discuss what to do with your apprenticeship. â
Lingyue's face turned red as she spoke, and she immediately turned around and fled after speaking.
Lu Pingchuan was overjoyed when he heard it:
"Eh, Brother Li is going to apprentice, a good thing, a good thing!"
"Yes, Senior Leng Yue is finally going to accept Brother Li as an apprentice." Yan Xuan also said with a smile on his face.
"Congratulations, Brother Li." Qian Chao said.
Tang Ping said in wonder:
"Wait, just now Lingyue's girl called Brother Li Senior Brother Li, no, according to the order of Leng Yue's predecessors' disciples, Brother Li wants to apprentice later than Lingyue, why does she call Brother Li Senior Brother?"
Qian Chao suddenly smiled:
"You also said yesterday that this Chengguan En tried a lot of people to open a bet, but it was a bet between Qi refining and Qi refining, a bet between the foundation building and the foundation building, and the seniors of the Jiedan were also gambling with each other, so can't the predecessors of the Jiedan and the Qi refining disciples also gamble? Looking at the Lingyue girl's face just now, she was reluctant, she probably lost the bet in front of Leng Yue's seniors......
"Hah!"
âĻâĻ
Because of the large number of people, Jing Ji did not stop He Si Nu when everyone dispersed after the competition, he planned to quietly find him after a while, so as to avoid the eyes and ears of others.
However, when he found He Sinu's residence, he pounced, He Sinu was no longer in the room, and it was already dark outside, where could this guy go?
So Jing Ji waited in He Si Nu's room.
He Sinu didn't actually go far, just nearby, and just as Jing Ji pushed open his door, he was knocking softly on another door.
When she opened the door, it was Qi Ruoyuan who was dressed in a red dress, and after seeing that it was He Si Nu standing at the door, Qi Ruoyuan's eyebrows frowned slightly, and asked:
"What are you going to do?"
"Senior Sister Qi, Hua Cheng is gone." He Sinu said with some worry.
Qi Ruoyuan was slightly stunned, then smiled, stepped back, and then compared with one hand in his room and said:
"Then come in and look for it, and see if I've hidden it."
This made He Sinu enter Qi Ruoyuan's room, and he didn't dare to let outsiders listen to what he was going to say today, he said a little anxiously:
"Eh, Senior Sister Qi, no kidding, Hua Cong is indeed gone, and he didn't come back last night, so he has disappeared for a day and a half."
"Oh, what the hell is going on, you tell me." Seeing He Sinu like this, Qi Ruoyuan asked.
"Yesterday, I was looking for someone to inquire today, yesterday when it was not yet dawn, someone saw Hua Cong sneaking out quietly, until now I haven't come back, I saw it last night, and I went to Hua Cong to knock on the door, he was not in the room, and today it's dark again, he still hasn't come back, I don't know what happened." Although He Sinu is a demon king in Meng Cailou, he still knows who to ask for advice when something happens.
"I went out early yesterday morning, so ...... Did anyone else go out at that time? Qi Ruoyuan asked again.
"Yes, someone saw Jiang Zhuopu in the Lion Forest who seemed to have gone out too, and he and Hua Cheng were the Five Spirit Sect with their feet in front and behind their feet."
"Then shouldn't you ask Jiang Zhuopu, why did you come to ask me?"
"Well, there's another guy who went out with him?"
"Who...... Can't you just say it all at once? â
"I heard that the one who went out with the two of them in the end was the one from the Five Spirits Sect named Zhang Yi."
"Hua Cheng, Jiang Zhuopu, Zhang Yi, three went out and two came back, are you worried...... Hua Cheng was hurt by these two people outside? â
"yes."
"And because Zhang Yi is a well-known gentleman in the Five Spirits Sect, you are worried that it has something to do with him, so you don't dare to ask directly, so you came to me to get an idea?"
"Yes, Senior Sister Qi has always been ......"
"Okay, do the elders know about this?"
"Uh...... I don't know about that, I didn't talk about it anyway. â
"Well, if according to my words, you wait another day or two, and then go to the elders who come with you to talk about it, in case Hua Cheng comes back during this period, you don't have to ask him, understand?"
"Okay......" He Si Nu should arrive.
"And ...... Brother He, what do you want to do when you come to the Five Spirits Sect this time? Qi Ruoyuan stared at He Sinu's face with burning eyes, and the gaze that came from her forced gaze made He Sinu a little overwhelmed, "Tell the truth!" â
"Uh...... Hey...... It's ......"
"Okay, needless to say, I know, Brother He seems to want to take what he did in Meng Cailou to the Five Spirits Sect to do it, right?"
"Hey, by the way......"
"Hmph, you all have your own plans, you might as well tell you, Lou Qingyao's complexion has not been very good in the past few days, I inquired on the side to know that she also came to the Five Spirits Sect to have a plan, but unfortunately, her little bit of caution taught others to see through, not only that, but they also made a bureau outside and took her and Zong Fang in, Zong Fang, the deepest foundation in the Five Spirits Sect, don't those people all look at his face, but in front of the few people in the layout, Zong Fang has no face, Lou Qingyao asked people to fight excitedly, but she was beaten and defeated, and finally learned that they were just trying to teach her a lesson. â
"Ahh And this thing......"
"Brother He, I said this just to persuade you, this is not Meng Cailou, it is not a place where you can have no scruples, and the Five Spirits Sect is not the same as ours, no one dares to provoke you in Meng Cailou, you can do anything wrong, but in the Five Spirits Sect, even the sect doesn't care about you, let alone you, if you have something...... Hum...... Especially when what you used to do was taken by them, what do you think will happen to you? â
"This ...... Hehe, Senior Sister Qi, I haven't done anything yet, they can't do anything to me. â
When He Sinu said this, he thought of the time when Jin Zhang attacked Mei Qing, why was it so big outside the Five Spirits Sect that people could meet him, could it be that Jin Zhang made people target him? Fortunately, those people committed suicide in the end, and if they were captured, Jin Zhang probably wouldn't be as leisurely as he is now.
Qi Ruo Zheng Se said:
"It's best to be like this, put away all your thoughts, and wait obediently for a hundred years to be accepted, I have made up my mind not to go back, with me staying, it will not be a problem for you to return to Meng Cailou, in fact, if you stay, you will be unlucky, you also know what your reputation is, how can those people who are not afraid of the sect put you in their eyes, compared to Meng Cailou's carefreeness, do you want to live a fearful and restrained life in the Five Spirits Sect? Listen to my advice, if you are in peace in the Five Spirits Sect, don't make any more troubles, stay away from those people, and it is only right that you can go back with the elders when the time comes. â
He Si Nu listened to these words, he didn't plan to stay in the Five Spirits Sect, and now Hua Cheng is gone, although it is not a long time, but he does not know whether he is alive or dead, plus the Jing Ji in the Five Spirits Sect is a sinister and resourceful guy at a glance, and it seems that it is best to return to Meng Cailou honestly, so he said:
"Thank you, Senior Sister Qi, I understand, I will do it."
"Well, as for Hua Cong, he liked to be mysterious and sneaky when he was in Meng Cailou, you probably didn't know what he was busy with at that time, I didn't know, and I didn't bother to know, this time he might come back by himself, or something really happened, but remember, that's his business, it has nothing to do with you, it's a big deal to hand it over to the elders to deal with, don't do it."
"Yes, I listened."
Returning from Qi Ruoyuan's residence, He Sinu pushed open his door and saw Jing Ji sitting in the room.
Jing Jian got up with a smile and said:
"Brother He, I've been waiting for you for a long time......"
âĻâĻ
It was on this night, in a certain cave in Bibo Pond, Elder Bai Yan finally waited for this day, and he used Bai Gan's second failure as an example to persuade his Taoist companion Yun Luan, and the teaching of Bai Lin in the future was completely done by Bai Gan, Yun Luan must not interfere, and at the same time, Yun Luan was a high-level cultivator after all, and he just took the opportunity to make a hard work to be able to cast a golden pill.
As for Yun Xi, Yun Luan personally wrote a letter explaining the origin of the matter, and then Bai Qian found someone to send it to the Yun family overnight, and the Yun family would come to discuss whether Yun Xi would continue to stay in the Five Spirits Sect or return to the Yun family and others to come.
One more thing to say here, after Elder Bai Gen personally disciplined his son, Bai Lin was really different from before, although the foundation building was later than the five people of Qian Chao, but this Bai Gongzi still had his place in the Five Spirits Sect in the future, and it was not in vain that Elder Bai's hard work was not wasted, and in the story after the five people of Qian Chao built the foundation, Bai Lin would also appear, and then continue his story.
Still on this night, it is still the blue wave pool of Shuiyun Valley, and in the cave mansion of Tang Bo's predecessors, a conversation between the old and the young is going on.
"Sixth grandfather?"
"Hmm."
"What the hell am I going to compete with that senior's disciple?"
"You'll know when the time comes."
"So, how much benefit can you get if I win on stage?"
"Hey, you kid, why is your mind full of these, the old man asked you to take the stage to see what your methods are, you didn't brag a lot before, what's the matter, you're afraid, you're worried that you'll be exposed as soon as you come on stage, isn't it?"
"Come less, you must be gambling with others on my test with others, just say it......"
"Don't think about it!"
"I want half!"
"What! Hey, don't you mess around, okay? â
"Okay, anyway, I asked my master, she said it's all your idea, if you really don't pull out a dime, hum, then I will deliberately lose in front of everyone on the stage, anyway, I'm not afraid of being embarrassed, it depends on whether you feel distressed or not......"
"Alas, you little girl, it's really a headache, I said it, how can the old man bet on your wins and losses with others? Well, if you win, the old man will naturally have a reward for you, okay? â
"I want half!"
"Too much, too much, don't be too greedy!"
"Hmph, you said you didn't take me to gamble with others!"
âĻâĻ
Also under this night, Qian Chao quietly came to Fan Ji's cave.
After closing the door, Feng You walked out from behind the screen and said to Qian Chao:
"Hey, you guys have miscalculated, today you and that Li Jian performed too well on stage, Jing Jian seems to be a little uneasy in his eyes, I look at him and seems to be planning to pull He Si Nu in to deal with you together......"
